United Parcel Service;  banks and leasing  companies such as  The CIT Group  and
International  Air Leases; utilities  and industrial users  such as Commonwealth
Edison, Dow Chemical and  Southern California Gas;  and military and  government
programs,  such  as those  involving the  United  States government,  Boeing and
Lockheed Martin.  Greenwich's  principal  engine repair,  overhaul  and  testing
facilities  are located at Miami  International Airport, Miami, Florida; Bradley
International Airport, East Granby, Connecticut; JFK International Airport,  New
York,  New York; and Westover  Airport, Chicopee, Massachusetts. Greenwich's net
sales have increased  from $75.8  million in fiscal  1991 to  $196.3 million  in
fiscal 1995.
 
THE AVIALL BUSINESS
 
    The  Aviall  Business is  the leading  independent  provider of  gas turbine
aircraft engine maintenance  and engine components  repair services. The  Aviall
Business  provides repair and overhaul services  for gas turbine engines used to
power Boeing 727, 737, 747 and 767; McDonnell Douglas DC-9, DC-10, MD-11,  MD-80
and  MD-90; and Airbus A-300, A-319, A-320, A-321, A-330 and A-340 aircraft, and
also services turboprop engines predominantly used by regional air carriers. The
primary customer  base  of  the  Aviall Business  includes  major  and  regional
commercial  air and freight  and package carriers such  as America West, British
 
                                       3
<PAGE>
Airways, Continental Airlines,  Federal Express, Southwest  Airlines and  USAir.
The  engine repair and overhaul operations of the Aviall Business are located in
Dallas, Texas; Fort Worth,  Texas; and Prestwick,  Scotland, and its  components
repair operations are located in McAllen, Texas.
 
    Aviall's  engine repair  and overhaul operations  date back to  1932, and in
1955, it became the  world's first major independent  gas turbine engine  repair
facility.  These operations have been owned  by Aviall since Aviall was spun-off
from Ryder System, Inc. ("Ryder") in  1993. The Aviall Business' net sales  have
increased  to $504.8  million in  1995 from $482.9  million in  1993. The Aviall
Business has spent in excess of $84.0 million over the last five calendar  years
to  build state-of-the-art engine repair and  overhaul facilities and to develop
programs designed to provide the fastest overhaul turnaround time in the  engine
repair  and  overhaul  industry.  However,  its  operating  income  has declined
significantly  over  this  period.  These  declines  in  profitability  can   be
attributed  to a  variety of factors,  including unfavorable  pricing granted to
certain  customers,  inefficiencies   in  its   overhaul  operations,   expenses
associated   with  reengineering  its  facilities,  and  significant  costs  and
penalties on specific  contracts where the  Aviall Business was  unable to  meet
contractual requirements.
 
THE INDUSTRY
 
    The  Company believes  that the  worldwide market  for aircraft  gas turbine
engine repair and overhaul services is approximately $6.5 billion. Growth of the
engine repair and  overhaul market is  primarily driven by  the activity of  the
commercial aviation industry. Such market is projected to grow over the next ten
years  at an annual rate  of 4% in North America,  8% in the Asia-Pacific region
and 6% in Latin America. Approximately 55% of this market is currently  serviced
by  operators of the  engines, principally major  commercial airlines, for their
own engine needs. The remaining gas  turbine engines are serviced by  commercial
airlines,  the original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") and by a limited number
of independent operators, including the  Company. Commercial airlines, OEMs  and
independent  operators compete  on the ability  to provide  services tailored to
each customer's requirements, turnaround times, breadth of services offered  and
price.
 
    The  repair and  overhaul of aircraft  engines is  regulated by governmental
agencies throughout  the world,  including the  Federal Aviation  Administration
(the  "FAA")  and the  British  Civil Aviation  Authority  (the "BCAA"),  and is
supplemented by  guidelines established  by OEMs  which generally  require  that
engines  be overhauled and certain engine components and parts be replaced after
a certain number  of flight  hours or  cycles (take-offs  and landings).  Engine
maintenance costs can range from $100,000 for certain repairs to as much as $1.5
million or more for a complete engine overhaul.
 
    Certain  trends within  the aviation industry  favoring independent overhaul
providers include:
 
    - OUTSOURCING OF COMMERCIAL ENGINE SERVICES.  In order to lower costs,  many
      passenger  airlines  and  freight  and  package  carriers  are  seeking to
      outsource their  engine  servicing.  Airlines  such  as  British  Airways,
      Continental Airlines, Southwest Airlines and USAir currently utilize third
      parties,  and other  airlines are expected  to follow  as labor agreements
      allow.
 
    - OUTSOURCING OF MILITARY MAINTENANCE  SERVICES.  It  is estimated that  the
      U.S.  military market is  greater than the  commercial aircraft market for
      engine and  aircraft  maintenance and  related  services. The  closing  of
      military bases and reductions in personnel have resulted in an increase in
      the demand for these services in the commercial marketplace. As additional
      bases are closed or realigned, this trend is expected to continue.
 
    - INCREASED  AIR TRAVEL.  It is estimated that world air travel will grow by
      70% by 2005 and the number  of passenger and freight and package  delivery
      aircraft  in  service will  increase  by 47%,  which  should substantially
      increase the demand for engine repair and overhaul services.
 
    - START-UP AIRLINES.  Deregulation  of the aviation  industry in the  United
      States  and the European  Community, relatively low  barriers to entry and
      excess capacity in equipment, as well as increased consumer demand for air
      travel, has led to  the emergence of several  low cost start-up  airlines.
      Because  start-up airlines generally  do not invest  in the infrastructure
      necessary to service their  aircraft, many outsource  all of their  engine
      repair   and   overhaul   services.  Start-up   airlines   also   tend  to
 
                                       4
<PAGE>
      use  older  aircraft   with  engines  that   require  greater   servicing.
      Consequently, the Company believes that the growth of start-up airlines is
      increasing demand for independent engine repair and overhaul services.
 
    - GROWTH OF DEMAND FOR AIR FREIGHT AND PACKAGE DELIVERY.  The demand for air
      freight  and package  delivery is projected  to grow at  an average annual
      rate of 7% over the next 20 years. This trend is expected to result in the
      continued growth of established carriers  such as Airborne Express,  Emery
      Worldwide  Airlines, Federal  Express and  United Parcel  Service, and has
      caused the emergence  of new cargo  carriers such as  Atlas Air and  Polar
      Air. Many of these carriers also use older aircraft, increasing the demand
      for engine repair and overhaul services.
 
    - LEASING COMPANIES.  The number of aircraft owned by financial institutions
      or  leasing companies,  many of  which use  independent engine  repair and
      overhaul services, has grown from just  over 200 aircraft in 1986 to  over
      1,000 aircraft in 1995.
 
THE AVIALL ACQUISITION
 
    On  April 19, 1996, Greenwich entered into a definitive agreement to acquire
the gas turbine engine service and  engine components repair business of  Aviall
for  a  purchase price  estimated  to be  approximately  $239.0 million  (net of
assumed liabilities). The purchase price of the Aviall Business, $5.6 million in
estimated expenses related to the Aviall Acquisition and the New Credit Facility
and amounts needed to repay certain existing indebtedness of $55.3 million  will
be  financed through approximately $80.4 million of net proceeds from the Common
Stock Offering,  approximately  $145.1  million  of net  proceeds  of  the  Note
Offering and approximately $74.4 million from the Initial Drawdown. In the event
that the Common Stock Offering is not consummated, but the Note Offering and the
New  Credit Facility  are consummated, Greenwich  will pay $80.4  million of the
purchase price for the Aviall Business by the delivery of up to $55.0 million in
shares of its Class B  Common Stock to Aviall, and  the balance will be paid  in
cash through additional borrowings under the New Credit Facility.
 
COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
 
    The Company believes that its principal competitive advantages are:
 
    - WORLDWIDE LEADER.  The Company will be the world's largest independent gas
      turbine  engine repair and overhaul company and will have major facilities
      strategically located in the United States and in Europe. In addition, the
      Company believes that its base of  over 500 customers will be the  largest
      and  most diversified of  all independent providers  of gas turbine repair
      and overhaul services.
 
    - FULL SERVICE PROVIDER.  Upon  consummation of the Aviall Acquisition,  the
      Company  will provide repair and overhaul  services on 14 engine lines and
      50 engine models, supporting the  world's five leading gas turbine  engine
      manufacturers  -- CFM International,  General Electric, International Aero
      Engines, Pratt &  Whitney and Rolls  Royce. The Company  believes that  no
      other   independent  overhaul   company  or   OEM  has   this  breadth  of
      capabilities.
 
    - EFFICIENT PROVIDER.  The Company believes that it will continue to provide
      its customers with  a high level  of service at  competitive prices, as  a
      result  of  existing  and  anticipated  productivity  of  its  work force,
      efficient production techniques and the  ability to acquire inventory  and
      fixed  assets  at costs  which will  improve  combined profit  margins and
      reduce the cost of entry into new product lines.
 
    - STRONG ENTREPRENEURIAL MANAGEMENT TEAM.  Greenwich's operating income  has
      grown  at  a compound  annual  growth rate  of  43% since  1993.  In 1994,
      Greenwich acquired  the  assets of  Gas  Turbine Corporation  East  Granby
      Division  (the "GTC Division"),  a company with  revenues of approximately
      83% of  Greenwich's revenues  at the  time of  the acquisition.  Greenwich
      successfully  integrated  the  GTC  Division  and  improved  its operating
      performance and  profitability through  the  reduction of  personnel,  the
      elimination  of duplicate functions, the  rationalization of product lines
      and the realignment of overhaul services among Greenwich's facilities.

COMPANY STRATEGY
 
    INTEGRATION PLAN
    The Company's strategy following  the Aviall Acquisition  is to improve  the
profitability  of the Aviall Business, enhance services offered to the Company's
customers and to maintain Greenwich's historical efficiency. The Company intends
to implement this strategy by:
 
    - ACHIEVING COST REDUCTIONS.  The Aviall Acquisition will enable the Company
      to eliminate  duplicative  functions  currently being  performed  by  both
      Greenwich and the Aviall Business in the areas of administration, finance,
      sales, marketing, purchasing, technical and field services, and management
      information  systems ("MIS  systems"). The  Company will  also eliminate a
      portion  of   certain  other   corporate  overhead   charges  which   have
      historically been allocated by Aviall to the Aviall Business. In addition,
      the  Company will benefit by having Greenwich utilize the Aviall Business'
      components  repair  facility  to  perform  work  that  Greenwich  formerly
      contracted out to third parties.
 
    - IMPROVING  OPERATING EFFICIENCIES.   Greenwich believes that  it is one of
      the most efficient  providers of  gas turbine engine  repair and  overhaul
      services.  The Company intends to achieve greater production and operating
      efficiencies by realigning engine repair  and overhaul services among  its
      several  facilities. The Company also intends to integrate the MIS systems
      which have  been successfully  utilized  by Greenwich  with those  of  the
      Aviall  Business. These MIS systems are  expected to provide the Company's
      management with the ability to monitor operating costs utilizing real-time
      data while enhancing the information flow to the Company's customers.
 
    - IMPROVING  CONTRACTUAL   PERFORMANCE.     Greenwich  believes   that   its
      experienced  and entrepreneurial  management team  will enable  the Aviall
      Business to improve engine turnaround time and reduce related  contractual
      penalties  through increased productivity of the Aviall Business' domestic
      workforce and improved operating  and production efficiencies. The  Aviall
      Business  incurred contractual penalties of  approximately $6.2 million in
      1995, primarily for late deliveries on scheduled engine overhauls.
 
    STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES
    Upon integration  of  Greenwich  and  the  Aviall  Business,  the  Company's
long-term  strategic objectives will  be to improve  its profitability, maintain
its position as the world's largest  independent provider of gas turbine  engine
repair and overhaul services, and accelerate its growth. The Company's strategic
objectives may be summarized as follows:
 
    - SERVICE   NEW  ENGINE  LINES  AND  MODELS.    Greenwich  has  successfully
      implemented a strategy to increase the  number of engine lines and  models
      serviced  by  its facilities,  thereby  creating new  market opportunities
      while offering  its customers  one-stop shopping  capability. The  Company
      will continue this strategy and seek to develop servicing capabilities for
      additional  high by-pass and high horsepower  gas turbine engines. Many of
      the Company's  existing  customers  use  engines  for  which  the  Company
      currently   has  no   servicing  capabilities  and   development  of  such
      capabilities would present  the Company with  opportunities to expand  the
      services provided to these customers.
 
    - OFFER ADDITIONAL SERVICES TO EXISTING CUSTOMERS.  Many of the engine lines
      and  models serviced by the Aviall  Business are not currently serviced by
      Greenwich and many of  the engine lines and  models serviced by  Greenwich
      are  not currently serviced  by the Aviall  Business. The Company believes
      that  opportunities  exist  to  provide  services  to  customers  of  both
      Greenwich  and the Aviall Business for  engine lines and models previously
      serviced by competitors. Continental Airlines  is the only major  customer
      serviced by both Greenwich and the Aviall Business.
 
    - SERVICE AERODERIVATIVE ENGINE LINES.  Certain of the engine lines serviced
      by  the Company  for its airline  and cargo  customers have aeroderivative
      engine  lines  used  in  industrial,  marine  and  military  applications.
      Greenwich  has been successful in  providing service to the aeroderivative
      gas turbine engine  market, resulting  in sales growth  in these  services
      from $10.5 million in 1992 to $19.0 million in 1995.
 
    - EXPAND  SERVICE TO  REGIONAL CARRIERS.   The Aviall Business  is a leading
      provider of engine repair and overhaul services for the PW-100, an  engine
      predominantly  used by regional  carriers. The Company  believes that this
      market has the potential for substantial growth and that the Company  will
      be well-positioned to capture a larger share of this market.
 
    The  Company maintains  its principal  executive offices  at 4590  N.W. 36th
Street, Building 23, Miami International Airport, Miami, Florida, 33122, and its
telephone number is (305) 526-7000.

</TABLE>
 
- ------------------------------
(1) Historical financial information  presented for the  Aviall Business is  for
    the year ended December 31, 1995.
 
(2)  For the  purpose of  determining the  ratio of  earnings to  fixed charges,
    earnings consist  of  income  before income  taxes,  change  in  accounting,
    extraordinary  items and fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest on
    indebtedness, including,  if  any, the  amortization  of debt  issue  costs,
    accretion of debt discount, interest expense accrued in accordance with EITF
    Issue   No.  86-15  and  one-third  of   rental  expense  (which  is  deemed
    representative of  the interest  factor therein).  Earnings for  the  Aviall
    Business  were insufficient to cover fixed  charges in the historical fiscal
    years ended December 31, 1994  and 1995 and for  the six months ended  March
    31,  1996 by  $395, $7,066 and  $55,046 (including  $39,567 of restructuring
    costs), respectively.
 
(3) EBITDA represents net income (loss)  before the cumulative effect of  change
    in   accounting  plus   provisions  for  income   taxes,  interest  expense,
    depreciation and amortization, restructuring  costs, and any charge  related
    to any premium or penalty paid in connection with redeeming and retiring any
    indebtedness  prior  to  its stated  maturity.  While EBITDA  should  not be
    construed as a substitute for income  from operations, net income (loss)  or
    cash  flows from operating  activities in analyzing  the Company's operating
    performance, financial position  and cash  flows, the  Company has  included
    EBITDA  because  it is  commonly used  by certain  investors to  analyze and
    compare companies  on  the  basis of  operating  performance,  leverage  and
    liquidity, and to determine the Company's ability to service debt.
 
(4)  Historical financial information presented for  the Aviall Business for the
    six months ended  March 31, 1995  and 1996 includes  the three months  ended
    December  31, 1994  and 1995,  respectively, which  is also  included in the
    summary historical  financial information  of the  Aviall Business  for  the
    fiscal years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively.
 
(5)  Includes  $7,075  in  revenues derived  from  the  de-emphasized structural
    aircraft services business.

                                  RISK FACTORS
 
    In  evaluating an  investment in  the Class  B Common  Stock offered hereby,
prospective investors should carefully  consider the following factors  together
with the other information in this Prospectus.
 
    SUBSTANTIAL  LEVERAGE; RESTRICTIVE  COVENANTS.   On a  pro forma  basis, the
Company's total indebtedness on March 31,  1996 would have been $239.6  million,
and  the ratio of total debt to total  capitalization as of March 31, 1996 would
have been 0.65:1 ($264.9 million and 0.71:1, respectively, if the Company elects
to issue Class B Common Stock as  partial payment of the purchase price for  the
Aviall  Acquisition  in lieu  of consummating  the  Common Stock  Offering). The
consequences of such leverage  include, but are not  limited to, the  following:
(i)  the Company  will have significantly  increased cash  requirements for debt
service; (ii) financial and other  covenants and operating restrictions  imposed
by  the terms  of the  New Credit Facility  and the  indenture (the "Indenture")
entered into in connection  with the Note Offering  will require the Company  to
meet  certain financial tests and will limit, among other things, its ability to
borrow additional funds or to dispose of  assets; (iii) the Company may be at  a
competitive  disadvantage  if  the Company  is  more highly  leveraged  than its
competitors; (iv)  a  downturn  in  the Company's  business  will  have  a  more
significant  impact on its results  of operations and (v)  the Company will have
approximately $86.0  million of  indebtedness ranking  pari passu  to the  Notes
which  will  be secured  by certain  assets of  the Company.  The Notes  will be
effectively subordinated  to all  secured  indebtedness of  the Company  to  the
extent  of the assets securing  such indebtedness. If the  Company is in default
under the New Credit Facility, the lenders thereunder could foreclose upon  such
collateral,  which would have a material adverse effect upon the Company and the
holders of Notes.  The Company's ability  to meet its  debt service  obligations
will  depend upon its ability to successfully integrate the Aviall Business with
existing operations and other factors, many of which are not within its control,
including fluctuating interest rates and  general economic conditions. See  "The
Aviall Acquisition," "Concurrent Transactions," "Use of Proceeds," "Management's
Discussion  and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Pro
Forma  Liquidity   and   Capital   Resources"  and   "Description   of   Certain
Indebtedness."
 
    RISKS  OF BUSINESS INTEGRATION.  There can  be no assurance that the Company
will be able to  integrate the operations of  Greenwich and the Aviall  Business
successfully.  The full benefits of a  business combination of Greenwich and the
Aviall  Business  will  require  the  integration  of  administrative,  finance,
purchasing,  engineering, sales and marketing organizations; the coordination of
production efforts; and the implementation of appropriate operational, financial
and management systems and controls. Such  benefits will also be dependent  upon
an  increase in the productivity of the workforce of the Aviall Business and the
ability to meet  performance requirements under  specific contracts. These  will
require  substantial attention from the senior management of Greenwich which has
limited experience integrating the  operations of acquired companies.  Greenwich
also  has  limited  experience  in conducting  foreign  operations  such  as the
operations of the Aviall Business in  Prestwick, Scotland. If the Company  fails
to  successfully  integrate Greenwich  and  the Aviall  Business,  the Company's
business, results  of operations  and financial  condition would  be  materially
adversely  affected.  In addition,  the Unaudited  Pro Forma  Combined Financial
Information contains  adjustments  relating to  the  integration of  the  Aviall
Business.  Although these adjustments  are based upon  available information and
certain assumptions the  Company considers  reasonable as  of the  date of  this
Prospectus,  actual amounts could differ from those set forth therein. Moreover,
no assurance can be given that the anticipated impact of the integration of  the
Aviall Business upon the Company's financial condition and results of operations
as  presented in such pro forma information will be as presented. See "Unaudited
Pro Forma Combined Financial Information."
 
    DECLINING OPERATING INCOME  OF AVIALL BUSINESS.   During each  of the  three
years  ended December 31,  1993, 1994 and  1995, operating income  of the Aviall
Business was $32.4 million, $17.8 million and $12.2 million, respectively.  This
decline in operating income was primarily due to unprofitable results at certain
of  the Aviall Business'  domestic engine service  facilities, which the Company
believes can  be  attributed to  a  variety of  factors,  including  unfavorable
pricing granted to certain customers, inefficiencies in its overhaul operations,
high  operating  costs, contractual  penalties for  failing to  meet agreed-upon
turnaround times  on  completion of  engine  services and  unfavorable  customer
contracts. A combination of price pressure from key commercial airline customers
and   inefficiencies  or  high  operating  costs  could  contribute  to  further
 
                                       10
<PAGE>
declines in  operating income  or losses  from certain  of the  domestic  engine
service  operations  purchased from  Aviall, as  well as  erosion of  the profit
contributions from the Company's other operating facilities. No assurance can be
given that the cost-saving and other measures intended to be implemented by  the
Company will be sufficient to enable these facilities to increase their level of
profitability or to operate profitably in the future. A substantial reduction in
anticipated  consolidated earnings as a result  of the occurrence of losses from
consolidated operations of the  Company could result in  defaults under the  New
Credit  Facility, the  Notes or its  8% Convertible  Subordinated Debentures due
2000 (the "Debentures"). Any such default  would have a material adverse  effect
upon   the  Company's  business  and   financial  condition.  See  "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations --  Pro
Forma Liquidity and Capital Resources."
 
   
    DEPENDENCE  ON KEY CUSTOMERS.  The Company  is dependent upon certain of its
principal  customers.  USAir,  Continental   Airlines  and  Southwest   Airlines
accounted  for approximately  19%, 17% and  12%, respectively, of  the net sales
derived by  the  Aviall Business,  and  the top  five  customers of  the  Aviall
Business  accounted for approximately 59% of  its combined net sales, during the
year ended December 31, 1995. Continental Airlines and Emery Worldwide  Airlines
accounted for approximately 18% and 10%, respectively, of Greenwich's net sales,
and  the  top five  customers of  Greenwich accounted  for approximately  44% of
Greenwich's net sales,  during fiscal 1995.  On a pro  forma basis,  Continental
Airlines  would have accounted for approximately 17% of the Company's net sales,
and the top five customers of the Company would have accounted for approximately
47% of the Company's net sales in fiscal 1995. The Aviall Business is  currently
seeking to renegotiate or extend certain long-term agreements under which engine
repair  and overhaul  services are being  provided to certain  of its customers,
including the  agreement  with USAir  which  will  expire in  October  1996.  In
addition,   a  significant  engine  repair   and  overhaul  agreement  with  CFM
International, Inc.  will  expire  on  December  31,  1996  unless  renewed.  No
assurance  can be given  that any or  all of these  agreements will be modified,
renewed or extended on  terms which are commercially  favorable to the  Company.
The  loss of  any one  or more  of the  Company's major  customers could  have a
material adverse  effect  on  the  Company.  See  "Management's  Discussion  and
Analysis  of  Financial Condition  and Results  of  Operations --  Overview" and
"Business -- Customers."
    
 
    UNFAVORABLE AGREEMENTS  AND PENALTIES.   The  pricing and  related terms  of
certain  of  the Aviall  Business'  long-term agreements  with  major customers,
including penalties for  failure to achieve  agreed-upon turnaround times,  have
contributed to the significant declines in profitability of the Aviall Business.
The  Aviall  Business suffered  turnaround time  penalties under  certain engine
services agreements of approximately $700,000 and $6.2 million in 1994 and 1995,
respectively. Agreements, which represented net sales aggregating  approximately
$62.8  million in 1995  (12% of net  sales) of the  Aviall Business, provide for
payments based upon revenue per  flight hour of a  customer's entire fleet of  a
specified   engine  type.  Under  such   agreements,  commonly  referred  to  as
"power-by-the-hour" agreements, the Aviall Business performs required repair and
overhaul services  for the  engines covered  by such  agreement and  receives  a
specified fee for each hour those engines are operated. Profitability under this
type  of agreement is dependent upon accurate estimates, including the number of
hours to be flown and the extent of  repairs required to be made to the  engines
covered   by  the  agreement.   The  Company  believes   that  certain  of  such
"power-by-the-hour" agreements  contributed negative  cash  flow and  low  gross
margins  to the Aviall Business  in its fiscal year  ended December 31, 1995. In
December 1995, the Aviall Business adjusted its estimates under certain of these
agreements and recorded a charge to  earnings of $5.2 million. No assurance  can
be  given that the adjusted estimates are  accurate or that the Company will not
incur similar charges  or experience  negative cash  flow or  low gross  margins
under  these agreements. Furthermore, no assurance can be given that the Company
will be able to  improve operating efficiencies  sufficiently or to  renegotiate
more  favorable  terms under  such agreements  so  as to  enable the  Company to
improve its  overall profit  margins and  avoid continuing  penalties or  losses
under certain of these agreements.
 
    COMPETITION.   The  Company is subject  to intense  competition in providing
engine repair  and overhaul  services from  certain of  the major  domestic  and
international  commercial airlines, OEMs and  other independent service centers,
certain of  which  competitors  have substantially  greater  capital  and  other
resources
 
                                       11
<PAGE>
than  the Company. OEMs may also link the sale of aircraft engines with packages
providing for financing  terms and  repair and  overhaul services  for both  new
engines  and engines  which are  currently in  use. See  "Industry Overview" and
"Business -- Competition."
 
    POTENTIAL LABOR ISSUES.   The Aviall Business located  at the Dallas,  Texas
engine  service facility and the Fort Worth,  Texas repair and test facility are
represented by separate unions. Under the  terms of the Purchase Agreement  with
Aviall,  neither  Greenwich  nor  the Company  will  assume  Aviall's collective
bargaining agreements with such unions. The Company intends to offer  employment
to those hourly employees of the Dallas and Fort Worth facilities as the Company
requires  and  deems  qualified. Recently,  proposals  were made  to  the unions
representing the Dallas and Fort  Worth employees to accept certain  contractual
concessions.  Although the concessions were ratified by the Fort Worth employees
subject to the approval of the  Dallas employees, the Dallas employees  rejected
such  proposals. Following consummation of  the Aviall Acquisition, no assurance
can be given that the Company will be able to initially hire a sufficient number
of hourly employees upon acceptable terms  to meet its immediate needs, or  that
the  Company would not  be subject to  labor disruption or  other labor disputes
which could materially  adversely affect operations.  In addition, no  assurance
can  be given that, if  the Company elects to reduce  or shut down operations in
Dallas or Fort Worth, the relocation of engine services to its other  facilities
will be accepted by major customers, or that such relocation can be accomplished
without  significant  expense  or  disruption of  operations.  See  "Business --
Employees."
 
    DEPENDENCE ON KEY SUPPLIERS.  The  Company is dependent on certain  domestic
and  international OEMs for many of the key parts and components for the engines
which it services.  Many of  these OEMs maintain  their own  gas turbine  engine
overhaul  and repair facilities  and compete with the  Company for business from
major commercial airlines  and other  customers. Although  the Company  believes
that  these manufacturers  will continue  to adhere  to their  current policy of
supporting qualified  independently-owned  engine service  providers,  if  their
policy  should change  or if  certain OEMs  require scarce  parts for  their own
overhaul and repair operations, the Company may incur shortages in the supply of
required parts and components. An inability by the Company to maintain access to
parts and  components on  commercially reasonable  terms would  have a  material
adverse  effect on  the Company's business,  financial condition  and results of
operations.
 
    DEPENDENCE ON KEY  MANAGEMENT.   The Company's operations  are dependent  in
part  upon the expertise of certain key  employees. Loss of the services of such
employees, particularly  Eugene  P. Conese,  the  Chairman and  Chief  Executive
Officer,  or Eugene P.  Conese, Jr., the President  and Chief Operating Officer,
could adversely affect the Company. The  Company does not maintain key man  life
insurance for any of its executive officers.
 
    CONTROL  BY PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS.  As of March 31, 1996, Eugene P. Conese,
the Chairman of the Board  and Chief Executive Officer  of the Company, and  his
wife  own of record and  beneficially an aggregate of 55%  of the Class A Common
Stock and  55% of  the Class  B  Common Stock  and Eugene  P. Conese,  Jr.,  the
President  and  Chief  Operating Officer  of  the  Company, owns  of  record and
beneficially 3% of the Company's outstanding Class A Common Stock and 3% of  the
Class  B Common Stock. Upon consummation of the Common Stock Offering, Eugene P.
Conese  and  members  of  his  immediate  family  will  own  in  the   aggregate
approximately  58% of the outstanding Class A  Common Stock and will control all
decisions on matters  submitted to  a vote  of the  Company's stockholders.  See
"Principal and Selling Stockholders."
 
    DEFENSE  SPENDING REDUCTIONS.  Approximately 14%  and 13% of Greenwich's net
sales in fiscal 1995 and for the six months ended March 31, 1996,  respectively,
were  derived from  services provided for  the United States  military and other
domestic  and  foreign  government  agencies,   either  directly  or  to   prime
contractors under military and government contracts. On a pro forma basis, sales
to military and government agencies would have accounted for approximately 6% of
sales  in fiscal 1995.  To date, reductions in  the federal government's defense
spending have not resulted in  a decrease in net  sales from military and  other
governmental  programs. The  Company believes  that recent  closings of military
aircraft bases and reductions in personnel  may increase the number of  military
gas  turbine engines available for servicing by independent contractors, such as
the Company, although no  assurance can be given  in this regard.  Nevertheless,
the
 
                                       12
<PAGE>
Company  cannot predict whether reductions  in defense and governmental spending
in general will  adversely affect  the Company's  results of  operations in  the
future. See "Business -- Engine Services -- Government Programs."
 
    AIRLINE  INDUSTRY  RISKS.   In  past years,  the  airline industry  has been
adversely affected by a  number of factors, including  increased fuel and  labor
costs  and intense  price competition.  Several passenger  airline carriers have
encountered significant  financial difficulties,  resulting in  certain of  such
carriers  ceasing to conduct business or seeking protection from creditors under
the federal bankruptcy laws. Certain  passenger airline carriers have  continued
to  operate  under  the  protection  of the  federal  bankruptcy  laws  and have
continued to provide business to engine  service providers such as the  Company.
However,  in the  event that  any of  the Company's  customers cease  to conduct
business or seek protection  from creditors under  the federal bankruptcy  laws,
the  Company would be classified  as a general unsecured  creditor to the extent
that it does not have a priority mechanic's lien on the engines of such customer
being serviced by the Company and may be forced to incur substantial losses from
the write-off  of  accounts  receivable.  The  loss  of  any  of  the  Company's
significant  customers could result in a decrease in the Company's net sales and
could have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business. In addition, a
number of the historical customers of Greenwich are smaller domestic and foreign
passenger airlines, freight and package carriers, charter airlines and  aircraft
leasing  companies, which may  also suffer from  the factors adversely affecting
the airline industry generally. As a result, certain of the Company's  customers
may  pose  credit  risks to  the  Company.  The Company's  inability  to collect
receivables from a large engine repair, refurbishment or overhaul project  could
adversely affect its results of operations for a particular period. Although the
bad  debt losses of  both Greenwich and  the Aviall Business  have averaged less
than 1% of net sales in each of their respective last three fiscal years,  there
can  be no assurance that  such bad debt losses  will not materially increase in
the future.
 
    GOVERNMENT REGULATION.    FAA and  BCAA  regulations require  that  aircraft
engines  serviced in the United  States and the United  Kingdom be serviced by a
certified provider such as the Company. The Company is also required to maintain
certifications from other foreign  governments in order  to service their  local
aircraft.  Although the Company believes that it possesses all required domestic
and foreign governmental certifications, including FAA certifications  entitling
it  to service all gas turbine aircraft  engine lines and models in its domestic
facilities, the revocation or limitation of its FAA or BCAA certification  would
have  a material adverse  effect on its operations.  See "Business -- Government
Regulation."
 
    ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION.  The Company's business operations and  facilities
are  subject to a number of federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws
and regulations, including requirements  under the Clean  Air Act Amendments  of
1990  relating to the discharge of air pollutants into the environment. Although
the Company  believes  that  its  operations  and  facilities  are  in  material
compliance  with all  federal, state, local  and foreign  environmental laws and
regulations, no assurance can be given that future changes either in such  laws,
regulations  or  interpretations  thereof  or in  the  nature  of  the Company's
operations will not require the  Company to make significant additional  capital
expenditures  in  order to  effect  compliance. See  "Business  -- Environmental
Matters."
 
    PRODUCT LIABILITY  RISKS.   The  Company  currently has  in  force  aviation
products,  premises  and  hangarkeepers insurance,  which  the  Company believes
provides coverage in  amounts and on  terms that are  generally consistent  with
industry  practice. The  Company also  has insurance  coverage for  liability in
connection with the industrial or marine  gas turbine engines that it  services.
To  date, the Company  has not experienced any  significant uninsured or insured
aviation-related claims and has not  experienced any material product  liability
claims  related  to  its industrial  and  marine engine  services.  However, the
Company is subject to a material loss to the extent that a claim is made against
the Company which is not covered in whole or in part by insurance and for  which
third-party indemnification is not available.
 
    NO  VOTING RIGHTS  OF CLASS B  COMMON STOCKHOLDERS.   The shares  of Class B
Common Stock have  no voting rights  except as required  by law. Therefore,  the
holders  of shares  of Class B  Common Stock will  have no ability  to elect any
directors and no vote on such  significant issues as whether to dissolve,  merge
or  sell the assets of the Company.  Prospective investors in the Class B Common
Stock should note that the Company
 
                                       13
<PAGE>
can issue additional  voting shares  of Common  Stock at  any time.  One of  the
primary  effects of  having two  classes of  common stock  with different voting
rights will be that the  principal stockholders of the  Company, and all of  the
holders of Class A Common Stock, will retain voting control of the Company after
the   Common  Stock  Offering.  See  "--  Control  by  Principal  Stockholders,"
"Principal and Selling Stockholders" and "Description of Capital Stock."
 
    CERTAIN EFFECTS  OF  AUTHORIZED  BUT  UNISSUED STOCK;  DELAWARE  LAW.    The
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock are available
for future issuance without stockholder approval. These additional shares may be
issued for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to
raise  additional  capital, corporate  acquisitions  and under  employee benefit
plans. The existence of authorized but unissued Common Stock and Preferred Stock
may enable the Board of Directors to issue shares to persons friendly to current
management, which could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain
control of the  Company by means  of a  proxy contest, tender  offer, merger  or
otherwise,  and thereby protect the continuity  of the Company's management. The
Company's Board of Directors has the authority to issue shares of such Preferred
Stock in one or more series and  to fix, by resolution, the voting powers,  full
or limited or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences and relative,
participating,  optional  or  other  rights,  if  any,  and  the qualifications,
limitations or restrictions thereof, if any,  including the number of shares  in
such  series (which the Board may increase  or decrease as permitted by Delaware
law), liquidation preferences, dividend rates, conversion rights and  redemption
provisions  of the shares  constituting any series, without  any further vote or
action by the stockholders. Any shares  of Preferred Stock so issued would  have
priority over the Common Stock with respect to dividend or liquidation rights or
both.
 
    In  addition,  the Company  is subject  to  the anti-takeover  provisions of
Section 203 of the  Delaware General Corporation Law.  In general, this  Section
prohibits  a publicly  held Delaware  corporation from  engaging in  a "business
combination" (as defined) with  an "interested stockholder"  (as defined) for  a
period  of three  years after the  date of  the transaction in  which the person
became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in
a prescribed manner.  This section may  render more difficult  or discourage  an
attempt  to obtain control  of the Company  by means of  a proxy contest, tender
offer, merger or otherwise, and thereby protect the continuity of the  Company's
management.  In  addition,  in  certain  cases,  this  section  may  prevent the
Company's stockholders from realizing a premium upon the sale of their shares in
any tender offer or merger opposed by the Company's management. See "Description
of Capital Stock."
 
    DIVIDENDS.  In January  1996, Greenwich paid a  cash dividend on its  Common
Stock  of  $.01 per  share (as  restated to  give effect  to the  stock dividend
distributed on May 8, 1996). Although the Company intends to pay annual stock or
cash dividends on its Class A and Class B Common Stock, the New Credit  Facility
and  the Indenture under which the Notes will be issued restrict the declaration
and payment of cash  dividends on the Common  Stock unless the Company  complies
with  certain minimum  financial covenants. In  the future, the  payment of cash
dividends by the Company on its Common  Stock will also depend on its  financial
condition,  results  of  operations  and  such other  factors  as  the  Board of
Directors of the Company  may consider relevant, and  no assurance can be  given
that the Company will pay any dividends in the future or that the amount of such
dividends will not be reduced from prior periods. See "Dividend Policy."
 
   
    RECENT  DEVELOPMENT.  Under a  long-term technical assistance agreement with
General Electric, the engine components repair operation of the Aviall  Business
located  in McAllen, Texas  licenses certain propriety  GE technology to provide
gas turbine engine  blade and vane  repairs primarily to  the engine repair  and
overhaul  service centers located  in Dallas, Texas  and Prestwick, Scotland. GE
has consented to  the assignment of  this license to  the Company in  connection
with  the Aviall  Acquisition, but such  license will terminate  on September 3,
1996 unless the Company and  GE are able to  renegotiate new economic and  other
terms  of a new long-term license. Although the Company believes that it will be
able to enter into a  new license arrangement with GE  within the next 90  days,
failing  which  it  will  be  able  to  purchase  such  technical  services  and
proprietary items directly from GE and other sources, the inability to negotiate
such technical license on commercially  attractive terms could adversely  affect
the  profit  margins  of  its  components  operation.  In  1995,  the Components
operation contributed less  than 5% to  the combined net  sales revenues of  the
Aviall Business. See "Business--Engine Component and Accessory Refurbishment."
    
 
                                       14
<PAGE>
                             THE AVIALL ACQUISITION
 
    On  April  19,  1996,  Greenwich, its  wholly-owned  subsidiary  GASI Engine
Services Corporation and Aviall entered into  an Agreement of Purchase and  Sale
(the  "Purchase  Agreement"). Pursuant  to the  Purchase Agreement,  the Company
agreed to acquire the Aviall Business, which consists of: (a) substantially  all
of the assets and business of the commercial engine services divisions (the "CES
Divisions")  of  Aviall and  (b) all  of  the issued  and outstanding  shares of
capital stock of Aviall Limited ("Aviall  UK"), a subsidiary of Aviall. The  CES
Divisions include (i) all of the engine repair and overhaul operations of Aviall
located in Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas and (ii) the components and parts repair
business of Aviall located in McAllen, Texas (the "Components Division"). Aviall
UK  operates an engine repair and  overhaul facility in Prestwick, Scotland (the
"Caledonian Operation"). The Company  has agreed to  assume, pay and  discharge,
when  due, only certain specified obligations  and liabilities of Aviall as they
exist at  the  closing date.  The  purchase price  for  the Aviall  Business  is
estimated  to be approximately $239.0 million (net of assumed liabilities) based
upon the March  31, 1996 balance  sheet of the  Aviall Business. Such  estimated
purchase  price is  subject to  adjustment based upon  the balance  sheet of the
Aviall Business on the date that the Aviall Acquisition is consummated. As  part
of the Aviall Acquisition, Aviall has agreed to provide the Company with certain
MIS and related accounting services for the CES Divisions on a short-term basis.
 
    The  Company  intends  to  pay  the entire  purchase  price  for  the Aviall
Acquisition in cash at  the closing. The purchase  price is being financed  with
the  proceeds from the Offerings and the Initial Drawdown. In the event that the
Common Stock Offering  is not  consummated, but the  Note Offering  and the  New
Credit  Facility  are  consummated,  Greenwich will  pay  $80.4  million  of the
purchase price for the Aviall Business by the delivery of up to $55.0 million in
shares of its Class B Common Stock, and the balance will be paid in cash through
additional borrowings under the New Credit Facility. See "Use of Proceeds."
 
                            CONCURRENT TRANSACTIONS
 
    Concurrently with, and  as a condition  to, the consummation  of the  Common
Stock Offering, the Company will consummate the Note Offering. The Notes will be
issued  under the Indenture  between the Company,  the Subsidiary Guarantors (as
defined therein) and American  Stock Transfer & Trust  Company, as Trustee.  For
anticipated  terms  of  the Notes  and  Indenture, see  "Description  of Certain
Indebtedness --    % Senior Notes due 2006." No assurance can be given that  the
expected terms of the Notes will not be materially changed.
 
    Concurrently  with the consummation  of the Common  Stock Offering, the Note
Offering and the  Aviall Acquisition, the  Company will refinance  substantially
all  indebtedness  under its  existing credit  facility  through the  New Credit
Facility, a  $175.0 million  senior  secured revolving  credit facility  with  a
commercial  lender, individually and as agent for other lenders. Pursuant to the
Initial  Drawdown,  the  Company  anticipates  that  it  will  initially  borrow
approximately  $74.4 million under  the New Credit  Facility. Funds advanced and
repaid under the New Credit Facility may be reborrowed through May 2001, subject
to the  conditions  specified in  the  New Credit  Facility.  See  "Management's
Discussion  and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Pro
Forma  Liquidity   and   Capital   Resources"  and   "Description   of   Certain
Indebtedness."

                                USE OF PROCEEDS
 
    The  net  proceeds  from  the  Offerings  and  the  Initial  Drawdown, after
deducting underwriting  discounts  and  other expenses  of  the  Offerings,  are
estimated   to  be   approximately  $299.9   million  ($314.3   million  if  the
Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full). The Company will  not
receive  any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares of Class B Common Stock
being sold by the Selling Stockholder.  The Common Stock Offering is  contingent
upon  the consummation of, and will  occur concurrently with, the Note Offering,
the Aviall Acquisition and the  Initial Drawdown. See "The Aviall  Acquisition."
The  estimated sources  and uses  of funds  from the  Offerings and  the Initial
Drawdown are summarized as follows (in thousands):

                                DIVIDEND POLICY
 
    CASH DIVIDENDS
 
    In January 1996, Greenwich paid a cash dividend on its Common Stock of  $.01
per  share (as restated to  give effect to the  stock dividend). On December 18,
1995, Greenwich's Board of  Directors established a policy  of paying an  annual
dividend.  Subject  to  the  financial covenants  contained  in  the  New Credit
Facility and the Indenture under which  the Notes will be issued, the  Company's
policy  will be to  retain at least 90%  of the Company's free  net cash flow to
finance the Company's growth, if any. The Company also intends to increase  such
annual  dividend by 15% per annum in cash  or stock, provided that the amount of
income available to pay the  cash portion of any  such dividend will not  exceed
10% of the Company's free cash flow.
 
    In  the future, the payment  of cash dividends by  the Company on its Common
Stock will depend  on its financial  condition, results of  operations and  such
other  factors as the Board  of Directors of the  Company may consider relevant,
and no assurance can  be given that  the Company will pay  any dividends in  the
future  or that  the amount  of such  dividends will  not be  reduced from prior
periods. See "Management's  Discussion and Analysis  of Financial Condition  and
Results of Operations -- Pro Forma Liquidity and Capital Resources."
 
    STOCK DIVIDEND
 
    On  April 26, 1996,  Greenwich declared a  dividend of one  share of Class B
Common Stock for each share of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of April  18,
1996.  On May 8, 1996,  6,322,659 shares of Class B  Common Stock were issued as
payment of this dividend.  See "Description of Capital  Stock -- Class B  Common
Stock" for a further description of such stock dividend.

months  ended March  31, 1996,  and the  Company's Unaudited  Pro Forma Combined
Balance Sheet Information at March 31, 1996,  in each case giving effect to  the
Aviall  Acquisition under the "purchase" method of accounting, the Offerings and
the  Initial  Drawdown.  The  Company's  Unaudited  Pro  Forma  Combined  Income
Statement  Information presents  the Aviall  Acquisition, the  Offerings and the
Initial Drawdown, in  each case as  if it or  they had been  consummated at  the
beginning  of the periods presented. The  Company's Unaudited Pro Forma Combined
Balance Sheet Information presents the Aviall Acquisition, the Offerings and the
Initial Drawdown, in each case  as if it or they  had been consummated on  March
31,  1996. The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information of the Company
are presented for illustrative  purposes only, and therefore  do not purport  to
present  the financial position or results of  operations of the Company had the
Aviall Acquisition, the Offerings and the Initial Drawdown occurred on the dates
indicated, nor  are they  necessarily indicative  of the  results of  operations
which may be expected to occur in the future.
 
    The  historical  balance  sheet  information for  Greenwich  and  the Aviall
Business has been  derived from the  unaudited March 31,  1996 balance sheet  of
Greenwich  and the Aviall Business included in this Prospectus. The data for the
six months ended  March 31, 1996  have been derived  from Greenwich's  unaudited
income  statement for  the six  months ended  March 31,  1996 included elsewhere
herein and the  unaudited income statement  of the Aviall  Business for the  six
months  ended  March  31, 1996  not  included  elsewhere herein.  The  pro forma
adjustments relating to  the integration  of the Aviall  Business represent  the
Company's  preliminary determinations  of these  adjustments and  are based upon
available information and certain  assumptions the Company considers  reasonable
under  the  circumstances.  Final  amounts could  differ  from  those  set forth
therein. The unaudited historical financial statements of Greenwich referred  to
above,  in  the opinion  of management  of  Greenwich, include  all adjustments,
consisting  only  of  normal  recurring   adjustments,  necessary  for  a   fair
presentation  of the results of Greenwich for the unaudited interim periods. The
unaudited historical financial  statements of  the Aviall  Business referred  to
above,  in  the  opinion  of  management  of  Aviall,  include  all adjustments,
consisting  of  only  normal  recurring   adjustments,  necessary  for  a   fair
presentation  of the  results of the  Aviall Business for  the unaudited interim
periods.

          NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
                             (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
 
1.   The pro forma periods for the year ended September 30, 1995 and for the six
    months ended March 31, 1996  are Greenwich's historical financial  reporting
    periods.  For  the  pro forma  year  ended  September 30,  1995,  the Aviall
    Business has been  included for the  twelve months ended  December 31,  1995
    because  they have historically reported  on a calendar year  end as part of
    Aviall. Historical financial information of the Aviall Business for the  six
    months  ended March 31, 1996 included in the pro forma financial information
    for the six  months ended March  31, 1996, includes  the three months  ended
    December  31, 1995, which has also been included in the pro forma year ended
    September 30, 1995. For the three months ended December 31, 1995, net  sales
    were  $130,004 and net income (loss) was ($11,216). The Company believes the
    effect of the difference in these  reporting periods is not significant  and
    is  not reflected in the Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information.
    The purchase price will be determined based upon an audit as of the  closing
    date.  The purchase price is $330,000  less certain adjustments based on the
    difference between the  actual current  assets as  of the  closing date  and
    $271,000 and less the value of certain assumed liabilities as of the closing
    date.  Based upon  the Aviall  Business' March  31, 1996  balance sheet, the
    purchase price would have been calculated as follows:

    fair value. The final  purchase price determination  and allocation will  be
    contingent  upon final assessment or appraisal of  the fair value of the net
    assets acquired, and the audited balance sheet of the Aviall Business as  it
    relates to certain items being acquired or assumed as of the closing date.

a.         The pro forma adjustments to interest expense arising from the Aviall
            Acquisition, the Offerings and the Initial Drawdown are presented below. The
            pro forma interest expense adjustment assumes that $55,347 of the proceeds
            from the New Credit Facility of $74,429 will be used to retire indebtedness
            under the existing revolving credit facility
           Elimination of interest expenses related to the repayment of:
           Existing Greenwich revolving credit facility.................................   $     4,926     $    2,463
           Existing Aviall Business indebtedness and advances from Aviall...............        19,216          9,087

           Pro forma adjustment.........................................................         2,227            593
           Interest savings associated with the repayment of $55,347 under the existing
            revolving credit facility was calculated based on an average interest rate
            of 9.75%. Interest on the initial borrowing under the New Credit Facility
            was computed at an assumed interest rate of 7.75% per annum.
           A 0.25% increase or decrease in the interest rates used above would result in
            an increase or decrease in annual interest expense of $561.
b.         Decrease in depreciation expense to reflect the fair value and useful lives
            of the acquired property, plant and equipment as allocated to:
           Cost of sales................................................................         8,987          4,389
           Selling, general and administrative..........................................           919            449
c.         Elimination of amortization expense of goodwill and other intangible assets
            of the Aviall Business......................................................         3,771          2,199
d.         Increase in gross profit resulting from the adjustment to fair value of
            long-term engine maintenance contracts which expire within from one to three
            years.......................................................................        11,407          8,604
e.         Elimination of restructuring costs incurred by Aviall on behalf of the Aviall
            Business, as a result of the Aviall Acquisition.............................                       39,567
f.         Adjustment to the provision for income taxes to the combined expected
            effective rate of 39%.......................................................        (5,181)           929

4.   For purposes of  preparing the Unaudited Pro  Forma Combined Balance Sheet,
    the Aviall Business' assets  and liabilities acquired  or assumed have  been
    recorded  at  their  estimated fair  values.  A final  determination  of the
    required purchase accounting adjustments and of the fair value of the assets
    and liabilities of the Aviall Business acquired or assumed has not yet  been
    made.  Accordingly, the  purchase accounting adjustments  made in connection
    with the  development  of  the unaudited  pro  forma  financial  information
    reflect  Greenwich management's best estimate based upon currently available
    information.

5.   Stockholders'  equity has  been adjusted to  reflect issuance  of shares of
    Greenwich Class B Common Stock at an assumed price of $25 1/4 per share, net
    of expenses of approximately $5,500.
 
6.  EBITDA represents net income  (loss) before the cumulative effect of  change
    in   accounting  plus   provisions  for  income   taxes,  interest  expense,
    depreciation and amortization, restructuring costs and any charge related to
    any premium or penalty  paid in connection with  redeeming and retiring  any
    indebtedness  prior  to  its stated  maturity.  While EBITDA  should  not be
    construed as a substitute for income  from operations, net income (loss)  or
    cash  flows from operating  activities in analyzing  the Company's operating
    performance, financial position  and cash  flows, the  Company has  included
    EBITDA  because  it is  commonly used  by certain  investors to  analyze and
    compare companies  on  the  basis of  operating  performance,  leverage  and
    liquidity, and to determine the Company's ability to service debt.
 
7.   For  the purpose  of determining  the ratio  of earnings  to fixed charges,
    earnings consist  of  income  before income  taxes,  change  in  accounting,
    extraordinary  items and fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest on
    indebtedness, including,  if  any, the  amortization  of debt  issue  costs,
    accretion of debt discount, interest expense accrued in accordance with EITF
    Issue   No.  86-15  and  one-third  of   rental  expense  (which  is  deemed
    representative of  the interest  factor therein).  Earnings for  the  Aviall

(2) For  the purpose  of determining  the ratio  of earnings  to fixed  charges,
    earnings  consist  of  income  before income  taxes,  change  in accounting,
    extraordinary items and fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest  on
    indebtedness,  including,  if any,  the  amortization of  debt  issue costs,
    accretion of debt discount, interest expense accrued in accordance with EITF
    Issue  No.  86-15  and  one-third   of  rental  expense  (which  is   deemed
    representative  of  the interest  factor therein).  Earnings for  the Aviall
    Business were insufficient to cover  fixed charges in the historical  fiscal
    years  ended December  31, 1994 and  1995 and  for the three  and six months
    ended March 31, 1996 by $395, $7,066, $44,756 and $55,046 (the 1996  amounts
    include $39,567 of restructuring costs), respectively.
 
(3)  EBITDA represents net income (loss)  before the cumulative effect of change
    in  accounting  plus   provisions  for  income   taxes,  interest   expense,
    depreciation  and amortization, restructuring costs,  and any charge related
    to any premium or penalty paid in connection with redeeming and retiring any
    indebtedness prior  to  its stated  maturity.  While EBITDA  should  not  be
    construed  as a substitute for income  from operations, net income (loss) or
    cash flows from  operating activities in  analyzing the Company's  operating
    performance,  financial position  and cash  flows, the  Company has included
    EBITDA because  it is  commonly used  by certain  investors to  analyze  and
    compare  companies  on  the  basis of  operating  performance,  leverage and
    liquidity and to determine the Company's ability to service debt.

    selected  historical financial  data of the  Aviall Business  for the fiscal
    years ended December 31, 1994 and  1995, respectively. For the three  months
    ended  December 31,  1994 and  1995, net  sales were  $146,495 and $130,004,
    respectively, and net income (loss) was $2,096 and ($11,216), respectively.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
OVERVIEW
 
    GENERAL
 
    Greenwich  is a leading independent provider of repair and overhaul services
for gas turbine engines  used in both aviation  and industrial applications  and
provides  management services for  government and military  agencies, as well as
for the  worldwide installation  of gas  turbine powered  electrical  generation
plants.  Under  current management's  direction,  internal growth  and strategic
acquisitions have increased Greenwich's net sales from $75.8 million in 1991  to
$196.3  million in  1995. Similarly,  net income  has increased  78.8% from $3.5
million in 1991 to $6.2 million in 1995. The acquisition of the Aviall  Business
is  expected to diversify further the Company's servicing capabilities, increase
market share and  provide access to  previously unavailable markets.  Management
believes  that these factors, coupled  with Greenwich's entrepreneurial approach
and commitment  to remain  a  high-quality, efficient  provider of  gas  turbine
engine  services,  will  enable  the  Company  to  maintain  its  position  as a
successful competitor in the global marketplace.
 
    In April 1994,  Greenwich, through its  newly-formed subsidiary Gas  Turbine
Corporation  ("GTC"),  acquired the  operating assets  and  business of  the Gas
Turbine Corporation East  Granby Division (the  "GTC Division") from  Chromalloy
Gas  Turbine Corporation, a  competitor of Greenwich that  had the capability to
repair certain engine models that Greenwich did not then service, including  the
Pratt  &  Whitney JT8D-200  medium by-pass  aircraft  engine and  GG4 industrial
engine. In fiscal 1994, the operations of the GTC Division contributed sales  of
$28.9  million for  the five and  one-half months  during which it  was owned by
Greenwich, which increased in  fiscal 1995 to $72.4  million, reflecting a  full
year of operations.
 
    Income  from  operations as  a percentage  of sales  declined from  12.5% in
fiscal 1993 to 9.0% in fiscal 1995, primarily as a result of the acquisition  of
the GTC Division, which had significantly lower operating margins than Greenwich
at  the time  of such acquisition.  On a  pro forma basis,  however, fiscal 1993
income from  operations  would  have  been  7.4%  of  net  sales,  had  the  GTC
acquisition  taken  place as  of October  1,  1992. The  integration of  the GTC
Division  generated  cost  savings   from  productivity  improvements  and   the
elimination  of duplicative overhead  expenses. A portion  of these cost savings
were, however, offset by:
 
    - A shift in product mix to a  greater proportion of low and medium  by-pass
      engines,  which historically  have provided  lower gross  margins compared
      with high by-pass (wide body aircraft) engines;
 
    - Competitive pricing pressures within Greenwich's markets; and
 
    - Lower gross margins under a five-year agreement with Continental Airlines,
      which Greenwich entered into in January 1995.
 
    After the Aviall Acquisition, the  Company will derive a greater  percentage
of  its net sales under long-term contracts which historically carry lower gross
margins but provide more predictable and steady streams of revenue. However,  no
assurance  can  be given  that any  or  all of  these agreements  (including the
contract with  USAir  which expires  in  October  1996 and  is  currently  being
renegotiated)  will  be  renewed or  extended  on terms  which  are commercially
favorable to the Company.

    SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 COMPARED WITH SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,
1995
 
    Net sales increased $35.5  million or 42.7% to  $118.6 million in the  first
six  months of fiscal 1996 from $83.1 million  in the first six months of fiscal
1995. The  increase  was due  to  increased sales  in  all four  of  Greenwich's
marketing and technical units.
 
    Gross  profit for  the first  six months of  fiscal 1996  increased to $18.7
million, or 15.8% of net sales, from $13.2 million or 15.9% of net sales for the
first six months of fiscal 1995. The increase was primarily due to the  increase
in  net sales in the  first six months of 1996  from the corresponding period in
1995.
 
    Selling, general and  administrative expenses  for the first  six months  of
fiscal  1996 increased to $7.7 million, or 6.5% of net sales, from $5.5 million,
or 6.6% of net sales  for the first six months  of fiscal 1995. The increase  in
the  first six months of 1996 from the corresponding period in 1995 is primarily
attributable to the increase in net sales  in the first six months of 1996  from
the corresponding period in 1995.
 
    Interest  expense for the first six months  of fiscal 1996 decreased to $3.6
million, or 3.1% of net  sales, from $3.8 million or  4.6% of net sales for  the
first  six months of fiscal 1995, primarily  due to a reduction in interest paid
on the Company's Debentures  as a result  of the conversion  of more than  $13.0
million  principal amount of the Debentures since March 31, 1995. This reduction
was partially offset by  $1.2 million increase in  average borrowings under  the
Company's existing credit facility during the first six months of 1996.
 
    Income  taxes for  the first  six months  of fiscal  1996 increased  to $2.9
million, or 2.5% of net sales, from $1.6  million, or 2.0% of net sales for  the
first  six months of fiscal 1995, primarily  due to an increase in income before
taxes.
 
    As a result  of the above  factors, net  income increased to  a record  $4.4
million,  or 3.7%  of net  sales for  the first  six months  of 1996,  from $2.4
million, or 2.8% of net sales for the first six months of 1995.
 
    FISCAL 1995 COMPARED WITH FISCAL 1994
 
    Net sales for  fiscal 1995 increased  86.6% to $196.3  million, from  $105.2
million  for fiscal 1994. This increase resulted  from strong sales gains in all
four of Greenwich's  marketing and  technical units and  Greenwich's ability  to
capitalize  on  the  trend toward  outsourcing  in the  commercial  aviation and
military markets. Additionally, fiscal 1995  marked Greenwich's first full  year
of  sales produced by the GTC Division, with GTC Division sales of $72.4 million
in fiscal 1995, as compared to sales of $28.9 million for only five and one-half
months of fiscal 1994.
 
                                       30
<PAGE>
    Gross profit for fiscal 1995 increased  81.7% to $31.4 million, or 16.0%  of
net  sales, from  $17.3 million  or 16.4%  of net  sales, for  fiscal 1994. This
increase in gross  profit is primarily  due to Greenwich's  increased net  sales
during  the period. The decrease as a  percentage of net sales was primarily due
to the timing of  the integration of  the operations of the  GTC Division and  a
shift in product mix to a greater proportion of low and medium by-pass engines.
 
    Selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal 1995 increased 94.7%
to  $13.6 million, or 7.0% of net sales, from $7.0 million, or 6.6% of net sales
for fiscal 1994. The increase was primarily due to the addition of marketing and
administrative expenses from  increased business  activity, a full  year of  GTC
Division  operations,  the write-off  of uncollectible  accounts and  the higher
incentive bonus expense related to Greenwich's financial performance.
 
    Interest expense for fiscal 1995 increased 67.1% to $8.0 million, or 4.0% of
net sales, from $4.8 million, or 4.5%  of net sales, for fiscal 1994,  primarily
due  to an  increase in  Greenwich's average borrowings  during the  period as a
result of increased business activity and the acquisition of the GTC Division.
 
    Net other non-operating income for fiscal 1995 increased 450.7% to $391,000,
or 0.2% of  net sales,  from $71,000,  or 0.1% of  net sales,  for fiscal  1994,
primarily  due to  an approximately $319,000  foreign exchange rate  gain on the
sale  of  approximately  $1.4  million  in  notes  receivable  related  to   the
installation of a 25 megawatt power station in Senegal, West Africa.
 
    Income taxes for fiscal 1995 increased 78.6% to $4.0 million, or 2.0% of net
sales, from $2.2 million, or 2.2% of net sales, for fiscal 1994. The increase is
attributed  primarily to the increase in Greenwich's business for fiscal 1995 as
compared with fiscal 1994.
 
    As a  result  of the  above  factors, net  income  increased 85.3%  to  $6.2
million,  or 3.2% of net  sales, for fiscal 1995, from  $3.3 million, or 3.2% of
net sales, for fiscal 1994.
 
    FISCAL 1994 COMPARED WITH FISCAL 1993
 
    Net sales for  fiscal 1994  increased 50.0%  to $105.2  million, from  $69.5
million  for  fiscal 1993.  The increase  resulted from  sales of  $28.9 million
generated by the GTC Division subsequent to the acquisition, as well as a  10.0%
increase in net sales at Greenwich's Miami Facility from the servicing of medium
and  high by-pass aircraft turbine engines  and increased activity in connection
with government programs.
 
    Gross profit for fiscal 1994 increased  20.0% to $17.3 million, or 16.4%  of
net  sales, from  $14.4 million  or 20.7%  of net  sales, for  fiscal 1993. This
increase in gross  profit is primarily  due to Greenwich's  increased net  sales
during  the period. The decrease as a percentage of net sales was due to a shift
in product mix  to a larger  percentage of  low and medium  by-pass engines  and
fewer  high by-pass and industrial engines, competitive pricing pressures within
the airline industry and  the inclusion of progress  billings for power  station
installations, which historically carry lower gross profits.
 
    Selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal 1994 increased 22.8%
to  $7.0 million, or 6.6% of net sales, from $5.7 million, or 8.2% of net sales,
for fiscal 1993. The increase was primarily due to the addition of marketing and
administrative expenses from the  GTC Division's operations  and an increase  in
professional and other expenses associated with operating as a public company.
 
    Greenwich  incurred no relocation or hurricane expenses in 1994, as compared
with $140,000 or 0.2% of net sales, in fiscal 1993.
 
    Interest expense for fiscal 1994 increased 56.6% to $4.8 million, or 4.5% of
net sales, from $3.0 million, or 4.4%  of net sales, for fiscal 1993,  primarily
due  to an  increase in  Greenwich's average borrowings  during the  period as a
result of  the acquisition  of  the GTC  Division  and increased  borrowings  to
support growth in the Miami operations. Interest expense was also affected by an
increase in interest rates in fiscal 1994 compared to fiscal 1993.
 
    Net other non-operating income for fiscal 1994 increased 48.2% to $71,000 or
0.1% of net sales, from $48,000, or 0.1% of net sales, for fiscal 1993.
 
                                       31
<PAGE>
    Income  taxes for fiscal 1994 decreased 4.3% to $2.2 million, or 2.2% of net
sales, from $2.3 million, or 3.4% of  net sales, for fiscal 1993. This  decrease
was  attributed primarily  to a  decrease in  Greenwich's effective  tax rate to
39.8% for fiscal 1994, as compared with 40.9% of income before taxes for  fiscal
1993.
 
    As  a result of  the factors described  above, net income  decreased 0.8% to
$3.3 million, or 3.2% of net sales, for fiscal 1994, from $3.4 million, or  4.9%
of net sales, for fiscal 1993.

    THREE  MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 COMPARED  TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,
1995
 
    Net sales  in the  first three  months  of 1996  increased 11.8%  to  $134.7
million  from $120.6 million in the first three months of 1995. The net increase
resulted primarily from higher CFM56 sales to USAir, which were partially offset
by lower  CFM56 sales  to Southwest  Airlines. Sales  related to  CF6 and  V2500
engines were higher as well, the former primarily to Federal Express and others,
partially offset by lower sales to Continental Airlines.
 
    Gross  profit in  the first  three months  of 1996  decreased 43.0%  to $7.9
million, or 5.8% of net sales, from $13.8 million, or 11.5% of net sales, in the
first  three  months  of  1995.  This  decline  was  primarily  attributable  to
re-engineering related expenses at the Dallas facility, higher quality costs and
a less favorable customer mix at Aviall U.K.
 
    Selling  and  administrative  expenses in  the  first three  months  of 1996
increased 15.7% to $8.8  million, or 6.5%  of net sales,  from $7.6 million,  or
6.3%  of  net  sales, in  the  first three  months  of 1995.  This  increase was
primarily due to  expenses associated with  severance costs in  the first  three
months of 1996.
 
    Restructuring  costs approximating $55.0 million will be incurred in 1996 by
Aviall on behalf of  the Aviall Business. The  combined financial statements  of
the  Aviall Business  for the  three months ended  March 31,  1996 include $39.6
million of  such restructuring  costs  incurred by  Aviall.  To the  extent  any
additional  amount of such  restructuring costs are incurred  by Aviall prior to
consummation of the Aviall  Acquisition, such expense will  be reflected in  any
financial  statements of  the Aviall  Business compiled  for the  period between
March 31,  1996 and  the date  of  consummation of  the Aviall  Acquisition.  No
amounts  in  respect  of  such  restructuring costs  will  be  reflected  in the
Company's financial  statements after  consummation  of the  Aviall  Acquisition
except  for certain expenses in respect of Aviall U.K. for which the Company has
been indemnified by Aviall.
 
    YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 COMPARED WITH YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994
 
    Net sales for 1995 increased 2.9% to $504.8 million from $490.4 million  for
1994.  The net increase  resulted primarily from higher  CFM56 engine repair and
overhaul service sales to USAir, offset by declines in sales from the  servicing
of both low by-pass JT8D engines for Continental Airlines and high by-pass V2500
engines.
 
                                       32
<PAGE>
    Gross  profit for  1995 decreased  20.6% to  $42.2 million,  or 8.4%  of net
sales, from $53.2 million,  or 10.8% of  net sales, for  1994. The decrease  was
principally  attributable to unfavorable performance against assumptions used in
certain  long-term  maintenance   contracts  and  the   disruptive  effects   of
re-engineering  programs at its Dallas  facilities, which resulted in turnaround
time penalties in 1995 of $5.7  million under certain long-term agreements  with
commercial airlines.
 
    Selling  and  administrative  expenses  for 1995  decreased  15.1%  to $30.0
million, or 6.0% of  net sales, from  $35.4 million, or 7.2%  of net sales,  for
1994.  The decrease was primarily attributable  to a reduction in re-engineering
related consulting expenses and lower provisions for uncollectible accounts.
 
    YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 COMPARED WITH YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993
 
    Net sales for 1994 increased 1.5% to $490.4 million from $482.9 million  for
1993.  This increase was primarily attributable to increases in the servicing of
the CFM56 engine  product line  offset by  decreases in  servicing other  engine
product lines including CF6, PW100, JT8D and V2500.
 
    Gross  profit for  1994 decreased  14.8% to $53.2  million, or  10.8% of net
sales, from $62.4 million, or 12.9% of  net sales, for 1993. A competitive  1994
pricing  environment reduced  gross profit  percentages on  most major contracts
signed during  the  year. Voluntary  severance  payments at  the  Dallas  engine
facility  also adversely  affected gross profits,  partially offset  by lower UK
currency exchange losses in 1994 compared with 1993.
 
    Selling and  administrative  expenses  for 1994  increased  17.9%  to  $35.4
million,  or 7.2% of  net sales, from $30.0  million, or 6.2%  of net sales, for
1993. The  increase  was  primarily  due  to  re-engineering  related  expenses,
additional marketing expenses and higher allocated corporate expenses associated
with Aviall operating as a public company.
 
PRO FORMA LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
   
    Upon  consummation of  the Offerings,  the Initial  Drawdown and  the Aviall
Acquisition, the Company's primary sources of  liquidity will be cash flow  from
operations  and borrowings  under the  New Credit  Facility. In  addition, other
sources of liquidity are  anticipated to be advance  payments for power  station
installations  and  other  customer  progress  payments.  Under  the  New Credit
Facility, lenders will provide the Company with a $175.0 million senior  secured
revolving   credit  facility  secured  by  the  Company's  accounts  receivable,
inventories and contract rights. Advances under the New Credit Facility will  be
based   upon  percentages  of  outstanding   eligible  accounts  receivable  and
inventories. Pursuant to  the New  Credit Facility,  it is  anticipated that  an
aggregate  of approximately $74.4 million will be borrowed initially pursuant to
the Initial  Drawdown  and  approximately  $3.0 million  will  be  utilized  for
outstanding  letters  of credit  and that  approximately  $97.6 million  will be
available for  future borrowings.  See  "Use of  Proceeds" and  "Description  of
Certain  Indebtedness --  New Credit Facility."  The Company may  be required to
borrow additional  amounts under  the  New Credit  Facility  in the  six  months
following  consummation of  the Aviall Acquisition  in order  to reduce accounts
payable and build inventory  acquired in the Aviall  Acquisition, as well as  to
purchase  additional inventory required  to service certain  customers under new
contracts being negotiatied or under existing contracts. The New Credit Facility
will require the Company to comply with certain financial covenants (relating to
minimum ratios of cash flow  to fixed charges, minimum  ratio of funded debt  to
cash  flow  and  minimum  tangible net  worth)  and  other  covenants, including
limitations on additional  debt (in excess  of the Notes,  Debentures and  other
currently outstanding debt), dividends and changes in control.
    
 
    Under the New Credit Facility, the Company may elect to borrow at either the
lender's  prime rate, plus 0.875%  (subject to reduction to  0.5% or increase to
1.125% based  upon  the  Company's  achieving  or  failing  to  achieve  certain
financial  goals), or (ii)  the LIBOR rate (adjustable  every three months) plus
2.375%. As  at  March 31,  1996,  the lender's  prime  rate was  7.75%  and  the
three-month LIBOR rate was 5.44%.
 
    Concurrently  with  the  Common Stock  Offering,  the Company  will  sell an
aggregate of $150.0  million principal amount  of the Notes.  The Notes will  be
senior  unsecured  obligations of  the Company,  will rank  PARI PASSU  with all
unsubordinated unsecured indebtedness and will be senior in right of payment  to
all  existing  and  future subordinated  indebtedness.  The Notes  will  also be
guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by
 
                                       33
<PAGE>
each of Greenwich's  subsidiaries and will  be jointly secured  on a PARI  PASSU
basis  with indebtedness under the New Credit Facility by a pledge of 65% of the
capital stock of Aviall U.K.  For a description of the  terms of the Notes,  see
"Description of Certain Indebtedness --     % Senior Notes due 2006."
 
    Greenwich's  aggregate capital expenditures for  fiscal 1994 and fiscal 1995
and the six months ended March 31, 1996 were $1.7 million, $2.7 million and $1.7
million, respectively. The capital expenditures of the Aviall Business for  1994
and  1995  were  $21.6  million  and  $13.2  million,  respectively.  Management
anticipates that the total capital expenditures  for the balance of fiscal  1996
and  fiscal 1997 will be approximately $6.0  million, which will be used to fund
the purchase of  production tooling  and data  processing equipment.  Management
plans  to fund these capital expenditures from cash flow from operations and, if
necessary, borrowings under the New Credit Facility.
 
    The  Company's  liquidity   will  also  be   affected  by  the   substantial
indebtedness  the Company  will incur  in connection  with the  financing of the
Aviall  Acquisition,  which  will  substantially  increase  the  Company's  cash
requirements  for debt service  and will impose  various operating restrictions.
The New Credit  Facility and  the Indenture contain  certain restrictions  that,
among   other  things,   limit  the   Company's  ability   to  incur  additional
indebtedness, create liens,  pay dividends and  make other restricted  payments,
make  certain investments, transact  with affiliates, and  consolidate, merge or
transfer assets. See "Description of Certain Indebtedness."
 
    The success  of  the  Company's  expansion plan  and  its  ability  to  meet
operating  forecasts will depend in part upon its acquisition and maintenance of
adequate inventories of parts. The Company believes that its ability to stock  a
broad  parts inventory,  including the  availability of  satisfactory credit and
other supplier arrangements, will enhance its efficiency and turnaround time  on
overhaul,  emergency repair and refurbishment work.  The Company intends to fund
increases in its parts inventory, as needed, from cash flow from operations  and
borrowings  under the New  Credit Facility. In connection  with its January 1995
five-year engine service agreement with Continental Airlines, Greenwich  entered
into  an inventory  purchase agreement  with Continental  Airlines in  May 1995.
Under the  terms of  this  agreement, Greenwich  acquired substantially  all  of
Continental  Airlines' JT8D engine  parts inventory. The  purchase price for the
inventory was negotiated as a bulk sale, with approximately 5.7% of the purchase
price paid in  cash and 8.5%  credited against outstanding  receivables owed  to
Greenwich  by Continental  Airlines. The  remaining obligation,  85.8%, is being
satisfied in the  form of service  credits applied against  future invoices  for
services provided to Continental Airlines under the engine service agreement. As
of  March  31, 1996,  an aggregate  of $11.9  million was  owed by  Greenwich to
Continental Airlines for such inventory.
 
    On a pro  forma basis, for  the fiscal  year ended September  30, 1995,  the
Company's  cash flow from operations was $154.9 million; cash used for investing
activities was $8.4 million; cash  generated by financing activities was  $230.3
million; and the ratio of earnings to fixed charges was 2.1:1.
 
    Based  upon  current  and anticipated  levels  of operations  and  plans for
integrating the Aviall Business,  the Company believes that  its cash flow  from
operations,  combined with borrowings  available under the  New Credit Facility,
will be sufficient  to enable the  Company to meet  its current and  anticipated
cash   operating  requirements,  including   scheduled  interest  and  principal
payments, capital expenditures and working capital needs. On a pro forma  basis,
the  Company's (i) income from  operations (excluding non-recurring charges) for
the twelve months ended September  30, 1995 and the  six months ended March  31,
1996  totaled $55.0  million and  $20.2 million,  respectively and  (ii) working
capital as of March 31, 1996 was $250.5 million.
 
    The Company believes that the integration of the operations of Greenwich and
the  Aviall  Business   following  the   Aviall  Acquisition   will  result   in
opportunities  to  improve  cash  flows  by  capitalizing  on  the  cost savings
resulting from  the  elimination  of  duplicative  functions  in  the  areas  of
administration,  sales, marketing, purchasing, technical  and field services and
management information systems. The Company  anticipates, however, that it  will
incur  expenditures of approximately $8.5 million  related to the integration of
the operations of  Greenwich and the  Aviall Business, which  is expected to  be
completed   within  the  first  year  following  the  Aviall  Acquisition.  Such
non-recurring expenditures include amounts related to integration of  management
information  systems  and  other  costs  of  consolidation.  These non-recurring
expenditures initially  will be  funded through  cash flow  from operations  and
borrowings under the New Credit Facility.

                               INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
 
    Gas  turbine engines  are used to  power aircraft,  industrial equipment and
marine vessels and to generate electrical  power. A gas turbine aircraft  engine
compresses  air and mixes it  with fuel which is  ignited to create thrust. Land
based ("aeroderivative")  gas  turbine  engines use  the  same  technology,  but
instead  of creating  thrust, the engine  turns a  drive shaft or  pump to power
marine vessels, or is used in a variety of industrial applications such as power
plants. The major manufacturers  of gas turbine  engines are CFM  International,
General  Electric, International Aero Engines, Pratt  & Whitney and Rolls Royce.
The need for more powerful and fuel efficient engines has led to the creation of
the larger "high by-pass" aircraft  engine which captures and compresses  larger
amounts of air with increases in thrust.
 
    The  Company believes  that the  worldwide market  for aircraft  gas turbine
engine repair and overhaul services is approximately $6.5 billion. Growth of the
engine repair and  overhaul market is  primarily driven by  the activity of  the
commercial aviation industry. Such market is projected to grow over the next ten
years  at an annual rate  of 4% in North America,  8% in the Asia-Pacific region
and 6% in Latin America. Approximately 55% of this market is currently  serviced
by  operators of the  engines, principally major  commercial airlines, for their
own engine needs. The remaining gas  turbine engines are serviced by  commercial
airlines,  the OEMs and by a  limited number of independent operators, including
the Company. Commercial airlines, OEMs and independent operators compete on  the
ability to provide services tailored to each customer's requirements, turnaround
times, breadth of services offered and price.
 
    The  repair and overhaul  of aircraft engines  are regulated by governmental
agencies  throughout  the  world,  including  the  FAA  and  the  BCAA,  and  is
supplemented  by  guidelines established  by OEMs  which generally  require that
engines be overhauled and certain engine components and parts be replaced  after
a  certain number  of flight  hours or  cycles (take-offs  and landings). Engine
maintenance costs can range from $100,000 for certain repairs to as much as $1.5
million or more for a complete engine overhaul.
 
    Certain trends within  the aviation industry  favoring independent  overhaul
providers include:
 
    - OUTSOURCING  OF COMMERCIAL ENGINE SERVICES.  In order to lower costs, many
      passenger airlines  and  freight  and  package  carriers  are  seeking  to
      outsource  their  engine  servicing.  Airlines  such  as  British Airways,
      Continental Airlines, Southwest Airlines and USAir currently utilize third
      parties, and other  airlines are  expected to follow  as labor  agreements
      allow.
 
    - OUTSOURCING  OF MILITARY MAINTENANCE  SERVICES.  It  is estimated that the
      U.S. military market is  greater than the  commercial aircraft market  for
      engine  and  aircraft maintenance  and  related services.  The  closing of
      military bases and reductions in personnel have resulted in an increase in
      the demand for these services in the commercial marketplace. As additional
      bases are closed or realigned, this trend is expected to continue.
 
    - INCREASED AIR TRAVEL.  It is estimated that world air travel will grow  by
      70%  by 2005, and the number of passenger and freight and package delivery
      aircraft in  service  will increase  by  47%, which  should  substantially
      increase the demand for engine repair and overhaul services.
 
    - START-UP  AIRLINES.  Deregulation  of the aviation  industry in the United
      States and the European  Community, relatively low  barriers to entry  and
      excess capacity in equipment, as well as increased consumer demand for air
      travel,  has led to  the emergence of several  low cost start-up airlines.
      Because start-up airlines  generally do not  invest in the  infrastructure
      necessary  to service their  aircraft, many outsource  all of their engine
      repair and overhaul  services. Start-up  airlines also tend  to use  older
      aircraft  with engines  that require greater  servicing. Consequently, the
      Company believes that the growth of start-up airlines is increasing demand
      for independent engine repair and overhaul services.
 
    - GROWTH OF DEMAND FOR AIR FREIGHT AND PACKAGE DELIVERY.  The demand for air
      freight and package  delivery is projected  to grow at  an average  annual
      rate of 7% over the next 20 years. This trend is expected to result in the
      continued  growth of established carriers  such as Airborne Express, Emery
 
                                       35
<PAGE>
      Worldwide Airlines, Federal  Express and  United Parcel  Service, and  has
      caused  the emergence of  new cargo carriers  such as Atlas  Air and Polar
      Air. Many of these carriers also use older aircraft, increasing the demand
      for engine repair and overhaul services.
 
    - LEASING COMPANIES.  The number of aircraft owned by financial institutions
      or leasing  companies, many  of which  use independent  engine repair  and
      overhaul  services, has grown from just over  200 aircraft in 1986 to over
      1,000 aircraft in 1995.

                                    BUSINESS
 
GENERAL
 
    On April  19,  1996,  Greenwich  and Aviall  signed  a  definitive  purchase
agreement for the acquisition by Greenwich of the gas turbine engine service and
engine  components repair business  of Aviall. The  combination of Greenwich and
the Aviall Business will create the largest and most diversified independent gas
turbine engine repair and overhaul company in  the world. On a pro forma  basis,
the  Company  would have  had combined  sales  of $701.1  million and  EBITDA of
approximately $63.1 million in fiscal 1995.
 
    The Company provides its  services on a worldwide  basis through four  major
engine  repair and  overhaul service  centers located  in Dallas,  Texas; Miami,
Florida; East  Granby, Connecticut;  and Prestwick,  Scotland, supported  by  an
engine  components  repair  facility in  McAllen,  Texas, an  engine  repair and
testing facility in  Fort Worth,  Texas and an  engine testing  facility at  JFK
International Airport in New York.
 
GREENWICH
 
    Greenwich  is a leading independent provider of repair and overhaul services
for gas turbine aircraft  engines used to  power Boeing 707,  727, 737 and  747;
McDonnell  Douglas DC-8, DC-9,  DC-10 and MD-80;  Airbus A-300; Lockheed L-1011;
and a  variety  of military  aircraft.  Greenwich also  services  aeroderivative
engines  used in a  variety of industrial and  marine applications. In addition,
Greenwich manages government and military  service and maintenance programs  and
provides  for  the sale  and  refurbishment of  gas  turbine power  plants (with
electrical power output of up to 120 megawatts) in various countries around  the
world.
 
    Greenwich  provides services to more  than 400 customers including passenger
airlines such  as Carnival  Airlines, Continental  Airlines and  VASP  Brazilian
Airlines;  freight and package air carriers such as Emery Worldwide Airlines and
United Parcel Service;  banks and leasing  companies such as  The CIT Group  and
International  Air Leases; utilities  and industrial users  such as Commonwealth
Edison, Dow Chemical and  Southern California Gas;  and military and  government
programs  such  as  those involving  the  United States  government,  Boeing and
Lockheed Martin.  Greenwich's  principal  engine repair,  overhaul  and  testing
facilities  are located at Miami  International Airport, Miami, Florida; Bradley
International Airport, East Granby, Connecticut; JFK International Airport,  New
York,  New York; and Westover  Airport, Chicopee, Massachusetts. Greenwich's net
sales have increased  from $75.8  million in fiscal  1991 to  $196.3 million  in
fiscal 1995.
 
    Greenwich  is  organized  into  four  marketing  and  technical  units:  (i)
commercial aircraft  engines, (ii)  government  programs, (iii)  industrial  and
marine engines and (iv) power stations. These groups comprised 71%, 14%, 10% and
5%, respectively, of fiscal 1995 net sales.
 
   
    In  October  1987, Greenwich  acquired  substantially all  of  the operating
assets and business of a Miami-based  aircraft service corporation. At the  time
of the acquisition, the corporation was primarily engaged in structural airframe
maintenance  and the repair  and servicing of  low by-pass Pratt  & Whitney JT3D
engines and components operated by affiliates  of its former owners, with  sales
to  such  entities  accounting for  approximately  30%  of its  net  sales. Upon
obtaining control,  Greenwich's management  established the  strategic goals  of
expanding  the number and  lines of gas turbine  engines serviced and increasing
the existing customer  base to include  more package and  freight air  carriers,
industrial and marine users, and military and government agencies.
    
 
    In  order to focus on the higher profit margin gas turbine engine repair and
related services business, Greenwich sold in 1990 the assets of a division  that
serviced  small turboprop engines.  In 1991, management  decided to de-emphasize
Greenwich's efforts  in the  highly competitive  and labor-intensive  structural
airframe  business and continued  to diversify into  additional engine lines and
models in order to reduce Greenwich's dependence on the low by-pass JT3D engine,
an older  engine which  was out  of production  and supported  by a  diminishing
market. Servicing of the JT3D engine represented 12% of Greenwich's net sales in
fiscal 1995.
 
    In 1992, Greenwich moved its principal operations from a 200,000 square foot
facility  near the  cargo center of  Miami International Airport  to the 480,000
square foot engine service center formerly operated by
 
                                       37
<PAGE>
Eastern Airlines. Concurrent  with entering into  a favorable thirty-year  lease
for  the  larger  facility,  which includes  three  on-site  engine  test cells,
Greenwich acquired from  the Eastern  Airlines estate substantially  all of  the
equipment  and tooling necessary  for the repair and  maintenance of Rolls Royce
RB211-22B and General Electric CF6-6  and CF6-50 high by-pass aircraft  engines.
This  paved the way  for Greenwich's entry  into the servicing  market for these
larger and more efficient  engines, which are used  to power wide-body  aircraft
such  as  the Airbus  A300, Boeing  747,  Lockheed L-1011  and McDonnell-Douglas
DC-10.
 
    In late  1993,  Greenwich  raised approximately  $23.7  million  in  capital
through  its initial public offering of Class A Common Stock and the Debentures.
Using the proceeds from that offering  along with additional bank financing,  in
April  1994  Greenwich, through  its newly-formed  subsidiary GTC,  acquired the
operating assets and business  of the GTC Division  from Chromalloy Gas  Turbine
Corporation, a competitor of Greenwich that had the capability to repair certain
engine lines and models that Greenwich did not then service, including the Pratt
& Whitney JT8D-200 medium by-pass aircraft engine and GG4 industrial engine. The
acquisition  also provided Greenwich with  additional test cell capabilities for
high by-pass  engines,  including  the  Pratt &  Whitney  JT9D.  Greenwich  also
acquired   the  GTC   Division's  well-established  power   station  design  and
installation operation.  In fiscal  1994,  the operations  of the  GTC  Division
contributed sales of $28.9 million for the five and one-half months during which
it  was owned  by Greenwich,  which increased in  fiscal 1995  to $72.4 million,
reflecting a full year of operations.
 
    As a result of these actions:
 
    - Net  sales  (excluding  the  de-emphasized  structural  aircraft  services
      business) increased from $68.7 million in fiscal 1991 to $196.3 million in
      fiscal 1995;
 
    - Net  income  and EBITDA  increased from  $3.5  million and  $10.1 million,
      respectively,  in  fiscal  1991,  to  $6.2  million  and  $19.9   million,
      respectively, in fiscal 1995;
 
    - Net  sales from the  servicing of high by-pass  engines increased to $24.1
      million  in  fiscal  1995,  or  12%  of  Greenwich's  total  sales,  since
      initiation of these services in fiscal 1992;
 
    - Net  sales from the low by-pass  engine services and lower margin aircraft
      structural services decreased from $45.8  million, or 64% of total  sales,
      in fiscal 1989 to $24.2 million, or 12% of total sales, in fiscal 1995;
 
    - Net  sales from the servicing of industrial and marine gas turbine engines
      and related services increased from $2.5 million, or 3% of total sales, in
      fiscal 1989 to $19.0 million, or 10% of Greenwich's total sales, in fiscal
      1995;
 
    - Net sales  from  programs  supporting  military  and  government  agencies
      increased from $3.7 million, or 5% of total sales, in fiscal 1989 to $27.9
      million, or 14% of total sales, in fiscal 1995; and
 
    - Net  sales from power  station installations were $10.5  million, or 5% of
      total sales, in the first full  year following the acquisition of the  GTC
      Division.
 
THE AVIALL BUSINESS
 
    The  Aviall  Business is  the leading  independent  provider of  gas turbine
aircraft engine maintenance  and engine components  repair services. The  Aviall
Business  provides repair and overhaul services  for gas turbine engines used to
power Boeing 727, 737, 747 and 767; McDonnell Douglas DC-9, DC-10, MD-11,  MD-80
and  MD-90; and Airbus A-300, A-319, A-320, A-321, A-330 and A-340 aircraft, and
also services turboprop engines predominantly used by regional air carriers. The
primary customer  base  of  the  Aviall Business  includes  major  and  regional
commercial  air and freight  and package carriers such  as America West, British
Airways, Continental Airlines,  Federal Express, Southwest  Airlines and  USAir.
The  engine repair and overhaul operations of the Aviall Business are located in
Dallas, Texas; Fort Worth,  Texas; and Prestwick,  Scotland, and its  components
repair operations are located in McAllen, Texas.
 
    Aviall's  engine repair  and overhaul operations  date back to  1932, and in
1955 it became  the world's first  major independent gas  turbine engine  repair
facility.  These operations have been owned  by Aviall since Aviall was spun-off
from Ryder in  1993. The  Aviall Business' net  sales have  increased to  $504.8
million in
 
                                       38
<PAGE>
1995  from $482.9 million  in 1993. The  Aviall Business has  spent in excess of
$84.0 million over the last five calendar years to build state-of-the-art engine
repair and overhaul facilities and to  develop programs designed to provide  the
fastest  overhaul turnaround  time in the  engine repair  and overhaul industry.
However, its operating income has declined significantly over this period. These
declines in profitability can be attributed  to a variety of factors,  including
unfavorable pricing granted to certain customers, inefficiencies in its overhaul
operations,   expenses  associated   with  reengineering   its  facilities,  and
significant costs and penalties on specific contracts where the Aviall  Business
was unable to meet contractual requirements.
 
COMPANY STRATEGY
 
    INTEGRATION PLAN
 
    The  Company's strategy following  the Aviall Acquisition  is to improve the
profitability of the Aviall Business, enhance services offered to the  Company's
customers and to maintain Greenwich's historical efficiency. The Company intends
to implement this strategy by:
 
    - ACHIEVING COST REDUCTIONS.  The Aviall Acquisition will enable the Company
      to  eliminate  duplicative  functions currently  being  performed  by both
      Greenwich and the Aviall Business in the areas of administration, finance,
      sales, marketing,  purchasing,  technical  and  field  services,  and  MIS
      systems.  The  Company  will also  eliminate  a portion  of  certain other
      corporate overhead  charges  which  have historically  been  allocated  by
      Aviall  to the Aviall  Business. In addition, the  Company will benefit by
      having Greenwich utilize the  Aviall Business' components repair  facility
      to perform work that Greenwich formerly contracted out to third parties.
 
    - IMPROVING  OPERATING EFFICIENCIES.   Greenwich believes that  it is one of
      the most efficient  providers of  gas turbine engine  repair and  overhaul
      services.  The Company intends to achieve greater production and operating
      efficiencies by realigning engine repair  and overhaul services among  its
      several  facilities. The Company also intends to integrate the MIS systems
      which have  been successfully  utilized  by Greenwich  with those  of  the
      Aviall  Business. These MIS systems are  expected to provide the Company's
      management with the ability to monitor operating costs utilizing real-time
      data while enhancing the information flow to the Company's customers.
 
    - IMPROVING  CONTRACTUAL   PERFORMANCE.     Greenwich  believes   that   its
      experienced  and entrepreneurial  management team  will enable  the Aviall
      Business to improve engine turnaround time and reduce related  contractual
      penalties  through increased productivity of the Aviall Business' domestic
      workforce and improved operating  and production efficiencies. The  Aviall
      Business  incurred contractual penalties of  approximately $6.2 million in
      1995, primarily for late deliveries on scheduled engine overhauls.
 
    STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES
 
    Upon integration  of  Greenwich  and  the  Aviall  Business,  the  Company's
long-term  strategic objectives will  be to improve  its profitability, maintain
its position as the world's largest  independent provider of gas turbine  engine
repair and overhaul services, and accelerate its growth. The Company's strategic
objectives may be summarized as follows:
 
    - SERVICE   NEW  ENGINE  LINES  AND  MODELS.    Greenwich  has  successfully
      implemented a strategy to increase the  number of engine lines and  models
      serviced  by  its facilities,  thereby  creating new  market opportunities
      while offering  its customers  one-stop shopping  capability. The  Company
      will continue this strategy and seek to develop servicing capabilities for
      additional  high by-pass and high horsepower  gas turbine engines. Many of
      the Company's  existing  customers  use  engines  for  which  the  Company
      currently   has  no   servicing  capabilities  and   development  of  such
      capabilities would present  the Company with  opportunities to expand  the
      services provided to these customers.
 
    - OFFER ADDITIONAL SERVICES TO EXISTING CUSTOMERS.  Many of the engine lines
      and  models serviced by the Aviall  Business are not currently serviced by
      Greenwich and many of  the engine lines and  models serviced by  Greenwich
      are  not currently serviced  by the Aviall  Business. The Company believes
      that
 
                                       39
<PAGE>
      opportunities exist to provide services to customers of both Greenwich and
      the Aviall Business  for engine  lines and models  previously serviced  by
      competitors.  Continental Airlines is the  only major customer serviced by
      both Greenwich and the Aviall Business.
 
    - SERVICE AERODERIVATIVE ENGINE LINES.  Certain of the engine lines serviced
      by the Company  for its  airline and cargo  customers have  aeroderivative
      engine  lines  used  in  industrial,  marine  and  military  applications.
      Greenwich has been successful in  providing service to the  aeroderivative
      gas  turbine engine  market, resulting in  sales growth  in these services
      from $10.5 million in 1992 to $19.0 million in 1995.
 
    - EXPAND SERVICE TO  REGIONAL CARRIERS.   The Aviall Business  is a  leading
      provider  of engine repair and overhaul services for the PW-100, an engine
      predominantly used by  regional carriers. The  Company believes that  this
      market  has the potential for substantial growth and that the Company will
      be well-positioned to capture a larger share of this market.
 
ENGINE SERVICES
 
    GENERAL
 
    The gas turbine engine services provided  by the Company include (i)  engine
disassembly, (ii) cleaning of parts, (iii) inspection and nondestructive testing
for  wear and damage,  including cracks, erosion and  sizing, (iv) evaluation of
necessary repairs,  (v)  the repair  or  replacement of  parts,  accessories  or
components,   (vi)  reassembly  and  (vii)   performance  testing.  The  Company
identifies and  tracks the  parts  from each  individual engine  throughout  the
overhaul  process in order to maintain the integrity of the engines it services.
The engine  services  offered by  the  Company also  include  24-hour  emergency
repairs  whereby  the  Company  will dispatch  its  personnel  to  repair engine
components or replace  parts while the  engine is mounted  on the aircraft.  The
Company  also provides customers with quick engine change ("QEC") services on an
emergency basis. QEC services enable the customer to remove the aircraft  engine
with  its components attached.  The Company then  replaces or repairs components
while the engine is  being serviced, tests the  engine and components  assembly,
and returns the refurbished product to the customer, ready for remounting on the
aircraft.
 
    There  are three primary reasons for removing an engine from an aircraft for
servicing: (i) an engine has been utilized to the point where the life limit for
one of its parts has been reached and the part must be replaced, (ii) the engine
has been damaged or (iii) the aircraft instrumentation system indicates that the
engine is not  performing optimally. The  cost of servicing  an engine that  has
been removed for these or other reasons may vary from $100,000 to more than $1.5
million, depending upon the age, size and model of engine, and the extent of the
repairs being performed.

    The  Company continues to  overhaul and provide repair  services for the low
by-pass Pratt &  Whitney JT3D line  of engines  at its Miami,  Florida and  East
Granby,  Connecticut facilities. Although production of this line of engines was
discontinued in 1978, a number of smaller charter and cargo carriers continue to
utilize these engines, which require increasing amounts of service as they  age.
Although   net  sales  from  JT3D  engine  servicing  originally  represented  a
substantial percentage of  Greenwich's engine service  net sales, Greenwich  has
significantly reduced its dependence on such sales over the past five years.
 
    The  Pratt &  Whitney JT8D  engine line  includes the  modern medium by-pass
engine models (-209, -217 and -219), which are currently in production, and  the
low  by-pass engine models  (-7 to -17)  which are no  longer in production. The
total market for medium by-pass JT8D-200s  is approximately 2,600 units and  the
Company  expects  this  market  to  grow  moderately  in  the  next  five years.
Approximately 10,300 low by-pass  JT8D engines are  currently in use  worldwide.
Certain  of  the  low  by-pass  JT8D engines  do  not  meet  present  and future
regulatory noise  reduction requirements  in the  United States  and in  Europe.
However, there are
 
                                       41
<PAGE>
several  noise reduction kits  available to JT8D  operators. The Company expects
the number of  low by-pass JT8D  engines will  decline as they  are replaced  by
newer,  more  fuel-efficient engines  and  as noise  reduction  restrictions are
phased in.
 
    The PW100 turboprop engine, manufactured by  Pratt & Whitney of Canada,  was
introduced  into commercial service in 1985.  This engine line has approximately
3,000 units in use and is overhauled  at the engine repair and testing  facility
of the Aviall Business in Fort Worth, Texas.
 
    International  Aero Engines ("IAE") received  certification from the FAA for
the V2500 engine line in 1988. Manufacturing participants in the IAE  consortium
include  Pratt & Whitney, Rolls Royce, MTU, Japanese Aero Engine Corporation and
FiatAvio. The  Aviall  Business  began developing  the  first  authorized  V2500
maintenance  facility in the western hemisphere  in 1989 and completed its first
overhaul of that  engine in 1992.  There are currently  approximately 400  V2500
engines  in use, and  the Company expects the  number of such  engines in use to
increase significantly over the next five years.
 
    While manufacturers introduce new engine lines infrequently, they  routinely
offer  derivative models of existing  engines. The Company continually evaluates
new engine  lines, models  and derivatives  to determine  whether the  potential
demand  for overhaul services justifies  the expenditures required for inventory
and modifications to  tooling and  equipment. The Company  has acquired  tooling
required  to service Rolls Royce RB211-524, and -535E4 engine models used on the
L-1011, 747, 757  and 767 aircraft,  and is presently  developing strategies  to
enter these markets.
 
    The  Company  also maintains  a limited  inventory  of aircraft  engines for
short-term rental to its overhaul  customers. Such rental engines are  generally
rented  to  customers for  the period  during which  the customers'  engines are
undergoing service by the Company's repair and overhaul operations.
 
    GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS
 
    Greenwich has, since 1987, provided engine, aircraft and accessory  services
to  the  United  States  military  and  other  domestic  and  foreign government
agencies. Greenwich acts as a subcontractor to major defense contractors, and in
fiscal 1993, Greenwich began  actively bidding as a  prime contractor to  manage
military  and  government  programs  related to  engine  and  aircraft services,
material distribution and logistics.  During 1995, the  Company was awarded  two
major  long-term contracts.  The first was  a three-year  contract from Lockheed
Martin Aircraft Services to provide  engine maintenance, training and  logistics
support  for 36 A-4M Skyhawk  aircraft for the Argentina  Air Force. The Company
anticipates that net sales  under this contract will  exceed $20.0 million.  The
second  was a  three-year contract  from Warner  Robins Air  Logistics Center to
overhaul and modify  Pratt & Whitney  JT3D engines  in support of  the U.S.  Air
Force  and U.S. Army E-8 Joint STARS  aircraft. The Company anticipates that net
sales under this contract will approximate $22 million. The Aviall Business also
services aircraft engines used in military applications.
 
    In fiscal 1993, 1994 and 1995,  Greenwich's net sales to military and  other
government  agencies accounted  for 21%, 20%  and 14% of  Greenwich's net sales,
respectively. On  a pro  forma basis,  sales to  military and  other  government
agencies  accounted for  approximately 6% of  the Company's net  sales in fiscal
1995.
 
    INDUSTRIAL AND MARINE GAS TURBINE ENGINES
 
    Industrial and marine gas turbine engines are used for an increasing variety
of applications,  including  driving  pumps  and compressors  for  oil  and  gas
pipelines,  generating  electric  power  for  electric  utilities,  cogeneration
projects and industrial applications, and powering commercial and naval vessels.
The gas turbine engine, coupled with  an exhaust heat recovery steam  generator,
is   an  attractive  technology  for  energy  cogeneration  (the  production  of
electricity and heat for process applications  in a common facility) because  it
is thermodynamically efficient and has a relatively low capital cost.
 
    The  number of high horsepower gas turbine engines for industrial and marine
use has increased significantly over the last ten years. For example,  according
to General Electric, the number of General
 
                                       42
<PAGE>
Electric  LM2500  industrial  and  marine  engines  in  use  has  increased from
approximately 440 in 1981 to approximately 1,200 in 1995. Gas turbine industrial
and marine engines generally require an initial major overhaul after five  years
of use and more frequently thereafter.
 
    In fiscal 1993, fiscal 1994, and fiscal 1995, Greenwich's net sales from the
servicing  of industrial and marine gas turbine engines and components accounted
for approximately 20%, 14% and 10%, respectively, of Greenwich's net sales. On a
pro forma basis, such sales accounted for approximately 3% of the Company's  net
sales during fiscal 1995.
 
    In  addition  to engine  manufacturers,  industrial and  marine  gas turbine
engines are  serviced by  a  number of  independently owned  service  providers,
including  the Company. Based upon  actual overhaul and refurbishment operations
performed in 1993, 1994 and 1995,  and estimates received from General  Electric
as  to the number of  General Electric LM2500 engines  scheduled for overhaul or
refurbishment for the balance  of calendar 1996 and  in calendar 1997 and  1998,
the Company believes that the opportunity to service these engines will continue
to increase.
 
    ENGINE COMPONENT AND ACCESSORY REFURBISHMENT
 
    In  addition to  its gas  turbine engine  repair and  overhaul services, the
Company also maintains an engine components repair operation in McAllen,  Texas.
This  operation provides gas turbine engine blade and vane repairs which require
a high  level of  expertise, advanced  technology and  sophisticated  equipment.
These services were primarily provided to the engine repair and overhaul service
centers  of  the Aviall  Business in  Dallas, Texas  and Prestwick,  Scotland as
support for  the  engine  repair  and overhaul  operations  conducted  at  those
facilities.  Upon completion  of the  Aviall Acquisition,  such support  will be
offered to all of the  Company's service center operating facilities,  including
those   in  Miami,   Florida  and   East  Granby,   Connecticut.  The  accessory
refurbishment  services  offered  by  the  Company  also  include  the   repair,
refurbishment and overhaul of numerous accessories and components mounted on gas
turbine  engines,  aircraft wings  and frames  or fuselages.  Engine accessories
include fuel pumps, generators and  fuel controls. Components include  pneumatic
valves,  starters and  actuators, turbo  compressors and  constant speed drives,
hydraulic  pumps,  valves  and   actuators,  electro-mechanical  equipment   and
auxiliary power unit accessories.
 
    POWER STATIONS
 
    The  Company, through  its wholly-owned  subsidiary Greenwich  Turbine, Inc.
("GTi"),  provides  worldwide   management  services  for   the  design,   sale,
refurbishment,  and  installation  of  complete gas  turbine  power  plants with
electrical power output of  up to 120 megawatts.  The services provided  include
the  repair and overhaul of industrial and marine engines, and free turbines and
modules, as well as the installation  of the equipment, start up, training,  and
on-site  testing.  Depending  on  customer needs,  GTi  offers  complete turnkey
operations or  equipment only.  In addition,  GTi offers  total turbine  on-site
services worldwide.
 
    During  fiscal  1994, Greenwich  had net  sales of  $3.0 million  from power
station design work related to the  installation of a 25 megawatt power  station
for  the national  power company  of the  West African  nation of  Senegal. This
installation was completed in the second  quarter of fiscal 1995, and  Greenwich
had  net sales of $7.0 million related  to the completion of this project during
fiscal 1995. The Company  is also designing and  installing a 40 megawatt  power
station for a municipal utility company in the United States, which installation
is  planned to be completed in fiscal  1996. Greenwich generated $1.9 million in
net sales from this project in fiscal 1995.
 
ENGINES SERVICES AGREEMENTS
 
    The Company generally provides services for regular customers under  service
agreements   providing  for  payments  based  upon  any  one  of  the  following
arrangements:
 
    - A time and materials formula normally predicated upon a negotiated  hourly
      labor  rate  multiplied by  the actual  hours expended  plus a  charge for
      materials used and other subcontracted vendor services;
 
    - Fixed price arrangements for components, modules and accessories, as  well
      as total engine overhauls based on specific work scopes; and
 
                                       43
<PAGE>
    - For  customers who wish to enter into long-term arrangements for scheduled
      engine overhauls with predefined and scheduled payment terms, the  Company
      offers  "power-by-the-hour" ("PBTH") agreements. A PBTH agreement requires
      the customer to pay an  hourly rate for engine  services over the life  of
      the  agreement based on  the greater of  actual flight hours  or a minimum
      number of monthly flight hours established in advance.
 
SALES AND MARKETING
 
    The Company's  marketing organization  is comprised  of four  marketing  and
technical  groups:  (i)  commercial aircraft  engine  services,  (ii) government
programs development, (iii) industrial and marine engine services and (iv) power
station sales. Members of  the Company's senior  management are responsible  for
the  coordination and overall performance of  each of these groups. Direct sales
personnel include key employees with contacts in their respective industries. In
addition, the Company advertises in trade, technical and industrial journals and
maintains close working relationships with engine and aircraft manufacturers, as
well as with industrial and marine engine users.
 
    The Company believes that the critical factors for customers in selecting an
engine repair  and overhaul  vendor are  dependable performance  through  prompt
turnaround  time and  engine reliability, as  well as  responsiveness, price and
flexibility. The  Company's gas  turbine engine  repair and  overhaul  operation
attempts  to differentiate itself  from the competition  through flexibility and
customer responsiveness. This includes  meeting delivery commitments,  providing
around-the-clock service, customizing workscopes to the specific requirements of
each  engine overhauled  and offering state-of-the-art  technical facilities and
expertise, including the development of new repairs. In marketing its  services,
the  Company emphasizes its experience in the repair, maintenance, refurbishment
and overhaul  of  aircraft gas  turbine  engines  of various  sizes  and  thrust
capacities  and aeroderivative gas turbine  engines. The Company also emphasizes
its  domestic  and  international  service  capabilities;  its  turnaround  time
performance;  quality of work performed; extensive technical libraries; employee
training programs; and competitive pricing structures. The Company's  turnaround
time  for completing  a gas turbine  engine overhaul depends  primarily upon the
size of the engine, availability of  tooling, equipment and required parts,  the
amount  of repair  needed for  key components  or accessories  and the Company's
ability to perform such  repairs in-house. The  Company believes that  following
the  Aviall  Acquisition,  its  Miami,  Florida  and  East  Granby,  Connecticut
facilities will be able to improve their turnaround time by having access to the
engine components repair facility in McAllen, Texas.
 
CUSTOMERS
 
    The Company provides services to more  than 500 customers, primarily in  the
commercial  aviation  industry,  the natural  resources  and  electrical utility
industries  and  government  and  military  agencies.  On  a  pro  forma  basis,
Continental  Airlines would have  accounted for 17% of  the Company's net sales,
the top five customers of the  Company would have accounted for $332.5  million,
or  47% of the  Company's net sales,  and sales to  foreign customers would have
accounted for $184.6 million, or 26%  of the Company's net sales, during  fiscal
1995.  On a pro  forma basis, during  fiscal 1995, the  Company generated $412.3
million in net sales under long-term agreements. Four of the Company's top  five
customers  were rendered services under these long-term agreements. No assurance
can be given that these agreements will be renewed upon commercially  reasonable
terms or at all. The Company's principal customers are noted below:

COMPETITION
 
    The  Company believes that  the primary competitive  factors in its industry
are quality, turnaround time,  overall customer service  and price. The  Company
believes  that  it competes  favorably on  the basis  of the  foregoing factors.
Additionally, the Company  believes that the  large number of  engine lines  and
models it services provide it with a competitive advantage. The Company does not
believe  that the  location of  its facilities  is a  significant factor  to its
customers in selecting  the Company,  because substantially all  of the  engines
serviced  by  the Company  are transported  by common  carrier to  the Company's
facilities for service.
 
    Competition for large airline engine repair and overhaul business comes from
three primary sources:  major commercial  airlines, OEMs  and other  independent
engine  service  companies. Certain  major commercial  airlines own  and operate
engine and aircraft maintenance service centers. The engine repair and  overhaul
services  provided by  domestic airlines  are primarily  for their  own engines,
although these airlines outsource a limited amount of engine repair and overhaul
services to  third parties.  Foreign airlines  which provide  engine repair  and
overhaul services typically provide these services for their own engines and for
third   parties.  The   Company  estimates  that   commercial  airlines  service
approximately 67%  of the  total  aircraft engine  repair and  overhaul  service
market,  of which 12% of such total market represents engine repair and overhaul
services performed for  third parties. OEMs  such as General  Electric, Pratt  &
Whitney,  Rolls Royce  and CFM  International also  maintain gas  turbine engine
service centers which provide repair and overhaul services for the aircraft  and
aeroderivative  gas turbine  engines they manufacture.  Other independent engine
service organizations also compete for the repair and overhaul business of other
users of large engines.
 
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
 
    The FAA and the BCAA regulate providers of services on aircraft engines  and
frames. As the holder of FAA Class 3 power plant repair station certificates for
its  facilities in Dallas, Texas; Miami,  Florida; and East Granby, Connecticut,
the Company  is  authorized to  service  all lines  and  models of  gas  turbine
aircraft  engines. These certificates  provide the Company  with the competitive
advantage of not  being required to  obtain separate FAA  certification of  each
line  of gas turbine aircraft engine it  elects to service. The Company also has
separate  FAA  airframe   and  accessory  class   ratings.  The  Company's   FAA
certificates  cover  all of  the Company's  operating  facilities in  the United
States. The Caledonian Operation holds a certification from the BCAA. Aside from
its FAA and BCAA certifications, the Company does not hold any material patents,
trademarks or licenses.
 
MANUFACTURER'S AUTHORIZATIONS
 
    The Company  has  contractual relationships  with  OEMs that  enable  it  to
provide  services to its customers on  favorable terms. These agreements enhance
the Company's  ability to  service such  engines and  outline the  training  and
support  services  which  the manufacturer  will  furnish to  the  Company. Such
contractual relationships  take the  form of  general terms  agreements or  more
formal  approval and  authorization agreements  and licensing  authorizations to
perform proprietary repairs.
 
    The  Company's  management  believes  that  its  relations  with  OEMs   are
excellent. The Company knows of no reason for OEMs to fail to renew or terminate
these  agreements. However, no assurance can be given that these agreements will
be renewed upon commercially reasonable terms or at all.
 
EMPLOYEES
 
    As of March 31, 1996,  on a pro forma  basis, the Company had  approximately
3,110 full-time employees.
 
    The Company's employees located in Miami, Florida; East Granby, Connecticut;
McAllen,  Texas; and Prestwick, Scotland are not represented by any labor union.
The Company believes that  its relations with employees  at these locations  are
good.
 
    The  Aviall Business  has approximately 570  hourly employees  in Dallas and
Fort Worth, Texas, who  are covered by  collective bargaining agreements.  Under
the  Purchase  Agreement with  Aviall, neither  Greenwich  nor the  Company will
assume these collective  bargaining agreements. See  "Risk Factors --  Potential
Labor Issues."
 
                                       45
<PAGE>
    In  order to  respond to  changes in  technology and  new types  of engines,
accessories and  components,  the Company  conducts  both formal  classroom  and
on-the-job  training programs. The training  programs include instruction on gas
turbine engines, components and airframes.  Customers and vendors often  utilize
the  Company's  training  department  to  assist  them  in  training  both their
experienced personnel and apprentices on newly assigned equipment.
 
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
 
    The Company's operations are subject to extensive, and frequently  changing,
federal,  state and local environmental  laws and substantial related regulation
by government  agencies, including  the United  States Environmental  Protection
Agency  (the  "EPA")  and  the  United  States  Occupational  Safety  and Health
Administration.  Among  other  matters,  these  regulatory  authorities   impose
requirements that regulate the operation, handling, transportation, and disposal
of  hazardous  materials, the  health  and safety  of  workers, and  require the
Company to  obtain and  maintain licenses  and permits  in connection  with  its
operations.  This extensive regulatory  framework imposes significant compliance
burdens and risks  on the  Company. Notwithstanding these  burdens, the  Company
believes  that it is in  material compliance with all  federal, state, and local
laws and regulations governing its operations.
 
    The Company is principally subject to the requirements of the Clean Air  Act
of  1970 (the  "CAA"), as  amended in  1990; the  Clean Water  Act of  1977; the
Comprehensive Environmental  Response, Compensation  and Liability  Act of  1980
("CERCLA"); the Resource Conservation Recovery Act of 1976 (the "RCRA"); and the
Hazardous  and  Solid Waste  Amendments  of 1984  ("HSWA").  The following  is a
summary of the material regulations that are applicable to the Company:
 
    The CAA  imposes  significant  requirements upon  owners  and  operators  of
facilities  that discharge air pollutants into the environment. The CAA mandates
that facilities  which  emit  air pollutants  comply  with  certain  operational
criteria and secure appropriate permits. Additionally, authorized states such as
Florida,  Connecticut, Texas, and New York  may implement various aspects of the
CAA and  develop their  own regulations  for air  pollution control.  The  Miami
facility presently holds an air emission permit for its engine test cells issued
by  Dade  County,  Florida. The  Company  intends  to conduct  an  air emissions
inventory and health and safety audit of the facility within the next six months
and, depending upon the  results of such assessments,  may find it necessary  to
secure additional permits and/or to install additional control technology, which
could  result  in the  initiation of  an enforcement  action, the  imposition of
penalties and the possibility of substantial capital expenditures.
 
    CERCLA, as amended by  the Superfund Amendments  and Reauthorization Act  of
1986  ("SARA"), is designed  to respond to the  release of hazardous substances.
CERCLA's most notable  objectives are to  provide criteria and  funding for  the
cleanup  of  sites  contaminated  by  hazardous  substances  and  impose  strict
liability on  parties  responsible for  such  contamination namely,  owners  and
operators  of  facilities  or vessels  from  which such  releases  or threatened
releases occur,  and persons  who generated,  transported, or  arranged for  the
transportation  of hazardous substances to a facility from which such release or
threatened release occurs.
 
    Ground water contamination  was documented at  the Company's Miami  facility
and  surrounding areas prior to the Company's occupation of the facility. Ground
water contamination  is also  suspected  at the  western  portion of  the  Miami
International  Airport  (where the  Company  formerly conducted  operations) and
adjoining areas. Remediation  of the  impacted ground  water by  Dade County  is
currently  underway. Under the  terms of its  lease of the  Miami facility, Dade
County has agreed to indemnify the Company for all remediation and cleanup costs
associated with pre-existing contamination,  unless such contamination  occurred
as  a result of the Company's operations. If  Dade County were to default in its
indemnification obligations, the Company could potentially incur liability under
CERCLA or Florida  law for hazardous  substances released at  or from the  Miami
facility  and for conditions  in existence prior to  the Company's occupancy. To
date, the Company  has not  been held liable  for any  investigation or  cleanup
costs at either of these sites.
 
    Ground  water  and soil  contamination  was also  detected  at the  New York
facility prior to the Company's occupancy. The sources of contamination were not
positively identified  and  may  be  related  to  past  facility  operations  or
originating  from off-site. The  site leases with  the Port of  Authority of New
York ("PANY")
 
                                       46
<PAGE>
provide that the Company will  be fully indemnified for pre-existing  conditions
and  for any  off-site contamination migrating  onto the  leasehold. The Company
will  be  responsible  for  any  increase  in  contamination  above  the  levels
established  as pre-existing conditions. If PANY defaults in its indemnification
obligations, the Company could incur liability under CERCLA and New York law for
the remediation of the contamination.
 
    On April 19, 1996, the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission issued
a letter to Aviall requiring the submittal of a plan and associated schedule for
the characterization, assessment and potential remediation of documented  levels
of  trichlorethylene in  the ground  water at  the Dallas  facility. The Company
intends to submit its plan and schedule  in a timely manner. Depending upon  the
results  of the characterization and assessment, remediation of the ground water
may be required. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Aviall has agreed to
indemnify the  Company for  all remediation  and cleanup  costs associated  with
preexisting  conditions at the Dallas facility  prior to the consummation of the
Aviall Acquisition. If remediation of the ground water is required and if Aviall
defaults on its indemnification obligations, then the Company could incur  costs
associated with such remediation.
 
    RCRA  and EPA's implementing  regulations establish the  basic framework for
federal  regulation   of  hazardous   waste.   RCRA  governs   the   generation,
transportation,  treatment, storage  and disposal  of hazardous  waste through a
comprehensive system of hazardous waste management techniques and  requirements.
RCRA  requires facilities such as the Company's that treat, store, or dispose of
hazardous waste  to  comply with  enumerated  operating standards.  The  Company
believes  that  its facilities  are in  material  compliance with  all currently
applicable RCRA requirements, hold all  applicable permits required under  RCRA,
and are operating in material compliance with the terms of all such permits.
 
    Many  states, including Florida,  have created programs  similar to RCRA for
the  purpose  of  issuing  annual  operating  permits  and  conducting   routine
inspections  of  such  facilities  to ensure  regulatory  compliance.  A routine
inspection in October 1995 by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection
("FDEP") of  the Miami  facility identified  several hazardous  waste  concerns,
including,  without  limitation, the  Company's alleged  failure to  provide the
required personnel training, spill prevention  program, and profiles of  certain
stored  waste, which may result  in the initiation of  an enforcement action and
the assessment of substantial penalties. The Company has subsequently  addressed
each of the items identified in the FDEP inspection.
 
    As part of the HSWA which amended RCRA, Congress enacted federal regulations
governing   the  underground   storage  of  petroleum   products  and  hazardous
substances. The  federal  underground  storage tank  ("UST")  regulatory  scheme
mandates  that  EPA  establish  requirements  for  leak  detection, construction
standards for  new  USTs, reporting  of  releases, corrective  actions,  on-site
practices  and record-keeping, closure  standards, and financial responsibility.
Some states, including Florida, have promulgated their own performance  criteria
for  new USTs,  including requirements  for spill  and overfill  protection, UST
location, as well  as primary  and secondary containment.  The Company  believes
that  its facilities are in  material compliance with the  federal and state UST
regulatory requirements and performance criteria.
 
    The three USTs at the Miami facility  (which have been tested tight and  are
properly  permitted  and registered)  are steel  tanks  that are  required under
Florida law  to be  retrofitted with  secondary containment  and leak  detection
devices.  To date, Dade County, which regulates  the tanks on a local level, has
not directed that the tanks be retrofitted nor has it assessed any penalties for
operation without secondary  containment or  leak detection  devices. Under  the
terms  of the lease of  the Miami facility, Dade  County agreed to indemnify the
Company for liabilities due  to pre-existing conditions,  which may include  the
USTs.  If Dade County does not provide this indemnification under the lease, the
Company could be subject to an  enforcement action and penalties for failure  to
replace  or upgrade the tanks  and could incur additional  costs in replacing or
upgrading the tanks.
 
    The USTs at the  New York facility  were transferred to  the Company at  the
time  of sale, and the Company assumed  all associated risks. In October 1994, a
jet fuel spill  occurred during the  filling of  one of the  tanks. The  Company
completed  remediation activities in  1995. Although the  New York Department of
Environmental Conservation was notified within a  week of the spill, there is  a
possibility  that  the Company  could be  subject to  an enforcement  action and
penalties.   During   a    recent   audit    conducted   at    the   New    York
 
                                       47
<PAGE>
facility,  two  additional  USTs  were  identified;  the  status  and permitting
requirements for  these  tanks  and potential  discharges  are  currently  being
assessed.  Although unknown at  this point, the  Company could be  subject to an
enforcement action  and  penalties, as  well  as  be required  to  make  capital
expenditures,  the amount  of which cannot  be estimated, to  replace or upgrade
these tanks in the future.
 
   
    Ground water and soil  contamination from spills and  leaking USTs was  also
documented   at  the  Company's  Fort   Worth,  Texas  and  Prestwick,  Scotland
facilities. Remediation of the impacted ground water and soil at the Fort  Worth
facility  was undertaken by the Company's predecessor in interest, Aviall, which
intends to seek closure from the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission.
Based upon  the  Company's recent  environmental  assessment activities  at  its
Prestwick facility, the Company anticipates that remediation of the contaminated
soil  and  ground water  will be  immaterial.  Under the  terms of  the Purchase
Agreement, Aviall has agreed  to remediate the contamination  and has agreed  to
indemnify  the Company  for all  remediation and  cleanup costs  associated with
pre-existing conditions at the facility prior to the acquisition. If Aviall were
to default  on its  indemnification obligations,  then the  Company could  incur
liability  for petroleum product releases  at or from the  Fort Worth, Texas and
Prestwick, Scotland  facilities or  from conditions  in existence  prior to  the
Company's occupancy of these facilities.
    
 
    The Company is also subject to a variety of environmental-related worker and
community  safety laws. The Occupational Safety  and Health Act of 1970 ("OSHA")
mandates  general  requirements  for  safe  workplaces  for  all  employees.  In
particular,  OSHA provides special  procedures and measures  for the handling of
certain hazardous and toxic substances.  In addition, specific safety  standards
have  been  promulgated for  workplaces engaged  in  the treatment,  disposal or
storage of hazardous waste. Requirements under state law, in some circumstances,
may mandate additional measures for  facilities handling materials specified  as
extremely  dangerous. The Company  believes that its  operations are in material
compliance with OSHA's health and safety requirements, and anticipates upgrading
its facilities at a cost that may exceed $100,000; however, the Company believes
that such  expenditures  will  not materially  affect  the  Company's  financial
conditions or operating results.
 
PROPERTIES
    The  following table  sets forth the  principal operating  facilities of the
Company. The Company will, in the normal  course of business, from time to  time

activities.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
    On  June 25, 1990, Aeronautics &  Astronautics Services U.S.A., Inc. ("AAS")
filed a complaint in the Dade  County Circuit Court, Eleventh Judicial  Circuit,
Dade  County, Florida, alleging a breach of an agreement dated February 22, 1989
for the servicing by the Company of a DC-10 aircraft and its CF6 engine. AAS  is
seeking damages in excess of $1,000,000. Based upon legal proceedings, discovery
to date, and the advice of legal counsel, management believes that the Company's
liability,  if any, will not  exceed $300,000 as a result  of this action. It is
the Company's intention to defend this lawsuit vigorously.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
 
    The Company has entered  into employment agreements  with Eugene P.  Conese,
Chairman  of the Board and  Chief Executive Officer, and  Eugene P. Conese, Jr.,
President and  Chief  Operating Officer.  Mr.  Conese's and  Mr.  Conese,  Jr.'s
employment  agreements are each for terms  of three years which expire September
30, 1996,  and provide  for an  annual  base salary  of $400,000  plus  deferred
compensation  of $80,000  per annum and  $200,000 plus  deferred compensation of
$20,000 per annum, respectively.
 
    In addition  to their  base salaries  and deferred  compensation, Eugene  P.
Conese  and Eugene P. Conese, Jr. are  entitled to share, in proportion to their
respective base salaries, an  annual bonus equal to  varying percentages of  the
Company's  income before taxes, after deducting  the amount of the annual bonus,
in each of the three years during  the term of their employment agreements.  For
fiscal 1996, the aggregate annual
 
                                       53
<PAGE>
bonus  amount that may be paid under  both agreements may not exceed $1,000,000.
The bonus for  each year of  these agreements is  equal to 2%  of the  Company's
income  before taxes,  after deducting  the amount of  the annual  bonus, in the
event that such  income is  equal to  or in excess  of $5.5  million (the  "Base
Income")  but less than  $6.5 million, and 5%  of such income  in the event that
such income is equal to or in excess of $6.5 million.
 
COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
 
    Since  1992,   the  Company's   Compensation  Committee   has  decided   all
compensation  matters  relating to  the Company's  Chairman and  Chief Executive
Officer, and President and Chief  Operating Officer, whose employment  contracts
with the Company were approved by the Compensation Committee. Messrs. Charles J.
Simons  and Chesterfield Smith  have been members  of the Compensation Committee
since its formation in 1992. General Charles  A. Gabriel became a member of  the
Compensation Committee in December 1993.
 
                              CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
 
    In  September  1993,  Greenwich  adopted a  policy  with  respect  to future
related-party transactions which requires that all such transactions be approved
by both a majority of the entire Board of Directors as well as by a majority  of
the  independent  outside directors  or by  a majority  vote of  the Greenwich's
disinterested stockholders. This policy is set forth in Greenwich's Bylaws.
 
    In December 1995, Greenwich's stockholders  approved the merger of GCL  with
and into Greenwich, pursuant to which Greenwich acquired and cancelled 7,900,000
shares  of its Common Stock  from GCL and issued  7,900,620 shares of its Common
Stock to the stockholders of GCL.
 
    Greenwich paid GCL management fees aggregating $840,000 and $120,000 for the
years ended September  30, 1993 and  1994, respectively. Greenwich's  management
agreement  with GCL  terminated upon the  completion of  the Greenwich's initial
public offering in November 1993.
 
    Interest expense  on  the  $1  million GCL  Subordinated  Note  amounted  to
approximately  $62,000 and $8,000 for the  fiscal years ended September 30, 1993
and 1994, respectively.
 
    In April 1993, Greenwich entered into simultaneous lease agreements with GCL
and an unrelated  third party for  the use  of an aircraft  engine. Under  these
agreements,  Greenwich leased the  engine from GCL  and sublet the  engine to an
unrelated third party under  an identical fee schedule.  In accordance with  the
lease  terms, Greenwich paid a monthly rent  of approximately $11,250 plus a fee
based on engine usage of  which a minimum of $5,000  a month was required.  This
agreement terminated in August 1993.
 
    During  fiscal 1994 and  1995 and for  the six months  ended March 31, 1996,
Greenwich purchased engine parts from World Air Lease, Inc. ("WAL") for  amounts
totaling $136,691, $171,930 and $8,000, respectively. In addition, during fiscal
1994,  Greenwich performed engine  repair services for  WAL amounting to $88,708
and received commissions amounting to $7,452 from WAL for the sale of an  engine
to  an unrelated third party. Such  terms are believed by Greenwich's management
to have been on a market basis  not materially different from those which  would
have  prevailed  in a  transaction on  an arm's-length  basis with  an unrelated
person. WAL  is  wholly-owned  by  Eugene P.  Conese,  the  Chairman  and  Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, and members of his immediate family, including
Eugene P. Conese, Jr., directly and through trusts.
 
    During  fiscal 1994 and  1995 and for  the six months  ended March 31, 1996,
Greenwich completed engine repair services on gas turbine aircraft engines owned
by Universal Air Lease, Inc. ("Universal"), amounting to $105,000, $103,000  and
$150,000,  respectively. Such terms are believed  by the Company's management to
have been on a market basis not materially different from those which would have
prevailed in a transaction  on an arm's-length basis  with an unrelated  person.
Universal  is wholly-owned by Eugene P. Conese, the Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, and members of his immediate family including Eugene  P.
Conese, Jr.
 
                                       54

    In  March 1995, Greenwich purchased an  aircraft engine for a purchase price
of $1,170,000 from Universal and concurrently entered into an agreement to  sell
the  engine  to a  customer  of Greenwich  under  substantially the  same terms.
Greenwich received  a  fee of  $10,000  and was  reimbursed  for its  costs  and
expenses.  An added  benefit of the  transaction was that  Greenwich was thereby
enabled to  sell  parts  to,  and obtain  certain  additional  overhaul  service
business from, the customer.
 
    In  June  1995,  Greenwich  entered  into  a  30-day  aircraft  engine lease
agreement with Pinnacle Partners One, Inc., a company in which the Chairman  and
Chief Executive Officer of the Company holds a 38.5% equity interest, to provide
a  replacement  engine for  a  customer while  the  customer's engine  was being
serviced by  Greenwich.  Concurrently with  the  entering into  of  such  lease,
Greenwich  and the customer entered into a lease  at the same rental rate and on
substantially the same other terms.
 
    In June 1995, Greenwich purchased  an unserviceable General Electric  CF6-50
engine  for $550,000  from Universal.  This engine  was disassembled  to provide
parts for an  engine being  repaired by the  Company for  an unaffiliated  third
party. The terms of the purchase of such engine by Greenwich are believed by the
Company's  management to  have been on  a market basis  not materially different
from those which would have prevailed in a transaction on an arm's-length  basis
with an unrelated person.
 
    Chesterfield  Smith, a director of the Company, is a senior partner in a law
firm  which  has  received  legal   fees  from  Greenwich  in  connection   with
professional services provided to Greenwich.

                      DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN INDEBTEDNESS
 
NEW CREDIT FACILITY
 
    Under  the  New Credit  Facility, lenders  will provide  the Company  with a
$175.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility secured by the Company's
accounts receivable, inventories  and contract  rights. Advances  under the  New
Credit  Facility will be based upon percentages of outstanding eligible accounts
receivable, inventories and other  contract rights. Pursuant  to the New  Credit
Facility,  it is  anticipated that an  aggregate of  approximately $74.4 million
will be initially borrowed pursuant to  the Initial Drawdown, $3.0 million  will
be  utilized  for outstanding  letters of  credit  and that  approximately $97.6
million will be available  for future borrowings. The  New Credit Facility  will
require  the Company  to comply  with certain  financial covenants  (relating to
minimum ratios of cash flow  to fixed charges, minimum  ratio of funded debt  to
cash  flow  and  minimum  tangible net  worth)  and  other  covenants, including
limitations on additional  debt (in excess  of the Notes,  Debentures and  other
outstanding  debt), dividends and changes in  control. See "Use of Proceeds" and
"Management's Discussion  and Analysis  of Financial  Condition and  Results  of
Operations -- Pro Forma Liquidity and Capital Resources."
 
    Under the New Credit Facility, the Company may elect to borrow at either the
lender's  prime rate, plus 0.875%  (subject to reduction to  0.5% or increase to
1.125% based  upon  the  Company's  achieving  or  failing  to  achieve  certain
financial  goals), or (ii)  the LIBOR rate (adjustable  every three months) plus
2.375%. As  at  March 31,  1996,  the lender's  prime  rate was  7.75%  and  the
three-month LIBOR rate was 5.44%.
 
8% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES DUE 2000
 
    In November and December 1993, Greenwich issued $16,999,000 principal amount
of  the Debentures. The Debentures are convertible into shares of Class A Common
Stock at any time prior to maturity, unless previously redeemed by the  Company,
at  a conversion  price of  $5.85 per  share, subject  to adjustment  in certain
events. The Debentures are not redeemable  by the Company prior to November  15,
1996.  Thereafter, the Debentures are redeemable  at a redemption price equal to
100% of the principal  amount thereof plus accrued  interest, provided that  the
Debentures may not be redeemed unless the closing price of the Company's Class A
Common  Stock  has equaled  or exceeded  $6.75 for  the previous  20 consecutive
trading days. As of March 31, 1996, there was $3,561,000 principal amount of the
Debentures outstanding,  which  are convertible  into  an aggregate  of  608,716
shares  of Class  A Common  Stock. The Debentures  are subordinated  in right of
payment to the Notes and  to all present and  future senior indebtedness of  the
Company to commercial lenders.
 
    The  Company  anticipates that  if the  price  of its  Class A  Common Stock
exceeds $6.75 in  November 1996,  it will  call all  outstanding Debentures  for
redemption.  The Company expects  that substantially all  of the Debentures will
have been converted into Common Stock prior to redemption.
 
    % SENIOR NOTES DUE 2006
 
    Concurrent with the Common  Stock Offering, the  Company is offering  $150.0
million  aggregate principal amount of its  Senior Notes Due 2006 (the "Notes").
The Notes will be  senior unsecured obligations of  the Company, will rank  PARI
PASSU  with all unsubordinated  unsecured indebtedness of  the Company, and will
rank senior  in  right  of  payment to  all  existing  and  future  subordinated
indebtedness  of the  Company. The  Notes will  also be  guaranteed on  a senior
unsecured basis by  each of Greenwich's  subsidiaries and will  be secured by  a
pledge of 65% of the capital stock of Aviall U.K.
 
    The Indenture for the Notes will contain limitations on, among other things,
(a)  the incurrence  of additional Company  indebtedness, (b)  the incurrence of
indebtedness or the issuance of  preferred stock by Restricted Subsidiaries  (as
defined),  (c) the payment of dividends  and other distributions with respect to
capital stock  of the  Company and  the purchase,  redemption or  retirement  of
capital  stock of the  Company, (d) the  making of certain  Investments, (e) the
incurrence of certain Liens, (f) the issuance and sale of capital stock of,  and
certain payments by, Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined), (g) transactions with
Affiliates, (h) the designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries, and
(i) consolidations, mergers and transfers of assets.

TERM LOANS
 
    TERM  LOAN.  In  November 1992, Greenwich  entered into a  loan and security
agreement with  a commercial  lender for  a five-year,  $9.0 million  term  loan
expiring  in November 1997  (the "Term Loan").  The Term Loan  is secured by the
Company's equipment and tooling, and bears interest at 8.75% per annum,  payable
in  59 monthly installments (including principal and interest) of $143,205 each,
and a final payment of approximately $3.3 million due on November 1, 1997. As of
March 31, 1996, the balance of the Term Loan was $5.4 million.
 
    GTC TERM LOAN.  On  May 26, 1994 Greenwich and  GTC entered into a  separate
loan  and security agreement  with a lender  for a five-year,  $8.0 million term
loan expiring in May, 1999 (the "GTC  Term Loan"). The GTC Term Loan is  secured
by  substantially all of  GTC's fixed assets (excluding  real estate), and bears
interest at a  rate of 8.99%  per annum, payable  monthly in arrears.  Principal
repayments  under  this  agreement are  to  be  made in  24  consecutive monthly
installments  of  $166,667  each  and  an  additional  36  consecutive   monthly
installments  of $111,111 each, with all such payments ending in May 1999. As of
March 31, 1996, the balance of the GTC Term Loan was $4.3 million.
 
    LOAN PAYABLE TO WAL.   In November 1992, Greenwich  entered into a loan  and
security  agreement with WAL for a five-year, $3.0 million term loan expiring in
November 1997  (the  "WAL Loan").  The  WAL Loan  is  secured by  the  Company's
equipment  and tooling, and  bears interest at  10.25% per annum,  payable in 59
monthly installments (including principal and  interest) of $50,519 each, and  a
final payment of approximately $1.1 million due on November 1, 1997. On April 1,
1994,  subject to the terms  and conditions of the GTC  Term Loan, WAL agreed to
grant a priority  lien position to  the lender under  the GTC Term  Loan on  the
Company's  tooling and  equipment. In  return, WAL  was granted  a priority lien
position on specific tooling and a first mortgage on certain real property  that
the  Company owns in East Granby, Connecticut. As of March 31, 1996, the balance
of the WAL loan was $1.8 million.
 
                          DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
 
GENERAL
 
    The Company's  authorized capital  stock consists  of 52,500,000  shares  of
capital  stock, consisting of (i) 25,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par
value $.01 per share, (ii) 25,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par  value
$.01  per share, and (iii)  2,500,000 shares of Preferred  Stock, par value $.01
per share. As of  March 31, 1996,  an aggregate of 6,279,841  shares of Class  A
Common  Stock and no shares of Class  B Common Stock were outstanding. No shares
of Preferred Stock have been issued or are currently outstanding.
 
CLASS A COMMON STOCK
 
    The Class A Common Stock has no preemptive rights and no redemption, sinking
fund or conversion provisions. All shares of Class A Common Stock have one  vote
on  any matter submitted to  the vote of stockholders.  The Class A Common Stock
does not have cumulative voting rights. Upon any liquidation of the Company, the
holders of Class A Common  Stock are entitled to  receive, share for share  with
the holders of Class B Common Stock on a pro rata basis, all assets then legally
available   for  distribution  after  payment   of  debts  and  liabilities  and
preferences on preferred  stock, if  any. Holders of  Class A  Common Stock  are
entitled  to receive dividends share for share with the holder's shares of Class
B Common Stock  when and  as declared  by the Board  of Directors  out of  funds
legally  available therefor (subject to the  prior rights of preferred stock, if
any). All shares of Common Stock are fully paid and nonassessable.
 
CLASS B COMMON STOCK
 
    In April 1996, the Company declared a  dividend to holders of record of  its
Class  A Common Stock on April 18, 1996 of one share of its Class B Common Stock
for each outstanding share of Class A Common Stock. As a result, an aggregate of
approximately 6.3 million shares of Class B  Common Stock were issued on May  8,
1996.
 
    The Class B Common Stock has no preemptive rights and no redemption, sinking
fund  or conversion provisions. Except as  otherwise required by law, the shares
of Class B Common Stock have no voting rights.
 
                                       58
<PAGE>
Under Delaware law, holders  of Class B  Common Stock are  permitted to vote  on
amendments  to  the  Company's  certificate  of  incorporation,  whether  or not
entitled to vote thereon by the certificate of incorporation, if such  amendment
would,  among  other things,  alter or  change  powers, preferences,  or special
rights of such class.
 
    Upon any liquidation of the Company, the holders of Class B Common Stock are
entitled to receive,  share for  share with  the holders  of shares  of Class  A
Common  Stock  on  a pro  rata  basis,  all assets  then  legally  available for
distribution after payments of debts of liabilities and preferences on preferred
stock, if any. Holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends
share for share with the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock when, as  and
if  declared by the Board  of Directors out of  funds legally available therefor
(subject to the prior rights of preferred stock, if any).
 
PREFERRED STOCK
 
    The Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 2,500,000 shares  of
Preferred  Stock  in  one  or  more  series and  to  fix  the  number  of shares
constituting any such  series, the voting  powers, designation, preferences  and
relative  participation, optional  or other  special rights  and qualifications,
limitations or restrictions thereof, including the dividend rights and  dividend
rate,  terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price
or  prices,  conversion  rights  and  liquidation  preferences  of  the   shares
constituting any series, without any further vote or action by the shareholders.
The  issuance of  Preferred Stock  by the  Board of  Directors could  affect the
rights of the holders of Common  Stock. For example, such issuance could  result
in a class of securities outstanding that would have preferences with respect to
voting  rights and  dividends, and  in liquidation,  over the  Common Stock, and
could (upon conversion  or otherwise)  enjoy all  of the  rights appurtenant  to
Common Stock.
 
    The  authority possessed by the Board  of Directors to issue Preferred Stock
could potentially be used to discourage attempts by others to obtain control  of
the  Company through merger, tender offer,  proxy contest or otherwise by making
such attempts more difficult to achieve  or more costly. The Board of  Directors
may  issue  the Preferred  Stock with  voting and  conversion rights  that could
adversely affect the voting power of the holders of Class A Common Stock.  There
are  no agreements or understandings for the issuance of Preferred Stock and the
Board of Directors has no present intention to issue Preferred Stock.
 
SECTION 203 OF THE DELAWARE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW
 
    Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law prevents an  "interested
stockholder"   (defined  generally  as  a  person   owning  15%  or  more  of  a
corporation's  outstanding   voting  stock)   from  engaging   in  a   "business
combination"   (as  defined  in  Section  203)  with  a  publicly-held  Delaware
corporation for three years following the date such person became an  interested
stockholder  unless (i) before such person became an interested stockholder, the
board of directors of the corporation  approved either the transaction in  which
the  interested  stockholder became  an interested  stockholder or  the business
combination; (ii) upon  consummation of  the transactions that  resulted in  the
interested  stockholder  becoming  an  interested  stockholder,  the  interested
stockholder owns at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding
at the time the transaction commenced (excluding stock held by directors who are
also officers of the corporation or by employee stock plans that do not  provide
employees with the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject
to  the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer); or (iii) following
the transaction  in which  such  person became  an interested  stockholder,  the
business  combination is approved  by the board of  directors of the corporation
and authorized at a meeting of the  stockholders by the affirmative vote of  the
holders  of two-thirds  of the outstanding  voting stock of  the corporation not
owned by the interested stockholder.
 
TRANSFER AGENT
 
    The transfer agent for the Common  Stock is American Stock Transfer &  Trust
Company, New York, New York.

<PAGE>
                        SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
 
    Upon  completion  of  the  Common  Stock  Offering,  the  Company  will have
outstanding 6,279,841 shares  of Class A  Common Stock and  9,679,841 shares  of
Class  B Common Stock (excluding 600,000 shares of Class B Common Stock issuable
upon exercise  of the  Underwriter's over-allotment  option). Of  these  shares,
6,103,747  shares of Class A Common Stock and 9,503,747 shares of Class B Common
Stock will be freely tradeable without restriction or further registration under
the Securities Act.  The remaining 176,094  shares of Class  A Common Stock  and
176,094  shares of  Class B  Common Stock  held by  an existing  stockholder are
"restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the  Securities
Act,  and may only  be sold in the  public market if  such shares are registered
under the  Securities  Act  or sold  in  accordance  with Rule  144  or  another
exemption from registration under the Securities Act.
 
    In  general, under Rule 144  a person (or group  of persons whose shares are
aggregated) who has beneficially  owned restricted securities  for at least  two
years, including persons who may be deemed "affiliates" (as defined in Rule 144)
of  the Company,  will be  entitled to  sell, within  any three  month period, a
number of  shares that  does  not exceed  the  greater of  (i)  1% of  the  then
outstanding shares of the Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock (expected
to  be equal  to approximately  62,798 shares  and 96,798  shares, respectively,
following the Common Stock Offering) or  (ii) the average weekly trading  volume
in  the Class A  Common Stock or Class  B Common Stock  during the four calendar
weeks preceding such  sale. Sales  under Rule 144  are also  subject to  certain
manner  of sale limitations, notice requirements and the availability of current
public information about the Company. A  person who has not been an  "affiliate"
of  the Company for the 90 days preceding  a sale and who has beneficially owned
restricted securities for  at least three  years will be  entitled to sell  such
shares  in the public market without restriction. Restricted securities properly
sold  in  reliance  upon  Rule  144  are  thereafter  freely  tradeable  without
restrictions or registration under the Securities Act, unless thereafter held by
an  "affiliate"  of  the Company.  For  purposes  of Rule  144,  126,095  of the
restricted shares of Class A Common  Stock and 126,095 of the restricted  shares
of  Class B Common Stock outstanding have  been beneficially owned by its holder
for over two years.
 
    The Company is  unable to estimate  the amount, timing  or nature of  future
sales  of outstanding Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock. Although the
shares of Class  B Common Stock  offered hereby will  trade separately from  the
shares of Class A Common Stock, sales of substantial amounts of either the Class
A or Class B Common Stock in the public market may have an adverse effect on the
market  price of  both the Class  A Common Stock  and the Class  B Common Stock,
because such classes  are identical  in all respects,  except that  the Class  B
Common  Stock  has no  voting rights.  The Company  and its  executive officers,
directors and principal stockholders  have agreed that for  a period of 90  days
from the date of this Prospectus, they will not offer for sale, sell, solicit an
offer  to buy, contract to sell, distribute, grant any option for the sale of or
otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly  or indirectly, any shares of  Common
Stock  or any securities  convertible into, exercisable  for or exchangeable for
any  shares  of  Common  Stock  without   the  prior  written  consent  of   the
Underwriters. See "Underwriting."

    The  Underwriting  Agreement provides  that the  obligations of  the several
Underwriters thereunder  are subject  to approval  of certain  legal matters  by
counsel  and  to  various  other conditions.  The  nature  of  the Underwriters'
obligations is such that they are committed  to purchase and pay for all of  the
above shares of Class B Common Stock offered hereby if any are purchased.
 
    The  Underwriters  propose  to offer  the  shares  of Class  B  Common Stock
directly to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover  page
of this Prospectus, and at such price less a concession not in excess of $   per
share  of Class B Common  Stock to certain other dealers  who are members of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. The Underwriters may allow, and
such dealers may re-allow, concessions not in excess of $   per share to certain
other dealers. After the public offering,  the offering price and other  selling
terms may be changed by the Underwriters.
 
    The Underwriters have been granted a 30-day overallotment option to purchase
from  the Company  up to an  aggregate of  600,000 additional shares  of Class B
Common Stock  exercisable at  the public  offering price  less the  underwriting
discount.  If the Underwriters exercise such over-allotment option, then each of
the Underwriters will have a firm commitment, subject to certain conditions,  to
purchase approximately the same percentage thereof as the number of shares to be
purchased  by it as shown in the above table bears to the total number of shares
of Class  B Common  Stock offered  hereby. The  Underwriters may  exercise  such
option  only to cover  over-allotments made in  connection with the  sale of the
shares of Class B Common Stock offered hereby.
 
    In connection with this offering, the Underwriters and selling group members
(if any) or  their respective  affiliates who  are qualifying  market makers  on
NASDAQ  may engage in passive  market making transactions in  the Class A Common
Stock and/or Class B  Common Stock on the  NASDAQ National Market in  accordance
with  Rule 10b-6A  under the  Securities Exchange Act  of 1934,  as amended (the
"Exchange Act"),  during the  two  business day  period before  commencement  of
offers  or sales of the Class B  Common Stock offered hereby. The passive market
making transactions must comply with applicable  volume and price limits and  be
identified  as such. In general, a passive market maker may display its bid at a
price not in excess  of the highest  independent bid for  such security. If  all
independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker's bid, however, such
bid  must then  be lowered  when certain  purchase limits  are exceeded. Passive
market making may stabilize the market price of the Class A Common Stock  and/or
Class B Common Stock at a level above that which might otherwise prevail and, if
commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
 Greenwich Air Services, Inc:
 
    We  have audited the  accompanying consolidated balance  sheets of Greenwich
Air Services, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of September 30, 1994 and
1995, and the related consolidated  statements of income, stockholders'  equity,
and  cash flows for  each of the three  years in the  period ended September 30,
1995. These  financial  statements  are  the  responsibility  of  the  Company's
management.  Our  responsibility is  to express  an  opinion on  these financial
statements based on our audits.
 
    We conducted  our  audits in  accordance  with generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence  supporting
the  amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles used  and  significant estimates  made  by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
    In our opinion,  such consolidated financial  statements present fairly,  in
all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30,
1994  and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of
the three  years in  the period  ended  September 30,  1995 in  conformity  with
generally accepted accounting principles.

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION
 
    ORGANIZATION  --  Greenwich Air  Services,  Inc. and  its  subsidiaries (the
"Company") overhauls, repairs and refurbishes  gas turbine aircraft engines  and
services  aeroderivative gas turbine engines used in a variety of industrial and
marine applications  including driving  pumps  and compressors  on oil  and  gas
pipelines,  generating electric power for  electric utilities and powering naval
vessels.  The  Company  also  manages   government  and  military  service   and
maintenance  programs,  and  through  its  wholly  owned  subsidiary,  Greenwich
Turbine, Inc. ("GTi"), provides management services for the sale, refurbishment,
and worldwide installation of complete gas turbine power plants with  electrical
output of up to 120 megawatts. As of September 30, 1995, the Company was a 74.1%
owned  subsidiary  of The  Greenwich Company,  Ltd. ("GCL")  (see note  14). The
Company's results of operations include all expenses on a stand-alone basis.
 
    In  April  1994,  the   Company,  through  its  newly-formed,   wholly-owned
subsidiary  Gas Turbine  Corporation, a Delaware  corporation ("GTC"), purchased
for approximately $41 million, exclusive of acquisition cost, substantially  all
of  the  assets  of  the  Gas  Turbine  Corporation  East  Granby  Division (the
"Division") of  Chromalloy  Gas  Turbine Corporation  (the  "Seller"),  and  the
capital  stock of Gas Turbine Test Corporation ("GTT") and the assumption by GTC
of certain liabilities of the Division and GTT.
 
    The acquisition was accounted for  using the purchase method of  accounting.
The  purchase price (including the  approximate $1.5 million acquisition payable
discussed in note  8) was allocated  based on  the fair market  value of  assets
acquired  and  liabilities assumed.  The following  is a  summary of  assets and
liabilities acquired, taking into consideration  the allocation of the  purchase
acquisition costs and the related financing:

    BASIS OF PRESENTATION -- Financial statements for the year ending  September
30, 1994 and 1995 and the unaudited six months ended March 31, 1995 and 1996 are
presented   on  a  consolidated  basis,  which   include  the  Company  and  its
subsidiaries GTC, GTT and GTi. Financial statements for the year ended September
30, 1993, include  only the  Company because  GTC, GTT  and GTi  were formed  or
acquired  subsequent  to  September  30,  1993.  All  significant  inter-company
transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 (INFORMATION AS OF MARCH 31, 1996 AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995
                             AND 1996 IS UNAUDITED)
 
1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION (CONTINUED)
    UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS --  The consolidated financial statements  as
of  March 31,  1996 and for  the six  months ended March  31, 1995  and 1996 are
unaudited. In the  opinion of management,  the unaudited consolidated  financial
statements   contain  all  adjustments  (consisting  only  of  normal  recurring
accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the balance sheet and  statements
of  income,  stockholders'  equity  and  cash  flows  for  such  interim periods
presented. The results of operations for the six months ended March 31, 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of the results  which may be expected for the  entire
fiscal  year. The  preparation of  the financial  statements in  conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles  requires management to make  estimates
and  assumptions that affect the reported  amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of  contingent  assets  and  liabilities at  the  date  of  financial
statements  and  the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
    ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS  -- The allowance  for doubtful accounts  is
established  by charges  to income through  the provision  for doubtful accounts
receivable. Trade accounts receivables which are considered by management to  be
uncollectible  are  charged  off  to the  allowance  and  recoveries  of amounts
previously charged off are credited to the allowance. The provision for doubtful
accounts totaled approximately $195,000, $174,000  and $2,806,000 for the  years
ended  September  30,  1993,  1994 and  1995,  respectively  and  trade accounts
receivables charged  off, net  of  recoveries, totaled  approximately  $319,000,
$283,000  and $2,170,000 for the years ended  September 30, 1993, 1994 and 1995,
respectively.  The  provision  for   doubtful  accounts  totaled   approximately
$1,334,000  and $1,288,000  for the  six months ended  March 31,  1995 and 1996,
respectively, and  trade accounts  receivable recoveries,  net of  charge  offs,
totaled  approximately $75,000  and $55,000 for  the six months  ended March 31,
1995 and 1996, respectively.
 
    INVENTORIES -- Inventories are stated at  the lower of cost or market.  Cost
of spare parts is determined by the moving weighted-average method. Reserves for
inventory  obsolescence are  recorded when,  in the  opinion of  management, the
value of specific inventory items has been impaired.
 
    DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS -- Debt issuance costs and transaction fees,  which
are  associated with  the issuance  of notes  payable, are  being amortized (and
charged to interest expense) over the term of the related loan (see Notes 3  and
7) on a method which approximates the level yield method.
 
    PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT -- Property, plant and equipment is carried at
cost.  Depreciation  and amortization  is provided  using the  straight-line and
accelerated methods  over the  estimated useful  lives of  the assets  (5 to  30
years).  When assets are retired or otherwise  disposed of, the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is  recognized for  the period.  The  cost of  maintenance and  repairs  is
charged  to income  as incurred, and  significant renewals  and betterments that
extend the lives of the assets are capitalized.
 
    The technical  library represents  service manuals  purchased from  original
equipment  manufacturers which  provide detailed  information on  the repair and
maintenance of  engines  and  components.  Depreciation  is  computed  over  the
estimated useful life of 5 years.
 
    REVENUE  RECOGNITION -- Revenue  from engine maintenance  services which are
short-term in nature, is recognized at  the time of performance test  acceptance
of  engines (completed contract method). Revenues from power plant installations
and from long-term contracts and programs are recognized under the percentage of
completion method. Revenue from  part sales is recognized  upon shipment of  the
product  to customers. Revenues billed but not earned are deferred, reflected as
a current liability, and are recognized in  the period the cost is incurred.  At
September  30, 1994 and 1995, and March 31, 1996 such deferred revenues amounted
to $694,843, $1,853,123, and $552,873, respectively.

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION (CONTINUED)
    WARRANTY COSTS -- Warranty costs are accrued based on management's  estimate
of such costs and historical sales percentages.
 
    INCOME  TAXES -- The Company is included  in a consolidated tax return filed
by its parent GCL for  the period ending November 6,  1993, after such date  the
Company has filed a separate return. Provision for income taxes is computed on a
separate  return basis limited by  consolidated realizability factors, which to-
date have not had a material impact on the Company's provision for income taxes.
 
    Effective October  1,  1993,  the Company  adopted  Statement  of  Financial
Accounting  Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under this method,
deferred tax  assets  and  liabilities are  determined  based  upon  differences
between  financial reporting  and tax bases  of assets and  liabilities, and are
measured using  the  tax  rates  and  laws that  will  be  in  effect  when  the
differences  are expected  to reverse.  Additionally, deferred  tax balances are
adjusted in periods that include the enactment of tax rate changes.
 
    Prior to  the  adoption  of  Statement  No.  109,  income  tax  expense  was
determined  using  the liability  method  prescribed by  Statement  of Financial
Accounting Standards  No.  96, Accounting  for  Income Taxes.  The  adoption  of
Statement 109 was made on a prospective basis and did not have a material impact
on the Company for the year ended September 30, 1994.
 
    CAPITAL  STOCK --  The Company is  authorized to issue  25,000,000 shares of
Class A common stock, $.01 par value, 25,000,000 shares of Class B common stock,
$.01 par value,  and 2,500,000  shares of preferred  stock, $.01  par value.  No
preferred stock has been issued to date. There were 2,116 and 32 treasury shares
as of September 30, 1995 and March 31, 1996, respectively.
 
    On  April 26, 1996,  the Company declared  a dividend to  its Class A Common
Stock holders  of record  of one  share of  its Class  B Common  Stock for  each
outstanding share of Class A Common Stock. Retained earnings was charged $62,798
in  1996 as a result of  the issuance of the 6,279,841  shares of Class B Common
Stock (based on the number of shares  of Class A Common Stock outstanding as  of
March  31,  1996).  All income  per  share,  dividend per  share,  common shares
outstanding and price per share  information has been retroactively restated  to
reflect this stock dividend.
 
    EARNINGS  PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT  SHARE -- Earnings per common and
common equivalent shares  are computed by  dividing net income  by the  weighted
average   number  of  common  shares   and  dilutive  common  share  equivalents
outstanding for  each  period. Common  share  equivalents include  the  dilutive
effect  of stock warrants and stock options  using the treasury stock method, in
applicable periods. Fully diluted earnings per common share assumes, in addition
to the above, (i) that convertible debentures were converted at the beginning of
each period with earnings  being increased for interest  expense, net of  taxes,
that would not have been incurred had conversion taken place at the beginning of
each  period and (ii) the additional dilutive effect from the stock warrants and
stock options discussed  above. Quarterly and  year-to-date computations of  per
share  amounts are made  independently; therefore, the sum  of per share amounts
for the quarters may not equal per share amounts for the year.

    RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING  PRONOUNCEMENTS -- In  March 1995, the  Financial
Accounting  Standards Board  ("FASB") issued  Statement of  Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the  Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and  for
Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed of" (SFAS No. 121), effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1995. SFAS No. 121 establishes accounting standards
for the impairment of long-lived  assets, certain identifiable intangibles,  and
goodwill  related to those assets to be  held and used and for long-lived assets
and certain identifiable intangibles  to be disposed of.  SFAS No. 121  requires
that  long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used
by  an  entity  be  reviewed  for  impairment  whenever  events  or  changes  in
circumstances  indicate  that  the  carrying  amount  of  an  asset  may  not be
recoverable. The adoption of this statement will apply to the Company as of  the
fiscal year ended September 30, 1997. The Company has not assessed the impact of
adopting this pronouncement.
 
    In October 1995, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No.  123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS No. 123). SFAS No. 123
does not rescind or interpret existing accounting rules for employee stock-based
arrangements. Under SFAS No.  123, the Company may  continue to follow  existing
rules  to recognize and measure  compensation, but they will  now be required to
disclose the pro forma amounts of net  income and earnings per share that  would
have  to  be  reported  had  the Company  elected  to  follow  the  "fair value"
recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123. SFAS  No. 123 will apply to the  Company
for the year ended September 30, 1997. The Company has not determined whether it
will  elect to recognize and measure compensation expense under SFAS No. 123 and
has not yet determined its effect on the Company's financial position or results
of operations.

    In November 1992, the Company's revolving credit lender amended and extended
the  terms  of  the then  Revolving  Credit  Facility to  a  $25,000,000 maximum
borrowing capacity  expiring  in November  1995.  Advances under  the  Revolving
Credit  Facility were based  on percentages of  eligible accounts receivable and
inventories. Interest payable monthly,  was calculated at the  greater of (i)  a
certain  bank's prime  rate of  interest, plus 1.5%,  or (ii)  the federal funds
interest rate, plus 2.0%.
 
    In April 1994, simultaneous with the closing of the acquisition of GTC,  the
Company's Revolving Credit Facility was amended and extended to include GTC as a
borrower,  and to include GTC's inventories  and accounts receivable balances as
security. The  Revolving Credit  Facility  now expires  in April  1999.  Maximum
borrowings  under the Revolving  Credit Facility were  increased to $45,000,000,
and the interest rate calculation was amended to be calculated as (i) a  certain
bank's  prime rate of  interest, plus 1.0%,  or (ii) the  federal funds interest
rate, plus 1.5%. In addition, the Company  was granted the option to fund up  to
50% of the loan borrowings at either 30, 60, or 90 day LIBOR plus 2.75%.
 
    In  March 1995,  the Company's Revolving  Credit Facility,  which expires in
April 1999, was amended  and restated to, among  other things, increase  maximum
borrowings from $45 to $55 million.
 
    As  of September 30, 1994 and 1995  and March 31, 1996, the prevailing prime
interest rate under the  Revolving Credit Facility was  8.75%, 9.75% and  9.25%,
respectively.  As  of  September 30,  1994  and  1995 and  March  31,  1996, the
prevailing LIBOR interest rate under the  Revolving Credit Facility was 7.75%  ,
8.56% and 8.19%, respectively.
 
    Revolving  Credit Facility  at September  30, 1995  and March  31, 1996, was
classified as  long-term,  as  the  Company had  the  intent  and  the  ability,
supported  by the terms  of its existing Revolving  Credit Facility, to maintain
through April 1997, principal amounts outstanding under the agreement.
 
    PROTECTED INTEREST RATE AGREEMENTS
 
    Because the Company's obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility  bears
interest  at floating  rates, the  Company is  subject to  changes in prevailing
interest rates. In September 1994,  the Company entered into protected  interest
rate  agreements ("Cap  Agreements") with  a financial  institution in  order to
reduce the  Company's exposure  to  interest rate  fluctuations. Under  the  Cap
Agreements, which expire in September

1997,  the  Company  has  $12,500,000 of  prime  rate  coverage  protection, and
$12,500,000 of 90  day LIBOR rate  protection. If the  prevailing interest  rate
exceeds  the contracted rate, the financial  institution will pay to the Company
an amount equal to  the excess. For  the remainder period  of coverage, the  Cap
Agreements are structured as follows:

    Transaction  fees  paid  in connection  with  the Cap  Agreements  are being
amortized to interest expense over  the life of the  Cap Agreements on a  method
which  approximates  the  level  yield method.  Any  payments  by  the financial
institution will  reduce  the  interest costs  associated  with  the  borrowings
protected.
 
    TERM LOANS
 
    TERM  LOAN.  In November 1992, the  Company entered into a loan and security
agreement with  a commercial  lender (the  "Term Lender")  for a  five year,  $9
million  term loan expiring in November 1997 (the "Term Loan"). The Term Loan is
secured by the Company's equipment and tooling, and bears interest at 8.75%  per
annum,  payable in 59 monthly installments (including principal and interest) of
$143,205 each, and a final payment of approximately $3.3 million due on November

    GTC TERM LOAN.  On May 26, 1994 the Company and GTC entered into a  separate
loan  and security agreement  with the Term  Lender for a  five year, $8 million
term loan expiring on May 26, 1999 (the  "GTC Term Loan"). The GTC Term Loan  is
secured  by substantially all of GTC's fixed assets (excluding real estate), and
bears interest  at  a rate  of  8.99% per  annum,  payable monthly  in  arrears.
Principal  repayments  under this  agreement are  to be  made in  24 consecutive

    LOAN  PAYABLE TO WAL.  In November 1992, the Company entered into a loan and
security agreement  with World  Air Lease,  Inc. ("WAL"),  an affiliate  of  the
Company,  for a five year,  $3 million term loan  expiring in November 1997 (the
"WAL Loan"). The WAL Loan is secured by the Company's equipment and tooling, and
bears  interest  at  10.25%  per  annum,  payable  in  59  monthly  installments
(including  principal  and interest)  of $50,519  each, and  a final  payment of
approximately $1.1 million due on November 1, 1997. On April 1, 1994, subject to
the terms and conditions of  the GTC Term Loan, WAL  agreed to grant a  priority
lien  position to  the Term  Lender on the  Company's tooling  and equipment. In
return, WAL was granted  a priority lien position  on specific tooling, and  was
granted  a first mortgage on certain real property that the Company owns in East
Granby, Connecticut.

minimum working capital, limitations on  the payment of dividends,  restrictions
on  capital expenditures,  restrictions on  certain additional  indebtedness and
requirements to maintain certain financial ratios.

10. STOCK OPTION, STOCK WARRANTS, AND OTHER PLANS
 
    1992 STOCK OPTION PLAN
 
    In July 1992, the Company's Board of Directors and stockholders approved the
establishment by the Company  of the 1992  Employee Incentive and  Non-Qualified
Stock Option Plan (the "1992 Stock Option Plan"), pursuant to which officers and
other   key  employees  of  the  Company   can  receive  incentive  options  and
non-qualified options  to  purchase  an  aggregate  of  600,000  shares  of  the
Company's Common Stock.
 
    The  exercise price for shares purchased  upon the exercise of non-qualified
options  granted  under  the  1992  Stock  Option  Plan  is  determined  by  the
Compensation  Committee at the  time of option  grant. The exercise  price of an
incentive stock option granted under the 1992 Stock Option Plan must be at least
equal to 100%  of the fair  market value of  the Common Stock  on the date  such
option  is granted (110% of  the fair market value  for stockholders who, at the
time the option is granted, own more  than 10% of the total combined classes  of
stock  of the Company or any subsidiary).  No employees may be granted incentive
stock options in any year for shares  having a fair market value, determined  as
of the date of grant, in excess of $100,000.
 
    No incentive option granted under the 1992 Stock Option Plan may have a term
of  more than 10  years (five years  for 10% or  greater stockholders). Options,
whether incentive or nonqualified  options, generally may  be exercised only  if
the  option  holder  remains  continuously  associated  with  the  Company  or a
subsidiary from the date of grant to the date of exercise. However, options  may
be  exercised upon termination of employment or  upon the death or disability of
an employee within certain specified periods.
 
    The Company may grant non-qualified  options with exercise prices which  are
less  than the fair market value  of the Common Stock on  the date of grant. The
Company does not intend to grant non-qualified options at exercise prices  which
are  less than 85% of the  fair market value of the  Common Stock on the date of
grant.
 
    On May  20,  1994,  the  Company granted  certain  officers  and  other  key
employees the option to purchase an aggregate of 213,000 shares of the Company's
common stock. These incentive options were granted at an exercise price of $3.00
per share and are exercisable beginning one year after the date of grant for 25%
of  the  shares, with  the  balance to  become  exercisable cumulatively  in two
installments each  year  thereafter of  25%  and 50%  in  years two  and  three,
respectively.  During fiscal 1995,  the Company granted  other key employees the
option to purchase  an additional  36,000 shares of  common stock  at an  option
price  of $3.50 for  20,000 shares and  $6.19 for 16,000  shares. During the six
months ended  March 31,  1996, the  Company granted  the option  to purchase  an
additional  130,000 shares of common stock to key employees at an average option
price per share of $11.31.

of  a stock option plan (the "1994 Stock Option Plan") pursuant to which outside
directors of the Company can receive incentive options and non-qualified options

    As  of March 31, 1996, 74,296 shares  of the Company common stock (18,000 as
of September 30, 1995) were issued  in connection with the cashless exercise  of

    1995 STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
 
    In  July 1992, the Company's Board  of Directors authorized and directed the
Compensation Committee of the Board and the officers of the Company to develop a
stock purchase plan  available to Company  employees to serve  as an  additional
employment incentive.
 
    During  1995, the Company's Board of Directors and stockholders approved the
adoption of the "1995 Stock Purchase Plan" as developed by Company's management.
Under this plan all full-time  employees with at least  one year of service  may
purchase up to an aggregate of 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The
1995  Stock Purchase  Plan allows  participating employees  to purchase, through
payroll deductions, shares of  the Company's common stock  at 85 percent of  the
fair  market  value  at  specified times.  During  fiscal  1995,  employees have
purchased a total of 37,884 shares at $3.46 per share and at September 30, 1995,
162,116 shares remained available for purchase through the plan. During the  six
months  ended  March 31,  1996, employees  have  purchased an  additional 24,000
shares at $9.27 per share and at March 31, 1996, 138,116 shares remain available
for purchase through the plan.

    During 1990, the  Company adopted a  401(K) Plan (the  "Plan") which  allows
eligible employees to contribute to the Plan up to 25% of their compensation for
services  rendered in any year, not to exceed amounts prescribed under statutory
limits. The  Company  may  elect  to  make contributions  to  the  Plan  at  its
discretion.  The Company contributions to the Plan for the years ended September
30, 1993,  1994,  and  1995  were approximately  $18,000,  $20,000  and  $28,000
respectively. The Company has made no such contribution for the six months ended
March 31, 1996.
 
11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
    In  connection  with  the  acquisition  of  its  assets  in  1987,  and  the
refinancing of its loans in  1990, the Company paid  to GCL transaction fees  of
$385,000  and $1,000,000,  respectively. Such  amounts are  included in deferred
financing costs  in the  accompanying balance  sheets and  are being  amortized,
using  a method which approximates the level  yield method, over the life of the
assets (seven years) or the period the applicable financing is outstanding  (not
to exceed three years), respectively.
 
    The  Company paid GCL management fees  aggregating $840,000 and $120,000 for
the years  ended  September  30,  1993 and  1994,  respectively.  The  Company's
management  agreement  with GCL  terminated  effective with  the  initial public
offering in November 1993, as such, no management fees were paid in fiscal  year
ended September 30, 1995.
 
    In  April 1993, the Company entered  into simultaneous lease agreements with
GCL and an unrelated third party, for the use of an aircraft engine. Under these
agreements, the Company leased the engine from  GCL and sublet the engine to  an
unrelated  third party under  an identical fee schedule.  In accordance with the
lease terms, the Company both paid  and received a monthly fee of  approximately
$11,250,  plus a fee based on engine usage  of which a minimum of $5,000 a month
was required. This agreement terminated in August of 1993.
 
    During fiscal 1994, 1995  and for the  six months ended  March 31, 1996  the
Company  purchased engine parts from WAL  totaling $136,691, $171,930 and $8,000
respectively. During 1994, the Company received brokerage commissions  amounting
to $7,452 from WAL for the sale of an engine to an unrelated third party.
 
    During  fiscal 1994, 1995 and  for the six months  ended March 31, 1996, the
Company performed  engine parts  repair  services for  WAL and  another  company
affiliated through common ownership aggregating approximately $105,000, $103,000
and $150,000, respectively.
 
    In March 1995, the Company purchased an aircraft engine from another company
affiliated  through common ownership and  concurrently entered into an agreement
to sell the engine to a customer under substantially the same terms. The Company
received a  brokerage  fee of  $10,000  and was  reimbursed  for its  costs  and
expenses.
 
    In  June 1995, the  Company entered into an  aircraft engine lease agreement
with a  company affiliated  through common  ownership to  provide a  replacement
engine  while a customer's engine was being served by the Company. Concurrent to
entering into the lease, the Company  and the customer entered into a  sub-lease
under substantially the same terms.
 
    In  June  1995,  the  Company  purchased  an  unserviceable  engine  at  its
approximate fair  market value  of  $550,000 from  an affiliated  company.  This
engine  was disassembled to  provide parts for  an engine being  repaired by the
Company for an unaffiliated third party.
 
    A director  of the  Company is  a senior  partner in  a law  firm which  has
received  legal fees from  the Company in  connection with professional services
provided to the Company.

    The Company's existing and anticipated customers include passenger airlines,
air  freight and package  carriers, industrial and  marine users, government and
leasing companies. Currently,  economic and other  factors may adversely  affect
the  airline industry, particularly  the major passenger  airlines. As a result,
certain of these customers may  pose credit risks to  the Company. To date,  the
Company  has  not been  significantly impacted  by  these factors.  However, the
Company cannot  predict  whether  these conditions  will  adversely  affect  the
Company's results of operations in the future.
 
    The  Company has entered into employment agreements with two of its officers
expiring on September 30, 1996. Under  such agreements, as amended, the  Company

$400,000  and  $200,000 per  annum, plus  deferred  compensation of  $80,000 and
$20,000, respectively.  Additionally  these  officers  are  entitled  to  annual
bonuses,  based on the Company achieving certain pre-determined base income. For
fiscal 1996 the bonuses are not to exceed an aggregate of $1,000,000 per annum.
 
    The Company is a  generator of hazardous waste  and is therefore subject  to
many  Federal and State environmental laws and regulations. The Company believes
that its waste management practices have  been and continue to be in  compliance
with  all applicable environmental laws and regulations and that this limits the
potential for  releases  of hazardous  substances  at each  of  its  facilities.
Although unaware of any violations, the Company could be held liable as a former
operator  for releases of hazardous substances at the location where the Company
formerly conducted all of its operations. In addition, at certain facilities the
Company may be operating without adequate  permits or may have exceeded  certain
permit  limits. As a result, the Company  may be subject to enforcement actions,
environmental remediation, installation of appropriate control technology and/or
penalties. The  ultimate  outcome  of  these matters  are  not  certain  and  no
provision has been made in the accompanying financial statements.
 
    It  is anticipated that new regulations,  or new interpretations of existing
environmental regulations, which the Company  is subject to, may be  promulgated
which  may necessitate material capital expenditures on the part of the Company.
The  Company  is  currently  unable  to  estimate  the  extent  of  any  capital
expenditures that may be required in the future to effect such compliance.
 
    The  Company  is  a defendant  in  a  lawsuit with  a  previous  customer in
connection with an aircraft maintenance service agreement, for the repair of  an
aircraft and engine in which damages in excess of $1,000,000 against the Company
are  claimed. Based upon legal proceedings, discovery to date, and the advice of
legal counsel management believes that the Company's liability, if any, will not
exceed $300,000 as a result of this action, and it is the Company's intention to
defend this suit vigorously.
 
13. MAJOR CUSTOMERS
    Sales to one major unaffiliated customer during the year ended September 30,
1995, amounted to  $34,779,000 representing approximately  18% of the  Company's
net sales for such period. No one customer represented over 10% of sales for the
years  ended September 30, 1993 and 1994 and  for the six months ended March 31,
1995. Sales to  two major  unaffiliated customers  during the  six month  period
ended  March 31,  1996, amounted  to $11,954,000  and $12,272,000, respectively,
representing approximately 10% each of the Company's net sales for such period.
 
    Sales under government contracts and sub-contracts aggregated 21%, 20%, 14%,
13% and 13% of total net sales for the years ended September 30, 1993, 1994  and
1995  and  for the  six  months ended  March  31, 1995  and  1996, respectively.
Government contracts are customarily subject to cancellation or renegotiation at
the Government's election. However, the Company is not aware of any such actions
or pending actions that would have a material affect on the Company's  financial
position or results of operations.
 
    Sales  to foreign customers aggregated  13%, 21%, 18%, 19%  and 14% of total
net sales for the years ended September 30, 1993, 1994 and 1995 and for the  six
months  ended March 31, 1995 and 1996, respectively. The Company's customers are
located throughout  the world,  and  those outside  the  United States  are  not
concentrated in any one geographic area.
 
14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
    On  October 18,  1995, the  Company filed  with the  Securities and Exchange
Commission a Registration  Statement on  Form S-3, registering  the offering  of

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors
  and Shareholders of Aviall, Inc.
 
    In  our opinion,  the accompanying combined  balance sheets  and the related
combined statements of operations and changes  in Aviall investment and of  cash
flows  present fairly, in  all material respects, the  financial position of the
Engine Services Division of  Aviall, Inc. (the "Company")  at December 31,  1994
and  1995, and the  results of its operations  and its cash  flows for the years
then ended, in conformity with  generally accepted accounting principles.  These
financial  statements are  the responsibility  of the  Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion  on these financial statements based  on
our  audits.  We conducted  our audits  of these  statements in  accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements  are
free  of material  misstatement. An audit  includes examining, on  a test basis,
evidence supporting the  amounts and  disclosures in  the financial  statements,
assessing  the  accounting principles  used  and significant  estimates  made by
management, and  evaluating the  overall  financial statement  presentation.  We
believe  that our  audits provide a  reasonable basis for  the opinion expressed
above.

    In  our opinion, the financial statements  referred to above present fairly,

                            ENGINE SERVICES DIVISION
                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
NOTE 1 -- BACKGROUND
    Aviall,  Inc.'s  ("Aviall")  engine  services  division  (the  "Division" or
"Engine Services") is engaged in the maintenance and overhaul of turbine engines
and components used primarily in  commercial aviation and provides its  services
on  a worldwide basis through  two major repair facilities  in Dallas, Texas and
Prestwick, Scotland,  supported  by a  components  repair facility  in  McAllen,
Texas. The engine repair and components repair operations located in Dallas, Ft.
Worth and McAllen, Texas are U.S. divisions of Aviall Services, Inc., which is a
wholly  owned  subsidiary  of  Aviall.  The  Prestwick,  Scotland  engine repair
operation,  or  Aviall  Limited  ("Aviall  Ltd"),  is  a  wholly  owned  foreign
subsidiary of Aviall.
 
    Based  on a decision by  the Aviall Board of  Directors on January 24, 1996,
Aviall signed a letter of intent with Greenwich Air Services, Inc. ("GASI")  for
the sale of the Division. Aviall expects to sign a definitive agreement in April
1996  and to complete the sale in 1996. In accordance with Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 30, Aviall recorded in its consolidated financial statements a
"discontinued operations" charge of  $212.5 million as of  December 31, 1995  to
reflect  its estimate of  the loss it  will incur upon  sale of the discontinued
operations, primarily  related  to  the  Division. These  costs  have  not  been
recorded   in  the  separate  Division  1995  financial  statements  since  this
discontinued operations  treatment is  not appropriate  at the  Division  level.
Direct  costs approximating $55 million will be  incurred by Aviall on behalf of
the Division and,  accordingly, will  be reflected in  the Division's  financial
statements in 1996. Upon completion of the sale, GASI will allocate its purchase
price  in accordance  with Accounting Principles  Board Opinion No.  16 and thus
will establish  different  bases of  certain  assets and  liabilities  than  are
reflected in these financial statements.
 
    Aviall operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of Ryder System, Inc. ("Ryder")
until  December 7, 1993 (the "Distribution Date"), when Ryder distributed Aviall
stock to Ryder shareholders (four  shares to one share)  as a tax free  dividend
(the  "Distribution"). The  Distribution established  Aviall as  a publicly held
corporation separate from Ryder.
 
NOTE 2 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
    BASIS OF  PRESENTATION.    The accompanying  combined  financial  statements
include  the operations, assets and liabilities of the Division as a stand-alone
entity.  The  financial  statements   exclude  Aviall's  corporate  assets   and
liabilities  not specifically identifiable  to the Division,  except for certain
prepaid expenses and accrued expenses  which were allocated based on  consistent
and reasonable allocation methods. All significant intercompany transactions and
accounts  have been  eliminated in  combination. These  financial statements are
presented on a combined rather  than consolidated basis because the  controlling
financial  interest did not rest directly or indirectly in one of the businesses
included in these combined  financial statements. Aviall Ltd  has a fiscal  year
end  of November 30  to facilitate combination of  its financial statements. The
fair value of current assets and liabilities approximates carrying value.
 
    Principally due  to the  use  of estimates  and allocations,  the  financial
information  included herein may not  necessarily reflect the financial position
and results of operations of  the Division in the  future or what the  financial
position and results of operations of the Division would have been had it been a
separate,  stand-alone entity during the  periods presented. Management does not
consider it practicable to  estimate what the results  of operations would  have
been had the Division operated as a separate, stand-alone entity.
 
    The  process of preparing financial  statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles  requires the  use of  estimates and  assumptions
regarding  certain  types of  assets, liabilities,  revenues and  expenses. Such
estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions  and events as of the  date
of  the financial statements.  Accordingly, upon settlement,  actual results may
differ from estimated amounts.

               NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
NOTE 2 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
    REVENUE RECOGNITION.  Income from engine maintenance services is  recognized
at  the time of performance test acceptance of engines (the "completed contract"
method).   Revenue    from   long-term    fixed-price   contracts,    such    as
"power-by-the-hour"   or   "flat-rate"  contracts,   is  recognized   under  the
"percentage-of-completion" method.
 
    INVENTORIES.  Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is
determined on the  basis of average  cost of materials  and supplies and  actual
cost  for labor and overhead included  in work-in-process. Provision is made for
estimated excess  and obsolete  inventories. All  inventory available  for  sale
during  the course  of the  normal business cycle  has been  included in current
assets.
 
    PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT.  Property, plant and equipment are carried at
cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using
the straight-line method. Lives assigned to asset categories are 10 to 20  years
for  buildings and improvements and  5 to 12 years  for machinery, equipment and
tooling.
 
    INTANGIBLE ASSETS.   Intangible assets, principally  goodwill, are  reported
net  of accumulated amortization of  $22.3 million in 1994  and $26.1 million in
1995. Goodwill represents the excess of  the purchase price over the fair  value
of  the net assets acquired and is amortized using the straight-line method over
forty years.
 
    The Division has reviewed the net realizable value of its intangible assets,
including goodwill, through  an assessment  of the estimated  future cash  flows
related  to such assets and has concluded that there is no impairment of the net
carrying value.
 
    ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS.  A liability for environmental assessments and  cleanup
is  accrued  when it  is probable  a loss  has been  incurred and  is estimable.
Generally, the timing of these accruals coincides with the identification of  an
environmental  obligation  through the  Division's  internal procedures  or upon
notification from regulatory agencies.
 
    FOREIGN EXCHANGE AND FORWARD  EXCHANGE CONTRACTS.   Aviall Ltd utilizes  the
U.S.  dollar  as  its  functional currency.  Translation  gains  and  losses are
included in  the  Division's  earnings.  Aviall  enters  into  forward  exchange
contracts  on behalf of  the Division to  hedge certain of  its foreign currency
commitments. Gains  and  losses  on  forward contracts  are  recognized  by  the
Division  concurrently with the  related transaction gains  and losses (see Note
3). Total  translation  and  transaction  gains  or  (losses)  included  in  the
Division's  earnings were  $(3.4) million,  $(0.5) million  and $1.2  million in
1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.
 
    INCOME TAXES.   The Division accounts  for income taxes  in accordance  with
Statement  of  Financial Accounting  Standards No.  109, "Accounting  for Income
Taxes," which was adopted effective January 1, 1993. The adoption was made on  a
prospective  basis and did  not have a  material impact on  the Division for the
year ended December 31, 1993.
 
    Prior to  the  Distribution  Date,  the Division  was  included  in  Ryder's
consolidated federal income tax return. Thereafter, the Division was included in
Aviall's  consolidated  federal  income  tax  return.  However,  the  income tax
provision of the Division was calculated as if the Division had filed a separate
consolidated federal income tax return (see Note 10).
 
    IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS.   In March  1995, the Financial  Accounting
Standards   Board  ("FASB")  issued  Statement  No.  121,  "Accounting  for  the
Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived Assets to  be Disposed  of"
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. FASB Statement No.
121  requires that long-lived assets be  reviewed for impairment whenever events
or changes in

circumstances indicate  that  the  carrying  amount of  the  asset  may  not  be
recoverable.  The adoption of this  statement in 1996 is  not expected to have a
material effect on the Division's financial position or results of operations.
 
    AVIALL INVESTMENT.  Aviall investment represents Aviall's investment in  the
Division and includes the Division's equity as well as its net payable to Aviall
resulting from cash and non-cash transfers and intercompany allocations.
 
NOTE 3 -- TRANSACTIONS WITH AVIALL
 
    GENERAL  AND  ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES.    Aviall provided  certain corporate
general and administrative services to the Division, including legal,  treasury,
human  resources and  finance, among  others. Prior  to the  Distribution, Ryder
provided certain corporate general and administrative services to Aviall.  Costs
related  to  these services  were  allocated to  the  Division on  a  basis that
approximated either the proportional share of the Division's usage of the actual
services provided or a representative share of certain corporate fixed expenses.
Management believes these allocations are reasonable.
 
    Total allocated expenses included  in "Selling and Administrative  Expenses"
in  the accompanying Combined Statements of Operations were $10.9 million, $14.3
million and $16.0 million in 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively. These historical
amounts are not necessarily representative of the costs that the Division  would
have incurred as a stand-alone entity.
 
    INTERCOMPANY  FINANCING  AND  INTEREST  EXPENSE.   Aviall  manages  cash and
financing requirements of all its  business segments. The accompanying  Combined
Balance  Sheets reflect Aviall's total investment  in the Division, a portion of
which represents general corporate financing. Aviall has allocated its corporate
interest expense to the Division based on Aviall's average consolidated interest
rate applied to the debt portion of the "Aviall Investment" which was calculated
based on Aviall's  consolidated debt  to equity ratio.  Information relating  to
interest  bearing  advances  from  Aviall and  related  interest  allocations is
presented below (in thousands):

</TABLE>
 
    "Interest Expense" reflected in the  Combined Statements of Operations  does
not necessarily reflect the interest expense the Division would have incurred as
a stand-alone entity.
 
    Because  Aviall manages the cash and financing requirements of the Division,
it is not practicable to estimate cash paid for interest and income taxes.
 
    CORPORATE  INSURANCE   AND  EMPLOYEE   BENEFIT  PROGRAMS.     The   Division
participated  in  Aviall's combined  risk management  programs for  property and
casualty insurance  and  certain  employee health  benefit  programs,  including
medical  and dental benefits.  The Division was  charged amounts which primarily
represented an  allocation  of third  party  premiums and  self-insured  losses,
including  estimates of claims incurred but  not reported. Costs allocated under
these programs were $8.7  million, $7.8 million and  $9.0 million in 1993,  1994
and 1995, respectively.
 
    GUARANTEES  OF DEBT BY  AVIALL.  "Long-Term Debt"  reflected in the Combined
Balance Sheets  is an  obligation of  Aviall  Ltd. Aviall  Ltd's debt  with  the
European  Investment Bank ("EIB") is supported by letters of credit issued under
Aviall's credit  facility.  In  addition, Aviall  Ltd's  L4.0  million  (British
pounds) unsecured bank overdraft facility is guaranteed by Aviall.

               NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
NOTE 3 -- TRANSACTIONS WITH AVIALL (CONTINUED)
    SECURITY  FOR AVIALL  DEBT.   On March 25,  1996, Aviall  amended its credit
facilities to provide for a maturity date of April 30, 1997. The amended  credit
facilities contain various covenants, including financial covenants, limitations
on debt and limitations on capital expenditures. In the absence of obtaining the
amended  agreement, Aviall would have been in default of the financial covenants
of  its  previously  outstanding  credit  facilities.  Aviall's  amended  credit
facilities  are secured by  substantially all of  the Division's domestic assets
and 65% of the stock of Aviall Ltd.
 
    FORWARD EXCHANGE CONTRACTS.  Aviall has forward exchange contracts in  place
to  minimize exposure from foreign exchange  fluctuations for certain Aviall Ltd
British pound denominated expenditures and debt. Aviall does not use  derivative
financial  instruments for trading purposes. Aviall had foreign currency forward
contracts outstanding at December  31, 1994 and 1995  to purchase L21.4  million
and  L11.9  million  (British  pounds), respectively,  at  various  future dates
through September 1996.  At December  31, 1994, contract  exchange rates  ranged
from U.S. $1.54/L1 to $1.60/L1 and at December 31, 1995, contract exchange rates
ranged  from  U.S. $1.53/L1  to $1.60/L1.  At  December 31,  1994 and  1995, the
estimated fair value  of these contracts  was $33.5 million  and $18.4  million,
respectively, which approximates the contracts' nominal amounts. Although Aviall
is  exposed to certain  losses in the  event of nonperformance  by the financial
institutions which are counter parties  to these forward exchange contracts,  it
does not anticipate nonperformance.
 
NOTE 4 -- ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ALLOWANCES
    The  Division  provides  services  to  a  wide  variety  of aviation-related
businesses, including several  commercial airlines.  Economic conditions  within
the  commercial airline industry have been weak  over the past several years due
to a  number of  factors.  Management believes  that sufficient  allowances  for
doubtful  accounts have been provided as of  December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995 in
relation to its total accounts receivable balance as of each date. However,  the
Division   would  incur  significant  losses  in  the  event  of  bankruptcy  or
liquidation of one of  its major customers.  The following is  a summary of  the
accounts receivable allowances (in thousands):

NOTE 6 -- LONG-TERM ENGINE MAINTENANCE CONTRACTS
    The Division is a  party to several  long-term engine maintenance  contracts
with  customers for specified engine fleets over specific periods of time. These
contracts, with remaining terms at December 31, 1995 of one to three years,  use
long-term  contract accounting which  requires various estimates  to predict the
contract profitability over the  life of the  contract. Revenues are  recognized
upon test acceptance based on rates per hour (power-by-the-hour) applied to each
completed  engine's  hours flown  since last  shop  visit. Customers  are billed
monthly for  fleet hours  flown  during the  period.  Costs are  recognized  for
completed  engines based on an average gross  margin assumption over the life of
the contract.
 
    Estimates used include failure removal rates, productivity changes, overhaul
cost projections and  customer and  fleet specific variables.  Changes to  these
estimates  and the resulting cumulative contract-to-date catchup adjustments may
result in material  changes to profitability  in any given  time period.  During
1995,  negative operating results produced a cumulative contract-to-date catchup
adjustment of $5.9  million. The current  estimates used represent  management's
best   estimate  of  expected   future  contract  results   based  on  available
information. Actual results  could differ significantly  (positive or  negative)
from  estimates  currently used  should operating  performance or  other factors
change.
 
    The balance  sheet  components  associated with  these  long-term  contracts
include  deferred receivables, costs, charges  and revenues. Deferred receivable
is the  contract-to-date cumulative  variance between  the amounts  invoiced  at
contract  rates and the average rate over  the contract's life. Deferred cost is
the cumulative difference between the costs projected to date based on the total
estimated contract profitability  and the  actual costs incurred  to date.  This
amount  is classified according  to the remaining term  of the related contract.
Deferred charge (revenue)  is the  cumulative variance between  the fleet  hours
flown at the contract rate per hour and the revenue recognized to date.
 
    The  following  table  sets  forth  the  balance  sheet  components  of  the
Division's long-term engine maintenance contracts:

    The  Division's  financing   is  provided  primarily   by  Aviall's   credit
facilities.  In  addition, Aviall  Ltd  has borrowings  directly  from financial
institutions in the United  Kingdom. Aviall Ltd's  credit facilities consist  of
(1)   two  ten-year  amortizing  unsecured  term  loans  with  the  EIB  payable
semiannually through  1996 ("Loan  A and  Loan B");  (2) a  ten-year  amortizing
unsecured  term loan with the EIB  payable semiannually through 1998 ("Loan C");
and (3)  a L4.0  million unsecured  overdraft facility  with a  bank payable  on
demand (the "Overdraft Facility").
 
    The  interest rates on Loan A and Loan  B are 7% and 7.5%, respectively, and
the interest rate  on Loan C  is 9.3%. Borrowings  under the Overdraft  Facility
bear interest at the London Interbank Offering Rate plus 1.625%.

    If the transaction described in  Note 1 is completed,  it is likely the  EIB
loans  will be repaid in 1996. At December 31, 1994 and 1995, the estimated fair
value of the Division's debt approximated the outstanding net book value.
 
NOTE 10 -- INCOME TAXES
    Prior to  the  Distribution  Date,  the Division  was  included  in  Ryder's
consolidated federal income tax return. Thereafter, the Division was included in
Aviall's consolidated federal income tax return.
 
    For  the periods presented, the income  tax provision has been determined as
if the Division was a stand-alone entity filing a separate tax return, with  the
exception  of the treatment of Net  Operating Losses (NOL's). In connection with
the Distribution, Ryder and  Aviall entered into a  tax sharing agreement  which
provided  for the  payment of taxes  and receipt  of tax refunds  for periods up
through the Distribution Date and  provided for various administrative  matters.
Because  of the  terms of  this agreement, Aviall  elected to  carry forward its
subsequent NOL's.  Similarly,  the  tax  provision for  the  Division  has  been
determined assuming no carry back of the 1994 and 1995 NOL's.

    Aviall  has an NOL carryforward for U.S.  income tax purposes related to the
Division of  $41.1  million expiring  in  2009  and 2010.  Based  on  historical
earnings  levels, the Division believes that near term taxable income may not be
sufficient to realize all deferred tax assets, including the NOL's. Accordingly,
a valuation allowance has been established to reflect the amount of deferred tax
assets considered realizable. The Division's NOL carryforward will not  transfer
to the buyer.
 
    Deferred  taxes have not  been provided on  temporary differences related to
the Division's investment  in Aviall  Ltd. These  temporary differences  consist
primarily of undistributed earnings of $31.7 million and

$36.0  million at December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively. These earnings could
become subject to additional tax if they were remitted as dividends to the  U.S.
parent.  It is  not practicable  to estimate the  amount of  additional tax that
might be payable on the foreign earnings.
 
NOTE 11 -- PENSION PLANS AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
 
    PENSION PLANS.  Substantially all  employees are covered by defined  benefit
plans  maintained by Aviall, or Ryder for  the period prior to the Distribution.
Pension  expense  includes  an  allocation  of  amounts  related  to  the  plans
maintained  by Aviall  as well  as, for 1993,  amounts allocated  and charged to
Aviall by  Ryder for  participants in  the Ryder  System, Inc.  Retirement  Plan
("Ryder Salaried Plan").
 
    Aviall's   primary  plan  ("Aviall  Pension  Plan")  provides  benefits  for
domestic, non-union employees for services subsequent to the Distribution. These
employees of Aviall were  given credit under the  Aviall Pension Plan for  prior
service  in the Ryder Salaried Plan. Ryder  retained the pension fund assets and
accumulated benefit obligation  related to  participants in  the Ryder  Salaried
Plan for services rendered through the Distribution Date.
 
    In addition to the Aviall Pension Plan, Aviall maintains two defined benefit
pension  plans  directly  attributable to  the  Division: a  U.S.  plan covering
certain union employees and  a plan for  employees of Aviall  Ltd in the  United
Kingdom.  The benefits for these  plans are based upon  years of service for the
domestic plan and a final-pay benefit  formula for the United Kingdom plan.  The
funding policy for these plans is to contribute such amounts as are necessary on
an  actuarial basis  to provide  the plans  with sufficient  assets to  meet the
benefits payable to plan participants. The plans' assets are primarily  invested
in equities and interest-bearing accounts.
 
    The  following tables reflect the components  of net pension expense and the
funded status  for the  two  plans directly  attributable  to the  Division  (in

    Separate calculations of the components of net pension expense for employees
of  the Division covered by the Aviall Pension Plan and the Ryder Salaried Plan,
as well as the  Division's funded status within  such plans, are not  available.
Pension  expense  included in  the  Combined Statements  of  Operations includes
amounts allocated to the Division by both Aviall and Ryder, based on  headcount,
of  approximately $0.3 million, $0.7 million and  $0.7 million in 1993, 1994 and
1995, respectively.
 
    In accordance  with  the provisions  of  Statement of  Financial  Accounting
Standards  No.  87,  "Employers'  Accounting  for  Pensions,"  the  Division has
recorded  an  additional  minimum  liability  at  December  31,  1994  and  1995
representing  the excess  of the  accumulated benefit  obligation over  the fair
value of plan assets and accrued pension liability. The additional liability has
been offset by intangible assets to the extent of previously unrecognized  prior
service  cost. Amounts in  excess of previously  unrecognized prior service cost
were recorded as a $3.2 million reduction in Aviall investment.
 
    The following table sets  forth the year end  actuarial assumptions used  in
the accounting for the two plans directly attributable to the Division:

    POSTRETIREMENT  BENEFITS.    Aviall maintains  plans  which  provide retired
employees with certain  health care and  life insurance benefits.  Substantially
all  domestic employees are eligible for  these benefits. Generally, these plans
require employee contributions, limit company contributions to $95 per month for
nonunion employees and provide for a $10,000 lifetime maximum benefit for  union
employees.  Effective  January 1,  1993, Aviall  adopted Statement  of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits
Other Than Pensions." As a result, approximately $1.9 million, net of taxes, was
allocated to the Division and recorded as  the cumulative effect of a change  in
accounting  principle to establish a liability for the present value of expected
future benefits attributed to  employees' service rendered  prior to January  1,
1993.   Periodic  postretirement  benefit  expense   included  in  the  Combined
Statements of Operations includes amounts  allocated to the Division by  Aviall,
based on headcount, of approximately $0.3 million, $0.4 million and $0.3 million
in 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively. Separate calculations of the components of
net  periodic postretirement  benefit expense  and the  unfunded status  for the
Division are not available.
 
NOTE 12 -- ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
    The Division uses certain chemicals classified by various state and  federal
agencies  as  hazardous  substances. Aviall  is  involved in  various  stages of
investigation and  cleanup  to comply  with  state and  federal  regulations  at
facilities  operated  by  the  Division. These  financial  statements  have been
prepared on the basis of the  Division operating as a stand-alone going  concern
entity  and accordingly do  not reflect environmental exit  costs expected to be
incurred by  Aviall. Such  costs will  be accrued  by the  Division in  1996  to
reflect Aviall's decision to sell the Division.
 
    Aviall  has been  named a  potentially responsible  party ("PRP")  under the
Comprehensive Environmental  Response, Compensation  and Liability  Act and  the
Superfund  Amendments and Reauthorization Act at four third-party disposal sites
to which wastes were allegedly sent by the previous owner of assets used by  the
Division.  Aviall did  not use the  identified disposal  sites. Accordingly, the
previous owner has retained, and has been discharging, all liability  associated
with the cleanup of these sites pursuant to the sales agreement. Although Aviall
could  be  potentially liable  in the  event of  nonperformance by  the previous
owner, it does not anticipate nonperformance. Based on this information, neither
Aviall nor the Division has accrued any costs associated with third party sites.
 
    At December 31, 1994 and 1995, accrued environmental liabilities related  to
the  ongoing  operations  of the  Division  amounted  to $1.1  million  and $0.8
million, respectively. Total environmental expense included in earnings amounted
to $0.9  million  and  $0.7 million  in  1993  and 1994,  respectively  and  was
immaterial  in 1995.  The Division's  probable environmental  loss estimates are
based on information obtained from independent environmental engineers and  from
Division experts regarding the nature and extent of environmental contamination,
remediation  alternatives  available,  and  the  cleanup  criteria  required  by
relevant governmental  agencies. The  estimated costs  include anticipated  site
testing,  consulting,  remediation,  disposal,  post-remediation  monitoring and
legal fees  as  appropriate,  based  on  available  information.  These  amounts
represent  the undiscounted costs to fully  resolve the environmental matters in
accordance with prevailing federal, state and local requirements.

               NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
NOTE 12 -- ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS (CONTINUED)
    Based on information presently available and Division programs to detect and
minimize contamination, management  believes the ultimate  disposition of  these
matters,  although potentially material to the  results of operations in any one
year, will not have a material  affect on the Division's financial condition  or
cash flows.
 
NOTE 13 -- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
    The  Division leases certain facilities and equipment under agreements which
are classified as operating leases. Rental  expense under these leases was  $0.9
million,  $1.1 million  and $0.9 million  in 1993, 1994  and 1995, respectively.
Future minimum payments  under non-cancelable operating  leases with initial  or
remaining  terms of  one year  or more  at the  end of  1995 are  as follows (in
thousands):

                NOTES TO UNAUDITED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
    The  accompanying  unaudited  financial  statements  have  been  prepared in
accordance with generally accepted  accounting principles for interim  financial
information  and with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial
statements do  not include  all of  the information  and footnotes  required  by
generally  accepted accounting principles for  complete financial statements and
should be  read  in  conjunction  with Aviall,  Inc.  Engine  Services  Division
combined  financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31,
1995. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments (consisting only of  normal
recurring  adjustments) considered necessary  for a fair  presentation have been
included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 1996  are
not  necessarily indicative  of the  results that may  be expected  for the year
ended December 31, 1996.
 
NOTE 2 -- RESTRUCTURING COSTS
    Based on a  decision by the  Aviall, Inc. ("Aviall")  Board of Directors  on
January 24, 1996, Aviall signed a definitive agreement on April 19, 1996 to sell
the  engine services division  ("Division") to Greenwich  Air Services, Inc. and
expects to  complete the  sale  in 1996.  Accordingly,  income taxes  have  been
calculated  on a discrete period basis. In accordance with Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 30, Aviall recorded in its consolidated financial statements a
"discontinued operations" charge of  $212.5 million as of  December 31, 1995  to
reflect  its estimate of  the loss it  will incur upon  sale of the discontinued
operations, primarily related to the Division. These costs were not recorded  in
the   separate  Division  1995  financial  statements  since  this  discontinued
operations treatment is  not appropriate  at the  Division level.  Restructuring
costs  approximating $55 million, incurred by  Aviall on behalf of the Division,
will be reflected in the Division's  financial statements in 1996. The  combined
financial  statements for  the three months  ended March 31,  1996 include $39.6
million of such expenses.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors
  and Shareholder of Aviall Limited
 
    In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related
consolidated statements of operations, of shareholder's equity and of cash flows
present  fairly,  in all  material respects,  the  financial position  of Aviall
Limited and its subsidiaries (the "Company") at November 30, 1994 and 1995,  and
the  results of their operations and their  cash flows for the years then ended,
in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements are  the responsibility  of the  Company's management;  our
responsibility  is to express an opinion  on these financial statements based on
our audits.  We conducted  our audits  of these  statements in  accordance  with
generally  accepted  auditing standards  in the  United  Kingdom and  the United
States which require  that we plan  and perform the  audit to obtain  reasonable
assurance   about  whether  the  financial   statements  are  free  of  material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence  supporting
the   amounts  and  disclosures  in  the  financial  statements,  assessing  the
accounting principles used  and significant  estimates made  by management,  and
evaluating  the overall  financial statement  presentation. We  believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

                                 AVIALL LIMITED
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
NOTE 1 -- BACKGROUND
    Aviall Limited (the "Company") is engaged in the maintenance and overhaul of
turbine  engines used primarily in commercial aviation and provides its services
on a worldwide basis. The engine repair operation located in Prestwick, Scotland
is a wholly owned United Kingdom foreign subsidiary of Aviall, Inc. ("Aviall").
 
    Based on a decision by  the Aviall Board of  Directors on January 24,  1996,
Aviall  signed a letter of intent with Greenwich Air Services, Inc. ("GASI") for
the sale of its commercial engine services business which includes the  Company.
A  definitive agreement was signed on April 19, 1996. The sale is expected to be
completed in 1996. In  accordance with Accounting  Principles Board Opinion  No.
30,  Aviall recorded  in its  consolidated financial  statements a "discontinued
operations" charge of  $212.5 million  as of December  31, 1995  to reflect  its
estimate  of the loss it will incur upon the sale of the discontinued commercial
engine services operations. The Company has  not recorded in its 1995  financial
statements  any amounts included in the charge related to the Company since this
discontinued operations treatment is not appropriate at this level. Direct costs
approximating $3.7 million will be incurred  by Aviall on behalf of the  Company
and,  accordingly, will  be reflected in  the Company's  financial statements in
1996. Upon completion  of the  sale, GASI will  allocate its  purchase price  in
accordance  with  Accounting  Principles  Board Opinion  No.  16  and  thus will
establish different bases of certain  assets and liabilities than are  reflected
in these financial statements.
 
NOTE 2 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
    BASIS  OF PRESENTATION.   The consolidated financial  statements include the
accounts of  the  Company and  its  subsidiaries. All  significant  intercompany
transactions  and accounts have been  eliminated in consolidation. The Company's
fiscal year  ends on  November  30. The  accompanying financial  statements  are
prepared  in  U.S. dollars.  The fair  value of  current assets  and liabilities
approximates carrying value.
 
    The process of preparing financial  statements in conformity with  generally
accepted  accounting principles  requires the  use of  estimates and assumptions
regarding certain  types of  assets, liabilities,  revenues and  expenses.  Such
estimates  primarily relate to unsettled transactions  and events as of the date
of the financial  statements. Accordingly, upon  settlement, actual results  may
differ from estimated amounts.
 
    REVENUE  RECOGNITION.  Income from engine maintenance services is recognized
at the time of performance test acceptance of engines (the "completed  contract"
method).    Revenue    from   long-term    fixed-price   contracts,    such   as
"power-by-the-hour"  or   "flat-rate"  contracts,   is  recognized   under   the
"percentage-of-completion" method.
 
    INVENTORIES.  Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is
determined  on the basis  of average cost  of materials and  supplies and actual
cost for labor and overhead included  in work-in-process. Provision is made  for
estimated  excess  and obsolete  inventories. All  inventory available  for sale
during the course  of the  normal business cycle  has been  included in  current
assets.
 
    PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT.  Property, plant and equipment are carried at
cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using
the  straight-line method. Lives  assigned to asset categories  are 40 years for
buildings and  improvements and  4  to 15  years  for machinery,  equipment  and
tooling.
 
    INTANGIBLE  ASSETS.  Goodwill is reported net of accumulated amortization of
$5.2 million and $5.9  million as of November  30, 1994 and 1995,  respectively.
Goodwill  represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the
net assets acquired and is amortized  using the straight-line method over  forty
years.
 
    The Company has reviewed the net realizable value of its goodwill through an
assessment  of the estimated  future cash flows  related to such  assets and has
concluded that there is no impairment of the net carrying value.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
NOTE 2 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
    ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS.  A liability for environmental assessments and  cleanup
is  accrued  when it  is probable  a loss  has been  incurred and  is estimable.
Generally, the timing of these accruals coincides with the identification of  an
environmental  obligation  through  the Company's  internal  procedures  or upon
notification from regulatory agencies. The Company is not aware of any  exposure
to  environmental costs arising from its  continuing operations and thus has not
accrued any such liability.
 
    FOREIGN EXCHANGE AND FORWARD EXCHANGE  CONTRACTS.  The Company utilizes  the
U.S.  dollar  as  its  functional currency.  Translation  gains  and  losses are
included in earnings. Aviall enters into forward exchange contracts on behalf of
the Company to hedge certain of its foreign currency commitments including  loan
commitments  with the European Investment Bank  ("EIB") and certain labor costs.
Gains and losses on forward contracts are recognized by the Company concurrently
with the related transaction gains and losses. Total translation and transaction
gains or (losses) included in earnings  were $(0.5) million and $1.2 million  in
1994 and 1995, respectively.
 
    INCOME  TAXES.   The Company  accounts for  income taxes  in accordance with
Statement of  Financial Accounting  Standards No.  109, "Accounting  for  Income
Taxes."
 
    IMPAIRMENT  OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS.   In March  1995, the Financial Accounting
Standards  Board  ("FASB")  issued  Statement  No.  121,  "Accounting  for   the
Impairment  of Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived Assets to  be Disposed of"
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. FASB Statement No.
121 requires that long-lived assets  be reviewed for impairment whenever  events
or  changes in circumstances indicate that the  carrying amount of the asset may
not be recoverable. The  adoption of this  statement is not  expected to have  a
material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
 
NOTE 3 -- TRANSACTIONS WITH AVIALL
 
    GENERAL  AND  ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES.    Aviall provided  certain corporate
general and administrative services to  the Company, including legal,  treasury,
human  resources and finance, among others. Costs related to these services were
allocated to the Company  on a basis that  approximated either the  proportional
share of the Company's usage of the actual services provided or a representative
share of certain corporate fixed expenses. Management believes these allocations
are reasonable.
 
    Total  allocated expenses included in  "Selling and Administrative Expenses"
in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations were $2.9 million  and
$3.7 million in 1994 and 1995, respectively.
 
    INTERCOMPANY  FINANCING AND INTEREST EXPENSE.   "Due to Aviall" reflected in
the Consolidated Balance Sheets represents Aviall's net advances to the  Company
resulting  from cash  and non-cash  transfers and  intercompany allocations. The
intercompany advances by  Aviall to the  Company are evidenced  by a  promissory
note  dated December 7, 1993 maturing on  December 31, 2000. The annual interest
rate is agreed upon between the parties and was equal to the quarterly  floating
London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR") plus 3%. At November 30, 1994 and 1995,
the  interest rate was 8.6% and  8.9%, respectively. Total intercompany interest
charged by Aviall  to the Company  in 1994 and  1995 was $3.4  million and  $4.4
million,  respectively. The note may be prepaid without penalty at the option of
the Company. If the transaction in Note 1 is completed, the note will be  repaid
by GASI immediately after close.
 
    CORPORATE INSURANCE PROGRAMS.  The Company participated in Aviall's combined
risk management programs for property and casualty insurance, including aviation
products  liability. The  Company was charged  $1.4 million and  $1.6 million in
1994 and  1995, respectively,  which represented  an allocation  of third  party
premiums.

NOTE 3 -- TRANSACTIONS WITH AVIALL (CONTINUED)
    GUARANTEES  OF DEBT BY AVIALL.  The Company's debt with the EIB is supported
by letters of  credit issued under  Aviall's credit facility.  In addition,  the
Company's  L4.0  million  unsecured  bank overdraft  facility  is  guaranteed by
Aviall.
 
    SECURITY FOR AVIALL  DEBT.   On March 25,  1996, Aviall  amended its  credit
facilities  to provide for a maturity date of April 30, 1997. The amended credit
facilities contain various covenants, including financial covenants, limitations
on debt and limitations on capital expenditures. In the absence of obtaining the
amended agreement, Aviall would have been in default of the financial  covenants
of  its  previously  outstanding  credit  facilities.  Aviall's  amended  credit
facilities are secured in part by a pledge of 65% of the stock of the Company.
 
NOTE 4 -- ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ALLOWANCES
    The  Company  provides  services  to  a  wide  variety  of  aviation-related
businesses,  including  several  commercial airlines.  Management  believes that
sufficient allowances for doubtful  accounts have been  provided as of  November
30,  1994 and 1995. In addition, a substantial portion of the Company's accounts
receivable balance is covered by credit insurance. The following is a summary of
the accounts receivable allowances (in thousands):

    If  the transaction described in  Note 1 is completed,  it is likely the EIB

NOTE 10 -- PENSION PLANS
    The Company maintains a defined benefit pension plan. The benefits for  this
plan are based upon a final-pay benefit formula. The funding policy for the plan
is  to contribute such amounts as are necessary on an actuarial basis to provide
the  plan  with  sufficient  assets  to  meet  the  benefits  payable  to   plan
participants.   The  plan's  assets  are  primarily  invested  in  equities  and
interest-bearing accounts.

ITEM 15.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
 
    Article Twelfth of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation  of
Greenwich   Air  Services,  Inc.  (the  "Registrant")  eliminates  the  personal
liability of directors and/or officers to the Registrant or its stockholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director; provided that  such
elimination  of  the personal  liability  of a  director  and/or officer  of the
Registrant does not apply to (i) any breach of such person's duty of loyalty  to
the  Registrant or its stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or
which involve  intentional  misconduct or  a  knowing violation  of  law,  (iii)
actions  prohibited under  Section 174 of  the Delaware  General Corporation Law
(i.e., liabilities imposed upon directors who vote for or assent to the unlawful
payment of  dividends, unlawful  repurchases or  redemption of  stock,  unlawful
distribution  of assets of the Registrant  to the stockholders without the prior
payment or  discharge of  the  Registrant's debts  or obligations,  or  unlawful
making  or  guaranteeing of  loans to  directors and/or  officers), or  (iv) any
transaction from which  the director  derived an improper  personal benefit.  In
addition,  Article Thirteenth of the  Registrant's Amended and Restated Articles
of Incorporation  provides that  the Registrant  shall indemnify  its  corporate
personnel,  directors  and  officers  to the  fullest  extent  permitted  by the
Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended from time to time.
 
    The Registrant has entered into separate but identical indemnity  agreements
(the  "Indemnity Agreements")  with each director  and executive  officer of the
Registrant (the  "Indemnities").  The  Indemnity  Agreements  provide  that  the
Registrant  will indemnify each  Indemnitee against any  amounts that he becomes
legally obligated to pay in connection with any claim against him based upon any
act, omission, neglect  or breach of  duty that  he may commit,  omit or  suffer
while  acting in his  capacity as a  director and/or officer  of the Registrant;
provided, that such claim:  (i) is not based  upon the Indemnitee's gaining  any
personal  profit or advantage to  which he is not  legally entitled; (ii) is not
for an accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by the Indemnitee of
securities of  the  Registrant  within  the meaning  of  Section  16(b)  of  the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or similar provisions of any state
law; and  (iii)  is  not  based  upon  the  Indemnitee's  knowingly  fraudulent,
deliberately  dishonest  or willful  misconduct.  The Indemnity  Agreements also
provide that all costs and expenses  incurred by the Indemnitee in defending  or
investigating such claim shall be paid by the Registrant in advance of the final
disposition  thereof,  unless  the Registrant,  independent  legal  counsel, the
stockholders of the Registrant or  a court of competent jurisdiction  determines
that:  (x) the  Indemnitee did not  act in  good faith and  in a  manner that he
reasonably
 
                                      II-1
<PAGE>
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant; (y) in
the case of  any criminal action  or proceeding, the  Indemnitee had  reasonable
cause  to believe his conduct was  unlawful; or (z) the Indemnitee intentionally
breached his duty  to the Registrant  or its stockholders.  Each Indemnitee  has
undertaken  to repay the Registrant for any  costs or expenses so advanced if it
shall ultimately be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a  final,
nonappealable  adjudication that he is not  entitled to indemnification under an
Indemnity Agreement.
 
ITEM 15.  RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.

ITEM 17.  UNDERTAKINGS.
 
    1.  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
 
        (a)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
 
        (1)  To  include  any prospectus  required  by Section  10(a)(3)  of the
    Securities Act;
 
        (2) To reflect in the prospectus  any facts or events arising after  the
    effective   date  of  the   registration  statement  (or   the  most  recent
    post-effective amendment thereof) which,  individually or in the  aggregate,
    represent  a  fundamental  change  in  the  information  set  forth  in  the
    registration statement; and
 
        (3) To include  any material  information with  respect to  the plan  of
    distribution  not previously disclosed in  the registration statement or any
    material change to such information in the registration statement;
 
        (b)   That, for  the  purpose of  determining  any liability  under  the
Securities  Act, each such post-effective amendment shall  be deemed to be a new
registration statement  relating  to the  securities  offered therein,  and  the
offering  of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof; and
 
        (c)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective  amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
 
    2.    The undersigned  Registrant hereby  undertakes  that, for  purposes of
determining any liability under the Act, each filing of the Registrant's  annual
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(and,  where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
pursuant to  Section 15(d)  of the  Securities  Exchange Act  of 1934)  that  is
incorporated  by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to  the securities offered therein, and  the
offering  of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
 
    3.  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may  be
permitted  to  directors, officers  and  controlling persons  of  the Registrant
pursuant to  the foregoing  provisions, or  otherwise, the  Registrant has  been
advised  that  in the  opinion of  the Securities  and Exchange  Commission such
indemnification is  against  public policy  as  expressed  in the  Act  and  is,
therefore,  unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses  incurred
or  paid by a director,  officer or controlling person  of the Registrant in the
successful defense  of any  action,  suit or  proceeding)  is asserted  by  such
director,  officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled  by controlling  precedent, submit  to a  court of  appropriate
jurisdiction  the  question of  whether such  indemnification  by it  is against
public policy  as  expressed in  the  Act and  will  be governed  by  the  final
adjudication of such issue.
 
    4.  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:
 
        (1)  For purposes of determining any  liability under the Securities Act
    of 1933, the information omitted from  the form of prospectus filed as  part
    of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a
    form  of prospectus  filed by the  registrant pursuant to  Rule 424(b)(1) or
    (4), or 497(h) under the Securities Act  shall be deemed to be part of  this
    registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
        (2)  For the purpose  of determining any  liability under the Securities
    Act  of  1933,  each  post-effective  amendment  that  contains  a  form  of
    prospectus  shall be deemed  to be a new  registration statement relating to
    the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at  that
    time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

On behalf of the Several
Underwriters named in
Schedule I attached hereto.

Gentlemen:

          Greenwich Air Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
and Eugene P. Conese, the selling stockholder (the "Selling Stockholder"),
propose to sell to you and the other underwriters named in Schedule I to this
Agreement (the "Underwriters"), for whom you are acting as Representatives, an
aggregate of 4,000,000 shares (the "Firm Shares") of the Company's Class B
common stock, $0.01 par value (the "Common Stock"), of which 3,400,000 shares
are to be issued and sold by the Company and 600,000 shares are to be sold by
the Selling Stockholder.  In addition, the Company proposes to grant to the
Underwriters an option to purchase up to an additional aggregate of 600,000
shares (the "Option Shares") of Common Stock from the Company for the purpose of
covering over-allotments in connection with the sale of the Firm Shares.  The
Firm Shares and the Option Shares are together called the "Shares."

          The Shares are being issued and sold in connection with (i) the
acquisition by the Company through a wholly-owned subsidiary (the "Aviall
Acquisition") of the gas turbine engine services and engine components repair
business (the "Aviall Business") of Aviall, Inc. and Aviall Services, Inc.
("Aviall")

<PAGE>

pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement dated April 19, 1996 between GASI
Engine Services Corporation, the Company and Aviall (the "Purchase Agreement");
(ii) the refinancing by the Company of substantially all of its indebtedness
under its existing credit facility with The Bank of New York Commercial
Corporation (the "Refinancing") through a $175 million senior secured revolving
credit facility dated ___________, 1996 between the Company and The Bank of New
York Commercial Corporation, individually and as agent for the other lenders
(the "New Credit Facility") and (iii) the offering (the "Note Offering")
pursuant to an underwriting agreement dated ____, 1996 among the Company, the
Subsidiary Guarantors named therein and the Underwriters named therein (the
"Note Underwriting Agreement") of $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of __%
Senior Notes of the Company due 2006 (the "Notes") to be issued under an
indenture (the "Indenture") to be dated ____________ 1996 among the Company, the
Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein) and American Stock Transfer & Trust
Company, as Trustee.  The Aviall Acquisition, the Refinancing and the Note
Offering are referred to herein as the "Transactions" and the Purchase
Agreement, the New Credit Facility, the Note Underwriting Agreement and the
Indenture are referred to herein as the "Transaction Documents."

          It is understood and agreed that prior to or concurrently with the
Firm Shares Closing Date (as defined in Section 2 hereof) the Company will
consummate the Transactions.  For the purposes of this Agreement, at the Closing
Date the term the "Company" shall mean the Company as it would exist immediately
following the Aviall Acquisition.

          1.   SALE AND PURCHASE OF THE SHARES.  On the basis of the
representations, warranties and agreements contained in, and subject to the
terms and conditions of, this Agreement:

          (a)  The Company and the Selling Stockholder agree, severally and not
     jointly, to sell to each of the Underwriters, and each of the Underwriters
     agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company and the
     Selling Stockholder, at $     per share (the "Initial Price"), the number
     of Firm Shares (adjusted by the Representatives to eliminate fractions)
     which bears the same proportion to the total number of Firm Shares to be
     sold by the Company or by the Selling Stockholder, as the case may be, as
     the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter
     in Schedule I to this Agreement bears to the total number of Firm Shares to
     be sold by the Company and the Selling Stockholder.

          (b)  The Company grants to the several Underwriters an option to
     purchase, severally and not jointly, all or any part of the Option Shares
     at the Initial Price; such option to be exercisable upon the terms and
     conditions set forth

                                      - 2 -

<PAGE>

     herein.  The number of Option Shares to be purchased by each Underwriter
     shall be the same percentage (adjusted by the Representatives to eliminate
     fractions) of the total number of Option Shares to be purchased by the
     Underwriters as such Underwriter is purchasing of the Firm Shares.  Such
     option may be exercised only to cover over-allotments in the sales of the
     Firm Shares by the Underwriters and may be exercised in whole or in part at
     any time on or before 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the business day
     before the Firm Shares Closing Date (as defined below), and only once
     thereafter within 30 days after the date of this Agreement, in each case
     upon written or telegraphic notice, or verbal or telephonic notice
     confirmed by written or telegraphic notice, by the Representatives to the
     Company no later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the business day
     before the Firm Shares Closing Date or at least two business days before
     the Option Shares Closing Date (as defined below), as the case may be,
     setting forth the number of Option Shares to be purchased and the time and
     date (if other than the Firm Shares Closing Date) of such purchase.

          2.   DELIVERY AND PAYMENT.  Delivery by the Company and the Selling
Stockholder of the Firm Shares to the Representatives for the respective
accounts of the Underwriters, and payment of the purchase price by certified or
official bank check or checks payable in New York Clearing House (next day)
funds to the Company and the Selling Stockholder, shall take place at the
offices of Oppenheimer & Co., Inc., at Oppenheimer Tower, World Financial
Center, New York, New York 10281, at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the
third business day following the date of this Agreement, provided, however, that
if the Firm Shares sold hereunder are priced after 4:30 p.m., New York time, on
any business day, payment and delivery in respect of the Firm Shares shall take
place on the fourth business day following the date of this Agreement; if it is
determined that settlement within the foregoing time frame is not feasible, then
payment and delivery in respect of the Firm Shares shall occur at such time on
such other date, not later than 10 business days after the date of this
Agreement, as shall be agreed upon by the Company and the Representatives (such
time and date of delivery and payment are called the "Firm Shares Closing
Date").

          In the event the option with respect to the Option Shares is
exercised, delivery by the Company of the Option Shares to the Representatives
for the respective accounts of the Underwriters and payment of the purchase
price by certified or official bank check or checks payable in New York Clearing
House (next day) funds to the Company shall take place at the offices of
Oppenheimer & Co., Inc. specified above at the time and on the date (which may
be the same date as, but in no event shall be earlier than, the Firm Shares
Closing Date) specified in the notice referred to in Section 1(b) (such time and
date of

                                      - 3 -

<PAGE>

delivery and payment are called the "Option Shares Closing Date").  The Firm
Shares Closing Date and the Option Shares Closing Date are called, individually,
a "Closing Date" and, together, the "Closing Dates."  At the option of the
Company, payment of the purchase price for any Shares being issued and sold by
the Company hereunder on any Closing Date shall be by wire transfer of same day
(Federal) funds; provided, however, that such option may be exercised only by
written notice to the Representatives no later than two business days prior to
such Closing Date and the Company shall reimburse the Representatives for their
overnight funding costs at or prior to such Closing Date.

          Certificates evidencing the Shares shall be registered in such names
and shall be in such denominations as the Representatives shall request at least
two full business days before the Firm Shares Closing Date or, in the case of
Option Shares, on the day of notice of exercise of the option as described in
Section l(b) and shall be made available to the Representatives for checking and
packaging, at such place as is designated by the Representatives, at least one
full business day before the Firm Shares Closing Date (or the Option Shares
Closing Date in the case of the Option Shares).

          3.   REGISTRATION STATEMENT AND PROSPECTUS; PUBLIC OFFERING.  The
Company has prepared in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and the published rules and
regulations thereunder (the "Rules") adopted by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-
4162), including a preliminary prospectus relating to the Shares, and has filed
with the Commission the Registration Statement and such amendments thereto as
may have been required to the date of this Agreement.  Copies of such
Registration Statement (including all amendments thereto) and of the related
preliminary prospectus have heretofore been delivered by the Company to you.
The term "Registration Statement" means the Registration Statement as amended at
the time and on the date it becomes effective (the "Effective Date"), including
all exhibits and information, if any, deemed to be part of the Registration
Statement pursuant to Rule 424(a) and Rule 430A of the Rules.  The term
"preliminary prospectus" means any preliminary prospectus (as described in Rule
430 of the Rules) included at any time as a part of the Registration Statement.
The term "Prospectus" means the prospectus in the form first used to confirm
sales of the Shares (whether such prospectus was included in the Registration
Statement at the time of effectiveness or was subsequently filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules).

          The Company and the Selling Stockholder understand that the
Underwriters propose to make a public offering of the Shares,

                                      - 4 -

<PAGE>

as set forth in and pursuant to the Prospectus, as soon after the Effective Date
and the date of this Agreement as the Representatives deem advisable.  The
Company and the Selling Stockholder hereby confirm that the Underwriters and
dealers have been authorized to distribute or cause to be distributed each
preliminary prospectus (except for the preliminary prospectus included in the
initial filing of the Registration Statement on April 26, 1996) and are
authorized to distribute the Prospectus (as from time to time amended or
supplemented if the Company furnishes amendments or supplements thereto to the
Underwriters).

          4.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY AND THE SELLING
STOCKHOLDER. (A) The Company hereby represents and warrants to each Underwriter
as follows:

          (a)  On the Effective Date, the Registration Statement complied, and,
     on the date of the Prospectus, on the date any post-effective amendment to
     the Registration Statement shall become effective, on the date any
     supplement or amendment to the Prospectus is filed with the Commission and
     on each Closing Date, the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (and
     any amendment thereof or supplement thereto) will comply, in all material
     respects, with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the
     Rules and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
     Act") and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder; the
     Registration Statement did not, as of the Effective Date, contain any
     untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
     required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
     therein not misleading; and on the other dates referred to above neither
     the Registration Statement nor any amendment thereof or supplement thereto
     will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or will omit to state
     any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to
     make the statements therein not misleading; and on the other dates referred
     to above neither the Prospectus nor any amendment thereof or supplement
     thereto will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or will omit
     to state any material fact required to be stated therein, in the light of
     the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.  When any
     related preliminary prospectus was first filed with the Commission (whether
     filed as part of the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto or
     pursuant to Rule 424(a) of the Rules) and when any amendment thereof or
     supplement thereto was first filed with the Commission, such preliminary
     prospectus as amended or supplemented as of its date complied in all
     material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and
     the Rules and did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
     omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
     in order to make

                                      - 5 -

<PAGE>

     the statements therein not misleading.  The Company and the Selling
     Stockholder make no representation or warranty as to the paragraph with
     respect to stabilization on the inside front cover page of the Prospectus
     and the statements contained under the caption "Underwriting" in the
     Prospectus.  The Company and the Selling Stockholder acknowledge that such
     statements constitute the only information furnished in writing by the
     Representatives on behalf of the several Underwriters specifically for
     inclusion in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the
     Prospectus.

          (b)  The financial statements included in the Registration Statement
     and the Prospectus present fairly the financial position of the Company and
     its consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates shown and their results of
     operations and cash flows for the periods and as of the dates shown, and
     such consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity
     with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States applied
     on a consistent basis, except as otherwise stated therein and except for
     the unaudited financial statements to the extent such unaudited financial
     statements omit certain footnote disclosures and may be subject to year-end
     audit adjustment which would not, individually or in the aggregate, be
     material.  The schedules included in the Registration Statement present
     fairly in all material respects the information required to be stated
     therein; and the historical financial information and statistical data set
     forth in the Prospectus under the captions "Summary Historical and Pro
     Forma Financial Data," "Capitalization," "Unaudited Pro Forma Financial
     Data," and "Selected Historical Financial Data" are fairly stated in all
     material respects in relation to the financial statements from which they
     have been derived.  The pro forma data included in the Registration
     Statement and the Prospectus present fairly the information shown therein,
     comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Act and the
     Rules and Regulations with respect to pro forma financial statements, have
     been properly compiled on the pro forma basis described therein and the
     assumptions used in the preparation thereof are reasonable and the
     adjustments used therein are appropriate to give effect to the transactions
     or circumstances referred to therein.

          (c)  Each of Deloitte & Touche LLP, Price Waterhouse LLP and KMPG Peat
     Marwick LLP, whose reports are filed with the Commission as a part of the
     Registration Statement, are and, during the periods covered by their
     reports, were independent public accountants as required by the Securities
     Act and the Rules.

                                      - 6 -

          (d)  The Company has been duly organized and is validly existing as a
     corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.  Each
     subsidiary of the Company has been duly incorporated or formed and is an
     existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of
     its incorporation or organization.  The Company and its subsidiaries are
     duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation in each
     jurisdiction in which the character or location of its assets or properties
     (owned, leased or licensed) or the nature of its business makes such
     qualification necessary except for such jurisdictions where the failure to
     so qualify would not have a material adverse effect on the assets or
     properties, business, results of operations or financial condition of the
     Company or its subsidiaries, taken as a consolidated whole.  The Company
     has no subsidiaries other than the Subsidiary Guarantors party to the
     Indenture and Greenwich Caledonian, Limited (formerly known as Aviall
     Limited and hereinafter "Aviall U.K."), and does not control, directly or
     indirectly, any corporation, partnership, joint venture, association or
     other business organization.  The Company and its subsidiaries have all
     requisite power and authority, and all necessary authorizations, approvals,
     consents, orders, licenses, certificates and permits of and from all
     governmental or regulatory bodies or any other person or entity, to own,
     lease and license its assets and properties and conduct its businesses as
     now being conducted and as described in the Registration Statement and the
     Prospectus, except for such authorizations, approvals, consents, orders,
     licenses, certificates or permits which, if not obtained, would not have a
     material adverse effect on the Company or its subsidiaries, taken as a
     consolidated whole; no such authorization, approval, consent, order,
     license, certificate or permit contains a materially burdensome restriction
     other than as disclosed in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus;
     and the Company has all such corporate power and authority, and such
     authorizations, approvals, consents, orders, licenses, certificates and
     permits to enter into, deliver and perform this Agreement and to issue and
     sell the Shares (except as may be required under the Securities Act and
     state and foreign Blue Sky laws).

          (e)  As of March 31, 1996, the Company had an authorized and
     outstanding capital stock as set forth under the caption "Capitalization"
     in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.  All of the outstanding
     shares of Common Stock have been duly and validly issued and are fully paid
     and nonassessable and none of them was issued in violation of any
     preemptive or other similar right.  The Shares, when issued (in the case of
     Shares to be sold by the Company) and sold pursuant to this Agreement, will
     be duly and validly


                                      - 7 -

<PAGE>

     issued, fully paid and nonassessable and none of them will be issued in
     violation of any preemptive or other similar right.  Except as disclosed in
     the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, there is no outstanding
     option, warrant or other right calling for the issuance of, and no
     commitment, plan or arrangement to issue, any share of stock of the Company
     or any security convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, such
     stock.  The Common Stock and the Shares conform in all material respects to
     all statements in relation thereto contained in the Registration Statement
     and the Prospectus.

          (f)  This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered
     by the Company and constitutes and will constitute the legal, valid and
     binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in
     accordance with its terms, except (A) as the enforceability thereof may be
     limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws
     affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general
     equitable principles and (B) to the extent that rights to indemnity or
     contribution under this Agreement may be limited by Federal and state
     securities laws or the public policy underlying such laws.

          (g)  The Company and each subsidiary have all necessary power and
     authority to enter into and consummate the Transactions and execute,
     deliver and perform their obligations under the Transaction Documents to
     which they are a party; each Transaction Document has been or, by the
     Closing Date, will be duly executed and delivered by the Company and each
     of its subsidiaries party thereto substantially in the form previously
     delivered to you and, when executed and delivered by the Company or such
     subsidiary, will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the
     Company and each such subsidiary enforceable against the Company or such
     subsidiary, as the case may be, in accordance with their respective terms,
     except (A) as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy,
     insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of
     creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles and (B) to
     the extent that rights to indemnity or contribution under the Note
     Underwriting Agreement may be limited by Federal and state securities laws
     or the public policy underlying such laws.

          (h)  Each of the Company and its subsidiaries is not in violation of
     any term or provision of its charter or by-laws.

          (i)  Except to the extent set forth in the Registration Statement and
     the Prospectus, the Company has not received any written notice of, nor
     does it have any actual knowledge

                                      - 8 -

<PAGE>

     of, any failure by it or any of its subsidiaries to be in substantial
     compliance with all existing statutes and regulations applicable to it or
     such subsidiaries, which failure could materially and adversely affect the
     financial condition or business, properties, net worth or results of
     operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a consolidated
     whole.

          (j)  Neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
     and the Transaction Documents by the Company and its subsidiaries party
     thereto nor the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby
     or thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance and sale by the
     Company of the Shares) will give rise to a right to terminate or accelerate
     the due date of any payment due under, or conflict with or result in the
     breach of any term or provision of, or constitute a default (or an event
     which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a default)
     under, or require any consent or waiver under, or result in the execution
     or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any properties or
     assets of the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of, any
     indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other material agreement or
     instrument to which the Company or of its subsidiaries is a party or by
     which it or any of its properties or businesses is bound, any term or
     provision of its charter or by-laws or any franchise, license, permit,
     judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or regulation, in any such case
     where termination, acceleration, conflict, breach, default, event of
     default, lien, charge, encumbrance, whether or not asserted or imposed,
     would have a material adverse effect on the assets or properties, business,
     results of operations, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of
     the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a consolidated whole.

          (k)  Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement and the
     Prospectus, the Company and its subsidiaries have good and marketable title
     to all real properties and all other material properties and assets owned
     by them, in each case free from liens, encumbrances and defects that could
     materially affect the value thereof or materially interfere with the use

     disclosed in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, the Company and
     its subsidiaries hold any leased real or personal property under valid and
     enforceable leases with no exceptions that are material or could materially
     interfere with the use made or presently contemplated to be made thereof by

     Prospectus, there are no pending actions, suits or proceedings

     the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective properties
     that, if determined adversely to the Company or any of its subsidiaries,
     could individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on
     the financial condition or business, properties, net worth or results of
     operations of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a consolidated
     whole, or would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Company
     or any of its subsidiaries to perform their respective obligations under
     this Agreement, or which are otherwise material in the context of the sale
     of the Shares; and, to the Company's knowledge, no such actions, suits or
     proceedings are threatened.

          (m)  Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement and the
     Prospectus, the Company is not involved in any labor dispute nor, to the
     knowledge of the Company, is any such dispute threatened, which dispute
     would have a material adverse effect on the assets or any real property of
     the Company or its subsidiaries ("Property" or "Properties"), business,
     results of operations or financial condition of the Company and its
     subsidiaries, taken as a consolidated whole.

          (n)  Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement and the
     Prospectus, the Company owns or possesses adequate and enforceable rights
     to use all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark
     applications, trade names, service marks, copyrights, copyright
     applications, licenses, know-how and other similar rights and proprietary
     knowledge (collectively, "Intangibles") materially necessary for the
     conduct of its business as described in the Registration Statement and the
     Prospectus.  The Company has not received any notice of, or to its best
     knowledge is not aware of, any infringement of or conflict with asserted
     rights of others with respect to any Intangibles which, singly or in the
     aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding,
     would have a material adverse effect upon the assets or properties,
     business, results of operations, prospects or condition (financial or
     otherwise) of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a consolidated
     whole.

          (o)  There is no document or contract of a character required to be
     described in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or to be filed as an
     exhibit to the Registration Statement which is not described or filed as
     required by the Securities Act and the Rules.  Each agreement listed in the
     Exhibits to the Registration Statement is in full force and effect and is
     valid and enforceable by and against the Company and each of its
     subsidiaries party thereto in accordance with its terms, assuming the due
     authorization,

                                     - 10 -

<PAGE>

     execution and delivery thereof by each of the other parties thereto, except
     where the failure to be in full force and effect or valid and enforceable
     in accordance with its terms does not materially adversely affect the
     assets or properties, business, results of operations, prospects or
     condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and its subsidiaries,
     taken as a consolidated whole.  Neither the Company, nor to the best of the
     Company's knowledge, any other party is in default in the observance or
     performance of any material term or obligation to be performed by it under
     any such agreement, and no event has occurred which with notice or lapse of
     time or both would constitute such a default, in any such case which
     default or event would have a material adverse effect on the assets or
     properties, business, results of operations, prospects or condition
     (financial or otherwise) of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a
     consolidated whole.  No default exists, and no event has occurred which
     with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a default, in the due
     performance and observance of any term, covenant or condition, by the
     Company and its subsidiaries, of any other agreement or instrument to which
     the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it or its
     subsidiaries' properties or business may be bound or affected which default
     or event would have a material adverse effect on the assets or properties,
     business, results of operations, prospects or condition (financial or
     otherwise) of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a consolidated
     whole.

          (p)  Subject to the disclosure set forth in the Registration Statement
     and Prospectus under the heading "Business--Environmental Matters," to the
     best knowledge of the Company, the Company's operations and facilities are
     in material compliance with all federal, state and local environmental laws
     and regulations.  To the best knowledge of the Company, the disclosure set
     forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus under the heading
     "Business--Environmental Matters" is true, complete and correct in all
     material respects.

          (q)  No holders of securities of the Company have rights to the
     registration of such securities under the Registration Statement.  The
     Company has obtained from all executive officers and directors and
     principal stockholders (as set forth in the Prospectus) of the Company, and
     delivered to the Representatives, their enforceable written agreement that
     for a period of at least 90 days from the date of this Agreement they will
     not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, offer for
     sale, sell, solicit on offer to buy, contract to sell, distribute, grant
     any option for the sale of, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly
     or indirectly, any shares of Common

                                     - 11 -

<PAGE>

     Stock (or any securities convertible into, exercised for, or exchangable
     for any shares of Common Stock).

          (r)  No transaction has occurred between or among the Company and any
     of its officers or directors or any affiliate or affiliates of any such
     officer or director that is required to be described in and is not
     described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

          (s)  The Company has not taken, nor will it take, directly or
     indirectly, any action designed to or which might reasonably be expected to
     cause or result in, or which has constituted or which might reasonably be
     expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of
     the Common Stock to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Shares.

          (t)  The Company has filed all Federal, state, local and foreign tax
     returns which are required to be filed through the date hereof, or has
     received extensions thereof, and has paid all taxes shown on such returns
     and all assessments received by it, to the extent that the same are
     material and have become due, except where the failure to so file or so pay
     could not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or
     business, properties, net worth or results of operations of the Company and
     its subsidiaries, taken as a consolidated whole.

          (u)  The Shares have been approved for quotation on the National
     Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation ("Nasdaq") National
     Market, subject to official notice of issuance.

          (v)  The Company has complied with all of the requirements and filed
     the required forms as specified in Florida Statutes Section 517.075.

          (w)  To the best knowledge of the Company the disclosure set forth in
     the Registration Statement and the Prospectus under the heading "Risk
     Factors - Product Liability Risks" is true, complete and correct in all
     material respects; neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has any
     reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance
     coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage
     from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a
     cost that would not materially and adversely affect the condition
     (financial or otherwise), business prospects, net worth or results of
     operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, except as described in or
     contemplated by the Prospectus.

                                     - 12 -

          (x)  The Company will apply the net proceeds from the sale of its
     Shares substantially in accordance with the description set forth in the
     Prospectus and any Preliminary Prospectus under the heading "Use of
     Proceeds."

          (y)  Subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is
     given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, except as described
     therein, (a) there has not been any material adverse change in the assets
     or properties, business, results of operations, prospects or condition
     (financial or otherwise), of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a
     whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of
     business; (b) the Company and its subsidiaries have not sustained any loss
     or interference which would have a material adverse effect on its assets,
     businesses or properties (whether owned or leased) from fire, explosion,
     earthquake, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance,
     or from any labor dispute or any court or legislative or other governmental
     action, order or decree; and (c) and since the date of the latest balance
     sheet included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, except as
     reflected therein, the Company has not (1) issued any securities or
     incurred any liability or obligation, direct or contingent, for borrowed
     money, except for securities issued upon conversion or exercise of
     convertible debentures, warrants or stock options outstanding on the date
     of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and disclosed therein and
     liabilities or obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business, (2)
     entered into any transaction not in the ordinary course of business or (3)
     declared or paid any dividend or made any distribution on any shares of its
     stock or redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired or agreed to redeem,
     purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of its stock.

     (B)  The Selling Stockholder represents and warrants to each Underwriter
that:

          (a)  This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered
     by the Selling Stockholder and constitutes and will constitute the legal,
     valid and binding obligation of the Selling Stockholder, enforceable
     against the Selling Stockholder in accordance with its terms, except (i) as
     the enforceability hereof and thereof may be limited by bankruptcy,
     insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of
     creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles and (ii) to
     the extent that rights to indemnity or contribution under this Agreement
     may be limited by federal and state securities laws or the public policy
     underlying such laws.

                                     - 13 -

          (b)  The Selling Stockholder has good, valid and marketable title to
     the Shares to be sold by him pursuant to this Agreement, free and clear of
     all liens, encumbrances, security interests, restrictions or claims
     whatsoever, with the legal right and full power to enter into this
     Agreement and to sell, transfer and deliver such Shares hereunder and, upon
     the delivery of and payment for such Shares as contemplated hereby, the
     Selling Stockholder will convey to the Underwriters good, valid and
     marketable title to the Shares being sold by such Selling Stockholder, free
     and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests, restrictions or
     claims whatsoever.

          (c)  All information with respect to the Selling Stockholder furnished
     by or on behalf of the Selling Stockholder for use in connection with the
     preparation of the Registration Statement and Prospectus is true and
     correct in all material respects and does not omit to state any material
     fact necessary to make such information not misleading.

          (d)  No transaction has occurred between the Selling Stockholder and
     the Company or any of its subsidiaries that is required to be described in
     and is not described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

          (e)  The Selling Stockholder has not taken and will not take, directly
     or indirectly, any action designed to or which might reasonably be expected
     to cause or result in, or which has constituted or which will reasonably be
     expected to constitute, stabilization or manipulation of the price of the
     Common Stock to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Shares.

          5.   CONDITIONS OF THE UNDERWRITERS' OBLIGATIONS.  The obligations of

     acting solely in their capacities as executive officers of the Company and
     not individually, the signers of such certificate have carefully examined
     the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and this Agreement and that the
     representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement are true

          (f)  At the Execution Time and at the Closing Date, Deloitte & Touche
     LLP shall have furnished to the Representatives a letter or letters, dated
     respectively as of the Execution Time and as of the Closing Date, in form
     and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives, confirming
     that they are independent accountants within the meaning of the Act and the
     applicable

                                     - 15 -

<PAGE>

     published rules and regulations thereunder and stating in effect that:

                 (i)     in their opinion the audited financial statements and
          financial statement schedules and pro forma financial statements
          included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and reported
          on by them comply in form in all material respects with the applicable
          accounting requirements of the Act and the related published rules and
          regulations;

                (ii)     on the basis of a reading of the latest unaudited
          financial statements made available by the Company and its
          subsidiaries; their limited review in accordance with standards
          established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
          of the unaudited interim financial information for the six month
          period ended March 31, 1996 and as at March 31, 1996, as indicated in
          their report dated March 31, 1996; carrying out certain specified
          procedures (but not an examination in accordance with generally
          accepted auditing standards) which would not necessarily reveal
          matters of significance with respect to the comments set forth in such
          letter; a reading of the minutes of the meetings of the stockholders,
          directors and finance and audit committees of the Company and
          inquiries of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility
          for financial and accounting matters of the Company and its
          subsidiaries as to transactions and events subsequent to September 30,
          1995, nothing came to their attention which caused them to believe
          that:

                    (A)  any unaudited financial statements included in the
               Registration Statement and the Prospectus do not comply in form
               in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements
               of the Act and with the published rules and regulations of the
               Commission with respect to registration statements on Form S-1;
               and said unaudited financial statements are not in conformity
               with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis
               substantially consistent with that of the audited financial
               statements included in the Registration Statement and the
               Prospectus; or

                    (B)  with respect to the period subsequent to March 31,
               1996, there were any changes, at a specified date not more than
               five business days prior to the date of the letter, in the long
               term debt of the Company and its subsidiaries or

                                     - 16 -

<PAGE>

               capital stock of the Company or decreases in the stockholders'
               equity of the Company as compared with the amounts shown on the
               March 31, 1996 consolidated balance sheet included in the
               Registration Statement and the Prospectus, or for the period from
               April 1, 1996 to such specified date there were any decreases, as
               compared with the corresponding period in the preceding fiscal
               year, in net sales, gross profit, income from operations, or in
               total or per share net income of the Company and its
               subsidiaries, except in all instances for changes or decreases
               set forth in such letter, in which case the letter shall be
               accompanied by an explanation by the Company as to the
               significance thereof unless said explanation is not deemed
               necessary by the Representatives;

                    (iii)     they have performed certain other specified
          procedures as a result of which they determined that certain
          information of an accounting, financial or statistical nature (which
          is limited to accounting, financial or statistical information derived
          from the general accounting records of the Company and its
          subsidiaries) set forth in the Registration Statement and the
          Prospectus and in Exhibits 11 and 12 to the Registration Statement,
          including the information set forth under the captions "Summary
          Historical and Pro Forma Financial Data," "Capitalization," "Unaudited
          Pro Forma Combined Financial Information," "Selected Historical
          Financial Data" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
          Condition and Results of Operations" in the Prospectus, agrees with
          the accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries, excluding
          any questions of legal interpretation; and

                (iv)     on the basis of a reading of the unaudited pro forma
          financial statements included in the Registration Statement and the
          Prospectus (the "pro forma financial statements"); carrying out
          certain specified procedures; inquiries of certain officials of the
          Company and Aviall who have responsibility for financial and
          accounting matters; and proving the arithmetic accuracy of the
          application of the pro forma adjustments to the historical amounts in
          the pro forma financial statements, nothing came to their attention
          which caused them to believe that the pro forma financial statements
          do not comply in form in all material respects with the applicable
          accounting requirements of Rule 11-02 of Regulation S-X or that the
          pro forma adjustments have not been properly applied to the historical
          amounts in the compilation of such statements.

     supplement thereto at the date of the letter.

          (g)  At the Execution Time and at the Closing Date, Price Waterhouse
     LLP shall have furnished to the Representatives a letter or letters, dated
     respectively as of the Execution Time and as of the Closing Date, in form
     and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives, confirming
     that they are independent accountants within the meaning of the Act and the
     applicable published rules and regulations thereunder and stating in effect
     that:

                 (i)     in their opinion the audited financial statements and
          financial statement schedules included in the Registration Statement
          and the Prospectus and reported on by them comply in form in all
          material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the
          Act and the related published rules and regulations;

                (ii)     on the basis of a reading of the latest unaudited
          financial statements made available by the Aviall Business; their
          limited review in accordance with standards established by the
          American Institute of Certified Public Accountants of the unaudited
          interim financial information for the three month period ended March
          31, 1996 and as at March 31, 1996, as indicated in their report dated
          March 31, 1996; carrying out certain specified procedures (but not an
          examination in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards)
          which would not necessarily reveal matters of significance with
          respect to the comments set forth in such letter; and inquiries of
          certain officials of the Aviall Business who have responsibility for
          financial and accounting matters of the Aviall Business and its
          subsidiaries as to transactions and events subsequent to December 31,
          1995, nothing came to their attention which caused them to believe
          that:

                    (A)  any unaudited financial statements of the Aviall
               Business included in the Registration Statement and the
               Prospectus do not comply in form in all material respects with
               applicable accounting requirements of the Act and with the
               published rules and regulations of the Commission with respect to
               registration statements on Form S-1; and said unaudited financial
               statements are not in conformity with generally accepted
               accounting principles applied on a basis substantially consistent
               with that of the audited

                    (B)  with respect to the period subsequent to March 31,
               1996, there were any changes, at a specified date not more than
               five business days prior to the date of the letter, in the total
               debt of the Aviall Business and its subsidiaries or decreases in
               the Aviall investment of the Aviall Business or total assets of
               the Aviall Business as compared with the amounts shown on the
               March 31, 1996 consolidated balance sheet included in the
               Registration Statement and the Prospectus, or for the period from
               April 1, 1996 to such specified date there were any decreases, as
               compared with the corresponding period in the preceding fiscal
               year, in net sales, gross profits or in earnings (loss) of the
               Aviall Business and its subsidiaries, except in all instances for
               changes or decreases set forth in such letter, in which case the
               letter shall be accompanied by an explanation by the Company as
               to the significance thereof unless said explanation is not deemed
               necessary by the Representatives; and

               (iii)     they have performed certain other specified procedures
          as a result of which they determined that certain information of an
          accounting, financial or statistical nature (which is limited to
          accounting, financial or statistical information derived from the
          general accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries) set
          forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus agrees with the
          accounting records of the Aviall Business, excluding any questions of
          legal interpretation.

          References to the Prospectus in this paragraph (g) include any
     supplement thereto at the date of the letter.

          (h)  At the Execution Time, KPMG Peat Marwick LLP shall have furnished
     to the Representatives a letter or letters, dated respectively as of the
     Execution Time and as of the Closing Date, in form and substance reasonably
     satisfactory to the Representatives, confirming that they are independent
     accountants within the meaning of the Act and the applicable published
     rules and regulations thereunder and stating in effect that:

                 (i)     in their opinion the audited financial statements and
          financial statement schedules included in the Registration Statement
          and the Prospectus and reported on by them comply in form in all
          material

                                     - 19 -

<PAGE>

          respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and
          the related published rule and regulations; and

                (ii)     they have performed certain other specified procedures
          as a result of which they determined that certain information of an
          accounting, financial or statistical nature (which is limited to
          accounting, financial or statistical information derived from the
          general accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries) set
          forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus agrees with the
          accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries, excluding any
          questions of legal interpretation.

          (i)  Subsequent to the Execution Time or, if earlier, the dates as of
     which information is given in the Registration Statement (exclusive of any
     amendment thereof) and the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement
     thereto), there shall not have been (i) any change or decrease specified in
     the letter or letters referred to in paragraphs (f) and (g) of this Section
     6 or (ii) any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in
     or affecting the business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries
     the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above,
     is, in the judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to
     make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery
     of the Shares as contemplated by the Registration Statement (exclusive of
     any amendment thereof) and the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement
     thereto).

          (j)  Subsequent to the Execution Time, there shall not have been any
     decrease in the rating of any of the Company's debt securities by any
     "nationally recognized statistical rating organization" (as defined for
     purposes of Rule 436(g) under the Act) or any notice given of any intended
     or potential decrease in any such rating or of a possible change in any
     such rating that does not indicate the direction of the possible change.

          (k)  Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to
     the Representatives such further information, certificates and documents as
     the Representatives may reasonably request.

          (l)  The Representatives shall have received on each Closing Date from
     Greenberg, Traurig, Hoffman, Lipoff, Rosen & Quentel, P.A., counsel for the
     Company, an opinion, addressed to the Representatives and dated such
     Closing Date, and stating in effect that:

                    (i)  the Company has been duly organized and is validly
          existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State
          of Delaware.  Each subsidiary of the Company has been duly
          incorporated or formed and is an existing corporation in good standing
          under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or
          organization.  The Company and its subsidiaries are duly qualified and
          in good standing as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in
          which the character or location of its assets or properties (owned,
          leased or licensed) or the nature of its business makes such
          qualification necessary except for such jurisdictions where the
          failure to so qualify would not have a material adverse effect on the
          assets or properties, business, results of operations or financial
          condition of the Company or its subsidiaries, taken as a consolidated
          whole.  The Company has no subsidiaries other than the Subsidiary
          Guarantors party to the Indenture and, on the Closing Date, Aviall
          U.K. (as defined in the Prospectus), and does not control, directly or
          indirectly, any corporation, partnership, joint venture, association
          or other business organization.   The Company and its subsidiaries
          have all requisite power and authority, and to such counsel's
          knowledge after due investigation all necessary authorizations,
          approvals, consents, orders, licenses, certificates and permits of and
          from all governmental or regulatory bodies or any other person or
          entity, to own, lease and license its assets and properties and
          conduct its businesses as now being conducted and as described in the
          Registration Statement and the Prospectus, except for such licenses,
          certificates or permits which, if not obtained, would not have a
          material adverse effect on the Company or its subsidiaries, taken as a
          consolidated whole; and the Company has all such corporate power and
          authority, and such authorizations, approvals, consents, orders,
          licenses, certificates and permits to enter into, deliver and perform
          this Agreement and to issue and sell the Shares (except as may be
          required under the Securities Act and state and foreign Blue Sky
          laws);

                    (ii) As of March 31, 1996, the Company had an authorized and
          outstanding capital stock as set forth under the caption
          "Capitalization" in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.
          All of the outstanding shares of Common Stock have been duly and
          validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable and none of them
          was issued in violation of any preemptive or other similar right.  The
          Shares, when issued (in the case of Shares to be sold by the Company)
          and sold pursuant to

                                     - 21 -

<PAGE>

          this Agreement, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and
          nonassessable and none of them will be issued in violation of any
          preemptive or other similar right.  Except as disclosed in the
          Registration Statement and the Prospectus, there is no outstanding
          option, warrant or other right calling for the issuance of, and no
          commitment, plan or arrangement to issue, any share of stock of the
          Company or any security convertible into, or exercisable or
          exchangeable for, such stock.  The Common Stock and the Shares conform
          in all material respects to all statements in relation thereto
          contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus;

                    (iii)     no holders of securities of the Company have
          rights to the registration of such securities under the Registration
          Statement;

                    (iv)      this Agreement has been duly and validly executed
          and delivered by the Company and constitutes and will constitute the
          legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against
          the Company in accordance with its terms, except (A) as the
          enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
          moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of
          creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles and
          (B) to the extent that rights to indemnity or contribution under this
          Agreement may be limited by Federal and state securities laws or the
          public policy underlying such laws.

                    (v)       the Company and each subsidiary have all necessary
          corporate power and authority to enter into and consummate the
          Transaction and execute, deliver and perform their obligations under
          the Transaction Documents to which they are a party; each Transaction
          Document has been or, by the Closing Date, will be duly executed and
          delivered by the Company and each of it subsidiaries party thereto
          substantially in the form previously delivered to you and, when
          executed and delivered by the Company or such subsidiary, will
          constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company and
          such subsidiary enforceable against the Company or such subsidiary, as
          the case may be, in accordance with their respective terms, except (A)
          as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy,
          insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement
          of creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles and
          (B) to the extent that rights to indemnity or contribution under the
          Note Underwriting Agreement may be limited by

                                     - 22 -

          Federal and state securities laws or the public policy underlying such
          laws;

               (vi)      to such counsel's knowledge after due investigation,
          each of the Company and its subsidiaries is not in violation of any
          term or provision of its charter or by-laws;

               (vii)     neither the execution, delivery and performance of this
          Agreement and the Transaction Documents by the Company and its
          subsidiaries party thereto nor the consummation of any of the
          transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, the
          issuance and sale by the Company of the Shares) will give rise to a
          right to terminate or accelerate the due date of any payment due
          under, or conflict with or result in the breach of any term or
          provision of, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice
          or lapse of time or both would constitute a default) under, or require
          any consent or waiver under, or result in the execution or imposition
          of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any properties or assets of
          the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of, (i) to such
          counsel's knowledge after due investigation, any indenture, mortgage,
          deed of trust or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or
          of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its properties
          or businesses is bound, (ii) any term or provision of its charter or
          by-laws or (iii) to such counsel's knowledge after due investigation,
          any franchise, license, permit, judgment, decree, order, statute, rule
          or regulation, in any such case where termination, acceleration,
          conflict, breach, default, event of default, lien, charge,
          encumbrance, whether or not asserted or imposed, would have a material
          adverse effect on the assets or properties, business, results of
          operations, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of the
          Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a consolidated whole;

               (viii)    to such counsel's knowledge after due investigation, no
          default exists, and no event has occurred which with notice or lapse
          of time or both would constitute a default, in the due performance and
          observance of any term, covenant or condition, by the Company and its
          subsidiaries, of any agreement, instrument or other instrument to
          which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it
          or any of its subsidiaries' properties or business may be bound or
          affected which default or event would have a material adverse effect
          on the assets or properties, business, results of operations,
          prospects or condition

          (financial or otherwise) of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as
          a consolidated whole;

               (ix) except as disclosed in the Registration Statement and the
          Prospectus, to such counsel's knowledge after due investigation, there
          are no pending actions, suits or proceedings (governmental or
          otherwise) against or affecting the Company, any of its subsidiaries
          or any of their respective properties that, if determined adversely to
          the Company or any of its subsidiaries, could individually or in the
          aggregate have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or
          business, properties, net worth or results of operations of the
          Company and its subsidiaries taken as a consolidated whole, or would
          materially and adversely affect the ability of the Company or any of
          its subsidiaries to perform their respective obligations under this
          Agreement, or which are otherwise material in the context of the sale
          of the Shares; and, to such counsel's knowledge after due
          investigation, no such actions, suits or proceedings are threatened;

               (x)  the Registration Statement has become effective under the
          Act; any required filing of the Prospectus, and any supplements
          thereto, pursuant to Rule 424(b) has been made in the manner and
          within the time period required by Rule 424(b); to the best knowledge
          of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
          Registration Statement has been issued, no proceedings for that
          purpose have been instituted or threatened and the Registration
          Statement and the Prospectus (other than the financial statements and
          other financial and statistical information contained therein as to
          which such counsel need express no opinion) comply as to form in all
          material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act and the
          respective rules thereunder; and such counsel has no reason to believe
          that at the Effective Date the Registration Statement contained any
          untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material
          fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
          therein not misleading or that the Prospectus includes any untrue
          statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact
          necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
          circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

               (xi)  the statements in the prospectus under
          "Business--Government Regulation"; "--Environmental Matters"; "--Legal
          Proceedings"; "Certain Transactions";

                                     - 24 -

<PAGE>

          "Description of Capital Stock"; "Shares Eligible For Future Sale"; and
          "Description of Certain Indebtedness" insofar as such statements
          constitute a summary of documents referred to therein or matters of
          law, are accurate summaries of the material provisions thereof and
          accurately present the information required with respect to such
          documents and matters.  All contracts and other documents required to
          be filed as exhibits to, or described in, the Registration Statement
          have been so filed with the Commission or are described as required in
          the Registration Statement, as the case may be.

          To the extent deemed advisable by such counsel, they may rely as to
matters of fact on certificates of responsible officers of the Company and
public officials.  Copies of such certificates shall be furnished to the
Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters.

          In addition, such counsel shall state that such counsel has
participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the
Company, representatives of the Representatives and representatives of the
independent certified public accountants of the Company, at which conferences
the contents of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and related
matters were discussed and, although such counsel is not passing upon and does
not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the
statements contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (except as
specified in the foregoing opinion), on the basis of the foregoing no facts have
come to the attention of such counsel which have caused such counsel to believe
that the Registration Statement at the time it became effective and at each
Closing Date contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, or that the Prospectus as of its date and at
each Closing Date contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted
to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (it
being understood that such counsel need not express any belief with respect to
the financial statements and schedules and other financial data included in the
Registration Statement or the Prospectus).

          (m)  The Representatives shall have received on each Closing Date from
     counsel for the Selling Stockholder, an opinion, addressed to the
     Representatives and dated such Closing Date, and stating in effect that:

               (i) This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and
          delivered by the Selling Stockholder and

                                     - 25 -

          constitutes and will constitute the legal, valid and binding
          obligation of the Selling Stockholder, enforceable against the Selling
          Stockholder in accordance with its terms, except (i) as the
          enforceability hereof and thereof may be limited by bankruptcy,
          insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement
          of creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles and
          (ii) to the extent that rights to indemnity or contribution under this
          Agreement may be limited by federal and state securities laws or the
          public policy underlying such laws.

               (ii) To such counsel's knowledge after due investigation, no
          consent, approval, authorization or order of any Federal or state
          court or governmental agency or body is required for the performance
          of this Agreement by the Selling Stockholder or the sale by the
          Selling Stockholder of the Shares to be sold by it hereunder, except
          such as have been obtained under the Securities Act and such as may be
          required under state securities or Blue Sky laws in connection with
          the purchase and distribution of such Shares by the several
          Underwriters (as to which such counsel need express no opinion) and
          such as may be required under the rules of the National Association of
          Securities Dealers, Inc. with respect to the underwriting arrangements
          reflected in this Agreement (as to which such counsel need express no
          opinion).

               (iii) Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement and the
          Prospectus, to such counsel's knowledge after due investigation, there
          are no pending actions, suits or proceedings against or affecting the
          Selling Stockholder, or any of its properties that, if determined
          adversely to the Selling Stockholder, could individually or in the
          aggregate have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or
          business, properties, net worth or results of operations of the
          Selling Stockholder, or would materially and adversely affect the
          ability of the Selling Stockholder to perform its obligations under
          this Agreement, or which are otherwise material in the context of the
          sale of the Shares; and no such actions, suits or proceedings are
          threatened.

               (iv) Each of the Underwriters has received good and valid title
          to the Shares being sold by the Selling Stockholder hereunder, free
          and clear of any liens, encumbrances, security interests and claims
          whatsoever.

          To the extent deemed advisable by such counsel, they may rely as to
matters of fact on certificates of responsible officers of the Company, the
Selling Stockholder and public officials.  Copies of such certificates shall be
furnished to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters.

          (n)  All proceedings taken in connection with the sale of the Firm
     Shares and the Option Shares as herein contemplated shall be reasonably
     satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives and their counsel
     and the Underwriters shall have received from Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP a

     matters.

     incumbency of the person or persons authorized to execute and deliver the

          (p)  The Representatives shall have received on each Closing Date

     standing of the Company, listing all charter documents on file,

     Company nor any of its affiliates does business with the government of Cuba
     or with any person or affiliate located in Cuba.

          (r)  At or prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have entered
     into the New Credit Facility; no event shall have occurred and be
     continuing, the occurrence or continuance of which would relieve the
     lenders named therein of their obligation to advance funds, or preclude
     them from advancing funds, to the Company pursuant to the terms of the New
     Credit Facility; the New Credit Facility shall conform in all material
     respects to the terms and provisions described in the Prospectus; and the
     Company shall have provided to you and your counsel copies of such closing
     documents delivered to the lenders as you or your counsel may reasonably
     request (including originals addressed to you of any legal opinions of
     counsel for the Company).

          (s)  At the Closing Date, the Purchase Agreement shall be in full
     force and effect; the closing contemplated by the Purchase Agreement shall
     have been consummated in accordance with the terms thereof in all material
     respects (except to the extent any conditions precedent have been waived
     with your prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
     withheld); and the Company shall have provided to you or your counsel
     copies of all closing documents delivered to the parties to the
     transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (including originals
     addressed to you of any legal opinions of counsel for the Company).

          (t)  At the Closing Date, the Company shall have issued and sold the
     Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the Note Underwriting Agreement.

          6.   COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY AND THE SELLING STOCKHOLDER.  (A) The
Company, and where specifically stated to be a covenant of the Selling
Stockholder, the Selling Stockholder, covenants and agrees as follows:

          (a)  The Company shall prepare the Prospectus in a form approved by
     the Representatives and file such Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under
     the Securities Act not later than the Commission's close of business on the
     second business day following the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
     or, if such second business day would be more than fifteen business days
     after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or any post-
     effective amendment thereto, such earlier date as would permit such
     prospectus to be filed without filing a post-effective amendment as set

                                     - 28 -

<PAGE>

     forth in Rule 430A(a)(3) under the Securities Act, and shall promptly
     advise the Representatives (i) when the Registration Statement shall have
     become effective, (ii) when any amendment thereof shall have become
     effective, (iii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment of the
     Registration Statement or the Prospectus or for any additional information,
     (iv) of the prevention or suspension of the use of any preliminary
     prospectus or the Prospectus or of the issuance by the Commission of any
     stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or
     the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and (v)
     of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the
     suspension of the qualification of the Shares for sale in any jurisdiction
     or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.  The
     Company shall not file any amendment of the Registration Statement or
     supplement to the Prospectus unless the Company has furnished the
     Representatives a copy for its review prior to filing and shall not file
     any such proposed amendment or supplement to which the Representatives
     reasonably object.  The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the
     issuance of any such stop order and, if issued, to obtain as soon as
     possible the withdrawal thereof.

          (b)  If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Shares is
     required to be delivered under the Securities Act and the Rules, any event
     occurs as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented
     would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
     material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the
     circumstances under which they were made not misleading, or if it shall be
     necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with the
     Securities Act or the Rules, the Company promptly shall prepare and file
     with the Commission, subject to the second sentence of paragraph (a) of
     this Section 6(A), an amendment or supplement which shall correct such
     statement or omission or an amendment which shall effect such compliance.

          (c)  The Company shall make generally available to its security
     holders and to the Representatives as soon as practicable, but not later
     than 45 days after the end of the 12-month period beginning at the end of
     the fiscal quarter of the Company during which the Effective Date occurs
     (or 90 days if such 12-month period coincides with the Company's fiscal
     year), an earnings statement (which need not be audited) of the Company,
     covering such 12-month period, which shall satisfy the provisions of
     Section 11(a) of the Securities Act or Rule 158 of the Rules.

                                     - 29 -

<PAGE>

          (d)  The Company shall furnish to the Representatives and counsel for
     the Underwriters, without charge, signed copies of the Registration
     Statement (including all exhibits thereto and amendments thereof) and to
     each other Underwriter a copy of the Registration Statement (without
     exhibits thereto) and all amendments thereof and, so long as delivery of a
     prospectus by an Underwriter or dealer may be required by the Securities
     Act or the Rules, as many copies of any preliminary prospectus and the
     Prospectus and any amendments thereof and supplements thereto as the
     Representatives may reasonably request.

          (e)  The Company and the Selling Stockholder shall cooperate with the
     Representatives and their counsel in endeavoring to qualify the Shares for
     offer and sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives
     may designate and shall maintain such qualifications in effect so long as
     required for the distribution of the Shares; provided, however, that
     neither the Company nor any Selling Stockholder shall be required in
     connection therewith, as a condition thereof, to qualify as a foreign
     corporation or to execute a general consent to service of process in any
     jurisdiction or subject itself to taxation as doing business in any
     jurisdiction.

          (f)  For a period of five years after the date of this Agreement, the
     Company shall supply to the Representatives, and to each other Underwriter
     who may so request in writing, copies of such financial statements and
     other periodic and special reports as the Company may from time to time
     distribute generally to the holders of any class of its capital stock and
     furnish to the Representatives a copy of each annual or other report it
     shall be required to file with the Commission.

          (g) Without the prior written consent of the Representatives, for a
     period of 90 days after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not
     issue, sell or register with the Commission, or otherwise encumber or
     dispose of, directly or indirectly, any equity securities of the Company
     (or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for
     equity securities of the Company), except for (i) the issuance of the
     Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement and (ii) the issuance of
     shares pursuant to the exercise of outstanding options or warrants or the
     grant or issuance of options under the Company's existing stock option and
     employee stock purchase plans.

          (h)  On or before completion of this offering, the Company shall make
     all filings required under applicable

                                     - 30 -

<PAGE>

     securities laws and by the Nasdaq National Market (including any required
     registration under the Exchange Act).

          (B)  The Company agrees to pay, or reimburse if paid by the
Representatives, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are
consummated or this Agreement is terminated, all costs and expenses of the
Company and the Selling Stockholder (other than costs and expenses of the
Selling Stockholder set forth in Section 6(c)) incident to the public offering
of the Shares and the performance of the obligations of the Company under this
Agreement including those relating to (i) the preparation, printing, filing and
distribution of the Registration Statement including all exhibits thereto, each
preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus, all amendments and supplements to the
Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and the printing, filing and
distribution of this Agreement; (ii) the preparation and delivery of
certificates for the Shares to the Underwriters; (iii) the registration or
qualification of the Shares for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky
laws of the various jurisdictions referred to in Section 6(A)(e), including the
fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters in connection with such
registration and qualification and the preparation, printing, distribution and
shipment of preliminary and supplementary Blue Sky memoranda; (iv) the
furnishing (including costs of shipping and mailing) to the Representatives and
to the Underwriters of copies of each preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus and
all amendments or supplements to the Prospectus, and of the several documents
required by this Section to be so furnished, as may be reasonably requested for
use in connection with the offering and sale of the Shares by the Underwriters
or by dealers to whom Shares may be sold; (v) the filing fees of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. in connection with its review of the
terms of the public offering; (vi) the furnishing (including costs of shipping
and mailing) to the Representatives and to the Underwriters of copies of all
reports and information required by Section 6(A)(f); and (vii) inclusion of the
Shares for quotation on the Nasdaq National Market.

          (C)  The Selling Stockholder agrees that it will pay (i) all fees and
expenses of the Selling Stockholder's counsel and (ii) all stock transfer taxes,
stamp duties and other similar taxes, if any, payable (A) upon the sale,
issuance or delivery of the Shares to be sold by the Selling Stockholder to the
Underwriters, (B) upon the purchase by the Underwriters of the Shares to be sold
by the Selling Stockholder, (C) upon resales of the Shares in connection with
the distribution contemplated hereby or (D) in connection with the consummation
by the Selling Stockholder of any of its obligations under this Agreement.

          7.   INDEMNIFICATION.

          (a)  Each of the Company and the Selling Stockholder agree to
     indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who
     controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
     Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims,
     damages and liabilities, joint or several (including any reasonable
     investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and
     any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any
     claim asserted), to which they, or any of them, may become subject under
     the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state law or
     regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
     damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement
     or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary
     prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any amendment
     thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon any
     omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to
     be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
     misleading; provided, however, that such indemnity shall not inure to the
     benefit of any Underwriter (or any person controlling such Underwriter) on
     account of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising from the sale
     of the Shares to any person by such Underwriter (i) if such untrue
     statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in
     such preliminary prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus,
     or such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with
     information furnished in writing to the Company by the Representatives on
     behalf of any Underwriter specifically for use therein, or, (ii) as to any
     preliminary prospectus, with respect to any Underwriter, to the extent that
     any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Underwriter results from
     an untrue statement of a material fact contained in, or the omission of a
     material fact from, such preliminary prospectus, which untrue statement or
     omission was corrected in the Prospectus, if such Underwriter sold Shares
     to the person alleging such loss, claim, damage or liability without
     sending or giving, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a
     copy of the Prospectus, unless such failure resulted from the failure of
     the Company to deliver copies of the Prospectus to such Underwriter on a
     timely basis to permit such sending or giving; provided, that the
     Underwriters may seek to enforce their rights to indemnity against the
     Selling Stockholder pursuant to this Section 7(a) only if the Underwriters
     believe in good faith that there is a material risk that they may not
     obtain such payment from the Company despite using their best efforts to do
     so.  The Company and the Selling Stockholder may agree, as among themselves
     and

                                     - 32 -

<PAGE>

     without limiting the rights of the Underwriters under this Agreement, as to
     their respective amounts of such liability for which they each shall be
     responsible.  This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability
     which the Company or the Selling Stockholder may otherwise have; provided,
     however, that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
     the Selling Stockholder shall not be liable under this Section 7(a), or
     under any other provision of this Agreement, for any amount in excess of
     the net proceeds received by the Selling Shareholder.

          (b)  Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify
     and hold harmless the Company, the Selling Stockholder, each person, if
     any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the
     Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, each director of the
     Company, and each officer of the Company who signs the Registration
     Statement, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company
     and the Selling Stockholder to each Underwriter, but only insofar as such
     losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon any
     untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission which
     was made in any preliminary prospectus, the Registration Statement or the
     Prospectus, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, contained in
     the last paragraph of the cover page, in the paragraphs relating to
     stabilization on the inside front cover page of the Prospectus and the
     statements with respect to the public offering of the Shares under the
     caption "Underwriting" in the Prospectus; provided, however, that the
     obligation of each Underwriter to indemnify the Company or the Selling
     Stockholder (including any controlling person, director or officer thereof)
     shall be limited to the net proceeds received by the Company or the Selling
     Stockholder, as the case may be.

          (c)  Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified
     under this Section will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement
     of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a
     claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this
     Section, notify each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such
     action, suit or proceeding, enclosing a copy of all papers served.  No
     indemnification provided for in Section 7(a) or 7(b) shall be available to
     any party who shall fail to give notice as provided in this Section 7(c) if
     the party to whom notice was not given was unaware of the proceeding to
     which such notice would have related and was prejudiced by the failure to
     give such notice but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party of
     any such action, suit or proceeding shall not relieve it from any liability
     that it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or

                                     - 33 -

<PAGE>

     otherwise than under this Section.  In case any such action, suit or
     proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall
     notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying
     party shall be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it shall
     wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to
     assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
     indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such
     indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and the
     approval by the indemnified party of such counsel, the indemnifying party
     shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other
     expenses, except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of
     investigation subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection
     with the defense thereof.  The indemnified party shall have the right to
     employ its separate counsel in any such action, but the fees and expenses
     of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless
     (i) the employment of counsel by such indemnified party has been authorized
     in writing by the indemnifying parties, (ii) the indemnified party shall
     have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between
     the indemnifying parties and the indemnified party in the conduct of the
     defense of such action (in which case the indemnifying parties shall not
     have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the
     indemnified party), it being understood that the indemnifying parties shall
     not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel
     representing the indemnified party to such action or (iii) the indemnifying
     parties shall not have employed counsel to assume the defense of such
     action within a reasonable time after notice of the commencement thereof,
     in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the
     expense of the indemnifying parties.  An indemnifying party shall not be
     liable for any settlement of any action, suit, proceeding or claim effected
     without its written consent.

          8.   CONTRIBUTION.  In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in
Section 7(a) or 7(b) is due in accordance with its terms but for any reason is
held to be unavailable from the Company or the Selling Stockholder or the
Underwriters, as the case may be, the Company, the Selling Stockholder and the
Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and
liabilities (including any investigation, legal and other expenses reasonably
incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action,
suit or proceeding or any claims asserted, but after deducting any contribution
received by any person entitled hereunder to contribution from any person who
may be liable for contribution) to which the Company, the Selling Stockholder
and 

                                     - 34 -

<PAGE>

one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is 
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the 
Selling Stockholder on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from 
the offering of the Shares or, if such allocation is not permitted by 
applicable law or indemnification is not available as a result of the 
indemnifying party not having received notice as provided in Section 7 
hereof, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative 
benefits referred to above but also the relative fault of the Company and the 
Selling Stockholder on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in 
connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, 
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant 
equitable considerations.  The relative benefits received by the Company, the 
Selling Stockholder and the Underwriters shall be deemed to be in the same 
proportion as (x) the total proceeds from the offering (net of underwriting 
discount but before deducting expenses) received by the Company or the 
Selling Stockholder, as set forth in the table on the cover page of the 
Prospectus, bear to (y) the underwriting discount received by the 
Underwriters, as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus.  
The relative fault of the Company, the Selling Stockholder and the 
Underwriters shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether 
the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact related to 
information supplied by the Company, the Selling Stockholder or the 
Underwriters and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to 
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 
 The Company, the Selling Stockholder and the Underwriters agree that it 
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 
were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated 
as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which 
does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above.  
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, (i) in no case shall any 
Underwriter (except as may be provided in the Agreement Among Underwriters) 
be liable or responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting 
discount applicable to the Shares purchased by such Underwriter hereunder, 
and (ii) the Underwriters may seek to enforce their rights to contribution 
against any Selling Stockholder pursuant to this Section 8 only if the 
Underwriters believe in good faith that there is a material risk that they 
may not obtain such contribution from the Company despite using their best 
efforts to do so.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, in no 
case shall a Selling Stockholder be liable or responsible for any amount in 
excess of the net proceeds received by the Selling Shareholder, provided, 
however, that no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the 
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to 
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent 
misrepresentation.  For purposes of this Section 8, each person, if any, who 
controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities

                                     - 35 -


<PAGE>

Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to
contribution as such Underwriter, and each person, if any, who controls the
Company within the meaning of the Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section
20(a) of the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the
Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall have the same
rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to clauses (i) and
(ii) in the second preceding sentence and to the immediately preceding sentence
of this Section 8.  Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after
receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such
party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another
party or parties under this Section, notify such party or parties from whom
contribution may be sought, but the omission so to notify such party or parties
from whom contribution may be sought shall not relieve the party or parties from
whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have
hereunder or otherwise than under this Section.  No party shall be liable for
contribution with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or claim settled
without its written consent.  The Underwriter's obligations to contribute
pursuant to this Section 8 are several in proportion to their respective
underwriting commitments and not joint.

          9.   TERMINATION.  This Agreement may be terminated with respect to
the Shares to be purchased on a Closing Date by the Representatives by notifying
the Company at any time

          (a)  in the absolute discretion of the Representatives at or before
     any Closing Date: (i) if on or prior to such date, any domestic or
     international event or act or occurrence has materially disrupted, or in
     the opinion of the Representatives will in the future materially disrupt,
     the securities markets; (ii) if there has occurred any new outbreak or
     material escalation of hostilities or other calamity or crisis the effect
     of which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make
     it, in the judgment of the Representatives, inadvisable to proceed with the
     offering; (iii) if there shall be such a material adverse change in general
     financial, political or economic conditions or the effect of international
     conditions on the financial markets in the United States is such as to make
     it, in the judgment of the Representatives, inadvisable or impracticable to
     market the Shares; (iv) if trading in the Shares has been suspended by the
     Commission or trading generally on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. or on
     the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation National
     Market System has been suspended or limited, or minimum or maximum ranges
     for prices for securities shall have been fixed, or maximum ranges for
     prices for securities have been required, by said exchanges

                                     - 36 -

<PAGE>

     or by order of the Commission, the National Association of Securities
     Dealers, Inc., or any other governmental or regulatory authority; or (v) if
     a banking moratorium has been declared by any state or Federal authority,
     or

          (b)  at or before any Closing Date, that any of the conditions
     specified in Section 5 shall not have been fulfilled when and as required
     by this Agreement.

          If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to any of its provisions,
neither the Company nor the Selling Stockholder shall be under any liability to
any Underwriter, and no Underwriter shall be under any liability to the Company
or the Selling Stockholder, except that (y) if this Agreement is terminated by
the Representatives or the Underwriters because of any failure, refusal or
inability on the part of the Company or the Selling Stockholder to comply with
the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, the Company
will reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the
fees and disbursements of their counsel) incurred by them in connection with the
proposed purchase and sale of the Shares or in contemplation of performing their
obligations hereunder and (z) no Underwriter who shall have failed or refused to
purchase the Shares agreed to be purchased by it under this Agreement, without
some reason sufficient hereunder to justify termination of its obligations under
this Agreement, shall be relieved of liability to the Company, the Selling
Stockholder or to the other Underwriters for damages occasioned by its failure
or refusal.

          10.  SUBSTITUTION OF UNDERWRITERS.  If one or more of the Underwriters
shall fail (other than for a reason sufficient to justify the cancellation or
termination of this Agreement under Section 9) to purchase on any Closing Date
the Shares agreed to be purchased on such Closing Date by such Underwriter or
Underwriters, the Representatives may find one or more substitute underwriters
to purchase such Shares or make such other arrangements as the Representatives
may deem advisable or one or more of the remaining Underwriters may agree to
purchase such Shares in such proportions as may be approved by the
Representatives, in each case upon the terms set forth in this Agreement.  If no
such arrangements have been made by the close of business on the business day
following such Closing Date,

          (a)  if the number of Shares to be purchased by the defaulting
     Underwriters on such Closing Date shall not exceed 10% of the Shares that
     all the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date, then
     each of the nondefaulting Underwriters shall be obligated to purchase such
     Shares on the terms herein set forth in proportion to their respective
     obligations hereunder; provided, that in no event shall the maximum number
     of Shares that any Underwriter has agreed to purchase pursuant to Section 1
     be

                                     - 37 -

<PAGE>

     increased pursuant to this Section 10 by more than one-ninth of such number
     of Shares without the written consent of such Underwriter, or

          (b)  if the number of Shares to be purchased by the defaulting
     Underwriters on such Closing Date shall exceed 10% of the Shares that all
     the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date, then the
     Company shall be entitled to an additional business day within which it
     may, but is not obligated to, find one or more substitute underwriters
     reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives to purchase such Shares upon
     the terms set forth in this Agreement.

          In any such case, either the Representatives or the Company shall have
the right to postpone the applicable Closing Date for a period of not more than
five business days in order that necessary changes and arrangements (including
any necessary amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or
Prospectus) may be effected by the Representatives and the Company.  If the
number of Shares to be purchased on such Closing Date by such defaulting

Stockholder, except in both cases as provided in Sections 6(B), 6(C), 7, 8 and
9.  The provisions of this Section shall not in any way affect the liability of
any defaulting Underwriter to the Company, the Selling Stockholder or the non

effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter,
the Selling Stockholder or the Company or any of the officers, directors or
controlling persons referred to in Sections 7 and 8 hereof, and shall survive
delivery of and payment for the Shares.  The provisions of Sections 6(B), 6(C),
7, 8 and 9 shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

Greenwich Air Services, Inc.
P.O. Box 522187
Miami, Florida  33152

Gentlemen:

     On April 26, 1996, Greenwich Air Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a
Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-4162) (the
"Registration Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Act").  The Registration Statement relates to the sale by (i) the Company of up
to 3,400,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the
"Common Stock"), and an additional 600,000 Shares upon the exercise of the
underwriters' overallotment option and (ii) a selling stockholder (the "Selling
Stockholder") of up to 600,000 shares of Common Stock (such shares of Common
Stock are hereinafter referred to as the "Shares").  We have acted as counsel to
the Company and the Selling Stockholder in connection with preparation and
filing of the Registration Statement.

     In connection with the Registration Statement, we have examined, considered
and relied upon copies of the following documents (collectively, the
"Documents"): (i) the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation and Bylaws; (ii) resolutions of the Company's Board of Directors
authorizing the offering and the issuance of the Shares to be sold by the
Company and related matters; (iii) the Registration Statement and exhibits
thereto; and (iv) such other documents and instruments that we have deemed
necessary for the expression of the opinions herein contained.  In making the
foregoing examinations, we have assumed without investigation the genuineness of
all signatures and the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as
originals, the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents
submitted to us as copies, and the veracity of the Documents.  As to various
questions of fact material to the opinion expressed below, we have relied, to
the extent we deemed reasonably appropriate, upon the representations or
certificates of officers and/or directors of the Company and upon documents,
records and instruments furnished to us by the Company, without independently
verifying the accuracy of such certificates, documents, records or instruments. 

     Based upon the foregoing examination, and subject to the qualifications set
forth below, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly and validly
authorized, and when issued and

delivered in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement  filed as
Exhibit 1.1 to the Registration Statement, will be validly issued, fully paid
and non-assessable.

     Although we have acted as counsel to the Company and the Selling
Stockholder in connection the preparation and filing of the Registration
Statement, our engagement has been limited to certain matters about which we
have been consulted.  Consequently, there exist matters of a legal nature
involving the Company in which we have not been consulted and have not
represented the Company.  This opinion letter is limited to the matters stated
herein and no opinions may be implied or inferred beyond the matters expressly
stated herein.  The opinions expressed herein are given as of this date, and we
assume no obligation to update or supplement our opinions to reflect any facts
or circumstances that may come to our attention or any change in law that may
occur or become effective at a later date.

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and to the reference to our name under the caption "Legal
Matters" in the prospectus comprising a part of the Registration Statement.  In
giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are included within the
category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

                                             Sincerely,


                                             GREENBERG, TRAURIG, HOFFMAN,
                                             LIPOFF, ROSEN & QUENTEL, P.A.

2.1(a)(y)(ii) MINUS (y) the sum of Sections 2.1(a)(y)(iii) and 2.1(a)(y)(iv) at
any time and from time to time shall be referred to as the "Formula Amount".

              (b)    DISCRETIONARY RIGHTS.  The Advance Rates may be increased
by Agent with the consent of the Lenders or decreased by Agent at any time and
from time to time in the good faith exercise of its reasonable discretion;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Agent shall not: (i) decrease any Advance Rate by more
than five (5%) percent during any forty-five (45) day period (for example, from
85% to 80% with respect to any Receivables Advance Rate); or (ii) decrease any
Inventory Advance Rate below 45%.  Borrower consent to any such increases or
decreases and acknowledge that decreasing the Advance Rates may limit or
restrict Advances

requested by Borrower.  Agent shall in each instance give Borrower not less than
five (5) Business Days' prior written notice of its intention to decrease any of
the Advance Rates.

              (c)    INVENTORY ADVANCES.In no event shall the aggregate Advances
with respect to Inventory of Borrower plus the aggregate Inventory Advances
outstanding at any time pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(ii), Section 2.1(b)(ii),
Section 2.1(c)(ii), Section 2.1(d)(ii), Section 2.1(e)(ii) and Section

2.1(e)(iii) and 2.1(f)(iii) of the Affiliate Loan Agreement exceed [$15,000,000]
in the aggregate.

              (e)    UNBILLED RECEIVABLES.  In no event shall the aggregate
Advances with respect to Eligible Unbilled Receivables plus the aggregate
Advances with respect to Eligible Unbilled Receivables outstanding at any time
pursuant to Sections 2.1(d)(iii), 2.1(e)(iii) and 2.1(f)(iii) of the Affiliate
Loan Agreement exceed $12,000,000 in the aggregate.

       2.2    NOTES.  The Advances shall be evidenced by amended and restated
promissory notes of Borrower, substantially in the form of EXHIBIT 2.2 (the
"Notes") with appropriate insertion as to date and principal amount, payable to
the order of each Lender in an amount equal to its respective Commitment
Percentage of Advances.

       2.3    PROCEDURE FOR BORROWING.

              (a)    In the event Borrower desires to obtain a Domestic Rate
Loan Borrower shall give Agent at least one (1) Business Days  prior telephonic
notice ("Advance Request") on or before 11:00 A.M., New York time (except as may
be set forth below) specifying (i) the date of the proposed borrowing (which
shall be a Business Day) and (ii) the type of borrowing and the amount to be
borrowed, which amount on the date of such Advance shall be in a minimum amount
of $250,000 and in integral multiples of $100,000 for borrowings in excess
thereof.  In addition, as a convenient means of effecting Advances, Borrower
will maintain a controlled disbursement account (business checking) with the
Bank at its branch located at 1290 6th Avenue, New York, New York 10104
(collectively, "Checking Accounts").  Each Checking Account will act as a
corporate payable account for Borrower.  Once each Business Day following
receipt by the Bank of its Federal Reserve system clearing (which may be later
than 11:00 a.m. New York time but must be earlier than 1:00 p.m. New York time),
Bank will notify


                                      -17-
<PAGE>

Agent of the total dollar amount of checks presented to Bank for payment for
each Checking Account since the previous Business Day's notification (the
"Payable Amount").  Such notification shall be deemed to be an Advance Request
for an Advance to be made on such Business Day to the respective Borrower's
Checking Account in an amount equal to the Payable Amount, but Agent and Lenders
shall not be obligated to honor such Advance Request except as herein
specifically required.  Any request for an Advance shall be deemed reduced
automatically and without notice so as not to be in excess of, after giving
effect to the requested Advance, an amount which would cause the aggregate
amount of all Advances to be greater than the lesser of (a) for Greenwich, (i)
the Maximum Loan Amount or (ii) the Formula Amount.  Subject to the provisions
of Section 2.7 hereof, the proceeds of each Advance shall be made available by
Agent to Borrower on or before 1:45 p.m., New York time (except with respect to
Advances to the Checking Accounts which shall be made available on or before
1:45 p.m. New York time), on the Business Day specified in the Advance Request
by wire transferring immediately available funds in such amount or causing
immediately available funds in such amount to be wire transferred to the account
of Borrower, as shall be designated to Agent in the Advance Request therefor.

              (b)    Notwithstanding the provisions of 2.3(a) above, in the
event Borrower desires to obtain a Eurodollar Rate Loan, Borrower shall give
Agent at least three (3) Business Days' prior written notice specifying (i) the
date of the proposed borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the type of
borrowing and the amount to be borrowed, which amount on the date of such
Advance shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of
$100,000 for borrowings in excess thereof and (iii) the duration of the first
Interest Period therefor.  Interest Periods for Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be
for 30, 60 or 90 days.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein, no Eurodollar
Rate Loan shall be made (i) until the later to occur of (x) ninety (90) days
following the Effective Date or (y) the date on which the Commitment Percentages
of all Lenders (other than BNYCC) shall aggregate _____%, (ii) upon the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and (iii) if after
giving effect to such Eurodollar Rate Loan more than six (6) shall be
outstanding at such time.

              (c)    Each Interest Period of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall
commence on the date such Eurodollar Rate Loan is made and shall end on such
date as Borrower may elect as set forth in (b)(iii) above provided that:

                     (i)  any Interest Period which would otherwise end on a day
which is not a Business Day shall end on the next preceding or succeeding
Business Day as is the Bank's custom in the market to which such Eurodollar Rate
Loan relates;

                     (ii)    no Interest Period shall end after the last day of
the Term;


                                      -18-
<PAGE>

                     (iii)  any Interest Period which begins on a day for which
there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month during which
such Interest Period is to end, shall (subject to clause (i) above) end on the
last day of such calendar month.

       Borrower shall elect the initial Interest Period applicable to a
Eurodollar Rate Loan by Borrower's notice of borrowing given to Agent pursuant
to Section 2.3(b) or by its notice of conversion given to Agent pursuant to
Section 2.3(d), as the case may be.  Borrower shall elect the duration of each
succeeding Interest Period by giving irrevocable written notice to Agent of such
duration not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the last day of the then
current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan.  If Agent does
not receive timely notice of the Interest Period elected by Borrower, Borrower
shall be deemed to have elected to convert to a Domestic Rate Loan subject to
Section 2.3(d) hereinbelow.

              (d)    Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, Borrower may, on the last Business Day of the then current
Interest Period applicable to any outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan, continue any
such loan in the same aggregate principal amount.  If a Borrower desires to
convert a loan, Borrower shall give Agent not less than three (3) Business Days'
prior written notice, specifying the date of such conversion, the loans to be
converted and if the conversion is from a Domestic Rate Loan to a Eurodollar
Loan, the duration of the first Interest Period therefor.  After giving effect
to each such conversion, there shall not be outstanding more than six (6)
Eurodollar Rate Loans, in the aggregate.

              (e)    At their option and upon three (3) Business Days' prior
written notice, Borrower may prepay the Advances in whole at any time, with
accrued interest on the principal being prepaid to the date of such prepayment.
In the event that any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan is required or
permitted on a date other than the last Business Day of the then current
Interest Period with respect thereto, Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders
therefor in accordance with Section 2.3(f) hereof.

              (f)    Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders and hold Agent
and Lenders harmless from and against any and all losses or expenses that Agent
or any Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of any prepayment or any
default by Borrower in the payment of the principal of or interest on any
Eurodollar Rate Loan or failure by Borrower to complete a borrowing of, a
prepayment of or conversion of or to a Eurodollar Rate Loan after notice thereof
has been given, including (but not limited to) any interest payable by Agent or
Lenders to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its
Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder.

              (g)    Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any
applicable law, treaty, regulation or directive, or any


                                      -19-
<PAGE>

change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall make it
unlawful for any Lender (for purposes of this subsection (g), Section 2.12 and
Section 2.13, the term "Lender" shall include any Lender and the office or
branch where any Lender or any corporation or bank controlling such Lender makes
or maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loans) to make or maintain its Eurodollar Rate
Loans, the obligation of any Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder
shall forthwith be cancelled and Borrower shall, if any affected Eurodollar Rate
Loans are then outstanding, promptly upon request from Agent, either pay all
such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or convert such affected Eurodollar Rate
Loans into Domestic Rate Loans.  If any such payment or conversion of any
Eurodollar Rate Loan is made on a day that is not applicable to such Eurodollar
Rate Loan, Borrower shall pay Lenders, upon Agent's request, such amount or
amounts as may be necessary to compensate Lenders for any loss or expense
sustained or incurred by Lenders in respect of such Eurodollar Rate Loan as a
result of such payment or conversion, including (but not limited to) any
interest or other amounts payable by the Agent or Lenders to lenders of funds
obtained by Agent or Lenders in order to make or maintain such Eurodollar Rate
Loan.  A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the
foregoing sentence submitted by Agent to Borrower shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.

              (h)    Should any amount required to be paid by Borrower as
principal or interest hereunder, or as fees or other charges under this
Agreement or any Other Documents, or with respect to any other Obligation,
become due and payable, same shall be deemed a request for an Advance as of the
date such payment is due, in the amount required to pay in full such interest,
principal, fee, charge or other Obligation under this Agreement and/or any Other
Documents, and such request shall be irrevocable.

       2.4    DISBURSEMENT OF ADVANCE PROCEEDS.  All Advances shall be disbursed
from whichever office or other place Agent may designate from time to time and,
together with any and all other Obligations of Borrower to Agent or any Lender,
shall be charged to Borrower's account on the Agent's books.  During the Term,
Borrower may use the Advances (subject to the limitations set forth in Section
2.1 hereof) by borrowing, prepaying and reborrowing, all in accordance with the
terms and conditions hereof.

       2.5    REPAYMENT OF ADVANCES.The Advances shall be due and payable in
full on the last day of the Term subject to earlier prepayment as herein
provided.

       2.6    REPAYMENT OF EXCESS ADVANCES.

              The aggregate balance of Advances outstanding at any time in
excess of the lesser of (i) Formula Amount as at such time, or (ii) Maximum Loan
Amount shall be immediately due and payable without the necessity of any demand,
at the place designated by Agent, whether or not an Incipient Event of Default


                                      -20-
<PAGE>

or Event of Default has occurred hereunder.  In no event shall the aggregate
balance of Advances outstanding at any time to Borrower exceed the Maximum Loan
Amount.

       2.7    MANNER OF BORROWING AND PAYMENT.  (a) Except as expressly provided
herein, all payments (including prepayments) to be made by Borrower on account
of principal, interest and fees shall be made without set-off or counterclaim
and shall be made to the Agent to the Payment Office, in each case on or prior
to 1:00 p.m., New York time, in Dollars and in immediately available funds.

              (b)    Each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be advanced
according to the Commitment Percentages of the Lenders.

              (c)    (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Sections 2.7(a) and (b) hereof, commencing with the first Business Day following
the Effective Date, each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be advanced by
Agent and each payment by Borrower on account of Revolving Advances shall be
applied first to those Revolving Advances made by Agent.  On or before [1:00
P.M.], New York time, on each Settlement Date commencing with the first
Settlement Date following the Effective Date, Agent and the Lenders shall make
certain payments as follows: (I) if the aggregate amount of new Revolving
Advances made by Agent during the preceding Week exceeds the aggregate amount of
repayments applied to outstanding Revolving Advances during such preceding Week,
then each Lender shall provide Agent with funds in an amount equal to its
Commitment Percentage of the difference between (w) such Revolving Advances and
(x) such repayments and (II) if the aggregate amount of repayments applied to
outstanding Revolving Advances during such Week exceeds the aggregate amount of
new Revolving Advances made during such Week, then Agent shall provide each
Lender with its Commitment Percentage of the difference between (y) such
repayments and (z) such Revolving Advances.

                     (ii)   Each Lender shall be entitled to earn interest at
the applicable Contract Rate on outstanding Advances which it has funded.

                     (iii)  Promptly following each Settlement Date, Agent shall
submit to each Lender a certificate with respect to payments received and
Advances made during the Week immediately preceding such Settlement Date.  Such
certificate of Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

              (d)    If any Lender or Participant (a "benefitted Lender") shall
at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Advances, or interest
thereon, or receive any Collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or
involuntarily or by set-off) in a greater proportion than any such payment to
and Collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other
Lender's Advances, or interest thereon, and such greater proportionate payment
or receipt of Collateral is not expressly permitted hereunder, such benefitted
Lender shall purchase for cash


                                      -21-
<PAGE>

from the other Lenders such portion of each such other Lender's Advances, or
shall provide such other Lender with the benefits of any such Collateral, or the
proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such benefitted Lender to share
the excess payment or benefits of such Collateral or proceeds ratably with each
of the Lenders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if all or any portion of such excess
payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such benefitted Lender, such
purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to
the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  Each Lender so purchasing a
portion of another Lender's Advances may exercise all rights of payment
(including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion
as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

              (e)    Unless Agent shall have been notified by telephone,
confirmed in writing, by any Lender that such Lender will not make the amount
which would constitute its Commitment Percentage of the Advances available to
Agent, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) assume that such Lender shall
make such amount available to Agent and, in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to Borrower a corresponding amount.  Agent will promptly notify
Borrower of its receipt of any such notice from a Lender.  If such amount is
made available to Agent on a date after a Settlement Date, such Lender shall pay
to Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily average
Federal Funds Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days) during such
period as quoted by Agent, times (ii) such amount, times (iii) the number of
days from and including such Settlement Date to the date on which such amount
becomes immediately available to Agent.  A certificate of Agent submitted to any
Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph (e) shall be
conclusive, in the absence of manifest error.  If such amount is not in fact
made available to Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days after such
Settlement Date, Agent shall be entitled to recover such an amount, with
interest thereon at the rate per annum then applicable to Revolving Advances
hereunder, on demand from Borrower; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Agent's right to
such recovery shall not prejudice or otherwise adversely affect Borrower's
rights (if any) against such Lender.

       2.8    STATEMENT OF ACCOUNT.  Agent shall maintain, in accordance with
its customary procedures, a loan account in the name of Borrower in which shall
be recorded the date and amount of each Advance to Borrower made by Agent and
the date and amount of each repayment, prepayment or other payment in respect
thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the failure by Agent to record the date and amount
of any Advance shall not adversely affect Agent and the failure of the Agent to
record the date and amount of any repayment or prepayment of any Advance shall
not adversely affect Borrower nor give it any rights vis a vis Agent.  For each
month, Agent shall send to Borrower a statement showing the accounting for the
Advances made, payments made or credited in respect thereof, and other
transactions between the Agent, Lenders and Borrower,


                                      -22-
<PAGE>

during such month.  The monthly statements shall be deemed correct and binding
upon Borrower in the absence of manifest error, and shall constitute an account
stated between Lenders and Borrower unless Agent receives a written statement of
specific exceptions within thirty (30) days after such statement is received by
Borrower.  The records of Agent with respect to the loan accounts shall be prima
facie evidence of the amounts of Advances and other changes thereto and of
payments applicable thereto.

       2.9    NO DEDUCTIONS.  Borrower shall pay principal, interest, and all
other amounts payable hereunder, or under any Other Documents, without any
deduction whatsoever, including, but not limited to, any deduction for any
setoff or counterclaim.

       2.10   MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS.

              (a)    When Borrower sells or otherwise disposes of any Collateral
(other than Inventory in the ordinary course of business) Borrower shall repay
the Advances in an amount equal to the difference between (i) the cash proceeds
of such sale or other disposition (except as otherwise provided by Section 4.3)
and (ii) the reasonable costs of such sale or other disposition (in the case of
subclauses (i) and (ii) above after giving effect to all tax benefits or
obligations in accordance with GAAP), such repayment to be made promptly but in
no event more than five (5) Business Days following receipt of the net cash
proceeds thereof, and until the date of payment, such proceeds shall be held in
trust for Lenders.  The foregoing shall not be deemed to be implied consent to
any such sale otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions hereof.

       2.11   ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS.  To the extent that Agent may, in the
exercise of its rights under this Agreement, make an expenditure due to
Borrower's failure to perform or comply with its obligations under this
Agreement or any Other Document, any reasonable amounts so expended by Agent may
be charged to Borrower's account as a Revolving Advance and added to the
Obligations.  Agent shall provide Borrower, if requested, with documentation to
evidence such expenditure and shall provide Borrower with notice immediately
prior to the making of such payment; PROVIDED, that the failure of Agent to give
such notice shall not adversely affect Agent's rights hereunder.  In the event
that at the time such sum is expended the unpaid balance of Advances to Borrower
exceeds or would exceed, with the making of such expenditure, the lesser of the
Maximum Loan Amount or Borrower shall on demand repay the Advances in the amount
by which such expenditure causes such excess.

       2.12   INCREASED COSTS.  In the event a change in any applicable law,
treaty or governmental regulation, in the interpretation or application thereof,
or compliance by Agent or any Lender with any new request or directive (whether
or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other financial,
monetary or other authority which is generally applicable to lenders similarly
situated to Agent or any Lender shall


                                      -23-
<PAGE>

              (a)    subject the Agent or any Lender to any tax of any kind
whatsoever (excluding taxes based on the income of Agent or any Lender) with
respect to this Agreement or change the basis of taxation of payments to Agent
or any Lender of principal, fees, interest or any other amount payable hereunder
or under any Other Documents;

              (b)    impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special
deposit, assessment or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits
in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, any
office of Agent or any Lender, including (without limitation) pursuant to
Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; or

              (c)    impose on Agent or any Lender any other condition with
respect to this Agreement or any Other Documents;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Agent or any
Lender of making, renewing or maintaining its Advances hereunder by an amount
that Agent or any Lender deems to be material or to reduce the amount of any
payment by or for the account of Borrower (whether of principal, interest or
otherwise) in respect of any of the Advances by an amount that Agent or any
Lender deems to be material; then, in any case, Borrower shall promptly pay
Agent or such Lender, upon demand, such additional amount as will compensate
Agent or such Lender for such additional cost or such reduction, as the case may
be, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to increased costs which are
reflected in the Alternate Base Rate.  Agent shall certify the amount of such
additional cost or reduced amount to Borrower, and such certification shall be
prima facie evidence of such additional cost or reduced amount absent manifest
error.

       2.13   CAPITAL ADEQUACY.

              (a)    In the event that, on or after the date of this Agreement,
any adoption of or any change in any applicable law, rule, regulation or
guideline regarding capital adequacy of Agent or any Lender or any change in the
interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or compliance by Agent or any Lender, or any corporation or bank
controlling Agent or any Lender and the office or branch where Agent or any
Lender makes or maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loan with any request or directive
regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on Agent's or any Lender's capital as a consequence
of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Agent or any Lender
would have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into
consideration Agent's and each Lender's policies with respect to capital
adequacy) by an amount deemed by Agent or any Lender to be material, then, from
time to time, Borrower shall pay upon demand


                                      -24-
<PAGE>

to Agent or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
Agent or such Lender for such reduction.  In determining such amount or amounts,
Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging or attribution methods.
The protection of this Section 2.13 shall be available to Agent and Lenders
regardless of any possible contention of invalidity or inapplicability with
respect to the applicable law, regulation or condition.

              (b)    A certificate of Agent setting forth such amount or amounts
as shall be necessary to compensate Agent or any Lender with respect to Section
2.13(a) when delivered to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

              (c)    The obligations of Borrower under this Section 2.13 shall
survive for a period of one (1) year following the termination of this Agreement
and the Other Documents and payment of the Notes and the Advances.

       2.14   BASIS FOR DETERMINING INTEREST RATE INADEQUATE OR UNFAIR.  In the
event that Agent or any Lender shall have determined that:

              (a)    reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the
Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period; or

              (b)    Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant
maturity are not available in the London interbank Eurodollar market, with
respect to an outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan, a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan,
or a proposed conversion of a Domestic Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Rate Loan;
THEN

Agent shall give Borrower prompt written, telephonic or telegraphic notice of
such determination.  If such notice is given, (i) any such requested Eurodollar
Rate Loan shall be made as a Domestic Rate Loan, unless Borrower shall notify
the Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days
prior to the date of such proposed borrowing, that their request for such
borrowing shall be cancelled or made as an unaffected type of Eurodollar Rate
Loan, (ii) any Domestic Rate Loan or Eurodollar Rate Loan which was to have been
converted to an affected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be continued as or
converted into a Domestic Rate Loan, or, if Borrower shall notify Agent, no
later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days prior to the
proposed conversion, shall be maintained as an unaffected type of Eurodollar
Rate Loan, and (iii) any outstanding affected Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be
converted into a Domestic Rate Loan, or, if Borrower shall notify Agent, no
later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days prior to the
last Business Day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such
affected Eurodollar Rate Loan, shall be converted into an unaffected type of
Eurodollar Rate Loan, on the last Business Day of the then current Interest
Period for such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans.  Until such notice has been
withdrawn, Lenders shall have no obligation to make an affected type of
Eurodollar Rate Loan or maintain


                                      -25-
<PAGE>

outstanding affected Eurodollar Rate Loans and Borrower shall not have the right
to convert a Domestic Rate Loan or an unaffected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan
into an affected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan.

       2.15    LETTERS OF CREDIT.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
Agent shall issue or cause the issuance of Standby Letters of Credit ("Letters
of Credit") PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Agent will not be required to issue or cause
to be issued Letters of Credit to the extent that the face amount of such
Letters of Credit would then cause the outstanding Advances (with the requested
Letter of Credit being deemed to be outstanding for purposes of this
calculation) to exceed the lesser of (A) the Maximum Loan Amount or (B) the
Formula Amount The maximum amount of outstanding Letters of Credit hereunder and
under the Affiliate Loan Agreement shall not exceed $10,000,000 in the aggregate
at any time.  All disbursements or payments related to Letters of Credit shall
be deemed to be Revolving Advances and shall bear interest at the Revolving
Interest Rate for Domestic Rate Loans (unless and until converted to a
Eurodollar Rate Loan); and to the extent not drawn upon, Letters of Credit that
have not been drawn upon shall not bear interest.  Letters of Credit shall be
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Application and Agreement
for Standby Letter of Credit attached hereto as EXHIBIT 2.15.

              Upon the declaration by Agent of an Event of Default, Borrower
will cause cash to be deposited and maintained in an account with Agent, as cash
collateral, in an amount equal to the undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of
Credit, and Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent, in its discretion, on
Borrower's behalf and in Borrower's name, to open such an account and to make
and maintain deposits therein, or in an account opened by Borrower, in the
amounts required to be made by Borrower, out of the proceeds of Receivables or
other Collateral or out of any other funds of Borrower coming into Agent's
possession at any time.  Agent will invest such cash collateral (less applicable
reserves) in such short-term money-market items as to which Agent and Borrower
mutually agree and the net return on such investments shall be credited to such
account and constitute additional cash collateral.  Borrower may not withdraw
amounts credited to any such account except upon (a) waiver or cure of the
subject Event of Default, or (b) payment and performance in full of all
Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

       2.16  ISSUANCE OF LETTERS OF CREDIT.

              (a)    Borrower may request Agent to issue or cause the issuance
of a Letter of Credit by delivering to Agent at the Payment Office, Bank's
standard form of Application and Agreement for Standby Letter of Credit (the
"Letter of Credit Application") completed to the satisfaction of Agent; and such
other related certificates, documents and other papers and information as Agent
may reasonably request.


                                      -26-
<PAGE>

              (b)    Each Letter of Credit shall, among other things, (i)
provide for the payment of sight drafts when presented for honor thereunder in
accordance with the terms thereof and when accompanied by the documents
described therein and (ii) have an expiry date not later than twelve months
after such Letter of Credit's date of issuance and in no event later than five
(5) days prior to the last day of the Term.  Each Letter of Credit Application
and each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the Uniform Customs and Practice
for Documentary Credits (1993 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce
Publication No. 500, and any amendments or revisions thereof and, to the extent
not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of New York.

       2.17   REQUIREMENTS FOR ISSUANCE OF LETTERS OF CREDIT.

              (a)    In connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit,
Borrower shall indemnify, save and hold Agent and each Lender harmless from any
loss, cost, expense or liability, including, without limitation, payments made
by Agent or any Lender, and expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by
Agent or any Lender arising out of, or in connection with, any Letter of Credit
to be issued or created. Borrower shall be bound by Agent's, any Lender's or any
issuing bank's regulations and good faith interpretations of any Letter of
Credit issued or created for Borrower's account, although this interpretation
may be different from Borrower's own; and neither Agent, any Lender, the bank
which opened the Letter of Credit, nor any of its correspondents shall be liable
for any error, negligence, or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in
following Borrower's instructions or those contained in any Letter of Credit or
of any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto or in issuing or paying
any Letter of Credit, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

              (b)    Borrower shall authorize and direct any bank which issues a
Letter of Credit to name Borrower as the "Account Party" therein and to deliver
to Agent all instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by
the bank pursuant to the Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon Agent's
instructions and agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection
with the Letter of Credit or the application therefor.

              (c)    Each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably purchased
an undivided participation in Agent's credit support enhancement provided to the
issuing bank of any Letter of Credit and each Revolving Advance made as a
consequence of the issuance of a Letter of Credit and all disbursements
thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender's applicable Commitment Percentage
times the outstanding amount of the Letters of Credit and disbursements
thereunder.  In the event that at the time a disbursement is made the unpaid
balance of Revolving Advances exceeds or would exceed, with the making of such
disbursement, the lesser of the Maximum Loan Amount or the Formula Amount, and
such


                                      -27-
<PAGE>

disbursement is not reimbursed by Borrower within two (2) Business Days, Agent
shall promptly notify each Lender and upon Agent's demand each Lender shall pay
to Agent such Lender's proportionate share of such unreimbursed disbursement
together with such Lender's proportionate share of Agent's unreimbursed costs
and expenses relating to such unreimbursed disbursement.  Upon receipt by Agent
of a repayment from Borrower of any amount disbursed by Agent for which Agent
had already been reimbursed by any of Lenders, Agent shall deliver to each of
the subject Lenders that Lender's pro rata share of such repayment.  Each
Lender's participation commitment shall continue until the last to occur of any
of the following events: (A) Agent ceases to be obligated to issue Letters of
Credit hereunder; (B) no Letter of Credit issued hereunder remains outstanding
and uncancelled or (C) all Persons (other than Borrower) have been fully
reimbursed for all payments made under or relating to Letters of Credit.

       2.18   DEFAULTING LENDER.

              (a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
in the event any Lender (x) has refused (which refusal constitutes a breach by
such Lender of its obligations under this Agreement) to make available its
portion of any Advance or (y) notifies either Agent or Borrower that it does not
intend to make available its portion of any Advance (if the actual refusal would
constitute a breach by such Lender of its obligations under this Agreement)
(each, a "Lender Default"), all rights and obligations hereunder of such Lender
(a "Defaulting Lender") as to which a Lender Default is in effect and of the
other parties hereto shall be modified to the extent of the express provisions
of this Section 2.18 while such Lender Default remains in effect.

              (b)    Advances shall be incurred PRO RATA from Lenders (the "Non-
Defaulting Lenders") which are not Defaulting Lenders based on their respective
Commitment Percentages, and no Commitment Percentage of any Lender or any PRO
rata share of any Advances required to be advanced by any Lender shall be
increased as a result of such Lender Default.  Amounts received in respect of
principal of any type of Advances shall be applied to reduce the applicable
Advances of each Lender PRO RATA based on the aggregate of the outstanding
Advances of that type of all Lenders at the time of such application; provided,
that, such amount shall not be applied to any Advances of a Defaulting Lender at
any time when, and to the extent that, the aggregate amount of Advances of any
Non-Defaulting Lender exceeds such Non-Defaulting Lender's Commitment Percentage
of all Advances then outstanding.

              (c)    A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled, during the
continuance of such Lender Default, to give instructions to Agent or to approve,
disapprove, consent to or vote on any matters relating to this Agreement and the
Other Documents.  All amendments, waivers and other modifications of this
Agreement and the Other Documents may be made without regard to a Defaulting
Lender and, solely for purposes of the definition of "Required


                                      -28-
<PAGE>

Lenders" and Section 14.2(b) hereof, a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to
be a Lender and not to have Advances outstanding.

              (d)    Other than as expressly set forth in this Section 2.18, the
rights and obligations of a Defaulting Lender (including the obligation to
indemnify Agent) and the other parties hereto shall remain unchanged.  Nothing
in this Section 2.18 shall be deemed to release any Defaulting Lender from its
obligations under this Agreement and the Other Documents, shall alter such
obligations, shall operate as a waiver of any default by such Defaulting Lender
hereunder, or shall prejudice any rights which Borrower, Agent or any Lender may
have against any Defaulting Lender as a result of any default by such Defaulting
Lender hereunder.

              (e)    In the event a Defaulting Lender retroactively cures to the
satisfaction of Agent the breach which caused a Lender to become a Defaulting
Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall no longer be a Defaulting Lender and shall
be treated as a Lender under this Agreement.

              (f)    If a Lender Default shall occur, any Lender or Lenders may
commit to make Advances in an amount necessary to meet Borrower's request.  In
such event, the Defaulting Lender's Commitment Percentage of the Advances shall
be terminated and its Commitment Percentage of the Advances outstanding (prior
to such additional Advances being made by the other Lender or Lenders) shall be
repaid by Borrower provided Borrower shall not be obligated to pay an early
termination fee to such Defaulting Lender.

       2.19   WITHHOLDING TAXES.

              (a)    All sums payable by Borrower under this Agreement shall be
paid in full without set off or counterclaim and free and clear of and without
any deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future
withholding taxes.

              (b)    If Borrower shall be required by law to make any such
deduction or withholding from any payment for the account of Agent, the Lenders
or any of them, then Borrower will ensure that such deduction or withholding
does not exceed the minimum legal liability therefor and will forthwith pay to
Agent for the account of Agent, the Lenders or any of them such additional
amount as will result in the receipt by Agent, the Lenders or any of them of the
full amount which would otherwise have been receivable hereunder had no such
deduction or withholding been made.

              (c)    If Borrower pays any additional amount referred to in sub-
clause (b) above ("tax payment") to Agent or any Lender pursuant to the clause
and Agent or such Lender, in its absolute discretion, effectively obtains a
refund of that tax payment ("tax credit") which it is able to identify as being
attributable to that tax payment, then if it can, in its absolute


                                      -29-
<PAGE>

discretion, do so without prejudicing the retention of that tax credit, Agent or
such Lender may reimburse Borrower such proportion of that tax credit as it
determines will leave it (after such reimbursement) in no better or worse
position than if that tax payment had not been required.  Agent or such Lender
shall have complete discretion as to (a) whether to claim any tax credit (and,
if so, the extent, order and manner of such claim) and (b) whether any amount is
due from it hereunder (and, if so, the amount and time of payment).  Neither
Agent nor any Lender shall be obliged to disclose any information regarding its
tax affairs and computations.


       III.  INTEREST AND FEES.

       3.1    INTEREST.  Interest on Revolving Advances shall be payable in
arrears on the last day of each month with respect to Domestic Rate Loans and,
with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan, at the end of the Interest Period
relating to such Eurodollar Rate Loan.  Interest charges for Domestic Rate Loans
shall be computed on the actual average of daily Revolving Advances outstanding
during the month (the "Monthly Advances") at a rate per annum equal to the
applicable Revolving Interest Rate.  Whenever, subsequent to the date of this
Agreement, the Alternate Base Rate is increased or decreased, the Revolving
Interest Rate applicable to Domestic Rate Loans shall be similarly changed
without notice or demand of any kind by an amount equal to the amount of such
change in the Alternate Base Rate during the time such change or changes remain
in effect.  Upon and after the declaration by Agent of an Event of Default, and
during the continuation thereof, the Revolving Advances shall bear interest at
the Revolving Interest Rate plus two (2%) percent per annum and fees on
outstanding Letters of Credit shall be calculated at three and one-half (3.50%)
percent (the "Default Rate").

       3.2    INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

       3.3    UNUSED FACILITY FEE.  On the first day of each calendar month
commencing on the first day of the first month following the Effective Date,
Borrower shall pay to Agent an unused facility fee initially, a rate per annum
equal to .3% of the average daily unused portion of the Maximum Loan Amount;
PROVIDED, however, the unused facility fee shall be amended as provided below,
commencing on the later to occur of (i) the last day of the third fiscal quarter
after the Effective Date and (ii) March 31, 1997 and at the end of each fiscal
quarter thereafter based upon the ratio of Funded Debt to EBITDA as reflected in
the financial statements (x) delivered to Agent pursuant to Section 9.7 of the
Affiliate Loan Agreement with respect to the first three (3) fiscal quarters of
any fiscal year and (y) delivered to Agent pursuant to Section 9.8 of the
Affiliate Loan Agreement with respect to the last fiscal quarter of any fiscal
year:


                                      -30-
<PAGE>


Ratio of Indebtedness to EBITDA                             Unused Facility Fee
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
less than 3.0 to 1.0                                               0.200%
less than 3.50 and equal to or greater than 3.0 to 1.0             0.200%
less than 4.50 and equal to or greater than 3.50 to 1.0            0.300%
equal to or greater than 4.50 to 1.0                               0.375%

       The foregoing ratio shall be determined for Borrowers on a consolidated
basis.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the unused facility fee shall not be
reduced at such time as an Event of Default or Incipient Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing but shall be reduced (if applicable) when such Event
of Default or Incipient Event of Default has been cured or waived.

       3.4    LETTER OF CREDIT.

       Borrower shall pay Agent (i) for the pro-rata benefit of Lenders for
issuing or causing the issuance of a Letter of Credit, a fee computed at a rate
per annum of one and one-half percent (1-1/2%) on the original face amount
thereof ("Letter of Credit Fees"), (ii) Bank's other customary charges payable
in connection with Letters of Credit, as in effect from time to time (which
charges shall be furnished to Borrower by Agent upon request).  Such fees and
charges shall be payable on the opening of each Letter of Credit, and thereafter
on the last day of each month.  Any such charge in effect at the time of a
particular transaction shall be the charge for that transaction, notwithstanding
any subsequent change in Bank's prevailing charges for that type of transaction.
All Letter of Credit Fees payable hereunder shall be deemed earned in full on
the date when the same are due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to
rebate or proration upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

       3.5    COMPUTATION OF INTEREST AND FEES.  Interest and fees hereunder
shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number
of days elapsed; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, Advances bearing interest based on the Prime
Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365(6) days and for the actual
number of days elapsed.  If any payment to be made hereunder becomes due and
payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall then be
payable in respect of the period of such extension.

       3.6    MAXIMUM CHARGES.  In no event whatsoever shall interest and other
charges charged hereunder exceed the highest


                                      -31-
<PAGE>

rate permissible under law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a
final determination, deem applicable hereto.  In the event that a court
determines that Agent or any Lender has received interest and other charges
hereunder in excess of the highest lawful rate applicable hereto, such excess
interest shall be first applied to any unpaid principal balance owed by
Borrower, and if the then remaining excess interest is greater than the
previously unpaid principal balance, Lenders shall promptly refund such excess
amount to Borrower and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide
for such permissible rate.

        IV.  COLLATERAL:  GENERAL TERMS

       4.1    ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND GRANT OF SECURITY INTERESTS.

              (a) Borrower hereby pledges and assigns to Agent for the ratable
benefit of the Lenders and grants to Agent for the ratable benefit of the
Lenders a continuing security interest in all of the Collateral and
acknowledges, confirms and agrees that Agent has and shall continue to have for
the ratable benefit of the Lenders a continuing security interest and fixed and
floating charges in, on or to, all the Collateral now or heretofore granted,
whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising and wheresoever
located.  Borrower shall mark its books and records as may be necessary or
appropriate to evidence, protect and perfect Agent's security interest and shall
cause its financial statements to reflect such security interest.

              (b) The liens and security interests of Agent for the ratable
benefit of Lenders in the Collateral shall be deemed to be continuously
perfected from the earliest date of the granting of such liens and security
interests, whether hereunder, under the Other Documents, or under the Existing
Loan Agreement.

       4.2    PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTEREST.  Borrower shall take all action
that may be necessary or desirable, or that Agent may reasonably request, so as
at all times to maintain the validity, perfection, enforceability and first
priority of Agent's security interest in the Collateral or to enable Agent to
protect, exercise or enforce its rights hereunder and in the Collateral,
including, but not limited to (i) immediately discharging all Liens on
Collateral other than Permitted Encumbrances, (ii) obtaining landlords' or
mortgagees' lien waivers with respect to any premises leased or purchased by
Borrower after the Initial Closing Date, (iii) delivering to Agent, endorsed or
accompanied by such instruments of assignment as Agent may reasonably specify,
and stamping or marking, in such manner as Agent may reasonably specify, any and
all chattel paper, instruments, letters of credits and advices thereof and
documents evidencing or forming a part of the Collateral, (iv) entering into
custodial arrangements satisfactory to Agent, and (v) executing and delivering
financing statements, instruments of pledge, mortgages, notices and assignments,
in each case in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, relating to the
creation, validity, perfection, maintenance


                                      -32-
<PAGE>

or continuation of Agent's security interest in the Collateral under the Uniform
Commercial Code or other applicable or comparable law.  All reasonable and
necessary charges, expenses and fees that Agent may incur in doing any of the
foregoing in the good faith exercise of its discretion, and any local taxes
relating thereto, shall be charged to Borrower's account and added to the
Obligations, or, at Agent's option, shall be paid to Agent immediately upon
demand.

       4.3    DISPOSITION OF COLLATERAL.   Borrower will safeguard and protect
all Collateral for Agent's general account and make no disposition thereof
whether by sale, lease or otherwise without Agent's prior written consent which
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that Borrower may, without
Agent's consent, sell Inventory in the ordinary course of business.

       4.4    PRESERVATION OF COLLATERAL.   Agent shall have, and is hereby
granted, a right of ingress and egress to the places where the Collateral is
located, and may proceed over and through any of Borrower's owned or leased
property   In addition to the rights and remedies set forth in Section 11.1
hereof, Agent may at any time following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default take such steps as Agent deems necessary to
protect its security interest in and to preserve the Collateral including (a)
the hiring of such security guards or the placing of other security protection
measures as Agent may deem appropriate; (b) employing and maintaining at any of
Borrower's premises a custodian who shall have full authority to do all acts
necessary to protect Agent's security interest in the Collateral; (c) leasing
warehouse facilities to which Agent may move all or part of the Collateral; and
(d) subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, using any of
Borrower's owned or leased lifts, hoists, trucks and other facilities or
equipment for handling or removing the Collateral.  Borrower shall cooperate
fully with all of Agent's efforts to preserve the Collateral and will take such
actions to preserve the Collateral as Agent may direct.  All of Agent's
reasonable and necessary expenses of preserving the Collateral, including any
expenses relating to the bonding of a custodian, shall be charged to Borrower's
account as an Advance and added to the Obligations.

       4.5    OWNERSHIP OF COLLATERAL.  With respect to the Collateral, at the
time the Collateral becomes subject to the security interest granted pursuant to
or Section 4.1 hereof, as the case may be:  (a) Borrower shall be the sole owner
of and fully authorized and able to transfer, pledge and/or grant a first
security interest in each and every item of its respective Collateral to Agent;
and, except for Permitted Encumbrances, the Collateral shall be free and clear
of all Liens, Claims, Charges and encumbrances whatsoever; (b) each document and
agreement executed by Borrower or delivered to Agent or any Lender on behalf of
Borrower in connection with this Agreement shall be true and correct in all
material respects as of the date thereof;


                                      -33-
<PAGE>

(c) all signatures and endorsements of Borrower that appear on such documents
and agreements shall be genuine and Borrower shall have full capacity to execute
same; and (d) Borrower's Inventory shall be located as set forth on EXHIBIT 4.5
and shall not be removed from such location(s) (except with respect to the sale
of Inventory in the ordinary course of business) unless Agent shall have
received thirty (30) days' prior written notice of such removal.

       4.6    DEFENSE OF AGENT'S INTERESTS.  Until (a) payment and performance
in full of all of the Obligations and (b) termination of this Agreement, Agent's
interests in the Collateral shall continue in full force and effect.  During
such period none of Borrower shall, without Agent's prior written consent,
pledge, sell (except Inventory in the ordinary course of business), assign,
transfer, create or suffer to exist a security interest in, Lien, Claim or
Charge upon or encumber or allow or suffer to be encumbered in any way except
for Permitted Encumbrances, any part of the Collateral.  Except as respects
Permitted Encumbrances, Borrower shall defend Agent's interests in the
Collateral against any and all Persons whatsoever.  At any time following the
declaration and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, Agent
shall have the right to take possession of the indicia of the Collateral and the
Collateral using all legally permitted methods in whatever physical form
contained, including without limitation:  labels, stationery, documents,
instruments and advertising materials.  If Agent exercises this right to take
possession of the Collateral, Borrower shall, upon demand, assemble it in the
best manner possible and make it available to Agent at a place reasonably
convenient to Agent; PROVIDED, that any request by Agent shall be made in a
commercially reasonable manner.  In addition, with respect to all Collateral,
Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies set forth
herein and further provided by the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable
law.  Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, Borrower shall, and Agent may, at its option, instruct all suppliers,
carriers, forwarders, warehouses or others receiving or holding cash, checks,
Inventory, documents or instruments in which Agent holds a security interest to
deliver same to Agent and/or subject to Agent's order.  If any of the foregoing
shall, at any time, come into Borrower's possession, they, and each of them,
shall be held by Borrower in trust as Agent's trustee, and Borrower will
immediately deliver them to Agent in their original form together with any
necessary endorsement.

       4.7    BOOKS AND RECORDS.  Borrower (a) shall keep proper books of record
and account in which full, true and correct entries will be made of all dealings
or transactions of or in relation to its business and affairs; (b) set up on its
books accruals with respect to all taxes, assessments, charges, levies and
claims; and (c) on a reasonably current basis set up on its books, from its
earnings, allowances against doubtful Receivables, advances and investments and
all other proper accruals (including


                                      -34-
<PAGE>

without limitation by reason of enumeration, accruals for premiums, if any, due
on required payments and accruals for depreciation, obsolescence, or
amortization of properties), which should be set aside from such earnings in
connection with its business.  All determinations pursuant to this subsection
shall be made in accordance with, or as required by, GAAP consistently applied.

       4.8    FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.  Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and
directs all accountants and auditors employed by Borrower at any time during the
term of this Agreement to exhibit and deliver to Agent and each Lender copies of
any of Borrower's financial statements, trial balances or other accounting
records including work papers of any sort in the accountant's or auditor's
possession, and to disclose to Agent and each Lender any information such
accountants may have concerning Borrower's financial status and business
operations.  Borrower hereby authorizes all federal, state and municipal
authorities to furnish to Agent and each Lender copies of reports or
examinations relating to Borrower, whether made by Borrower or otherwise;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Agent and each Lender will attempt to obtain such
information or materials directly from Borrower prior to obtaining such
information or materials from such accountants or governmental authorities.  Any
failure by the accountants or governmental authorities to comply with
information requests of Agent or any Lender shall not be deemed an Event of
Default hereunder unless such failure to comply is a result of instructions by
Borrower which are contrary to the provisions of this Section 4.8.  Agent and
each Lender shall exercise its rights hereunder in a commercially reasonable
manner.

       4.9    COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.  Borrower shall in all material respects
comply with all acts, rules, regulations and orders of any legislative,
administrative or judicial body or official applicable to the Collateral or any
part thereof or to the operation of Borrower's business the non-compliance with
which would have a material adverse effect on the Collateral, or the operations,
business or condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower.  Borrower may,
however, contest or dispute any acts, rules, regulations, orders and directions
of those bodies or officials in any reasonable manner, provided that any related
Lien or Charge which is or might be asserted with respect thereto (if applicable
to the Collateral) is inchoate or stayed and sufficient reserves are established
to the reasonable satisfaction of Agent so as not to derogate from or against
and so as to protect, Agent's lien on or security interest in the Collateral.

       4.10   INSPECTION OF PREMISES.  At all reasonable times Agent or any
Lender shall have full access to and the right to audit, check, inspect and make
abstracts and copies from Borrower's books, records, audits, correspondence and
all other papers relating to the Collateral and the operation of Borrower's
business.  Agent or any Lender may enter upon any of Borrower's premises at any
time during business hours and at any other reasonable time, and from time to
time, for the purpose of


                                      -35-
<PAGE>

inspecting the Collateral and any and all records pertaining thereto and the
operation of Borrower's business.

       4.11   INSURANCE.  Borrower shall bear the full risk from any loss of any
nature whatsoever with respect to the Collateral.  At its own cost and expense
in amounts and with carriers acceptable to Agent (which acceptance shall not be
unreasonably withheld), Borrower shall (a) keep all its insurable properties and
properties in which Borrower has an interest insured against the hazards of
fire, flood, sprinkler leakage, those hazards covered by extended coverage
insurance and such other hazards, including, without limitation, business
interruption insurance and for such amounts, as is customary in the case of
companies engaged in a business similar to Borrower provided that such insurance
shall be for at least [$____________]; (b) maintain a bond in such amounts as is
customary in the case of companies engaged in a business similar to Borrower
insuring against larceny, embezzlement or other criminal misappropriation of
insured's officers and employees who may either singly or jointly with others at
any time have access to the assets or funds of Borrower either directly or
through authority to draw upon such funds or to direct generally the disposition
of such assets; (c) maintain product liability insurance against claims for
personal injury, death or property damage suffered by others in an amount not
less than the maximum amount which Borrower is able to obtain; PROVIDED, that
such insurance shall not be for an amount less than $______________ or more than
$____________; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that Borrower's inability to obtain
insurance in an amount equal to $____________ for Borrower is due to market
conditions and is not a result of Borrower's actions or omissions; (d) maintain
all such worker's compensation or similar insurance as may be required under the
laws of each state or jurisdiction in which Borrower is engaged in business; (e)
furnish Agent with (i) copies of all policies and evidence of the maintenance of
such policies by the renewal thereof at least thirty (30) days before any
expiration date, and (ii) appropriate loss payable endorsements in form and
substance satisfactory to Agent, naming Agent as loss payee as its interests may
appear with respect to all insurance coverage referred to in clauses (a) and (b)
above and as an additional insured with respect to the insurance coverage
referred to in clauses (c) and (d) above, and in either case providing (A) that
all proceeds thereunder in respect of the Collateral shall be payable to Agent,
(B) that no such insurance shall be affected by any act or neglect of the
insured or owner of the property described in such policy, and (C) that such
policy and loss payable clauses may not be cancelled, amended or terminated
unless at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice is given to Agent.  In
the event of any loss thereunder, the carriers named therein hereby are directed
by Agent and Borrower to make payment for such loss to Agent and not to Borrower
and Agent jointly.  If any insurance losses are paid by check, draft or other
instrument payable to Borrower and Agent jointly, Agent may endorse Borrower's
name thereon and do such other things as Agent may deem advisable to reduce the
same to cash.  All loss recoveries received


                                      -36-
<PAGE>

by Agent upon any such insurance may be applied to the Obligations, in such
order as Agent in its sole discretion shall determine; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, Agent
shall remit to Borrower any loss recoveries received by Agent with respect to
Borrower's insurance coverage referred to in clauses (c) and (d) above which are
paid to Agent other than in its capacity as an additional insured under said
policies.  Any surplus shall be paid by Agent to Borrower or applied as may be
otherwise required by law.  Any deficiency in the amount of insurance proceeds
received when compared to the value of the Collateral the loss of which gave
rise to such insurance proceeds shall be paid by Borrower to Agent, on demand.
Anything hereinabove to the contrary notwithstanding (i) Agent shall permit
Borrower to adjust and compromise claims under insurance coverage provided that
no Event of Default shall have been declared and be continuing and (ii) Agent
shall promptly remit to Borrower insurance proceeds received by Agent during any
calendar year under insurance policies procured and maintained by Borrower which
insure Borrower's insurable Collateral to the extent such insurance proceeds do
not exceed $__________ per occurrence provided, (x) no Event of Default shall
have been declared and be continuing, (y) Borrower shall use such insurance
proceeds to repair, replace or restore the insurable Collateral which was the
subject of the insurable loss and for no other purpose and (z) Agent shall have
obtained a perfected security interest in such repaired, replaced or restored
Collateral.  In the event the amount of insurance proceeds received by Agent for
any occurrence as aforesaid exceeds $_________ and no Event of Default shall
have been declared and be continuing, Agent shall place such proceeds in an
interest-bearing account and such proceeds shall be remitted to Borrower from
time to time to the extent (a) Borrower shall submit invoices to Agent with
respect to the repair, replacement or restoration of the insurable Collateral
which was the subject of the insurable loss, (b) Borrower shall use such
insurance proceeds to repair, replace or restore the insurable Collateral which
was the subject of the insurable loss and for no other purpose, (c) the repair,
replacement or restoration of the subject Collateral must be capable of being
accomplished during the period of time in which Borrower's business interruption
insurance is in effect and (d) Borrower shall have delivered to Agent a revised
Business Plan in form and substance satisfactory to Agent evidencing Borrower's
ability to continue to operate its business without the occurrence of any other
Event of Default hereunder.  Following the declaration and during the
continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, Agent shall not be obligated to
remit the insurance proceeds to Borrower.

       4.12   FAILURE TO MAINTAIN INSURANCE.  If Borrower fails to obtain
insurance as hereinabove provided, or to keep the same in force, Agent may
obtain such insurance and pay the premium therefor for Borrower's account, and
charge Borrower's account therefor and such expenses so paid shall be charged to
Borrower's account as an Advance and added to the Obligations.


                                      -37-
<PAGE>

       4.13   PAYMENT OF TAXES.  Borrower will pay, before becoming delinquent,
all taxes, assessments and other Charges or Claims lawfully levied or assessed
upon Borrower or any of the Collateral including, without limitation, real and
personal property taxes, assessments and charges and all franchise, income,
employment, social security benefits, withholding, and sales taxes. If any tax
by any governmental authority is or may be imposed on Agent or any Lender or, as
a result of any transaction between Borrower, any Agent and Lender, Agent or any
Lender may be required to withhold or pay such a tax or, if any taxes,
assessments, or other Charges remain unpaid after the delinquency date or if any
Claim shall be made which, in Agent's opinion, may possibly create a valid Lien,
Charge or Claim on the Collateral, Agent may, concurrently with giving notice to
Borrower, pay the taxes, assessments, Liens, Charges or Claims and Borrower
hereby indemnifies and holds Agent harmless in respect thereof except for gross
(not mere) negligence or willful misconduct.  The amount of any payment by Agent
or any Lender under this Section 4.13 shall be charged to Borrower's account as
an Advance and added to the Obligations and, until Borrower shall furnish Agent
with an indemnity therefor (or supply Agent with evidence satisfactory to Agent
that due provision for the payment thereof has been made), Agent may hold
without interest any balance standing to Borrower's credit and Agent shall
retain its security interest in any and all Collateral held by Agent.

       4.14   PAYMENT OF LEASEHOLD OBLIGATIONS.  Borrower shall at all times
pay, before becoming delinquent, its rental obligations under all leases under
which it is a tenant, and shall otherwise comply, in all material respects, with
all other terms of such leases and keep them in full force and effect and, at
Agent's request, will provide evidence of having done so.

       4.15   RECEIVABLES.

              (a)    NATURE OF RECEIVABLES.  Each of the Receivables shall be a
bona fide and valid account representing a bona fide obligation of the Customer
therein named, for a fixed sum as set forth in the invoice relating thereto
(provided immaterial or unintentional invoice errors shall not be deemed to be a
breach hereof and Eligible Unbilled Receivables do not have any invoices
relating thereto) with respect to an absolute sale or lease and delivery of
goods upon stated terms of Borrower, or work, labor or services theretofore
rendered by Borrower and as of the date each Receivable is created.  Same shall
be due and owing in accordance with Borrower's standard terms of sale without
dispute, setoff or counterclaim except, as may be stated on the accounts
receivable schedules delivered by Borrower to Agent.

              (b)    SOLVENCY OF CUSTOMERS.  To the best of Borrower's
knowledge, each Customer, as of the date each Receivable is created, is and will
be solvent and able to pay all Receivables on which the Customer is obligated in
full when due or with respect to such Customers of Borrower who are not solvent
Borrower has


                                      -38-
<PAGE>

set up on its books and in its financial records bad debt reserves adequate to
cover such Receivables or has collateral from such Customer sufficient to cover
such Receivables.

              (c)    LOCATIONS OF BORROWER.  Borrower's chief executive office
is located at ________________________________.   Until written notice is given
to Agent by Borrower of any other office at which it keeps its records
pertaining to Receivables, all such records shall be kept at such executive
office.

              (d)    COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLES.  Until Borrower's authority to
do so is terminated by Agent (which notice Agent may give at any time following
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), Borrower
will, at Borrower's sole cost and expense, but on Agent's behalf and for the
account of Agent, collect as Agent's property and in trust for Agent all amounts
received on Receivables, and shall not commingle such collections with
Borrower's funds or use the same except to pay Obligations.  Borrower shall,
upon request, deliver to Agent in original form and on the date of receipt
thereof, all checks, drafts, notes, money orders, acceptances, cash and other
evidences of Indebtedness.

              (e)    NOTIFICATION OF ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES. At any time
following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
Agent shall have the right to send notice of the assignment of, and Agent's
security interest in, the Receivables to any and all Customers or any third
party holding or otherwise concerned with any of the Collateral.  Thereafter,
Agent shall have the sole right to collect the Receivables, take possession of
the Collateral, or both.  Agent's actual collection expenses, including, but not
limited to, stationery and postage, telephone and telegraph, secretarial and
clerical expenses and the salaries of any collection personnel used for
collection, may be charged to Borrower's account and added to the Obligations.

              (f)    POWER OF AGENT TO ACT ON BORROWER'S BEHALF.  Agent shall
have the right to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver in the name of Agent
or Borrower any and all checks, drafts and other instruments for the payment of
money relating to the Receivables, and Borrower hereby waives notice of
presentment, protest and non-payment of any instrument so endorsed.  Borrower
hereby constitutes Agent or its designee as Borrower's attorney with power (i)
to endorse Borrower's name upon any notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money
orders or other evidences of payment or Collateral; (ii) to sign Borrower's name
on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any of the Receivables, drafts
against Customers, assignments and verifications of Receivables; (iii) to send
verifications of Receivables to any Customer; (iv) to sign Borrower's name on
all financing  statements or any other documents or instruments deemed necessary
or appropriate by Agent to preserve, protect, or perfect Agent's interest in the
Collateral and to file same; (v) following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, to


                                      -39-
<PAGE>

demand payment of the Receivables; (vi) following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, to enforce payment of the Receivables by
legal proceedings or otherwise: (vii) following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise all of Borrower's rights and
remedies with respect to the collection of the Receivables and any other
Collateral; (viii) following the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, to settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew the
Receivables; (ix) following the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, to settle, adjust or compromise any legal proceedings brought
to collect Receivables; (x) to prepare, file and sign Borrower's name on a proof
of claim in bankruptcy or similar document against any Customer if Borrower has
failed to do so no later than thirty (30) days prior to any bar date; (xi) to
prepare, file and sign Borrower's name on any notice of Lien, assignment or
satisfaction of Lien or similar document in connection with the Receivables if
Borrower has failed to do so no later than thirty (30) days prior to the
expiration of any applicable time period; and (xii) to do all other acts and
things necessary to carry out this Agreement. All acts of said attorney or
designee are hereby ratified and approved, and said attorney or designee shall
not be liable for any acts of omission or commission nor for any error of
judgment or mistake of fact or of law, unless done willfully and maliciously or
by gross (not mere) negligence; this power being coupled with an interest is
irrevocable while any of the Obligations remain unpaid.  Agent shall have the
right at any time following the declaration and during the continuance of an
Event of Default to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to
Borrower to such address as Agent may designate.

              (g)    NO LIABILITY.  Neither Agent nor any Lender shall, under
any circumstances or in any event whatsoever, have any liability for any error
or omission or delay of any kind occurring in the settlement, collection or
payment of any of the Receivables or any instrument received in payment thereof,
or for any damage resulting therefrom except for its own willful misconduct or
gross (not mere) negligence.  Following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may, without notice or consent from
Borrower, sue upon or otherwise collect, extend the time of payment of,
compromise or settle for cash, credit or upon any terms any of the Receivables
or any other securities, instruments or insurance applicable thereto and/or
release any obligor thereof.  Agent is authorized and empowered to accept,
following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
return of the goods represented by any of the Receivables, without notice to or
consent by Borrower, all without discharging or in any way affecting Borrower's
liability hereunder.

              (h)    ESTABLISHMENT OF AN AGENCY ACCOUNT.  All proceeds of
Collateral shall, at the direction of Agent, be deposited by Borrower into a
separate agency account (collectively, "Agency Accounts") as Agent may require
pursuant to


                                      -40-
<PAGE>

an arrangement with such bank(s) (the "Depository Banks") as may be selected by
Borrower and be acceptable to Agent.  The Depository Bank shall receive, in
writing, irrevocable instructions directing the Depository Bank to transfer such
funds so deposited to Agent by wire transfer to specified account(s) of Agent.
All funds deposited in the Agency Accounts shall immediately become the property
of Agent and Borrower shall obtain the agreement by the Depository Bank to waive
any offset rights against the funds so deposited.  Neither Agent nor any Lender
assumes any responsibility for such Agency Account arrangements, including
without limitation, any claim of accord and satisfaction or release with respect
to deposits accepted by any bank thereunder.  Borrower will maintain an
operating account with a Depository Bank.  In the event that any check(s)
deposited in the Agency Accounts is returned unpaid, the amount thereof shall be
charged by such Depository Bank to such operating account and, to the extent
that funds are not available in the operating account, Borrower shall be solely
responsible for reimbursing the Depository Bank.  Borrower shall issue, to the
respective Depository Bank, an irrevocable letter of instruction directing such
Depository Bank that, to the extent that Borrower shall receive wire transfers
representing proceeds of Collateral in such operating account, such funds shall
be automatically and immediately transferred to the applicable Agency Account.

       4.16   INVENTORY.  All Inventory produced by Borrower in the United
States has been, and will be produced, in accordance with the Federal Fair Labor
Standards Act of 1938, as amended, and all rules, regulations and orders
thereunder.

       4.17    EXCULPATION OF LIABILITY.  Except as set forth in Section 4.15(f)
hereof, nothing herein contained shall be construed to constitute Agent or any
Lender as Borrower's agent for any purpose whatsoever, nor shall Agent or any
Lender be responsible or  liable for any shortage, discrepancy, damage, loss or
destruction of any part of the Collateral wherever the same may be located and
regardless of the cause thereof except for its own gross (not mere) negligence
or willful misconduct.  Neither Agent nor any Lender does by anything herein or
in any Other Document or in any assignment or otherwise, assume any of
Borrower's obligations under any contract or agreement assigned to Agent or such
Lender, and neither Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible in any way for the
performance by Borrower of any of the terms and conditions thereof except for
its own willful misconduct or gross (not mere) negligence.

       4.18   ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS.

              (a)    Borrower will maintain its real property in substantial
compliance with all Environmental Laws and it will not place or suffer or permit
to be placed any Hazardous Substances on the real property except as not
prohibited by applicable law or appropriate governmental authorities and which
are necessary for


                                      -41-
<PAGE>

the operation of the commercial business of Borrower or of its tenants.

              (b)    Borrower will maintain its current system to assure and
monitor continued compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws which system
includes periodic reviews of such compliance.

              (c)    Borrower will dispose of any and all Hazardous Waste
generated at the real property only at facilities and with carriers that
maintain valid permits under any applicable Environmental Laws.  Borrower shall
use its best efforts to obtain certificates of disposal, such as hazardous waste
manifest receipts, from all treatment, transport, storage or disposal facilities
or operators employed by Borrower in connection with the transport or disposal
of any Hazardous Waste generated at the real property.

              (d)    In the event Borrower comes into possession of, gives or
receives notice of any Release or threat of Release of a reportable quantity of
any Hazardous Substances at the real property or any other site used by Borrower
to dispose of Hazardous Substances (any such event being hereinafter referred to
as a "Hazardous Discharge") or receives any notice of violation, request for
information or notification that it is potentially responsible for investigation
or cleanup of environmental conditions at the real property (or any other site
used by Borrower to dispose of Hazardous Substances), demand letter or
complaint, order, citation, or other written notice with regard to any Hazardous
Discharge or violation of Environmental Laws affecting the real property (or any
other site used by Borrower to dispose of Hazardous Substances) or Borrower's
interest therein (any of the foregoing is referred to herein as an
"Environmental Complaint") from any local, state or federal authority or agency
with enforcement rights, including any state agency responsible in whole or in
part for environmental matters in the state in which the real property is
located or the United States Environmental Protection Agency (any such person or
entity hereinafter the "Authority"), then such  Borrower shall, within five (5)
Business Days, give written notice of same to Agent detailing non-privileged and
non-confidential facts and circumstances of which Borrower is aware giving rise
to the Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint and shall forward copies
of correspondence between Borrower and the Authority regarding such claims to
Agent until the claim is settled.  Borrower shall promptly forward to Agent
copies of all documents and reports concerning a Hazardous Discharge at the real
property that Borrower is required to file under any Environmental Laws.  Such
information is to be provided to allow Agent to protect its security interest in
the collateral assignment of Borrower's lease interest in the real property and
is not intended to create nor shall it create any obligation upon Agent or any
Lender with respect thereto.


                                      -42-
<PAGE>

              (e)    Borrower shall respond promptly to any Hazardous Discharge
and within thirty (30) days of receipt of any Environmental Complaint and take
all necessary action in order to comply with all applicable Environmental Laws
and to avoid subjecting the Collateral or real property to any Lien relating to
a failure to comply with Environmental Laws; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if such
compliance cannot reasonably be completed within such thirty (30) day period,
Borrower shall commence such necessary action within such thirty (30) day period
and shall thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceed to fully comply in all
respects and in a timely fashion with all Environmental Laws.  If Borrower shall
fail to respond promptly to any Hazardous Discharge or shall fail to respond
within a reasonable period of time to any Environmental Complaint or Borrower
shall fail to diligently and expeditiously proceed to comply in a timely fashion
with any of the requirements of any Environmental Laws, Agent, on behalf of
Lenders, may, in its sole and absolute discretion, but without the obligation to
do so, for the sole purpose of protecting Agent's interest in Collateral:  (A)
give such notices or (B) enter onto the real property (or authorize third
parties to enter onto the real property) and take such actions as Agent (or such
third parties as directed by Agent) deem reasonably necessary or advisable, to
clean up, remove, mitigate or otherwise deal with any such Hazardous Discharge
or Environmental Complaint in a commercially reasonable manner.  All reasonable
costs and expenses incurred by Agent or any Lender (or such third parties) in
the exercise of any such rights, including any sums paid in connection with any
judicial or administrative investigation or proceedings, reasonable counsel and
consultant fees and expenses, investigation and laboratory fees and expenses,
and fines and penalties, together with interest thereon from the date expended
at the Default Rate shall be paid upon demand by Borrower, and until paid shall
be charged to Borrower's account as an Advance and added to the Obligations
secured by the Liens created by the terms of this Agreement.  Borrower shall
execute and deliver, promptly upon request, such instruments as Agent may
reasonably deem useful or necessary to permit Agent to take any such action, and
such additional notes and mortgages, as Agent may require to secure all sums so
advanced or paid by Agent or Lenders.

              (f)    Borrower shall defend and indemnify Agent and Lenders and
hold Agent and Lenders harmless from and against all loss, liability, damage and
expense, claims, costs, fines and penalties, including reasonable attorney's
fees, suffered or incurred by Agent or Lenders under or on account of any
Environmental Laws in relation to Borrower or its Collateral or real property,
including, without limitation, the assertion of any lien thereunder, with
respect to any Hazardous Discharge, the presence of any Hazardous Substances
affecting the real property, whether or not the same originates or emanates from
the real property or any contiguous real estate, except to the extent such loss,
liability or damage is directly related to Agent or Lenders (i) placing any
Hazardous Substance on the real property, (ii) failing to properly dispose of
Hazardous Waste, (iii) causing a


                                      -43-
<PAGE>

Hazardous Discharge on the real property or (iv) failing to act in a
commercially reasonable manner.  Agent may, in the event it is dissatisfied, in
the exercise of its reasonable judgment, with counsel employed by Borrower,
employ counsel separate from counsel employed by Borrower in any such action and
participate in the defense thereof, at the expense of Borrower.  Borrower's
obligations and the indemnifications hereunder shall survive the termination of
this Agreement.

              (g)    If a Lien is filed against any real property by any
governmental authority resulting from the need to expend or the actual expending
of monies arising from an action or omission, whether intentional or
unintentional, of Borrower for which Borrower is responsible, resulting in the
releasing, spilling, leaking, leaching, pumping, emitting, pouring, emptying or
dumping of any Hazardous Substance into the waters or onto land located within
or without the state where the real property is located, then within thirty (30)
days from the date Borrower is first given notice that such Lien has been filed
against the real property (or within such shorter period of time as may be
specified by Agent if such governmental authority has commenced steps to cause
the real property to be sold pursuant to such Lien) either (i) pay the claim and
remove the Lien, or (ii) furnish a cash deposit, bond, or such other security
with respect thereto as is satisfactory in all respects to Agent and is
sufficient to effect a complete discharge of such Lien on the real property.  If
Borrower fails to do either (i) or (ii) above in a timely manner, Agent and
Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to do so and all such
costs or expenses incurred by Agent and Lenders in connection therewith,
together with interest thereon from the date expended at the Default Rate shall
be paid upon demand by Borrower and until paid shall be added to the Obligations
secured by the Liens created by the terms of this Agreement.

       4.19   GREENWICH.  All expenses of Agent, the Lenders or any Receiver (as
defined in the U.K. Security Document) under the U.K. Security Document shall be
charged to Borrower's account as Revolving Advance and added to the Obligations
of, at Agent's option, paid by Borrower upon written demand therefor.

       4.20   INCONSISTENT PROVISIONS.   If and to the extent that any
provisions of this Agreement with respect to Collateral or certain obligations
of Borrower conflict or are otherwise inconsistent with any provisions of the
U.K. Security Document, the provisions of the U.K. Security Document shall
control.

Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all other rights and remedies
provided for herein, under the Uniform Commercial Code and at law or equity
generally, including, without limitation, the right to foreclose the security
interests granted herein and to realize upon any Collateral by any available
judicial procedure and/or to take possession of and sell any or all of the
Collateral with judicial process and, to appoint


                                      -64-
<PAGE>

a Receiver (as defined in the U.K. Security Document) to take possession of and
sell any or all of the Collateral with judicial process.  Agent may enter any of
Borrower's premises or other premises with required and necessary legal process
and without incurring liability to Borrower therefor, and Agent may thereupon,
or at any time thereafter in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement,
in its discretion without notice or demand, take the Collateral and remove the
same to such place as Agent may deem advisable and Agent may require Borrower to
make the Collateral available to Agent at a convenient place.  With or without
having the Collateral at the time or place of sale, Agent may sell the
Collateral, or any part thereof, at public or private sale, at any time or
place, in one or more sales, at such price or prices, and upon such terms,
either for cash, credit or future delivery, as Agent may elect. Except as to
that part of the Collateral which is perishable or threatens to decline speedily
in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Agent shall
give Borrower reasonable notification of such sale or sales, it being agreed
that in all events written notice mailed to Borrower via overnight mail at least
five (5) Business Days prior to such sale or sales is reasonable notification.
At any public sale Agent may bid for and become the purchaser, and Agent or any
other purchaser at any such sale thereafter shall hold the Collateral sold
absolutely free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity
of redemption and such right and equity are hereby expressly waived and released
by Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by law.  In connection with the
exercise of the foregoing remedies, Agent is granted permission to use all of
Borrower's trademarks, trade styles, trade names, patents, patent applications,
licenses, franchises and other proprietary rights which are used in connection
with Inventory for the purpose of disposing of such Inventory.  The proceeds
realized from the sale of any Collateral shall be applied first to the
reasonable costs, reasonable expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees and
reasonable expenses incurred by Agent for collection and for acquisition,
completion, protection, removal, storage, sale and delivery of the Collateral;
secondly to interest due upon any of the Obligations; and thirdly to the
principal of the Obligations.  If any deficiency shall arise, Borrower shall
remain liable to Agent and Lenders therefor.  Nothing herein contained shall
limit the rights of Agent, the Lenders or any other Person under the Other
Documents (including, without limitation, the U.K. Security Document).

       11.2   AGENT'S DISCRETION.  Agent shall have the right in its reasonable
discretion to determine which rights, Liens, security interests or remedies
Agent may at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, or modify or to take any
other action with respect thereto and such determination will not in any way
modify or affect any of Agent's or Lenders' rights hereunder.

       11.3   SETOFF.  In addition to any other rights which Agent or any Lender
may have under applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default


                                      -65-
<PAGE>

hereunder, Agent and such Lender shall have a right to apply any of Borrower's
property held by Agent or any Lender to reduce the Obligations.

       11.4   RIGHTS AND REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE.  The enumeration of the
foregoing rights and remedies is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise
of any right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or
remedy, all of which shall be cumulative and not alternative.

        XII.   WAIVERS AND JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS

       12.1   WAIVER OF NOTICE.  Borrower hereby waives demand, presentment,
protest and notice of demand, presentment, protest, default, non-payment,

of acceptance hereof, notice of loans or advances made, credit extended,
Collateral received or delivered, or any other action taken in reliance hereon,
and all other demands and notices of any description, except such as are
expressly provided for herein.

       12.2   DELAY.  No delay or omission on Agent's or any Lender's part in
exercising any right, remedy or option shall operate as a waiver of such or any
other right, remedy or option or of any default.

ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (A)

CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED
BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN
ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN

TRIAL BY JURY.

       XIII.  EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION.

       13.1   TERM.  This Agreement, which shall inure to the benefit of and
shall be binding upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of each of
Borrower, Agent and Lenders, shall become effective on the date hereof and shall
continue in full force and effect until the last day of the Term, unless sooner


                                      -66-
<PAGE>

terminated as herein provided.  In the event the Obligations are prepaid in full
prior to the last day of the Term and this Agreement is thereby terminated by
Borrower (the date of such prepayment hereinafter referred to as the "Prepayment
Date"), Borrower shall pay an early termination fee in an amount equal to (x)
$1,925,000 if the Prepayment Date occurs from the Effective Date to and
including the date immediately preceding the first anniversary of the Effective
Date, (y) $1,225,000 if the Prepayment Date occurs from the first anniversary of
the Effective Date to and including the date immediately preceding the second
anniversary of the Effective Date, and (z) $525,000 if the Prepayment Date
occurs on or after the second anniversary of the Effective Date to and including
the date immediately preceding the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the aggregate early termination
fees paid hereunder and under the Affiliate Loan Agreement exceed the foregoing
amounts.

       13.2   TERMINATION.  The termination of this Agreement shall not affect
any of Borrower', Agent's or any Lender's rights, or any of the Obligations
having their inception prior to the effective date of such termination, and the
provisions hereof shall continue to be fully operative until all transactions
entered into, rights or interests created or Obligations have been fully
disposed of, concluded or liquidated.  The security interests, Liens and rights
granted to Agent hereunder and the financing statements filed hereunder shall
continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding the termination of this
Agreement or the fact that Borrower's accounts may from time to time be
temporarily in a zero or credit position, until Borrower's rights to borrow
under this Agreement have been terminated all of the Obligations of Borrower has
been paid or performed in full or Borrower has furnished Agent and Lenders with
an indemnification reasonably satisfactory to Agent with respect to any
existing, pending or threatened claims or an existing state of facts which
might, in Agent's reasonable judgment which is exercised in good faith and not
in an arbitrary or capricious manner, give rise to an Obligation hereunder.
Accordingly, Borrower waives any rights which it may have under Section 9-404(1)
of the Uniform Commercial Code to demand the filing of termination statements
with respect to the Collateral, and Agent and Lenders shall not be required to
send such termination statements to Borrower, or to file them with any filing
office, unless and until this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance
with its terms and all Obligations paid in full in immediately available funds
or satisfied as set forth in the preceding sentence.  If there are no existing,
pending or threatened claims or existing state of facts which might, in Agent's
reasonable judgment which is exercised in good faith and not in an arbitrary or
capricious manner, give rise to an Obligation hereunder and the Obligations of
Borrower shall have been paid in full and this Agreement terminated, Agent shall
deliver termination statements with respect to the Collateral to Borrower.  All
representations, warranties, covenants, waivers and agreements contained herein
shall survive termination hereof until


                                      -67-
<PAGE>

all Obligations are paid or performed in full unless otherwise provided.

delivered at and shall be deemed to have been made in New York and is to be
performed at New York and interpreted and the rights and liabilities of the
parties hereto determined, in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
Any judicial proceeding by Borrower against Agent or any Lender involving,
directly or indirectly, any matter or claim in any way arising out of, related
to or connected with this or any related agreement, shall be brought only in a
state or federal court located in the City of New York, State of New York.  Any
judicial proceeding brought against Borrower with respect to any of the
Obligations, or this Agreement or any Other Documents may be brought in any
court of competent jurisdiction in the City of New York, State of New York,
United States of America, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement,
Borrower accepts for itself and in connection with its properties, generally and
unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts, and
irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection
with this Agreement.  Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in
any manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of Agent or any Lender to
bring proceedings against Borrower in the courts of any other competent
jurisdiction.  Borrower waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any
action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of
jurisdiction or venue or based on FORUM NON CONVENIENS.

       14.2   ENTIRE UNDERSTANDING AND AMENDMENTS AND MODIFICATIONS.

              (a)    This Agreement and the Documents executed concurrently
herewith contain the entire understanding between Borrower, Agent and Lenders
and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, if any, relating to the
subject matter hereof.  Any promises, representations, warranties or guarantees
not herein or therein contained shall have no force and effect unless in
writing, signed by Borrower's, Agent's and each Lender's respective officers.

              (b)    The Required Lenders, Agent with the consent in writing of
the Required Lenders, and Borrower may, subject to the provisions of this
Section 14.2 (b), from time to time enter into written supplemental agreements
to this Agreement or the Other Documents executed by Borrower, for the purpose
of adding or deleting any provisions or otherwise changing, varying or waiving
in any manner the rights of Lenders, Agent or Borrower thereunder or the
conditions, provisions or terms thereof or waiving any Event of Default
thereunder, but only to the extent specified in such written agreements;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the
consent of all Lenders:


                                      -68-
<PAGE>

                     (i)    increase the Commitment Percentage of any Lender;

                     (ii)   increase the Maximum Loan Amount;

                     (iii) extend the Term, the maturity of any of the Notes or
the due date for any amount payable hereunder, or decrease the rate of interest
or reduce any fee payable by Borrower to Lenders pursuant to this Agreement;

                     (iv) alter the several nature of the funding obligations of
Lenders or the definition of the term Required Lenders or alter, amend or modify
this Section 14.2(b);

                     (v)    alter, amend or modify Sections 2.12, 2.13 or 2.14
hereof;

                     (vi)   except as otherwise permitted hereunder, release any
Collateral during any calendar year having an aggregate value in excess of
$__________; or

                     (vii)  change the rights and duties of Agent.

Any such supplemental agreement shall apply equally to each Lender and shall be
binding upon Borrower, Lenders and Agent and all future holders of the
Obligations.  In the case of any waiver, Borrower, Agent and Lenders shall be
restored to their former positions and rights, and any Event of Default waived
shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, but no waiver of a specific
Event of Default shall extend to any subsequent Event of Default (whether or not
the subsequent Event of Default is the same as the Event of Default which was
waived), or impair any right consequent thereon.

       14.3   INDEMNITY.  Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders from and
against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or
nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against
Agent or any Lender as a result of any violation of any law or in any
litigation, proceeding or investigation instituted or conducted by any
governmental agency or instrumentality or any other Person with respect to any
aspect of, or any transaction contemplated by, or referred to in, or any matter
related to, this Agreement, any Other Documents (whether or not Agent or any
Lender is a party thereto), except to the extent that any of the foregoing
arises out of the gross negligence (but not mere negligence) or willful
misconduct of the party being indemnified.


                                      -69-

       14.4   SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; PARTICIPATIONS; NEW LENDERS.

              (a)    This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of Borrower, Agent, each Lender, all future holders of the Obligations
and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower may assign
or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the
prior written consent of Agent and each Lender.

              (b)    Borrower acknowledges that in the regular course of
commercial banking business one or more Lenders may at any time and from time to
time sell participating interests in the Advances to other financial
institutions (each such transferee or purchaser of a participating interest, a
"Transferee").  Each Transferee may exercise all rights of payment (including
without limitation rights of set-off) with respect to the portion of such
Advances held by it or other Obligations payable hereunder as fully as if such
Transferee were the direct holder thereof provided that Borrower shall not be
required to pay to any Transferee more than the amount which it would have been
required to pay to the Lender which granted an interest in its Advances or other
Obligations payable hereunder to such Transferee had such Lender retained such
interest in the Advances hereunder or other Obligations payable hereunder and in
no event shall Borrower be required to pay any such amount arising from the same
circumstances and with respect to the same Advances or other Obligations payable
hereunder to both such Lender and such Transferee.  Borrower hereby grants to
any Transferee a continuing security interest in any deposits, moneys or other
property actually or constructively held by such Transferee as security for the
Transferee's interest in the Advances.

              (c)    Any Lender may (i) pledge and assign as collateral to any
Federal Reserve Bank all or a portion of its interest in the Advances hereunder
and (ii) upon the prior written consent of Borrower and Agent, which consents
shall not be unreasonably withheld, sell, assign or transfer all or any part of
its rights under this Agreement and the Other Documents to one or more
additional banks or financial institutions and one or more additional banks or
financial institutions may commit to make Advances hereunder (each a "Purchasing
Lender"), in minimum amounts of not less than $5,000,000, pursuant to a
Commitment Transfer Supplement, executed by a Purchasing Lender, the Transferor
Lender, and Agent and delivered to Agent for recording.  Upon such execution,
delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the transfer effective date
determined pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i) Purchasing
Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such
Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender
thereunder with a Commitment Percentage as set forth therein, and (ii) the
transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Commitment
Transfer Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement, the
Commitment Transfer


                                      -70-
<PAGE>

Supplement creating a novation for that purpose.  Such Commitment Transfer
Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to
the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the
resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by
such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such
transferor Lender under this Agreement and the Other Documents.  By consenting
to the foregoing, Borrower hereby agree to the addition of such Purchasing
Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages arising from
the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and
obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement and the Other
Documents.  Borrower shall execute and deliver such further documents and do
such further acts and things in order to effectuate the foregoing.

              (d)    Agent shall maintain at its address a copy of each
Commitment Transfer Supplement delivered to it and a register (the "Register")
for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Advances owing to each
Lender from time to time.  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in
the absence of manifest error, and Borrower, Agent and Lenders may treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Advances
recorded therein for the purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be
available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and
from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  Agent shall receive a fee in
the amount of $3,500 payable by the applicable Purchasing Lender upon the
effective date of each transfer or assignment to such Purchasing Lender.

              (e)    Borrower authorize each Lender to disclose to any
Transferee or Purchasing Lender and any prospective Transferee or Purchasing
Lender any and all financial information in such Lender's possession concerning
Borrower which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of Borrower
pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with such Lender's credit evaluation
of Borrower.

       14.5   APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS.  Following the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, Agent shall have the continuing and
exclusive right to apply or reverse and re-apply any and all proceeds of
Collateral to any portion of the Obligations.  To the extent that Borrower makes
a payment or Agent or any Lender receives any payment or proceeds of the
Collateral for Borrower's benefit, which are subsequently invalidated, declared
to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a
trustee, debtor in possession, receiver, custodian or any other party under any
bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then, to such extent, the
Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and
continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Agent or such
Lender.

       14.7   SURVIVABILITY.  If any part of this Agreement is contrary to,
prohibited by, or deemed invalid under applicable laws or regulations, such

       14.9   INJUNCTIVE RELIEF.  Borrower recognizes that, in the event
Borrower fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations or
liabilities under this Agreement, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate
relief to Agent and Lenders; therefore, each Lender, if such Lender so requests,
shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such


                                      -73-

case without the necessity of proving actual damages to the extent permitted by

       XV.    INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.


       XVI.   REGARDING AGENT.

       16.1.  APPOINTMENT.  Each Lender hereby designates BNYCC to act as Agent
for such Lender under this Agreement and the Other Documents.  Each Lender
hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf under the
provisions of this Agreement and the Other Documents and to exercise such powers
and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically
delegated to or required of Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and Agent shall hold all Collateral,
payments of principal and interest, fees (except the fees set forth in Section
3.2 and the Fee Letter), and collections received pursuant to this Agreement,
for the ratable benefit of Lenders.  Agent may perform any of its duties
hereunder by or through its agents or employees.  As to any matters not
expressly provided for by this Agreement (including without limitation,
collection of the Notes), Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion
or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and
shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the
instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Agent shall not be required to take any action which
exposes Agent to liability or which is


                                      -74-
<PAGE>

contrary to this Agreement or the Other Documents or applicable law unless Agent
is furnished with an indemnification reasonably satisfactory to Agent with
respect thereto.

       16.2.  NATURE OF DUTIES.  Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities
except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Other Documents.
Neither Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be
(i) liable for any action taken or omitted by them as such hereunder or in
connection herewith, unless caused by their willful misconduct or gross (not
mere) negligence, or (ii) responsible in any manner for any recitals,
statements, representations or warranties made by Borrower or any officer
thereof contained in this Agreement, or in any of the Other Documents or in any
certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in,
or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any of the
Other Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness,
enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, or any of the Other Documents
or for any failure of Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder.  Agent
shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to
the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or
conditions of, this Agreement or any of the Other Documents, or to inspect the
properties, books or records of Borrower.  The duties of Agent as respects the
Advances to Borrower shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; Agent
shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect
of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended
to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Agent any obligations in respect
of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein.

       16.3.  LACK OF RELIANCE ON AGENT AND RESIGNATION.  Independently and
without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender, each Lender has made and shall
continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial
condition and affairs of Borrower in connection with the making and the
continuance of the Advances hereunder and the taking or not taking of any action
in connection herewith, and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of
Borrower.  Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a
continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information
with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before making of the
Advances or at any time or times thereafter except as shall be provided by
Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof.  Agent shall not be responsible to any
Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties
herein or in any agreement, document, certificate or statement delivered in
connection with or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity,
enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Other
Document, or of the financial condition of Borrower, or be required to make any
inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms,
provisions or conditions of this Agreement, the Other Documents or the financial


                                      -75-
<PAGE>

condition of Borrower, or the existence of any Event of Default or any Incipient
Event of Default.

       Agent may resign on sixty (60) days' written notice to each of Lenders
and Borrower and upon such resignation, the Required Lenders will promptly
designate a successor Agent reasonably satisfactory to Borrower.

       Any such successor Agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties
of Agent, and the term "Agent" shall mean such successor agent effective upon
its appointment, and the former Agent's rights, powers and duties as Agent shall
be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such
former Agent.  After any Agent's resignation as Agent, the provisions of this
Article XVI shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

       16.4.  CERTAIN RIGHTS OF AGENT.  If Agent shall request instructions from
Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in
connection with this Agreement or any Other Document, Agent shall be entitled to
refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have
received instructions from the Required Lenders; and Agent shall not incur
liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.  Without limiting the
foregoing, Lenders shall not have any right of action whatsoever against Agent
as a result of its acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with
the instructions of the Required Lenders.

       16.5.  RELIANCE.  Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement,
certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, order or other
document or telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to
have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or entity, and, with respect
to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and the Other Documents and
its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.  Agent may employ
agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be liable for the default or
misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by Agent with
reasonable care.

       16.6.  NOTICE OF DEFAULT.  Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default
hereunder or under the Other Documents, unless Agent has received notice from a
Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement or the Other Documents,
describing such Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default and stating that
such notice is a "notice of default".  In the event that Agent receives such a
notice, Agent shall give notice thereof to Lenders.  Agent shall take such
action with respect to such Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default as
shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; PROVIDED, THAT, unless and
until Agent shall have received such directions, Agent may (but


                                      -76-
<PAGE>

shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action,
with respect to such Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default as it shall
deem advisable in the best interests of Lenders.

       16.7.  INDEMNIFICATION.  To the extent Agent is not reimbursed and
indemnified by Borrower, each Lender will reimburse and indemnify Agent in
proportion to its respective portion of the Advances (or, if no Advances are
outstanding, according to its Commitment Percentage), from and against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which
may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent in performing its
duties hereunder, or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or
any Other Document; PROVIDED THAT, Lenders shall not be liable for any portion
of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent's gross
negligence (but not mere negligence) or willful misconduct.

       16.8.  AGENT IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY.  With respect to the obligation
of Agent to lend under this Agreement, the Advances made by it shall have the
same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and as if it were not
performing the duties as Agent specified herein; and the term "Lender" or any
similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include
Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender.  Agent may engage in business with
Borrower as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may
accept fees and other consideration from Borrower for services in connection
with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to
Lenders.

       16.9   DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS.  To the extent Agent receives documents and
information from Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Agent will
promptly furnish such documents and information to Lenders.

       16.10. BORROWER'S UNDERTAKING TO AGENT.  Without prejudice to their
respective obligations to Lenders under the other provisions of this Agreement,
Borrower hereby undertakes with Agent to pay to Agent from time to time on
demand all amounts from time to time due and payable by it for the account of
Agent or Lenders or any of them pursuant to this Agreement to the extent not

transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Interest
Coverage Ratio (the "Transaction Date"), the ratio of (i) the aggregate amount

aggregate Consolidated Interest Expense of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries that is anticipated to accrue during a period consisting of the
fiscal quarter in which the Transaction Date occurs and the three fiscal
quarters immediately subsequent thereto (based upon the pro forma amount and
maturity of, and interest payments in respect of, Indebtedness of the Company
and its Restricted Subsidiaries expected by the Company to be outstanding on the
Transaction Date), assuming for the purposes of this measurement the
continuation of market interest rates prevailing on the Transaction Date and

<PAGE>

four-quarter period (or a portion thereof), the resulting rate shall be used for
such four-quarter period or portion thereof; PROVIDED FURTHER that any
Consolidated Interest Expense with respect to Indebtedness Incurred or retired
by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during the fiscal quarter
in which the Transaction Date occurs shall be calculated as if such Indebtedness
was so Incurred or retired on the first day of the fiscal quarter in which the
Transaction Date occurs; and PROVIDED FURTHER, that if the transaction giving
rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio would
have the effect of increasing or decreasing EBITDA in the future, EBITDA shall
be calculated on a pro forma basis as if such transaction had occurred on the
first day of the four fiscal quarters referred to in clause (i) of this
definition, and if, during the same four fiscal quarters, (x) the Company or any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall have engaged in any Asset Sale, EBITDA for
such period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the EBITDA (if positive), or
increased by an amount equal to the EBITDA (if negative), directly attributable
to the assets which are the subject of such Asset Sale for such period
calculated on a pro forma basis as if such Asset Sale and any related retirement
of Indebtedness had occurred on the first day of such period or (y) the Company
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall have acquired any material assets
outside the ordinary course of business, EBITDA shall be calculated on a pro
forma basis as if such asset acquisitions and any related Incurrence of
Indebtedness had occurred on the first day of such four fiscal quarter period. 

          "Consolidated Interest Expense" means, with respect to any Person for
any period, without duplication, (i) the sum of (a) the aggregate amount of cash

(C) the interest portion of any deferred payment obligation, (D) all accrued
interest, and (E) all commissions, discounts, commitment fees, origination fees
and other fees and charges owed with respect to the New Credit Facility
(including any refinancing thereof) and other Indebtedness) paid, accrued or
scheduled to be paid or accrued during such period; (b) Preferred Stock
dividends and Redeemable Stock dividends of such Person (and of its Restricted
Subsidiaries, if paid to a Person other than such Person or its Wholly Owned
Subsidiaries) declared and payable other than in kind; (c) the portion of any
Capital Lease Obligation of such Person or its Restricted Subsidiaries allocable
to interest expense in accordance with GAAP; (d) the portion of any rental
obligation of such Person or its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of any Sale
and Leaseback Transaction allocable to interest expense (determined as if such
obligation were treated as a Capital Lease Obligation); and (e) to the extent
any Indebtedness of any other Person (other than Restricted Subsidiaries) is
Guaranteed by such Person or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, the aggregate
amount of interest paid, accrued or scheduled to be paid or accrued by such
other Person during such period attributable to such Indebtedness; less (ii) to
the extent included in clause (i) above, amortization or write-off of deferred
financing costs of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries during such

and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving
or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in the
next paragraph.  If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the
Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date, and no other Holders,
shall be entitled to take or revoke the relevant action, whether or not such
Holders remain Holders after such record date; PROVIDED


                                         -17-

<PAGE>

that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the
applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of
Outstanding Securities on such record date.  Nothing in this paragraph shall be
construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action
for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph
(whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action
by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph
shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the
requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on the date such action is
taken.  Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the
Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the
proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the
Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in
Section 106.

          The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of
determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to join in the giving
or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration
referred to in Section 502, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred
to in Section 507(2) or (iv) any direction referred to in Section 512, in each
case with respect to the Securities.  If any record date is set pursuant to this
paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date, and no
other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or
direction or to revoke the same, whether or not such Holders remain Holders
after such record date; PROVIDED that no such action shall be effective
hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders
of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on such record date.
Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting
a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set
pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall
automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect),
and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any
action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding
Securities on the date such action is taken.  Promptly after any record date is
set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company's expense, shall
cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the
applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each
Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106.

          With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the
party hereto which sets such record date may designate any day as the
"Expiration Date" and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any
earlier or later day; PROVIDED  that no such change shall be effective unless
notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other parties hereto
in writing, and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section
106, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date; provided, further, that the
Expiration Date shall be no later than 180 days following the record date
relating to such Expiration Date.  If an Expiration Date is not designated with
respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which
set such record date shall be deemed to have designated the 180th day after such
record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to
change the Expiration Date to any earlier day as provided in this paragraph.

          Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take
any action hereunder with regard to the Securities may do so with regard to all
or any part of the principal amount of such Securities or by one or more duly
appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with
regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

SECTION 105.  NOTICES, ETC., TO TRUSTEE, COMPANY AND THE SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS.

          Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to
be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

         (1)  the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company or any Subsidiary
    Guarantor shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given,
    furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust
    Office, Attention: Corporate Trustee Administration, or

         (2)  the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor by the Trustee or by any
    Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise
    herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage
    prepaid,


                                         -18-

<PAGE>

    to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor addressed to it at the address
    of the Company's principal office specified in the first paragraph of this
    instrument, Attention:  President, or at any other address previously
    furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company or any Subsidiary
    Guarantor.

         In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by
reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail,
then such notification shall constitute a sufficient notification for every
purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing by facsimile
transmission or otherwise to or with the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor at
the Company's principal office specified in the first paragraph of this
instrument or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the
Trustee by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor.

SECTION 106.  NOTICE TO HOLDERS; WAIVER.

          Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such
notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided)
if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected
by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later
than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any),
prescribed for the giving of such notice.  In any case where notice to Holders
is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any
notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such
notice with respect to other Holders.  Where this Indenture provides for notice
in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to
receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be
the equivalent of such notice.  Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with
the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity
of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

          In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by
reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail,
then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall
constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

SECTION 107.  CONFLICT WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT.

          If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a
provision of the Trust Indenture Act which is required under the Trust Indenture
Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the latter provision shall
control.  If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision
of the Trust Indenture Act which may be so modified or excluded, the latter
provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be
excluded, as the case may be.

SECTION 108.  EFFECT OF HEADINGS, TABLE OF CONTENTS AND CROSS-REFERENCE SHEET.

          The Article and Section headings herein, the Table of Contents and the
Cross-Reference Sheet are for convenience only and shall not affect the
construction hereof.

SECTION 109.  SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

          All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company and the
Subsidiary Guarantors shall bind their successors and assigns, whether so
expressed or not.

SECTION 110.  SEPARABILITY CLAUSE.

          In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities or the
Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed thereon shall be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

SECTION 111.  BENEFITS OF INDENTURE.

          Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities or the Subsidiary
Guarantees endorsed thereon, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other
than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, and the Holders, any
benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

SECTION 112.  GOVERNING LAW.

          This Indenture and the Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantees
endorsed thereon shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of New York without reference to principles of
conflicts of laws.

SECTION 113.  LEGAL HOLIDAYS.

          A "Legal Holiday" is a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which banking
institutions are not required to be open in the State of New York.

          In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Purchase
Date, Change of Control Payment Date or Stated Maturity of any Security shall be
a Legal Holiday, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or
of the Securities other than a provision in the Securities which expressly
states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section) payment of
interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made on such date, but
may be made on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday with the same
force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date,
Purchase Date, Change of Control Payment Date or at the Stated Maturity,
PROVIDED that no interest shall accrue from and after such Interest Payment
Date, Redemption Date, Purchase Date, Change of Control Payment Date or Stated
Maturity, as the case may be.  If a regular record date is a Legal Holiday, the
record date shall not be affected.

Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities not less than 10
days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other

payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made by
check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall
appear in the Security Register.

          Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security
set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes
have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

          This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the
Company (herein called the "Securities"), issued under an Indenture, dated as of
[_______________], 1996 (herein called the "Indenture", which term shall have
the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company, the
Subsidiary Guarantors named therein and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company,
as Trustee (herein called the "Trustee", which term includes any successor

a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and
immunities thereunder of the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee,
and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities
are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.  This Security is one of the
Securities issued pursuant to the Indenture limited in aggregate principal
amount to $150,000,000 .

          The Securities are subject to redemption upon not less than 30 nor
more than 60 days' notice by mail, at any time on or after [_______________]
2001, in whole or in part, at the election of the Company, at the following
Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount):  If

                         2002           [_____]%
                         2003           [_____]%

and thereafter, beginning [_______________], 2004, at a Redemption Price equal
to 100% of the principal amount, together, in the case of any such redemption,
with accrued and unpaid interest (if any) to the Redemption Date, but interest
installments whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to such Redemption Date will
be payable to the Holders of the Securities, or one or more Predecessor
Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates
referred to on the face hereof, all as provided in the Indenture.

          In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new
Security or Securities of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be
issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

          Upon a Change of Control, any Holder of Securities will have the right
to cause the Company to repurchase all or any part of the Securities of such
Holder at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the
Securities to be purchased plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the
Change of Control Payment Date as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the
Indenture.

          As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the obligations of the Company under this Security are
Guaranteed pursuant to Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed hereon and as provided in
the Indenture.  Each Holder, by holding this Security, agrees to all of the
terms and provisions of said Guarantees.  The Indenture provides that a
Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from its Subsidiary Guarantee upon
compliance with certain conditions.

          The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the
entire indebtedness of this Security or certain restrictive covenants and Events
of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with
certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

          If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall occur and
be continuing, the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the
Securities may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect
provided in the Indenture.

          The Indenture provides that modifications and amendments of the
Indenture may be made by the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee
without the consent of any Holders of Securities in certain limited
circumstances. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein
provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and the rights of the
Holders of the Securities under the Indenture at any time by the Company, the
Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time
Outstanding.  The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of
specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities at the time
Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities, to waive compliance by
the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors with certain provisions of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. 
Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive
and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of
any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is
made upon this Security.

          As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the
Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding
with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or
for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given
the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the
Securities, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
Securities at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the
Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee
and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have
received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities at the
time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have
failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such
notice, request and offer of indemnity.  The foregoing shall not apply to any
suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any
payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the
respective due dates expressed herein.

          No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security
or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which
is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and
interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or
currency, herein prescribed.

          Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months.

          As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security
Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the
office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and any
premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the

denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.

Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Securities
are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of like
tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same.

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

transfer, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee and any agent of

from any requirement of any other Guarantee of, all or of any of the Securities,
the election by the Trustee or any of the Holders in any proceeding under
Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Sections 101-1330, as amended (the
"Bankruptcy Code"), of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy
Code, any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the Company, as 
debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, the 
disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of
the claims of the Trustee or any of the Holders for payment of any of the 
Securities (including, without limitation, any interest or premium thereon), any
waiver or consent by the Holder of such Security or by the Trustee with respect 
to any provisions thereof or of the Indenture or with respect to the provisions 
hereof as they apply to any other Subsidiary Guarantor, the obtaining of any 
judgment against the Company or any action to enforce the same or any other 
circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or
defense of a guarantor.  Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby waives the 
benefits of diligence, presentment, demand of payment, any requirement that the 
Trustee or any of the Holders protect, secure, perfect or insure any security 
interest in or other Lien on any property subject thereto or exhaust any right 
or take action against the Company or any other Person, filing of claims with a 
court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to 
require a proceeding first against the Company, protest or notice with respect 
to such Security or the Indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands 
whatsoever, and covenants that this Subsidiary Guarantee will not be discharged 
except by complete performance of the obligations contained in such Security and
in this Subsidiary Guarantee.  Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agrees 
that, in the event of a default in payment of principal (or premium, if any) or 
interest on such Security, whether at its Stated Maturity, by acceleration, call
for redemption, purchase or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by 
the Trustee on behalf of, or by, the Holder of such Security, subject to the 
terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture, directly against all or any of 
the Subsidiary Guarantors to enforce this Subsidiary Guarantee without first
proceeding against the Company.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that if, after
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee or
any of the Holders are prevented by applicable law from exercising their
respective rights to accelerate the maturity of the Securities, to collect
interest on the Securities, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy
with respect to the Securities, such Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to pay to the
Trustee for the account of the Holders, upon demand therefor, the amount that
would otherwise have been due and payable had such rights and remedies been
permitted to be exercised by the Trustee or any of the Holders.  

          No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this
Subsidiary Guarantee or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the Subsidiary
Guarantee of any Subsidiary Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, of
the full and punctual payment of the principal (and premium, if any) and
interest on the Security upon which this Subsidiary Guarantee is endorsed.

          Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the
Holder of this Security against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by
such Subsidiary Guarantor on account of this Security pursuant to the provisions
of this Subsidiary Guarantee or the Indenture; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such
Subsidiary Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or to receive any payments
arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until the principal of
(and premium, if any) and interest on this Security and all other Securities
issued under the Indenture shall have been paid in full. 

          This Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and
continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company
for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or make
an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be
appointed for all or any significant part of the Company's assets, and shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated,
as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Securities is,
pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be
restored or returned by any obligee on the Securities, whether as a "voidable
preference," "fraudulent transfer," or otherwise, all as though such payment or
performance had not been made.  In the event that any payment, or any part
thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Securities shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by
such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.  

          The Subsidiary Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution
from any non-paying Subsidiary Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right
does not impair the rights of the Holders under this Subsidiary Guarantee.

          The Subsidiary Guarantors or any particular Subsidiary Guarantor shall

conditions provided in the Indenture.  

          By delivery of a supplemental indenture to the Trustee in accordance
with the terms of the Indenture, each Person that became a Subsidiary Guarantor
after the date of the Indenture will be deemed to have executed and delivered
this Subsidiary Guarantee for the benefit of the Holder of this Security with
the same effect as if such Subsidiary Guarantor was named below.  

          All terms used in this Subsidiary Guarantee which are defined in the
Indenture referred to in the Security upon which this Subsidiary Guarantee is
endorsed shall have the meanings assigned to them in such Indenture.  

          This Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be valid or obligatory for any
purpose until the certificate of authentication on the Security upon which this
Subsidiary Guarantee is endorsed shall have been executed by the Trustee under
the Indenture by manual signature.  

          Reference is made to Article Thirteen of the Indenture for further
provisions with respect to this Subsidiary Guarantee.  

          THIS SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE  WITH THE INTERNAL  LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT  REFERENCE
TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS.

                                    THE SECURITIES

SECTION 301.  DENOMINATIONS.

         The Securities shall be issuable only in registered form without
coupons and only in denominations of $1000 or an integral multiple thereof.

SECTION 302.  EXECUTION, AUTHENTICATION, DELIVERY AND DATING.

         The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its
Chairman of the Board, its Vice Chairman of the Board, its President or by any
Vice President, together with any one of the Treasurer, any Assistant Treasurer,
the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company.  The signature of any
of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.

         Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals
who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such
offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not
hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

         Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

         No Security or Subsidiary Guarantee endorsed thereon shall be entitled
to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose
unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication
substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual
signature of an authorized officer, and such certificate upon any Security shall
be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security and the
Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed thereon have been duly authenticated and
delivered hereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security


                                         -28-

<PAGE>

shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold
by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for
cancellation as provided in Section 308, for all purposes of this Indenture such
Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered
hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

         The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Securities for original
issue in an aggregate principal amount of $150,000,000, upon Company Order. 
Such Company Order shall specify the date on which the original issue of
Securities is to be authenticated and shall further provide instructions
concerning registration, amounts for each Holder and delivery.  The aggregate
principal amount of Securities outstanding at any time may not exceed
$150,000,000, except as provided in Section 305.

SECTION 303.  TEMPORARY SECURITIES.

         Pending the preparation of definitive Securities, the Company may
execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed
or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the
tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and having
endorsed thereon the Subsidiary Guarantees substantially of the tenor of the
definitive Subsidiary Guarantees in lieu of which they are issued duly executed
by the Subsidiary Guarantors and with such appropriate insertions, omissions,
substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may
determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

         If temporary Securities are issued, the Company will cause definitive
Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay.  After the preparation of
definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for
definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at the office
or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose, without charge to the
Holder.  Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary
Securities, the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more
definitive Securities with the Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed thereon, of any
authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. 
Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled
to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities.

SECTION 304. REGISTRATION, REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE.

         The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a
register (the register maintained in such office or in any other office or
agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 1002 being herein sometimes
referred to as the "Security Register") in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration
of Securities and of transfers of Securities.  The Trustee is hereby appointed
"Security Registrar" for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of
Securities as herein provided.

         Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at the
office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, the Company and
each Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more
new Securities with the Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed thereon, of any
authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

         At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for other
Securities with the Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed thereon, of any authorized
denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender
of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency.  Whenever any
Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company and each Subsidiary
Guarantor shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the
Securities with the Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed thereon which the Holder
making the exchange is entitled to receive.

         All Securities with the Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed thereon issued
upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid
obligations of the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor, evidencing the same 


                                         -29-

<PAGE>

debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities
surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

         Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer
or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly
endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the
Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

         No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than
exchanges pursuant to Section 303, 906 or 1106 not involving any transfer.

         If the Securities are to be redeemed in part, the Company shall not be
required (A) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Securities
during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of
the mailing of a notice of redemption of any such Securities selected for
redemption under Section 1102 and ending at the close of business on the day of
such mailing, or (B) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so
selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of
any Security being redeemed in part.

         With respect to Global Securities:

         (1)  Each Global Security authenticated under this Indenture shall be
    registered in the name of the Depositary designated for such Global
    Security or a nominee thereof and deposited with such Depositary or a
    nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall
    constitute a single Security for all purposes of this Indenture.

         (2)  A Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the
    Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary
    to the Depositary.  A Global Security is exchangeable for certificated
    Securities only if (i) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is
    unwilling or unable to continue as a Depositary for such Global Security or
    if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered
    under the Exchange Act, (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the
    Trustee a notice that such Global Security shall be so transferable,
    registrable, and exchangeable, and such transfers shall be registrable or
    (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default or an
    event which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would
    constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Securities represented
    by such Global Security.  Any Global Security that is exchangeable for
    certificated Securities pursuant to the preceding sentence will be
    transferred to, and registered and exchanged for, certificated Securities
    in authorized denominations, without legends applicable to a Global
    Security, and registered in such names as the Depositary holding such
    Global Security may direct.  Subject to the foregoing, a Global Security is
    not exchangeable, except for a Global Security of like denomination to be
    registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee.  In the event that
    a Global Security becomes exchangeable for certificated Securities,
    (i) certificated Securities will be issued only in fully registered form in
    denominations of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof, (ii) payment of
    principal, premium (if any) and interest on the certificated Securities
    will be payable, and the transfer of the certificated Securities will be
    registerable, at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such
    purposes, and (iii) no service charge will be made for any registration of
    transfer or exchange of the certificated Securities, although the Company
    may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental
    charge imposed in connection therewith.

         (3)  Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security or any
    portion thereof shall have an aggregate principal amount equal to that of
    such Global Security or portion thereof to be so exchanged, shall be
    registered in such names and be in such authorized denominations as the
    Depositary shall designate and shall bear the applicable legends provided
    for herein.  Any Global Security to be exchanged in whole shall be
    surrendered by the Depositary to the Trustee.  With respect to any Global
    Security to be exchanged in part, either such Global Security shall be so
    surrendered for exchange or, if the Trustee is acting as custodian for the
    Depositary or its nominee with respect to such Global Security, the
    principal amount thereof shall be reduced, by an amount equal to the
    portion thereof to be


                                         -30-

<PAGE>

    so exchanged, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of
    the Trustee.  Upon any such surrender or adjustment, the Trustee shall
    authenticate and deliver the Security issuable on such exchange to or upon
    the order of the Depositary or an authorized representative thereof.

         (4)  Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of
    transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any
    portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Section, Section 303, 305, 906 or
    1106 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and
    shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name
    of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee
    thereof.

         Members of, or participants in, the Depositary ("Participants") shall
have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on
their behalf by the Depositary or by the Trustee as the custodian of the
Depositary or under such Global Security, and the Depositary may be treated by
the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee and any agent of the
Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such
Global Security for all purposes whatsoever.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the
Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or
other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the
Depositary and its Participants, the operation of customary practices of such
Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial
interest in any Global Security.

SECTION 305.  MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST AND STOLEN SECURITIES.

         If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company
and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security with the Subsidiary Guarantees
endorsed thereon of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding.

         If there shall be delivered to the Company and the
Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of
any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to
save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence
of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by
a bona fide purchaser, the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed,
lost or stolen Security, a new Security with the Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed
thereon of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding.

         In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has
become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may,
instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

         Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company
may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

         Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any
destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional
contractual obligation of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, whether or
not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by
anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

         The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to
the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement
or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

SECTION 306.  PAYMENT OF INTEREST; INTEREST RIGHTS PRESERVED.

         Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or
duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in
whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered
at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.


                                         -31-

<PAGE>

         Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called
"Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the
relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such
Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as
provided in Clause (1) or (2) below:

         (1)   The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest
    to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective
    Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a
    Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall
    be fixed in the following manner.  The Company shall notify the Trustee in
    writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each
    Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the
    Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the
    aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest
    or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit
    prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be
    held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted
    Interest as in this Clause provided.  Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a
    Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall
    be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the
    proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee
    of the notice of the proposed payment.  The Trustee shall promptly notify
    the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense
    of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such
    Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given to each
    Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106, not less than
    10 days prior to such Special Record Date.  Notice of the proposed payment
    of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been
    so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose
    names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are
    registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall
    no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2).

         (2)  The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the
    Securities in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the
    requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be
    listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after
    notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant
    to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the
    Trustee.

         Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security
delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange
for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued
and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

SECTION 307.  PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS.

         Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer,
the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee and any agent of the Company
or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as
the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of
and any premium and (subject to Section 306) any interest on such Security and
for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and
neither the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee nor any agent of the
Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

SECTION 308.  CANCELLATION.

         All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption or registration of
transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee,
be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it.  The Company
may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities
previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have
acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any
other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities
previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold,
and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee.  No
Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities
cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly


                                         -32-

<PAGE>

permitted by this Indenture.  All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall
be disposed of as directed by a Company Order; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Trustee shall not be required to destroy such cancelled Securities.

SECTION 309.  COMPUTATION OF INTEREST.

         Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months.

SECTION 310.  CUSIP NUMBERS.

         The Company in issuing the Securities may use CUSIP numbers, and, if
so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption, any Prepayment
Offer Notice or any notice of a Change of Control Offer as a convenience to
Holders; PROVIDED that any such notice may state that no representation is made
as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as
contained in any notice of redemption, Prepayment Offer Notice or any notice of
a Change of Control Offer and that reliance may be placed only on the other
identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption,
prepayment or offer shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such
numbers.

                                     ARTICLE FOUR

                              SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

SECTION 401.  SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE.

         This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further
effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, at the
expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when

         (1)  either

              (A)  all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered
         (other than (i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen

         (and the Company is not prohibited from depositing such money for such
         purpose on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture) for
         principal and any premium and interest to the date of such deposit (in
         the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the
         Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be;

SECTION 502.  ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT.

         If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in
Section 501(6) or 501(7)) shall occur and be continuing, then in every such case
the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities may declare the principal amount of and accrued and
unpaid interest on all the Securities to be due and payable immediately, by a
notice in writing to the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors (and to the
Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal
amount and accrued and unpaid interest shall become immediately due and payable.
If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(6) or 501(7) occurs, the
principal amount of and interest on all the Securities shall automatically, and
without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any
Holder, become immediately due and payable.

before a judgment or decree based on acceleration for payment of the money due
has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the 


                                         -35-

<PAGE>

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities, by written notice to the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and
the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if

         (1)  the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum
    sufficient to pay

                   (A)  all overdue interest on all Securities,

                   (B)  to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful
         and is required hereunder, interest upon overdue interest at the rate
         borne by such Securities, and

                   (C) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and
    the reasonable compensation,  expenses, disbursements and advances of the
    Trustee, its agents and counsel;

and

         (2)  all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the
    principal or interest of the Securities which has become due solely by such
    declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in
    Section 513.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right
consequent thereto.

SECTION 503.  COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY TRUSTEE.

    The Company covenants that if

         (1)  default is made in the payment of any interest on the Securities
    when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a
    period of 30 days, or

         (2)  default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium,
    if any, on) the Securities at the Maturity thereof,

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the
Holders of the Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on the
Securities for principal and any premium and interest and, to the extent that
payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue
principal and premium and on any overdue interest, at the rate borne by the
Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient
to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel.

         If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in
its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the
Holders of the Securities by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the
Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights,
whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this
Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce
any other proper remedy.

SECTION 504.  TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

         In case of any judicial proceeding relative to the Company (or any
other obligor upon the Securities), its property or its creditors, the Trustee
shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or
otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act
in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such
proceeding.  In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and
receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims
and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee,
liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the
Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such
payments directly


                                         -36-

<PAGE>

to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607.

         No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the
Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder
any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the
Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to
vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election
of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors'
or other similar committee.

SECTION 505.  TRUSTEE MAY ENFORCE CLAIMS WITHOUT POSSESSION OF SECURITIES.

         All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities
or Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed thereon may be prosecuted and enforced by the
Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production
thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted
by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust,
and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the
Securities.

SECTION 506.  APPLICATION OF MONEY COLLECTED.

         Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be
applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and,
in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or any premium
or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the
payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

         FIRST:  to the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under
    Section 607; and

         SECOND: to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for
    principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities in respect of
    which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably,
    without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due
    and payable on such Securities for principal and any premium and interest,
    respectively; and

         THIRD:  to the Company.

SECTION 507.  LIMITATION ON SUITS.

         No Holder of any Security shall have any right to institute any
proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless

         (1)  such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of
    a continuing Event of Default;

         (2)  the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
    Outstanding Securities shall have made written request to the Trustee to
    institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name
    as Trustee hereunder;

         (3)   such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable
    indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in
    compliance with such request;

         (4)  the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request
    and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and


                                         -37-

<PAGE>

         (5)  no direction inconsistent with such written request has been
    given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority
    in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities;

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have
any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision
of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of
such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any
other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in
the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such
Holders.

SECTION 508.  UNCONDITIONAL RIGHT OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM AND
INTEREST.

         Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, a Holder of the
Securities shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive
payment of the principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 306)
interest on the Securities on the Stated Maturities expressed in the Securities
(or, in the case of redemption, prepayment or Change of Control, on the
Redemption Date, Purchase Date or Change of Control Payment Date, respectively)
and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights
shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

SECTION 509.  RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

         If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce
any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to
the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any
determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall
be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and
thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue
as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 510.  RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

         Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph
of Section 305, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the
Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or
remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be
cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or
now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.  The assertion or
employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the
concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 511.   DELAY OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER.

         No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of the Securities
to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair
any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or
an acquiescence therein.  Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law
to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case
may be.

SECTION 512.  CONTROL BY HOLDERS.

         The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising
any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities;
PROVIDED that


                                         -38-

<PAGE>

         (1)  such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
    with this Indenture and would not involve the Trustee in personal
    liability, and

         (2)  the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
    Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

SECTION 513.  WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS.

         The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities may by Act of such Holders on behalf of the Holders of
all the Securities waive any past or existing Default or Event of Default
hereunder and its consequences, except a Default

         (1)  in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on
    the Securities, or

         (2)  in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article
    Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of
    each Outstanding Security.

         Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event
of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every
purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other default or impair any right consequent thereto.

SECTION 514.  UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS.

         In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this
Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or
omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to
file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs against
any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust
Indenture Act; PROVIDED that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act
shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make
such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company or the Trustee.

SECTION 515.  WAIVER OF USURY, STAY OR EXTENSION LAWS.

         Each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors covenants (to the
extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or
plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of,
any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter
in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture;
and each of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law
and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any
power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of
every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

                                     ARTICLE SIX

SECTION 601.  CERTAIN DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.

         The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee shall be as provided by
the Trust Indenture Act.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this
Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise
incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder,
or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers,


                                         -39-

<PAGE>

if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds
or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured
to it.  Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this
Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording
protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

SECTION 602.  NOTICE OF DEFAULTS.

         If a Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the
Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder notice of the Default within
90 days after it occurs.  Except in the case of a Default in payment of
principal of or interest on any Security (including payments pursuant to the
mandatory redemption provisions of such Security, if any), the Trustee may
withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good
faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

SECTION 603.  CERTAIN RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.

         Subject to the provisions of Section 601:

         (1)  the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or
    refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement,
    instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order,

    shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to
    taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless
    other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of
    bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers' Certificate;

         (4)  the Trustee may consult with counsel reasonably selected by it
    and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be
    full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action
    taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance
    thereon;

         (5)  the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
    rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction
    of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall
    have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the
    costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance
    with such request or direction;

         (6)  the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the
    facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
    instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order,
    bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or
    document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry
    or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the
    Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it
    shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the
    Company, personally or by agent or attorney; and

         (7)  the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
    perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
    attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or
    negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by
    it hereunder.

SECTION 604.  TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER.

         The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation
as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not
be accountable for the Company's use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it
shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company in this Indenture or
in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Securities or in the
Securities other than the Trustee's certificate of authentication.  The Trustee

have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security
Registrar or such other agent.

SECTION 606.  MONEY HELD IN TRUST.

         Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated
from other funds except to the extent required by law.  The Trustee shall be
under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as
otherwise agreed in writing with the Company.  So long as no Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, all interest allowed on any such money
shall be paid to the Company from time to time upon receipt by the Trustee of a
Company Order except as otherwise provided in this Indenture.

SECTION 607.  COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT.

         The Company agrees

         (1)  to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as
    shall be agreed to in writing by the Company and the Trustee for all
    services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited
    by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an
    express trust);

         (2)  except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the
    Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
    advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision
    of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses
    and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense,
    disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad
    faith; and

         (3)  to indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee for,
    and to hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claim
    or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising

Event of Default specified in Section 501(6) or Section 501(7), the expenses
(including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation
for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any

to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $10,000,000. 
If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to
law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for
the purposes of this Section and to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture
Act, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its
combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition
so published.  If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in
the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

SECTION 610.  RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL; APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR.

         No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the

applicable requirements of Section 611.

         The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to
the Company.

         The Trustee may be removed at any time by Act of the Holders of a

    Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

         (2)  the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 609 and

Trustee, or (B) subject to Section 514, any Holder who has been a bona fide
Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all
others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.


                                         -42-

         If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by
Section 611 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after
(i) the giving of such notice of resignation or (ii) the removal of the Trustee
by the Company pursuant to a Board Resolution, the Trustee who has so resigned
or been removed may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee.

         If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting,
or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any reason, the
Company, by a  Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee (it
being understood that at any time there shall be only one Trustee) and shall
comply with the applicable requirements of Section 611. If, within one year
after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such
vacancy, a successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities delivered to the
Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall,
forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the
applicable requirements of Section 611, become the successor Trustee and to that
extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.  If no
successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and
accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 611, any Holder who has
been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of
himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

         The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of
the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Holders of
Securities in the manner provided in Section 106.  Each notice shall include the
name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

SECTION 611.  ACCEPTANCE OF APPOINTMENT BY SUCCESSOR.

         In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee, every
such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to
the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such
appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee
shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed
or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and
duties of the retiring Trustee; PROVIDED that, on the request of the Company or
the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges,
execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the
rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign,
transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by
such retiring Trustee hereunder.

         Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute
any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming
to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in the
preceding paragraph.

         No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time
of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under
this Article.

SECTION 612.  MERGER, CONVERSION, CONSOLIDATION OR SUCCESSION TO BUSINESS.

         Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or
with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any
corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business
of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, PROVIDED such
corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto.  In case any Securities shall have been
authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor
by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt
such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same
effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

SECTION 613.  PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY.

         If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company
(or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the
provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against
the Company (or any such other obligor).

SECTION 614.  APPOINTMENT OF AUTHENTICATING AGENT.

         The Trustee, with the prior written consent of the Company and after
giving notice of the appointment described in this Section 614 in the manner
provided in Section 106 to all Holders of Securities, may appoint an
Authenticating Agent or Agents which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the
Trustee to authenticate Securities issued upon exchange, registration of
transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 305, and the
Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture
and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the
Trustee hereunder.  Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the
authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee's
certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include
authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent
and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent.  Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the
Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the
District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent,
having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $10,000,000  and subject
to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority.  If such
Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant
to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then
for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such
Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as
set forth in its most recent report of condition so published.  If at any time
an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately
in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

         Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent
shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of
the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent,
shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, PROVIDED such corporation shall be
otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any
paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

         An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written
notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company.  The Trustee may at any time
terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof
to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company.  Upon receiving such a notice
of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating
Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give notice of such
appointment in the manner provided in Section 106 to all Holders of Securities. 
Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder
shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor
hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. 
No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the
provisions of this Section.

         The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to
time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section.

         Securities authenticated and delivered after the execution of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by
the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter

consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture
or the Securities unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders
that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in
solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

                                      COVENANTS

SECTION 1001.  PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM AND INTEREST.

         The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of
Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of and any premium
and interest on the Securities in accordance with the terms of the Securities
and this Indenture.  Principal, premium, if any, and interest shall be
considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or Paying Agent
(other than the Company or its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries) holds in accordance
with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and
interest then due and the Trustee or such Paying Agent, as the case may be, is
not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders of Securities on that date
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

SECTION 1002.  REGISTRAR AND PAYING AGENT.

         The Company shall maintain in The City of New York an office or agency
where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange
(the "Registrar") and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for
payment (the "Paying Agent").  The Registrar shall keep a register of the
Securities and of their transfer and


                                         -50-

<PAGE>

exchange.  The Company may have one or more co-registrars and one or more
additional paying agents.  The term "Paying Agent" includes any additional
paying agent.

         The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any
Registrar, Paying Agent or co-registrar not a party to this Indenture, which
shall incorporate the terms of the Trust Indenture Act.  Such agreement shall
implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent.  The
Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent.  If
the Company fails to maintain or act as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee
shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor
pursuant to Section 607.  The Company or any of its domestically incorporated
Wholly Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or
transfer agent.

         The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying
Agent in connection with the Securities.

SECTION 1003.  MONEY FOR SECURITIES PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST.

         If the Company or any of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries shall at any
time act as Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal
of or any premium or interest on any of the Securities, segregate and hold in
trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay
the principal and any premium and interest so becoming due until such sums shall
be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will
promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

         Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for the
Securities, it will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of or any
premium or interest on any Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum
sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held as provided by the Trust
Indenture Act, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will
promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

         The Company will cause each Paying Agent for the Securities other than
the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such
Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this
Section, that such Paying Agent will (1) comply with the provisions of the Trust
Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and (2) during the continuance
of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities) in the
making of any payment in respect of the Securities, upon the written request of
the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying
Agent for payment in respect of the Securities.

         The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or
by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in
trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee
upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or
such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee,
such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to
such money.

         The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Company
upon Company Request any money or securities held by them at any time in excess
of amounts required to pay principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the
Securities.

         Any money deposited with the Trustee or any other Paying Agent, or
then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of or any
premium or interest on any Security and remaining unclaimed for one year after
such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable may be paid to
the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be
discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as
an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company and the Subsidiary
Guarantors for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying
Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as
trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee or
such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at
the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in a newspaper published
in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of
general circulation in The City of New York, notice that


                                         -51-

<PAGE>

such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which
shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed
balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

SECTION 1004.  STATEMENT BY OFFICERS AS TO DEFAULT.

         The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end
of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof, an Officers'
Certificate, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof
the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms,
provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period of
grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the Company shall be
in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of
which they may have knowledge.

SECTION 1005.  EXISTENCE.

         Subject to Article Eight, the Company will do or cause to be done all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence,
rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Company shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if the
Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer
desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and that the loss
thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

SECTION 1006.  MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTIES.

         The Company will cause all properties used or useful in the conduct of
its business or the business of any Subsidiary to be maintained and kept in good
condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment
and will cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements,
betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Company may
be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be
properly and advantageously conducted at all times; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
nothing in this Section shall prevent the Company from discontinuing the
operation or maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is, in
the judgment of the Company, desirable in the conduct of its business or the
business of any Subsidiary and not disadvantageous in any material respect to
the Holders.

SECTION 1007.  PAYMENT OF TAXES AND OTHER CLAIMS.

         The Company will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged,
before the same shall become delinquent, (1) all taxes, assessments and
governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or any Subsidiary or
upon the  income, profits or property of the Company or any Subsidiary, and
(2) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might
by law become a Lien upon the property of the Company or any Subsidiary;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge or
cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose
amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings.

SECTION 1008.  LIMITATION ON COMPANY INDEBTEDNESS.

         The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness
unless no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at
the time of such Incurrence and, after giving pro forma effect to the
application of the proceeds thereof, no Default or Event of Default would occur
as a consequence of such Incurrence and either (a) after giving pro forma effect
to the Incurrence of such Indebtedness and the receipt and application of the
proceeds thereof, the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio exceeds 2.0 or (b)
such Indebtedness is Permitted Company Indebtedness.

SECTION 1009.  LIMITATION ON RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARY INDEBTEDNESS AND PREFERRED
STOCK.  

         The Company shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness or issue any Preferred Stock
unless no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at
the time of such Incurrence or issuance and, after giving pro forma effect to
the application of the proceeds thereof, no Default or Event of Default would
occur as a consequence of such Incurrence or issuance and such Indebtedness or
such Preferred Stock is Permitted Restricted Subsidiary Indebtedness or
Preferred Stock.  

SECTION 1010.  LIMITATION ON LIENS.

         The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Lien (other than a Permitted
Lien) on or with respect to any Property or assets of the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary owned on the Issue Date or thereafter acquired with the
proceeds of any Asset Sale, or any interest therein or any income or profits
therefrom, unless the Securities are secured equally and ratably with (or prior
to) any and all other obligations secured by such Lien; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
the Company and each Restricted Subsidiary may incur other Liens to secure
Indebtedness as long as the sum, without duplication, of (x) the amount of
outstanding Indebtedness secured by Liens Incurred pursuant to this proviso plus
(y) the Attributable Indebtedness with respect to all outstanding leases in
connection with Sale and Leaseback Transactions entered into pursuant to the
proviso to Section 1011 does not exceed 5% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets
as determined by reference to the consolidated balance sheet of the Company and

which financial statements are available.

SECTION 1011.  LIMITATION ON SALE AND LEASEBACK TRANSACTIONS.  

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
to, directly or indirectly, enter into any Sale and Leaseback Transaction unless
(i) the Indebtedness of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with respect
thereto would be permitted under Section 1008 or under Section 1009, (ii) the
net proceeds from such Sale and Leaseback Transaction are at least equal to the
Fair Market Value of such Property being transferred, and (iii) the net proceeds
from such Sale and Leaseback Transaction are applied in accordance with Section
1014; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter
into a Sale and Leaseback Transaction as long as the sum, without duplication,
of (x) the Attributable Indebtedness with respect to such Sale and Leaseback
Transaction and all other Sale and Leaseback Transactions entered into pursuant
to this proviso, plus (y) the amount of outstanding Indebtedness secured by

the most recent fiscal quarter for which financial statements are available.

SECTION 1012.  LIMITATION ON RESTRICTED PAYMENTS.

         The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any Restricted Payment if, at the
time of and after giving effect to the proposed Restricted Payment:

         (a) any Default or Event of Default would have occurred and be
continuing;

         (b) the Company could not Incur at least $1.00 of additional
Indebtedness pursuant to clause (a) of  Section 1008; or

         (c) the aggregate amount expended or declared for all Restricted

(i) 50% of the aggregate Consolidated Net Income of the Company (or, if
Consolidated Net Income shall be a deficit, less 100% of such deficit)
commencing on the first day of the fiscal quarter in which the Issue Date
occurs, and ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter ending on or
immediately preceding the


                                         -53-

<PAGE>

date of such Restricted Payment, (ii) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds
received by the Company on or subsequent to the Issue Date, from the issuance or
sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) of Capital Stock of the
Company, including, without limitation, Capital Stock of the Company issued upon
conversion of convertible debt or convertible Redeemable Stock or upon the
exercise of options, warrants or rights to purchase Capital Stock of the
Company, and (iii) an amount equal to the aggregate net reduction in Investments
made by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries subsequent to the Issue Date
in other Persons (other than the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries)
resulting from (A) payments of interest on debt, dividends, repayment of loans
or advances, or other transfers or distributions of Property (but only to the
extent the Company excludes such transfers or distributions from the calculation
of Consolidated Net Income for purposes of clause (i) above), in each case to
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from any such Person, or (B) the
designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary, not to
exceed, in the case of clauses (A) and (B), taken together, the amount of such
Investments previously made in such other Persons which were treated as
Restricted Payments. 

         The foregoing limitations do not prevent the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary from (a) paying a dividend on its Capital Stock within 60 days after
declaration thereof if, on the declaration date, such dividend could have been
paid in compliance with the Indenture, or (b) making Permitted Investments so
long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 

SECTION 1013.  LIMITATION ON ISSUANCE AND SALE OF CAPITAL STOCK OF RESTRICTED
SUBSIDIARIES.

         The Company will not (a) permit any Restricted Subsidiary to issue any
Capital Stock other than to the Company or one of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries
or (b) permit any Person other than the Company or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary to
own any Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company (other than
directors' qualifying shares), except, in each case, for (i) a sale of all of
the Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary owned by the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries effected in accordance with Section 1014 and (ii)
Preferred Stock permitted under Section 1009.  

SECTION 1014.  LIMITATION ON ASSET SALES.

         (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, consummate any Asset Sale after the Issue Date, unless (i) the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives
consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market
Value of the Property subject to such Asset Sale, (ii) at least 75% of the
consideration paid to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary for such
Property is in the form of cash and cash equivalents and (iii) the Company or
such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, uses the Net Cash Proceeds from
such Asset Sale in the manner set forth in clauses (b) and (c) of this Section. 

         (b) The Net Cash Proceeds, or any portion thereof, from Asset Sales
may be applied by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, to the extent the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary elects (A) to reinvest in additional
assets in the Aerospace Industry and Gas Turbine Engine Business ("Replacement
Assets") (including by means of an investment in Replacement Assets by a
Restricted Subsidiary with Net Cash Proceeds received by the Company or another
Restricted Subsidiary); and (B) to prepay, repay or purchase Indebtedness of the
Company ranking PARI PASSU to its Securities in right of payment or Indebtedness
of a Restricted Subsidiary ranking PARI PASSU to such Restricted Subsidiary's
Subsidiary Guarantee, if any, in right of payment (in each case excluding
Indebtedness owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company). 

         (c) Any Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale not applied in accordance
with clause (b) of this Section within 270 days from the date of such Asset Sale
shall constitute "Excess Proceeds." When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds
exceeds $10 million, the Company will be required to make an offer to purchase
(the "Prepayment Offer") the Securities at a purchase price in cash of at least
100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon (if any)
to the Purchase Date in accordance with the procedures (including prorating in
the event of oversubscription) set forth herein.  If the aggregate principal
amount of Securities surrendered for purchase by Holders thereof exceeds the
amount of Excess Proceeds, then the Trustee shall select the Securities to be
purchased pro rata according to principal


                                         -54-

<PAGE>

amount  with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so
that any Securities in denominations of $1,000, or integral multiples thereof,
shall be purchased.  To  the extent that any portion of the amount of Excess
Proceeds remain after compliance with the preceding sentences and PROVIDED that
all Holders of Securities have been given the opportunity to tender their
Securities for purchase as described in the clause (d) of this Section, the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may use such remaining Excess Proceeds for
general corporate purposes and the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset to
zero. 

         (d) Within five Business Days after 270 days from the date of an Asset
Sale, the Company shall, if it is obligated to apply an amount equal to any
Excess Proceeds to fund an offer to purchase the Securities, send a Prepayment
Offer Notice to the Holders of Securities. The Company shall notify the Trustee
at least 15 Business Days (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the
Trustee) prior to the mailing of the Prepayment Offer Notice of the Company's
obligation to make a Prepayment Offer, and the Prepayment Offer Notice shall be
mailed by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the Trustee in the name
and at the expense of the Company.

         The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the
requirements of Rules 13e-4 and 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other
securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and
regulations are applicable in connection with the purchase of Securities as
described above. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict with the provisions relating to a Prepayment Offer, the
Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will
not be deemed to have breached its obligations described above by virtue
thereof. 

         Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (d), if any
Security (or any portion thereof) accepted for payment shall not be so paid
pursuant to the provisions of the preceding paragraph, then, from the Purchase
Date until the date on which the principal of and premium (if any) and interest
on such Security is paid, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal and
premium (if any) and, to the extent permitted by law, on any accrued but unpaid
interest thereon, in each case, at the rate borne by such Security.

SECTION 1015.  TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.

         The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, conduct any business or enter into any
transaction or series of transactions (including, but not limited to, the sale,
transfer, disposition, purchase, exchange or lease of Property, the making of
any Investment, the giving of any Guarantee or the rendering of any service)
with or for the benefit of any Affiliate of the Company, unless (a) such
transaction or series of transactions is in the best interest of the Company or
such Restricted Subsidiary, (b) such transaction or series of transactions is on
terms which in the aggregate are no less favorable to the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary than those that could be obtained in a comparable 
arm's-length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company
or such Restricted Subsidiary and (c) with respect to a transaction or series of
transactions involving aggregate payments or other consideration to or from the
Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries having a Fair Market Value equal to or
in excess of (i) $5.0  million but less than $10.0 million, the Board of
Directors of the Company (including a majority of the disinterested members of
the Board of Directors of the Company) approves such transaction or series of
transactions and, in its good faith judgment, believes that such transaction or
series of transactions complies with clauses (a) and (b) of this paragraph, as
evidenced by a Board Resolution  or (ii) $10.0 million, (A) the Company receives
the written opinion of an independent appraisal firm or investment banking firm
nationally recognized in the United States that such transaction (or series of
transactions) is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary and (B) the Board of Directors of the Company (including a
majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company)
approves such transaction or series of transactions and, in its good faith
judgment, believes that such transaction or series of transactions complies with
clauses (a) and (b) of this paragraph, as evidenced by a Board Resolution.

SECTION 1016.  LIMITATION ON RESTRICTIONS ON DISTRIBUTIONS FROM RESTRICTED
SUBSIDIARIES.

         The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to
exist or become effective, or enter into any agreement with any Person that
would cause to become effective, any encumbrance or restriction (other than
pursuant to law or regulation) on the legal right of any Restricted Subsidiary
to (a) pay dividends, in cash or otherwise, or make any other distributions on
or in respect of its Capital Stock or Redeemable Stock, or pay any Indebtedness
or other obligation owed to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary, (b)
make any loans or advances to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary or
(c) transfer any of its property or assets to the Company or any other
Restricted Subsidiary. Such limitation will not apply to:  (i) any encumbrance
or restriction existing under certain agreements in effect on the Issue Date and
set forth in Schedule 1016 hereto; (ii) any encumbrance or restriction in
connection with an acquisition of Property, so long as such encumbrance or
restriction relates solely to the Property so acquired and was not created in
connection with or in anticipation of such acquisition; (iii) any encumbrance or
restriction existing in connection with Indebtedness permitted under the
indenture of a Restricted Subsidiary at the date on which such Restricted
Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Indebtedness Incurred by
such Restricted Subsidiary in connection with or in anticipation of its becoming
a Restricted Subsidiary, whether upon its acquisition by the Company or
otherwise); (iv) any encumbrance or restriction existing under an agreement
effecting a permitted refinancing of Indebtedness issued pursuant to an
agreement creating an encumbrance or restriction permitted by clauses (i)
through (iii) above, so long as the encumbrances and restrictions existing under
any such refinancing agreement are no more restrictive in the aggregate than the
encumbrances and restrictions existing under the agreement pursuant to which the
refinanced Indebtedness was issued; (v) customary provisions restricting
subletting or assignment of leases and customary provisions in other agreements
that restrict assignment of such agreements or rights thereunder; and (vi) any
restriction on the sale or other disposition of assets or Property securing
Indebtedness as a result of a Permitted Lien on such assets or Property.

SECTION 1017.  RESTRICTED AND UNRESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES.

         Unless defined or designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, any Person
that becomes a Subsidiary of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
shall be classified as a Restricted Subsidiary subject to the provisions of the
next paragraph. The Company may designate a Subsidiary (including a newly formed
or newly acquired Subsidiary) of the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if (i) such Subsidiary does not have
any Indebtedness or other obligations which, if in default, would result (with
the passage of time or notice or otherwise) in a default on any Indebtedness of
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and (ii)(A) such designation is
effective immediately upon such Subsidiary becoming a Subsidiary of the Company
or of a Restricted Subsidiary, or (B) the Subsidiary to be so designated has
total assets of $1,000 or less.  Except as provided in clause (ii)(B) of this
paragraph, no Restricted Subsidiary may be redesignated as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary. An Unrestricted Subsidiary may be redesignated as a Restricted
Subsidiary upon compliance with the provisions of the next paragraph, PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that once a Restricted Subsidiary has been redesignated an Unrestricted
Subsidiary, it may not thereafter be redesignated a Restricted Subsidiary. The
designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary or removal of such designation shall
be made by the Board of Directors of the Company pursuant to a Board Resolution
and shall be effective as of the date specified in the applicable certified
resolution, which shall not be prior to the date such certified resolution is
delivered to the Trustee. 

         The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, take any action or enter into any transaction or series of
transactions that would result in a Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary
(whether through an acquisition or otherwise) unless, after giving effect to
such action, transaction or series of transactions, on a pro forma basis, (i)
the Company could Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to
clause (a) of Section 1008, (ii) such Restricted Subsidiary could then Incur or
issue, pursuant to Section 1009, all Indebtedness and Preferred Stock as to
which it is obligated at such time, (iii) no Default or Event of Default would
occur or be continuing and (iv) such Restricted Subsidiary could then Incur,
pursuant to Section 1010, all Liens with respect to its Property in existence of
such time.  

SECTION 1018.  GUARANTEES OF CERTAIN INDEBTEDNESS.  


                                         -56-

<PAGE>

         The Company shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries,
directly or indirectly, to (i) Incur, Guarantee or secure through the granting
of Liens or pledge of Property the payment of any Indebtedness Incurred pursuant
to Section 1008 under clause (b) of the definition of Permitted Company
Indebtedness or under clause (i) of such definition in respect of Indebtedness
previously Incurred under such clause (b) or Section 1009 under clause (a) of
the definition of Permitted Restricted Subsidiary Indebtedness or Preferred
Stock or under clause (g) of such definition in respect of Indebtedness
previously Incurred under such clause (a) unless such Restricted Subsidiary is
then a party to this Indenture as a Subsidiary Guarantor or such Subsidiary, the
Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee execute and deliver a
supplemental indenture evidencing such Subsidiary's Subsidiary Guarantee
pursuant to the provisions of Section 1305.  Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary Guarantor shall be required to make a notation on the Securities to
reflect any such subsequent Subsidiary Guarantee.  Nothing in this Section 1018
shall be construed to permit any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to incur
Indebtedness otherwise prohibited by Section 1009 or Section 1010.  

SECTION 1019.  COMMISSION REPORTS.

         The Company shall, whether or not it is subject to Section 13(a) or
15(d) of the Exchange Act, or any successor provision thereto, file with the
Commission the annual reports, quarterly reports, and other documents which the
Company would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to such
Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or any successor provision thereto,
if the Company were subject thereto, on or prior to the respective dates (the
"Required Filing Dates") by which the Company would have been required to file
them.  The Company shall also (whether or not it is required to file reports
with the Commission), within 30 days of each Required Filing Date, file with the
Trustee, copies of the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents
(without exhibits) which the Company has filed or would have filed with the
Commission pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, any successor
provisions thereto or this Section.  The Company shall not be required to file
any report with the Commission if the Commission does not permit such filing. 
Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for
informational purposes only and the Trustee's receipt of such shall not
constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein, including
the Company's compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the
Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers' Certificates).  The Company
also shall comply with the other provisions of Section 314(a) of the Trust
Indenture Act.

SECTION 1020.  WAIVER OF CERTAIN COVENANTS.

         The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors may omit in any particular
instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in any
covenant provided pursuant to Sections 901(2) for the benefit of the Holders or
in any of Sections 1008 through 1018, inclusive, if before the time for such
compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities shall, by Act of such Holders and on behalf of the
Holders of all Securities, either waive such compliance in such instance or
generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such
waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the
extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the
obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and the duties of the
Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full
force and effect.

SECTION 1021.  MANDATORY REPURCHASE UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL.

         (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company will, in
accordance with Section 1021(b), notify each Holder, with a copy of such notice
to the Trustee, in writing of the occurrence of a Change of Control and
accompanying such notice will be an offer to purchase the Securities (a "Change
of Control Offer") at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of
purchase.

         (b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall
mail a notice to each Holder stating: (1) that a Change of Control has occurred
and a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section and that
all Securities (or portions thereof) timely tendered will be accepted for
payment; (2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be, subject
to any contrary requirements of applicable law, no earlier than 30 days nor
later than 60 days


                                         -57-

<PAGE>

from the date such notice is mailed (the "Change of Control Payment Date"); (3)
that any Security (or portion thereof) accepted for payment (and duly paid on
the Change of Control Payment Date) pursuant to the Change of Control Offer
shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date; (4)
that any Securities (or portions thereof) not tendered will continue to accrue
interest; (5) a description of the transaction or transactions constituting the
Change of Control; (6) that Holders accepting the offer to have their Securities
purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender
such Securities (or portions thereof) to the Paying Agent at the address
specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the Business Day
preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; (7) that Holders will be entitled
to withdraw their acceptance if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the
close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control
Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth
the name of the Holder, the principal amount of such Securities delivered for
purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing such Holder's election
to have such Securities (or portions thereof) purchased; (8) that Holders whose
Securities are being purchased only in part will be issued new Securities with
the Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed thereon equal in principal amount to the
unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered, provided that each Security
purchased and each such new Security issued shall be in an original principal
amount in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof; and (9) any
other procedures that Holders must follow to accept a Change of Control Offer or
effect withdrawal of such acceptance.

         (c) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall accept
for payment the Securities or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer and irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or with a
Paying Agent (or, if the Company or any of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries is
acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust) in cash an amount equal to
the purchase price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, payable to the
Holders entitled thereto, to be held for payment in accordance with the
provisions of this Section.  Holders electing to have a Security (or portion
thereof) purchased will be required to surrender the Security, with an
appropriate form duly completed, to the Company at the address specified in the
notice at the close of business on the Business Day preceding the Change of
Control Payment Date.  Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if
the Trustee or the Company receives not later than the close of business on the
third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram,
telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder,
the principal amount of the Security which was delivered for purchase by the
Holder and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such
Security (or portion thereof) purchased.

         (d) On the Change of Control  Payment Date, the Company shall deliver
to the Trustee the Securities or portions thereof which have been properly
tendered to and are to be accepted by the Company for payment together with an
Officers' Certificate identifying such Securities or portions thereof.  The
Trustee or a Paying Agent shall, on the Change of Control Payment Date, mail or
deliver payment to each tendering Holder of the purchase price of the Securities
so accepted, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate (and the Company and
the Subsidiary Guarantors shall execute) and mail to such Holder a new Security
with the Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed thereon equal in principal amount to any
unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered; PROVIDED, that each such new
Security shall be issued in an original principal amount in denominations of
$1,000 and integral multiples thereof.  In the event that the aggregate purchase
price of the Securities delivered by the Company to the Trustee is less than the
amount deposited with the Trustee, the Trustee shall deliver the excess to the
Company immediately after the Change of Control Payment Date.

         (e) The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the
requirements of Rules 13e-4 and 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other
securities laws and regulations to the extent such laws and regulations are
applicable in connection with the purchase of Securities in connection with a
Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict with the provisions relating to the Change of Control
Offer, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and
regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations described
above by virtue thereof. 

         Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if any
Security (or any portion thereof) accepted for payment shall not be so paid
pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (d), then, from the Change of Control
Payment Date until the date on which the principal of and premium (if any) and
interest on such Security is paid, interest shall be paid on the unpaid
principal and premium (if any) and, to the extent permitted by law, on any
accrued but unpaid interest thereon, in each case, at the rate borne by such
Security.

SECTION 1022.  FURTHER INSTRUMENTS AND ACTS.

         Upon request of the Trustee, the Company will execute and deliver such
further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or
proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

                                    ARTICLE ELEVEN

                               REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

SECTION 1101.  ELECTION TO REDEEM; NOTICE TO TRUSTEE.

         The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be
evidenced by a Board Resolution.   In case of any redemption at the election of
the Company of (i) less than all the Securities (including any such redemption
affecting only a single Security), the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to
the Redemption Date fixed by the Company or (ii) all the Securities, the Company
shall, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (in
either case, unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee),
notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of
Securities to be redeemed.  

SECTION 1102.  SELECTION BY TRUSTEE OF SECURITIES TO BE REDEEMED.

         If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed (unless such
redemption affects only a single security), the particular Securities to be
redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by
the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities not previously called for
redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and
which may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal
amount of any Security, PROVIDED that the unredeemed portion of the principal
amount of any Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not
be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security. 

         The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the
Securities selected for redemption as aforesaid and, in case of any Securities
selected for partial redemption as aforesaid, the principal amount thereof to be
redeemed.

         The provisions of the two preceding paragraphs shall not apply with
respect to any redemption affecting only a single Security, whether such
Security is to be redeemed in whole or in part.  In the case of any such
redemption in part, the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the
Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than
the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security.

         For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise
requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate,
in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the
portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be
redeemed.

SECTION 1103.  NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.

         Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage
prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption
Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in
the Security Register.

         All notices of redemption shall identify the Securities to be redeemed
(including CUSIP number) and state:

         (1)  the Redemption Date,



                                         -59-

<PAGE>

         (2)  the Redemption Price,

         (3)  if less than all the Outstanding Securities consisting of more
    than a single Security are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the
    case of partial redemption of any such Securities, the principal amounts)
    of the particular Securities to be redeemed and, if less than all the
    Outstanding Securities consisting of a single Security are to be redeemed,
    the principal amount of the particular Security to be redeemed,

         (4)  that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due
    and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and, if applicable, that
    interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, and

         (5)  the place or places where each such Security is to be surrendered
    for payment of the Redemption Price.

         Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of
the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the
Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company and shall be irrevocable.

SECTION 1104.  DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE.

         On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the
Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company or any of its Wholly Owned
Subsidiaries is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided
in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of,
and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued
interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.  Upon
Company Order, the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company any money
so deposited which is not required for such purpose.

SECTION 1105.  SECURITIES PAYABLE ON REDEMPTION DATE.

         Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so
to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the
Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the
Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued
interest or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to
the terms of this Indenture)  such Securities shall cease to bear interest. 
Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said
notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price,
together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption
Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more
Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the
relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of
Section 306.

         If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon
surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any premium shall, until
paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Security.

SECTION 1106.  SECURITIES REDEEMED IN PART.

         Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered
(with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the
Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing), and the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without
service charge, a new Security or Securities (in each case, with the Subsidiary
Guarantors endorsed thereon) of any authorized denomination as requested by such
Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the
unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

SECTION 1107.  PURCHASE OF SECURITIES.

         The Company shall have the right at any time and from time to time to
purchase Securities in the open market or otherwise at any price.

                          DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

SECTION 1201.  DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE.

         The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be deemed to have been
discharged from their obligations with respect to the Securities and Subsidiary
Guarantees as provided in this Section on and after the date the conditions set
forth in Section 1203 are satisfied (hereinafter called "Defeasance").  For this
purpose, such Defeasance means that (i) the Company shall be deemed to have paid
and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the Securities and to have
satisfied all its other obligations under the Securities and this Indenture
insofar as the Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the
Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same) and (ii) the
Subsidiary Guarantors shall each be released from their respective Subsidiary
Guarantees and under Article Thirteen of this Indenture, subject to the
following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged
hereunder:  (1) the rights of Holders of the Securities to receive, solely from
the trust fund described in Section 1203 and as more fully set forth in such
Section, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on
the Securities when payments are due, (2) the Company's obligations with respect
to the Securities under Sections 303, 304, 305, 1002 and 1003, (3) the rights,
powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (4) this
Article.  Subject to compliance with this Article, the Company may exercise its
option (if any) to have this Section applied to any Securities notwithstanding
the prior exercise of its option (if any) to have Section 1202 applied to the
Securities.

SECTION 1202.  COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

         (1)  The Company shall be released from its obligations under
Sections 1007 through 1017, inclusive, and 1021, and Sections 801(d) and 801(e),
and any covenants provided pursuant to Section 901(2) for the benefit of the
Holders of the Securities, and (2) the occurrence of any event specified in
Sections 501(3) (with respect to any of Sections 801(d) and 801(e), Sections
1007 through 1017, inclusive, and 1021, and any such covenants provided pursuant
to Section 901(2)), 501(4) and 501(5) shall be deemed not to be or result in an
Event of Default, in each case with respect to the Securities as provided in
this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1203 are
satisfied (hereinafter called "Covenant Defeasance").  For this purpose, such
Covenant Defeasance means that (i) the Company may omit to comply with and shall
have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in
any such specified Section (to the extent so specified in the case of
Section 501(3)), whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference
elsewhere herein to any such Section or Article or by reason of any reference in
any such Section or Article to any other provision herein or in any other
document and (ii) the Subsidiary Guarantors shall each be released under their
respective Subsidiary Guarantees and under Article Thirteen of this Indenture,
but the remainder of this Indenture and the Securities shall be unaffected
thereby.

SECTION 1203.  CONDITIONS TO DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

         The following shall be the conditions to the application of
Section 1201 or Section 1202 to the Securities:

    deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose of
    making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and
    dedicated solely to, the benefits of the Holders of the Securities, money
    in an amount, or U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof,
    which through the payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in
    accordance with their terms will


                                         -61-

<PAGE>

    provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money
    in an amount, in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a United States
    nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a
    written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and
    discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge,
    the principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities at Stated
    Maturity or on earlier redemption in accordance with the terms of this
    Indenture and the Securities.

         (2)  With respect to Section 1201, the Company shall have delivered to
    the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (a) (i) the Company
    has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue
    Service a ruling or (ii) since the date of this Indenture there has been a
    change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the
    effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that,
    the Holders of the Securities will not recognize gain or loss for Federal
    income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, Defeasance and discharge to
    be effected with respect to the Securities and will be subject to Federal
    income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as
    would have been the case if such deposit, Defeasance and discharge were not
    to occur and (b) the trust arising from such deposit will not be an
    "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
    1940 unless such trust is qualified thereunder or exempt from registration
    thereunder.

         (3)  With respect to Section 1202, the Company shall have delivered to
    the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (a) the Holders will
    not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of
    the deposit and Covenant Defeasance to be effected with respect to the
    Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts,
    in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such
    deposit and Covenant Defeasance were not to occur and (b) the trust arising
    from such deposit will not be an "investment company" within the meaning of
    the Investment Company Act of 1940 unless such trust is qualified
    thereunder or exempt from registration thereunder.

         (4)  The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
    Certificate to the effect that the Securities, if then listed on any
    securities exchange, will not be delisted as a result of such deposit.

         (5)  No Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of
    such deposit or, with regard to any such event specified in Sections 501(6)
    and 501(7), at any time on or prior to the 90th day after the date of such
    deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed
    satisfied until after such 90th day).

         (6)  Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not cause the
    Trustee to have a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust
    Indenture Act (assuming all Securities are in default within the meaning of
    such Act).

         (7)  Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a
    breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement
    or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.

         (8)  Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in the
    trust arising from such deposit constituting an investment company within
    the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940 unless such trust is
    qualified thereunder or exempt from registration thereunder.

         (9)  If the Securities are to be redeemed prior to their Stated
    Maturity, notice of such redemption shall have been duly given pursuant to
    this Indenture or provision therefor satisfactory to the Trustee shall have
    been made.

         (10)  The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
    Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
    precedent with respect to such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance have been
    complied with.

SECTION 1204.  DEPOSITED MONEY AND U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS TO BE HELD IN
TRUST; MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

         Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all
money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited
with the Trustee pursuant to Section 1203 in respect of any Securities shall be
held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of
the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through
any such Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of the
Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal
and any premium and interest, but money so held in trust need not be segregated
from other funds except to the extent required by law.

         The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee
or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations
deposited pursuant to Section 1203 or the principal and interest received in
respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for
the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities.

         Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee
shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any
money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 1203 with
respect to any Securities which, in the opinion of a United States nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written
certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount
thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the Defeasance or
Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, with respect to the Securities.

SECTION 1205.  REINSTATEMENT.

         If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in
accordance with this Article with respect to any Securities by reason of any
order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining
or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations under this
Indenture and the Securities from which the Company has been discharged or
released pursuant to Section 1201 or 1202 shall be revived and reinstated as
though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article with respect to the
Securities, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply
all money held in trust pursuant to Section 1204 with respect to the Securities
in accordance with this Article; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Company makes
any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on any Security following
such reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the
rights (if any) of the Holders of the Securities to receive such payment from
the money so held in trust.

                                   ARTICLE THIRTEEN

                                SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES

SECTION 1301.  SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES.

         Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally
unconditionally Guarantees to each Holder of a Security authenticated and
delivered by the Trustee, and to the Trustee on behalf of such Holder, the full
and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on
such Security when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the
Stated Maturity, by acceleration, call for redemption, purchase or otherwise, in
accordance with the terms of such Security and of this Indenture.  In case of
the failure of the Company punctually to make any such payment, each of the
Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agrees to cause such payment
to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether
at the Stated Maturity or by acceleration, call for redemption, purchase or
otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Company.  


                                         -63-

<PAGE>

         Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agrees
that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the
validity, regularity or enforceability of such Security or this Indenture, the
absence of any action to enforce the same, any exchange, release or 
non-perfection of any Lien on any collateral for, or any release or amendment or
waiver of any term of any other Guarantee of all or any of, the Securities, or
any consent to departure from any requirement of any other Guarantee of all or
any of the Securities, the election by the Trustee or any of the Holders in any
proceeding under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Sections 101-1330,
as amended (the "Bankruptcy Code"), of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of
the Bankruptcy Code, any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the
Company, as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, the
disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of
the claims of the Trustee or any of the Holders for payment of any of the
Securities (including, without limitation, any interest or premium thereon), any
waiver or consent by the Holder of such Security or by the Trustee with respect
to any provisions thereof or of this Indenture or with respect to the provisions
of this Article Thirteen as they apply to any other Subsidiary Guarantor, the
obtaining of any judgment against the Company or any action to enforce the same
or any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of a guarantor.  Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby
waives the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand of payment, any
requirement that the Trustee or any of the Holders protect, secure, perfect or
insure any security interest in or other Lien on any property subject thereto or
exhaust any right or take any action against the Company or any other Person,
filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the
Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest or
notice with respect to such Security or the Indebtedness evidenced thereby and
all demands whatsoever, and covenants that its Subsidiary Guarantee will not be
discharged in respect of such Security except by complete performance of the
obligations contained in such Security and in such Subsidiary Guarantee.  Each
of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agrees that, in the event of a default in
payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest on such Security, whether
at their Stated Maturity, by acceleration, call for redemption, purchase or
otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of, or
by, the Holder of such Security, subject to the terms and conditions set forth
in this Indenture, directly against all or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors to
enforce their respective Subsidiary Guarantees without first proceeding against
the Company.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that if, after the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee or any of the Holders
are prevented by applicable law from exercising their respective rights to
accelerate the maturity of the Securities, to collect interest on the
Securities, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy with respect to
the Securities, such Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to pay to the Trustee for the
account of the Holders, upon demand therefor, the amount that would otherwise
have been due and payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be
exercised by the Trustee or any of the Holders.  

         Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the
Holders of the Securities against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by
such Subsidiary Guarantor on account of such Securities pursuant to the
provisions of its Subsidiary Guarantee or this Indenture; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that no Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or to receive any
payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until the
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on all Securities issued
hereunder shall have been paid in full.  

         Each Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and
continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company
for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or make
an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be
appointed for all or any significant part of the Company's assets, and shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated,
as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Securities is,
pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be
restored or returned by an obligee on the Securities whether as a "voidable
preference," "fraudulent transfer," or otherwise, all as though such payment or
performance had not been made.  In the event that any payment, or any part
thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Securities shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by
such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.  

         No stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator, past,
present or future, of any Subsidiary Guarantor, as such, shall have any personal
liability under this Subsidiary Guarantee by reason of his, her or its status as
such stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator.


                                         -64-

    The Subsidiary Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from
any non-paying Subsidiary Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does
not impair the rights of the Holders under the Subsidiary Guarantees or under
this Article Thirteen in accordance with Section 1307.  

SECTION 1302.  EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES.

         The Subsidiary Guarantees to be endorsed on the Securities shall
include the terms of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 1301 and any
other terms that may be set forth in the form established pursuant to Section
205.  Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agrees to execute its Subsidiary
Guarantee, in a form established pursuant to Section 205, to be endorsed on each
Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee.  
         The Subsidiary Guarantee shall be executed on behalf of each
respective Subsidiary Guarantor by any one of such Subsidiary Guarantor's
Chairman of the Board, Vice Chairman of the Board, President or Vice Presidents,
attested by its Secretary or Assistant Secretary.  The signature of any or all
of these officers on the Subsidiary Guarantee may be manual or facsimile.  

         A Subsidiary Guarantee bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of
individuals who were at any time the proper officers of a Subsidiary Guarantor
shall bind such Subsidiary Guarantor, notwithstanding that such individuals or
any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and
delivery of the Security on which such Subsidiary Guarantee is endorsed or did
not hold such offices at the date of such Subsidiary Guarantee.  

         The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication
thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee
endorsed thereon on behalf of the Subsidiary Guarantors.  Each of the Subsidiary
Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set
forth in Section 1301 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any
failure to endorse a Subsidiary Guarantee on any Security.  

SECTION 1303.  SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS MAY CONSOLIDATE, ETC., ON CERTAIN TERMS. 

         Except as set forth in Section 1304 and in Articles Eight and Ten
hereof, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall
prevent any consolidation or merger of a Subsidiary Guarantor with or into the
Company or another Subsidiary Guarantor or shall prevent any sale or conveyance
of the property of a Subsidiary Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an
entirety to the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor.  

SECTION 1304.  RELEASE OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS.

         (a)  Concurrently with any consolidation or merger of a Subsidiary
Guarantor or any sale or conveyance of the Property or assets of a Subsidiary
Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, in each case as
permitted by Section 1303 hereof, and upon delivery by the Company to the
Trustee of an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that
such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance was made in accordance with
Section 1303 hereof, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably required
in order to evidence the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its
obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed on the Securities and under
this Article Thirteen.  Any Subsidiary Guarantor not released from its
obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed on the Securities and under
this Article Thirteen shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of
(and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities and for the other
obligations of a Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee endorsed on
the Securities and under this Article Thirteen. 

         (b)  Concurrently with the defeasance of the Securities under Section
1201 hereof or the covenant defeasance of the Securities under Section 1202
hereof, the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be released from all of their
obligations under their Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed on the Securities and
under this Article Thirteen.  
         (c)  Upon the sale or disposition (by merger or otherwise) of any
Subsidiary Guarantor by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company
to any entity that is not a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and which sale
or


                                         -65-

<PAGE>

disposition is otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture,
including, without limitation, Section 801 and Section 1014 of this Indenture,
such Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from all obligations
under its Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed on the Securities and under this
Article Thirteen, PROVIDED THAT such Subsidiary Guarantor is sold or disposed of
for fair market value (evidenced by a Board Resolution and set forth in an
Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee).  

         (d)  Upon the redesignation by the Company of a Subsidiary Guarantor
from Restricted Subsidiary to an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with the
provisions of this Indenture, including, without limitation, Section 1017 of
this Indenture, such Subsidiary may, at its option, cease to be a Subsidiary
Guarantor and shall be released from all of the obligations of a Subsidiary
Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantees endorsed on the Securities and under
this Article Thirteen, which release shall be evidenced by a supplemental
indenture executed by the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee.  

SECTION 1305.  ADDITIONAL SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS.

         The Company may cause any Subsidiary to become a Subsidiary Guarantor
with respect to the Securities.  Any such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary
Guarantor by executing and delivering to the Trustee (a) a supplemental
indenture, in form and substance satisfactory to, and executed by, the Trustee
and executed by the Company, which subjects such Subsidiary to the provisions of
this Indenture as a Subsidiary Guarantor and (b) an Opinion of Counsel to the
effect that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized and executed by
such Subsidiary and constitutes the legal, valid, binding and enforceable
obligation of such Subsidiary (subject to such customary exceptions concerning
creditors' rights and equitable principles as may be reasonably acceptable to
the Trustee in its discretion). 

SECTION 1306.  LIMITATION OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR'S LIABILITY.

         Each Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance hereof each Holder,
hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee
by such Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to its Subsidiary Guarantee not constitute
a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code, the
Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any
similar Federal or state law.  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the
Holders and such Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the
obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee shall be
limited to the maximum amount as will,  after giving effect to all other
contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor and after giving
effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other
Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary
Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or pursuant to Section 1307,  result in
the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not
constituting such a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.  

SECTION 1307.  CONTRIBUTION.

         In order to provide for just and equitable contribution among the
Subsidiary Guarantors, the Subsidiary Guarantors agree, INTER SE, that in the
event any payment or distribution is made by any Subsidiary Guarantor (a
"Funding Subsidiary Guarantor") under the Guarantee, and so long as the exercise
of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Subsidiary
Guarantees or under this Article Thirteen, such Funding Subsidiary Guarantor
shall be entitled to a contribution from all other Subsidiary Guarantors in a
PRO RATA amount, based on the net assets of each Subsidiary Guarantor (including
the Funding Subsidiary Guarantor), determined in accordance with GAAP, subject
to Section 1306, for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by that Funding
Subsidiary Guarantor in discharging the Company's obligations with respect to
the Securities or any other Subsidiary Guarantor's obligations with respect to
its Subsidiary Guarantee.

         Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee
promptly an Officers' Certificate listing and identifying all Securities, if
any, known by the Company to be owned or held by or for the account of the
Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors or any other obligor on the Securities or by
any Affiliate of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other obligor on
the Securities; and, subject to the provisions of Section 601, the Trustee shall
be entitled to accept such Officers' Certificate as conclusive evidence of the
facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Securities not listed therein
are Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination.

SECTION 1402.  REVOCATION OF CONSENTS; FUTURE HOLDERS BOUND.

         At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as
provided in Section 104, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the
percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities specified in this
Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Security, except as
provided in Section 104 with respect to record dates, the serial number of which
is shown by the evidence to be included in the Securities the Holders of which
have consented to or are bound by consents to such action may, by filing written
notice with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office and upon proof of holding
as provided in Section 104, revoke such action so far as concerns such Security.

                                   ARTICLE FIFTEEN 

                                  HOLDERS' MEETINGS

    Securities under any other provision of this Indenture or under applicable
    law.

SECTION 1502.  CALL OF MEETINGS BY TRUSTEE.

         The Trustee may at any time call a meeting of Holders of Securities to
take any action specified in Section 1501, to be held at such time and at such
place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, as the Trustee shall
determine.  Notice of every meeting of the Holders of Securities, setting forth
the time and the place of such meeting and in general terms the action proposed
to be taken at such meeting, shall be mailed to all Holders of Securities at
their addresses as they shall appear on the Security Register.  Such notice
shall be mailed not less than 20 nor more than


                                         -67-

<PAGE>

180 days prior to the date fixed for the meeting (or, in the case of a meeting
of Holders with respect to the Securities all or part of which are represented
by a Global Security, not less than 20 nor more than 40 days).

         Upon the calling of a meeting of Holders with respect to the
Securities all or part of which are represented by a Global Security, a record
date shall be established for determining Holders of Outstanding Securities
entitled to vote at such meeting, which record date shall be the close of
business on the day the Trustee mails the notice of the Meeting of Holders.  The
Holders on such record date, and their designated proxies, and only such
Persons, shall be entitled to vote at such meeting of Holders.

SECTION 1503.  CALL OF MEETINGS BY COMPANY OR HOLDERS.

         In case at any time the Company, pursuant to a resolution of its Board
of Directors, or the Holders, or their designated proxies, of at least 25% in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, shall have requested
the Trustee to call a meeting of the Holders, by written request setting forth
in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at the meeting and the
Trustee shall not have mailed the notice of such meeting within 20 days after
receipt of such request, then the Company or such Holders may determine the time
and the place in said Borough of Manhattan for such meeting and may call such
meeting to take any action authorized in Section 1501, by mailing notice thereof
as provided in Section 1502.

SECTION 1504.  QUALIFICATIONS FOR VOTING.

         To be entitled to vote at any meeting of Holders a Person shall (a) be
a Holder of one or more Securities or (b) be a Person appointed by an instrument
in writing as proxy by a Holder of one or more Securities; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that in the case of any meeting of Holders with respect to the Securities all or
part of which are represented by a Global Security, only Holders, or their
designated proxies, of record of Outstanding Securities on the record date
established pursuant to Section 1502 hereof shall be entitled to vote at such
meeting.  The only Persons who shall be entitled to be present or to speak at
any meeting of Holders shall be the Persons entitled to vote at such meeting and
their counsel and any representatives of the Trustee and its counsel and any
representatives of the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors' and their respective
counsel.

SECTION 1505.  REGULATIONS.

         Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee
may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for any meeting of
Holders, in regard to proof of the holding of Securities and of the appointment
of proxies, and in regard to the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes,
the submission and examination of proxies, certificates and other evidence of
the right to vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting
as it shall think fit.  Except as otherwise permitted or required by any such
regulation, the holding of Securities shall be proved in the manner specified in
Section 104 and the appointment of any proxy shall be proved in the manner
specified in said Section 104 or by having the signature of the Person executing
the proxy witnessed or guaranteed.

         The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary
chairman and a temporary secretary of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have
been called by the Company or by Holders as provided in Section 1503, in which
case the Company or the Holders calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall
in like manner appoint a temporary chairman and a temporary secretary.  A
permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the meeting shall be elected by
the Persons holding or representing a majority of the Outstanding Securities
represented at the meeting.

         Subject to the provisions of Section 1504, at any meeting each Holder
or proxy shall be entitled to one vote for each $1,000 principal amount of
Securities held or represented by him; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no vote shall be
cast or counted at any meeting in respect of any Security challenged as not
Outstanding and ruled by the permanent chairman (or the temporary chairman, if
no permanent chairman shall have been elected pursuant to this Section) of the
meeting


                                         -68-

<PAGE>

to be not Outstanding.  Neither the temporary chairman nor the permanent
chairman of the meeting shall have a right to vote other than by virtue of
Securities held by him or instruments in writing as aforesaid duly designating
him as the Person to vote on behalf of other Holders.  Any meeting of Holders
duly called pursuant to the provisions of Section 1502 or 1503 may be adjourned
from time to time by the Persons holding or representing a majority of the
Securities represented at the meeting, whether or not constituting a quorum, and
the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice.

         At any meeting of the Holders of Securities a quorum shall consist of
Holders present in person or by proxy and representing at least 25% in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities.  If a quorum of the Holders of Securities
shall not be present within 30 minutes from the time fixed for holding any
meeting, the meeting, if summoned by the Holders or pursuant to a request of the
Holders, shall be dissolved; but in any other case the meeting shall be
adjourned to the same day in the next week (unless such day is a Legal Holiday
in which case it shall be adjourned to the next following day thereafter that is
not a Legal Holiday) at the same time and place and no notice shall be required
to be given in respect of such adjourned meeting.  At the adjourned meeting the
Holders of Securities present in person or by proxy shall form a quorum and may
transact the business for which the meeting was originally convened
notwithstanding that they may not represent 25% of the principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities.

SECTION 1506.  VOTING.

         The vote upon any resolutions submitted to any meeting of Holders
shall be by written ballots on which shall be subscribed the signatures of the
Holders of Securities or of their representatives by proxy.  The permanent
chairman (or the temporary chairman, if no permanent chairman shall have been
elected pursuant to Section 1505) of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of
votes who shall count all votes cast at the meeting for or against any
resolution and who shall make and file with the permanent secretary (or the
temporary secretary, if no permanent secretary shall have been elected pursuant
to Section 1505) of the meeting their verified written reports in duplicate of
all votes cast at the meeting.  A record in duplicate of the proceedings of each
meeting of Holders shall be prepared by the permanent secretary (or the
temporary secretary, if no permanent secretary shall have been elected pursuant
to Section 1505) of the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the
original reports of the inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat
and affidavits by one or more persons having knowledge of the facts setting
forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that said notice was
mailed as provided in Section 1502.  The record shall be signed and verified by
the affidavits of the permanent chairman and the permanent secretary of the
meeting (or if no permanent chairman and/or permanent secretary shall have been
elected pursuant to Section 1505, then the temporary chairman and/or the
temporary secretary, as the case may be, shall take such action) and one of the
duplicates shall be delivered to the Company and the other to the Trustee to be
preserved by the Trustee, the latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted
at the meeting.

         Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the
matters therein stated.

SECTION 1507.  NO DELAY OF RIGHTS BY MEETING.

         Nothing in this Article Fifteen contained shall be deemed or construed
to authorize or permit, by reason of any call of a meeting of Holders or any
rights expressly or impliedly conferred hereunder to make such call, any
hindrance or delay in the exercise of any right or rights conferred upon or
reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders under any of the provisions of this
Indenture or of the Securities.

Guarantee, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, shall

successor corporation or Person of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor, either

obligations, covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture or in any of
the Securities or Subsidiary Guarantees or implied therefrom, are hereby
expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the
execution of this Indenture and the issue of such Securities and Subsidiary
Guarantees.

SECTION 1602.  EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS.

         This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, 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.

          4.   SALES OF COLLATERAL.

               4.1   PROCEDURES.

                     (A) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
any of the Agreements:

                     (1) If a "default", "incipient event of default" or "event

appraisal of the orderly liquidation value of the (x) Receivables and Inventory

                     (4) If either Agent or Trustee accelerates the Obligations
under the respective Agreements, the applicable Creditor shall provide the other
with written notice of such acceleration within two (2) business days thereof
("Acceleration").

                     (5) In the event that an Acceleration has occurred within
(90) days of the receipt of an Appraisal and Confidence Letter, and the
Collections to be received for the Collateral as described in the Confidence
Letter would exceed the amount of the Appraisal applicable to the Receivables
and Inventory, then the Agent and Trustee shall engage the aforementioned
investment bank to solicit and obtain, within 60 days of the Acceleration, a
signed letter of intent for the sale of the Collateral and the other issued and
outstanding capital stock of Caledonian ("Letter of Intent").  The Letter of
Intent shall be from a reputable purchaser, require a closing of the sale within
90 days of its execution, be subject to no contingencies other than customary
conditions precedent such as satisfactory due diligence results and the
execution of acquisition agreements acceptable to all parties and shall not
provide for a financing contingency.

                     (6) (A)  In the event that an Acceleration has occurred
more than 90 days after the receipt of an Appraisal and Confidence Letter, the
Agent and the Trustee shall engage the aforementioned appraiser and investment
bank to update the Appraisal and the Confidence Letter with respect to the asset
valuations and financial statements of Engine (the "Updates"). The Updates shall
be received within 30 days of the Acceleration and, if the Collections to be
received for the Collateral as described therein would exceed the amount of the
Appraisal applicable to the Receivables and the Inventory, a Letter of Intent as
described in clause (5) above shall be obtained within 60 days of the
Acceleration.

                         (B)  In the event that no Appraisal and/or Confidence
Letter has been received prior to the occurrence of an Acceleration, the Agent
and the Trustee shall then engage (a) an appraiser to conduct an Appraisal and
(b) an investment banker to issue a Confidence Letter in accordance with
provisions of subclause (3).  Each of the foregoing must be delivered within
thirty (30) days of the Acceleration.

                     (7) In the event that (a) the Appraisal, the Confidence
Letter and/or any Updates thereof are not received within the respective
required time periods or (b) if the proceeds applicable to the Receivables and
Inventory as set forth in the Appraisal or any Update thereof exceed the
proceeds to be received for the Collateral as described in the Confidence
Letter, any Update thereof or any Letter of Intent, as the case


                                       -7-
<PAGE>


may be, Agent shall be entitled to commence Secured Party Remedies and remedies
under the Loan Agreement with respect to the Inventory and the Collateral.  At
no time however, shall Agent be prohibited from exercising its remedies as a
secured party with respect to the Receivables.  Thereafter, Agent shall use its
best efforts to liquidate the Collateral, PROVIDED, it shall have no liability
to the Creditors for any failure to do so.

                     (8) All proceeds received from the sale of the Collateral
shall be distributed to the Creditors as follows:  (i) first, all costs and
expenses incurred by Collateral Agent under this Agreement, (ii) second, to
Agent to the extent of the book value of the Receivables and Inventory of
Caledonian up to an amount equal to the Loan Obligations, and (iii) third, to
Agent and the Trustee on a pro rata basis based upon the remaining outstanding
obligations of Borrowers' to Agent, Lenders and the Holders under the
Agreements.

          (B) In the event of a sale or other disposition of the Collateral and
the other issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Caledonian by
Engine, the proceeds of such sale shall be distributed to the Creditors in the
same manner as set forth in Section 4.1(8) above.  This Section shall not,
however, be deemed to be a consent by either Creditor to the sale or other
disposition of the Collateral by Engine.

               4.2   SALE OF COLLATERAL.  In the event that Collateral Agent
shall enforce its lien in the Collateral pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any of the Agreements,
only Collateral Agent shall have the right to restrict or permit, or approve or
disapprove, the sale, transfer or other disposition of Collateral.  Trustee and
Agent will, immediately upon the request of Collateral Agent, release or
otherwise terminate their respective Liens upon the Collateral, to the extent
such Collateral is sold or otherwise disposed of either by Collateral Agent or
any Borrower with the consent of Collateral Agent, and Trustee and Agent will
immediately deliver such release documents as Collateral Agent may require in
connection therewith.

               4.3   LIABILITY OF INVESTMENT BANK.  No investment bank issuing a
Confidence Letter shall have any liability to Agent or Trustee for the opinions
rendered in the Confidence Letter so long as they have been issued in good faith
notwithstanding a failure to obtain a Letter of Intent for an amount at least
equal to that set forth in the Confidence Letter.

               4.4   SECTION 9-504 NOTICE AND WAIVER OF MARSHALING.  The Trustee
and Agent acknowledge that this Agreement shall constitute notice of their
respective interests

          5.   MISCELLANEOUS.

               5.1   SURVIVAL OF RIGHTS.  The right of Collateral Agent to
enforce the provisions of this Agreement shall not be prejudiced or impaired by
any act or omitted act of Caledonian, Borrowers, Agent or Trustee, including
forbearance, waiver, consent, compromise, amendment, extension, renewal, or
taking or release of security in respect of any Obligations or noncompliance by
Caledonian, Borrowers or Subsidiary Guarantors with such provisions, regardless

reimburse and indemnify Collateral Agent in proportion to the Obligations owing
to them by Borrowers for and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred
by or asserted against Collateral Agent in performing its duties hereunder or in
any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any Agreement, other
than as a consequence of bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of
Collateral Agent.

               (b)   Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the
event that, at any time, whether during or after the term of this Agreement, any
action or proceeding shall be brought against Collateral Agent by any Borrower
or by any other person claiming by, through or under any Borrower or otherwise,
which action shall be to recover damages for any act taken or omitted by
Collateral Agent under any Agreement or in the performance of any rights, powers
or remedies of Collateral Agent against any Borrower, the Collateral or with
respect to the Obligations, or which action or proceeding shall be for any other
relief of any kind, arising directly or indirectly out of any transaction
between Collateral Agent and Borrowers under or in relation to any Agreement,
each of the Creditors agrees to indemnify and hold harmless with respect thereto
and to pay to Collateral Agent its pro rata  share of such amount as Collateral
Agent shall be required to pay by reason of a judgment, decree, or other order
entered in such action or proceeding or by reason of any compromise or
settlement agreed to by Collateral Agent, including, without limitation, all
interest and costs assessed against Collateral Agent in defending or
compromising such action, together with attorneys' fees and other legal expenses
paid or incurred by Collateral Agent in connection therewith other than in
connection with any action or proceeding arising as a consequence of actual bad
faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of Collateral Agent.
In Collateral Agent's reasonable discretion, Collateral Agent may also, to the
extent Collateral Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder, reserve for
and/or satisfy any such judgment, decree or order from Collections prior to any
distributions therefrom to or for the account of the Creditors.

                  accordance with Clause 6(3)(a), to the intent that nothing
                  contained herein or in any other Agreements shall give or is
                  intended to have the effect of giving control of Greenwich
                  Caledonian Limited to the Agent or the Lenders, otherwise than
                  on enforcement of this security.

(4)         The Agent may after notifying the Company and Pledgor of its
            intention to do so, but shall not be obliged to, pay any calls or
            other sums that may be or become due in respect of any of the
            securities for the time being the subject of this Deed (including,
            without limitation, the Pledged Securities) and the Company and
            Pledgor undertakes to pay to the Agent on written demand to the
            Company and Pledgor such sums so paid by the Agent together with
            interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of demand by the
            Agent to the date of payment by the Company and Pledgor.  Such sums
            and interest shall be secured by this Deed.

7.          LIABILITY TO PERFORM

            It is expressly agreed that, notwithstanding anything to the
            contrary herein contained, the Company and Pledgor shall remain
            liable to observe and perform all of the conditions and obligations
            assumed by it in respect of the Pledged Securities and due Agent
            shall be under no obligation or liability by reason of or arising
            out of this Deed.  The Agent shall not be required in any manner to
            perform or fulfill any obligations of the Company and Pledgor in
            respect of the Pledged Securities.

8.          ENFORCEMENT

(1)         At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
            Event of Default then, if and for so long as the Agent is, or is
            entitled to be registered as the holder of the Pledged Securities in
            the register of members of Greenwich Caledonian Limited this
            security may be enforced, subject to the provisions of the Sharing
            Agreement in the following manner [STANDSTILL?]:

            (a)   the Agent shall become entitled to sell, call in, collect or
                  convert into money any Pledged Securities with full power on
                  giving notice to the Company and Pledgor to such effect to
                  sell any of the same either together or in parcels and either
                  by public auction or private contract and for such
                  consideration (whether in cash, securities or other assets and
                  whether deferred or not) as the Agent may think fit and with
                  full power to buy in or rescind or vary any contract of sale
                  of Pledged Securities or any part thereof and to resell the
                  same without being responsible for any loss which may be
                  occasioned thereby and with full power to compromise and
                  effect compositions and for the purposes aforesaid or any of
                  them to execute and do all such assurances and things as it
                  shall think fit;


                                     -6-
<PAGE>



            (b)   the Agent shall become entitled to apply all or any monies
                  received or held by it in respect of the Pledged Securities in
                  respect of the exercise of any of its rights in relation
                  thereto in accordance with Clause 9; and

            (c)   the Company and Pledgor shall on demand execute and do all
                  such transfers, assurances and things which the Agent may
                  require for perfecting its title to any Pledged Securities or
                  for vesting the same in the Agent or its nominees or any
                  purchaser.

(2)         After this security has become enforceable:

            (a)   all rights of the Company and Pledgor to exercise the voting
                  rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise and to
                  receive the dividends and other payments which it would
                  otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to
                  Clause 6(b) shall cease, and, if and so long as the Agent is,
                  or is entitled to be, registered as the holder of the Pledged
                  Securities in the register of members of Greenwich Caledonian
                  Limited all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the
                  Agent which shall have the sole right to exercise such voting
                  rights and to receive and hold as Pledged Securities such
                  dividends and interest payments; and

            (b)   all dividends and other payments which are received by the
                  Company and Pledgor contrary to the provisions of Clause
                  8(2)(a) shall, if and for so long as the Agent is entitled to
                  be registered as the holder of the Pledged Securities in the
                  register of members of Greenwich Caledonian Limited, be
                  received in, and be declared by the Company and Pledgor to be
                  subject to a trust for the benefit of the Agent, and shall be
                  segregated from other funds of the Company and Pledgor and
                  forthwith be paid over to the Agent,

to the intent that the Agent shall be entitled to exercise such rights and
receive such payments only for the purpose of protecting or enforcing the
security constituted hereby.

(3)         The Agent shall incur no liability to the Company and Pledgor in the
            event of an overrealization of Pledged Securities or any of them or
            from any error or omission in the administration thereof.

9.          APPLICATION OF ENFORCEMENT MONIES



                                     -7-
<PAGE>



(1)         All monies received by the Agent under or by virtue of this Deed
            following enforcement of the security hereby granted shall be
            applied, subject to the claim of any creditors ranking in priority
            to or PAR PASSU with the claims of the Agent hereunder, in manner
            set out in the Sharing Agreement.

(2)         Nothing contained in this Deed shall limit the right of the Agent
            (and the Company and Pledgor acknowledges that the Agent is so
            entitled) if and for so long as the Agent, in its discretion shall
            consider it appropriate, to place all or any monies arising from the
            enforcement of the security hereby granted into a suspense account,
            without any obligation to apply the same or any part thereof in or
            towards the discharge of any Secured Obligation.

10.         RECONVEYANCE

            Upon payment in full of all Secured Obligations, the Agent shall
            transfer to the Company and Pledgor at the Company's and Pledgor's
            expense, and the Company and Pledgor shall accept the transfer of,
            all Pledged Securities then held by or to the order of the Agent and
            the Agent shall co-operate in procuring the registration of such
            Pledged Securities in the name of the Company and Pledgor or as it
            shall direct.

11.         PROTECTION OF SECURITY

(1)         The security created by this Deed shall be a continuing security
            notwithstanding any settlement of account or other matter or thing
            whatsoever, and in particular (but without prejudice to the
            generality of the foregoing) shall not be considered satisfied by an
            intermediate repayment or satisfaction of part only of the Secured
            Obligations and shall continue in full force and effect until total
            and irrevocable satisfaction of all the Secured Obligation.

(2)         The security created by this Deed shall be in addition to and shall
            not in any way prejudice or be prejudiced by any collateral or other
            security, right or remedy which the Agent may now or at any time
            hereafter hold for all or any part of the Secured Obligations.

(3)         No failure on the part of the Agent or any Lender to exercise and no
            delay on its part in exercising any right, remedy, power or
            privilege under or pursuant to this Deed or any other document
            relating to or securing all or any part of the Secured Obligations
            will operate


                                     -8-
<PAGE>



            as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any
            right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
            the exercise of any other right or remedy.  The rights and remedies
            provided in this Deed and any such other document are cumulative and
            not exclusive of any right or remedies provided by law.

(4)         Each of the provisions in this Deed shall be severable and distinct
            from one another and if at any time any one or more of such
            provisions is or becomes or is declared null and void, invalid,
            illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any law or otherwise
            howsoever the validity, legality and unenforceability of the
            remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or
            impaired thereby.

(5)         If any of the Agent, the Lender, the Note Trustee or the Note
            Holders receives or is deemed to be affected by notice whether
            actual or constructive of any subsequent security or other interest
            affecting any part of the Pledged Securities and/or the proceeds or
            sale thereof, any of the Agent, the Lender, the Note Trustee or the
            Note Holders may open a new account or accounts with the Company and
            Pledgor.  If the Agent or such Lenders does not open a new account
            it shall nevertheless be treated as if it had done so at the time
            when it received or was deemed to have received notice and as from
            that time all payments made to the Agent or such Lender, the Note
            Trustee or the Note Holder shall be credited or be treated as having
            been credited to the new account and shall not operate to reduce the
            amount for which this Deed is security.

(6)         Neither the security created by this Deed nor the rights, powers,
            discretions and remedies conferred upon the Agent by this Deed or by
            law shall be discharged, impaired or otherwise affected by reason
            of:

            (a)   any present or future security, guarantee, indemnity or other
                  right or remedy held by or available to any of Agent, the
                  Lenders, the Note Trustee or the Note Holders being or
                  becoming wholly or in part void, voidable or unenforceable on
                  any ground whatsoever or by any of Agent, the Lenders, the
                  Note Trustee or the Note Holders from time to time exchanging,
                  varying, realizing, releasing or failing to perfect or enforce
                  any of the same; or

            (b)   the Agent or any Lender or the Note Trustee or any Note Holder
                  compounding with, discharging or releasing or varying the
                  liability of, or granting


                                     -9-
<PAGE>



                  any time, indulgence or concession to, the Company and Pledgor
                  or any other person or renewing, determining, varying or
                  increasing any accommodation or transaction in any manner
                  whatsoever or concurring in accepting or varying any
                  compromise, arrangement or settlement or omitting to claim or
                  enforce payment from the Company and Pledgor or any other
                  person; or

            (c)   any act or omission which would not have discharged or
                  affected the liability of the Company and Pledgor had it been
                  a principal debtor instead of cautioner or by anything done or
                  omitted which but for this provision might operate to
                  exonerate the Company and Pledgor from the Secured
                  Obligations; or

            (d)   any legal limitation, disability, incapacity or other similar
                  circumstance relating to the Company and Pledgor.

(7)         The Agent shall not be obliged, before exercising any of the rights,
            powers or remedies conferred upon it by or pursuant to this Deed or
            by law, to:

            (a)   take any action or obtain judgment or decree in any Court
                  against the Company and Pledgor;

            (b)   make or file any claims to rank in a winding-up or liquidation
                  of the Company and Pledgor; or

            (c)   enforce or seek to enforce any other security taken, or
                  exercise any right or plea available to the Agent, in respect
                  of any of the Company's and Pledgor's obligations under any
                  document other than this Deed.

12.         FURTHER ASSURANCE

            The Company and Pledgor shall execute and do all such assurances,
            acts and things as the Agent may require for perfecting or
            protecting the security created by or pursuant to this Deed over the
            Pledged Securities or for facilitating the realization of such
            rights and the exercise of all powers, authorities and discretions
            vested in the Agent, and shall, in particular, on demand forthwith
            sign, seal, execute, deliver and complete all transfers,
            assignments, renunciations, mandates, instructions, deeds and
            documents of every kind and do or cause to be done, all acts and
            things of every kind which the Agent may specify by written notice
            to the Company and Pledgor to perfect the interest of the Agent or
            to


                                     -10-

            Securities in the Agent or the nominees of the Agent, or to enable
            the Agent to sell or dispose of the Pledged Securities or otherwise
            to enforce or exercise any rights or powers under or in connection
            with its security.

13.         MANDATE AND ATTORNEY

(1)         The Company and Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints the Agent to be
            its mandatory and attorney for it and on its behalf and in its name
            or otherwise and as its act or deed to create or constitute, or to
            make any alteration or addition or deletion in or to, any documents
            which the Agent may require for perfecting or protecting the title
            of the Agent to the Pledged Securities or for vesting any of the
            Pledged Securities in the Agent or its nominees or any purchaser and

received by Agent which preceded the making of such Advances and the proceeds of
Collateral received by Agent with respect to such Borrower such determination by
Agent with respect to the foregoing shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

       2.2    NOTES.  The Advances shall be evidenced by amended and restated
promissory notes of the Borrowers, substantially in the form of EXHIBIT 2.2 (the
"Notes") with appropriate insertion as to date and principal amount, payable to
the order of each Lender in an amount equal to its respective Commitment
Percentage of Receivable Advances.

       C\7    PROCEDURE FOR BORROWING.

              (a)    In the event any Borrower desires to obtain a Domestic Rate
Loan Greenwich on behalf of Borrowers shall give Agent at least one (1) Business
Days  prior telephonic notice ("Advance Request") on or before 11:00 A.M., New
York time (except as may be set forth below) specifying (i) the date of the
proposed borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (ii) the type of
borrowing and the amount to be borrowed, which amount on the date of such
Advance shall be in a minimum amount of $250,000 and in integral multiples of
$100,000 for borrowings in excess thereof.  In addition, as a convenient means
of effecting Advances, Borrowers will each maintain a controlled disbursement
account (business checking) with the Bank at its branch located at 1290 6th
Avenue, New York, New York 10104 (collectively, "Checking Accounts").  Each
Checking Account will act as a corporate payable account for such Borrower.
Once each Business Day following receipt by the Bank of its Federal Reserve
system clearing (which may be later than 11:00 a.m. New York time but must be
earlier than 1:00 p.m. New York time), Bank will notify Agent of the total
dollar amount of checks presented to Bank for payment for each Checking Account
since the previous Business Day's notification (the "Payable Amount").  Such
notification shall be


                                      -28-
<PAGE>

deemed to be an Advance Request for an Advance to be made on such Business Day
to the respective Borrower's Checking Account in an amount equal to the Payable
Amount, but Agent and Lenders shall not be obligated to honor such Advance
Request except as herein specifically required.  Any request for an Advance
shall be deemed reduced automatically and without notice so as not to be in
excess of, after giving effect to the requested Advance, an amount which would
cause the aggregate amount of all Advances to be greater than the lesser of (a)
for Greenwich, (i) the Maximum Loan Amount MINUS outstanding Advances made to
Turbine, GTI, Components, GASI and Engine Services or (ii) the Greenwich Formula
Amount, (b) for Turbine, (i) the Maximum Loan Amount MINUS outstanding Advances
made to Greenwich, GTI, Components, GASI and Engine Services or (ii) the Turbine
Formula Amount (c) for GTI, (i) the Maximum Loan Amount MINUS outstanding
Advances made to Greenwich, Turbine, Components, GASI and Engine Services or
(ii) the GTI Formula Amount, (d) for Components, (i) the Maximum Loan Amount
MINUS outstanding Advances made to Greenwich, GTI, Turbine, GASI and Engine
Services or (ii) the Components Formula Amount, (e) for GASI, (i) the Maximum
Loan Amount MINUS outstanding Advances made to Greenwich, GTI, Turbine,
Components and Engine Services or (ii) the GASI Formula Amount, and (f) for
Engine Services, (i) the Maximum Loan Amount MINUS outstanding Advances made to
Greenwich, GTI, Turbine, GASI and Components or (ii) the Engine Services Formula
Amount.  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.7 hereof, the proceeds of each
Advance shall be made available by Agent to Borrowers on or before 1:45 p.m.,
New York time (except with respect to Advances to the Checking Accounts which
shall be made available on or before 1:45 p.m. New York time), on the Business
Day specified in the Advance Request by wire transferring immediately available
funds in such amount or causing immediately available funds in such amount to be
wire transferred to the account of the applicable Borrower, as shall be
designated to Agent in the Advance Request therefor.

              (b)    Notwithstanding the provisions of 2.3(a) above, in the
event any Borrower desires to obtain a Eurodollar Rate Loan, Greenwich on behalf
of such Borrower shall give Agent at least three (3) Business Days' prior
written notice specifying (i) the date of the proposed borrowing (which shall be
a Business Day), (ii) the type of borrowing and the amount to be borrowed, which
amount on the date of such Advance shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000
and in integral multiples of $100,000 for borrowings in excess thereof and (iii)
the duration of the first Interest Period therefor.  Interest Periods for
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be for 30, 60 or 90 days.  Notwithstanding anything
contained herein, no Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be made (i) until the later to
occur of (x) ninety (90) days following the Effective Date or (y) the date on
which the Commitment Percentages of all Lenders (other than BNYCC) shall
aggregate _____%, (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an
Event of Default and (iii) if after giving effect to such Eurodollar Rate Loan
more than six (6) shall be outstanding at such time.


                                      -29-
<PAGE>

              (c)    Each Interest Period of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall
commence on the date such Eurodollar Rate Loan is made and shall end on such
date as Borrowers may elect as set forth in (b)(iii) above provided that:

                     (i)    any Interest Period which would otherwise end on a
day which is not a Business Day shall end on the next preceding or succeeding
Business Day as is the Bank's custom in the market to which such Eurodollar Rate
Loan relates;

                     (ii)     no Interest Period shall end after the last day of
the Term;

                     (iii)  any Interest Period which begins on a day for which
there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month during which
such Interest Period is to end, shall (subject to clause (i) above) end on the
last day of such calendar month.

       The Borrowers shall elect the initial Interest Period applicable to a
Eurodollar Rate Loan by Greenwich's notice of borrowing (on behalf of the
Borrowers) given to Agent pursuant to Section 2.3(b) or by its notice of
conversion given to Agent pursuant to Section 2.3(d), as the case may be.
Greenwich on behalf of Borrowers shall elect the duration of each succeeding
Interest Period by giving irrevocable written notice to Agent of such duration
not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the last day of the then current
Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan.  If Agent does not
receive timely notice of the Interest Period elected by Greenwich on behalf of
Borrowers, Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert to a Domestic
Rate Loan subject to Section 2.3(d) hereinbelow.

              (d)    Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, the Borrowers may, on the last Business Day of the then current
Interest Period applicable to any outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan, continue any
such loan in the same aggregate principal amount.  If a Borrower desires to
convert a loan, Greenwich on behalf of such Borrower shall give Agent not less
than three (3) Business Days' prior written notice, specifying the date of such
conversion, the loans to be converted and if the conversion is from a Domestic
Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Loan, the duration of the first Interest Period
therefor.  After giving effect to each such conversion, there shall not be
outstanding more than six (6) Eurodollar Rate Loans, in the aggregate.

              (e)    At their option and upon three (3) Business Days' prior
written notice, Borrowers may prepay the Advances in whole at any time, with
accrued interest on the principal being prepaid to the date of such prepayment.
In the event that any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan is required or
permitted on a date other than the last Business Day of the then current
Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrowers shall indemnify Agent and
Lenders therefor in accordance with Section 2.3(f) hereof.


                                      -30-
<PAGE>

              (f)    Each Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders and hold
Agent and Lenders harmless from and against any and all losses or expenses that
Agent or any Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of any prepayment or
any default by the Borrowers in the payment of the principal of or interest on
any Eurodollar Rate Loan or failure by the Borrowers to complete a borrowing of,
a prepayment of or conversion of or to a Eurodollar Rate Loan after notice
thereof has been given, including (but not limited to) any interest payable by
Agent or Lenders to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain
its Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder.

              (g)    Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any
applicable law, treaty, regulation or directive, or any change therein or in the
interpretation or application thereof, shall make it unlawful for any Lender
(for purposes of this subsection (g), Section 2.12 and Section 2.13, the term
"Lender" shall include any Lender and the office or branch where any Lender or
any corporation or bank controlling such Lender makes or maintains any
Eurodollar Rate Loans) to make or maintain its Eurodollar Rate Loans, the
obligation of any Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder shall forthwith
be cancelled and the Borrowers shall, if any affected Eurodollar Rate Loans are
then outstanding, promptly upon request from Agent, either pay all such affected
Eurodollar Rate Loans or convert such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans into
Domestic Loans.  If any such payment or conversion of any Eurodollar Rate Loan
is made on a day that is not applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, the
Borrowers shall pay Lenders, upon Agent's request, such amount or amounts as may
be necessary to compensate Lenders for any loss or expense sustained or incurred
by Lenders in respect of such Eurodollar Rate Loan as a result of such payment
or conversion, including (but not limited to) any interest or other amounts
payable by the Agent or Lenders to lenders of funds obtained by Agent or Lenders
in order to make or maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan.  A certificate as to any
additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Agent
to the Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

              (h)    Should any amount required to be paid by Borrowers as
principal or interest hereunder, or as fees or other charges under this
Agreement or any Other Documents, or with respect to any other Obligation,
become due and payable, same shall be deemed a request for an Advance as of the
date such payment is due, in the amount required to pay in full such interest,
principal, fee, charge or other Obligation under this Agreement and/or any Other
Documents, and such request shall be irrevocable.

       2.4    DISBURSEMENT OF ADVANCE PROCEEDS.  All Advances shall be disbursed
from whichever office or other place Agent may designate from time to time and,
together with any and all other Obligations of Borrowers to Agent or any Lender,
shall be charged to Borrowers' accounts on the Agent's books.  During the Term,


                                      -31-
<PAGE>

Borrowers may use the Advances (subject to the limitations set forth in Section
2.1 hereof) by borrowing, prepaying and reborrowing, all in accordance with the
terms and conditions hereof.

       2.5    REPAYMENT OF ADVANCES.  The Advances shall be due and payable in
full on the last day of the Term subject to earlier prepayment as herein
provided.

       2.6    REPAYMENT OF EXCESS ADVANCES.

              The aggregate balance of Advances outstanding at any time either
(a) to Greenwich in excess of the lesser of the (i) Greenwich Formula Amount as
at such time, or (ii) Maximum Loan Amount MINUS the outstanding Advances made to
or for the benefit of Turbine, GTI, Components, GASI and Engine Services or (b)
to or for the benefit of Turbine in excess of the lesser of (i) Turbine Formula
Amount as at such time, or (ii) Maximum Loan Amount MINUS the outstanding
Advances made to or for the benefit of Greenwich, GTI, Components, GASI and
Engine Services or (c) to GTI in excess of the lesser of the (i) GTI Formula
Amount as at such time, or (ii) Maximum Loan Amount MINUS the outstanding
Advances made to or for the benefit of Greenwich, Turbine, Components, GASI and
Engine Services or (d) to GASI in excess of the lesser of the (i) GASI Formula
Amount as at such time, or (ii) Maximum Loan Amount MINUS the outstanding
Advances made to or for the benefit of Greenwich, Turbine, Components, GTI and
Engine Services or (e) to Components in excess of the lesser of the (i)
Components Formula Amount as at such time, or (ii) Maximum Loan Amount MINUS the
outstanding Advances made to or for the benefit of Greenwich, Turbine, GTI, GASI
and Engine Services, or (f) to Engine Services in excess of the lesser of the
(i) Engine Services Formula Amount as at such time, or (ii) Maximum Loan Amount
MINUS the outstanding Advances made to or for the benefit of Greenwich, Turbine,
GTI, GASI and Engine Services shall be immediately due and payable without the
necessity of any demand, at the place designated by Agent, whether or not an
Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred hereunder.  In no
event shall the aggregate balance of Advances outstanding at any time to
Borrowers exceed the Maximum Loan Amount.

       2.7    MANNER OF BORROWING AND PAYMENT.  (a) Except as expressly provided
herein, all payments (including prepayments) to be made by Borrowers on account
of principal, interest and fees shall be made without set-off or counterclaim
and shall be made to the Agent to the Payment Office, in each case on or prior
to 1:00 p.m., New York time, in Dollars and in immediately available funds.

              (b)    Each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be advanced
according to the Commitment Percentages of the Lenders.

              (c)    (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Sections 2.7(a) and (b) hereof, commencing with the first Business Day following
the Effective Date, each borrowing of


                                      -32-
<PAGE>

Revolving Advances shall be advanced by Agent and each payment by Borrower on
account of Revolving Advances shall be applied first to those Revolving Advances
made by Agent.  On or before [1:00 P.M.], New York time, on each Settlement Date
commencing with the first Settlement Date following the Effective Date, Agent
and the Lenders shall make certain payments as follows: (I) if the aggregate
amount of new Revolving Advances made by Agent during the preceding Week exceeds
the aggregate amount of repayments applied to outstanding Revolving Advances
during such preceding Week, then each Lender shall provide Agent with funds in
an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the difference between (w) such
Revolving Advances and (x) such repayments and (II) if the aggregate amount of
repayments applied to outstanding Revolving Advances during such Week exceeds
the aggregate amount of new Revolving Advances made during such Week, then Agent
shall provide each Lender with its Commitment Percentage of the difference
between (y) such repayments and (z) such Revolving Advances.

                     (ii)    Each Lender shall be entitled to earn interest at
the applicable Contract Rate on outstanding Advances which it has funded.

                     (iii) Promptly following each Settlement Date, Agent shall
submit to each Lender a certificate with respect to payments received and
Advances made during the Week immediately preceding such Settlement Date.  Such
certificate of Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

              (d)    If any Lender or Participant (a "benefitted Lender") shall
at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Advances, or interest
thereon, or receive any Collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or
involuntarily or by set-off) in a greater proportion than any such payment to
and Collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other
Lender's Advances, or interest thereon, and such greater proportionate payment
or receipt of Collateral is not expressly permitted hereunder, such benefitted
Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders such portion of each such
other Lender's Advances, or shall provide such other Lender with the benefits of
any such Collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause
such benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such
Collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered
from such benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase
price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without
interest.  Each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender's Advances may
exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-
off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct
holder of such portion.

              (e)    Unless Agent shall have been notified by telephone,
confirmed in writing, by any Lender that such Lender


                                      -33-
<PAGE>

will not make the amount which would constitute its Commitment Percentage of the
Advances available to Agent, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) assume
that such Lender shall make such amount available to Agent and, in reliance upon
such assumption, make available to Borrowers a corresponding amount.  Agent will
promptly notify Borrowers of its receipt of any such notice from a Lender.  If
such amount is made available to Agent on a date after a Settlement Date, such
Lender shall pay to Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the
daily average Federal Funds Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days)
during such period as quoted by Agent, times (ii) such amount, times (iii) the
number of days from and including such Settlement Date to the date on which such
amount becomes immediately available to Agent.  A certificate of Agent submitted
to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph (e) shall
be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error.  If such amount is not in fact
made available to Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days after such
Settlement Date, Agent shall be entitled to recover such an amount, with
interest thereon at the rate per annum then applicable to Revolving Advances
hereunder, on demand from Borrowers; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Agent's right to
such recovery shall not prejudice or otherwise adversely affect Borrowers'
rights (if any) against such Lender.

       2.8    STATEMENT OF ACCOUNT.  Agent shall maintain, in accordance with
its customary procedures, a loan account in the name of each Borrower in which
shall be recorded the date and amount of each Advance to such Borrower made by
Agent and the date and amount of each repayment, prepayment or other payment in
respect thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the failure by Agent to record the date and
amount of any Advance shall not adversely affect Agent and the failure of the
Agent to record the date and amount of any repayment or prepayment of any
Advance shall not adversely affect such Borrower nor give it any rights vis a
vis Agent.  For each month, Agent shall send to Greenwich on behalf of Borrowers
a statement showing the accounting for the Advances made, payments made or
credited in respect thereof, and other transactions between the Agent, Lenders
and each Borrower, during such month.  The monthly statements shall be deemed
correct and binding upon the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error, and
shall constitute an account stated between Lenders and each Borrower unless
Agent receives a written statement of specific exceptions within thirty (30)
days after such statement is received by Borrowers.  The records of Agent with
respect to the loan accounts shall be prima facie evidence of the amounts of
Advances and other changes thereto and of payments applicable thereto.

       2.9    NO DEDUCTIONS.  Each Borrower shall pay principal, interest, and
all other amounts payable hereunder, or under any Other Documents, without any
deduction whatsoever, including, but not limited to, any deduction for any
setoff or counterclaim.


                                      -34-
<PAGE>

       2.10   MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS.

              (a)    When any Borrower sells or otherwise disposes of any
Collateral (other than Inventory in the ordinary course of business) such
Borrower shall repay the Advances in an amount equal to the difference between
(i) the cash proceeds of such sale or other disposition (except as otherwise
provided by Section 4.3) and (ii) the reasonable costs of such sale or other
disposition (in the case of subclauses (i) and (ii) above after giving effect to
all tax benefits or obligations in accordance with GAAP), such repayment to be
made promptly but in no event more than five (5) Business Days following receipt
of the net cash proceeds thereof, and until the date of payment, such proceeds
shall be held in trust for Lenders.  The foregoing shall not be deemed to be
implied consent to any such sale otherwise prohibited by the terms and
conditions hereof.

       2.11   ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS.  To the extent that Agent may, in the
exercise of its rights under this Agreement, make an expenditure due to any
Borrower's failure to perform or comply with its obligations under this
Agreement or any Other Document, any reasonable amounts so expended by Agent may
be charged to such Borrower's account as a Revolving Advance and added to the
Obligations.  Agent shall provide such Borrower, if requested, with
documentation to evidence such expenditure and shall provide such Borrower with
notice immediately prior to the making of such payment; PROVIDED, that the
failure of Agent to give such notice shall not adversely affect Agent's rights
hereunder.  In the event that at the time such sum is expended the unpaid
balance of Advances to any Borrower exceeds or would exceed, with the making of
such expenditure, the lesser of the Maximum Loan Amount MINUS the outstanding
Advances made to the other Borrowers or the Greenwich Formula Amount with
respect to Greenwich or the Turbine Formula Amount with respect to Turbine or
the GTI Formula Amount with respect to GTI or the GASI Formula Amount with
respect to GASI, or the Components Formula Amount with respect to Components, or
the Engine Services Formula Amount with respect to Engine Services such Borrower
shall on demand repay the Advances in the amount by which such expenditure
causes such excess.

       2.12   INCREASED COSTS.  In the event a change in any applicable law,
treaty or governmental regulation, in the interpretation or application thereof,
or compliance by Agent or any Lender with any new request or directive (whether
or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other financial,
monetary or other authority which is generally applicable to lenders similarly
situated to Agent or any Lender shall

              (a)    subject the Agent or any Lender to any tax of any kind
whatsoever (excluding taxes based on the income of Agent or any Lender) with
respect to this Agreement or change the basis of taxation of payments to Agent
or any Lender of principal, fees, interest or any other amount payable hereunder
or under any Other Documents;



                                      -35-
<PAGE>

              (b)    impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special
deposit, assessment or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits
in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, any
office of Agent or any Lender, including (without limitation) pursuant to
Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; or

              (c)    impose on Agent or any Lender any other condition with
respect to this Agreement or any Other Documents;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Agent or any
Lender of making, renewing or maintaining its Advances hereunder by an amount
that Agent or any Lender deems to be material or to reduce the amount of any
payment by or for the account of any Borrower (whether of principal, interest or
otherwise) in respect of any of the Advances by an amount that Agent or any
Lender deems to be material; then, in any case, such Borrower shall promptly pay
Agent or such Lender, upon demand, such additional amount as will compensate
Agent or such Lender for such additional cost or such reduction, as the case may
be, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to increased costs which are
reflected in the Alternate Base Rate.  Agent shall certify the amount of such
additional cost or reduced amount to such Borrower, and such certification shall
be prima facie evidence of such additional cost or reduced amount absent
manifest error.

       2.13   CAPITAL ADEQUACY.

              (a)    In the event that, on or after the date of this Agreement,
any adoption of or any change in any applicable law, rule, regulation or
guideline regarding capital adequacy of Agent or any Lender or any change in the
interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or compliance by Agent or any Lender, or any corporation or bank
controlling Agent or any Lender and the office or branch where Agent or any
Lender makes or maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loan with any request or directive
regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on Agent's or any Lender's capital as a consequence
of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Agent or any Lender
would have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into
consideration Agent's and each Lender's policies with respect to capital
adequacy) by an amount deemed by Agent or any Lender to be material, then, from
time to time, the Borrowers shall pay upon demand to Agent or such Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate Agent or such Lender for such
reduction.  In determining such amount or amounts, Agent or such Lender may use
any reasonable averaging or attribution methods.  The protection of this Section
2.13 shall be available to Agent and Lenders regardless of any possible
contention of invalidity or


                                      -36-
<PAGE>

inapplicability with respect to the applicable law, regulation or condition.

              (b)    A certificate of Agent setting forth such amount or amounts
as shall be necessary to compensate Agent or any Lender with respect to Section
2.13(a) when delivered to the Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.

              (c)    The obligations of Borrowers under this Section 2.13 shall
survive for a period of one (1) year following the termination of this Agreement
and the Other Documents and payment of the Notes and the Advances.

       2.14   BASIS FOR DETERMINING INTEREST RATE INADEQUATE OR UNFAIR.  In the
event that Agent or any Lender shall have determined that:

              (a)    reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the
Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period; or

              (b)    Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant
maturity are not available in the London interbank Eurodollar market, with
respect to an outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan, a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan,
or a proposed conversion of a Domestic Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Rate Loan;
THEN

Agent shall give the Borrowers prompt written, telephonic or telegraphic notice
of such determination.  If such notice is given, (i) any such requested
Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be made as a Domestic Rate Loan, unless the Borrowers
shall notify the Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) two (2)
Business Days prior to the date of such proposed borrowing, that their request
for such borrowing shall be cancelled or made as an unaffected type of
Eurodollar Rate Loan, (ii) any Domestic Rate Loan or Eurodollar Rate Loan which
was to have been converted to an affected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be
continued as or converted into a Domestic Rate Loan, or, if the Borrowers shall
notify Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) two (2) Business
Days prior to the proposed conversion, shall be maintained as an unaffected type
of Eurodollar Rate Loan, and (iii) any outstanding affected Eurodollar Rate Loan
shall be converted into a Domestic Rate Loan, or, if Borrowers shall notify
Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days prior
to the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such
affected Eurodollar Rate Loan, shall be converted into an unaffected type of
Eurodollar Rate Loan, on the last Business Day of the then current Interest
Period for such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans.  Until such notice has been
withdrawn, Lenders shall have no obligation to make an affected type of
Eurodollar Rate Loan or maintain outstanding affected Eurodollar Rate Loans and
Borrowers shall not have the right to convert a Domestic Rate Loan or an
unaffected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan into an affected type of Eurodollar Rate
Loan.

<PAGE>

       2.15    LETTERS OF CREDIT.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
Agent shall issue or cause the issuance of Standby Letters of Credit ("Letters
of Credit") PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Agent will not be required to issue or cause
to be issued Letters of Credit (i) for Turbine to the extent that the face
amount of such Letters of Credit would then cause the outstanding Advances to
Turbine (with the requested Letter of Credit being deemed to be outstanding for
purposes of this calculation) to exceed the lesser of (A) the Maximum Loan
Amount MINUS outstanding Advances to or for the benefit of Greenwich and GTI,
Components, GASI and Engine Services or (B) the Turbine Formula Amount or (ii)
for Greenwich to the extent that the face amount of such Letters of Credit would
then cause the outstanding Advances to Greenwich (with the requested Letter of
Credit being deemed to be outstanding for purposes of this calculation) to
exceed the lesser of (A) the Maximum Loan Amount MINUS outstanding Advances to
or for the benefit of Turbine, GTI, Components, GASI and Engine Services or (B)
the Greenwich Formula Amount or (iii) for GTI to the extent the face amount of
such Letters of Credit would then cause the outstanding Advances to GTI (with
the requested Letter of Credit being deemed to be outstanding for purposes of
this calculation) to exceed the lesser of (A) the Maximum Loan Amount MINUS
outstanding Advances to or for the benefit of Greenwich, Turbine, Components,
GASI and Engine Services or (B) the GTI Formula Amount, (iv) for Components to
the extent the face amount of such Letters of Credit would then cause the
outstanding Advances to Components (with the requested Letter of Credit being
deemed to be outstanding for purposes of this calculation) to exceed the lesser
of (A) the Maximum Loan Amount MINUS outstanding Advances to or for the benefit
of Greenwich, Turbine, GTI, GASI and Engine Services or (B) the Components
Formula Amount, (v) for GASI to the extent the face amount of such Letters of
Credit would then cause the outstanding Advances to GASI (with the requested
Letter of Credit being deemed to be outstanding for purposes of this
calculation) to exceed the lesser of (A) the Maximum Loan Amount MINUS
outstanding Advances to or for the benefit of Greenwich, Turbine, GTI,
Components and Engine Services or (B) the GASI Formula Amount, (vi) for Engine
Services to the extent the face amount of such Letters of Credit would then
cause the outstanding Advances to Engine Services (with the requested Letter of
Credit being deemed to be outstanding for purposes of this calculation) to
exceed the lesser of (A) the Maximum Loan Amount MINUS outstanding Advances to
or for the benefit of Greenwich, Turbine, GTI, Components and GASI or (B) the
Engine Services Formula Amount.  The maximum amount of outstanding Letters of
Credit shall not exceed $10,000,000 in the aggregate at any time.  All
disbursements or payments related to Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be
Revolving Advances and shall bear interest at the Revolving Interest Rate for
Domestic Rate Loans (unless and until converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan); and
to the extent not drawn upon, Letters of Credit that have not been drawn upon
shall not bear interest.  Letters of Credit shall be subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Application and Agreement for Standby Letter of
Credit attached hereto as EXHIBIT 2.15.

              Upon the declaration by Agent of an Event of Default, Borrowers
will cause cash to be deposited and maintained in an account with Agent, as cash
collateral, in an amount equal to the undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of
Credit, and each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent, in its
discretion, on such Borrower's behalf and in such Borrower's name, to open such
an account and to make and maintain deposits therein, or in an account opened by
such Borrower, in the amounts required to be made by such Borrower, out of the
proceeds of Receivables or other Collateral or out of any other funds of such
Borrower coming into Agent's possession at any time.  Agent will invest such
cash collateral (less applicable reserves) in such short-term money-market items
as to which Agent and such Borrower mutually agree and the net return on such
investments shall be credited to such account and constitute additional cash
collateral.  No Borrower may withdraw amounts credited to any such account
except upon (a) waiver or cure of the subject Event of Default, or (b) payment
and performance in full of all Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

       2.16  ISSUANCE OF LETTERS OF CREDIT.

              (a)    Greenwich on behalf of itself or any other Borrower may
request Agent to issue or cause the issuance of a Letter of Credit by delivering
to Agent at the Payment Office, Bank's standard form of Application and
Agreement for Standby Letter of Credit (the "Letter of Credit Application")
completed to the satisfaction of Agent; and such other related certificates,
documents and other papers and information as Agent may reasonably request.

              (b)    Each Letter of Credit shall, among other things, (i)
provide for the payment of sight drafts when presented for honor thereunder in
accordance with the terms thereof and when accompanied by the documents
described therein and (ii) have an expiry date not later than twelve months
after such Letter of Credit's date of issuance and in no event later than five
(5) days prior to the last day of the Term.  Each Letter of Credit Application
and each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the Uniform Customs and Practice
for Documentary Credits (1993 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce
Publication No. 500, and any amendments or revisions thereof and, to the extent
not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of New York.

       2.17   REQUIREMENTS FOR ISSUANCE OF LETTERS OF CREDIT.

              (a)    In connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit,
Borrowers shall indemnify, save and hold Agent and each Lender harmless from any
loss, cost, expense or liability, including, without limitation, payments made
by Agent or any Lender, and expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by
Agent or any Lender arising out of, or in connection with, any Letter of Credit
to be issued or created. Borrowers shall be bound by Agent's, any Lender's or
any issuing bank's regulations and good faith interpretations of any Letter of
Credit issued or created for


                                      -39-
<PAGE>

any Borrower's account, although this interpretation may be different from
Borrowers' own; and neither Agent, any Lender, the bank which opened the Letter
of Credit, nor any of its correspondents shall be liable for any error,
negligence, or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any
Borrower's instructions or those contained in any Letter of Credit or of any
modifications, amendments or supplements thereto or in issuing or paying any
Letter of Credit, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

              (b)    Greenwich on behalf of itself or any other Borrower shall
authorize and direct any bank which issues a Letter of Credit to name such
Borrower as the "Account Party" therein and to deliver to Agent all instruments,
documents, and other writings and property received by the bank pursuant to the
Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon Agent's instructions and agreements
with respect to all matters arising in connection with the Letter of Credit or
the application therefor.

              (c)    Each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably purchased
an undivided participation in Agent's credit support enhancement provided to the
issuing bank of any Letter of Credit and each Revolving Advance made as a
consequence of the issuance of a Letter of Credit and all disbursements
thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender's applicable Commitment Percentage
times the outstanding amount of the Letters of Credit and disbursements
thereunder.  In the event that at the time a disbursement is made the unpaid
balance of Revolving Advances exceeds or would exceed, with the making of such
disbursement, the lesser of the Maximum Loan Amount or the Formula Amount, and
such disbursement is not reimbursed by Borrowers within two (2) Business Days,
Agent shall promptly notify each Lender and upon Agent's demand each Lender
shall pay to Agent such Lender's proportionate share of such unreimbursed
disbursement together with such Lender's proportionate share of Agent's
unreimbursed costs and expenses relating to such unreimbursed disbursement.
Upon receipt by Agent of a repayment from any Borrower of any amount disbursed
by Agent for which Agent had already been reimbursed by any of Lenders, Agent
shall deliver to each of the subject Lenders that Lender's pro rata share of
such repayment.  Each Lender's participation commitment shall continue until the
last to occur of any of the following events: (A) Agent ceases to be obligated
to issue Letters of Credit hereunder; (B) no Letter of Credit issued hereunder
remains outstanding and uncancelled or (C) all Persons (other than the
applicable Borrower) have been fully reimbursed for all payments made under or
relating to Letters of Credit.

       2.18   DEFAULTING LENDER.

              (a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
in the event any Lender (x) has refused (which refusal constitutes a breach by
such Lender of its obligations


                                      -40-
<PAGE>

under this Agreement) to make available its portion of any Advance or (y)
notifies either Agent or any Borrower that it does not intend to make available
its portion of any Advance (if the actual refusal would constitute a breach by
such Lender of its obligations under this Agreement) (each, a "Lender Default"),
all rights and obligations hereunder of such Lender (a "Defaulting Lender") as
to which a Lender Default is in effect and of the other parties hereto shall be
modified to the extent of the express provisions of this Section 2.18 while such
Lender Default remains in effect.

              (b)    Advances shall be incurred PRO RATA from Lenders (the "Non-
Defaulting Lenders") which are not Defaulting Lenders based on their respective
Commitment Percentages, and no Commitment Percentage of any Lender or any PRO
RATA share of any Advances required to be advanced by any Lender shall be
increased as a result of such Lender Default.  Amounts received in respect of
principal of any type of Advances shall be applied to reduce the applicable
Advances of each Lender PRO RATA based on the aggregate of the outstanding
Advances of that type of all Lenders at the time of such application; provided,
that, such amount shall not be applied to any Advances of a Defaulting Lender at
any time when, and to the extent that, the aggregate amount of Advances of any
Non-Defaulting Lender exceeds such Non-Defaulting Lender's Commitment Percentage
of all Advances then outstanding.

              (c)    A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled, during the
continuance of such Lender Default, to give instructions to Agent or to approve,
disapprove, consent to or vote on any matters relating to this Agreement and the
Other Documents.  All amendments, waivers and other modifications of this
Agreement and the Other Documents may be made without regard to a Defaulting
Lender and, solely for purposes of the definition of "Required Lenders" and
Section 14.2(b) hereof, a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a Lender
and not to have Advances outstanding.

              (d)    Other than as expressly set forth in this Section 2.18, the
rights and obligations of a Defaulting Lender (including the obligation to
indemnify Agent) and the other parties hereto shall remain unchanged.  Nothing
in this Section 2.18 shall be deemed to release any Defaulting Lender from its
obligations under this Agreement and the Other Documents, shall alter such
obligations, shall operate as a waiver of any default by such Defaulting Lender
hereunder, or shall prejudice any rights which Borrower, Agent or any Lender may
have against any Defaulting Lender as a result of any default by such Defaulting
Lender hereunder.

              (e)    In the event a Defaulting Lender retroactively cures to the
satisfaction of Agent the breach which caused a Lender to become a Defaulting
Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall no longer be a Defaulting Lender and shall
be treated as a Lender under this Agreement.


                                      -41-
<PAGE>

              (f)    If a Lender Default shall occur, any Lender or Lenders may
commit to make Advances in an amount necessary to meet Borrowers' request.  In
such event, the Defaulting Lender's Commitment Percentage of the Advances shall
be terminated and its Commitment Percentage of the Advances outstanding (prior
to such additional Advances being made by the other Lender or Lenders) shall be
repaid by the Borrowers provided Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay an
early termination fee to such Defaulting Lender.


       III.  INTEREST AND FEES.

       3.1    INTEREST.  Interest on Revolving Advances shall be payable in
arrears on the last day of each month with respect to Domestic Rate Loans and,
with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan, at the end of the Interest Period
relating to such Eurodollar Rate Loan.  Interest charges for Domestic Rate Loans
shall be computed on the actual average of daily Revolving Advances outstanding
during the month (the "Monthly Advances") at a rate per annum equal to the
applicable Revolving Interest Rate.  Whenever, subsequent to the date of this
Agreement, the Alternate Base Rate is increased or decreased, the Revolving
Interest Rate applicable to Domestic Rate Loans shall be similarly changed
without notice or demand of any kind by an amount equal to the amount of such
change in the Alternate Base Rate during the time such change or changes remain
in effect.  Upon and after the declaration by Agent of an Event of Default, and
during the continuation thereof, the Revolving Advances shall bear interest at
the Revolving Interest Rate plus two (2%) percent per annum and fees on
outstanding Letters of Credit shall be calculated at three and one-half (3.50%)
percent (the "Default Rate").

       3.2    INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

       3.3    UNUSED FACILITY FEE.  On the first day of each calendar month
commencing on the first day of the first month following the Effective Date,
Borrowers shall pay to Agent an unused facility fee initially, a rate per annum
equal to .3% of the average daily unused portion of the Maximum Loan Amount;
PROVIDED, however, the unused facility fee shall be amended as provided below,
commencing on the later to occur of (i) the last day of the third fiscal quarter
after the Effective Date and (ii) March 31, 1997 and at the end of each fiscal
quarter thereafter based upon the ratio of Funded Debt to EBITDA as reflected in
the financial statements (x) delivered to Agent pursuant to Section 9.7 of this
Agreement with respect to the first three (3) fiscal quarters of any fiscal year
and (y) delivered to Agent pursuant to Section 9.8 of this Agreement with
respect to the last fiscal quarter of any fiscal year:


Ratio of Indebtedness to EBITDA                             Unused Facility Fee


                                      -42-
<PAGE>

less than 3.0 to 1.0                                               0.200%
less than 3.50 and equal to or greater than 3.0 to 1.0             0.200%
less than 4.50 and equal to or greater than 3.50 to 1.0            0.300%
equal to or greater than 4.50 to 1.0                               0.375%

       The foregoing ratio shall be determined for Borrowers on a consolidated
basis.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the unused facility fee shall not be
reduced at such time as an Event of Default or Incipient Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing but shall be reduced (if applicable) when such Event
of Default or Incipient Event of Default has been cured or waived.

       3.4    LETTER OF CREDIT.

       Borrowers shall pay Agent (i) for the pro-rata benefit of Lenders for
issuing or causing the issuance of a Letter of Credit, a fee computed at a rate
per annum of one and one-half percent (1-1/2%) on the original face amount
thereof ("Letter of Credit Fees"), (ii) Bank's other customary charges payable
in connection with Letters of Credit, as in effect from time to time (which
charges shall be furnished to Borrowers by Agent upon request).  Such fees and
charges shall be payable on the opening of each Letter of Credit, and thereafter
on the last day of each month.  Any such charge in effect at the time of a
particular transaction shall be the charge for that transaction, notwithstanding
any subsequent change in Bank's prevailing charges for that type of transaction.
All Letter of Credit Fees payable hereunder shall be deemed earned in full on
the date when the same are due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to
rebate or proration upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

       3.5    COMPUTATION OF INTEREST AND FEES.  Interest and fees hereunder
shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number
of days elapsed; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, Advances bearing interest based on the Prime
Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365(6) days and for the actual
number of days elapsed.  If any payment to be made hereunder becomes due and
payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall then be
payable in respect of the period of such extension.  The fees set forth in
Sections 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 shall, unless contrary instructions are received in
writing by Agent from Greenwich, be charged to the respective loan accounts of
each Borrower as follows:  [25% to Greenwich's account, 10% to Turbine's
account, __% to Engine Services, __% to GASI and __% to Components.


                                      -43-
<PAGE>

       3.6    MAXIMUM CHARGES.  In no event whatsoever shall interest and other
charges charged hereunder exceed the highest rate permissible under law which a
court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable
hereto.  In the event that a court determines that Agent or any Lender has
received interest and other charges hereunder in excess of the highest lawful
rate applicable hereto, such excess interest shall be first applied to any
unpaid principal balance owed by Borrowers, and if the then remaining excess
interest is greater than the previously unpaid principal balance, Lenders shall
promptly refund such excess amount to the Borrowers and the provisions hereof
shall be deemed amended to provide for such permissible rate.


        IV.  COLLATERAL:  GENERAL TERMS

       4.1    ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND GRANT OF SECURITY INTERESTS.

              (a)    Each Borrower hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that
Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders has and shall continue to have a lien
upon and security interest in all Collateral heretofore granted to BNYCC
pursuant to the Existing Loan Agreement to secure the Obligations, and, to the
extent not otherwise granted thereunder or under the Other Documents or
otherwise granted to or held by BNYCC, Borrowers hereby pledge and assign to
Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders and grant to Agent for the ratable
benefit of Lenders a continuing security interest in, all of the Collateral,
wherever located, whether in any Borrower's possession or in the possession and
control of a third party for any Borrower's or Agent's or any Lender's account.
All of each Borrower's ledger sheets, files, records, books of account, business
papers and documents relating to the Collateral shall, until delivered to or
removed by Agent, be kept by such Borrower in trust for Agent for the ratable
benefit of Lenders.

              (b)    The liens and security interests of Agent for the ratable
benefit of Lenders in the Collateral shall be deemed to be continuously
perfected from the earliest date of the granting of such liens and security
interests, whether hereunder, under the Other Documents, or under the Existing
Loan Agreement.

       4.2    PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTEREST.  Each Borrower shall take all
action that may be necessary or desirable, or that Agent may reasonably request,
so as at all times to maintain the validity, perfection, enforceability and
first priority of Agent's security interest in the Collateral or to enable Agent
to protect, exercise or enforce its rights hereunder and in the Collateral,

Collateral, (iv) entering into custodial arrangements satisfactory to Agent, and
(v) executing and delivering financing statements, instruments of pledge,
mortgages, notices and assignments, in each case in form and substance
satisfactory to Agent, relating to the creation, validity, perfection,

the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law.  All reasonable and
necessary charges, expenses and fees that Agent may incur in doing any of the
foregoing in the good faith exercise of its discretion, and any local taxes
relating thereto, shall be charged to the applicable Borrower's account and
added to the Obligations, or, at Agent's option, shall be paid to Agent
immediately upon demand.

       4.3    DISPOSITION OF COLLATERAL.   Each Borrower will safeguard and
protect all Collateral for Agent's general account and make no disposition
thereof whether by sale, lease or otherwise without Agent's prior written
consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that any
Borrower may, without Agent's consent, sell Inventory in the ordinary course of
business.

       4.4    PRESERVATION OF COLLATERAL.   Agent shall have, and is hereby
granted, a right of ingress and egress to the places where the Collateral is
located, and may proceed over and through any of Borrowers' owned or leased
property   In addition to the rights and remedies set forth in Section 11.1
hereof, Agent may at any time following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default take such steps as Agent deems necessary to
protect its security interest in and to preserve the Collateral including (a)
the hiring of such security guards or the placing of other security protection
measures as Agent may deem appropriate; (b) employing and maintaining at any of
Borrowers' premises a custodian who shall have full authority to do all acts
necessary to protect Agent's security interest in the Collateral; (c) leasing
warehouse facilities to which Agent may move all or part of the Collateral; and
(d) subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, using any of
Borrowers' owned or leased lifts, hoists, trucks and other facilities or

fully with all of Agent's efforts to preserve the Collateral and will take such
actions to preserve the Collateral as Agent may direct.  All of Agent's
reasonable and necessary expenses of preserving the Collateral, including any
expenses relating to the bonding of a custodian, shall be charged to the
applicable Borrower's account as an Advance and added to the Obligations.

       4.5    OWNERSHIP OF COLLATERAL.  With respect to the Collateral, at the
time the Collateral became or becomes subject to the security interest granted
pursuant to the Existing Loan Agreement or Section 4.1 hereof, as the case may
be:  (a) each Borrower shall be the sole owner of and fully authorized and able
to transfer, pledge and/or grant a first security interest in each


                                      -45-
<PAGE>

and every item of its respective Collateral to Agent; and, except for Permitted
Encumbrances, the Collateral shall be free and clear of all Liens, Claims,
Charges and encumbrances whatsoever; (b) each document and agreement executed by
each Borrower or delivered to Agent or any Lender on behalf of each Borrower in
connection with this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material
respects as of the date thereof; (c) all signatures and endorsements of each
Borrower that appear on such documents and agreements shall be genuine and each
Borrower shall have full capacity to execute same; and (d) Borrowers' Inventory
shall be located as set forth on EXHIBIT 4.5 and shall not be removed from such
location(s) (except with respect to the sale of Inventory in the ordinary course
of business) unless Agent shall have received thirty (30) days' prior written
notice of such removal.

       4.6    DEFENSE OF AGENT'S INTERESTS.  Until (a) payment and performance
in full of all of the Obligations and (b) termination of this Agreement, Agent's
interests in the Collateral shall continue in full force and effect.  During
such period none of the Borrowers shall, without Agent's prior written consent,
pledge, sell (except Inventory in the ordinary course of business), assign,
transfer, create or suffer to exist a security interest in, Lien, Claim or
Charge upon or encumber or allow or suffer to be encumbered in any way except
for Permitted Encumbrances, any part of the Collateral.  Except as respects
Permitted Encumbrances, each Borrower shall defend Agent's interests in the
Collateral against any and all Persons whatsoever.  At any time following the
declaration and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, Agent
shall have the right to take possession of the indicia of the Collateral and the
Collateral using all legally permitted methods in whatever physical form
contained, including without limitation:  labels, stationery, documents,
instruments and advertising materials.  If Agent exercises this right to take
possession of the Collateral, each Borrower shall, upon demand, assemble it in
the best manner possible and make it available to Agent at a place reasonably
convenient to Agent; PROVIDED, that any request by Agent shall be made in a
commercially reasonable manner.  In addition, with respect to all Collateral,
Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies set forth
herein and further provided by the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable
law.  Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, each Borrower shall, and Agent may, at its option, instruct all
suppliers, carriers, forwarders, warehouses or others receiving or holding cash,
checks, Inventory, documents or instruments in which Agent holds a security
interest to deliver same to Agent and/or subject to Agent's order.  If any of
the foregoing shall, at any time, come into any Borrower's possession, they, and
each of them, shall be held by such Borrower in trust as Agent's trustee, and
such Borrower will immediately deliver them to Agent in their original form
together with any necessary endorsement.

       4.7    BOOKS AND RECORDS.  Each Borrower (a) shall keep proper books of
record and account in which full, true and correct


                                      -46-
<PAGE>

entries will be made of all dealings or transactions of or in relation to its
business and affairs; (b) set up on its books accruals with respect to all
taxes, assessments, charges, levies and claims; and (c) on a reasonably current
basis set up on its books, from its earnings, allowances against doubtful
Receivables, advances and investments and all other proper accruals (including
without limitation by reason of enumeration, accruals for premiums, if any, due
on required payments and accruals for depreciation, obsolescence, or
amortization of properties), which should be set aside from such earnings in
connection with its business.  All determinations pursuant to this subsection
shall be made in accordance with, or as required by, GAAP consistently applied.

       4.8    FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.  Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes
and directs all accountants and auditors employed by such Borrower at any time
during the term of this Agreement to exhibit and deliver to Agent and each
Lender copies of any of the Borrowers' financial statements, trial balances or
other accounting records including work papers of any sort in the accountant's
or auditor's possession, and to disclose to Agent and each Lender any
information such accountants may have concerning the Borrowers' financial status
and business operations.  Each Borrower hereby authorizes all federal, state and
municipal authorities to furnish to Agent and each Lender copies of reports or
examinations relating to the Borrowers, whether made by the Borrowers or
otherwise; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Agent and each Lender will attempt to obtain
such information or materials directly from the Borrowers prior to obtaining
such information or materials from such accountants or governmental authorities.
Any failure by the accountants or governmental authorities to comply with
information requests of Agent or any Lender shall not be deemed an Event of
Default hereunder unless such failure to comply is a result of instructions by
any Borrower which are contrary to the provisions of this Section 4.8.  Agent
and each Lender shall exercise its rights hereunder in a commercially reasonable
manner.

       4.9    COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.  Each Borrower shall in all material
respects comply with all acts, rules, regulations and orders of any legislative,
administrative or judicial body or official applicable to the Collateral or any
part thereof or to the operation of such Borrower's business the non-compliance
with which would have a material adverse effect on the Collateral, or the
operations, business or condition (financial or otherwise) of such Borrower.
Any Borrower may, however, contest or dispute any acts, rules, regulations,
orders and directions of those bodies or officials in any reasonable manner,
provided that any related Lien or Charge which is or might be asserted with
respect thereto (if applicable to the Collateral) is inchoate or stayed and
sufficient reserves are established to the reasonable satisfaction of Agent so
as not to derogate from or against and so as to protect, Agent's lien on or
security interest in the Collateral.

       4.10   INSPECTION OF PREMISES.  At all reasonable times Agent or any
Lender shall have full access to and the right to


                                      -47-
<PAGE>

audit, check, inspect and make abstracts and copies from the Borrowers' books,
records, audits, correspondence and all other papers relating to the Collateral
and the operation of Borrowers' business.  Agent or any Lender may enter upon
any of the Borrowers' premises at any time during business hours and at any
other reasonable time, and from time to time, for the purpose of inspecting the
Collateral and any and all records pertaining thereto and the operation of
Borrowers' business.

       4.11   INSURANCE.  Borrowers shall bear the full risk from any loss of
any nature whatsoever with respect to the Collateral.  At its own cost and
expense in amounts and with carriers acceptable to Agent (which acceptance shall
not be unreasonably withheld), each Borrower shall (a) keep all its insurable
properties and properties in which such Borrower has an interest insured against
the hazards of fire, flood, sprinkler leakage, those hazards covered by extended
coverage insurance and such other hazards, including, without limitation,
business interruption insurance and for such amounts, as is customary in the
case of companies engaged in a business similar to such Borrower provided that
such insurance shall be for at least [$____________] in the aggregate for all of
the Borrowers; (b) maintain a bond in such amounts as is customary in the case
of companies engaged in a business similar to such Borrower insuring against
larceny, embezzlement or other criminal misappropriation of insured's officers
and employees who may either singly or jointly with others at any time have
access to the assets or funds of any Borrower either directly or through
authority to draw upon such funds or to direct generally the disposition of such
assets; (c) maintain product liability insurance against claims for personal
injury, death or property damage suffered by others in an amount not less than
the maximum amount which Borrowers are able to obtain; PROVIDED, that such
insurance shall not be for an amount less than [$100,000,000?] in the aggregate
for all of the Borrowers or more than [$250,000,000?] in the aggregate for all
of the Borrowers; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that Borrowers' inability to obtain
insurance in an amount equal to [$250,000,000] in the aggregate for all
Borrowers is due to market conditions and is not a result of Borrowers' actions
or omissions; (d) maintain all such worker's compensation or similar insurance
as may be required under the laws of each state or jurisdiction in which any
Borrower is engaged in business; (e) furnish Agent with (i) copies of all
policies and evidence of the maintenance of such policies by the renewal thereof
at least thirty (30) days before any expiration date, and (ii) appropriate loss
payable endorsements in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, naming Agent
as loss payee as its interests may appear with respect to all insurance coverage
referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above and as an additional insured with
respect to the insurance coverage referred to in clauses (c) and (d) above, and
in either case providing (A) that all proceeds thereunder in respect of the
Collateral shall be payable to Agent, (B) that no such insurance shall be
affected by any act or neglect of the insured or owner of the property described
in such policy, and (C) that such policy and loss payable clauses may not be
cancelled,


                                      -48-
<PAGE>

amended or terminated unless at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice is
given to Agent.  In the event of any loss thereunder, the carriers named therein
hereby are directed by Agent and Borrowers to make payment for such loss to
Agent and not to the Borrowers and Agent jointly.  If any insurance losses are
paid by check, draft or other instrument payable to the Borrowers and Agent
jointly, Agent may endorse any Borrower's name thereon and do such other things
as Agent may deem advisable to reduce the same to cash.  All loss recoveries
received by Agent upon any such insurance may be applied to the Obligations, in
such order as Agent in its sole discretion shall determine; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
Agent shall remit to Borrowers any loss recoveries received by Agent with
respect to Borrowers' insurance coverage referred to in clauses (c) and (d)
above which are paid to Agent other than in its capacity as an additional
insured under said policies.  Any surplus shall be paid by Agent to Borrowers or
applied as may be otherwise required by law.  Any deficiency in the amount of
insurance proceeds received when compared to the value of the Collateral the
loss of which gave rise to such insurance proceeds shall be paid by the
Borrowers to Agent, on demand.  Anything hereinabove to the contrary
notwithstanding (i) Agent shall permit each Borrower to adjust and compromise
claims under insurance coverage provided that no Event of Default shall have
been declared and be continuing and (ii) Agent shall promptly remit to Borrowers
insurance proceeds received by Agent during any calendar year under insurance
policies procured and maintained by Borrowers which insure Borrowers' insurable
Collateral to the extent such insurance proceeds do not exceed $2,000,000 per
occurrence provided, (x) no Event of Default shall have been declared and be
continuing, (y) Borrowers shall use such insurance proceeds to repair, replace
or restore the insurable Collateral which was the subject of the insurable loss
and for no other purpose and (z) Agent shall have obtained a perfected security
interest in such repaired, replaced or restored Collateral.  In the event the
amount of insurance proceeds received by Agent for any occurrence as aforesaid
exceeds [$750,000] and no Event of Default shall have been declared and be
continuing, Agent shall place such proceeds in an interest-bearing account and
such proceeds shall be remitted to Borrowers from time to time to the extent (a)
Borrowers shall submit invoices to Agent with respect to the repair, replacement
or restoration of the insurable Collateral which was the subject of the
insurable loss, (b) Borrowers shall use such insurance proceeds to repair,
replace or restore the insurable Collateral which was the subject of the
insurable loss and for no other purpose, (c) the repair, replacement or
restoration of the subject Collateral must be capable of being accomplished
during the period of time in which any Borrower's business interruption
insurance is in effect and (d) each Borrower shall have delivered to Agent a
revised Business Plan in form and substance satisfactory to Agent evidencing
such Borrower's ability to continue to operate its business in compliance with
the provisions of Sections 6.5, 6.6 and 6.7 hereof and without the occurrence of
any other Event of Default hereunder.  Following the declaration and during the
continuance of an Event of Default


                                      -49-
<PAGE>

hereunder, Agent shall not be obligated to remit the insurance proceeds to
Borrowers.

       4.12   FAILURE TO MAINTAIN INSURANCE.  If any Borrower fails to obtain
insurance as hereinabove provided, or to keep the same in force, Agent may
obtain such insurance and pay the premium therefor for such Borrower's account,
and charge such Borrower's account therefor and such expenses so paid shall be
charged to such Borrower's account as an Advance and added to the Obligations.

       4.13   PAYMENT OF TAXES.  Each Borrower will pay, before becoming
delinquent, all taxes, assessments and other Charges or Claims lawfully levied
or assessed upon such Borrower or any of the Collateral including, without
limitation, real and personal property taxes, assessments and charges and all
franchise, income, employment, social security benefits, withholding, and sales
taxes. If any tax by any governmental authority is or may be imposed on Agent or
any Lender or, as a result of any transaction between Borrowers, any Agent and
Lender, Agent or any Lender may be required to withhold or pay such a tax or, if
any taxes, assessments, or other Charges remain unpaid after the delinquency
date or if any Claim shall be made which, in Agent's opinion, may possibly
create a valid Lien, Charge or Claim on the Collateral, Agent may, concurrently
with giving notice to Borrowers, pay the taxes, assessments, Liens, Charges or
Claims and each Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds Agent harmless in respect
thereof except for gross (not mere) negligence or willful misconduct.  The
amount of any payment by Agent or any Lender under this Section 4.13 shall be
charged to the applicable Borrower's account as an Advance and added to the
Obligations and, until the applicable Borrower shall furnish Agent with an
indemnity therefor (or supply Agent with evidence satisfactory to Agent that due
provision for the payment thereof has been made), Agent may hold without
interest any balance standing to any Borrower's credit and Agent shall retain
its security interest in any and all Collateral held by Agent.

       4.14   PAYMENT OF LEASEHOLD OBLIGATIONS.  Each Borrower shall at all
times pay, before becoming delinquent, its rental obligations under all leases
under which it is a tenant, and shall otherwise comply, in all material
respects, with all other terms of such leases and keep them in full force and
effect and, at Agent's request, will provide evidence of having done so.

       4.15   RECEIVABLES.

              (a)    NATURE OF RECEIVABLES.  Each of the Receivables shall be a
bona fide and valid account representing a bona fide obligation of the Customer
therein named, for a fixed sum as set forth in the invoice relating thereto
(provided immaterial or unintentional invoice errors shall not be deemed to be a
breach hereof and Eligible Unbilled Receivables do not have any invoices
relating thereto) with respect to an absolute sale or lease and delivery of
goods upon stated terms of the applicable Borrower, or


                                      -50-
<PAGE>

work, labor or services theretofore rendered by such Borrower and as of the date
each Receivable is created.  Same shall be due and owing in accordance with each
Borrower's standard terms of sale without dispute, setoff or counterclaim
except, as may be stated on the accounts receivable schedules delivered by the
Borrower to Agent.

              (b)    SOLVENCY OF CUSTOMERS.  To the best of each Borrower's
knowledge, each Customer, as of the date each Receivable is created, is and will
be solvent and able to pay all Receivables on which the Customer is obligated in
full when due or with respect to such Customers of Borrowers who are not solvent
such Borrower has set up on its books and in its financial records bad debt
reserves adequate to cover such Receivables or has collateral from such Customer
sufficient to cover such Receivables.

              (c)    LOCATIONS OF BORROWER.  Each Borrower's chief executive
office is located at 4590 N.W. 36th Street, Building 23, Miami, Florida 33122.
Until written notice is given to Agent by any Borrower of any other office at
which it keeps its records pertaining to Receivables, all such records shall be
kept at such executive office.

              (d)    COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLES.  Until the Borrowers' authority
to do so is terminated by Agent (which notice Agent may give at any time
following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default),
each Borrower will, at such Borrower's sole cost and expense, but on Agent's
behalf and for the account of Agent, collect as Agent's property and in trust
for Agent all amounts received on Receivables, and shall not commingle such
collections with such Borrower's funds or use the same except to pay
Obligations.  Each Borrower shall, upon request, deliver to Agent in original
form and on the date of receipt thereof, all checks, drafts, notes, money
orders, acceptances, cash and other evidences of Indebtedness.

              (e)    NOTIFICATION OF ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES. At any time
following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
Agent shall have the right to send notice of the assignment of, and Agent's
security interest in, the Receivables to any and all Customers or any third
party holding or otherwise concerned with any of the Collateral.  Thereafter,
Agent shall have the sole right to collect the Receivables, take possession of
the Collateral, or both.  Agent's actual collection expenses, including, but not
limited to, stationery and postage, telephone and telegraph, secretarial and
clerical expenses and the salaries of any collection personnel used for
collection, may be charged to each Borrower's account and added to the
Obligations.

              (f)    POWER OF AGENT TO ACT ON EACH BORROWER'S BEHALF.  Agent
shall have the right to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver in the name of
Agent or the applicable Borrower any and all checks, drafts and other
instruments for the payment of money relating to the Receivables, and each
Borrower hereby waives


                                      -51-
<PAGE>

notice of presentment, protest and non-payment of any instrument so endorsed.
Each Borrower hereby constitutes Agent or its designee as the Borrower's
attorney with power (i) to endorse such Borrower's name upon any notes,
acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment or
Collateral; (ii) to sign such Borrower's name on any invoice or bill of lading
relating to any of the Receivables, drafts against Customers, assignments and
verifications of Receivables; (iii) to send verifications of Receivables to any
Customer; (iv) to sign such Borrower's name on all financing  statements or any
other documents or instruments deemed necessary or appropriate by Agent to
preserve, protect, or perfect Agent's interest in the Collateral and to file
same; (v) following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, to demand payment of the Receivables; (vi) following the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, to enforce payment of the
Receivables by legal proceedings or otherwise: (vii) following the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise all of each
Borrower's rights and remedies with respect to the collection of the Receivables
and any other Collateral; (viii) following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, to settle, adjust, compromise, extend or
renew the Receivables; (ix) following the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, to settle, adjust or compromise any legal proceedings
brought to collect Receivables; (x) to prepare, file and sign each Borrower's
name on a proof of claim in bankruptcy or similar document against any Customer
if such Borrower has failed to do so no later than thirty (30) days prior to any
bar date; (xi) to prepare, file and sign each Borrower's name on any notice of
Lien, assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document in connection with
the Receivables if such Borrower has failed to do so no later than thirty (30)
days prior to the expiration of any applicable time period; and (xii) to do all
other acts and things necessary to carry out this Agreement. All acts of said
attorney or designee are hereby ratified and approved, and said attorney or
designee shall not be liable for any acts of omission or commission nor for any
error of judgment or mistake of fact or of law, unless done willfully and
maliciously or by gross (not mere) negligence; this power being coupled with an
interest is irrevocable while any of the Obligations remain unpaid.  Agent shall
have the right at any time following the declaration and during the continuance
of an Event of Default to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to
any Borrower to such address as Agent may designate.

              (g)    NO LIABILITY.  Neither Agent nor any Lender shall, under
any circumstances or in any event whatsoever, have any liability for any error
or omission or delay of any kind occurring in the settlement, collection or
payment of any of the Receivables or any instrument received in payment thereof,
or for any damage resulting therefrom except for its own willful misconduct or
gross (not mere) negligence.  Following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may, without notice or consent from
any Borrower, sue upon or otherwise collect, extend the time of payment of,
compromise or settle for cash, credit or


                                      -52-
<PAGE>

upon any terms any of the Receivables or any other securities, instruments or
insurance applicable thereto and/or release any obligor thereof.  Agent is
authorized and empowered to accept, following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the return of the goods represented by any
of the Receivables, without notice to or consent by any Borrower, all without
discharging or in any way affecting any Borrower's liability hereunder.

              (h)    ESTABLISHMENT OF AN AGENCY ACCOUNT.  All proceeds of
Collateral shall, at the direction of Agent, be deposited by each Borrower into
a separate agency account (collectively, "Agency Accounts") as Agent may require
pursuant to an arrangement with such bank(s) (the "Depository Banks") as may be
selected by each Borrower and be acceptable to Agent.  The Depository Bank shall
receive, in writing, irrevocable instructions directing the Depository Bank to
transfer such funds so deposited to Agent by wire transfer to specified
account(s) of Agent.  All funds deposited in the Agency Accounts shall
immediately become the property of Agent and each Borrower shall obtain the
agreement by the Depository Bank to waive any offset rights against the funds so
deposited.  Neither Agent nor any Lender assumes any responsibility for such
Agency Account arrangements, including without limitation, any claim of accord
and satisfaction or release with respect to deposits accepted by any bank
thereunder.  Each Borrower will maintain an operating account with a Depository
Bank.  In the event that any check(s) deposited in the Agency Accounts is
returned unpaid, the amount thereof shall be charged by such Depository Bank to
such operating account and, to the extent that funds are not available in the
operating account, such Borrower shall be solely responsible for reimbursing the
Depository Bank.  Each Borrower shall issue, to the respective Depository Bank,
an irrevocable letter of instruction directing such Depository Bank that, to the
extent that such Borrower shall receive wire transfers representing proceeds of
Collateral in such operating account, such funds shall be automatically and
immediately transferred to the applicable Agency Account.

       4.16   INVENTORY.  All Inventory produced by each Borrower has been, and
will be produced, in accordance with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act of
1938, as amended, and all rules, regulations and orders thereunder.

       4.17    EXCULPATION OF LIABILITY.  Except as set forth in Section 4.15(f)
hereof, nothing herein contained shall be construed to constitute Agent or any
Lender as any Borrower's agent for any purpose whatsoever, nor shall Agent or
any Lender be responsible or  liable for any shortage, discrepancy, damage, loss
or destruction of any part of the Collateral wherever the same may be located
and regardless of the cause thereof except for its own gross (not mere)
negligence or willful misconduct.  Neither Agent nor any Lender does by anything
herein or in any Other Document or in any assignment or otherwise, assume any of
the Borrowers' obligations under any contract or agreement assigned to Agent or
such Lender,


                                      -53-
<PAGE>

and neither Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible in any way for the
performance by any Borrower of any of the terms and conditions thereof except
for its own willful misconduct or gross (not mere) negligence.

       4.18   ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS.

              (a)    Each Borrower will maintain the Real Property in
substantial compliance with all Environmental Laws and it will not place or
suffer or permit to be placed any Hazardous Substances on the Real Property
except as not prohibited by applicable law or appropriate governmental
authorities and which are necessary for the operation of the commercial business
of such Borrower or of its tenants.

              (b)    Each Borrower will maintain its current system to assure
and monitor continued compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws which
system includes periodic reviews of such compliance.

              (c)    Each Borrower will dispose of any and all Hazardous Waste
generated at the Real Property only at facilities and with carriers that
maintain valid permits under any applicable Environmental Laws.  Each Borrower
shall use its best efforts to obtain certificates of disposal, such as hazardous
waste manifest receipts, from all treatment, transport, storage or disposal
facilities or operators employed by such Borrower in connection with the
transport or disposal of any Hazardous Waste generated at the Real Property.

              (d)    In the event any Borrower comes into possession of, gives
or receives notice of any Release or threat of Release of a reportable quantity
of any Hazardous Substances at the Real Property or any other site used by such
Borrower to dispose of Hazardous Substances (any such event being hereinafter
referred to as a "Hazardous Discharge") or receives any notice of violation,
request for information or notification that it is potentially responsible for
investigation or cleanup of environmental conditions at the Real Property (or
any other site used by such Borrower to dispose of Hazardous Substances), demand
letter or complaint, order, citation, or other written notice with regard to any
Hazardous Discharge or violation of Environmental Laws affecting the Real
Property (or any other site used by such Borrower to dispose of Hazardous
Substances) or such Borrower's interest therein (any of the foregoing is
referred to herein as an "Environmental Complaint") from any local, state or
federal authority or agency with enforcement rights, including any state agency
responsible in whole or in part for environmental matters in the state in which
the Real Property is located or the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (any such person or entity hereinafter the "Authority"), then such
Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days, give written notice of same to
Agent detailing non-privileged and non-confidential facts and circumstances of
which such Borrower is aware giving rise to the


                                      -54-
<PAGE>

Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint and shall forward copies of
correspondence between the Borrower and the Authority regarding such claims to
Agent until the claim is settled.  Each Borrower shall promptly forward to Agent
copies of all documents and reports concerning a Hazardous Discharge at the Real
Property that such Borrower is required to file under any Environmental Laws.
Such information is to be provided to allow Agent to protect its security
interest in the collateral assignment of Borrowers' lease interest in the Real
Property and is not intended to create nor shall it create any obligation upon
Agent or any Lender with respect thereto.

              (e)    Each Borrower shall respond promptly to any Hazardous
Discharge and within thirty (30) days of receipt of any Environmental Complaint
and take all necessary action in order to comply with all applicable
Environmental Laws and to avoid subjecting the Collateral or Real Property to
any Lien relating to a failure to comply with Environmental Laws; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, if such compliance cannot reasonably be completed within such thirty
(30) day period, such Borrower shall commence such necessary action within such
thirty (30) day period and shall thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceed
to fully comply in all respects and in a timely fashion with all Environmental
Laws.  If any Borrower shall fail to respond promptly to any Hazardous Discharge
or shall fail to respond within a reasonable period of time to any Environmental
Complaint or any Borrower shall fail to diligently and expeditiously proceed to
comply in a timely fashion with any of the requirements of any Environmental
Laws, Agent, on behalf of Lenders, may, in its sole and absolute discretion, but
without the obligation to do so, for the sole purpose of protecting Agent's
interest in Collateral:  (A) give such notices or (B) enter onto the Real
Property (or authorize third parties to enter onto the Real Property) and take
such actions as Agent (or such third parties as directed by Agent) deem
reasonably necessary or advisable, to clean up, remove, mitigate or otherwise
deal with any such Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint in a
commercially reasonable manner.  All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by
Agent or any Lender (or such third parties) in the exercise of any such rights,
including any sums paid in connection with any judicial or administrative
investigation or proceedings, reasonable counsel and consultant fees and
expenses, investigation and laboratory fees and expenses, and fines and
penalties, together with interest thereon from the date expended at the Default
Rate shall be paid upon demand by the applicable Borrower, and until paid shall
be charged to the applicable Borrower's account as an Advance and added to the
Obligations secured by the Liens created by the terms of this Agreement.  Each
Borrower shall execute and deliver, promptly upon request, such instruments as
Agent may reasonably deem useful or necessary to permit Agent to take any such
action, and such additional notes and mortgages, as Agent may require to secure
all sums so advanced or paid by Agent or Lenders.

              (f)    Each Borrower shall defend and indemnify Agent and Lenders
and hold Agent and Lenders harmless from and


                                      -55-
<PAGE>

against all loss, liability, damage and expense, claims, costs, fines and
penalties, including reasonable attorney's fees, suffered or incurred by Agent
or Lenders under or on account of any Environmental Laws in relation to such
Borrower or its Collateral or Real Property, including, without limitation, the
assertion of any lien thereunder, with respect to any Hazardous Discharge, the
presence of any Hazardous Substances affecting the Real Property, whether or not
the same originates or emanates from the Real Property or any contiguous real
estate, except to the extent such loss, liability or damage is directly related
to Agent or Lenders (i) placing any Hazardous Substance on the Real Property,
(ii) failing to properly dispose of Hazardous Waste, (iii) causing a Hazardous
Discharge on the Real Property or (iv) failing to act in a commercially
reasonable manner.  Agent may, in the event it is dissatisfied, in the exercise
of its reasonable judgment, with counsel employed by any Borrower, employ
counsel separate from counsel employed by such Borrower in any such action and
participate in the defense thereof, at the expense of such Borrower.  The
Borrowers' obligations and the indemnifications hereunder shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.

              (g)    If a Lien is filed against any Real Property by any
governmental authority resulting from the need to expend or the actual expending
of monies arising from an action or omission, whether intentional or
unintentional, of any Borrower for which such Borrower is responsible, resulting
in the releasing, spilling, leaking, leaching, pumping, emitting, pouring,
emptying or dumping of any Hazardous Substance into the waters or onto land
located within or without the state where the Real Property is located, then
within thirty (30) days from the date such Borrower is first given notice that
such Lien has been filed against the Real Property (or within such shorter
period of time as may be specified by Agent if such governmental authority has
commenced steps to cause the Real Property to be sold pursuant to such Lien)
either (i) pay the claim and remove the Lien, or (ii) furnish a cash deposit,
bond, or such other security with respect thereto as is satisfactory in all
respects to Agent and is sufficient to effect a complete discharge of such Lien
on the Real Property.  If any Borrower fails to do either (i) or (ii) above in a
timely manner, Agent and Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation,
to do so and all such costs or expenses incurred by Agent and Lenders in
connection therewith, together with interest thereon from the date expended at
the Default Rate shall be paid upon demand by such Borrower and until paid shall
be added to the Obligations secured by the Liens created by the terms of this
Agreement.

       V.  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

       Each Borrower represents and warrants as follows:

       5.1    AUTHORITY.   Each Borrower has full power, authority and legal
right to enter into this Agreement and the Other Documents and perform all
Obligations hereunder and thereunder.  The execution, delivery and performance

                                      -56-
<PAGE>

the Other Documents are within each Borrower's corporate powers, have been duly
authorized, are not in contravention of law or the terms of each Borrower's
by-laws, certificate of incorporation or other applicable documents relating to
each Borrower's formation or to the conduct of each Borrower's business or of

which any Borrower is bound, and will not conflict with or result in any breach
of any of the provisions of or constitute a default under or result in the
creation of any Lien except Permitted Encumbrances upon any asset of any
Borrower under the provisions of any agreement, charter, instrument, by-law, or
other instrument to which any Borrower is a party or by which it may be bound.

       5.2    FORMATION AND QUALIFICATION.  Each Borrower is duly incorporated
and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and is qualified to
do business and is in good standing in the states listed on EXHIBIT 5.2 which
constitute all states in which qualification and good standing are necessary to
conduct its business and own its property and where the failure to so qualify
would have a material adverse effect on its business.  Each Borrower has
delivered to Agent true and complete copies of its certificate of incorporation
and by-laws and will promptly notify Agent of any amendment or changes thereto.

       5.3    SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.  All representations
and warranties of each Borrower contained in this Agreement and the Other
Documents shall be true at the time of such Borrower's execution of this
Agreement and the Other Documents, and shall survive the execution, delivery and

Section 10.7 all Obligations shall be automatically and immediately due and
payable and this Agreement and the obligation of Lenders to make Advances shall
be deemed terminated; (ii) any of the other Events of Default and at any time
thereafter (such default not having previously been cured or waived), at the
option of Required Lenders, all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable
and Required Lenders shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and to
terminate the obligation of Lenders to make Advances and (iii) filing of a
petition against any Borrower in any involuntary case under any state or federal
bankruptcy laws, the obligations of the Lenders to make Advances to such
Borrower hereunder shall be terminated other than as may be permitted by an
appropriate order of the bankruptcy court having jurisdiction over such
Borrower.  In any event, Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all
other rights and remedies provided for herein, under the Uniform Commercial Code
and at law or equity generally, including, without limitation, the right to
foreclose the security interests granted herein and to realize upon any
Collateral by any available judicial procedure and/or to take possession of and
sell any or all of the Collateral with judicial process.  Agent may enter any of
the Borrowers' premises or other premises with required and necessary legal
process and without incurring liability to any Borrower therefor, and Agent may
thereupon, or at any time thereafter in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement, in its discretion without notice or demand, take the Collateral and
remove the same to such place as Agent may deem


                                      -81-
<PAGE>

advisable and Agent may require the Borrowers to make the Collateral available
to Agent at a convenient place.  With or without having the Collateral at the
time or place of sale, Agent may sell the Collateral, or any part thereof, at
public or private sale, at any time or place, in one or more sales, at such
price or prices, and upon such terms, either for cash, credit or future
delivery, as Agent may elect. Except as to that part of the Collateral which is
perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily
sold on a recognized market, Agent shall give the Borrowers reasonable
notification of such sale or sales, it being agreed that in all events written
notice mailed to the Borrowers via overnight mail at least five (5) Business
Days prior to such sale or sales is reasonable notification.  At any public sale
Agent may bid for and become the purchaser, and Agent or any other purchaser at
any such sale thereafter shall hold the Collateral sold absolutely free from any
claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity of redemption and such
right and equity are hereby expressly waived and released by the Borrowers to
the fullest extent permitted by law.  In connection with the exercise of the
foregoing remedies, Agent is granted permission to use all of the Borrowers'
trademarks, trade styles, trade names, patents, patent applications, licenses,
franchises and other proprietary rights which are used in connection with
Inventory for the purpose of disposing of such Inventory.  The proceeds realized
from the sale of any Collateral shall be applied first to the reasonable costs,
reasonable expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees and reasonable expenses
incurred by Agent for collection and for acquisition, completion, protection,
removal, storage, sale and delivery of the Collateral; secondly to interest due
upon any of the Obligations; and thirdly to the principal of the Obligations.
If any deficiency shall arise, Borrowers shall remain liable to Agent and
Lenders therefor.

       11.2   AGENT'S DISCRETION.  Agent shall have the right in its reasonable
discretion to determine which rights, Liens, security interests or remedies
Agent may at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, or modify or to take any
other action with respect thereto and such determination will not in any way
modify or affect any of Agent's or Lenders' rights hereunder.

       11.3   SETOFF.  In addition to any other rights which Agent or any Lender
may have under applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default hereunder, Agent and such Lender shall have a right to apply
any of the Borrowers' property held by Agent or any Lender to reduce the
Obligations.

       11.4   RIGHTS AND REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE.  The enumeration of the
foregoing rights and remedies is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise
of any right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or
remedy, all of which shall be cumulative and not alternative.

shall be binding upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of each of
the Borrowers, Agent and Lenders, shall become effective on the date hereof and
shall continue in full force and effect until the last day of the Term, unless
sooner terminated as herein provided.  In the event the Obligations are prepaid
in full prior to the last day of the Term and this Agreement is thereby
terminated by Borrowers (the date of such prepayment hereinafter referred to as
the "Prepayment Date"), Borrower shall pay an early termination fee in an amount
equal to (x) $1,925,000 if the Prepayment Date occurs from the Effective Date to

any of the Borrowers', Agent's or any Lender's rights, or any of the Obligations
having their inception prior to the effective date of such termination, and the
provisions hereof shall continue to be fully operative until all transactions
entered into, rights or interests created or Obligations have been fully

granted to Agent hereunder and the financing statements filed hereunder shall

under this Agreement have been terminated all of the Obligations of the
Borrowers have been paid or performed in full or the Borrowers have furnished
Agent and Lenders with an indemnification reasonably satisfactory to Agent with
respect to any existing, pending or threatened claims or an existing state of
facts which might, in Agent's reasonable judgment which is exercised in good
faith and not in an arbitrary or capricious manner, give rise to an Obligation
hereunder.  Accordingly, each Borrower waives any rights which it may have under
Section 9-404(1) of the Uniform Commercial Code to demand the filing of
termination statements with respect to the Collateral, and Agent and Lenders
shall not be required to send such termination statements to Borrowers, or to
file them with any filing office, unless and until this Agreement shall have
been terminated in accordance with its terms and all Obligations paid in full in
immediately available funds or satisfied as set forth in the preceding sentence.
If there are no existing, pending or threatened claims or existing state of
facts which might, in Agent's reasonable judgment which is exercised in good
faith and not in an arbitrary or capricious manner, give rise to an Obligation
hereunder and the Obligations of the Borrowers shall have been paid in full and
this Agreement terminated, Agent shall deliver termination statements with
respect to the Collateral to Borrowers.  All representations, warranties,
covenants, waivers and agreements contained herein shall survive termination
hereof until all Obligations are paid or performed in full unless otherwise
provided.

waived), or impair any right consequent thereon.

       14.3   INDEMNITY.  Each Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders from
and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,

litigation, proceeding or investigation instituted or conducted by any
governmental agency or instrumentality or any other Person with respect to any
aspect of, or any transaction contemplated by, or referred to in, or any matter
related to, this Agreement, any Other Documents (whether or not Agent or any
Lender is a party thereto), except to the extent that any of the foregoing
arises out of the gross negligence (but not mere negligence) or willful
misconduct of the party being indemnified.

or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the

              (b)    Each Borrower acknowledges that in the regular course of
commercial banking business one or more Lenders may at any time and from time to
time sell participating interests in the Advances to other financial
institutions (each such transferee or


                                      -86-
<PAGE>

purchaser of a participating interest, a "Transferee").  Each Transferee may
exercise all rights of payment (including without limitation rights of set-off)
with respect to the portion of such Advances held by it or other Obligations
payable hereunder as fully as if such Transferee were the direct holder thereof
provided that Borrowers shall not be required to pay to any Transferee more than
the amount which it would have been required to pay to the Lender which granted
an interest in its Advances or other Obligations payable hereunder to such
Transferee had such Lender retained such interest in the Advances hereunder or
other Obligations payable hereunder and in no event shall Borrowers be required
to pay any such amount arising from the same circumstances and with respect to
the same Advances or other Obligations payable hereunder to both such Lender and
such Transferee.  Each Borrower hereby grants to any Transferee a continuing
security interest in any deposits, moneys or other property actually or
constructively held by such Transferee as security for the Transferee's interest
in the Advances.

              (c)    Any Lender may (i) pledge and assign as collateral to any
Federal Reserve Bank all or a portion of its interest in the Advances hereunder
and (ii) upon the prior written consent of Borrowers and Agent, which consents
shall not be unreasonably withheld, sell, assign or transfer all or any part of
its rights under this Agreement and the Other Documents to one or more
additional banks or financial institutions and one or more additional banks or
financial institutions may commit to make Advances hereunder (each a "Purchasing
Lender"), in minimum amounts of not less than $5,000,000, pursuant to a
Commitment Transfer Supplement, executed by a Purchasing Lender, the Transferor
Lender, and Agent and delivered to Agent for recording.  Upon such execution,
delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the transfer effective date
determined pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i) Purchasing
Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such
Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender
thereunder with a Commitment Percentage as set forth therein, and (ii) the
transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Commitment
Transfer Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement, the
Commitment Transfer Supplement creating a novation for that purpose.  Such
Commitment Transfer Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the
extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such
Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages
arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the
rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement and the
Other Documents.  By consenting to the foregoing, Borrowers hereby agree to the
addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the
Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of
all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under
this Agreement and the Other Documents.  Borrowers shall execute and deliver
such further documents and do such further acts and things in order to
effectuate the foregoing.

              (d)    Agent shall maintain at its address a copy of each
Commitment Transfer Supplement delivered to it and a register (the "Register")
for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Advances owing to each
Lender from time to time.  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in
the absence of manifest error, and Borrowers, Agent and Lenders may treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Advances
recorded therein for the purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be
available for inspection by Borrowers or any Lender at any reasonable time and
from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  Agent shall receive a fee in
the amount of $3,500 payable by the applicable Purchasing Lender upon the
effective date of each transfer or assignment to such Purchasing Lender.

              (e)    Borrowers authorize each Lender to disclose to any
Transferee or Purchasing Lender and any prospective Transferee or Purchasing
Lender any and all financial information in such Lender's possession concerning
Borrowers which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of Borrowers
pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with such Lender's credit evaluation
of Borrowers.

       14.5   APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS.  Following the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, Agent shall have the continuing and
exclusive right to apply or reverse and re-apply any and all proceeds of
Collateral to any portion of the Obligations.  To the extent that any Borrower
makes a payment or Agent or any Lender receives any payment or proceeds of the
Collateral for Borrowers' benefit, which are subsequently invalidated, declared
to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a
trustee, debtor in possession, receiver, custodian or any other party under any
bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then, to such extent, the
Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and
continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Agent or such
Lender.

       14.6   NOTICE.  Any notice or request hereunder may be given to
Borrowers, Agent or to any Lender at the respective addresses set forth below or
at such other address as may hereafter be specified in a notice designated as a
notice of change of address under this Section.  Any notice or request hereunder

or to a duly authorized officer of the recipient in the event the recipient is

                                      -89-

       14.8   EXPENSES.  All reasonable costs and expenses including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by (a) Agent in its efforts to
enforce payment of any Obligation or effect collection of any Collateral, or (b)
Agent in connection with the entering into, modification, amendment and
enforcement of this Agreement or any consents or waivers hereunder and all
related agreements, documents and instruments, or (c) Agent or any Lender in
instituting, maintaining, preserving, enforcing and foreclosing of or on Agent's
security interest or Lien in any of the Collateral, whether through judicial
proceedings or otherwise, or (d) Agent or any Lender in defending or prosecuting

transactions with the Borrowers, or (e) Agent in connection with any legal
advice given to Agent or any Lender with respect to its rights and obligations
under this Agreement and all related agreements other than with respect to
disputes between Agent, any Lender or any Transferee(s), may be charged to the
Borrowers' accounts and shall be part of the Obligations.

       14.9   INJUNCTIVE RELIEF.  Each Borrower recognizes that, in the event
such Borrower fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations or
liabilities under this Agreement, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate
relief to Agent and Lenders; therefore, each Lender, if such Lender so requests,
shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case
without the necessity of proving actual damages to the extent permitted by law.

       14.10  CAPTIONS.  The captions at various places in this Agreement are

arising from any breach of contract, tort or other wrong relating to the
establishment, administration or collection of the Obligations.

       14.14  CONSTRUCTION.  The parties acknowledge that each party and its
counsel have reviewed this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to

schedules or exhibits thereto.

       XV.    BORROWING AGENCY.

       15.1.  BORROWING AGENCY PROVISIONS.

              (a)    Borrowers hereby irrevocably designate Greenwich to be
their attorney and agent and in such capacity to borrow, sign and endorse notes,
and execute and deliver all instruments, documents, writings and further
assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, on behalf of Borrowers, and
hereby authorize Agent and Lenders to pay over or credit all loan proceeds
hereunder in accordance with the request of Greenwich.

              (b)    The handling of this credit facility as a co-borrowing
facility with a borrowing agent in the manner set forth in this Agreement is
solely as an accommodation to the Borrowers and at their request.  Neither Agent
nor any Lender shall incur liability to the Borrowers as a result thereof.  To
induce Agent and each Lender to do so and in consideration thereof, each
Borrower hereby indemnifies Agent and Lenders and holds Agent and Lenders
harmless from and against any and all liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and
claims of damage or injury asserted against Agent or any Lender by any Person
arising from or incurred by reason of the handling of the financing arrangements
of the Borrowers as provided herein, reliance by Agent or any Lender on any
request or instruction from Greenwich or any other action taken by Agent or any
Lender with respect to this Section 15.1 except due to gross negligence (but not
mere negligence) or willful misconduct by the indemnified party.

              (c)    Except as set forth in Section 15.1(d) below, all
Obligations shall be joint and several, and each Borrower shall make payment
upon the maturity of the Obligations by acceleration or otherwise, and such
obligation and liability on the part of each Borrower shall in no way be
affected by any extensions, renewals and forbearance granted by Agent or any
Lender to any Borrower, failure of Agent or any Lender to give any Borrower
notice of borrowing or any other notice, any failure of Agent or any Lender to
pursue or preserve its rights against any Borrower, the release by Agent of any
Collateral now or hereafter acquired from any Borrower, and such agreement by
each Borrower to pay upon any notice issued pursuant thereto is unconditional
and unaffected by prior recourse by Agent or any Lender to the other Borrower or
any Collateral for such Borrowers' Obligations or the lack thereof.

       15.2.  WAIVER OF SUBROGATION.  Each Borrower expressly waives any and all
rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution or
any other claim which such Borrower may now or hereafter have against any other
Borrower or any other Person directly or contingently liable for the Obligations
hereunder, or against or with respect to any other Borrower's property
(including, without limitation, any property which is


                                      -91-
<PAGE>

Collateral for the Obligations), arising from the existence or performance of
this Agreement.

       XVI.   REGARDING AGENT.

       16.1.  APPOINTMENT.  Each Lender hereby designates BNYCC to act as Agent
for such Lender under this Agreement and the Other Documents.  Each Lender
hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf under the
provisions of this Agreement and the Other Documents and to exercise such powers
and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically
delegated to or required of Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and Agent shall hold all Collateral,
payments of principal and interest, fees (except the fees set forth in Section
3.2 and the Fee Letter), and collections received pursuant to this Agreement,
for the ratable benefit of Lenders.  Agent may perform any of its duties
hereunder by or through its agents or employees.  As to any matters not
expressly provided for by this Agreement (including without limitation,
collection of the Notes), Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion
or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and
shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the
instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Agent shall not be required to take any action which
exposes Agent to liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or the Other
Documents or applicable law unless Agent is furnished with an indemnification
reasonably satisfactory to Agent with respect thereto.

       16.2.  NATURE OF DUTIES.  Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities
except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Other Documents.
Neither Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be
(i) liable for any action taken or omitted by them as such hereunder or in
connection herewith, unless caused by their willful misconduct or gross (not
mere) negligence, or (ii) responsible in any manner for any recitals,
statements, representations or warranties made by any Borrower or any officer
thereof contained in this Agreement, or in any of the Other Documents or in any
certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in,
or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any of the
Other Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness,
enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, or any of the Other Documents
or for any failure of any Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder.  Agent
shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to
the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or
conditions of, this Agreement or any of the Other Documents, or to inspect the
properties, books or records of any Borrower.  The duties of Agent as respects
the Advances to Borrowers shall be mechanical and administrative in nature;
Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in
respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is


                                      -92-
<PAGE>

intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Agent any obligations in
respect of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein.

       16.3.  LACK OF RELIANCE ON AGENT AND RESIGNATION.  Independently and
without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender, each Lender has made and shall
continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial
condition and affairs of each Borrower in connection with the making and the
continuance of the Advances hereunder and the taking or not taking of any action
in connection herewith, and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of
each Borrower.  Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or
on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other
information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before
making of the Advances or at any time or times thereafter except as shall be
provided by any Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof.  Agent shall not be
responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information,
representations or warranties herein or in any agreement, document, certificate
or statement delivered in connection with or for the execution, effectiveness,
genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any Other Document, or of the financial condition of any Borrower,
or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or
observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement, the
Other Documents or the financial condition of any Borrower, or the existence of
any Event of Default or any Incipient Event of Default.

       Agent may resign on sixty (60) days' written notice to each of Lenders
and Borrowers and upon such resignation, the Required Lenders will promptly
designate a successor Agent reasonably satisfactory to Borrowers.

       Any such successor Agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties
of Agent, and the term "Agent" shall mean such successor agent effective upon
its appointment, and the former Agent's rights, powers and duties as Agent shall
be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such
former Agent.  After any Agent's resignation as Agent, the provisions of this
Article XVI shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

       16.4.  CERTAIN RIGHTS OF AGENT.  If Agent shall request instructions from
Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in
connection with this Agreement or any Other Document, Agent shall be entitled to
refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have
received instructions from the Required Lenders; and Agent shall not incur
liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.  Without limiting the
foregoing, Lenders shall not have any right of action whatsoever against Agent
as a result of its acting or refraining


                                      -93-
<PAGE>

from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required
Lenders.

       16.5.  RELIANCE.  Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement,
certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, order or other
document or telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to
have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or entity, and, with respect
to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and the Other Documents and
its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.  Agent may employ
agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be liable for the default or
misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by Agent with
reasonable care.

       16.6.  NOTICE OF DEFAULT.  Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default
hereunder or under the Other Documents, unless Agent has received notice from a
Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement or the Other Documents,
describing such Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default and stating that
such notice is a "notice of default".  In the event that Agent receives such a
notice, Agent shall give notice thereof to Lenders.  Agent shall take such
action with respect to such Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default as
shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; PROVIDED, THAT, unless and
until Agent shall have received such directions, Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect
to such Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default as it shall deem
advisable in the best interests of Lenders.

       16.7.  INDEMNIFICATION.  To the extent Agent is not reimbursed and
indemnified by Borrowers, each Lender will reimburse and indemnify Agent in
proportion to its respective portion of the Advances (or, if no Advances are
outstanding, according to its Commitment Percentage), from and against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which
may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent in performing its
duties hereunder, or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or
any Other Document; PROVIDED THAT, Lenders shall not be liable for any portion
of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent's gross
negligence (but not mere negligence) or willful misconduct.

       16.8.  AGENT IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY.  With respect to the obligation
of Agent to lend under this Agreement, the Advances made by it shall have the
same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and as if it were not
performing the duties as Agent specified herein; and the term "Lender" or any
similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include
Agent in


                                      -94-
<PAGE>

its individual capacity as a Lender.  Agent may engage in business with any
Borrower as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may
accept fees and other consideration from any Borrower for services in connection
with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to
Lenders.

       16.9.  DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS.  To the extent Agent receives documents and
information from any Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Agent
will promptly furnish such documents and information to Lenders.

       16.10. BORROWERS' UNDERTAKING TO AGENT.  Without prejudice to their
respective obligations to Lenders under the other provisions of this Agreement,
each Borrower hereby undertakes with Agent to pay to Agent from time to time on
demand all amounts from time to time due and payable by it for the account of
Agent or Lenders or any of them pursuant to this Agreement to the extent not
already paid.  Any payment made pursuant to any such demand shall PRO TANTO
satisfy the relevant Borrower's obligations to make payments for the account of
Lenders or the relevant one or more of them pursuant to this Agreement.
