                    WHEREAS, Section 8 of the Mortgage provides that the
          form of each series of bonds (other than the First Series) issued
          thereunder shall be established by Resolution of the Board of
          Directors of the Company and that the form of such series, as
          established by said Board of Directors, shall specify the
          descriptive title of the bonds and various other terms thereof,
          and may also contain such provisions not inconsistent with the
          provisions of the Indenture as the Board of Directors may, in its
          discretion, cause to be inserted therein expressing or referring
          to the terms and conditions upon which such bonds are to be
          issued and/or secured under the Indenture; and

                    WHEREAS, Section 120 of the Mortgage provides, among

          restriction if already restricted, and the Company may enter into
          any future covenants, limitations or restrictions for the benefit
          of any one or more series of bonds issued thereunder, or the
          Company may cure any ambiguity contained therein or in any
          supplemental indenture or may establish the terms and provisions
          of any series of bonds other than said First Series, by an
          instrument in writing executed and acknowledged by the Company in
          such manner as would be necessary to entitle a conveyance of real
          estate to record in all of the States in which any property at
          the time subject to the lien of the Indenture shall be situated;
          and

          institutions in The City of New York are authorized or obligated
          by law, executive decree or governmental decree to be closed.

                    If the Callholder (as defined below) elects to purchase
          this bond pursuant to the Call Option (as defined below), the
          Calculation Agent (as defined below) will reset the interest rate
          for this bond effective on the Coupon Reset Date, pursuant to the
          Coupon Reset Process described below; provided, however, that the
          annual interest rate on this bond shall not under any
          circumstance exceed 9% (the "Maximum Rate").  In such
          circumstance, (i) this bond will be purchased from the holder(s)
          by the Callholder at a price equal to 100% of the principal
          amount thereof on the Coupon Reset Date, on the terms and subject
          to the conditions described herein (interest accrued to the
          Coupon Reset Date will be paid by the Company on such date to
          holder(s) as of the most recent Record Date), and (ii) on and
          after the Coupon Reset Date, this bond will bear interest at the
          Coupon Reset Rate determined by the Calculation Agent in
          accordance with the procedures set forth below.

                    This bond [is a temporary bond and] is one of an issue
          of bonds of the Company issuable in series and is one of a series
          known as its First Mortgage Bonds, 6 1/8% REset Put Securities
          Series Due 2006 ("Bonds"), the bonds of this series being limited
          to $200 million in aggregate principal amount, all bonds of all
          series issued and to be issued under and equally secured (except
          insofar as any sinking or other fund, established in accordance
          with the provisions of the Mortgage hereinafter mentioned, may
          afford additional security for the bonds of any particular
          series) by a Mortgage and Deed of Trust (herein, together with
          any indenture supplemental thereto, including the Sixty-sixth
          Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 1, 1998, called the
          Mortgage), dated as of October 1, 1945, executed by the Company
          to Guaranty Trust Company of New York (Bankers Trust Company,
          successor), as Trustee.  Reference is made to the Mortgage and to
          any resolutions or written orders filed with the Trustee with
          respect to the Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture or this bond
          for a description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the
          nature and extent of the security, the rights of the holders of
          the bonds and of the Trustee in respect thereof, the duties and
          immunities of the Trustee and the terms and conditions upon which
          the bonds are and are to be secured and the circumstances under
          which additional bonds may be issued.  With the consent of the
          Company and to the extent permitted by and as provided in the
          Mortgage, the rights and obligations of the Company and/or the
          rights of the holders of the bonds and/or coupons and/or the
          terms and provisions of the Mortgage may be modified or altered
          by such affirmative vote or votes of the holders of bonds then
          outstanding as are specified in the Mortgage.  

                    The principal hereof may be declared or may become due
          prior to the Final Maturity Date hereinbefore named on the
          conditions, in the manner and at the time set forth in the
          Mortgage, upon the occurrence of a default as in the Mortgage
          provided.

                    This bond is transferable as prescribed in the Mortgage
          by the registered owner hereof in person, or by his duly
          authorized attorney, at the office or agency of the Company in
          the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, upon surrender
          and cancellation of this bond, and, thereupon, a new fully
          registered temporary or definitive bond of the same series for a
          like principal amount and like other terms will be issued to the
          transferee in exchange herefor as provided in the Mortgage.  The
          Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose
          name this bond is registered as the absolute owner and holder
          hereof for the purpose of receiving payment and for all other
          purposes and neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be
          affected by any notice to the contrary.

                    [In the manner prescribed in the Mortgage, this
          temporary bond is exchangeable at the office or agency of the
          Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York,
          without charge, for a definitive bond or bonds of the same series
          of a like aggregate principal amount and like other terms when
          such definitive bonds are prepared and ready for delivery.  In
          the manner prescribed in the Mortgage, this temporary bond is
          exchangeable upon surrender thereof at said office or agency for
          a like aggregate principal amount of bonds with like other terms
          in temporary form of this series of other authorized
          denominations.]

                    As provided in the Mortgage, the Company shall not be
          required to make transfers or exchanges of bonds of this series
          for a period of ten (10) days next preceding any interest payment
          date for bonds of this series.

                    No recourse shall be had for the payment of the
          principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on this bond
          against any incorporator or any past, present or future
          subscriber to the capital stock, stockholder, officer or director
          of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, as
          such, either directly or through the Company or any predecessor
          or successor corporation, under any rule of law, statute or
          constitution or by the enforcement of any assessment or
          otherwise, all such liability of incorporators, subscribers,
          stockholders, officers and directors being released by the holder
          or owner hereof by the acceptance of this bond and being likewise
          waived and released by the terms of the Mortgage.

               This bond shall not become obligatory until Bankers Trust
          Company, the Trustee under the Mortgage, or its successor
          thereunder, shall have signed the form of authentication
          certificate endorsed hereon.

          CALL OPTION; MANDATORY PUT

                    (i)  Call Option.  By giving irrevocable notice to the
          Trustee in the manner described below (the "Call Notice"), the
          Company has the right to purchase all of the Bonds (including
          this bond), in whole but not in part, on the Coupon Reset Date
          (the "Call Option"), at a price equal to 100% of the principal
          amount thereof (the "Call Price").  The Company may assign to
          Morgan Stanley & Co. International Limited all its right, title
          and interest and obligation in, to and under the Call Option, and
          the Company, or in the event of such an assignment, Morgan
          Stanley & Co. International Limited, and any successor thereof,
          is herein referred to as the "Callholder".  The Callholder will
          be required to give the Call Notice to the Trustee, in writing,
          prior to 4:00 p.m., New York City time, no later than fifteen
          calendar days prior to the Coupon Reset Date.  The Call Notice
          shall contain delivery details satisfactory to the Trustee,
          including the identity of the Callholder's account with the
          Depositary (as defined below).  If the Callholder exercises the
          Call Option by giving the Call Notice, (i) not later than 2:00
          p.m., New York City time on the Business Day prior to the Coupon
          Reset Date, the Callholder shall pay the amount of the Call Price
          in immediately available funds to the Trustee for payment of the
          Call Price to the holders of the Bonds (including this bond) on
          the Coupon Reset Date and (ii) the holders of this bond will be
          required to deliver, and will be deemed to have delivered, this
          bond against payment therefor on the Coupon Reset Date through
          the facilities of The Depositary Trust Company or its successor,
          as Depository for the Bonds (the "Depository"), and will be
          required to accept the Call Price on such date in full
          satisfaction of this bond.  The Callholder is not required to
          exercise the Call Option, and no holder of this bond or any      
          interest therein will have any right or claim against the
          Callholder as a result of the Callholder's decision whether or
          not to exercise the Call Option or performance or nonperformance
          of its obligations with respect thereto.

                    (ii) Mandatory Put.  If the Callholder does not
          purchase the Bonds on the Coupon Reset Date for any reason, the
          Trustee will be obligated to exercise on behalf of the holders of
          this bond the right to require the Company to purchase this bond,
          in whole but not in part (the "Mandatory Put"), on the Coupon
          Reset Date at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount
          thereof (the "Put Price"),  and by its purchase hereof, each
          holder irrevocably agrees that the Trustee shall exercise the
          Mandatory Put for and on its behalf as provided herein.  If the
          Trustee exercises the Mandatory Put, then the Company shall
          deliver the Put Price in immediately available funds to the
          Trustee by no later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the
          Coupon Reset Date, and the holders of this bond will be required
          to deliver, and will be deemed to have delivered, this bond to
          the Company against payment therefor on the Coupon Reset Date
          through the facilities of the Depository, and will be required to
          accept the Put Price on such date in full satisfaction of this
          bond.  No holder of this bond or any interest therein has the
          right to consent or object to the exercise of the Trustee's
          duties under the Mandatory Put.

          COUPON RESET PROCESS

                    Pursuant to and subject to the terms of a Calculation
          Agency Agreement, dated as of May 5, 1998 between the Company and
          Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, Morgan Stanley & Co.
          Incorporated has been appointed the calculation agent for the
          Bonds (in such capacity as calculation agent, the "Calculation
          Agent", which term shall include any successor).  If the
          Callholder exercises the Call Option, then the following steps
          (the "Coupon Reset Process") shall be taken in order to determine
          the interest rate to be paid on the Bonds (including this bond)
          from and including such Coupon Reset Date to but excluding the
          Final Maturity Date (the "Coupon Reset Rate").  The Calculation
          Agency Agreement provides that the Company and the Calculation
          Agent will use reasonable efforts to cause the actions
          contemplated below to be completed in as timely a manner as
          possible.

                         (a)  The Company will provide the Calculation
                    Agent with (i) a list (the "Dealer List") no later than
                    five Business Days prior to the Coupon Reset Date,
                    containing the names and addresses of three dealers,
                    one of which shall be Morgan Stanley & Co.
                    Incorporated, from which the Company desires the
                    Calculation Agent to obtain Bids (as defined below) for
                    the purchase of the Bonds and (ii) such other material 
                    reasonably requested by the Calculation Agent to
                    facilitate a successful Coupon Reset Process.

                         (b)  Within one Business Day following receipt by
                    the Calculation Agent of the Dealer List, the
                    Calculation Agent will provide to each dealer
                    ("Dealer") on the Dealer List (i) a copy of the
                    Prospectus Supplement dated April 28, 1998, together
                    with the accompanying Prospectus dated April 2, 1998,
                    relating to the offering of the Bonds, (ii) a copy of
                    the form of Bonds and (iii) a written request that each
                    Dealer submit a Bid to the Calculation Agent by 12:00
                    noon, New York City time, on the third Business Day
                    prior to the Coupon Reset Date (the "Bid Date").  The
                    time on the Bid Date upon which Bids will be requested
                    may be changed by the Calculation Agent to as late as
                    3:00 p.m., New York City time.  "Bid" means an
                    irrevocable written offer given by a Dealer for the
                    purchase of all Bonds, settling on the Coupon Reset
                    Date, quoted by such Dealer as a stated yield to
                    maturity on the Bonds ("Yield to Maturity").  Each
                    Dealer will also be provided with (i) the name of the
                    Company, (ii) an estimate of the Purchase Price (stated
                    as a U.S. dollar amount and calculated by the
                    Calculation Agent in accordance with paragraph (c)
                    below), (iii) the principal amount and Final Maturity
                    Date of the Bonds and (iv) the method by which interest
                    will be calculated on the Bonds, including this bond.

                         (c)  The purchase price to be paid by any Dealer
                    for the Bonds (the "Purchase Price") will be equal to
                    (i) the principal amount of the Bonds, plus (ii) a
                    premium (the "Bond Premium") which shall be equal to
                    the excess, if any, of (A) the discounted present value
                    to the Coupon Reset Date of a bond with a maturity of
                    May 1, 2006 which has an interest rate of 5.72%, semi-
                    annual interest payments on each May 1 and November 1,
                    commencing November 1, 2001, and a principal amount
                    equal to the principal amount of the Bonds, and
                    assuming a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate
                    over (B) the principal amount of the Bonds.  The
                    "Treasury Rate" means the per annum rate equal to the
                    offer side yield to maturity of the current on-the-run
                    five-year United States Treasury Security per Telerate
                    page 500 (or any successor or substitute page as may
                    replace such page on such service), at 11:00 a.m., New
                    York City time, on the Bid Date (or such other time or
                    date that may be agreed upon by the Company and the
                    Calculation Agent) or, if such rate does not appear on
                    Telerate page 500 (or any successor or substitute page
                    as may replace such page on such service), at such
                    time, such rate on GovPX End-of-Day Pricing at 3:00
                    p.m., New York City time, on the Bid Date (or such
                    other time or date that may be agreed upon by the
                    Company and the Calculation Agent).

                         (d)  The Calculation Agent will provide written
                    notice to the Company by 12:30 p.m., New York City time
                    on the Bid Date (or within 1/2 hour following the
                    deadline for submission of Bids, if the deadline has
                    been extended as provided above) setting forth (i) the
                    names of each of the Dealers from which the Calculation
                    Agent received Bids on the Bid Date, (ii) the Bid
                    submitted by each such Dealer and (iii) the Purchase
                    Price as determined pursuant to paragraph (c) above. 
                    Unless the Call Option has terminated, the Calculation
                    Agent will thereafter select from the Bids timely
                    received the Bid with the lowest Yield to Maturity (the
                    "Selected Bid") and set the Coupon Reset Rate to be the
                    lesser of the Maximum Rate and the rate required to
                    produce a semi-annual bond equivalent yield on the
                    Bonds equal to the Yield to Maturity indicated by the
                    Selected Bid and assuming a purchase price of 100% plus
                    the Bond Premium on the Coupon Reset Date and payment
                    of the Bonds on the Final Maturity Date; provided,
                    however, that if any two or more of the lowest Bids
                    submitted are equivalent, the Company shall in its sole
                    discretion select any of such equivalent Bids (and such
                    selected Bid shall be the Selected Bid).  The exercise
                    of the Call Option by the Callholder shall constitute
                    its agreement that the selection of the Selected Bid by
                    the Calculation Agent shall constitute acceptance by
                    the Callholder of the Selected Bid.

                         (e)  Immediately after calculating the Coupon
                    Reset Rate for this bond, the Calculation Agent will
                    provide written notice to the Company and the Trustee,
                    setting forth the Coupon Reset Rate.  The Coupon Reset
                    Rate for this bond will be effective from and including
                    the Coupon Reset Date.

                    If at any time prior to the sale of this bond on the
          Bid Date (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
          under any of clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (g) of Section 65 of
          the Mortgage or a Cross-Default (as defined below) has occurred
          and is continuing, the Callholder may terminate the Call Option
          by written notice to the Company and the Trustee; and (ii) if any
          Event of Default under clauses (e) or (f) of Section 65 of the
          Mortgage has occurred and is continuing, the Call Option shall
          immediately and automatically terminate.  If, following the
          exercise of the Call Option (x) the Calculation Agent determines
          that a Market Disruption Event (as defined below) has occurred
          and is continuing, and as a result thereof, the Callholder fails
          to pay the Call Price by 2:00 p.m., New York City time on the
          Business Day immediately preceding the Coupon Reset Date, or (y)
          fewer than two Dealers have submitted Bids in a timely manner
          substantially as provided above, the exercise of the Call Option
          will be automatically revoked, and the Call Option shall
          immediately terminate.  If the Call Option terminates as
          described above, the Trustee will exercise the Mandatory Put on
          behalf of the holders of the Bonds on the Coupon Reset Date. 
          "Cross-Default" means the occurrence or existence of (a) a
          default, event of default or other similar condition or event
          (however described) in respect of the Company (after giving
          effect to any applicable notice requirement or grace period), in
          one or more agreements or instruments relating to any obligation
          (whether present or future, contingent or otherwise, as principal
          or surety or otherwise) for the payment or repayment of any money
          ("Specified Indebtedness"), individually or collectively, in an
          aggregate amount of not less than $100,000,000 which has resulted
          in such Specified Indebtedness becoming, or becoming capable at
          such time of being declared due and payable under such agreements
          or instruments, before it would otherwise have been due and
          payable or (b) a default by the Company in making one or more
          payments on the due date thereof in an aggregate amount of not
          less than $100,000,000 under such agreements or instruments
          (after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or
          grace period).  "Market Disruption Event" means any of the
          following if such events occur and are continuing on any day from
          and including the date of the Call Notice to and including the
          Bid Date in the judgment of the Calculation Agent: (i) a
          suspension or material limitation in trading in securities

               This bond is one of the bonds, of the series herein
          designated, described or provided for in the within-mentioned
          Mortgage.

                                 BANKERS TRUST COMPANY,
                                             as Trustee


                                 By___________________________
                                       Authorized Officer


               [Unless and until this bond is exchanged in whole or in part
          for certificated bonds registered in the names of the various
          beneficial holders hereof as then certified to the Trustee by The
          Depository Trust Company or its successor (the "Depositary"),
          this bond 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 or another nominee of the Depositary
          or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor
          Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

               Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized
          representative of the Depositary to the Company or its agent for
          registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any
          certificate to be issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co.,
          or in such other name as is requested by an authorized
          representative of the Depositary and any amount payable
          thereunder is made payable to Cede & Co., or such other name, ANY
          TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR
          TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL since the registered owner hereof, Cede
          & Co., has an interest herein.

               This bond may be exchanged for certificated bonds registered
          in the names of the various beneficial owners hereof if (a) the
          Depositary is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as
          depositary and a successor depositary is not appointed by the
          Company within 90 days, or (b) the Company elects to issue
          certificated bonds to beneficial owners (as certified to the
          Company by the Depositary).]

                                  [End of Bond Form]

                    (II)  The Company has initially designated The
          Depository Trust Company as the Depository (the "Depository") for
          the bonds of the Seventy-fourth series.  For as long as the bonds
          of the Seventy-fourth series are registered in the name of the
          Depository or its nominee, all payments of interest, principal
          and other amounts in respect of such bonds may be made to the
          Depository or its nominee in accordance with the Depository's
          applicable procedures.  Notwithstanding any provision hereof or
          in the Indenture, none of the Company, the Callholder, or the
          Trustee, nor any agent of any such person, shall have any
          responsibility with respect to the Depository's procedures or for
          any payments, transfers or other transactions, or any notices or
          other communications, among the Depository, any of its direct or
          indirect participants and any beneficial owners of such bonds. 
          Each of the Company, the Callholder, the Trustee and any agent
          for any such person may treat the registered holder as the sole
          and exclusive owner of the bonds of the Seventy-fourth series for
          all purposes under the Indenture, including for making payments
          on such bonds and for providing notices and obtaining consents
          under the Indenture.

                    The Trustee agrees to exercise the Mandatory Put on
          behalf of the holders of the bonds of the Seventy-fourth series
          as provided in the form of such bonds set forth herein.  In
          anticipation of the exercise of the Call Option or the Mandatory
          Put on the Coupon Reset Date, the Trustee will notify the
          registered holders of such Bonds, not less than 30 days nor more
          than 60 days prior to the Coupon Reset Date, in the manner
          provided in the Indenture, that all bonds of the Seventy-fourth
          series are required to be delivered on the Coupon Reset Date
          against payment of the Call Price by the Callholder under the
          Call Option or payment of the Put Price by the Company under the
          Mandatory Put.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
          no failure to give any such notice or any defect in any notice so
          given shall affect the requirement to deliver the bonds or the
          validity of the proceedings for such delivery, on the Coupon
          Reset Date as provided herein.

                    At the option of the registered owner, any bonds of the
          Seventy-fourth Series, upon surrender thereof, for cancellation,
          at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of
          Manhattan, The City of New York, shall be exchangeable for a like
          aggregate principal amount of bonds of the same series, interest
          rate and maturity of other authorized denominations.

                    Bonds of the Seventy-fourth Series shall be
          transferable, upon the surrender thereof for cancellation,
          together with a written instrument of transfer in form approved
          by the registrar duly executed by the registered owner or by his
          duly authorized attorney, at the office or agency of the Company
          in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.

                    Upon any transfer or exchange of bonds of the Seventy-
          fourth Series, the Company may make a charge therefor sufficient
          to reimburse it for any tax or taxes or other governmental
          charge, as provided in Section 12 of the Mortgage, but the
          Company hereby waives any right to make a charge in addition
          thereto for any exchange or transfer of bonds of the Seventy-
          fourth Series.

                    The holders of bonds of the Seventy-fourth Series
          consent that the Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix
          a record date for the purpose of determining the holders of bonds
          of the Seventy-fourth Series entitled to consent to any
          amendment, supplement or waiver.  If a record date is fixed,
          those persons who were holders at such record date (or their duly
          designated proxies), and only those persons, shall be entitled to
          consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver or to revoke any
          consent previously given, whether or not such persons continue to
          be holders after such record date.  No such consent shall be
          valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date.

                    SECTION 2.  Subject to the provisions of Section 3
          hereof, the Company covenants and agrees that the provisions of
          Section 39 of the Mortgage, which were to remain in effect so
          long as any bonds of the First Series remained Outstanding, shall
          remain in full force and effect so long as any bonds of the
          Seventy-fourth Series are Outstanding.

                    Clause (d) of subsection (II) of Section 4 of the
          Mortgage, as heretofore amended, is hereby further amended by
          inserting the words "and Seventy-fourth Series" after the words
          "and Seventy-third Series" each time such words appear therein.

                    Clause (6) and clause (e) of Section 5 of the Mortgage
          and Section 29 of the Mortgage, as heretofore amended, are hereby
          further amended by inserting therein "Seventy-fourth" before
          "Seventy-third" each time such words occur therein.


                                     ARTICLE III

                               MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

                    SECTION 3.  The Company reserves the right to make such
          amendments to the Mortgage, as supplemented, as shall be
          necessary in order to delete subsection (I) of Section 39 of the
          Mortgage, and each holder of bonds of the Seventy-fourth Series
          hereby consents to such deletion without any other or further
          action by any holder of bonds of the Seventy-fourth Series.



                    SECTION 4.  Pursuant to the right reserved in Section 4
          of the Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture, the Company hereby
          amends the Mortgage, as supplemented, to amend Article XIX to
          read as described in said Section 4.

                    SECTION 5.  The terms defined in the Mortgage, as
          heretofore supplemented, shall, for all purposes of this Sixty-
          sixth Supplemental Indenture, have the meanings specified in the
          Mortgage, as heretofore supplemented.

                    SECTION 6.  Whenever in this Sixty-sixth Supplemental
          Indenture either of the parties hereto is named or referred to,
          this shall, subject to the provisions of Articles XVI and XVII of
          the Mortgage, be deemed to include the successors and assigns of
          such party, and all the covenants and agreements in this Sixty-
          sixth Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the
          Company, or by or on behalf of the Trustee shall, subject as
          aforesaid, bind and inure to the respective benefits of the
          respective successors and assigns of such parties, whether so
          expressed or not.

                    SECTION 7.  So long as any bonds of the Seventy-fourth
          Series remain Outstanding, unless this provision shall have been
          waived in writing by the holders of seventy per centum (70%) in
          aggregate principal amount of bonds of the Seventy-fourth Series
          Outstanding at the time of such consent, subdivision (c) of
          Section 65 of the Mortgage shall read as follows:

                         "(c)  Failure to pay interest or premium, if any,
                    upon or principal (whether at maturity as therein
                    expressed or by declaration, or otherwise) of any
                    Outstanding Qualified Lien Bonds or of any outstanding
                    indebtedness secured by any mortgage or other lien (not
                    included in the term Excepted Encumbrances) prior to
                    the lien of this Indenture, existing upon any property
                    of the Company which is subject to the lien and
                    operation of this Indenture continued beyond the period
                    of grace, if any, specified in such mortgage or
                    Qualified Lien or other lien securing the same;"

                    SECTION 8.  A breach of a specified covenant or
          agreement of the Company contained in this Sixty-sixth
          Supplemental Indenture shall become a Default under the Indenture
          upon the happening of the events provided in Section 65(g) of the
          Mortgage with respect to such a covenant or agreement.

                    SECTION 9.  The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts

          whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of
          this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of
          the recitals contained herein, all of which recitals are made by
          the Company solely.  Each and every term and condition contained
          in Article XVII of the Mortgage, as heretofore amended by said
          First through Sixty-fifth Supplemental Indentures, shall apply to
          and form part of this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture with the
          same force and effect as if the same were herein set forth in
          full with such omissions, variations and insertions, if any, as
          may be appropriate to make the same conform to the provisions of
          this  Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture.

          Indenture, expressed or implied, is intended, or shall be
          construed, to confer upon, or to give to, any person, firm or
          corporation, other than the parties hereto and the holders of the
          bonds and coupons Outstanding under the Indenture, any right,

          conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Sixty-
          sixth Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the

          shall be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be
          an original and all of which shall constitute but one and the
          same instrument.
