or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required,
to the Company. Such instrument or instruments and any such record (and the
action



                                       10

embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to
as the "Act" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments or so voting
at any such meeting. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing
appointing any such agent, or of the holding by any Person of a Security, shall
be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 612 and
TIA Sections 315(a) through 315(d)) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the
Company and any agent of the Trustee or the Company, if made in the manner
provided in this Section. The record of any meeting of Holders of Securities
shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 1506.

         (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such
execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by
law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing
such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such
execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual
capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof
of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or
writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved
in any other reasonable manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

         (c) The ownership of Registered Securities shall be proved by the
Security Register or by a certificate of the Security Registrar.

         (d) The ownership of Bearer Securities may be proved by the production
of such Bearer Securities or by a certificate executed, as depository, by any
trust company, bank, banker or other depository, wherever situated, if such
certificate shall be deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory, showing that at
the date therein mentioned such Person had on deposit with such depository, or
exhibited to it, the Bearer Securities therein described; or such facts may be
proved by the certificate or affidavit of the Person holding such Bearer
Securities, if such certificate or affidavit is deemed by the Trustee to be
satisfactory. The Trustee and the Company may assume that such ownership of any
Bearer Security continues until (1) another certificate or affidavit bearing a
later date issued in respect of the same Bearer Security is produced, or (2)
such Bearer Security is produced to the Trustee by some other Person, or (3)
such Bearer Security is surrendered in exchange for a Registered Security, or
(4) such Bearer Security is no longer Outstanding. The ownership of Bearer
Securities may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems
sufficient.

         (e) If the Company shall solicit from the Holders of Registered
Securities any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other Act, the Company may, at its option, in or pursuant to a Board
Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders
entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so.
Notwithstanding TIA Section 316(c), such record date shall be the record date
specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not
earlier than the date 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders
generally in connection therewith and not later than the date such solicitation
is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given
before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of
business on such record date shall be deemed to be



                                       11

Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite
proportion of Outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to
such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities shall be computed as of
such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by
the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become
effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven
months after the record date.

         (f) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder
of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the
registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in
respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee, any
Security Registrar, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent or the Company in
reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such
Security.

         SECTION 105. Notices, etc., to Trustee and Company.

         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 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: Institutional Trust
Services, or

         (2) the Company 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, to the Company addressed to it
at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this
Indenture, Attention: Treasurer, or at any other address previously furnished in
writing to the Trustee by the Company.

         SECTION 106. Notice to Holders; Waiver.

         Where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to Holders of
Registered Securities by the Company or the Trustee, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing
and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each such Holder affected by such
event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the
latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving
of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders of Registered Securities 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 of Registered Securities or the sufficiency
of any notice to Holders of Bearer Securities given as provided herein. Any
notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively
deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually
receives such notice.

         If by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail
service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such
notice by mail, then such notification to



                                       12

Holders of Registered Securities as shall be made with the approval of the
Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification to such Holders for every
purpose hereunder.

         Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or otherwise specified
with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 301, where this Indenture
provides for notice to Holders of Bearer Securities of any event, such notice
shall be sufficiently given if published in an Authorized Newspaper in The City
of New York and in such other city or cities as may be specified in such
Securities, and if the Securities of such series are listed on any stock
exchange outside the United States, in any place at which such Securities are
listed on a securities exchange to the extent that such securities exchange so
requires, on a Business Day, such publication to be not later than the latest
date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such
notice. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such
publication or, if published more than once, on the date of the first such
publication.

         If by reason of the suspension of publication of any Authorized
Newspaper or Authorized Newspapers or by reason of any other cause it shall be
impracticable to publish any notice to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided
above, then such notification to Holders of Bearer Securities as shall be given
with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute sufficient notice to such
Holders for every purpose hereunder. Neither the failure to give notice by
publication to any particular Holder of Bearer Securities as provided above, nor
any defect in any notice so published, shall affect the sufficiency of such
notice with respect to other Holders of Bearer Securities or the sufficiency of
any notice to Holders of Registered Securities given as provided herein.

         Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or
waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English
language, except that any published notice may be in an official language of the
country of publication.

         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.

         SECTION 107. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

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

         SECTION 108. Successors and Assigns.

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


                                       13

         SECTION 109. Separability Clause.

         In case any provision in this Indenture or in any Security or coupon
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 110. Benefits of Indenture.

         Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities or coupons appertaining
thereto, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties
hereto, any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent and
their successors hereunder and the Holders any benefit or any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

         SECTION 111. No Personal Liability.

         No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement
contained in this Indenture, in any Security or coupon appertaining thereto, or
because of any indebtedness evidenced thereby, shall be had against any
promoter, as such, or against any past, present or future shareholder, officer
or director, as such, of the Company or of any successor, either directly or
through the Company or any successor, under any rule of law, statute or
constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal
or equitable proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived
and released by the acceptance of the Securities by the Holders thereof and as
part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

         SECTION 112. Governing Law.

         This Indenture and the Securities and coupons shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. This Indenture
is subject to the provisions of the TIA that are required to be part of this
Indenture and shall, to the extent applicable, be governed by such provisions.

         SECTION 113. Legal Holidays.

         In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment
Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated Maturity or Maturity of any Security or
the last date on which a Holder has the right to convert or exchange a Security
at a particular conversion or exchange price shall not be a Business Day at any
Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or
any Security or coupon other than a provision in the Securities of any series
which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu hereof),
payment of interest or any Additional Amounts or principal (and premium, if any)
need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, and conversion or
exchange need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made
on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force
and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment
Date or sinking fund payment date, or at the Stated Maturity or Maturity or on
such last day for conversion or exchange, provided that no interest shall accrue
on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment
Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated
Maturity or Maturity, as the case may be, to the next such Business Day.

                                SECURITIES FORMS

      SECTION 201. Forms of Securities.

      The Registered Securities, if any, of each series and the Bearer
Securities, if any, and related coupons of each series, shall be in
substantially the forms as shall be established in or pursuant to one or more
indentures supplemental hereto or Board Resolutions, shall have such appropriate
insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or
permitted by this Indenture or any indenture supplemental hereto, and may have
such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such
legends or endorsements placed thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and
as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, or as may be
required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant
thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which the
Securities may be listed, or to conform to usage.

      Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, Bearer
Securities shall have interest coupons attached.

      The definitive Securities and coupons shall be printed, lithographed or
engraved or produced by any combination of these methods on a steel engraved
border or steel engraved borders or may be produced in any other manner, all as
determined by the officers of the Company executing such Securities or coupons,
as evidenced by their execution of such Securities or coupons.

      SECTION 202. Form of Trustee's Certificate of Authentication.

      Subject to Section 611, the Trustee's certificate of authentication shall
be in substantially the following form:

      This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein and
referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

                                    JPMorgan Chase Bank, as Trustee

                                    By:
                                       -----------------------------------
                                                Authorized Officer

      SECTION 203. Securities Issuable in Global Form.

      If Securities of or within a series are issuable in global form, as
specified as contemplated by Section 301, then, notwithstanding clause (8) of
Section 301 and the provisions of Section 302, any such Security shall represent
such of the Outstanding Securities of such series as shall be specified therein
and may provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding
Securities of such series from time to time endorsed thereon and that the
aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities of such series represented thereby
may from time to time be increased or decreased to reflect exchanges, maturities
or redemptions. Any endorsement of a Security in global form to reflect the
amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of Outstanding

                                       15

Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee in such manner and
upon written instruction given by such Person or Persons as shall be specified
therein or in the Company Order to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to
Section 303 or 304. Subject to the provisions of Section 303 and, if applicable,
Section 304, the Trustee shall deliver and redeliver any Security in permanent
global form in the manner and upon written instructions given by the Person or
Persons specified therein or in the applicable Company Order. If a Company Order
pursuant to Section 303 or 304 has been, or simultaneously is, delivered, any
instructions by the Company with respect to endorsement or delivery or
redelivery of a Security in global form shall be in writing but need not comply
with Section 102.

      The provisions of the last sentence of Section 303 shall apply to any
Security represented by a Security in global form if such Security was never
issued and sold by the Company and the Company delivers to the Trustee the
Security in global form together with written instructions (which need not
comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel)
with regard to the reduction in the principal amount of Securities represented
thereby, together with the written statement contemplated by the last sentence
of Section 303.

      Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 307, unless otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 301, payment of principal of and any premium and
interest on any Security in permanent global form shall be made to the Person or
Persons specified therein.

      Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 308 and except as provided in
the preceding paragraph, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company
and the Trustee shall treat as the Holder of such principal amount of
Outstanding Securities represented by a permanent global Security (i) in the
case of a permanent global Security in registered form, the Holder of such
permanent global Security in registered form, or (ii) in the case of a permanent
global Security in bearer form, Euroclear or Clearstream.

      SECTION 204. CUSIP, CINS or ISIN Numbers.

      The Company in issuing any series of Securities may use "CUSIP", "CINS" or
"ISIN" numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use
"CUSIP", "CINS" or "ISIN" numbers in notices 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 such Securities or as contained
in any notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers printed on such Securities, and any such action relating to such notice
shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers in such
notice. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the
"CUSIP", "CINS" or "ISIN" numbers.

                                  ARTICLE THREE

Section 901).

      All Securities of any one series and the coupons appertaining to any
Bearer Securities of such series, if any, shall be substantially identical
except, in the case of Registered Securities, as to denomination and except as
may otherwise be provided in or pursuant to such Board Resolution or in any
indenture supplemental hereto. All Securities of any one series need not be
issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be
reopened, without the consent of the Holders, for issuances of additional
Securities of such series.

      If any of the terms of the Securities of any series are established by
action taken pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions, a copy of an appropriate
record of such action(s) shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant
Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the
delivery of the Company Order for authentication and delivery of such
Securities.

      SECTION 302. Denominations.

      The Securities of each series shall be issuable in such denominations as
shall be specified as contemplated by Section 301. With respect to Securities of
any series denominated in Dollars, in the absence of any such provisions with
respect to the Securities of any series, the Registered Securities of such
series, other than Registered Securities issued in global form (which may be of
any denomination), shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral
multiple thereof and the Bearer Securities of such series other than Bearer
Securities issued in global form (which may be of any denomination), shall be
issuable in denominations of $5,000.

                                       20

      SECTION 303. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

      The Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto shall be executed on
behalf of the Company by its President or a Vice President, under its corporate
seal reproduced thereon, and attested by its Secretary or an Assistant
Secretary. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities and coupons
may be manual or facsimile signatures of the present or any future such
authorized officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the
Securities.

      Securities or coupons appertaining thereto 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
or coupons.

      At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this
Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series, together with any
coupon appertaining thereto, executed by the Company to the Trustee for
authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and
delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company
Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities; provided, however, that,
in connection with its original issuance, no Bearer Security shall be mailed or
otherwise delivered to any location in the United States; and provided further
that, unless otherwise specified with respect to any series of Securities
pursuant to Section 301 a Bearer Security in definitive or permanent global form
may be delivered in connection with its original issuance only if the Person
entitled to receive such Bearer Security shall have furnished a certificate to
Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, in the form set forth in Exhibit
A-1 to this Indenture or such other certificate as may be specified with respect
to any series of Securities pursuant to Section 301, dated no earlier than 15
days prior to the earlier of the date on which such Bearer Security is delivered
and the date on which any temporary Security first becomes exchangeable for such
Bearer Security in accordance with the terms of such temporary Security and this
Indenture. Except as permitted by Section 306, the Trustee shall not
authenticate and deliver any Bearer Security unless all appurtenant coupons for
interest then matured have been detached and canceled.

      If all of the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time
and if the Board Resolution or supplemental indenture establishing such series
shall so permit, such Company Order may set forth procedures acceptable to the
Trustee for the issuance of such Securities and determining the terms of
particular Securities of such series, such as interest rate or formula, maturity
date, date of issuance and date from which interest shall accrue. In
authenticating Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under
this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to
receive, and (subject to Section 612 and TIA Section 315(a) through 315(d))
shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon:

      (i)   an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section 102 and stating that:

            (a)   the form or forms of such Securities and any coupons have
                  been, or will have been upon compliance with such procedures
                  as may be specified therein, established in conformity with
                  the provisions of this Indenture;

                                       21

            (b)   the terms of such Securities and any coupons have been, or
                  will have been upon compliance with such procedures as may be
                  specified therein, established in conformity with the
                  provisions of this Indenture;

            (c)   such Securities, together with any coupons appertaining
                  thereto, when completed pursuant to such procedures as may be
                  specified therein, and executed and delivered by the Company
                  to the Trustee for authentication in accordance with this
                  Indenture, authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in
                  accordance with this Indenture and issued by the Company in
                  the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such
                  Opinion of Counsel, will constitute legal, valid and binding
                  obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with
                  their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
                  reorganization and other similar laws of general applicability
                  relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights
                  generally and to general equitable principles and to such
                  other matters as may be specified therein; and

            (d)   the issuance of such Securities and any coupons will not
                  contravene the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the
                  Company or result in any violation of any of the terms or
                  provisions of any law or regulation or of any indenture,
                  mortgage or other agreement known to such counsel by which the
                  Company is bound.

      (ii)  an Officers' Certificate complying with Section 102 and stating that
            all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to
            the issuance of such Securities have been, or will have been upon
            compliance with such procedures as may be specified therein,
            complied with and that, to the best of the knowledge of the signers
            of such certificate, no Event of Default with respect to such
            Securities shall have occurred and be continuing.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 301 and of the preceding paragraph, if
all the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it shall not
be necessary to deliver a Company Order, an Opinion of Counsel or an Officers'
Certificate otherwise required pursuant to the preceding paragraph at the time
of issuance of each Security of such series, but such order, opinion and
certificate, with appropriate modifications to cover such future issuances,
shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the first Security of
such series and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on such order, certificate
and opinion in connection with the authentication and delivery of Securities of
such series subsequent to the first Security of such series.

      The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the
issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's
own rights, duties, obligations or immunities under the Securities and this
Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the
Trustee.

      Each Registered Security shall be dated the date of its authentication and
each Bearer Security shall be dated as of the date specified as contemplated by
Section 301.

                                       22

      No Security or coupon appertaining thereto shall be entitled to any
benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless
there appears on such Security or the Security to which such coupon appertains a
certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein duly
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 has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder
and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if any Security 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 309 together
with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 102 and need not be
accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been
issued or sold by the Company, 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.

      SECTION 304. Temporary Securities.

      (a) Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, 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, in registered form, or, if authorized, in bearer form with one or
more coupons or without coupons, and with such appropriate insertions,
omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers of the Company
executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their
execution of such Securities. In the case of Securities of any series, such
temporary Securities may be in global form.

      Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form (which shall be
exchanged in accordance with Section 304(b) or as otherwise provided in or
pursuant to a Board Resolution), if temporary Securities of any series are
issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be
prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive
Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be
exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the
temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a
Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender
for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series
(accompanied by any non-matured coupons appertaining thereto), the Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a
like principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized
denominations; provided, however, that no definitive Bearer Security shall be
delivered in exchange for a temporary Registered Security; and provided further
that a definitive Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary
Bearer Security only in compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 303.
Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects
be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities
of such series.

      (b) Unless otherwise provided as contemplated in Section 301, this Section
304(b) shall govern the exchange of temporary Securities issued in global form
other than through the facilities of DTC. If any such temporary Security is
issued in global form, then such temporary global Security shall, unless
otherwise provided therein, be delivered to the London, England

                                       23

office of a depository or common depository (the "Common Depository"), for the
benefit of Euroclear and Clearstream.

      Without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the date
specified in, or determined pursuant to the terms of, any such temporary global
Security (the "Exchange Date"), the Company shall deliver to the Trustee
definitive Securities, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal
amount of such temporary global Security, executed by the Company. On or after
the Exchange Date, such temporary global Security shall be surrendered by the
Common Depository to the Trustee, as the Company's agent for such purpose, to be
exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Securities
without charge, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for
each portion of such temporary global Security, an equal aggregate principal
amount of definitive Securities of or within the same series of authorized
denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such temporary global Security
to be exchanged. The definitive Securities to be delivered in exchange for any
such temporary global Security shall be in bearer form, registered form,
permanent global bearer form or permanent global registered form, or any
combination thereof, as specified as contemplated by Section 301, and, if any
combination thereof is so specified, as requested by the beneficial owner
thereof; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified in such temporary
global Security, upon such presentation by the Common Depository, such temporary
global Security is accompanied by a certificate dated the Exchange Date or a
subsequent date and signed by Euroclear as to the portion of such temporary
global Security, if any, held for its account then to be exchanged and a
certificate dated the Exchange Date or a subsequent date and signed by
Clearstream as to the portion of such temporary global Security, if any, held
for its account then to be exchanged, each in the form set forth in Exhibit A-2
to this Indenture or in such other form as may be established pursuant to
Section 301; and provided further that definitive Bearer Securities shall be
delivered in exchange for a portion of a temporary global Security only in
compliance with the requirements of Section 303.

      Unless otherwise specified in such temporary global Security, the interest
of a beneficial owner of Securities of a series in a temporary global Security
shall be exchanged for definitive Securities of the same series and of like
tenor following the Exchange Date when the account holder instructs Euroclear or
Clearstream, as the case may be, to request such exchange on his behalf and
delivers to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, a certificate in the
form set forth in Exhibit A-1 to this Indenture (or in such other form as may be
established pursuant to Section 301), dated no earlier than 15 days prior to the
Exchange Date, copies of which certificate shall be available from the offices
of Euroclear or Clearstream, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent appointed for
such series of Securities and each Paying Agent. Unless otherwise specified in
such temporary global Security, any such exchange shall be made free of charge
to the beneficial owners of such temporary global Security, except that a Person
receiving definitive Securities must bear the cost of insurance, postage,
transportation and the like unless such Person takes delivery of such definitive
Securities in person at the offices of Euroclear or Clearstream. Definitive
Securities in bearer form to be delivered in exchange for any portion of a
temporary global Security shall be delivered only outside the United States.

      Until exchanged in full as hereinabove provided, the temporary Securities
of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this
Indenture as definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor
authenticated and delivered hereunder, except that, unless

                                       24

otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, interest payable on a
temporary global Security on an Interest Payment Date for Securities of such
series occurring prior to the applicable Exchange Date shall be payable to
Euroclear or Clearstream on such Interest Payment Date upon delivery by
Euroclear or Clearstream to the Trustee of a certificate or certificates in the
form set forth in Exhibit A-2 to this Indenture (or in such other forms as may
be established pursuant to Section 301), for credit without further interest on
or after such Interest Payment Date to the respective accounts of Persons who
are the beneficial owners of such temporary global Security on such Interest
Payment Date and who have each delivered to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the
case may be, a certificate dated no earlier than 15 days prior to the Interest
Payment Date occurring prior to such Exchange Date in the form set forth as
Exhibit A-1 to this Indenture (or in such other forms as may be established
pursuant to Section 301). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
contained, the certifications made pursuant to this paragraph shall satisfy the
certification requirements of the preceding two paragraphs of this Section
304(b) and of the third paragraph of Section 303 of this Indenture and the
interests of the Persons who are the beneficial owners of the temporary global
Security with respect to which such certification was made will be exchanged for
definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor on the Exchange Date
or the date of certification if such date occurs after the Exchange Date,
without further act or deed by such beneficial owners. Except as otherwise
provided in this paragraph, no payments of principal or interest owing with
respect to a beneficial interest in a temporary global Security will be made
unless and until such interest in such temporary global Security shall have been
exchanged for an interest in a definitive Security. Any interest so received by
Euroclear or Clearstream and not paid as herein provided shall be returned to
the Trustee prior to the expiration of two years after such Interest Payment
Date in order to be repaid to the Company.

      SECTION 305. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

      The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee or in any office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment a
register for each series of Securities (the register maintained in such office
or in any such office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being
herein sometimes referred to as the "Security Register") in which, subject to
such reasonable regulations as it or the Security Registrar may prescribe, the
Company shall provide for the registration of Registered Securities and of
transfers of Registered Securities. There shall be only one Security Register
for each series of Securities. The Security Register shall be in written form or
any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable
time. The Trustee, at its Corporate Trust Office, is hereby initially appointed
"Security Registrar" for the purpose of registering Registered Securities and
transfers of Registered Securities on such Security Register as herein provided.
In the event that the Trustee shall cease to be Security Registrar, it shall
have the right to examine the Security Register at all reasonable times and to
require that a copy of the Security Register in written form be delivered to it
from time to time as reasonably requested. Subject to the provisions of this
Section 305, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Registered
Security of any series at any office or agency of the Company in a Place of
Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, one or more new Registered Securities of the same series, of any
authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, bearing a
number not contemporaneously outstanding, and containing identical terms and
provisions.

                                       25

      Subject to the provisions of this Section 305, at the option of the
Holder, Registered Securities of any series may be exchanged for other
Registered Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination or
denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, containing identical
terms and provisions, upon surrender of the Registered Securities to be
exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any such Registered Securities
are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, the Registered Securities which the Holder
making the exchange is entitled to receive. Unless otherwise specified with
respect to any series of Securities as contemplated by Section 301, Bearer
Securities may not be issued in exchange for Registered Securities.

      If (but only if) permitted as contemplated by Section 301, at the option
of the Holder, Bearer Securities of any series may be exchanged for Registered
Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations and of a like
aggregate principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the Bearer Securities to
be exchanged at any such office or agency, with all unmatured coupons and all
matured coupons in default thereto appertaining. If the Holder of a Bearer
Security is unable to produce any such unmatured coupon or coupons or matured
coupon or coupons in default, any such permitted exchange may be effected if the
Bearer Securities are accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company
in an amount equal to the face amount of such missing coupon or coupons, or the
surrender of such missing coupon or coupons may be waived by the Company and the
Trustee if there is furnished to them such security or indemnity as they may
require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the
Holder of such Security shall surrender to any Paying Agent any such missing
coupon in respect of which such a payment shall have been made, such Holder
shall be entitled to receive the amount of such payment; provided, however,
that, except as otherwise provided in Section 1002, interest represented by
coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of those coupons
at an office or agency located outside the United States. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered at any such
office or agency in a permitted exchange for a Registered Security of the same
series and like tenor after the close of business at such office or agency on
(i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or
agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date
and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related
proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest, such Bearer Security shall be
surrendered without the coupon relating to such Interest Payment Date or
proposed date for payment, as the case may be, and interest or Defaulted
Interest, as the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date
or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of the Registered
Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security, but will be payable only
to the Holder of such coupon when due in accordance with the provisions of this
Indenture. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company
shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities
which the holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 301, any permanent global Security shall be exchangeable
only as provided in this paragraph. If the depository for any permanent global
Security is DTC, then, unless the terms of such global Security expressly permit
such global Security to be exchanged in whole or in part for definitive
Securities, a global Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only
to a nominee of DTC, or by a nominee of DTC to DTC, or to a successor to DTC for
such global Security

                                       26

selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor to DTC. If
at any time DTC notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue
as depository for the applicable global Security or Securities or if at any time
DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act if so
required by applicable law or regulation, the Company shall appoint a successor
depository with respect to such global Security or Securities. If (x) a
successor depository for such global Security or Securities is not appointed by
the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes
aware of such unwillingness, inability or ineligibility, (y) an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing and the beneficial owners representing a majority
in principal amount of the applicable series of Securities represented by such
global Security or Securities advise DTC to cease acting as depository for such
global Security or Securities or (z) to the extent permitted by DTC, the
Company, in its sole discretion, determines at any time that all Outstanding
Securities (but not less than all) of any series issued or issuable in the form
of one or more global Securities shall no longer be represented by such global
Security or Securities (provided, however, the Company may not make such
determination during the 40-day restricted period provided by Regulation S under
the Securities Act or during any other similar period during which the
Securities must be held in global form as may be required by the Securities
Act), then the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, definitive Securities of like series, rank, tenor and terms in
definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount
of such global Security or Securities and registered in such names and in such
denominations as shall have been set forth in instructions received by the
Trustee from DTC. If any beneficial owner of an interest in a permanent global
Security is otherwise entitled to exchange such an interest for Securities of
such series and of like tenor and principal amount of another authorized form
and denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 301 and provided that
any applicable notice provided in the permanent global Security shall have been
given, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the
earliest date on which such interest may be so exchanged, the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver definitive Securities in
aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such beneficial
owner's interest in such permanent global Security and registered in such names
and in such denominations as shall have been set forth in instructions received
by the Trustee from DTC. On or after the earliest date on which such interests
may be so exchanged, such permanent global Security shall be surrendered for
exchange by DTC or such other depository as shall be specified in the Company
Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company's agent for such
purpose; provided, however, that no such exchanges may occur during a period
beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities
to be redeemed and ending on the relevant Redemption Date if the Security for
which exchange is requested may be among those selected for redemption; and
provided further that no Bearer Security delivered in exchange for a portion of
a permanent global Security shall be mailed or otherwise delivered to any
location in the United States. If a Registered Security is issued in exchange
for any portion of a permanent global Security after the close of business at
the office or agency where such exchange occurs on (i) any Regular Record Date
and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant
Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of
business at such office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of
Defaulted Interest, interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, will not
be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the
case may be, in respect of such Registered Security, but will be payable on such
Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only to
the Person

                                       27

to whom interest in respect of such portion of such permanent global Security is
payable in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

      All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of
Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same
debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities
surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

      Every Registered Security presented or surrendered for registration of
transfer or for exchange or redemption shall (if so required by the Company or
the Security Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to 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 304, 906, 1107, 1305 or 1610 not involving any
transfer.

      The Company or the Trustee, as applicable, shall not be required (i) to
issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security if such Security may be
among those selected for redemption during a period beginning at the opening of
business 15 days before selection of the Securities to be redeemed under Section
1103 and ending at the close of business on (A) if such Securities are issuable
only as Registered Securities, the day of the mailing of the relevant notice of
redemption and (B) if such Securities are issuable as Bearer Securities, the day
of the first publication of the relevant notice of redemption or, if such
Securities are also issuable as Registered Securities and there is no
publication, the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, or (ii) to
register the transfer of or exchange any Registered Security so selected for
redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any Registered Security
to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed, or (iii) to
exchange any Bearer Security so selected for redemption except that such a
Bearer Security may be exchanged for a Registered Security of that series and
like tenor, provided that such Registered Security shall be simultaneously
surrendered for redemption, or (iv) to issue or to register the transfer or
exchange of any Security which has been surrendered for repayment at the option
of the Holder, except the portion, if any, of such Security not to be so repaid.

      SECTION 306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

      If any mutilated Security or a Security with a mutilated coupon
appertaining to it is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company, together with
such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company or the Trustee to
save each of them or any agent of either of them harmless, the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange therefor a
new Security of the same series and principal amount, containing identical terms
and provisions and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, with
coupons corresponding to the coupons, if any, appertaining to the surrendered
Security.

                                       28

      If there shall be delivered to the Company and to the Trustee (i) evidence
to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security or
coupon, 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
actual notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security or coupon has
been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its
request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such
destroyed, lost or stolen Security or in exchange for the Security to which a
destroyed, lost or stolen coupon appertains (with all appurtenant coupons not
destroyed, lost or stolen), a new Security of the same series and principal
amount, containing identical terms and provisions and bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding, with coupons corresponding to the coupons, if
any, appertaining to such destroyed, lost or stolen Security or to the Security
to which such destroyed, lost or stolen coupon appertains.

      Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous two paragraphs, in case any
such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security or coupon has become or is
about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of
issuing a new Security, with coupons corresponding to coupons, if any,
appertaining to such destroyed, lost or stolen Security or to the Security to
which such destroyed, lost or stolen coupon appertains, pay such Security or
coupon; provided, however, that payment of principal of (and premium, if any),
any interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to Bearer Securities
shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 1002, be payable only at an
office or agency located outside the United States and, unless otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 301, any interest on Bearer Securities
shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the coupons
appertaining thereto.

      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 of any series with its coupons, if any, issued pursuant
to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security, or in
exchange for a Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen coupon appertains,
shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company,
whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security and its coupons, if any,
or the destroyed, lost or stolen coupon 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 of that series and their
coupons, if any, 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 or coupons.

      SECTION 307. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

      Except as otherwise specified with respect to a series of Securities in
accordance with the provisions of Section 301, interest on any Registered
Security that 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

                                       29

on the Regular Record Date for such interest at the office or agency of the
Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002; provided, however,
that each installment of interest on any Registered Security may at the
Company's option be paid by (i) mailing a check for such interest, payable to or
upon the written order of the Person entitled thereto pursuant to Section 308,
to the address of such Person as it appears on the Security Register or (ii)
transfer to an account maintained by the payee located inside the United States;
provided, that the Paying Agent shall have received appropriate wire transfer
instructions at least five Business Days prior to the applicable Interest
Payment Date.

      Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to
the Securities of any series, payment of interest may be made, in the case of a
Bearer Security, by transfer to an account maintained by the payee with a bank
located outside the United States; provided, that the Paying Agent shall have
received appropriate wire transfer instructions at least five Business Days
prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.

      Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301, every permanent
global Security will provide that interest, if any, payable on any Interest
Payment Date will be paid to DTC, Euroclear and/or Clearstream, as the case may
be, with respect to that portion of such permanent global Security held for its
account by DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, for the purpose of
permitting such party to credit the interest received by it in respect of such
permanent global Security to the accounts of the beneficial owners thereof.

      Except as otherwise specified with respect to a series of Securities in
accordance with the provisions of Section 301, any interest on any Registered
Security of any series that 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 registered Holder thereof 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 Registered Securities of such series (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 Registered
Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment (which shall not be
less than 20 days after such notice is received by the Trustee), and at the same
time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money in the
currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or
currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as
otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 for the Securities of such series)
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
on or 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

                                       30

of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted
Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage
prepaid, to each Holder of Registered Securities of such series at such Holder's
address as it appears in the Security Register 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 mailed as aforesaid,
such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the
Registered Securities of such series (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
Registered Securities of any series 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
written 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 and Section 305, 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.

      Subject to the provisions of Section 1402 and except as otherwise
specified with respect to a series of Securities in accordance with the
provisions of Section 301, in the case of any Security which is converted or
exchanged after any Regular Record Date and on or prior to the next succeeding
Interest Payment Date (other than any Security, the principal of (or premium, if
any, on) which shall become due and payable, whether at a Stated Maturity or by
declaration of acceleration, call for redemption, or otherwise, prior to such
Interest Payment Date), interest whose Stated Maturity is on such Interest
Payment Date shall be payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding such
conversion or exchange, and such interest (whether or not punctually paid or
duly provided for) 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
such Regular Record Date. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the
immediately preceding sentence, in the case of any Security which is converted
or exchanged, interest whose Stated Maturity is after the date of conversion or
exchange of such Security shall not be payable.

      SECTION 308. Persons Deemed Owners.

      Prior to due presentment of a Registered Security for registration of
transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee
may treat the Person in whose name such Registered Security is registered as the
owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and
premium, if any), and (subject to Sections 305 and 307) interest on, such
Registered Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such
Registered Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any
agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

                                       31

      Title to any Bearer Security and any coupons appertaining thereto shall
pass by delivery. The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the
Trustee may treat the Holder of any Bearer Security and the Holder of any coupon
as the absolute owner of such Security or coupon for the purpose of receiving
payment thereof or on account thereof and for all other purposes whatsoever,
whether or not such Security or coupon be overdue, and neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice
to the contrary.

      None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security
Registrar, nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee will have any
responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or
payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Security in
global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to
such beneficial ownership interests.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any global Security,
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 any depository, as a Holder, with respect to
such global Security or impair, as between such depository and owners of
beneficial interests in such global Security, the operation of customary
practices governing the exercise of the rights of such depository (or its
nominee) as Holder of such global Security.

      SECTION 309. Cancellation.

      All Securities and coupons surrendered for payment, redemption, repayment
at the option of the Holder, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit
against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than
the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee, and any such Securities and coupons
and Securities and coupons surrendered directly to the Trustee for any such
purpose shall be promptly canceled 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 canceled by the Trustee. If the Company shall so
acquire any of the Securities, however, such acquisition shall not operate as a
redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities
unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. No
Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities
canceled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this
Indenture. Canceled Securities and coupons held by the Trustee shall be disposed
of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary practices and, if required in
writing by the Company, the Trustee shall deliver a certificate of such
disposition to the Company, unless by a Company Order the Company directs their
return to it.

      SECTION 310. Computation of Interest.

      Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 with respect
to Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be
computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

                                       32

                                  ARTICLE FOUR
                           SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

      SECTION 401. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

      This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect
with respect to any series of Securities specified in such Company Request
(except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of
Securities of such series herein expressly provided for and any right to receive
Additional Amounts, as provided in Section 1011), and the Trustee, upon receipt
of a Company Order, and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to
such series when

            (1)   either

                  (A)   all Securities of such series theretofore authenticated
                        and delivered and all coupons, if any, appertaining
                        thereto (other than (i) coupons appertaining to Bearer
                        Securities surrendered for exchange for Registered
                        Securities and maturing after such exchange, whose
                        surrender is not required or has been waived as provided
                        in Section 305, (ii) Securities and coupons of such
                        series which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and
                        which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section
                        306, (iii) coupons appertaining to Securities called for
                        redemption and maturing after the relevant Redemption
                        Date, whose surrender has been waived as provided in
                        Section 1106, and (iv) Securities and coupons of such
                        series for whose payment money has theretofore been
                        deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by
                        the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or
                        discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 1003)
                        have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

                  (B)   all Securities of such series and, in the case of (i) or
                        (ii) below, any coupons appertaining thereto not
                        theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation

            (i)   have become due and payable, or

            (ii)  will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within
                  one year, or

            (iii) if redeemable at the option of the Company, are to be called
                  for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory
                  to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the
                  Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company,

and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has irrevocably
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for
the purpose an amount in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or
composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are
payable, sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such
Securities

                                       33

and such coupons not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for
principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and any Additional Amounts with
respect thereto, to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which
have become due and payable) or the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the
case may be;

            (2) The Company has paid or caused to be paid all or other sums
payable hereunder by the Company; and

            (3) The Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture as to such series have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the
obligations of the Company to the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under
Section 606, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under
Section 611 and, if money shall have been deposited with and held by the Trustee
pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the
Trustee under Section 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003, shall survive.

      In the event that there are Securities of two or more series Outstanding
hereunder, the Trustee shall be required to execute an instrument acknowledging
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture only if requested to do so with
respect to Securities of a particular series as to which it is Trustee and if
the other conditions thereto are met.

      SECTION 402. Application of Trust Funds.

      Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money
deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held in trust and
applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities, the coupons
and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if
any), and any interest and Additional Amounts for whose payment such money has
been deposited with or received by the Trustee, but such money need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

                                  ARTICLE FIVE
                                    REMEDIES

      SECTION 501. Events of Default.

      Subject to any modifications, additions or deletions relating to any
series of Securities as contemplated pursuant to Section 301, "Event of
Default," wherever used herein with respect to any particular series of
Securities, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such
Event of Default and whether or not it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be
effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any
court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental
body):

            (1) default in the payment of any interest upon or any Additional
Amounts payable in respect of any Security of or within that series or of any
coupon appertaining thereto,

                                       34

when such interest, Additional Amounts or coupon becomes due and payable, and
continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or

            (2) default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any,
on) any Security of that series when it becomes due and payable at its Maturity;
or

            (3) default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as
due by the terms of any Security of that series; or

            (4) default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or
warranty of the Company in this Indenture with respect to any Security of that
series (other than (i) a covenant or agreement included in this Indenture solely
for the benefit of a series of Securities other than such series or (ii) a
covenant or warranty a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere
in this Section specifically dealt with), and continuance of such default or
breach for a period of 60 days after there has been given, by registered or
certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee
by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
of that series a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring
it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default"
hereunder; or

            (5) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within
the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

            (A)   commences a voluntary case,

            (B)   consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an
                  involuntary case,

            (C)   consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or
                  substantially all of its property, or

            (D)   makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

                  Subsidiary in an involuntary case,

            (B)   appoints a Custodian of the Company or any Significant
                  Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of either of its
                  property, or

            (C)   orders the liquidation of the Company or any Significant
                  Subsidiary, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in
                  effect for 90 days; or

            (7) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities
of that series.

                                       35

      As used in this Section 501, the term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11,
U.S. Code or any similar Federal or state law for the relief of debtors and the
term "Custodian" means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or other
similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

      SECTION 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

      If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at the
time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the
Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series may declare the principal (or, if any
Securities are Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such
portion of the principal as may be specified in the terms thereof) of, all the
Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in
writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders), and upon
any such declaration such principal or specified portion thereof shall become
immediately due and payable.

      At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to
Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for
payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this
Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company 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 in the currency, currency unit or composite currency in which
the Securities of such series is payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant
to Section 301 for the Securities of such series):

            (A)   all overdue installments of interest on and any Additional
                  Amounts payable in respect of all Outstanding Securities of
                  that series and any related coupons;

            (B)   the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Outstanding
                  Securities of that series which have become due otherwise than
                  by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at
                  the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities;

            (C)   to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,
                  interest upon overdue installments of interest and any
                  Additional Amounts at the rate or rates borne by or provided
                  for in such Securities; and

            (D)   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 with respect to Securities of that series,
other than the nonpayment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
on Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of
acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513.

                                       36

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

      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 installment of interest or
Additional Amounts, if any, on any Security of any series and any related coupon
when such interest or Additional Amount 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) any Security of any series at its Maturity,

then the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Holders of such Securities of such series and coupons, the whole
amount then due and payable on such Securities and coupons for principal (and
premium, if any) and interest and Additional Amounts, with interest upon any
overdue principal (and premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such
interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue installments of interest
or Additional Amounts, if any, at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in
such 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 the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the
Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a
judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may
prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same
against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities of such series and
collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by
law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities
of such series, wherever situated.

      If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and
is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce
its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series and any
related coupons 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 the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the
Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their
creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities
of any series shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by
declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made
any demand on the Company for the

                                       37

payment of overdue principal, premium, if any, or interest) shall be entitled
and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

      (i)   to file and prove a claim for the whole amount, or such lesser
            amount as may be provided for in the Securities of such series, of
            principal (and premium, if any) and interest and Additional Amounts,
            if any, owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file
            such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in
            order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the
            reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
            Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such
            judicial proceeding, and

      (ii)  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 of Securities of such series and coupons to make such payments to
the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of
such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to
it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee and any predecessor Trustee, their agents and counsel, and any other
amounts due the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee under Section 606.

      Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to
authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Security
or coupon any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Securities or coupons or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to
authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of a
Security or coupon in any such proceeding.

      SECTION 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities
or Coupons.

      All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or any of the
Securities or coupons may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Securities or coupons 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 and
coupons in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

      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 premium,
if any) or interest and any Additional Amounts, upon presentation of the
Securities or coupons, or both, as the case may be, and the notation thereon of
the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

                                       38

      FIRST:      To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee and any
                  predecessor Trustee under Section 606,

      SECOND:     in accordance with the subordination provisions, if any, of
                  the Securities of such series;

      THIRD:      To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the
                  Securities and coupons for principal (and premium, if any) and
                  interest and any Additional Amounts payable, 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 aggregate amounts due and payable on
                  such Securities and coupons for principal (and premium, if
                  any), interest and Additional Amounts, respectively, and

      FOURTH:     To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company.

      SECTION 507. Limitation on Suits.

      No Holder of any Security of any series or any related coupon 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 with respect to the Securities of that series;

            (2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series 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 indemnity
satisfactory to the Trustee 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

            (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 of that series;

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 such
Holders.

                                       39

      SECTION 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium,
if any, Interest and Additional Amounts.

      Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any
Security or coupon shall have the right which is absolute and unconditional to
receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to
Sections 305 and 307) interest on, and any Additional Amounts in respect of,
such Security or payment of such coupon on the respective due dates expressed in
such Security or coupon (or, in the case of redemption or repayment, on the
Redemption Date or Repayment Date), to convert or exchange such Securities in
accordance with Article Sixteen and to institute suit for the enforcement of any
such payment, conversion or exchange 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 of a Security or coupon 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 the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of Securities and coupons shall,
subject to any determination in such proceeding, 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 has 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 or coupons in the last paragraph
of Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the
Trustee or to the Holders of Securities or coupons 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 any Security or
coupon 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 any 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
of Securities or coupons, as the case may be.

      SECTION 512. Control by Holders of Securities.

      The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of any series 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 of such series, provided that

                                       40

            (1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
with this Indenture,

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

            (3) the Trustee need not take any action which might involve it in
personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to the Holders of Securities of such
series not joining therein (but the Trustee shall have no obligation as to the
determination of such undue prejudice).

      SECTION 513. Waiver of Past Defaults.

      The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the
Securities of such series and any related coupons consent to the waiver of any
past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except
a default

            (1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or
interest on or Additional Amounts payable in respect of any Security of such
series or any related coupons, 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 of such series affected.

      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 Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

      SECTION 514. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.

      The Company 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 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 the Company (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.

      SECTION 515. Undertaking for Costs.

      All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by
his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its
discretion require, 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 or
omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its
discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
against any party litigant in such suit


                                       41

having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by
such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any
suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group
of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the
enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
on or Additional Amounts payable with respect to any Security on or after the
respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or in the case of
redemption or repayment, on or after the Redemption Date or Repayment Date) or
to enforce the right to convert or exchange any Security in accordance with
Article Sixteen.

                                   ARTICLE SIX
                                   THE TRUSTEE

      SECTION 601. Notice of Defaults.

      Within 90 days after the occurrence of any default hereunder with respect
to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit in the manner and to
the extent provided in TIA Section 313(c), notice of such default hereunder
actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, unless such default
shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of
a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on
or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Security of such series, or in the
payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to the Securities of such
series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long
as Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the
withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Securities
and coupons of such series; and provided further that in the case of any default
or breach of the character specified in Section 501(4) with respect to the
Securities and coupons of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given
until at least 60 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this
Section, the term "default" means any event which is, or after notice or lapse
of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to the Securities
of such series. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the identity
of any Significant Subsidiary unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall
have actual knowledge of such identity or unless the Company or any Holder shall
have given the Trustee notice thereof in accordance with Section 105.

      SECTION 602. Certain Rights of Trustee.

      Subject to the provisions of TIA Section 315(a) through 315(d):

(1)   the Trustee shall perform only such duties as are expressly undertaken by
      it to perform under this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations
      shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee;

(2)   the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting
      or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement,
      instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order,
      bond, debenture, note, coupon or other paper or document believed by it to
      be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or
      parties;


                                       42

(3)   any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be
      sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order (other than
      delivery of any Security, together with any coupons appertaining thereto,
      to the Trustee for authentication and delivery pursuant to Section 303
      which shall be sufficiently evidenced as provided therein) and any
      resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a
      Board Resolution;

(4)   whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee 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;

(5)   the Trustee may consult with counsel and as a condition to the taking,
      suffering or omission of any action hereunder may demand an Opinion of
      Counsel, and the 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;

(6)   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 of Securities of any series pursuant to this Indenture,
      unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or
      indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities
      which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or
      direction;

(7)   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, coupon 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;

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

(9)   the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted
      by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or
      within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this
      Indenture. The Trustee shall not be required 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, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment
      of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against such risk
      or liability is not reasonably assured to it; and

(10)  in case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee
      shall exercise such of its rights and powers under this Indenture and use
      the same degree of care and skill in


                                       43

      their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
      circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

      SECTION 603. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.

      The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee's
certificate of authentication, and in any coupons shall be taken as the
statements of the Company, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent
assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the
Securities or coupons, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly
authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Securities
and perform its obligations hereunder. Neither the Trustee nor any
Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the
Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

      SECTION 604. May Hold Securities.

      The Trustee, any Paying Agent, Security Registrar, Authenticating Agent or
any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may
become the owner or pledgee of Securities and coupons and, subject to Section
613 and TIA Sections 310(b) and 311, may otherwise deal with the Company with
the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Security
Registrar, Authenticating Agent or such other agent.

      SECTION 605. 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, or investment of, any money received by it hereunder.

      SECTION 606. Compensation and Reimbursement.

      The Company agrees:

            (1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation
for all services rendered by it hereunder, including extraordinary services
rendered in connection with or during the continuation of a default 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) to reimburse each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee
upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances
incurred or made by it in accordance with any provision of this Indenture
(including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its
agents and counsel), except to the extent any such expense, disbursement or
advance may be attributable to its gross negligence or bad faith; and

            (3) to indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee and
each of their respective directors, officers, agents and employees for, and to
hold each of them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense, arising out
of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts
or the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of
defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise
or


                                       44

performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder except to the extent any
such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its own gross negligence
or bad faith.

      As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under
this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon all
property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held
in trust for the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on
particular Securities or any coupons.

      Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under
applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in
connection with an Event of Default described in Section 501(5) and (6), such
expenses (including the fees and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation
for such services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under
any Bankruptcy Law.

      The provisions of this Section shall survive the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture or the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

      SECTION 607. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

      There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be eligible to
act as Trustee under TIA Section 310(a)(1) and shall have a combined capital and
surplus of at least $50,000,000 or is a subsidiary of a corporation which shall
be a Person that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and
which unconditionally guarantees the obligations of the Trustee hereunder. If
such Trustee or Person publishes reports of condition at least annually,
pursuant to law or the requirements of Federal, State, Territorial or District
of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this
Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Trustee or 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 608. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

      (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the
applicable requirements of Section 609.

      (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of
one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If an
instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to
the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the
resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee.

      (c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities
of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Trustee and to the
Company.


                                       45

      (d) If at any time:

            (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section
613 or TIA Section 310(b) after written request therefor by the Company or by
any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at
least six months, or

            (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 607 and
shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any
Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least
six months, or

            (3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be
adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property
shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the
Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation,
conservation or liquidation, then, in any such case, (i) the Company by or
pursuant to a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor
Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii) subject to TIA Section 315(e),
any Holder of a Security 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 with
respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or
Trustees.

      (e) 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 cause with respect
to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by or pursuant to a Board
Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect
to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such
successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more
or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with
respect to the Securities of any particular series). If, within one year after
such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be
appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring
Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance
of such appointment, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities
of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by
the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any
series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders of Securities
and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder of a
Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series 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 with respect to Securities of such series.

      (f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of
the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of
a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series in the manner
provided for notices to the Holders of Securities in Section 106. Each notice
shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities
of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.


                                       46

      SECTION 609. Acceptance of Appointment By Successor.

      (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with
respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee 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; but, on 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, subject nevertheless to its lien,
if any, provided for in Section 606.

      (b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the
retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of
one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto,
pursuant to Article Nine hereof, wherein each successor Trustee shall accept
such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be
necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each
successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring
Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the
appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is
not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as
shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers,
trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that
or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue
to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the
provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate
the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being
understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall
constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such
Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from
any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon
the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or
removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided
therein and each 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 with respect to the Securities of that or those series
to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of
the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign,
transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by
such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those
series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.

      (c) 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
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be.

      (d) 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.


                                       47

      (e) All monies due and owing to the Trustee shall be paid before the
successor Trustee accepts its appointment.

      SECTION 610. 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 of 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 or coupons 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 or coupons so
authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself
authenticated such Securities or coupons. In case any Securities or coupons
shall not have been authenticated by such predecessor Trustee, any such
successor Trustee may authenticate and deliver such Securities or coupons, in
either its own name or that of its predecessor Trustee, with the full force and
effect which this Indenture provides for the certificate of authentication of
the Trustee.

      SECTION 611. Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

      At any time when any of the Securities remain Outstanding, the Trustee may
appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of
Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to
authenticate Securities of such series issued upon exchange, registration of
transfer or partial redemption or repayment thereof or pursuant to Section 306,
and 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. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an
instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, a copy of
which instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company. 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
reasonably acceptable to the Company and, except as may otherwise be provided
pursuant to Section 301, shall at all times be a bank or trust company or
corporation organized and doing business and in good standing under the laws of
the United States of America or of any State or the District of Columbia,
authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined
capital and surplus of not less than $25,000,000 and subject to supervision or
examination by Federal or State authorities. If such Authenticating Agent
publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the
requirements of the aforesaid 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. In case 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.


                                       48

      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 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 further act
on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

      An Authenticating Agent for any series of Securities may at any time
resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee for such series
and to the Company. The Trustee for any series of Securities may at any time
terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of
termination 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 for such series may appoint a successor
Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give
notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities of or within the series
with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve in the manner set
forth in Section 106. 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 herein. 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 including reimbursement of its reasonable expenses for
its services under this Section.

      If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to
this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in
addition to or in lieu of the Trustee's certificate of authentication, an
alternate certificate of authentication substantially in the following form:

      This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein and
referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

      SECTION 612. Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

      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


                                       49

exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for
believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee
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 613. Conflicting Interests.

      If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the
meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such
interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to
the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. To the extent
permitted by such Act, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting
interest by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture with respect to
Securities of more than one series or under the indenture dated the date hereof
with RailAmerica Inc. and the Guarantors named therein.

      SECTION 701. Disclosure of Names and Addresses of Holders.

      Every Holder of Securities or coupons, by receiving and holding the same,
agrees with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee
nor any Authenticating Agent nor any Paying Agent nor any Security Registrar nor
any director, officer, agent or employee of any of them shall be held
accountable by reason of the disclosure of any information as to the names and
addresses of the Holders of Securities or coupons in accordance with TIA Section
312, regardless of the source from which such information was derived, and that
the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing any material

shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Securities as provided in TIA Section
313(c) a brief report dated as of such May 15 if and to the extent required by
TIA Section 313(a).

      To facilitate compliance by the Trustee with TIA Section 313, the Company
will notify the Trustee when any Securities are listed on any stock exchange.

      SECTION 703. Reports by Company.

      The Company will:

            (1) file with the Trustee, within 15 days after the Company is
required to file the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports and
of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of
any of the foregoing as the Commission may


                                       50

from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) which the Company may be
required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act; or, if the Company is not required to file information,
documents or reports pursuant to either of such Sections, then it will file with
the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations
prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such of the supplementary and
periodic information, documents and reports which may be required pursuant to
Section 13 of the Exchange Act in respect of a security listed and registered on
a national securities exchange as may be prescribed from time to time in such
rules and regulations;

            (2) file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with

for interest for each series of Securities, a list, in such form as the Trustee
may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Holders of Registered
Securities of such series as of such Regular Record Date, or if there is no
Regular Record Date for interest for such series of Securities, semi-annually,
upon such dates as are set forth in the Board Resolution or indenture
supplemental hereto authorizing such series, provided, however, that, so long as
the Trustee is the Security Registrar, no such lists shall be required to be
furnished, and

      (b) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30
days after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of similar

                                  ARTICLE EIGHT
                CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE, LEASE OR CONVEYANCE

      SECTION 801. Consolidations and Mergers of Company and Sales, Leases and
Conveyances Permitted Subject to Certain Conditions.

      The Company may consolidate with, or sell, lease or convey all or
substantially all of its assets to, or merge with or into any other Person,
provided that in any such case, (i) either the Company shall be the continuing
entity, or the successor (if other than the Company) entity shall


                                       51

be a Person organized and existing under the laws of the United States or a
State thereof or the District of Columbia and such successor entity shall
expressly assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium,
if any) and any interest (including all Additional Amounts, if any, payable
pursuant to Section 1011) on all of the Securities, according to their tenor,
the conversion or exchange rights provided for in accordance with Article
Sixteen, if applicable, or as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, and
the due and punctual performance and observance of all of the covenants and
conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Company by supplemental
indenture, complying with Article Nine hereof, in form satisfactory to the
Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee by such Person and (ii)
immediately after giving effect to such transaction and treating any
indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary as a
result thereof as having been incurred by the Company or such Subsidiary at the
time of such transaction, no Event of Default, and no event which, after notice
or the lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have
occurred and be continuing.

      SECTION 802. Rights and Duties of Successor Corporation.

      In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance and
upon any such assumption by the successor entity, such successor entity shall
succeed to and be substituted for the Company, with the same effect as if it had
been named herein as the party of the first part, and the predecessor entity,
except in the event of a lease, shall be relieved of any further obligation
under this Indenture and the Securities. Such successor entity thereupon may
cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the
Company, any or all of the Securities issuable hereunder which theretofore shall
not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the
order of such successor entity, instead of the Company, and subject to all the
terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee
shall authenticate and shall deliver any Securities which previously shall have
been signed and delivered by the officers of the Company to the Trustee for
authentication, and any Securities which such successor entity thereafter shall
cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All the
Securities so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit
under this Indenture as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Securities had
been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

      In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance, such
changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the
Securities thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

      SECTION 803. Officers' Certificate and Opinion of Counsel.

      Any consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance permitted under
Section 801 is also subject to the condition that the Trustee receive an
Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that any such
consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance, and the assumption by any
successor entity, complies with the provisions of this Article and that all
conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been
complied with.

                             SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

      SECTION 901. Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders.

      Without the consent of any Holders of Securities or coupons, the Company,
when authorized by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, and the Trustee, at any
time and from time to time, may enter into one or more indentures supplemental
hereto, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of the following purposes:

            (1) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Company and
the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company herein and
in the Securities contained; or

            (2) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the
Holders of all or any series of Securities (and, if such covenants are to be for
the benefit of less than all series of Securities, stating that such covenants
are expressly being included solely for the benefit of such series) or to
surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company; or

            (3) to add any additional Events of Default for the benefit of the
Holders of all or any series of Securities (and if such Events of Default are to
be for the benefit of less than all series of Securities, stating that such
Events of Default are expressly being included solely for the benefit of such
series); provided, however, that in respect of any such additional Events of
Default such supplemental indenture may provide for a particular period of grace
after default (which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the
case of other defaults) or may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such
default or may limit the remedies available to the Trustee upon such default or
may limit the right of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of that or those series of Securities to which such additional Events of Default
apply to waive such default; or

            (4) to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture to
provide that Bearer Securities may be registrable as to principal, to change or
eliminate any restrictions on the payment of principal of or any premium or
interest on Bearer Securities, to permit Bearer Securities to be issued in
exchange for Registered Securities, to permit Bearer Securities to be issued in
exchange for Bearer Securities of other authorized denominations or to permit or
facilitate the issuance of Securities in uncertificated form, provided that any
such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of
Securities of any series or any related coupons in any material respect; or

            (5) to add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of this
Indenture in respect of any series of Securities, provided that any such
addition, change or elimination shall (i) neither (A) apply to any Security of
any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture and
entitled to the benefit of such provision, nor (B) modify the rights of the
Holder of any such Security with respect to such provision; or (ii) become
effective only when there is no Security Outstanding; or

            (6) to secure the Securities; or


                                       53

            (7) to establish the form or terms of Securities of any series and
any related coupons as permitted by Sections 201 and 301, including (i) the
provisions and procedures relating to Securities convertible into or
exchangeable for other securities or property of the Company or (ii) the
addition or modification of any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be
necessary or desirable to provide for or facilitate the guarantee of such
Securities by one or more Guarantors; or

            (8) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment
hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more
series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall
be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts
hereunder by more than one Trustee; or

            (9) to make provision for the subordination of Securities of a
series or to make provision with respect to the conversion or exchange rights of
Holders pursuant to the requirements of Article Sixteen, including providing for
the conversion or exchange of the Securities into any security or property of
the Company or any other issuer; or

            (10) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision
herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision herein,
or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising
under this Indenture which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this
Indenture or to make any other changes, provided that in each case, such
provisions shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of Securities
of any series or any related coupons in any material respect; or

            (11) to close this Indenture with respect to the authentication and
delivery of additional series of Securities or to qualify, or maintain
qualification of, this Indenture under the TIA;

            (12) to amend Schedule I attached hereto to add and/or remove one or
more Guarantors; provided, that no such amendment shall remove any Guarantor
that has guaranteed any Securities Outstanding hereunder; or

            (13) to supplement any of the provisions of this Indenture to such
extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the defeasance and
discharge of any series of Securities pursuant to Sections 401, 1402 and 1403;
provided in each case that any such action shall not adversely affect the
interests of the Holders of Securities of such series and any related coupons or
any other series of Securities in any material respect.

      SECTION 902. Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Holders.

      With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal
amount of all Outstanding Securities of each series affected by such
supplemental indenture, by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company and the
Trustee, the Company, when authorized by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, and
the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for
the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating
any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights
of the Holders of Securities and any related coupons under this Indenture;
provided, however, that


                                       54

no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Security affected thereby:

(1)   change the Stated Maturity of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) or
      any installment of principal of or interest on, any Security; or reduce
      the principal amount thereof or the rate or amount of interest thereon or
      any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof, or any premium payable
      upon the redemption thereof, or change any obligation of the Company to
      pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 1011 (except as contemplated by
      Section 801(i) and permitted by Section 901(1)), or reduce the amount of
      the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and
      payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof

      pursuant to Section 504, or adversely affect any right of repayment at the
      option of the Holder of any Security, or change any Place of Payment
      where, or the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite
      currency or currencies in which, the principal of any Security or any
      premium or any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof or the
      interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the
      enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof
      (or, in the case of redemption or repayment at the option of the Holder,
      on or after the Redemption Date or the Repayment Date, as the case may
      be); or

(2)   reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
      any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such
      supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for
      any waiver with respect to such series (of compliance with certain
      provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their
      consequences) provided for in this Indenture, or reduce the requirements
      of Section 1504 for quorum or voting; or

(3)   modify any of the provisions of this Section, Section 513 or Section 1012,
      except to increase the required percentage to effect such action or to
      provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified
      or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security
      affected thereby; or

(4)   make any change that adversely affects the right to convert or exchange
      any Security as provided in Article Sixteen or pursuant to Section 301
      (except as permitted by Section 901(9)) or decrease the conversion or
      exchange rate or increase the conversion or exchange price of any such
      Security; or

(5)   modify the Guarantees in any manner adverse to the Holders or make any
      amendment referred to in the proviso to Section 901(12).

      It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section to
approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall
be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

      A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other
provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included for the benefit of
one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of the
Holders of Securities of such series with respect


                                       55

to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights
under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series.

      SECTION 903. Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

      In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modification thereby of
the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive,
and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and an
Officers' Certificate stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture
is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent
to the execution of such supplemental indenture have been complied with. The

indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under
this Indenture or otherwise.

      SECTION 904. Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

      Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article, this
Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental
indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder
of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder
and of any coupon appertaining thereto shall be bound thereby.

be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities of such series.

      SECTION 907. Notice of Supplemental Indentures.

      Promptly after the execution by the Company and the Trustee of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of Section 902, the Company

                                   ARTICLE TEN
                                    COVENANTS

      SECTION 1001. Payment of Principal, Premium, if any, Interest and
Additional Amounts.

      The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of each
series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and
premium, if any) and interest on and any Additional Amounts payable in respect
of the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of such series of
Securities, any coupons appertaining thereto and this Indenture. Unless
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any series of
Securities, any interest due on and any Additional Amounts payable in respect of
Bearer Securities on or before Maturity, other than Additional Amounts, if any,
payable as provided in Section 1011 in respect of principal of (or premium, if
any, on) such a Security, shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender
of the several coupons for such interest installments as are evidenced thereby
as they severally mature. Unless otherwise specified with respect to Securities
of any series pursuant to Section 301, at the option of the Company, all
payments of principal may be paid by check to the registered Holder of the
Registered Security or other person entitled thereto against surrender of such
Security.

      SECTION 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency.

      If Securities of a series are issuable only as Registered Securities, the
Company shall maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an
office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered
for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration
of transfer or exchange, where Securities of that series may be converted or
exchanged in accordance with Article Sixteen, and where notices and demands to
or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this
Indenture may be served. If Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer
Securities, the Company will maintain: (A) in the Borough of Manhattan, The City
of New York, an office or agency where any Registered Securities of that series
may be presented or surrendered for payment or conversion, where any Registered
Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange, where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the
Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served and where Bearer
Securities of that series and related coupons may be presented or surrendered
for payment or conversion in the circumstances described in the following
paragraph (and not otherwise); (B) subject to any laws or regulations applicable
thereto, in a Place of Payment for that series which is located outside the
United States, an office or agency where Securities of that series and related
coupons may be presented and surrendered for payment (including payment of any
Additional Amounts payable on Securities of that series pursuant to Section
1011) or conversion; provided, however, that if the Securities of that series
are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, The International Stock Exchange or
any other stock exchange located outside the United States and such stock
exchange shall so require, the Company will maintain a Paying Agent for the
Securities of that series in Luxembourg, London, England or any other required
city located outside the United States, as the case may be, so long as the
Securities of that series are listed on such exchange; and (C) subject to any
laws or regulations applicable thereto, in each Place of Payment for that series
located outside the United States an office or agency where any Securities of
that series


                                       57

may be surrendered for registration of transfer, where Securities of that series
may be surrendered for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the
Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be
served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the
location, and any change in the location, of each such office or agency. If at
any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency
or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, except that Bearer Securities of that
series and the related coupons may be presented and surrendered for payment
(including payment of any Additional Amounts payable on Bearer Securities of
that series pursuant to Section 1011) at the offices specified in the Security,
located outside the United States, and the Company hereby appoints the same as
its agent to receive such respective presentations, surrenders, notices and
demands, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee its agent to receive all
such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

      Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to
Section 301, no payment of principal, premium, or interest on or Additional
Amounts in respect of Bearer Securities shall be made at any office or agency of
the Company in the United States or by check mailed to any address in the United
States or by transfer to an account maintained with a bank located in the United
States; provided, however, that, if the Securities of a series are payable in
Dollars, payment of principal of and any premium and interest on any Bearer
Security (including any Additional Amounts payable on Securities of such series
pursuant to Section 1011) shall be made at the office of the Company's Paying
Agent in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, if (but only if)
payment in Dollars of the full amount of such principal, premium, interest, or
Additional Amounts, as the case may be, at all offices or agencies outside the
United States maintained for the purpose by the Company in accordance with this
Indenture, is illegal or effectively precluded by exchange controls or other
similar restrictions.

      The Company may from time to time designate one or more other offices or
agencies where the Securities of one or more series and related coupons, if any,
may be presented or surrendered for any or all of such purposes, and may from
time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such
designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its
obligation to maintain an office or agency in accordance with the requirements
set forth above for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company will
give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission
and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

      Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to
Section 301, if and so long as the Securities of any series (i) are denominated
in a Foreign Currency or (ii) may be payable in a Foreign Currency, or so long
as it is required under any other provision of the Indenture, then the Company
will maintain with respect to each such series of Securities, or as so required,
at least one exchange rate agent.

      SECTION 1003. Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust.

      If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect
to any series of any Securities and any related coupons, it will, on or before
each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any), or interest on or
Additional Amounts in respect of, any of the Securities of that


                                       58

series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
thereto a sum in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite
currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable
(except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 for the Securities of
such series) sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest
or Additional Amounts 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 any series
of Securities and any related coupons, it will, on or before each due date of
the principal of (and premium, if any), or interest on or Additional Amounts in
respect of, any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum (in
the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or
currencies described in the preceding paragraph) sufficient to pay the principal
(and premium, if any) or interest or Additional Amounts, so becoming due, such
sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such
principal, premium, or interest or Additional Amounts 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 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) hold all sums held by it for the payment of principal of (and
premium, if any) or interest on Securities or Additional Amounts in trust for
the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to
such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

            (2) give the Trustee written notice of any default by the Company
(or any other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any such payment of
principal (and premium, if any) or interest or Additional Amounts; and

            (3) at any time during the continuance of any such default upon the
written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in
trust by such Paying Agent.

      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
sums.

      Except as otherwise provided in the Securities of any series, any money
deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in
trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on,
or any Additional Amounts in respect of, any Security of any series and
remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any),
interest or Additional Amounts has become due and payable shall be paid to the


                                       59

Company upon 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 for payment of such
principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on, or any Additional Amounts in
respect of, any Security, without interest thereon, 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, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in an
Authorized Newspaper in the City of New York, notice that 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. (Omitted)

      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 the existence,
rights (charter and statutory) and franchises of the Company and its
Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to
preserve any 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 its Subsidiaries as a whole and that the loss thereof is not
disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders of Securities of any
series.

      SECTION 1006. Maintenance of Properties.

      The Company will cause all of its material 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 or any
Subsidiary from selling or otherwise disposing of its properties in the ordinary
course of its business.

      SECTION 1007. Insurance.

      The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, keep all its
insurable properties insured against loss or damage with commercially reasonable
amounts and types of insurance provided by insurers of recognized
responsibility.

      SECTION 1008. 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 it 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


                                       60

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 1009. Provision of Financial Information.

      Whether or not the Company is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, the Company will, to the extent permitted under the Exchange Act,
file with the Commission the annual reports, quarterly reports and other
documents which the Company would have been required to file with the Commission
pursuant to such Section 13 or 15(d) (the "Financial Statements") if the Company
were so subject, such documents to be filed with the Commission on or prior to
the respective dates (the "Required Filing Dates") by which the Company would
have been required so to file such documents if the Company were so subject.

      The Company will also in any event (x) within 15 days of each Required
Filing Date file with the Trustee copies of annual reports, quarterly reports
and other documents which the Company would have been required to file with the
Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the Company
were subject to such Sections, and (y) if filing such documents by the Company
with the Commission is not permitted under the Exchange Act, promptly upon
written request and payment of the reasonable cost of duplication and delivery,
supply copies of such documents to any prospective Holder.

      SECTION 1010. Statement as to Compliance.

      The Company and the Guarantors will deliver to the Trustee within 120 days
after the end of each fiscal year, a brief certificate from the principal
executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer
of each of the Company and each Guarantor as to his or her knowledge of the
Company's and each Guarantor's compliance with all conditions and covenants
under this Indenture and, in the event of any noncompliance, specifying such
noncompliance and the nature and status thereof. For purposes of this Section
1010, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace
or requirement of notice under this Indenture.

      SECTION 1011. Additional Amounts.

      If any Securities of a series provide for the payment of Additional
Amounts, the Company will pay to the Holder of any Security of such series or
any coupon appertaining thereto Additional Amounts as may be specified as
contemplated by Section 301. Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in
any context except in the case of Section 502(1), the payment of the principal
of or any premium or interest on, or in respect of, any Security of any series
or payment of any related coupon or the net proceeds received on the sale or
exchange of any Security of any series, such mention shall be deemed to include
mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided by the terms of such
series established pursuant to Section 301 to the extent that, in such context,
Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to
such terms and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if
applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding
Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not
made.


                                       61




      Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, if the
Securities of a series provide for the payment of Additional Amounts, at least
10 days prior to the first Interest Payment Date with respect to that series of
Securities (or if the Securities of that series will not bear interest prior to
Maturity, the first day on which a payment of principal and any premium is
made), and at least 10 days prior to each date of payment of principal and any
premium or interest if there has been any change with respect to the matters set
forth in the below-mentioned Officers' Certificate, the Company will furnish the
Trustee and the Company's principal Paying Agent or Paying Agents, if other than
the Trustee, with an Officers' Certificate instructing the Trustee and such
Paying Agent or Paying Agents whether such payment of principal of and any
premium or interest on the Securities of that series shall be made to Holders of
Securities of that series or any related coupons who are not United States
persons without withholding for or on account of any tax, assessment or other
governmental charge described in the Securities of or within the series. If any
such withholding shall be required, then such Officers' Certificate shall
specify by country the amount, if any, required to be withheld on such payments
to such Holders of Securities of that series or related coupons and the Company
will pay to the Trustee or such Paying Agent the Additional Amounts, if any,
required by the terms of such Securities. In the event that the Trustee or any
Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall not so receive the above mentioned
certificate, then the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall be entitled (i) to
assume that no such withholding or deduction is required with respect to any
payment of principal or interest with respect to any Securities of a series or
related coupons until it shall have received a certificate advising otherwise
and (ii) to make all payments of principal and interest with respect to the
Securities of a series or related coupons without withholding or deductions
until otherwise advised. The Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any
Paying Agent and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents for,
and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense (including but
not limited to legal fees and expenses) reasonably incurred without gross
negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in connection with
actions taken or omitted by any of them in reliance on any Officers' Certificate
furnished pursuant to this Section or in reliance on the Company's not
furnishing such an Officers' Certificate.

      SECTION 1012. Waiver of Certain Covenants.

      The Company and the Guarantors may omit in any particular instance to
comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in Sections 1005 to 1009,
inclusive, and with any other term, provision or condition with respect to the
Securities of any series specified in accordance with Section 301 (except any
such term, provision or condition which could not be amended without the consent
of all Holders of Securities of such series pursuant to Section 902), if before
or after the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in
principal amount of all Outstanding Securities of such series, by Act of such
Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive
compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to
or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived,
and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company,
the Guarantors and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term,
provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

                                       62

                                 ARTICLE ELEVEN
                            REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

      SECTION 1101. Applicability of Article.

      Securities of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity
shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series, including
the subordination provisions of any series of Securities) in accordance with
this Article.

      SECTION 1102. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

      The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by
or pursuant to a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of
the Company of the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 45 days
prior to the giving of the notice of redemption in Section 1104 (unless a
shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee, in
writing, of such Redemption Date, and of the principal amount of Securities of
such series to be redeemed and the Redemption Price of such Securities and any
accrued interest and Additional Amounts payable with respect thereto, if any, on
the Redemption Date. In the case of any redemption of Securities (a) prior to
the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of
such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture or (b) pursuant to an election of
the Company which is subject to a condition specified in the terms of such
Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee
with an Officers' Certificate and Opinion of Counsel evidencing compliance with
such restriction or condition.

      SECTION 1103. Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed.

      If less than all the Securities of any series with the same terms are to
be redeemed, 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 of such series with the same terms 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 portions (equal to the
minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series or any integral
multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of such series of a
denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of
that series.

      If any Security selected for partial redemption is converted or exchanged
in part before termination of the conversion or exchange right with respect to
the portion of the Security so selected, the converted or exchanged portion of
such Security shall be deemed (so far as may be) to be the portion selected for
redemption. Securities which have been converted or exchanged during a selection
of Securities to be redeemed shall be treated by the Trustee as Outstanding for
the purposes of such selection. In any case where more than one Security is
registered in the same name, the Trustee in its discretion may treat the
aggregate principal amount so registered as if it were represented by one
Security.

                                       63

      The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Security Registrar
(if other than itself) in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and,
in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal
amount thereof to be redeemed.

      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 Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of
the principal amount of such Security which has been or is to be redeemed.

      SECTION 1104. Notice of Redemption.

      Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 106,
not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, unless
a shorter period is specified by the terms of such series established pursuant
to Section 301, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, but failure to give
such notice in the manner herein provided to the Holder of any Security
designated for redemption as a whole or in part, or any defect in the notice to
any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the
redemption of any other such Security or portion thereof.

      Any notice that is mailed to the Holders of Registered Securities in the
manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given,
whether or not the Holder receives the notice.

      All notices of redemption shall state:

      (1)   the Redemption Date;

      (2)   the Redemption Price (or if not then ascertainable, the manner of
            calculation thereof), accrued interest to the Redemption Date
            payable as provided in Section 1106, if any, and Additional Amounts,
            if any;

      (3)   if less than all Outstanding Securities of any series are to be
            redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial
            redemption, the principal amount) of the particular Security or
            Securities to be redeemed;

      (4)   in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, that on and
            after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, the
            holder will receive, without a charge, a new Security or Securities
            of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof
            remaining unredeemed;

      (5)   that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price and accrued
            interest to the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 1106,
            if any, will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the
            portion thereof, to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest
            thereon shall cease to accrue on and after said date;

      (6)   the Place or Places of Payment where such Securities, together in
            the case of Bearer Securities with all coupons appertaining thereto,
            if any, maturing after the

                                       64

            Redemption Date, are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption
            Price and accrued interest, if any, or for conversion or exchange;

      (7)   that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case;

      (8)   that, unless otherwise specified in such notice, Bearer Securities
            of any series, if any, surrendered for redemption must be
            accompanied by all coupons maturing subsequent to the date fixed for
            redemption or the amount of any such missing coupon or coupons will
            be deducted from the Redemption Price, unless security or indemnity
            satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee for such series and any
            Paying Agent is furnished;

      (9)   if Bearer Securities of any series are to be redeemed and any
            Registered Securities of such series are not to be redeemed, and if
            such Bearer Securities may be exchanged for Registered Securities
            not subject to the redemption on such Redemption Date pursuant to
            Section 305 or otherwise, the last date, as determined by the
            Company, on which such exchanges may be made;

      (10)  the CUSIP, CINS or ISIN number of such Security, if any, provided
            that neither the Company nor the Trustee shall have any
            responsibility for any such CUSIP, CINS or ISIN number;

      (11)  if applicable, that a Holder of Securities who desires to convert or
            exchange Securities to be redeemed must satisfy the requirements for
            conversion or exchange contained in such Securities, the then
            existing conversion or exchange price or rate and the date and time
            when the option to convert or exchange shall expire and the place or
            places where such Securities may be surrendered for conversion or
            exchange; and

      (12)  such other information as the Trustee reasonably deems appropriate.

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

      SECTION 1105. 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 is acting as its own Paying
Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of
money in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite
currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable
(except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 for the Securities of
such series) sufficient to pay on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price of,
and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued
interest on, all the Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on
that date.

                                       65

      SECTION 1106. 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 in the currency or currencies, currency unit
or units or composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such
series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 for
the Securities of such series) (together with accrued interest and Additional
Amounts payable with respect thereto, if any, on the Redemption Date), and from
and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the
Redemption Price and accrued interest and Additional Amounts, if any) such
Securities shall, if the same were interest-bearing, cease to bear interest and
the coupons for such interest appertaining to any Bearer Securities so to be
redeemed, except to the extent provided below, shall be void. Upon surrender of
any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, together with
all coupons, if any, appertaining thereto maturing after the Redemption Date,
such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together
with accrued interest and Additional Amounts payable with respect thereto, if
any, on the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on
Bearer Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date
shall be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States
(except as otherwise provided in Section 1002) and, unless otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 301, only upon presentation and surrender of coupons
for such interest; and provided further that except as otherwise provided with
respect to Securities convertible or exchangeable into other securities or
property (including securities of other issuers) of the Company, installments of
interest on Registered Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the
Redemption Date shall 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
307.

      If any Bearer Security surrendered for redemption shall not be accompanied
by all appurtenant coupons maturing after the Redemption Date, such Security may
be paid after deducting from the Redemption Price an amount equal to the face
amount of all such missing coupons, or the surrender of such missing coupon or
coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee if there be furnished to
them such security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any
Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Security shall surrender
to the Trustee or any Paying Agent any such missing coupon in respect of which a
deduction shall have been made from the Redemption Price, such Holder shall be
entitled to receive the amount so deducted; provided, however, that interest
represented by coupons shall be payable only at an office or agency located
outside the United States (except as otherwise provided in Section 1002) and,
unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, only upon
presentation and surrender of those coupons. If any Security called for
redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the
principal, (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the
Redemption Date at the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of
Original Issue Discount Securities) set forth in such Security.

      SECTION 1107. Securities Redeemed in Part.

      Any Registered Security which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant to
the provisions of this Article or of Article Twelve) shall be surrendered at a
Place of Payment therefor (with, if

                                       66

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 shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the
Holder of such Security without service charge a new Registered Security or
Registered Securities of the same series and tenor, 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 Registered
Security so surrendered.

                                 ARTICLE TWELVE
                                  SINKING FUNDS

      SECTION 1201. Applicability of Article.

      The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for
the retirement of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of such series.

      The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms
of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a "mandatory sinking fund
payment," and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the
terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an "optional sinking
fund payment." If provided for by the terms of any Securities of any series, the
cash amount of any mandatory sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as
provided in Section 1202. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the
redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of
Securities of such series.

      SECTION 1202. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

      The Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part of any mandatory
sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of a series, (1) deliver
Outstanding Securities of such series (other than any previously called for
redemption) together in the case of any Bearer Securities of such series with
all unmatured coupons appertaining thereto and (2) apply as a credit Securities
of such series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company
pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted
optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, as
provided for by the terms of such Securities, or which have otherwise been
acquired by the Company; provided that such Securities so delivered or applied
as a credit have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be
received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the applicable
Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation
of the sinking fund and the amount of such mandatory sinking fund payment shall
be reduced accordingly.

      SECTION 1203. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

      Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for
Securities of any series, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund
payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion
thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash in the currency or
currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which
the Securities of

                                       67

such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301
for the Securities of such series) and the portion thereof, if any, which is to
be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to
Section 1202, the basis for such credit and that such Securities have not
previously been so credited and the amount of optional sinking fund payments, if
any, to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and
will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered and credited.
If such Officers' Certificate shall specify an optional amount to be added in
cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, the Company shall
thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein specified. Not less than 30
days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the
Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner
specified in Section 1103 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given
in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in
Section 1104. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such
Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections
1105, 1106 and 1107.

                                ARTICLE THIRTEEN
                       REPAYMENT AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS

      SECTION 1301. Applicability of Article.

      Repayment of Securities of any series before their Stated Maturity at the
option of Holders thereof shall be made in accordance with the terms of such
Securities, if any, and (except as otherwise specified by the terms of such
series established pursuant to Section 301) in accordance with this Article.

      SECTION 1302. Repayment of Securities.

      Securities of any series subject to repayment in whole or in part at the
option of the Holders thereof will, unless otherwise provided in the terms of
such Securities, be repaid at a price equal to the principal amount thereon,
together with interest, if any, thereof accrued to the Repayment Date specified
in or pursuant to the terms of such Securities and Additional Amounts, if any,
payable thereon. The Company covenants that on or before the Repayment Date it
will deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is
acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in
Section 1003) an amount of money in the currency or currencies, currency unit or
units or composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series
are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 for the
Securities of such series) sufficient to pay the principal (or, if so provided
by the terms of the Securities of any series, a percentage of the principal) of,
and (except if the Repayment Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued
interest on, all the Securities or portions thereof, as the case may be, to be
repaid on such date and Additional Amounts, if any, payable thereon.

      SECTION 1303. Exercise of Option.

      Securities of any series subject to repayment at the option of the Holders
thereof will contain an "Option to Elect Repayment" form on the reverse of such
Securities. In order for any Security to be repaid at the option of the Holder,
the Trustee must receive at the Place of Payment therefor specified in the terms
of such Security (or at such other place or places of

                                       68

which the Company shall from time to time notify the Holders of such Securities
and the Trustee) not earlier than 60 days nor later than 30 days prior to the
Repayment Date (1) the Security so providing for such repayment together with
the "Option to Elect Repayment" form on the reverse thereof duly completed by
the Holder (or by the Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing) or (2) a
telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or a letter from a member of a national
securities exchange, or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
("NASD"), or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States setting
forth the name of the Holder of the Security, the principal amount of the
Security, the principal amount of the Security to be repaid, the CUSIP, CINS or
ISIN number, if any, or a description of the tenor and terms of the Security, a
statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised thereby and a
guarantee that the Security to be repaid, together with the duly completed form
entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" on the reverse of the Security, will be
received by the Trustee not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of
such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter; provided, however, that
such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter shall only be effective
if such Security and form duly completed are received by the Trustee by such
fifth Business Day. If less than the entire principal amount of such Security is
to be repaid in accordance with the terms of such Security, the principal amount
of such Security to be repaid, in increments of the minimum denomination for
Securities of such series, and the denomination or denominations of the Security
or Securities to be issued to the Holder for the portion of the principal amount
of such Security surrendered that is not to be repaid, must be specified. The
principal amount of any Security providing for repayment at the option of the
Holder thereof may not be repaid in part if, following such repayment, the
unpaid principal amount of such Security would be less than the minimum
authorized denomination of Securities of or within the series of which such
Security to be repaid is a part. Except as otherwise may be provided by the
terms of any Security providing for repayment at the option of the Holder
thereof, exercise of the repayment option by the Holder shall be irrevocable
unless waived by the Company.

      SECTION 1304. When Securities Presented for Repayment Become Due and
Payable.

      If Securities of any series providing for repayment at the option of the
Holders thereof shall have been surrendered as provided in this Article and as
provided by or pursuant to the terms of such Securities, such Securities or the
portions thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid shall become due and payable
and shall be paid by the Company on the Repayment Date therein specified, and on
and after such Repayment Date (unless the Company shall default in the payment
of such Securities on such Repayment Date) such Securities shall, if the same
were interest bearing, cease to bear interest and the coupons for such interest
appertaining to any Bearer Securities so to be repaid, except to the extent
provided below, shall be void. Upon surrender of any such Security for repayment
in accordance with such provisions, together with all coupons, if any,
appertaining thereto maturing after the Repayment Date, the principal amount of
such security so to be repaid shall be paid by the Company, together with
accrued interest, if any, to the Repayment Date; provided, however, that coupons
whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Repayment Date shall be payable only
at an office or agency located outside the United States (except as otherwise
provided in Section 1002) and, unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section
301, only upon presentation and surrender of such coupons; and provided further
that, in the case of Registered Securities, installments of interest, if any,
whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Repayment Date shall be payable (but
without interest thereon, unless the Company shall default in the payment
thereof) to the Holders of such Securities, or

                                       69

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 307.

      If any Bearer Security surrendered for repayment shall not be accompanied
by all appurtenant coupons maturing after the Repayment Date, such Security may
be paid after deducting from the amount payable therefor as provided in Section
1302 an amount equal to the face amount of all such missing coupons, or the
surrender of such missing coupon or coupons may be waived by the Company and the
Trustee if there be furnished to them such security or indemnity as they may
require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the
Holder of such Security shall surrender to the Trustee or any Paying Agent any
such missing coupon in respect of which a deduction shall have been made as
provided in the preceding sentence, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the
amount so deducted; provided, however, that interest represented by coupons
shall be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States
(except as otherwise provided in Section 1002) and, unless otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 301, only upon presentation and surrender of those
coupons. If the principal amount of any Security surrendered for repayment shall
not be so repaid upon surrender thereof, such principal amount (together with
interest, if any, thereon accrued to such Repayment Date) shall, until paid,
bear interest from the Repayment Date at the rate of interest or Yield to
Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) set forth in such
Security.

      SECTION 1305. Securities Repaid in Part.

      Upon surrender of any Registered Security which is to be repaid in part
only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
to the Holder of such Security, without service charge and at the expense of the
Company, a new Registered Security or Securities of the same series and tenor,
of any authorized denomination specified by the Holder, in an aggregate
principal amount equal to and in exchange for the portion of the principal of
such Security so surrendered which is not to be repaid.

                                ARTICLE FOURTEEN
                       DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

      SECTION 1401. Applicability of Article; Company's Option to Effect
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

      If, pursuant to Section 301, provision is made for either or both of (a)
defeasance of the Securities of or within a series under Section 1402 or (b)
covenant defeasance of the Securities of or within a series under Section 1403
to be applicable to the Securities of any series, then the provisions of such
Section or Sections, as the case may be, together with the other provisions of
this Article (with such modifications thereto as may be specified pursuant to
Section 301 with respect to any Securities), shall be applicable to such
Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto, and the Company may at its
option by Board Resolution at any time, with respect to such Securities and any
coupons appertaining thereto, elect to defease such Outstanding Securities and
any coupons appertaining thereto pursuant to Section 1402 (if applicable) or
Section 1403 (if applicable) upon compliance with the conditions set forth below
in this Article.

                                       70

      SECTION 1402. Defeasance and Discharge.

      Upon the Company's exercise of the above option applicable to this Section
with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company and Guarantors
shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to
such Outstanding Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto on the date the
conditions set forth in Section 1404 are satisfied (hereinafter, "defeasance").
For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have
paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Outstanding
Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto, which shall thereafter be
deemed to be "Outstanding" only for the purposes of Section 1405 and the other
Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (A) and (B) below, and to have
satisfied all of its other obligations under such Securities and any coupons
appertaining thereto and this Indenture insofar as such Securities and any
coupons appertaining thereto are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of
the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except
for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged
hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of such Outstanding Securities and any
coupons appertaining thereto to receive, solely from the trust fund described in
Section 1404 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of
the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Securities
and any coupons appertaining thereto when such payments are due, (B) the
Company's obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 305, 306,
1002 and 1003 and with respect to the payment of Additional Amounts, if any, on
such Securities as contemplated by Section 1011, (C) the rights, powers, trusts,
duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder including but not limited to
Section 606 hereof and (D) this Article. Subject to compliance with this Article
Fourteen, the Company may exercise its option under this Section notwithstanding
the prior exercise of its option under Section 1403 with respect to such
Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto.

      SECTION 1403. Covenant Defeasance.

      Upon the Company's exercise of the above option applicable to this Section
with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company and Guarantors
shall be released from their obligations under Sections 1005 to 1009, inclusive,
and, if specified pursuant to Section 301, its obligations under any other
covenant, with respect to such Outstanding Securities and any coupons
appertaining thereto on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section
1404 are satisfied (hereinafter, "covenant defeasance"), and such Securities and
any coupons appertaining thereto shall thereafter be deemed to be not
"Outstanding" for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration
or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with
Sections 1005 to 1009, inclusive, or such other covenant, but shall continue to
be deemed "Outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such
covenant defeasance means that, with respect to such Outstanding Securities and
any coupons appertaining thereto, 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 Section or such other covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by
reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or such other
covenant or by reason of reference in any such Section or such other covenant to
any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply
shall not constitute a default or an Event of Default under Section 501(4) or
501(7) or otherwise, as the case may be,

                                       71

but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such
Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto shall be unaffected thereby.

      SECTION 1404. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

      The following shall be the conditions to application of Section 1402 or
Section 1403 to any Outstanding Securities of or within a series and any coupons
appertaining thereto:

      (a) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be 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
benefit of the Holders of such Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto,
(1) an amount in such currency, currencies or currency unit in which such
Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto are then specified as payable at
Stated Maturity, or (2) Government Obligations applicable to such Securities and
coupons appertaining thereto (determined on the basis of the currency,
currencies or currency unit in which such Securities and coupons appertaining
thereto are then specified as payable at Stated Maturity) which through the
scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance
with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any
payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest and Additional
Amounts, if any, on such Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto, money
in an amount, or (3) a combination thereof in an amount, sufficient, without
consideration of any reinvestment of such principal and interest, in the opinion
of a 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, (i) the
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Outstanding
Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto on the Stated Maturity of such
principal or installment of principal or interest or on a Redemption Date
therefor and (ii) any mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments
applicable to such Outstanding Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto
on the day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the
terms of this Indenture and of such Securities and any coupons appertaining
thereto; provided, that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to
apply such money or the proceeds of such Government Obligations to said payments
with respect to such Securities. Before such a deposit, the Company may give to
the Trustee, in accordance with Section 1102 hereof, a notice of its election to
redeem all or any portion of such Outstanding Securities at a future date in
accordance with the terms of the Securities of such series and Article Eleven
hereof, which notice shall be irrevocable. Such irrevocable redemption notice,
if given, shall be given effect in applying the foregoing.

      (b) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or
violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or any other
material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it
is bound (and shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest
pursuant to Section 310(b) of the TIA with respect to any Security of the
Company).

      (c) No Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or
both would become an Event of Default with respect to such Securities and any
coupons appertaining thereto shall have occurred and be continuing on the date
of such deposit or, insofar as Sections 501(5) and 501(6) are concerned, at any
time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of

                                       72

such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed
satisfied until the expiration of such period).

      (d) In the case of an election under Section 1402, the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) the Company has
received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a
ruling, or (ii) since the date of execution 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 shall confirm that, the Holders of such
Outstanding Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto will not recognize
income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such
defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the
same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance
had not occurred.

      (e) In the case of an election under Section 1403, the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of
such Outstanding Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto will not
recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of
such covenant defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if
such covenant defeasance had not occurred.

      (f) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent to the defeasance under Section 1402 or the covenant defeasance under
Section 1403 (as the case may be) have been complied with and an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that either (i) as a result of a deposit pursuant to
subsection (a) above and the related exercise of the Company's option under
Section 1402 or Section 1403 (as the case may be) registration is not required
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, by the Company, with
respect to the trust funds representing such deposit or by the Trustee for such
trust funds or (ii) all necessary registrations under said Act have been
effected.

      (g) After the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be
subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization
or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally.

      (h) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, such defeasance
or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with any additional or
substitute terms, conditions or limitations which may be imposed on the Company
in connection therewith pursuant to Section 301.

      SECTION 1405. Deposited Money and Government Obligations to Be Held in
Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

      Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money
and Government Obligations (or other property as may be provided pursuant to
Section 301) (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee
pursuant to Section 1404 in respect of any Outstanding Securities of any series
and any coupons appertaining thereto shall be held in trust and applied by the
Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and any coupons
appertaining thereto and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or
through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent)
as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities and any

                                       73

coupons appertaining thereto of all sums due and to become due thereon in
respect of principal (and premium, if any) and interest and Additional Amounts,
if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required by law.

      Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Security pursuant to
Section 301, if, after a deposit referred to in Section 1404(a) has been made,
(a) the Holder of a Security in respect of which such deposit was made is
entitled to, and does, elect pursuant to Section 301 or the terms of such
Security to receive payment in a currency or currency unit other than that in
which the deposit pursuant to Section 1404(a) has been made in respect of such
Security, or (b) a Conversion Event occurs in respect of the currency or
currency unit in which the deposit pursuant to Section 1404(a) has been made,
the indebtedness represented by such Security and any coupons appertaining
thereto shall be deemed to have been, and will be, fully discharged and
satisfied through the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any), and
interest, if any, on such Security as the same becomes due and Additional
Amounts, if any, out of the proceeds yielded by converting (from time to time as
specified below in the case of any such election) the amount or other property
deposited in respect of such Security into the currency or currency unit in
which such Security becomes payable as a result of such election or Conversion
Event based on the applicable market exchange rate for such currency or currency
unit in effect on the second Business Day prior to each payment date, except,
with respect to a Conversion Event, for such currency or currency unit in effect
(as nearly as feasible) at the time of the Conversion Event.

      The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or
other charge imposed on or assessed against the Government Obligations deposited
pursuant to Section 1404 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 such Outstanding Securities and any coupons
appertaining thereto.

      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 Government Obligations (or other property and any proceeds therefrom)
held by it as provided in Section 1404 which, in the opinion of a 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 a defeasance or
covenant defeasance, as applicable, in accordance with this Article.

                                 ARTICLE FIFTEEN
                        MEETINGS OF HOLDERS OF SECURITIES

      SECTION 1501. Purposes for Which Meetings May Be Called.

      A meeting of Holders of Securities of any series may be called at any time

request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action provided by this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders of
Securities of such series.

                                       74

      SECTION 1502. Call, Notice and Place of Meetings.

      (a) The Trustee may at any time call a meeting of Holders of Securities of
any series for any purpose specified in Section 1501, to be held at such time
and at such place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or in
London, England as the Trustee shall determine. Notice of every meeting of
Holders of Securities of any series, 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 given, in the manner provided in Section 106, not less than 21
nor more than 180 days prior to the date fixed for the meeting.

      (b) In case at any time the Company, pursuant to a Board Resolution, or
the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
any series shall have requested the Trustee to call a meeting of the Holders of
Securities of such series for any purpose specified in Section 1501, by written
request setting forth in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at
the meeting, and the Trustee shall not have made the first publication of the
notice of such meeting within 21 days after receipt of such request or shall not
thereafter proceed to cause the meeting to be held as provided herein, then the
Company or the Holders of Securities of such series in the amount above
specified, as the case may be, may determine the time and the place in the
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York or in London, England for
such meeting and may call such meeting for such purposes by giving notice
thereof as provided in subsection (a) of this Section.

      SECTION 1503. Persons Entitled to Vote at Meetings.

      To be entitled to vote at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any
series, a Person shall be (1) a Holder of one or more Outstanding Securities of
such series, or (2) a Person appointed by an instrument in writing as proxy for
a Holder or Holders of one or more Outstanding Securities of such series by such
Holder or Holders. The only Persons who shall be entitled to be present or to
speak at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series shall be the Persons
entitled to vote at such meeting and their counsel, any representatives of the
Trustee and its counsel and any representatives of the Company and its counsel.

      SECTION 1504. Quorum; Action.

      The Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of a series shall constitute a quorum for a meeting of
Holders of Securities of such series; provided, however, that if any action is
to be taken at such meeting with respect to a consent or waiver which this
Indenture expressly provides may be given by the Holders of not less than a
specified percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a
series, the Persons entitled to vote such specified percentage in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall constitute a quorum.
In the absence of a quorum within 30 minutes after the time appointed for any
such meeting, the meeting shall, if convened at the request of Holders of
Securities of such series, be dissolved. In any other case the meeting may be
adjourned for a period of not less than 10 days as determined by the chairman of
the meeting prior to the adjournment of such meeting. In the absence of a quorum
at any such adjourned meeting, such adjourned meeting may be further adjourned
for a period of not less than 10 days as determined by the chairman of the
meeting prior to the adjournment of such adjourned meeting. Notice of

                                       75

the reconvening of any adjourned meeting shall be given as provided in Section
1502(a), except that such notice need be given only once not less than five (5)
days prior to the date on which the meeting is scheduled to be reconvened.
Notice of the reconvening of any adjourned meeting shall state expressly the
percentage, as provided above, of the principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such series which shall constitute a quorum. Except as limited by
the proviso to Section 902, any resolution presented to a meeting or adjourned
meeting duly reconvened at which a quorum is present as aforesaid may be adopted
by the affirmative vote of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series; provided, however, that, except as
limited by the proviso to Section 902, any resolution with respect to any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action which this Indenture expressly provides may be made, given or taken by
the Holders of a specified percentage, which is less than a majority, in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series may be adopted at a
meeting or an adjourned meeting duly reconvened and at which a quorum is present
as aforesaid by the affirmative vote of the Holders of such specified percentage
in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series.

      Any resolution passed or decision taken at any meeting of Holders of
Securities of any series duly held in accordance with this Section shall be
binding on all the Holders of Securities of such series and the related coupons,
whether or not present or represented at the meeting.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1504, if any
action is to be taken at a meeting of Holders of Securities of any series with
respect to any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action that this Indenture expressly provides may be made, given
or taken by the Holders of a specified percentage in principal amount of all
Outstanding Securities affected thereby, or of the Holders of such series and
one or more additional series:

      (i)   there shall be no minimum quorum requirement for such meeting; and

      (ii)  the principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series
            that vote in favor of such request, demand, authorization,
            direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be taken
            into account in determining whether such request, demand,
            authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action
            has been made, given or taken under this Indenture.

      SECTION 1505. Determination of Voting Rights; Conduct and Adjournment of
Meetings.

      (a) Notwithstanding any provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee may make
such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for any meeting of Holders
of Securities of a series in regard to proof of the holding of Securities of
such series 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 deem appropriate. Except as
otherwise permitted or required by any such regulations, 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 Section 104
or by having the signature of the Person executing the proxy witnessed

                                       76

or guaranteed by any trust company, bank or banker authorized by Section 104 to
certify to the holding of Bearer Securities. Such regulations may provide that
written instruments appointing proxies, regular on their face, may be presumed
valid and genuine without the proof specified in Section 104 or other proof.

      (b) The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary
chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have been called by the
Company or by Holders of Securities as provided in Section 1502(b), in which
case the Company or the Holders of Securities of or within the series calling
the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like manner appoint a temporary
chairman. A permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the meeting shall be
elected by vote of the Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting.

      (c) At any meeting each Holder of a Security of such series or proxy shall
be entitled to one vote for each $1,000 principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such series 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 chairman of the meeting to be not
Outstanding. The chairman of the meeting shall have no right to vote, except as
a Holder of a Security of such series or proxy.

      (d) Any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series duly called
pursuant to Section 1502 at which a quorum is present may be adjourned from time
to time by Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting, and the
meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice.

      SECTION 1506. Counting Votes and Recording Action of Meetings.

      The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of Holders of
Securities of any series shall be by written ballots on which shall be
subscribed the signatures of the Holders of Securities of such series or of
their representatives by proxy and the principal amounts and serial numbers of
the Outstanding Securities of such series held or represented by them. The
permanent chairman 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 secretary of the meeting their verified written
reports in duplicate of all votes cast at the meeting. A record, at least in
duplicate, of the proceedings of each meeting of Holders of Securities of any
series shall be prepared by the secretary 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 fact, setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and
showing that said notice was given as provided in Section 1502 and, if
applicable, Section 1504. Each copy shall be signed and verified by the
affidavits of the permanent chairman and secretary of the meeting and one such
copy shall be delivered to the Company and another 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.

                                       77

      SECTION 1507. Evidence of Action Taken by Holders.

      Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or
other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by a specified
percentage in principal amount of the Holders of any or all series may be
embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar
tenor signed by such specified percentage of Holders in person or by agent duly
appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such
action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered
to the Trustee. Proof of execution of any instrument or of a writing appointing
any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and
(subject to Article Six) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if
made in the manner provided in this Article.

      SECTION 1508. Proof of Execution of Instruments.

      Subject to Article Six, the execution of any instrument by a Holder or his
agent or proxy may be proved in accordance with such reasonable rules and
regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be
satisfactory to the Trustee.

                                 ARTICLE SIXTEEN
                      CONVERSION OR EXCHANGE OF SECURITIES

      SECTION 1601. Applicability of Article.

      The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to the Securities of
any series which are convertible or exchangeable for other securities or
property (including securities of other issuers) of the Company, except as
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for the Securities of such
series.

      SECTION 1602. Election to Exchange; Notice to Trustee and Holders.

      The election of the Company to exchange any Securities shall be evidenced
by a Board Resolution or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section
301 for such Securities. On or prior to the seventh Business Day prior to
Maturity of the Securities, the Company shall provide written notice to the
Holders of record of the Securities and to the Trustee and will publish a notice
in an Authorized Newspaper stating whether the Company has made such election.

      SECTION 1603. No Fractional Shares.

      No fractional shares or fractional securities shall be delivered upon
conversions or exchanges of Securities of any series. If more than one Security
shall be surrendered for conversion or exchange at one time by the same Holder,
the number of full shares or units which shall be delivered upon conversion or
exchange shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the
Securities (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted hereby) so
surrendered. If, except for the provisions of this Section 1603, any Holder of a
Security or Securities would be entitled to a fractional share or unit of a
security upon the conversion or exchange of such Security or Securities, or
specified portions thereof, the Company shall pay to

                                       78

such Holder an amount in cash equal to the current market value of such
fractional share or unit computed on the basis of the Closing Price of such
security on the date preceding the date on which the conversion or exchange
shall be effected in accordance with Section 1610. The "Closing Price" of any
security on any date of determination means, (i) if such security is listed or
admitted to unlisted trading privileges on a national securities exchange, the
last reported sales price on the composite tape on such exchange, or (ii) if
such security is not at the time so listed or admitted to unlisted trading
privileges on a national securities exchange, the average of the bid and asked
prices of such security in the over-the-counter market, as reported by the
National Quotation Bureau, Incorporated or similar organization if the National
Quotation Bureau, Incorporated is no longer reporting such information, or if
not so available, the market price as determined by a nationally recognized
independent investment banking firm retained for this purpose by the Company.

      SECTION 1604. Adjustment of Conversion Rate or Exchange Rate.

      The exchange rate or conversion rate of Securities of any series that are
exchangeable for or convertible into other securities or property (including
securities of other issuers) shall be adjusted for any stock dividends, stock
splits, reclassification, combinations or similar transactions or any
consolidation, merger or other reorganization event in accordance with the terms
of the supplemental indenture or Board Resolution setting forth the terms of the
Securities of such series.

      Whenever the exchange rate or conversion rate is adjusted, the Company
shall compute the adjusted exchange rate or conversion rate in accordance with
terms of the applicable Board Resolution or supplemental indenture and shall
prepare an Officers' Certificate setting forth the adjusted exchange rate or
conversion rate and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such
adjustment is based, and such certificate shall forthwith be filed at each
office or agency maintained for the purpose of exchange or conversion of
Securities pursuant to Section 1002 and, if different, with the Trustee. The
Company shall forthwith cause a notice setting forth the adjusted exchange rate
or conversion rate to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder of
Securities of such series at its address appearing on the Security Register and
to any exchange agent or conversion agent other than the Trustee.

      SECTION 1605. Payment of Certain Taxes Upon Exchange.

      The Company will pay any and all taxes that may be payable in respect of
the transfer and delivery of shares of other securities or property (including
securities of other issuers) of the Company on exchange or conversion of
Securities pursuant hereto. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay
any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the delivery
of shares of securities in a name other than that of the Holder of the Security
or Securities to be exchanged or converted, and no such transfer or delivery
shall be made unless and until the person requesting such transfer has paid to
the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established, to the satisfaction
of the Company, that such tax has been paid.

                                       79

      SECTION 1606. Shares Free and Clear.

      The Company hereby warrants that upon exchange or conversion of Securities
of any series, the Holder of a Security shall receive all rights held by the
Company in such security for which such Security is at such time exchangeable or
convertible under this Article Sixteen, free and clear of any and all liens,
claims, charges and encumbrances other than any liens, claims, charges and
encumbrances which may have been placed on any such security by the prior owner
thereof, prior to the time such security was acquired by the Company. Except as
provided in Section 1605, the Company will pay all taxes and charges with
respect to the delivery of such security delivered in exchange or conversion for
Securities hereunder.

      SECTION 1607. Cancellation of Security.

      Upon receipt by the Trustee of Securities of any series delivered to it
for exchange or conversion under this Article Sixteen, the Trustee shall cancel
and dispose of the same as provided in Section 309.

      SECTION 1608. Duties of Trustee Regarding Exchange and Conversion.

      Neither the Trustee nor any exchange agent or conversion agent shall at
any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Securities of any
series that is exchangeable or convertible into other securities or property
(including securities of other issuers) of the Company to determine whether any
facts exist which may require any adjustment of the exchange rate or conversion
rate, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made,
or with respect to the method employed, whether herein or in any supplemental
indenture, any resolutions of the Board of Directors or written instrument
executed by one or more officers of the Company provided to be employed in
making the same. Neither the Trustee nor any exchange agent or conversion agent
shall be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or
amount) of any securities or property (including securities of other issuers, of
the Company, or of any Securities and neither the Trustee nor any exchange agent
or any conversion agent makes any representation with respect thereto. Subject
to the provisions of Section 612 and TIA Sections 315(a) through 313(d), neither
the Trustee nor any exchange agent or conversion agent shall be responsible for
any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any stock certificates
or other securities or property (including securities of other issuers) upon the
surrender of any Security for the purpose of exchange or conversion or to comply
with any of the covenants of the Company contained in this Article Sixteen or in
the applicable supplemental indenture, resolutions of the Board of Directors or
written instrument executed by one or more duly authorized officers of the
Company.

      SECTION 1609. Repayment of Certain Funds Upon Exchange or Conversion.

      Any funds which at any time shall have been deposited by the Company or on
its behalf with the Trustee or any other paying agent for the purpose of paying
the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on any of the
Securities (including funds deposited for the sinking fund referred to in
Article Twelve hereof) and which shall not be required for such purposes because
of the exchange or conversion of such Securities as provided in this Article

                                       80

Sixteen shall after such exchange or conversion be repaid to the Company by the
Trustee upon Company Request.

      SECTION 1610. Exercise of Conversion or Exchange Privilege.

      In order to exercise a conversion or exchange privilege, the Holder of a
Security of a series with such a privilege shall surrender such Security to the
Company at the office or agency maintained for that purpose pursuant to Section
1002, accompanied by written notice to the Company that the Holder elects to
convert or exchange such Security or a specified portion thereof. In the case of
Registered Securities, such notice shall also state, if different from the name
or names (with address) in which the Securities are registered, the name or
names in which the Securities or property (including securities of other
issuers) of the Company which shall be issuable on such conversion or exchange
shall be issued. Registered Securities surrendered for conversion or exchange
shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed by or
accompanied by instruments of transfer in forms satisfactory to the Company and
the Trustee duly executed by the registered Holder or its attorney duly
authorized in writing; and Registered Securities so surrendered for conversion
or exchange during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record
Date to the opening of business on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date
(excluding Securities or portions thereof called for redemption during such
period) shall also be accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company
of an amount equal to the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date on the
principal amount of such Security then being converted or exchanged, and such
interest shall be payable to such registered Holder notwithstanding the
conversion or exchange of such Security, subject to the provisions of Section
307 relating to the payment of Defaulted Interest by the Company. As promptly as
practicable after the receipt of such notice and of any payment required
pursuant to a Board Resolution and, subject to Section 303, set forth, or
determined in the manner provided, in an Officers' Certificate, or established
in one or more indentures supplemental hereto setting forth the terms of such
series of Security, and the surrender of such Security in accordance with such
reasonable regulations as the Company may prescribe, the Company shall issue and
shall deliver, at the office or agency at which such Security is surrendered, to
such Holder or on its written order, securities or property (including
securities of other issuers) of the Company issuable or deliverable upon the
conversion or exchange of such Security (or specified portion thereof), in
accordance with the provisions of such Board Resolution, Officers' Certificate
or supplemental indenture, and cash as provided therein in respect of any
fractional share or unit otherwise issuable upon such conversion or exchange.
Such conversion or exchange shall be deemed to have been effected immediately
prior to the close of business on the date on which such notice and such
payment, if required, shall have been received in proper order for conversion or
exchange by the Company and such Security shall have been surrendered as
aforesaid (unless such Holder shall have so surrendered such Security and shall
have instructed the Company to effect the conversion or exchange on a particular
date following such surrender and such Holder shall be entitled to convert or
exchange such Security on such date, in which case such conversion or exchange
shall be deemed to be effected immediately prior to the close of business on
such date) and at such time the rights of the Holder of such Security as such
Security Holder shall cease and the person or persons in whose name or names any
securities or property (including securities of other issuers) of the Company
shall be issuable or deliverable upon such conversion or exchange shall be
deemed to have become the Holder or Holders of record of the shares represented
thereby. Except as set forth above and subject to the final paragraph of

                                       81

Section 307, no payment or adjustment shall be made upon any conversion or
exchange on account of any interest accrued on the Securities surrendered for
conversion or exchange or on account of any interest or dividends on the
Securities or property (including securities of other issuers) of the Company
issued or delivered upon such conversion or exchange.

      In the case of any Security which is converted or exchanged in part only,
upon such conversion or exchange the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver to or on the order of the Holder thereof, at the
expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of
authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted
or unexchanged portion of such Security.

      SECTION 1611. Effect of Consolidation or Merger on Exchange or Conversion
Privilege.

      In case of any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company
into or with any other Person, or in case of any sale of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company, the Company or the Person formed by such
consolidation or the Person into which the Company shall have been merged or the
Person which shall have acquired such assets, as the case may be, shall execute
and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing that the Holder of
each Security then Outstanding of any series that is exchangeable for or
convertible into securities of the Company shall have the right, which right
shall be the exclusive exchange or conversion right thereafter available to said
Holder (until the expiration of the exchange or conversion right of such
Security), to exchange or convert such Security into the kind and amount of
shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon
such consolidation, merger or sale by a holder of the number of shares or units
of securities of the Company for which such Security might have been exchanged
or converted immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or sale, subject to
compliance with the other provisions of this Indenture, such Security and such
supplemental indenture. Such supplemental indenture shall provide for
adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the
adjustments provided for in such Security. The above provisions of this Section
shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers or sales. It is
expressly agreed and understood that anything in this Indenture to the contrary
notwithstanding, if, pursuant to such merger, consolidation or sale, holders of
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company or other securities, into
which the Security is exchangeable or convertible do not receive shares of
common stock or corresponding other securities of the surviving corporation, but
receive other securities, cash or other property or any combination thereof,
Holders of Securities shall not have the right to thereafter exchange their
Securities for or convert their Securities into common stock or other securities
having substantially identical terms as the Company securities, for which the
Security was originally exchangeable or into which the Security was originally
convertible, of the surviving corporation or the corporation which shall have
acquired such assets, but rather, shall have the right upon such exchange or
conversion to receive the other securities, cash or other property receivable by
a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock or such or other securities of
the Company for or into which the Securities held by such holder might have been
exchanged or converted immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or sale,
all as more fully provided in the first sentence of this Section 1611. Anything
in this Section 1611 to the contrary notwithstanding, the provisions of this
Section 1611 shall not apply to a merger or consolidation of another corporation
with or into the Company pursuant to which both of the following

                                       82

conditions are applicable: (i) the Company is the surviving corporation and (ii)
the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or other securities of the
Company for which the Security was originally exchangeable or into which the
Security was originally convertible are not changed or converted into any other
securities or property (including cash) or reclassified pursuant to the terms of
such merger or consolidation.

      As evidence of the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities
or property (including cash) into which Securities may properly be exchangeable
or convertible after any such consolidation, merger or sale, or as to the
appropriate adjustments of the conversion prices or exchange rates applicable
with respect thereto, the Trustee shall be furnished with and may accept the
certificate or opinion of an independent certified public accountant with
respect thereto; and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee,
the Trustee may conclusively rely thereon, and shall not be responsible or
accountable to any Holder of Securities for any provision in conformity
therewith or approved by such independent certified accountant which may be
contained in said supplemental indenture.

                                ARTICLE SEVENTEEN
                                   GUARANTEES

      SECTION 1701. Guarantee.

      Any series of Securities may be guaranteed by one or more of the
Guarantors. The terms and the form of any such Guarantee will be established in
the manner contemplated by Section 301 for that particular series of Securities.

      This Indenture 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 Indenture.

                                       83

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be
duly executed by their respective officers hereunto duly authorized, all as of
the day and year first above written.
