    SURRENDER
      AND REDEMPTION OF RECEIPTS

     

    SECTION
      2.1. Form
      and Transfer of Receipts.
      The
      Company and the Depositary shall make application to The Depository Trust
      Company (“DTC”) for acceptance of all or a portion of the Receipts for its
      book-entry settlement system. The Company hereby appoints the Depositary acting
      through any authorized officer thereof as its attorney-in-fact, with full power
      to delegate, for purposes of executing any agreements, certifications or other
      instruments or documents necessary or desirable in order to effect the
      acceptance of such Receipts for DTC eligibility. So long as the Receipts are
      eligible for book-entry settlement with DTC, unless otherwise required by law,
      all Depositary Shares to be traded on the New York Stock Exchange with
      book-entry settlement through DTC shall be represented by a single receipt
      (the
“DTC Receipt”), which shall be deposited with DTC (or its designee) evidencing
      all such Depositary Shares and registered in the name of the nominee of DTC
      (initially expected to be Cede & Co.). The Depositary or such other entity
      as is agreed to by DTC may hold the DTC Receipt as custodian for DTC. Ownership
      of beneficial interests in the DTC Receipt shall be shown on, and the transfer
      of such ownership shall be effected through, records maintained by (i) DTC
      or
      its nominee for such DTC Receipt or (ii) institutions that have accounts with
      DTC.

     

    If
      DTC
      subsequently ceases to make its book-entry settlement system available for
      the
      Receipts, the Company may instruct the Depositary regarding making other
      arrangements for book-entry settlement. In the event that the Receipts are
      not
      eligible for book-entry form, the Depositary shall provide written instructions
      to DTC to deliver to the Depositary for cancellation the DTC Receipt, and the
      Company shall instruct the Depositary to deliver to the beneficial owners of
      the
      Depositary Shares previously evidenced by the DTC definitive Receipts in
      physical form evidencing such Depositary Shares. Such definitive receipts shall
      be in substantially the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A, with appropriate
      insertions, modifications and omissions, as hereafter provided.

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        -2-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    The
      beneficial owners of Depositary Shares shall, except as stated above with
      respect to Depositary Shares in book-entry form represented by the DTC Receipt,
      be entitled to receive Receipts in physical, certificated form as herein
      provided.

     

    The
      definitive Receipts shall be engraved or printed or lithographed on
      steel-engraved borders, with appropriate insertions, modifications and
      omissions, as hereinafter provided, if and to the extent required by any
      securities exchange on which the Receipts are listed. The DTC Receipt shall
      bear
      such legend or legends as may be required by DTC in order for it to accept
      the
      Depositary Shares for its book-entry settlement system. Pending the preparation
      of definitive Receipts or if definitive Receipts are not required by any
      securities exchange on which the Receipts are listed, the Depositary, upon
      the
      written order of the Company, delivered in compliance with Section 2.2 hereof,
      shall execute and deliver temporary Receipts which are printed, lithographed,
      typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise substantially of the tenor of the
      definitive Receipts in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate
      insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the persons
      executing such Receipts may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such
      Receipts. If temporary Receipts are issued, the Company and the Depositary
      will
      cause definitive Receipts to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After
      the
      preparation of definitive Receipts, the temporary Receipts shall be exchangeable
      for definitive Receipts upon surrender of the temporary Receipts at the
      Depositary’s Office or at such other place or places as the Depositary shall
      determine, without charge to the holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of
      any
      one or more temporary Receipts, the Depositary shall execute and deliver in
      exchange therefor definitive Receipts representing the same number of Depositary
      Shares as represented by the surrendered temporary Receipt or Receipts. Such
      exchange shall be made at the Company’s expense and without any charge to the
      holder therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Receipts shall in all
      respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Deposit Agreement, and
      with
      respect to the Stock, as definitive Receipts.

     

    Receipts
      shall be executed by the Depositary by the manual and/or facsimile signature
      of
      a duly authorized officer of the Depositary. No Receipt shall be entitled to
      any
      benefits under this Deposit Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose
      unless it shall have been executed in accordance with the foregoing sentence.
      The Depositary shall record on its books each Receipt so signed and delivered
      as
      hereinafter provided.

     

    Receipts
      shall be in denominations of any number of whole Depositary Shares. The Company
      shall deliver to the Depositary from time to time such quantities of Receipts
      as
      the Depositary may request to enable the Depositary to perform its obligations
      under this Deposit Agreement.

     

    Receipts
      may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends
      or
      recitals or changes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Deposit
      Agreement as may be required by the Company
      or
      required to comply with any applicable law or any regulation thereunder or
      with
      the rules and regulations of any securities exchange upon which the Stock,
      the
      Depositary Shares or the Receipts may be listed or to conform with any usage
      with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions
      to
      which any particular Receipts are subject, all
      as
      directed by the Company.

    Title
      to
      Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt which is properly endorsed or
      accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer shall be transferable
      by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument;
      provided, however, that until transfer of a Receipt shall be registered on
      the
      books of the Depositary as provided in Section 2.3, the Depositary may,
      notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, treat the record holder thereof
      at
      such time as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of determining the
      person entitled to distributions of dividends or other distributions or to
      any
      notice provided for in this Deposit Agreement and for all other
      purposes.

     

    SECTION
      2.2. Deposit
      of Stock; Execution and Delivery of Receipts in Respect Thereof. Subject
      to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Company may from
      time
      to time deposit shares of Stock under this Deposit Agreement by delivery to
      the
      Depositary of a certificate or certificates for the Stock to be deposited,
      properly endorsed or accompanied, if required by the Depositary, by a duly
      executed instrument of transfer or endorsement, in form satisfactory to the
      Depositary, together with (i) all such certifications as may be required by
      the Depositary in accordance with the provisions of this Deposit
      Agreement,
      including the resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company, as certified
      by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company on the date thereof
      as being as being complete, accurate and in effect, relating to issuance and
      sale of the Preferred Stock, (ii) a letter of counsel to the Company authorizing
      reliance on such counsel’s opinions delivered to the underwriters named therein
      relating to (A) the existence and good standing of the Company, (B) the due
      authorization of the Depositary Shares and the status of the Depositary Shares
      as validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and (C) the effectiveness
      of
      any registration statement under the Securities Act relating to the Depositary
      Shares, and (iii) a written letter of instruction
      of the
      Company or such holder, as the case may be, directing the Depositary to execute
      and deliver to, or upon the written order of, the person or persons stated
      in
      such order a Receipt or Receipts for the number of Depositary Shares
      representing such deposited Stock. Deposited Stock shall be held by the
      Depositary at the Depositary’s Office or at such other place or places as the
      Depositary shall determine.

     

    Upon
      receipt by the Depositary of a certificate or certificates for Stock deposited
      in accordance with the provisions of this Section, together with the other
      documents required as above specified, and upon recordation of the Stock on
      the
      books of the Company in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, the
      Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement,
      shall
      execute and deliver, to or upon the order of the person or persons named in
      the
      written order delivered to the Depositary referred to in the first paragraph
      of
      this Section 2.2, a Receipt or Receipts for the whole number of Depositary
      Shares representing, in the aggregate, the Stock so deposited and registered
      in
      such name or names as may be requested by such person or persons. The Depositary
      shall execute and deliver such Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office or
      such other offices, if any, as the Depositary may designate. Delivery at other
      offices shall be at the risk and expense of the person requesting such
      delivery.

     

    SECTION
      2.3. Registration
      of Transfer of Receipts.
      Subject
      to the terms and conditions of applicable law and of this Deposit Agreement,
      the
      Depositary shall register on its books from time to time transfers of Receipts
      upon any surrender thereof by the holder in person or by a duly authorized
      attorney,
      agent or
      representative,
      properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of
      transfer
      including a guarantee of the signature thereon by a participant in a signature
      guarantee medallion program approved by the Securities Transfer
      Associa-

    tion
      (“Signature Guarantee”).
      Thereupon, the Depositary shall execute a new Receipt or Receipts evidencing
      the
      same aggregate number of Depositary Shares as those evidenced by the Receipt
      or
      Receipts surrendered and deliver such new Receipt or Receipts to or upon the
      order of the person entitled thereto.

     

    SECTION
      2.4. Split-ups
      and Combinations of Receipts; Surrender of Receipts and Withdrawal of
      Stock.
      Upon
      surrender of a Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office or at such other
      offices as it may designate for the purpose of effecting a split-up or
      combination of such Receipt or Receipts, and subject to the terms and conditions
      of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall execute and deliver a new
      Receipt or Receipts in the authorized denomination or denominations requested,
      evidencing the aggregate number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipt
      or
      Receipts surrendered; provided, however, that the Depositary shall not issue
      any
      Receipt evidencing a fractional Depositary Share.

     

    Any
      holder of a Receipt or Receipts representing any number of whole shares of
      Stock
      may (unless the related Depositary Shares have previously been called for
      redemption) withdraw the Stock and all money and other property, if any,
      represented thereby by surrendering such Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s
      Office or at such other offices as the Depositary may designate for such
      withdrawals and paying any unpaid amount due the Depositary. If such holder’s
      Depositary Shares are being held by DTC or its nominee pursuant to Section
      2.1
      hereof, such holder shall request withdrawal from the book-entry system of
      Receipts representing any number of whole shares. Thereafter, without
      unreasonable delay, the Depositary shall deliver to such holder or to the person
      or persons designated by such holder as hereinafter provided the number of
      whole
      shares of Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented by the
      Receipt or Receipts so surrendered for withdrawal, but holders of such whole
      shares of Stock will not thereafter be entitled to deposit such Stock hereunder
      or to receive Depositary Shares therefor. If a Receipt delivered by the holder
      to the Depositary in connection with such withdrawal shall evidence a number
      of
      Depositary Shares in excess of the number of Depositary Shares representing
      the
      number of whole shares of Stock to be so withdrawn, the Depositary shall at
      the
      same time, in addition to such number of whole shares of Stock and such money
      and other property, if any, to be so withdrawn, deliver to such holder, or
      upon
      his order, a new Receipt evidencing such excess number of Depositary Shares;
      provided, however, that the Depositary shall not issue any Receipt evidencing
      a
      fractional Depositary Share.

     

    Delivery
      of the Stock and money and other property being withdrawn may be made by the
      delivery of such certificates, documents of title and other instruments as
      the
      Depositary may deem appropriate, which, if required by the Depositary, shall
      be
      properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer.

     

    If
      the
      Stock and the money and other property being withdrawn are to be delivered
      to a
      person or persons other than the record holder of the Receipt or Receipts being
      surrendered for withdrawal of Stock, such holder shall execute and deliver
      to
      the Depositary a written order so directing the Depositary and the Depositary
      may require that the Receipt or Receipts surrendered by such holder for
      withdrawal of such shares of Stock be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied
      by a properly executed instrument of transfer in blank.

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        -5-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    Delivery
      of the Stock and the money and other property, if any, represented by Receipts
      surrendered for withdrawal shall be made by the Depositary at the Depositary’s
      Office, except that, at the request, risk and expense of the holder surrendering
      such Receipt or Receipts and for the account of the holder thereof, such
      delivery may be made at such other place as may be designated by such
      holder.

     

    SECTION
      2.5. Limitations
      on Execution and Delivery, Transfer, Surrender and Exchange of
      Receipts.
      As a
      condition precedent to the execution and delivery, registration of transfer,
      split-up, combination, surrender or exchange of any Receipt, the Depositary,
      any
      of the Depositary’s Agents or the Company may require payment to it of a sum
      sufficient for the payment (or, in the event that the Depositary or the Company
      shall have made such payment, the reimbursement to it) of any charges or
      expenses payable by the holder of a Receipt pursuant to Sections 3.2 and 5.7
      hereof, may require the production of evidence satisfactory to it as to the
      identity and genuineness of any signature
      including a Signature Guarantee,
      and may
      also require compliance with such regulations, if any, as the Depositary or
      the
      Company may establish consistent with the provisions of this Deposit
      Agreement.

     

    The
      deposit of Stock may be refused, the delivery of Receipts against Stock may
      be
      suspended, the registration of transfer of Receipts may be refused and the
      registration of transfer, surrender or exchange of outstanding Receipts may
      be
      suspended (i) during any period when the register of stockholders of the Company
      is closed, or (ii) if any such action is deemed necessary or advisable by the
      Depositary, any of the Depositary’s Agents or the Company at any time or from
      time to time because of any requirement of law or of any government or
      governmental body or commission or under any provision of this Deposit
      Agreement.

     

    SECTION
      2.6. Lost
      Receipts, etc. 
      In
      case
      any Receipt shall be mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Depositary in
      its
      reasonable discretion may execute and deliver a Receipt of like form and tenor
      in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Receipt, or in lieu of and
      in
      substitution for such destroyed, lost or stolen Receipt, upon (i) the filing
      by
      the holder thereof with the Depositary of evidence reasonably satisfactory
      to
      the Depositary of such destruction or loss or theft of such Receipt, of the
      authenticity thereof and of his or her ownership thereof, (ii) the
      furnishing of the Depositary with reasonable indemnification and
      the
      provision of an open penalty surety bond satisfactory
      to the Depositary and holding
      it and the
      Company
      harmless,
      and
      (iii)
      the payment of any reasonable expense (including reasonable fees, charges and
      expenses of the Depositary) in connection with such execution and
      delivery.

     

    SECTION
      2.7. Cancellation
      and Destruction of Surrendered Receipts.
      All
      Receipts surrendered to the Depositary or any Depositary’s Agent shall be
      cancelled by the Depositary. Except as prohibited by applicable law or
      regulation, the Company is authorized to destroy all Receipts so
      cancelled.

     

    SECTION
      2.8. Redemption
      of Stock.
      Whenever the Company shall be permitted and shall elect to redeem shares of
      Stock in accordance with the provisions of the Company’s Articles of
      Incorporation or Articles Supplementary, it shall (unless otherwise agreed
      to in
      writing with the Depositary) give or cause to be given to the Depositary not
      less than 45 days notice of the date of such proposed redemption or exchange
      of
      Stock and of the number of such shares held by the Depositary to be so redeemed
      and the applicable redemption price, as set forth

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        -6-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    in
      the
      Articles Supplementary, which notice shall be accompanied by a certificate
      from
      the Company stating that such redemption of Stock is in accordance with the
      provisions of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Articles Supplementary.
      On the date of such redemption, provided that the Company shall then have paid
      or caused to be paid in full to the Depositary the redemption price of the
      Stock
      to be redeemed, plus an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon
      to the date fixed for redemption, in accordance with the provisions of the
      Articles Supplementary, the Depositary shall redeem the number of Depositary
      Shares representing such Stock. The Depositary shall mail notice of the
      Company’s redemption of Stock and the proposed simultaneous redemption of the
      number of Depositary Shares representing the Stock to be redeemed by first-class
      mail, postage prepaid, not less than 30 and not more than 60 days prior to
      the
      date fixed for redemption of such Stock and Depositary Shares (the “Redemption
      Date”) to the record holders of the Receipts evidencing the Depositary Shares to
      be so redeemed, at the address of such holders as they appear on the records
      of
      the Depositary; but neither failure to mail any such notice of redemption of
      Depositary Shares to one or more such holders nor any defect in any notice
      of
      redemption of Depositary Shares to one or more such holders shall affect the
      sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption as to the other holders. The
      Company will provide the Depositary with the information necessary for the
      Depositary to prepare such notice and each such notice shall state: (i) the
      Redemption Date; (ii) the number of Depositary Shares to be redeemed and, if
      fewer than all the Depositary Shares held by any such holder are to be redeemed,
      the number of such Depositary Shares held by such holder to be so redeemed;
      (iii) the redemption price per Depositary Share; (iv) the place or places where
      Receipts evidencing Depositary Shares are to be surrendered for payment of
      the
      redemption price; and (v) that dividends in respect of the Stock represented
      by
      the Depositary Shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue on such Redemption
      Date and will bear no interest. In case fewer than all the outstanding
      Depositary Shares are to be redeemed, the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed
      shall be determined pro rata or by lot in a manner required by any exchange
      upon
      which the Depositary Shares are listed or as otherwise determined by the Board
      of Directors.

     

    Notice
      having been mailed by the Depositary as aforesaid, from and after the Redemption
      Date (unless the Company shall have failed to provide the funds necessary to
      redeem the Stock evidenced by the Depositary Shares called for redemption)
      (i) dividends on the shares of Stock so called for redemption shall cease
      to accrue from and after such date, (ii) the Depositary Shares being redeemed
      from such proceeds shall be deemed no longer to be outstanding, (iii) all rights
      of the holders of Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares (except the right
      to receive the redemption price) shall, to the extent of such Depositary Shares,
      cease and terminate and (iv) upon surrender in accordance with such
      redemption; notice of the Receipts evidencing any such Depositary Shares called
      for redemption (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Depositary
      or
      applicable law shall so require), such Depositary Shares shall be redeemed
      by
      the Depositary at a redemption price per Depositary Share equal to the same
      fraction of the redemption price per share paid with respect to the shares
      of
      Stock as the fraction each Depositary Share represents of a share of Stock
      plus
      the same fraction of all money and other property, if any, represented by such
      Depositary Shares, including all amounts paid by the Company in respect of
      dividends which on the Redemption Date have accumulated on the shares of Stock
      to be so redeemed and have not theretofore been paid. Any funds deposited by
      the
      Company with the Depositary for any Depositary Shares that the holders thereof
      fail to redeem will, upon the written request of the Company, be returned to
      the
      Company after a period of five years from the date such funds are so
      deposited.

    If
      fewer
      than all of the Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt are called for
      redemption, the Depositary will deliver to the holder of such Receipt upon
      its
      surrender to the Depositary, together with the redemption payment, a new Receipt
      evidencing the Depositary Shares evidenced by such prior Receipt and not called
      for redemption; provided, however, that the Depositary shall not issue any
      Receipt evidencing a fractional Depositary Share.

     

    SECTION
      2.9. Stock
      Constituting Excess Stock.
      As
      provided in the Articles of Incorporation or Articles Supplementary, upon the
      happening of certain events, shares of Stock shall be deemed to automatically
      constitute Excess Stock. In the event of such a conversion, the Receipt
      representing the deposited Stock so converted shall no longer represent, to
      the
      extent of the shares so converted, such deposited Stock. Promptly upon its
      knowledge of the conversion of such deposited Stock into Excess Shares, the
      Company shall notify the Depositary of such conversion, the number of shares
      of
      deposited Stock so converted, and the identity of the holder of the Receipt
      so
      affected, whereupon the Depositary shall promptly notify the holder of such
      Receipt as to the foregoing information and the requirement for the holder
      to
      surrender such Receipt to the Depositary for cancellation of the number of
      Depositary Shares evidenced thereby equal to the deposited Stock constituting
      Excess Shares represented thereby.

     

    If
      fewer
      than all of the Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt are required to be
      surrendered for cancellation, the Depositary will deliver to the holder of
      such
      Receipt upon its surrender to the Depositary a new Receipt evidencing the
      Depositary Shares evidenced by such prior Receipt and not required to be
      surrendered for cancellation. Upon the conversion of the deposited Stock and
      cancellation of the Depositary Shares represented thereby, the Depositary will
      make appropriate adjustments in its records to reflect such conversion and
      cancellation (including the reduction of any fractional share of deposited
      Stock
      and the issuance of any Excess Shares).

      RECEIPTS AND THE COMPANY

     

    SECTION
      3.1. Filing
      Proofs, Certificates and Other Information.
      Any
      holder of a Receipt may be required from time to time to file such proof of
      residence, or other matters or other information, to execute such certificates
      and to make such representations and warranties as the Depositary or the Company
      may reasonably deem necessary or proper or otherwise reasonably request. Subject
      to applicable law, the Depositary or the Company may withhold the delivery,
      or
      delay the registration of transfer, redemption or exchange, of any Receipt
      or
      the withdrawal or conversion of the Stock represented by the Depositary Shares
      evidenced by any Receipt or the distribution of any dividend or other
      distribution or the sale of any rights or of the proceeds thereof until such
      proof or other information is filed or such certificates are executed or such
      representations and warranties are made.

     

    SECTION
      3.2. Payment
      of Taxes or Other Governmental Charges.
      Holders
      of Receipts shall be obligated to make payments to the Depositary of certain
      charges and expenses, as provided in Section 5.7 hereof. Subject to applicable
      law, registration of transfer of any Receipt or any withdrawal of Stock and
      all
      money or other property, if any, represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced
      by such Receipt may be refused until any such payment due is made, and
      any

    dividends,
      interest payments or other distributions may be withheld or any part of or
      all
      the Stock or other property represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced
      by
      such Receipt and not theretofore sold may be sold for the account of the holder
      thereof (after attempting by reasonable means to notify such holder prior to
      such sale), and such dividends, interest payments or other distributions or
      the
      proceeds of any such sale may be applied to any payment of such charges or
      expenses, the holder of such Receipt remaining liable for any
      deficiency.

     

    SECTION
      3.3. Warranty
      as to Stock.
      The
      Company hereby represents and warrants that the Stock, when issued, will be
      duly
      authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Such representation
      and warranty shall survive the deposit of the Stock and the issuance of
      Receipts.

    THE
      DEPOSITED SECURITIES; NOTICES

     

    SECTION
      4.1. Cash
      Distributions.
      Whenever the Depositary shall receive any cash dividend or other cash
      distribution on Stock, the Depositary shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2
      hereof, distribute to record holders of Receipts on the record date fixed
      pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof such amounts of such dividend or distribution
      as
      are, as nearly as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of
      Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts held by such holders; provided,
      however, that, in case the Company or the Depositary shall be required to
      withhold and shall withhold from any cash dividend or other cash distribution
      in
      respect of the Stock an amount on account of taxes or as otherwise required
      by
      law, regulation or court process, the amount made available for distribution
      or
      distributed in respect of Depositary Shares shall be reduced accordingly. In
      the
      event that the calculation of any such cash dividend or other cash distribution
      to be paid to any record holder on the aggregate number of Depositary Receipts
      held by such holder results in an amount which is a fraction of a cent, the
      amount the Depositary shall distribute to such record holder shall be rounded
      to
      the next highest whole cent if such fraction of a cent is equal to or greater
      than $.005; otherwise such fractional interest shall be disregarded; and, upon
      request of the Depositary, the Company shall pay the additional amount to the
      Depositary for distribution.

     

    SECTION
      4.2. Distributions
      Other than Cash, Rights, Preferences or Privileges.
      Whenever the Depositary shall receive any distribution other than cash, rights,
      preferences or privileges upon Stock, the Depositary shall, subject to Sections
      3.1 and 3.2 hereof, distribute to record holders of Receipts on the record
      date
      fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof such amounts of the securities or property
      received by it as are, as nearly as may be practicable, in proportion to the
      respective numbers of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts held by such
      holders, in any manner that the Depositary may deem equitable and practicable
      for accomplishing such distribution. If in the opinion of the Depositary such
      distribution cannot be made proportionately among such record holders, or if
      for
      any other reason (including any requirement that the Company or the Depositary
      withhold an amount on account of taxes) the Depositary deems (after consultation
      with the Company) such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may,
      with
      the approval of the Company, adopt such method as it deems equitable and
      practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale
      (at public or private sale) of the securities or property thus received, or
      any
      part thereof, at such place or places and upon such

    terms
      as
      it may deem equitable and appropriate. The net proceeds of any such sale shall,
      subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2 hereof, be distributed or made available for
      distribution, as the case may be, by the Depositary to record holders of
      Receipts as provided by Section 4.1 in the case of a distribution received
      in
      cash.

     

    SECTION
      4.3. Subscription
      Rights, Preferences or Privileges.
      If the
      Company shall at any time offer or cause to be offered to the persons in whose
      names Stock is recorded on the books of the Company any rights, preferences
      or
      privileges to subscribe for or to purchase any securities or any rights,
      preferences or privileges of any other nature, the
      offering of such
      rights, preferences or privileges shall in each such instance be communicated
      to the Depositary and thereafter
      made
      available by the Depositary to the record holders of Receipts in such manner
      as
      the Depositary may determine, either by the issue to such record holders of
      warrants representing such rights, preferences or privileges or by such other
      method as may be approved by the Depositary in its discretion with the approval
      of the Company; provided, however, that (i) if at the time of issue or offer
      of
      any such rights, preferences or privileges the Depositary determines that it
      is
      not lawful or (after consultation with the Company) not feasible to make such
      rights, preferences or privileges available to holders of Receipts by the issue
      of warrants or otherwise, or (ii) if and to the extent so instructed by holders
      of Receipts who do not desire to execute such rights, preferences or privileges,
      then CI, in its discretion (with approval of the Company, in any case where
      the
      Depositary has determined that it is not feasible to make such rights,
      preferences or privileges available), may, if applicable laws or the terms
      of
      such rights, preferences or privileges permit such transfer, sell such rights,
      preferences or privileges at public or private sale, at such place or places
      and
      upon such terms as it may deem proper. The net proceeds of any such sale shall,
      subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2 hereof, be distributed by CI to the record
      holders of Receipts entitled thereto as provided by Section 4.1 hereof in the
      case of a distribution received in cash.

     

    If
      registration under the Securities Act of the securities to which any rights,
      preferences or privileges relate is required in order for holders of Receipts
      to
      be offered or sold the securities to which such rights, preferences or
      privileges relate, the Company will file promptly a registration statement
      pursuant to the Securities Act with respect to such rights, preferences or
      privileges and securities and use its best efforts and take all steps available
      to it to cause such registration statement to become effective sufficiently
      in
      advance of the expiration of such rights, preferences or privileges to enable
      such holders to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges. In no event
      shall the Depositary make available to the holders of Receipts any right,
      preference or privilege to subscribe for or to purchase any securities unless
      and until it has received written notice from the Company that such registration
      statement shall have become effective, or that the offering and sale of such
      securities to such holders are exempt from registration under the provisions
      of
      the Securities Act and the Company shall have provided to the Depositary an
      opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary to such
      effect.

     

    If
      any
      other action under the laws of any jurisdiction or any governmental or
      administrative authorization, consent or permit is required in order for such
      rights, preferences or privileges to be made available to holders of Receipts,
      the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to take such action or obtain
      such authorization, consent or permit sufficiently in advance of the expiration
      of such rights, preferences or privileges to enable such holders to exercise
      such rights, preferences or privileges.

    SECTION
      4.4. Notice
      of
      Dividends, etc.; Fixing Record Date for Holders of Receipts.
      Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable
      or
      any distribution other than cash shall be made, or if rights, preferences or
      privileges shall at any time be offered, with respect to Stock, or whenever
      the
      Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting at which holders of Stock are
      entitled to vote or of which holders of Stock are entitled to notice, or
      whenever the Depositary and the Company shall decide it is appropriate, the
      Depositary shall in each such instance fix a record date (which shall be the
      same date as the record date fixed by the Company with respect to or otherwise
      in accordance with the terms of the Stock) for the determination of the holders
      of Receipts who shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution,
      rights, preferences or privileges or the net proceeds of the sale thereof,
      or to
      give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such meeting, or
      who
      shall be entitled to notice of such meeting or for any other appropriate
      reasons.

     

    SECTION
      4.5. Voting
      Rights.
      Upon
      receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of Stock are entitled
      to
      vote, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail to the
      record holders of Receipts a notice which shall contain (i) such information
      as
      is contained in such notice of meeting and (ii) a statement that the holders
      may, subject to any applicable restrictions, instruct the Depositary as to
      the
      exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of Stock represented
      by
      their respective Depositary Shares (including an express indication that
      instructions may be given to the Depositary to give a discretionary proxy to
      a
      person designated by the Company) and a brief statement as to the manner in
      which such instructions may be given. Upon the written request of the holders
      of
      Receipts on the relevant record date, the Depositary shall use its best efforts
      to vote or cause to be voted, in accordance with the instructions set forth
      in
      such requests, the maximum number of whole shares of Stock represented by the
      Depositary Shares evidenced by all Receipts as to which any particular voting
      instructions are received. The Company hereby agrees to take all action which
      may be deemed necessary by the Depositary in order to enable the Depositary
      to
      vote such Stock or cause such Stock to be voted. In the absence of specific
      instructions from the holder of a Receipt, the Depositary will not vote to
      the
      extent of the Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such
      Receipt.

     

    SECTION
      4.6. Changes
      Affecting Deposited Securities and Reclassifications, Recapitalizations,
      etc.

     

    Upon
      any
      change in par value or liquidation preference, split-up, combination or any
      other reclassification of the Stock, or upon any recapitalization,
      reorganization, merger or consolidation affecting the Company or to which it
      is
      a party, the Depositary may in its discretion with the approval (not to be
      unreasonably withheld) of, and shall upon the instructions of, the Company,
      and
      (in either case) in such manner as the Depositary may deem equitable, (i) make
      such adjustments in the fraction of an interest in one share of Stock
      represented by one Depositary Share as may be necessary (as certified by the
      Company) fully to reflect the effects of such change in par value or liquidation
      preference, split-up, combination or other reclassification of Stock, or of
      such
      recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation and (ii) treat any
      securities which shall be received by the Depositary in exchange for or upon
      conversion of or in respect of the Stock as new deposited securities so received
      in exchange for or upon conversion or in respect of such Stock. In any such
      case, the Depositary may in its discretion, with the approval of the Company,
      execute and deliver additional Receipts or may call for the surrender of all
      outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing
      such new deposited securities. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding,

      value
      or liquidation preference, split-up, combination or other reclassification
      of
      the Stock or any such recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation
      to surrender such Receipts to the Depositary with instructions to convert,
      exchange or surrender the Stock represented thereby only into or for, as the
      case may be, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and
      property and cash into which the Stock represented by such Receipts would have
      been converted or for which such Stock would have been exchanged or surrendered
      had such Receipt been surrendered immediately prior to the effective date of
      such transaction.

    SECTION
      5.1. Maintenance
      of Offices, Agencies and Transfer Books by the Depositary;
      Registrar.
      Upon
      execution of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall maintain at the
      Depositary’s Office facilities for the execution and delivery, registration and
      registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of Receipts, and at the offices
      of the Depositary’s Agents, if any, facilities for the delivery, registration of
      transfer, surrender and exchange of Receipts, all in accordance with the
      provisions of this Deposit Agreement, provided that, to the extent provisions
      of
      this Deposit Agreement regarding transfer or registrar functions of the
      Depositary conflict with the terms of any transfer agency agreement into which
      the Company and the Depositary may enter, the transfer agency agreement shall
      control.

     

    The
      Depositary shall keep books at the Depositary’s Office for the registration and
      registration of transfer of Receipts, which books during normal business hours
      shall be open for inspection by the record holders of Receipts subject to
      applicable laws; provided that any such holder requesting to exercise such
      right
      shall certify to the Depositary that such inspection shall be for a proper
      purpose reasonably related to such person’s interest as an owner of Depositary
      Shares evidenced by the Receipts.
      Books
      kept hereunder by the Depositary may be maintained in electronic
      form.

     

    The
      Depositary may close such books, at any time or from time to time, when deemed
      expedient by it in connection with the performance of its duties
      hereunder.

     

    The
      Depositary may, with the approval of the Company, appoint a Registrar for
      registration of the Receipts or the Depositary Shares evidenced thereby. If

      by
      such Depositary Shares shall be listed on

    one
      or
      more national securities exchanges, the Depositary will appoint a Registrar
      (acceptable to the Company) for registration of such Receipts or Depositary
      Shares in accordance with any requirements of such exchange. Such Registrar
      (which may be the Depositary if so permitted by the requirements of any such
      exchange) may be removed and a substitute registrar appointed by the Depositary
      upon the request or with the approval of the Company. If the Receipts, such
      Depositary Shares or such Stock is listed on one or more other stock exchanges,
      the Depositary will, at the request and at the expense of the Company, arrange
      such facilities for the delivery, registration, registration of transfer,
      surrender and exchange of such Receipts, such Depositary Shares or such Stock
      as
      may be required by law or applicable securities exchange
      regulation.

     

    The
      Depositary may from time to time appoint Depositary’s Agents to act in any
      respect for the Depositary for the purposes of this Deposit Agreement and may
      at
      any time appoint additional Depositary’s Agents and vary or terminate the
      appointment of such Depositary’s Agents. The Depositary will notify the Company
      of any such action.

      the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor the Registrar nor the Company
      shall incur any liability to any holder of any Receipt if by reason of any
      provision of any present or future law, or regulation thereunder, of the United
      States of America or of any other governmental authority or, in the case of
      the
      Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent or the Registrar, by reason of any provision,
      present or future, of the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of
      Incorporation or by reason of any act of God or war or other circumstance beyond
      the control of the relevant party, the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, the
      Registrar or the Company shall be prevented, delayed or forbidden from, or
      subjected to any penalty on account of, doing or performing any act or thing
      which the terms of this Deposit Agreement provide shall be done or performed;
      nor shall the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, the Registrar or the Company
      incur liability to any holder of a Receipt (i) by reason of any nonperformance
      or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act or thing which
      the
      terms of this Deposit Agreement shall provide shall or may be done or performed,
      or (ii) by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion
      provided for in this Deposit Agreement except, in the case of any such exercise
      or failure to exercise discretion not caused as aforesaid, if caused by the
      gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party charged with such exercise
      or failure to exercise.

     

    SECTION
      5.3. Obligation
      of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents, the Registrar and the
      Company.
      Neither
      the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor the Registrar nor the Company
      assumes any obligation or shall be subject to any liability under this Deposit
      Agreement or any Receipt to holders of Receipts other than for its gross
      negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.

     

    Neither
      the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor the Registrar nor the Company
      shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action,
      suit
      or other proceeding in respect of the Stock, the Depositary Shares or the
      Receipts which in its reasonable opinion may involve it in expense or liability
      unless indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against expense and liability
      be
      furnished as often as may be reasonably required.

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        -13-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    Neither
      the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor the Registrar nor the Company
      shall be liable for any action or any failure to act by it in reliance upon
      the
      written advice of legal counsel or accountants, or information from any person
      presenting Stock for deposit, any holder of a Receipt or any other person
      believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such information. The
      Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, the Registrar and the Company may each rely
      and shall each be protected in acting upon any written notice, request,
      direction or other document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to
      have
      been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

     

    In
      the
      event the Depositary shall receive conflicting claims, requests or instructions
      from any holders of Receipts, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other
      hand, the Depositary shall be entitled to act on such claims, requests or
      instructions received from the Company, and shall be entitled to the full
      indemnification set forth in Section 5.6 hereof fin connection with any action
      so take.

     

    The
      Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instruction
      to vote any of the shares of Stock or for the manner or effect of any such
      vote
      made, as long as any such action or inaction is in good faith. The Depositary
      will indemnify the Company and hold it harmless from any loss, liability or
      expense (including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself) which
      arises from its negligence, wilful misconduct or bad faith. The Depositary
      undertakes and any Registrar shall be required to undertake only such duties
      as
      specifically set forth herein and no implied covenants or obligations shall
      be
      read into this Deposit Agreement against the Depositary or Registrar. In no
      event shall the Depositary’s aggregate liability during the term of this Deposit
      Agreement with respect to, arising from, or arising in connection with this
      Deposit Agreement, or from all services provided or omitted to be provided
      under
      this Deposit Agreement, whether in contract, or in tort, or otherwise, exceed
      an
      amount equal to three (3) times the amounts paid by the Company to Depositary
      as
      fees and charges, but not including reimbursable expenses. The indemnification
      obligations of the Depositary set forth in this Section 5.3 hereof shall
      survive any termination of this Deposit Agreement and any succession of any
      Depositary. 

     

    The
      Depositary, its parent, affiliates or subsidiaries, the Depositary’s Agents and
      the Registrar may own, buy, sell and deal in any class of securities of the
      Company and its affiliates and in Receipts or Depositary Shares or become
      pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Company or its affiliates
      may be interested or contract with or lend money to any such person or otherwise
      act as fully or as freely as if it were not the Depositary, parent, affiliate
      or
      subsidiary or Depositary’s Agent or Registrar hereunder. The Depositary may also
      act as trustee, transfer agent or registrar of any of the securities of the
      Company and its affiliates.

     

    It
      is
      intended that neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor the
      Registrar, acting as the Depositary’s Agent or Registrar, as the case may be,
      shall be deemed to be an “issuer” of the securities under the federal securities
      laws or applicable state securities laws, it being expressly understood and
      agreed that the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and the Registrar are acting
      only in a ministerial capacity as Depositary or Registrar for the
      Stock.

     

    Neither
      the Depositary (or its officers, directors, employees or agents) nor any
      Depositary’s Agent nor the Registrar makes any representation or has any
      responsibility as to the validity of the registration statement pursuant to
      which the Depositary Shares are registered under the

    Securities
      Act, the Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts (except for its
      counter-signatures thereon) or any instruments referred to therein or herein,
      or
      as to the correctness of any statement made therein or herein.

     

    The
      Depositary assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the description
      that
      appears in the Receipts. Notwithstanding any other provision herein or in the
      Receipts, the Depositary makes no warranties or representations as to the
      validity or genuineness of any Stock at any time deposited with the Depositary
      hereunder or of the Depositary Shares, as to the validity or sufficiency of
      this
      Deposit Agreement, as to the value of the Depositary Shares or as to any right,
      title or interest of the record holders of Receipts in and to the Depositary
      Shares. The Depositary shall not be accountable for the use or application
      by
      the Company of the Depositary Shares or the Receipts or the proceeds
      thereof.

     

    The
      Depositary shall not be liable for any incidental, indirect, special or
      consequential damages of any nature whatsoever, including, but not limited
      to,
      loss of anticipated profits, occasioned by breach of any provisions of this
      Agreement even if apprised of the possibility of such damages.

     

    SECTION
      5.4. Resignation
      and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of Successor
      Depositary.
      The
      Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary hereunder by delivering notice
      of its election to do so to the Company, such resignation to take effect upon
      the appointment of a successor Depositary and its acceptance of such appointment
      as hereinafter provided.

     

    The
      Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by notice of such removal
      delivered to the Depositary, such removal to take effect upon the appointment
      of
      a successor Depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter
      provided.

     

    In
      case
      at any time the Depositary acting hereunder shall resign or be removed, the
      Company shall, within 60 days after the delivery of the notice of resignation
      or
      removal, as the case may be, appoint a successor Depositary, which shall be
      a
      bank or trust company having its principal office in the United States of
      America and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $150,000,000.
      If
      no successor Depositary shall have been so appointed and have accepted
      appointment within 60 days after delivery of such notice, the resigning or
      removed Depositary may at the expense of the Company petition any court of
      competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Depositary. Every
      successor Depositary shall execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the
      Company an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and
      thereupon such successor Depositary, without any further act or deed, shall
      become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of
      its
      predecessor and for all purposes shall be the Depositary under this Deposit
      Agreement, and such predecessor, upon payment of all sums due it and on the
      written request of the Company, shall execute and deliver an instrument
      transferring to such successor all rights and powers of such predecessor
      hereunder, shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all right, title and interest
      in the Stock and any moneys or property held hereunder to such successor, and
      shall deliver to such successor a list of the record holders of all outstanding
      Receipts and such records, books and other information in its possession
      relating thereto. Any successor Depositary shall promptly mail notice of its
      appointment to the record holders of Receipts.

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        -15-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    Any
      corporation into or with which the Depositary may be merged, consolidated or
      converted shall be the successor of such Depositary without the execution or
      filing of any document or any further act, and notice thereof shall not be
      required hereunder. Such successor Depositary may authenticate the Receipts
      in
      the name of the predecessor Depositary or in the name of the successor
      Depositary.

     

    SECTION
      5.5. Corporate
      Notices and Reports.
      The
      Company agrees that it will deliver to the Depositary, and the Depositary will,
      promptly after receipt thereof, transmit to the record holders of Receipts,
      in
      each case at the addresses recorded in the Depositary’s books, copies of all
      notices and reports (including without limitation financial statements) required
      by law or by the rules of any national securities exchange upon which the Stock,
      the Depositary Shares or the Receipts are listed, to be furnished to the record
      holders of Receipts. Such transmission will be at the Company’s expense and the
      Company will provide the Depositary with such number of copies of such documents
      as the Depositary may reasonably request.

     

    SECTION
      5.6. Indemnification
      by the Company.
      The
      Company shall indemnify the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and the Registrar
      against, and hold each of them harmless from, any loss, liability or expense
      (including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself) which may
      arise out of acts performed or omitted in connection with this Deposit Agreement
      and the Receipts by the Depositary, any Registrar or any of their respective
      agents (including any Depositary’s Agent), except for any liability arising out
      of gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the respective parts
      of
      any such person or persons, subject to the provisions of Section 5.3, above.
      The
      obligations of the Company set forth in this Section 5.6 hereof shall survive
      any termination of this Deposit Agreement or any succession of any Depositary
      or
      Depositary’s Agent.

     

    SECTION
      5.7. Charges
      and Expenses.
      The
      Company shall pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising
      solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. The Company shall
      pay
      charges of the Depositary in connection with the initial deposit of the Stock
      and the initial issuance of the Depositary Shares, all withdrawals of shares
      of
      the Stock by owners of Depositary Shares, and any redemption of the Stock at
      the
      option of the Company. All other transfer and other taxes and governmental
      charges shall be at the expense of holders of Depositary Shares. If, at the
      request of a holder of Receipts, the Depositary incurs charges or expenses
      for
      which it is not otherwise liable hereunder, such holder will be liable for
      such
      charges and expenses. All other charges and expenses of the Depositary and
      any
      Depositary’s Agent hereunder (including, in each case, reasonable fees and
      expenses of counsel) incident to the performance of their respective obligations
      hereunder will be paid upon consultation and agreement between the Depositary
      and the Company as to the amount and nature of such charges and expenses. The
      Depositary shall present its statement for charges and expenses to the Company
      at such intervals as the Company and the Depositary may agree.

     

    SECTION
      5.8. Tax
      Compliance.
      CSS
      and, where applicable, the Depositary, on its own behalf and on behalf of the
      Company, will comply with all applicable certification, information reporting
      and withholding (including “backup” withholding) requirements imposed by
      applicable tax laws, regulations or administrative practice with respect to
      (i)
      any payments made with respect to the Depositary Shares or (ii) the issuance,
      delivery, holding, transfer, redemption or exercise of rights under the
      Depositary Receipts or the Depositary Shares. Such

    compliance
      shall include, without limitation, the preparation and timely filing of required
      returns and the timely payment of all amounts required to be withheld to the
      appropriate taxing authority or its designated agent.

     

    The
      Depositary shall comply with any direction received from the Company with
      respect to the application of such requirements to particular payments or
      holders or in other particular circumstances, and may for purposes of this
      Deposit Agreement rely on any such direction in accordance with the provisions
      of Section 5.3 hereof.

     

    The
      Depositary shall maintain all appropriate records documenting compliance with
      such requirements, and shall make such records available on request to the
      Company or to its authorized representatives.

    AMENDMENT
      AND TERMINATION

     

    SECTION
      6.1. Amendment.
      The
      form of the Receipts and any provisions of this Deposit Agreement may at any
      time and from time to time be amended by agreement between the Company and
      the
      Depositary in any respect which they may deem necessary or desirable; provided,
      however, that no such amendment (other than any change in the fees) which shall
      materially adversely alter the rights of the holders of Receipts shall be
      effective unless such amendment shall have been approved by the holders of
      at
      least a majority of the Depositary Shares then outstanding. Every holder of
      an
      outstanding Receipt at the time any such amendment becomes effective shall
      be
      deemed, by continuing to hold such Receipt, to be bound by the Deposit Agreement
      as amended thereby. Subject to Section 2.9 hereof, notwithstanding the
      foregoing, in no event may any amendment impair the right of any holder of
      any
      Depositary Shares, upon surrender of the Receipts evidencing such Depositary
      Shares and subject to any conditions specified in this Deposit Agreement, to
      receive shares of Stock and any money or other property, if any, represented
      thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable
      law.

     

    SECTION
      6.2. Termination.
      This
      Deposit Agreement may be terminated by the Company (provided (i) the consent
      of
      holders of a majority of the Depositary Shares has been obtained (such consent
      not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) or (ii) termination
      is
      necessary to preserve the Company’s status as a real estate investment trust),
      at any time upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to the Depositary,
      in which case, on a date that is not later than 30 days after the date of such
      notice, the Depositary shall deliver or make available for delivery to holders
      of Depositary Shares, upon surrender of the Receipts evidencing such Depositary
      Shares, such number of whole or fractional shares of Stock as are represented
      by
      such Depositary Shares. This Deposit Agreement will automatically terminate
      after (i) all outstanding Depositary Shares have been redeemed pursuant to
      Section 2.8 hereof or (ii) there shall have been made a final distribution
      in respect of the Stock in connection with any liquidation, dissolution or
      winding up of the Company and such distribution shall have been distributed
      to
      the holders of Depositary Receipts pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2 hereof, as
      applicable.

     

    In
      the
      event that the transfer agency relationship in effect between the Company and
      the Depositary terminates, the Depositary will be deemed to resign automatically
      with acceptance of

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        -17-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    such
      resignation by the Company on the effective date of such termination and any
      required notice will be sent by the Company. 

     

    Upon
      the
      termination of this Deposit Agreement, the Company shall be discharged from
      all
      obligations under this Deposit Agreement except for its obligations to the
      Depositary, the Registrar and any Depositary’s Agent under Sections 5.6 and 5.7
      hereof.
