         the power, duty and authority to act on behalf of the Trust with
         respect to the following matters:

                           (A) the receipt and holding of legal title of the
                  Notes;

                           (B) the establishment of the Payment Account;



                                       12
<PAGE>

                           (C) the collection of interest, principal and any
                  other payments made in respect of the Notes and the holding of
                  such amounts in the Payment Account;

                           (D) the distribution through the Paying Agent of
                  amounts distributable to the Holders in respect of the Trust
                  Securities;

                           (E) the exercise of all of the rights, powers and
                  privileges of a holder of the Notes in accordance with the
                  terms of this Trust Agreement;

                           (F) the sending of notices of default and other
                  information regarding the Trust Securities and the Notes to
                  the Holders in accordance with this Trust Agreement;

                           (G) the distribution of the Trust Property in
                  accordance with the terms of this Trust Agreement;

                           (H) to the extent provided in this Trust Agreement,
                  the winding up of the affairs of and liquidation of the Trust
                  and the preparation, execution and filing of the certificate
                  of cancellation of the Trust with the Secretary of State of
                  the State of Delaware; and

                           (I) the taking of any action incidental to the
                  foregoing as the Property Trustee may from time to time
                  determine is necessary or advisable to give effect to the
                  terms of this Trust Agreement and protect and conserve the
                  Trust Property for the benefit of the Holders (without
                  consideration of the effect of any such action on any
                  particular Holder).

         (b) In connection with the issue and sale of the Preferred Securities,
the Depositor shall have the right and responsibility to assist the Trust with
respect to, or effect on behalf of the Trust, the following (and any actions
taken by the Depositor in furtherance of the following prior to the date of this
Trust Agreement are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects):

                  (i) the negotiation of the terms of, and the execution and
         delivery of, the Purchase Agreement providing for the sale of the
         Preferred Securities in one or more transactions exempt from
         registration under the Securities Act, and in compliance with
         applicable state securities or blue sky laws; and

                  (ii) the taking of any other actions necessary or desirable to
         carry out any of the foregoing activities.

         (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative
Trustees are authorized and directed to conduct the affairs of the Trust and
authorized to operate the Trust so that the Trust will not be taxable as a
corporation or classified as other than a grantor trust for United States
federal income tax purposes, so that the Notes will be treated as indebtedness
of the Depositor for United States federal income tax purposes and so that the
Trust will not be deemed to be an "investment company" required to be registered
under the Investment Company Act. In this connection, each Administrative


                                       13
<PAGE>

Trustee is authorized to take any action, not inconsistent with applicable law,
the Certificate of Trust or this Trust Agreement, that such Administrative
Trustee determines in his or her discretion to be necessary or desirable for
such purposes, as long as such action does not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of the Holders of the Outstanding Preferred Securities. In
no event shall the Administrative Trustees be liable to the Trust or the Holders
for any failure to comply with this SECTION 2.5 to the extent that such failure
results solely from a change in law or regulation or in the interpretation
thereof.

         (d) Any action taken by a Trustee in accordance with its powers shall
constitute the act of and serve to bind the Trust. In dealing with any Trustee
acting on behalf of the Trust, no Person shall be required to inquire into the
authority of such Trustee to bind the Trust. Persons dealing with the Trust are
entitled to rely conclusively on the power and authority of any Trustee as set
forth in this Trust Agreement.

         SECTION 2.6. ASSETS OF TRUST.

         The assets of the Trust shall consist of the Trust Property.

         SECTION 2.7. TITLE TO TRUST PROPERTY.

         (a) Legal title to all Trust Property shall be vested at all times in
the Property Trustee and shall be held and administered by the Property Trustee
in trust for the benefit of the Trust and the Holders in accordance with this
Trust Agreement.

         (b) The Holders shall not have any right or title to the Trust Property
other than the undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Trust
conferred by their Trust Securities and they shall have no right to call for any
partition or division of property, profits or rights of the Trust except as
described below. The Trust Securities shall be personal property giving only the
rights specifically set forth therein and in this Trust Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE III.

                         Payment Account; Paying Agents

         SECTION 3.1. PAYMENT ACCOUNT.

         (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Property Trustee shall
establish the Payment Account. The Property Trustee and the Paying Agent shall
have exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal with respect to the Payment
Account for the purpose of making deposits in and withdrawals from the Payment
Account in accordance with this Trust Agreement. All monies and other property
deposited or held from time to time in the Payment Account shall be held by the
Property Trustee in the Payment Account for the exclusive benefit of the Holders
and for Distribution as herein provided.

         (b) The Property Trustee shall deposit in the Payment Account, promptly
upon receipt, all payments of principal of or interest on, and any other
payments with respect to, the Notes. Amounts held in the Payment Account shall
not be invested by the Property Trustee pending distribution thereof.

         SECTION 3.2. APPOINTMENT OF PAYING AGENTS.

         The Paying Agent shall initially be the Property Trustee. The Paying
Agent shall make Distributions to Holders from the Payment Account and shall
report the amounts of such Distributions to the Property Trustee and the
Administrative Trustees. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to
withdraw funds from the Payment Account solely for the purpose of making the
Distributions referred to above. The Administrative Trustees may revoke such
power and remove the Paying Agent in their sole discretion. Any Person acting as
Paying Agent shall be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon thirty (30) days'
written notice to the Administrative Trustees and the Property Trustee. If the
Property Trustee shall no longer be the Paying Agent or a successor Paying Agent
shall resign or its authority to act be revoked, the Administrative Trustees
shall appoint a successor (which shall be a bank or trust company) to act as
Paying Agent. Such successor Paying Agent appointed by the Administrative
Trustees shall execute and deliver to the Trustees an instrument in which such
successor Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustees that as Paying Agent, such
successor Paying Agent will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the
Holders in trust for the benefit of the Holders entitled thereto until such sums
shall be paid to such Holders. The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds
to the Property Trustee and upon removal of a Paying Agent such Paying Agent
shall also return all funds in its possession to the Property Trustee. The
provisions of ARTICLE VIII shall apply to the Property Trustee also in its role
as Paying Agent, for so long as the Property Trustee shall act as Paying Agent
and, to the extent applicable, to any other Paying Agent appointed hereunder.
Any reference in this Trust Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any
co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

                                  ARTICLE IV.

                            Distributions; Redemption

         SECTION 4.1. DISTRIBUTIONS.

         (a) The Trust Securities represent undivided beneficial interests in
the Trust Property, and Distributions (including any Additional Interest
Amounts) will be made on the Trust Securities at the rate and on the dates that
payments of interest (including any Additional Interest) are made on the Notes.
Accordingly:

                  (i) Distributions on the Trust Securities shall be cumulative,
         and shall accumulate whether or not there are funds of the Trust
         available for the payment of Distributions. Distributions shall
         accumulate from December 10, 2002 and, except as provided in clause
         (ii) below, shall be payable quarterly in arrears on December 30, March
         30, June 30 and September 30 of each year, commencing on March 30,
         2003. If any date on which a Distribution is otherwise payable on the
         Trust Securities is not a Business Day, then the payment of such
         Distribution shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day (and no
         interest shall accrue in respect of the amounts whose payment is so
         delayed for the period from and after each such date until the next
         succeeding Business Day), except that, if such Business Day falls in
         the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the



                                       15
<PAGE>

         immediately preceding Business Day, in each case, with the same force
         and effect as if made on such date (each date on which Distributions
         are payable in accordance with this SECTION 4.1(A)(I), a "DISTRIBUTION
         DATE");

                  (ii) in the event (and to the extent) that the Depositor
         exercises its right under the Indenture to defer the payment of
         interest on the Notes, Distributions on the Trust Securities shall be
         deferred. Under the Indenture, so long as no Note Event of Default has
         occurred and is continuing, the Depositor shall have the right, at any
         time and from time to time during the term of the Notes, to defer the
         payment of interest on the Notes for a period of up to twenty (20)
         consecutive quarterly interest payment periods (each such extended
         interest payment period, an "Extension Period"), during which Extension
         Period no interest on the Notes shall be due and payable (except any
         Additional Tax Sums that may be due and payable). No interest on the
         Notes shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except at
         the end thereof, but each installment of interest that would otherwise
         have been due and payable during such Extension Period shall bear
         Additional Interest (to the extent payment of such interest would be
         legally enforceable) at a variable rate, reset quarterly, equal to
         LIBOR plus 3.35% per annum; PROVIDED, THAT the applicable interest rate
         shall not exceed 12% through the Interest Payment Date in December
         2007, compounded quarterly, from the dates on which amounts would have
         otherwise been due and payable until paid or until funds for the
         payment thereof have been made available for payment. If Distributions
         are deferred, the deferred Distributions (including Additional Interest
         Amounts) shall be paid on the date that the related Extension Period
         terminates, to Holders of the Trust Securities as they appear on the
         books and records of the Trust on the record date immediately preceding
         such termination date.

                  (iii) Distributions shall accumulate in respect of the Trust
         Securities at a variable rate, reset quarterly, equal to LIBOR plus
         3.35% per annum of the Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities (such
         rate being the rate of interest payable on the Notes); PROVIDED, THAT
         the applicable interest rate shall not exceed 12% through the Interest
         Payment Date in December 2007. LIBOR shall be determined by the
         Calculation Agent in accordance with SCHEDULE A. The amount of
         Distributions payable for any period less than a full Distribution
         period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual
         number of days elapsed in the relevant Distribution period. The amount
         of Distributions payable for any period shall include any Additional
         Interest Amounts in respect of such period; and

                  (iv) Distributions on the Trust Securities shall be made by
         the Paying Agent from the Payment Account and shall be payable on each
         Distribution Date only to the extent that the Trust has funds then on
         hand and available in the Payment Account for the payment of such
         Distributions.

         (b) Distributions on the Trust Securities with respect to a
Distribution Date shall be payable to the Holders thereof as they appear on the
Securities Register for the Trust Securities at the close of business on the
relevant record date, which shall be at the close of business on the fifteenth
day (whether or not a Business Day) preceding the relevant Distribution Date.
Distributions payable on any Trust Securities that are not punctually paid on
any Distribution Date as a result of the Depositor having failed to make an


                                       16
<PAGE>


interest payment under the Notes will cease to be payable to the Person in whose
name such Trust Securities are registered on the relevant record date, and such
defaulted Distributions and any Additional Interest Amounts will instead be
payable to the Person in whose name such Trust Securities are registered on the
special record date, or other specified date for determining Holders entitled to
such defaulted Distribution and Additional Interest Amount, established in the
same manner, and on the same date, as such is established with respect to the
Notes under the Indenture.

         SECTION 4.2. REDEMPTION.

         (a) On each Note Redemption Date and on the stated maturity (or any
date of principal repayment upon early maturity) of the Notes and on each other
date on (or in respect of) which any principal on the Notes is repaid, the Trust
will be required to redeem a Like Amount of Trust Securities at the Redemption
Price.

         (b) Notice of redemption shall be given by the Property Trustee by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than thirty (30) nor more
than sixty (60) days prior to the Redemption Date to each Holder of Trust
Securities to be redeemed, at such Holder's address appearing in the Securities
Register. All notices of redemption shall state:

                  (i) the Redemption Date;

                  (ii) the Redemption Price or, if the Redemption Price cannot
         be calculated prior to the time the notice is required to be sent, the
         estimate of the Redemption Price provided pursuant to the Indenture, as
         calculated by the Depositor, together with a statement that it is an
         estimate and that the actual Redemption Price will be calculated by the
         Calculation Agent on the fifth Business Day prior to the Redemption
         Date (and if an estimate is provided, a further notice shall be sent of
         the actual Redemption Price on the date that such Redemption Price is
         calculated);

                  (iii) if less than all the Outstanding Trust Securities are to
         be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial
         redemption, the respective amounts) and Liquidation Amounts of the
         particular Trust Securities to be redeemed;

                  (iv) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will
         become due and payable upon each such Trust Security, or portion
         thereof, to be redeemed and that Distributions thereon will cease to
         accumulate on such Trust Security or such portion, as the case may be,
         on and after said date, except as provided in SECTION 4.2(D);

                  (v) the place or places where the Trust Securities are to be
         surrendered for the payment of the Redemption Price; and

                  (vi) such other provisions as the Property Trustee deems
         relevant.

         (c) The Trust Securities (or portion thereof) redeemed on each
Redemption Date shall be redeemed at the Redemption Price with the proceeds from
the contemporaneous redemption or payment at maturity of Notes. Redemptions of
the Trust Securities (or portion thereof) shall be made and the Redemption Price
shall be payable on each Redemption Date only to the extent that the Trust has
funds then on hand and available in the Payment Account for the payment of such
Redemption Price. Under the Indenture, the Notes may be redeemed by the



                                       17
<PAGE>

Depositor on any Interest Payment Date, at the Depositor's option, on or after
December 30, 2007, in whole or in part, from time to time at a redemption price
equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the principal amount thereof, together,
in the case of any such redemption, with accrued interest, including any
Additional Interest, to but excluding the date fixed for redemption (the
"INDENTURE REDEMPTION PRICE"); PROVIDED, that the Depositor shall have received
the prior approval of the Office of Thrift Supervision if then required. The
Notes may also be redeemed by the Depositor, at its option, in whole but not in
part, upon the occurrence of a Capital Disqualification Event, an Investment
Company Event or a Tax Event at the Indenture Redemption Price.

         (d) If the Property Trustee gives a notice of redemption in respect of
any Preferred Securities, then by 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on the
Redemption Date, the Depositor shall deposit sufficient funds with the Property
Trustee to pay the Redemption Price. If such deposit has been made by such time,
then by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Redemption Date, the Property
Trustee will, with respect to Book-Entry Preferred Securities, irrevocably
deposit with the Depositary for such Book-Entry Preferred Securities, to the
extent available therefor, funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption
Price and will give such Depositary irrevocable instructions and authority to
pay the Redemption Price to the Holders of the Preferred Securities. With
respect to Preferred Securities that are not Book-Entry Preferred Securities,
the Property Trustee will irrevocably deposit with the Paying Agent, to the
extent available therefor, funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption
Price and will give the Paying Agent irrevocable instructions and authority to
pay the Redemption Price to the Holders of the Preferred Securities upon
surrender of their Preferred Securities Certificates. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Distributions payable on or prior to the Redemption Date for any
Trust Securities (or portion thereof) called for redemption shall be payable to
the Holders of such Trust Securities as they appear on the Securities Register
on the relevant record dates for the related Distribution Dates. If notice of
redemption shall have been given and funds deposited as required, then upon the
date of such deposit, all rights of Holders holding Trust Securities (or portion
thereof) so called for redemption will cease, except the right of such Holders
to receive the Redemption Price and any Distribution payable in respect of the
Trust Securities on or prior to the Redemption Date, but without interest, and,
in the case of a partial redemption, the right of such Holders to receive a new
Trust Security or Securities of authorized denominations, in aggregate
Liquidation Amount equal to the unredeemed portion of such Trust Security or
Securities, and such Securities (or portion thereof) called for redemption will
cease to be Outstanding. In the event that any date on which any Redemption
Price is payable is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price
payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding Business Day (and no
interest shall accrue in respect of the amounts whose payment is so delayed for
the period from and after each such date until the next succeeding Business
Day), except that, if such Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar
year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in
each case, with the same force and effect as if made on such date. In the event
that payment of the Redemption Price in respect of any Trust Securities (or
portion thereof) called for redemption is improperly withheld or refused and not
paid either by the Trust or by the Depositor pursuant to the Guarantee
Agreement, Distributions on such Trust Securities(or portion thereof) will



                                       18
<PAGE>

continue to accumulate, as set forth in SECTION 4.1, from the Redemption Date
originally established by the Trust for such Trust Securities(or portion
thereof) to the date such Redemption Price is actually paid, in which case the
actual payment date will be the date fixed for redemption for purposes of
calculating the Redemption Price.

         (e) Subject to SECTION 4.3(a), if less than all the Outstanding Trust
Securities are to be redeemed on a Redemption Date, then the aggregate
Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities to be redeemed shall be allocated PRO
RATA to the Common Securities and the Preferred Securities based upon the
relative aggregate Liquidation Amounts of the Common Securities and the
Preferred Securities. The Preferred Securities to be redeemed shall be redeemed
on a PRO RATA basis based upon their respective Liquidation Amounts not more
than sixty (60) days prior to the Redemption Date by the Property Trustee from
the Outstanding Preferred Securities not previously called for redemption;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that with respect to Holders that would be required to hold
less than one hundred (100) but more than zero (0) Trust Securities as a result
of such redemption, the Trust shall redeem Trust Securities of each such Holder
so that after such redemption such Holder shall hold either one hundred (100)
Trust Securities or such Holder no longer holds any Trust Securities, and shall
use such method (including, without limitation, by lot) as the Trust shall deem
fair and appropriate; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that so long as the Preferred
Securities are Book-Entry Preferred Securities, such selection shall be made in
accordance with the Applicable Depositary Procedures for the Preferred
Securities by such Depositary. The Property Trustee shall promptly notify the
Securities Registrar in writing of the Preferred Securities (or portion thereof)
selected for redemption and, in the case of any Preferred Securities selected
for partial redemption, the Liquidation Amount thereof to be redeemed. For all
purposes of this Trust Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, all
provisions relating to the redemption of Preferred Securities shall relate, in
the case of any Preferred Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to
the portion of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities that has
been or is to be redeemed.

         (f) The Trust in issuing the Trust Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers
(if then generally in use), and, if so, the Property Trustee shall indicate the
"CUSIP" numbers of the Trust Securities in notices of redemption and related
materials as a convenience to Holders; PROVIDED, that any such notice may state
that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as
printed on the Trust Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption and
related materials.

         SECTION 4.3. SUBORDINATION OF COMMON SECURITIES.

         (a) Payment of Distributions (including any Additional Interest
Amounts) on, the Redemption Price of and the Liquidation Distribution in respect
of, the Trust Securities, as applicable, shall be made, PRO RATA among the
Common Securities and the Preferred Securities based on the Liquidation Amount
of the respective Trust Securities; PROVIDED, that if on any Distribution Date,
Redemption Date or Liquidation Date an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, no payment of any Distribution (including any Additional Interest
Amounts) on, Redemption Price of or Liquidation Distribution in respect of, any
Common Security, and no other payment on account of the redemption, liquidation
or other acquisition of Common Securities, shall be made unless payment in full
in cash of all accumulated and unpaid Distributions (including any Additional
Interest Amounts) on all Outstanding Preferred Securities for all Distribution



                                       19
<PAGE>

periods terminating on or prior thereto, or in the case of payment of the
Redemption Price the full amount of such Redemption Price on all Outstanding
Preferred Securities then called for redemption, or in the case of payment of
the Liquidation Distribution the full amount of such Liquidation Distribution on
all Outstanding Preferred Securities, shall have been made or provided for, and
all funds immediately available to the Property Trustee shall first be applied
to the payment in full in cash of all Distributions (including any Additional
Interest Amounts) on, or the Redemption Price of or the Liquidation Distribution
in respect of, the Preferred Securities then due and payable.

         (b) In the case of the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Holders
of the Common Securities shall have no right to act with respect to any such
Event of Default under this Trust Agreement until all such Events of Default
with respect to the Preferred Securities have been cured, waived or otherwise
eliminated. Until all such Events of Default under this Trust Agreement with
respect to the Preferred Securities have been so cured, waived or otherwise
eliminated, the Property Trustee shall act solely on behalf of the Holders of
the Preferred Securities and not on behalf of the Holders of the Common
Securities, and only the Holders of all the Preferred Securities will have the
right to direct the Property Trustee to act on their behalf.

         SECTION 4.4. PAYMENT PROCEDURES.

         Payments of Distributions (including any Additional Interest Amounts),
the Redemption Price, Liquidation Amount or any other amounts in respect of the
Preferred Securities shall be made by wire transfer at such place and to such
account at a banking institution in the United States as may be designated in
writing at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date for payment by the
Person entitled thereto unless proper written transfer instructions have not
been received by the relevant record date, in which case such payments shall be
made by check mailed to the address of such Person as such address shall appear
in the Securities Register. If any Preferred Securities are held by a
Depositary, such Distributions thereon shall be made to the Depositary in
immediately available funds. Payments in respect of the Common Securities shall
be made in such manner as shall be mutually agreed between the Property Trustee
and the Holder of all the Common Securities.

         SECTION 4.5. WITHHOLDING TAX.

         The Trust and the Administrative Trustees shall comply with all
withholding and backup withholding tax requirements under United States federal,
state and local law. The Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust shall
request, and the Holders shall provide to the Trust, such forms or certificates
as are necessary to establish an exemption from withholding and backup
withholding tax with respect to each Holder and any representations and forms as
shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Trustees on behalf of the
Trust to assist it in determining the extent of, and in fulfilling, its
withholding and backup withholding tax obligations. The Administrative Trustees
shall file required forms with applicable jurisdictions and, unless an exemption
from withholding and backup withholding tax is properly established by a Holder,
shall remit amounts withheld with respect to the Holder to applicable
jurisdictions. To the extent that the Trust is required to withhold and pay over
any amounts to any jurisdiction with respect to Distributions or allocations to
any Holder, the amount withheld shall be deemed to be a Distribution in the
amount of the withholding to the Holder. In the event of any claimed



                                       20
<PAGE>

overwithholding, Holders shall be limited to an action against the applicable
jurisdiction. If the amount required to be withheld was not withheld from actual
Distributions made, the Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust may
reduce subsequent Distributions by the amount of such required withholding.

         SECTION 4.6. TAX RETURNS AND OTHER REPORTS.

         (a) The Administrative Trustees shall prepare (or cause to be prepared)
at the principal office of the Trust in the United States, as defined for
purposes of Treasury regulations section 301.7701-7, at the Depositor's expense,
and file, all United States federal, state and local tax and information returns
and reports required to be filed by or in respect of the Trust. The
Administrative Trustees shall prepare at the principal office of the Trust in
the United States, as defined for purposes of Treasury regulations section
301.7701-7, and furnish (or cause to be prepared and furnished), by January 31
in each taxable year of the Trust to each Holder all Internal Revenue Service
forms and returns required to be provided by the Trust. The Administrative
Trustees shall provide the Depositor and the Property Trustee with a copy of all
such returns and reports promptly after such filing or furnishing.

         (b) So long as the Property Trustee is the Holder of the Notes, the
Administrative Trustees will cause the Depositor's reports on Form H-(b)11 to be
delivered to the Property Trustee promptly following their filing with the
Office of Thrift Supervision.

         SECTION 4.7. PAYMENT OF TAXES, DUTIES, ETC. OF THE TRUST.

         Upon receipt under the Notes of Additional Tax Sums and upon the
written direction of the Administrative Trustees, the Property Trustee shall
promptly pay, solely out of monies on deposit pursuant to this Trust Agreement,
any Additional Taxes imposed on the Trust by the United States or any other
taxing authority.

         SECTION 4.8. PAYMENTS UNDER INDENTURE OR PURSUANT TO DIRECT ACTIONS.

         Any amount payable hereunder to any Holder of Preferred Securities
shall be reduced by the amount of any corresponding payment such Holder (or any
Owner with respect thereto) has directly received pursuant to Section 5.8 of the
Indenture or SECTION 6.10(B) of this Trust Agreement.

         SECTION 4.9. EXCHANGES.

         (a) If at any time the Depositor or any of its Affiliates (in either
case, a "DEPOSITOR AFFILIATE") is the Owner or Holder of any Preferred
Securities, such Depositor Affiliate shall have the right to deliver to the
Property Trustee all or such portion of its Preferred Securities as it elects
and receive, in exchange therefor, a Like Amount of Notes. Such election (i)
shall be exercisable effective on any Distribution Date by such Depositor
Affiliate delivering to the Property Trustee a written notice of such election
specifying the Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities with respect to which
such election is being made and the Distribution Date on which such exchange
shall occur, which Distribution Date shall be not less than ten (10) Business
Days after the date of receipt by the Property Trustee of such election notice
and (ii) shall be conditioned upon such Depositor Affiliate having delivered or
caused to be delivered to the Property Trustee or its designee the Preferred



                                       21
<PAGE>

Securities that are the subject of such election by 10:00 A.M. New York time, on
the Distribution Date on which such exchange is to occur. After the exchange,
such Preferred Securities will be canceled and will no longer be deemed to be
Outstanding and all rights of the Depositor Affiliate with respect to such
Preferred Securities will cease.

         (b) In the case of an exchange described in SECTION 4.9(A), the
Property Trustee on behalf of the Trust will, on the date of such exchange,
exchange Notes having a principal amount equal to a proportional amount of the
aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Outstanding Common Securities, based on the
ratio of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities exchanged
pursuant to SECTION 4.9(A) divided by the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the
Preferred Securities Outstanding immediately prior to such exchange, for such
proportional amount of Common Securities held by the Depositor (which
contemporaneously shall be canceled and no longer be deemed to be Outstanding);
PROVIDED, that the Depositor delivers or causes to be delivered to the Property
Trustee or its designee the required amount of Common Securities to be exchanged
by 10:00 A.M. New York time, on the Distribution Date on which such exchange is
to occur.

         SECTION 4.10. CALCULATION AGENT.

         (a) The Property Trustee shall initially, and for so long as it holds
any of the Notes, be the Calculation Agent for purposes of determining LIBOR for
each Distribution Date. The Calculation Agent may be removed by the
Administrative Trustees at any time. If the Calculation Agent is unable or
unwilling to act as such or is removed by the Administrative Trustees, the
Administrative Trustees will promptly appoint as a replacement Calculation Agent
the London office of a leading bank which is engaged in transactions in
three-month Eurodollar deposits in the international Eurodollar market and which
does not control or is not controlled by or under common control with the
Administrative Trustee or its Affiliates. The Calculation Agent may not resign
its duties without a successor having been duly appointed.

         (b) The Calculation Agent shall be required to agree that, as soon as
possible after 11:00 a.m. (London time) on each LIBOR Determination Date, but in
no event later than 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the Business Day immediately
following each LIBOR Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will calculate
the interest rate (rounded to the nearest cent, with half a cent being rounded
upwards) for the related Distribution Date, and will communicate such rate and
amount to the Depositor, Trustee, each Paying Agent and the Depositary. The
Calculation Agent will also specify to the Administrative Trustee the quotations
upon which the foregoing rates and amounts are based and, in any event, the
Calculation Agent shall notify the Administrative Trustee before 5:00 p.m.
(London time) on each LIBOR Determination Date that either: (i) it has
determined or is in the process of determining the foregoing rates and amounts
or (ii) it has not determined and is not in the process of determining the
foregoing rates and amounts, together with its reasons therefor. The Calculation
Agent's determination of the foregoing rates and amounts for any Distribution
Date will (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding upon all
parties. For the sole purpose of calculating the interest rate for the Trust
Securities, "Business Day" shall be defined as any day on which dealings in
deposits in Dollars are transacted in the London interbank market.

the related statements of income or loss.

         (c) The Trust shall maintain one or more bank accounts in the United
States, as defined for purposes of Treasury Regulations section 301.7701-7, in
the name and for the sole benefit of the Trust; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that all
payments of funds in respect of the Notes held by the Property Trustee shall be
made directly to the Payment Account and no other funds of the Trust shall be
deposited in the Payment Account. The sole signatories for such accounts
(including the Payment Account) shall be designated by the Property Trustee.

                                   Securities

         SECTION 5.1. INITIAL OWNERSHIP.

         Upon the creation of the Trust and the contribution by the Depositor
referred to in SECTION 2.3 and until the issuance of the Trust Securities, and

         On the Closing Date, an Administrative Trustee, on behalf of the Trust,
shall execute and deliver to the Depositor Common Securities Certificates,

                                       23

Contemporaneously therewith and with the sale by the Trust to the Holders of an
aggregate of Fifteen Thousand (15,000) Preferred Securities having an aggregate
Liquidation Amount of Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000), an Administrative
Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall subscribe for and purchase from the

of the Trust and having an aggregate principal amount equal to Fifteen Million
Four Hundred and Sixty Four Thousand Dollars ($15,464,000), and, in satisfaction
of the purchase price for such Notes, the Property Trustee, on behalf of the
Trust, shall deliver to the Depositor the sum of Fifteen Million and Fourteen
Thousand Dollars ($15,014,000) (being the aggregate amount paid by the Holders
for the Preferred Securities, net of the discount, and the amount paid by the
Depositor for the Common Securities).

         SECTION 5.4. THE SECURITIES CERTIFICATES.

         (a) The Preferred Securities Certificates shall be issued in minimum
denominations of $100,000 Liquidation Amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in
excess thereof, and the Common Securities Certificates shall be issued in
minimum denominations of $10,000 Liquidation Amount and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof. The Securities Certificates shall be executed on
behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of at least one
Administrative Trustee. Securities Certificates bearing the signatures of
individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed,
authorized to sign such Securities Certificates on behalf of the Trust shall be
validly issued and entitled to the benefits of this Trust Agreement,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so
authorized prior to the delivery of such Securities Certificates or did not have
such authority at the date of delivery of such Securities Certificates.

         (b) On the Closing Date, upon the written order of an authorized
officer of the Depositor, the Administrative Trustees shall cause Securities
Certificates to be executed on behalf of the Trust and delivered, without
further corporate action by the Depositor, in authorized denominations.

         (c) The Preferred Securities issued to QIBs shall be, except as
provided in SECTION 5.6, Book-Entry Preferred Securities issued in the form of
one or more Global Preferred Securities registered in the name of the
Depositary, or its nominee and deposited with the Depositary or a custodian for
the Depositary for credit by the Depositary to the respective accounts of the
Depositary Participants thereof (or such other accounts as they may direct). The
Preferred Securities issued to a Person other than a QIB shall be issued in the
form of Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates.

         (d) A Preferred Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the
manual signature of an Authorized Officer of the Property Trustee. Such
signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Preferred Security has been
authenticated under this Trust Agreement. Upon written order of the Trust signed
by one Administrative Trustee, the Property Trustee shall authenticate the
Preferred Securities for original issue. The Property Trustee may appoint an



                                       24
<PAGE>

authenticating agent that is a U.S. Person acceptable to the Trust to
authenticate the Preferred Securities. A Common Security need not be so
authenticated and shall be valid upon execution by one or more Administrative
Trustees. The form of this certificate of authentication can be found in SECTION
5.13.

         SECTION 5.5. RIGHTS OF HOLDERS.

         The Trust Securities shall have no preemptive or similar rights and
when issued and delivered to Holders against payment of the purchase price
therefor will be fully paid and non-assessable by the Trust. Except as provided
in SECTION 5.11(B), the Holders of the Trust Securities, in their capacities as
such, shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to
stockholders of private corporations for profit organized under the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

         SECTION 5.6. BOOK-ENTRY PREFERRED SECURITIES.

         (a) A Global Preferred Security may be exchanged, in whole or in part,
for Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates registered in the names of the
Owners only if such exchange complies with SECTION 5.7 and (i) the Depositary
advises the Administrative Trustees and the Property Trustee in writing that the
Depositary is no longer willing or able properly to discharge its
responsibilities with respect to the Global Preferred Security, and no qualified
successor is appointed by the Administrative Trustees within ninety (90) days of
receipt of such notice, (ii) the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency
registered under the Exchange Act and the Administrative Trustees fail to
appoint a qualified successor within ninety (90) days of obtaining knowledge of
such event, (iii) the Administrative Trustees at their option advise the
Property Trustee in writing that the Trust elects to terminate the book-entry
system through the Depositary or (iv) a Note Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing. Upon the occurrence of any event specified in clause (i), (ii),
(iii) or (iv) above, the Administrative Trustees shall notify the Depositary and
instruct the Depositary to notify all Owners of Book-Entry Preferred Securities,
the Delaware Trustee and the Property Trustee of the occurrence of such event
and of the availability of the Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates to
Owners of the Preferred Securities requesting the same. Upon the issuance of
Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates, the Trustees shall recognize the
Holders of the Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates as Holders.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Owner of a beneficial interest in a Global
Preferred Security wishes at any time to transfer an interest in such Global
Preferred Security to a Person other than a QIB, such transfer shall be
effected, subject to the Applicable Depositary Procedures, in accordance with
the provisions of this SECTION 5.6 and SECTION 5.7, and the transferee shall
receive a Definitive Preferred Securities Certificate in connection with such
transfer. A holder of a Definitive Preferred Securities Certificate that is a
QIB may, upon request and in accordance with the provisions of this SECTION 5.6
and SECTION 5.7, exchange such Definitive Preferred Securities Certificate for a
beneficial interest in a Global Preferred Security.

         (b) If any Global Preferred Security is to be exchanged for Definitive
Preferred Securities Certificates or canceled in part, or if any Definitive
Preferred Securities Certificate is to be exchanged in whole or in part for any
Global Preferred Security, then either (i) such Global Preferred Security shall
be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation as provided in this ARTICLE V or
(ii) the aggregate Liquidation Amount represented by such Global Preferred
Security shall be reduced, subject to SECTION 5.4, or increased by an amount



                                       25
<PAGE>

equal to the Liquidation Amount represented by that portion of the Global
Preferred Security to be so exchanged or canceled, or equal to the Liquidation
Amount represented by such Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates to be so
exchanged for any Global Preferred Security, as the case may be, by means of an
appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Securities Registrar,
whereupon the Property Trustee, in accordance with the Applicable Depositary
Procedures, shall instruct the Depositary or its authorized representative to
make a corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon any such surrender to the
Administrative Trustees or the Securities Registrar of any Global Preferred
Security or Securities by the Depositary, accompanied by registration
instructions, the Administrative Trustees, or any one of them, shall execute the
Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates in accordance with the instructions
of the Depositary. None of the Securities Registrar or the Trustees shall be
liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely
on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, such instructions.

         (c) Every Definitive Preferred Securities Certificate executed and
delivered upon registration or transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a
Global Preferred Security or any portion thereof shall be executed and delivered
in the form of, and shall be, a Global Preferred Security, unless such
Definitive Preferred Securities Certificate is registered in the name of a
Person other than the Depositary for such Global Preferred Security or a nominee
thereof.

         (d) The Depositary or its nominee, as registered owner of a Global
Preferred Security, shall be the Holder of such Global Preferred Security for
all purposes under this Trust Agreement and the Global Preferred Security, and
Owners with respect to a Global Preferred Security shall hold such interests
pursuant to the Applicable Depositary Procedures. The Securities Registrar and
the Trustees shall be entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes of
this Trust Agreement relating to the Global Preferred Securities (including the
payment of the Liquidation Amount of and Distributions on the Book-Entry
Preferred Securities represented thereby and the giving of instructions or
directions by Owners of Book-Entry Preferred Securities represented thereby and
the giving of notices) as the sole Holder of the Book-Entry Preferred Securities
represented thereby and shall have no obligations to the Owners thereof. None of
the Trustees nor the Securities Registrar shall have any liability in respect of
any transfers effected by the Depositary.

         (e) The rights of the Owners of the Book-Entry Preferred Securities
shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to those
established by law, the Applicable Depositary Procedures and agreements between
such Owners and the Depositary and/or the Depositary Participants; PROVIDED,
solely for the purpose of determining whether the Holders of the requisite
amount of Preferred Securities have voted on any matter provided for in this
Trust Agreement, to the extent that Preferred Securities are represented by a
Global Preferred Security, the Trustees may conclusively rely on, and shall be
fully protected in relying on, any written instrument (including a proxy)
delivered to the Property Trustee by the Depositary setting forth the Owners'
votes or assigning the right to vote on any matter to any other Persons either
in whole or in part. To the extent that Preferred Securities are represented by
a Global Preferred Security, the initial Depositary will make book-entry
transfers among the Depositary Participants and receive and transmit payments on
the Preferred Securities that are represented by a Global Preferred Security to
such Depositary Participants, and none of the Depositor or the Trustees shall
have any responsibility or obligation with respect thereto.



                                       26
<PAGE>


         (f) To the extent that a notice or other communication to the Holders
is required under this Trust Agreement, for so long as Preferred Securities are
represented by a Global Preferred Security, the Trustees shall give all such
notices and communications to the Depositary, and shall have no obligations to
the Owners.

         SECTION 5.7. REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF PREFERRED
SECURITIES CERTIFICATES.

         (a) The Property Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept, at the
Corporate Trust Office, a register or registers (the "SECURITIES REGISTER") in
which the registrar and transfer agent with respect to the Trust Securities (the
"SECURITIES REGISTRAR"), subject to such reasonable regulations as it may
prescribe, shall provide for the registration of Preferred Securities
Certificates and Common Securities Certificates and registration of transfers
and exchanges of Preferred Securities Certificates as herein provided. The
Person acting as the Property Trustee shall at all times also be the Securities
Registrar. The provisions of ARTICLE VIII shall apply to the Property Trustee in
its role as Securities Registrar.

         (b) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Preferred
Securities Certificate at the office or agency maintained pursuant to SECTION
5.7(F), the Administrative Trustees or any one of them shall execute by manual
or facsimile signature and deliver to the Property Trustee, and the Property
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee
or transferees, one or more new Preferred Securities Certificates in authorized
denominations of a like aggregate Liquidation Amount as may be required by this
Trust Agreement dated the date of execution by such Administrative Trustee or
Trustees. At the option of a Holder, Preferred Securities Certificates may be
exchanged for other Preferred Securities Certificates in authorized
denominations and of a like aggregate Liquidation Amount upon surrender of the
Preferred Securities Certificate to be exchanged at the office or agency
maintained pursuant to SECTION 5.7(F). Whenever any Preferred Securities
Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Administrative Trustees or any
one of them shall execute by manual or facsimile signature and deliver to the
Property Trustee, and the Property Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the
Preferred Securities Certificates that the Holder making the exchange is
entitled to receive.

         (c) The Securities Registrar shall not be required, (i) to issue,
register the transfer of or exchange any Preferred Security during a period
beginning at the opening of business fifteen (15) days before the day of
selection for redemption of such Preferred Securities pursuant to ARTICLE IV and
ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of the notice of
redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Preferred
Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of
any such Preferred Security to be redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to
be redeemed.

         (d) Every Preferred Securities Certificate presented or surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied
by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Securities
Registrar duly executed by the Holder or such Holder's attorney duly authorized
in writing and (i) if such Preferred Securities Certificate is being transferred
to a QIB, accompanied by a certificate of the transferor substantially in the



                                       27
<PAGE>

form set forth as EXHIBIT E hereto or (ii) if such Preferred Securities
Certificate is being transferred otherwise than to a QIB, accompanied by a
certificate of the transferee substantially in the form set forth as EXHIBIT F
hereto.

         (e) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Preferred Securities Certificates, but the Property Trustee on
behalf of the Trust may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or
exchange of Preferred Securities Certificates.

         (f) The Administrative Trustees shall designate an office or offices or
agency or agencies where Preferred Securities Certificates may be surrendered
for registration of transfer or exchange. The Depositor initially designates the
Corporate Trust Office as its office and agency for such purposes. The
Administrative Trustees shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor, the
Property Trustee and to the Holders of any change in the location of any such
office or agency.

         SECTION 5.8. MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN SECURITIES
CERTIFICATES.

         (a) If any mutilated Securities Certificate shall be surrendered to the
Securities Registrar together with such security or indemnity as may be required
by the Securities Registrar and the Administrative Trustees to save each of them
harmless, the Administrative Trustees, or any one of them, on behalf of the
Trust, shall execute and make available for delivery in exchange therefor a new
Securities Certificate of like class, tenor and denomination.

         (b) If the Securities Registrar shall receive evidence to its
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Securities Certificate and
there shall be delivered to the Securities Registrar and the Administrative
Trustees such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of
them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Securities Certificate
shall have been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Administrative Trustees,
or any one of them, on behalf of the Trust, shall execute and make available for
delivery, and, with respect to Preferred Securities, the Property Trustee shall
authenticate, in exchange for or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen
Securities Certificate, a new Securities Certificate of like class, tenor and
denomination.

         (c) In connection with the issuance of any new Securities Certificate
under this SECTION 5.8, the Administrative Trustees or the Securities Registrar
may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.

         (d) Any duplicate Securities Certificate issued pursuant to this
SECTION 5.8 shall constitute conclusive evidence of an undivided beneficial
interest in the assets of the Trust corresponding to that evidenced by the
mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed Securities Certificate, as if originally
issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Securities Certificate
shall be found at any time.

         (e) If any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has
become or is about to become due and payable, the Depositor in its discretion
may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

         (f) The provisions of this SECTION 5.8 are exclusive and shall preclude
(to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the
replacement of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities Certificates.

         SECTION 5.9. PERSONS DEEMED HOLDERS.

         The Trustees and the Securities Registrar shall each treat the Person
in whose name any Securities Certificate shall be registered in the Securities
Register as the owner of such Securities Certificate for the purpose of
receiving Distributions and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the
Trustees and the Securities Registrar shall be bound by any notice to the
contrary.

         SECTION 5.10. CANCELLATION.

         All Preferred Securities Certificates surrendered for registration of
transfer or exchange or for payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other
than the Property Trustee, be delivered to the Property Trustee, and any such
Preferred Securities Certificates and Preferred Securities Certificates
surrendered directly to the Property Trustee for any such purpose shall be
promptly canceled by it. The Administrative Trustees may at any time deliver to
the Property Trustee for cancellation any Preferred Securities Certificates
previously delivered hereunder that the Administrative Trustees may have
acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Preferred Securities Certificates so
delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Property Trustee. No Preferred
Securities Certificates shall be executed and delivered in lieu of or in
exchange for any Preferred Securities Certificates canceled as provided in this
SECTION 5.10, except as expressly permitted by this Trust Agreement. All
canceled Preferred Securities Certificates shall be disposed of by the Property
Trustee in accordance with its customary practices and the Property Trustee
shall deliver to the Administrative Trustees a certificate of such disposition.

         SECTION 5.11. OWNERSHIP OF COMMON SECURITIES BY DEPOSITOR.

         (a) On the Closing Date, the Depositor shall acquire, and thereafter
shall retain, beneficial and record ownership of the Common Securities. Neither
the Depositor nor any successor Holder of the Common Securities may transfer
less than all the Common Securities, and the Depositor or any such successor
Holder may transfer the Common Securities only (i) in connection with a
consolidation or merger of the Depositor into another Person, or any conveyance,
transfer or lease by the Depositor of its properties and assets substantially as
an entirety to any Person (in which event such Common Securities will be
transferred to such surviving entity, transferee or lessee, as the case may be),
pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Indenture or (ii) to the Depositor or an
Affiliate of the Depositor, in each such case in compliance with applicable law
(including the Securities Act, and applicable state securities and blue sky
laws). To the fullest extent permitted by law, any attempted transfer of the
Common Securities other than as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence
shall be void. The Administrative Trustees shall cause each Common Securities
Certificate issued to the Depositor to contain a legend stating substantially
"THIS CERTIFICATE IS NOT TRANSFERABLE EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW
AND SECTION 5.11 OF THE TRUST AGREEMENT."




                                       29
<PAGE>

         (b) Any Holder of the Common Securities shall be liable for the debts
and obligations of the Trust in the manner and to the extent set forth with
respect to the Depositor and agrees that it shall be subject to all liabilities
to which the Depositor may be subject and, prior to becoming such a Holder,
shall deliver to the Administrative Trustees an instrument of assumption
satisfactory to such Trustees.

         SECTION 5.12. RESTRICTED LEGENDS.

         (a) Each Preferred Security Certificate shall bear a legend in
substantially the following form:

         "THE PREFERRED SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE
         ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE
         SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND SUCH
         PREFERRED SECURITIES OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN, MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD
         OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN
         APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EACH PURCHASER OF ANY PREFERRED
         SECURITIES IS HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT THE SELLER OF THE PREFERRED

         PREFERRED SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, RESOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED
         ONLY (I) TO THE TRUST, (II) TO A PERSON WHOM THE SELLER REASONABLY

         FOR THE ACCOUNT OF AN "ACCREDITED INVESTOR," FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES
         AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR FOR OFFER OR SALE IN CONNECTION WITH, ANY
         DISTRIBUTION IN VIOLATION OF THE SECURITIES ACT, (IV) PURSUANT TO AN
         EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (V)
         PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN
         ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE
         UNITED STATES OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE JURISDICTION AND, IN THE CASE OF
         (III) OR (V), SUBJECT TO THE RIGHT OF THE TRUST AND THE DEPOSITOR TO
         REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL AND OTHER INFORMATION SATISFACTORY TO

         PREFERRED SECURITIES FROM IT OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO IN
         (A) ABOVE.

         THE PREFERRED SECURITIES WILL BE ISSUED AND MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN
         BLOCKS HAVING AN AGGREGATE LIQUIDATION AMOUNT OF NOT LESS THAN
         $100,000. ANY ATTEMPTED TRANSFER OF PREFERRED SECURITIES, OR ANY
         INTEREST THEREIN, IN A BLOCK HAVING AN AGGREGATE LIQUIDATION AMOUNT OF
         LESS THAN $100,000 AND MULTIPLES OF $1,000 IN EXCESS THEREOF SHALL BE
         DEEMED TO BE VOID AND OF NO LEGAL EFFECT WHATSOEVER. ANY SUCH PURPORTED
         TRANSFEREE SHALL BE DEEMED NOT TO BE THE HOLDER OF SUCH PREFERRED
         SECURITIES FOR ANY PURPOSE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE RECEIPT
         OF PRINCIPAL OF OR INTEREST ON SUCH PREFERRED SECURITIES, OR ANY
         INTEREST THEREIN, AND SUCH PURPORTED TRANSFEREE SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE
         NO INTEREST WHATSOEVER IN SUCH PREFERRED SECURITIES.

         THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY, OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE
         HEREOF OR THEREOF ALSO AGREES, REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT IS NOT
         AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT, INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNT OR OTHER PLAN OR
         ARRANGEMENT SUBJECT TO TITLE I OF THE EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME
         SECURITY ACT OF 1974, AS AMENDED ("ERISA"), OR SECTION 4975 OF THE
         INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED (THE "CODE") (EACH A "PLAN"),
         OR AN ENTITY WHOSE UNDERLYING ASSETS INCLUDE "PLAN ASSETS" BY REASON OF
         ANY PLAN'S INVESTMENT IN THE ENTITY, AND NO PERSON INVESTING "PLAN
         ASSETS" OF ANY PLAN MAY ACQUIRE OR HOLD THIS PREFERRED SECURITY OR ANY
         INTEREST THEREIN. ANY PURCHASER OR HOLDER OF THE PREFERRED SECURITIES
         OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN WILL BE DEEMED TO HAVE REPRESENTED BY ITS
         PURCHASE AND HOLDING THEREOF THAT IT IS NOT AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN
         WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 3(3) OF ERISA, OR A PLAN TO WHICH SECTION
         4975 OF THE CODE IS APPLICABLE, A TRUSTEE OR OTHER PERSON ACTING ON
         BEHALF OF AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN OR PLAN, OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR
         ENTITY USING THE ASSETS OF ANY EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN OR PLAN TO FINANCE
         SUCH PURCHASE.

         STATES OR ANY AGENCY OR FUND OF THE UNITED STATES, INCLUDING THE

         (b) The above legend shall not be removed from any of the Preferred
Securities Certificates unless there is delivered to the Property Trustee and
the Depositor satisfactory evidence, which may include an opinion of counsel, as
may be reasonably required to ensure that any future transfers thereof may be
made without restriction under the provisions of the Securities Act and other
applicable law. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, one or more of the
Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust shall execute and deliver to the
Property Trustee, and the Property Trustee shall deliver, at the written
direction of the Administrative Trustees and the Depositor, Preferred Securities
Certificates that do not bear the legend.

         SECTION 5.13. FORM OF CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICATION.

         The Property Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be in
substantially the following form:

         This is one of the Preferred Securities referred to in the
within-mentioned Trust Agreement.

Dated:                              The Bank of New York, not in its individual
                                    capacity, but solely as Property Trustee


                                    By:
                                       ------------------------------------

                                  ARTICLE VI.

                        Meetings; Voting; Acts of Holders

         SECTION 6.1. NOTICE OF MEETINGS.

         Notice of all meetings of the Holders of the Preferred Securities,
stating the time, place and purpose of the meeting, shall be given by the
Property Trustee pursuant to SECTION 10.8 to each Holder of Preferred
Securities, at such Holder's registered address, at least fifteen (15) days and
not more than ninety (90) days before the meeting. At any such meeting, any
business properly before the meeting may be so considered whether or not stated
in the notice of the meeting. Any adjourned meeting may be held as adjourned
without further notice.

         SECTION 6.2. MEETINGS OF HOLDERS OF THE PREFERRED SECURITIES.

         (a) No annual meeting of Holders is required to be held. The Property
Trustee, however, shall call a meeting of the Holders of the Preferred
Securities to vote on any matter upon the written request of the Holders of at
least twenty five percent (25%) in aggregate Liquidation Amount of the
Outstanding Preferred Securities and the Administrative Trustees or the Property
Trustee may, at any time in their discretion, call a meeting of the Holders of
the Preferred Securities to vote on any matters as to which such Holders are
entitled to vote.

         (b) The Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the
Preferred Securities, present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum
at any meeting of the Holders of the Preferred Securities.

         (c) If a quorum is present at a meeting, an affirmative vote by the
Holders present, in person or by proxy, holding Preferred Securities
representing at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities held by the Holders present, either in person or by proxy, at such
meeting shall constitute the action of the Holders of the Preferred Securities,
unless this Trust Agreement requires a lesser or greater number of affirmative
votes.




                                       32
<PAGE>

         SECTION 6.3. VOTING RIGHTS.

         Holders shall be entitled to one vote for each $10,000 of Liquidation
Amount represented by their Outstanding Trust Securities in respect of any
matter as to which such Holders are entitled to vote.

         SECTION 6.4. PROXIES, ETC.

         At any meeting of Holders, any Holder entitled to vote thereat may vote
by proxy, PROVIDED, that no proxy shall be voted at any meeting unless it shall
have been placed on file with the Administrative Trustees, or with such other
officer or agent of the Trust as the Administrative Trustees may direct, for
verification prior to the time at which such vote shall be taken. Pursuant to a
resolution of the Property Trustee, proxies may be solicited in the name of the
Property Trustee or one or more officers of the Property Trustee. Only Holders
of record shall be entitled to vote. When Trust Securities are held jointly by
several Persons, any one of them may vote at any meeting in person or by proxy
in respect of such Trust Securities, but if more than one of them shall be
present at such meeting in person or by proxy, and such joint owners or their
proxies so present disagree as to any vote to be cast, such vote shall not be
received in respect of such Trust Securities. A proxy purporting to be executed
by or on behalf of a Holder shall be deemed valid unless challenged at or prior
to its exercise, and the burden of proving invalidity shall rest on the
challenger. No proxy shall be valid more than three years after its date of
execution.

         SECTION 6.5. HOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT.

         Any action that may be taken by Holders at a meeting may be taken
without a meeting and without prior notice if Holders holding at least a
Majority in Liquidation Amount of all Preferred Securities entitled to vote in
respect of such action (or such lesser or greater proportion thereof as shall be
required by any other provision of this Trust Agreement) shall consent to the
action in writing; PROVIDED, that notice of such action is promptly provided to
the Holders of Preferred Securities that did not consent to such action. Any
action that may be taken by the Holders of all the Common Securities may be
taken without a meeting and without prior notice if such Holders shall consent
to the action in writing.

         SECTION 6.6. RECORD DATE FOR VOTING AND OTHER PURPOSES.

         Except as provided in SECTION 6.10(A), for the purposes of determining
the Holders who are entitled to notice of and to vote at any meeting or to act
by written consent, or to participate in any distribution on the Trust
Securities in respect of which a record date is not otherwise provided for in
this Trust Agreement, or for the purpose of any other action, the Administrative
Trustees may from time to time fix a date, not more than ninety (90) days prior
to the date of any meeting of Holders or the payment of a Distribution or other
action, as the case may be, as a record date for the determination of the
identity of the Holders of record for such purposes.

         SECTION 6.7. ACTS OF HOLDERS.

         (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Trust Agreement to be
given, made or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more
instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or



                                       33
<PAGE>

by an agent thereof duly appointed in writing; and, except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, such action shall become effective when such
instrument or instruments are delivered to an Administrative Trustee. Such
instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced
thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "ACT" of the Holders signing
such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of
a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this
Trust Agreement and conclusive in favor of the Trustees, if made in the manner
provided in this SECTION 6.7.

         (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 such signer's
individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute
sufficient proof of such signer's 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 manner that any Trustee receiving the same
deems sufficient.

         (c) The ownership of Trust Securities shall be proved by the Securities
Register.

         (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Trust Security shall bind every future
Holder of the same Trust Security and the Holder of every Trust 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
Trustees, the Administrative Trustees or the Trust in reliance thereon, whether
or not notation of such action is made upon such Trust Security.

         (e) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take
any action hereunder with regard to any particular Trust Security may do so with
regard to all or any part of the Liquidation Amount of such Trust Security or by
one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such
appointment with regard to all or any part of such Liquidation Amount.

         (f) If any dispute shall arise among the Holders or the Trustees with
respect to the authenticity, validity or binding nature of any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of such Holder or
Trustee under this ARTICLE VI, then the determination of such matter by the
Property Trustee shall be conclusive with respect to such matter.

         SECTION 6.8. INSPECTION OF RECORDS.

         Upon reasonable written notice to the Administrative Trustees and the
Property Trustee, the records of the Trust shall be open to inspection by any
Holder during normal business hours for any purpose reasonably related to such
Holder's interest as a Holder.

         SECTION 6.9. LIMITATIONS ON VOTING RIGHTS.

         (a) Except as expressly provided in this Trust Agreement and in the
Indenture and as otherwise required by law, no Holder of Preferred Securities
shall have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the
administration, operation and management of the Trust or the obligations of the
parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms
of the Securities Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Holders
from time to time as partners or members of an association.

         (b) So long as any Notes are held by the Property Trustee on behalf of
the Trust, the Property Trustee shall not (i) direct the time, method and place
of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Note Trustee, or
exercise any trust or power conferred on the Property Trustee with respect to
the Notes, (ii) waive any past default that may be waived under Section 5.13 of
the Indenture, (iii) exercise any right to rescind or annul a declaration that
the principal of all the Notes shall be due and payable or (iv) consent to any
amendment, modification or termination of the Indenture or the Notes, where such
consent shall be required, without, in each case, obtaining the prior approval
of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities; PROVIDED, that where a consent under the Indenture would require the
consent of each holder of Notes (or each Holder of Preferred Securities)
affected thereby, no such consent shall be given by the Property Trustee without
the prior written consent of each Holder of Preferred Securities. The Property
Trustee shall not revoke any action previously authorized or approved by a vote
of the Holders of the Preferred Securities, except by a subsequent vote of the
Holders of the Preferred Securities. In addition to obtaining the foregoing
approvals of the Holders of the Preferred Securities, prior to taking any of the
foregoing actions, the Property Trustee shall, at the expense of the Depositor,
obtain an Opinion of Counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that such
action shall not cause the Trust to be taxable as a corporation or classified as
other than a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes.

         (c) If any proposed amendment to the Trust Agreement provides for, or
the Trustees otherwise propose to effect, (i) any action that would adversely
affect in any material respect the powers, preferences or special rights of the
Preferred Securities, whether by way of amendment to the Trust Agreement or
otherwise or (ii) the dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, other
than pursuant to the terms of this Trust Agreement, then the Holders of
Outstanding Preferred Securities as a class will be entitled to vote on such
amendment or proposal and such amendment or proposal shall not be effective
except with the approval of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation
Amount of the Preferred Securities. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Trust Agreement, no amendment to this Trust Agreement may be made if, as a
result of such amendment, it would cause the Trust to be taxable as a
corporation or classified as other than a grantor trust for United States
federal income tax purposes.

         SECTION 6.10. ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION OF ANNULMENT;
WAIVERS OF PAST DEFAULTS.

         (a) For so long as any Preferred Securities remain Outstanding, if,
upon a Note Event of Default, the Note Trustee fails or the holders of not less
than twenty five percent (25%) in principal amount of the outstanding Notes fail
to declare the principal of all of the Notes to be immediately due and payable,
the Holders of at least twenty five percent (25%) in Liquidation Amount of the



                                       35
<PAGE>

Preferred Securities then Outstanding shall have the right to make such
declaration by a notice in writing to the Property Trustee, the Depositor and
the Note Trustee. At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect
to the Notes has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the
money due has been obtained by the Note Trustee as provided in the Indenture,
the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities, by written notice to the Property Trustee, the Depositor and the
Note Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

                  (i) the Depositor has paid or deposited with the Note Trustee
         a sum sufficient to pay:

                           (A) all overdue installments of interest on all of
                  the Notes;

                           (B) any accrued Additional Interest on all of the
                  Notes;

                           (C) the principal of and any premium on any Notes
                  that have become due otherwise than by such declaration of
                  acceleration and interest and Additional Interest thereon at
                  the rate borne by the Notes; and

                           (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Note Trustee
                  under the Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses,
                  disbursements and advances of the Note Trustee, the Property
                  Trustee and their agents and counsel; and

                  (ii) all Note Events of Default, other than the non-payment of
         the principal of the Notes that has become due solely by such
         acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13 of
         the Indenture.

         Upon receipt by the Property Trustee of written notice requesting such
an acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof, by Holders of any part of
the Preferred Securities, a record date shall be established for determining
Holders of Outstanding Preferred Securities entitled to join in such notice,
which record date shall be at the close of business on the day the Property
Trustee receives such notice. The Holders on such record date, or their duly
designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such
notice, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date;
PROVIDED, that, unless such declaration of acceleration, or rescission and
annulment, as the case may be, shall have become effective by virtue of the
requisite percentage having joined in such notice prior to the day that is
ninety (90) days after such record date, such notice of declaration of
acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall
automatically and without further action by any Holder be canceled and of no
further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder, or a proxy of
a Holder, from giving, after expiration of such ninety (90)-day period, a new
written notice of declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment
thereof, as the case may be, that is identical to a written notice that has been
canceled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new
record date shall be established pursuant to the provisions of this Section
6.10(a).

         (b) For so long as any Preferred Securities remain Outstanding, to the
fullest extent permitted by law and subject to the terms of this Trust Agreement
and the Indenture, upon a Note Event of Default specified in paragraph (a) or
(b) of Section 5.1 of the Indenture, any Holder of Preferred Securities shall




                                       36
<PAGE>

have the right to institute a proceeding directly against the Depositor,
pursuant to Section 5.8 of the Indenture, for enforcement of payment to such
Holder of any amounts payable in respect of Notes having an aggregate principal
amount equal to the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities of
such Holder. Except as set forth in SECTION 6.10(A) and this SECTION 6.10(B),
the Holders of Preferred Securities shall have no right to exercise directly any
right or remedy available to the holders of, or in respect of, the Notes.

         (c) Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b) of this SECTION 6.10, the
Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities
may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Preferred Securities, waive any Note
Event of Default, except any Note Event of Default arising from the failure to
pay any principal of or any premium or interest on (including any Additional
Interest) the Notes (unless such Note Event of Default has been cured and a sum
sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and all principal and
premium on all Notes due otherwise than by acceleration has been deposited with
the Note Trustee) or a Note Event of Default in respect of a covenant or
provision that under the Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the
consent of the holder of each outstanding Note. Upon any such waiver, such Note
Event of Default shall cease to exist and any Note Event of Default arising
therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of the Indenture;
but no such waiver shall affect any subsequent Note Event of Default or impair
any right consequent thereon.

         (d) Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b) of this SECTION 6.10, the
Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities
may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Preferred Securities, waive any past
Event of Default and its consequences. Upon such waiver, any such Event of
Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall
be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Trust Agreement, but no
such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair
any right consequent thereon.

         (e) The Holders of a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Property Trustee in
respect of this Trust Agreement or the Notes or exercising any trust or power
conferred upon the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement; PROVIDED, that,
subject to SECTIONS 8.5 and 8.7, the Property Trustee shall have the right to
decline to follow any such direction if the Property Trustee being advised by
counsel determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken, or if
the Property Trustee in good faith shall, by an officer or officers of the
Property Trustee, determine that the proceedings so directed would be illegal or
involve it in personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to the rights of
Holders not party to such direction, and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that nothing in this
Trust Agreement shall impair the right of the Property Trustee to take any
action deemed proper by the Property Trustee and which is not inconsistent with
such direction.

                  (h) to the best of each of the Property Trustee's and the
         Delaware Trustee's knowledge, there are no proceedings pending or
         threatened against or affecting the Property Trustee or the Delaware
         Trustee in any court or before any governmental authority, agency or
         arbitration board or tribunal that, individually or in the aggregate,
         would materially and adversely affect the Trust or would question the
         right, power and authority of the Property Trustee or the Delaware
         Trustee, as the case may be, to enter into or perform its obligations
         as one of the Trustees under this Trust Agreement.

                                 ARTICLE VIII.

                                  The Trustees

         SECTION 8.1. NUMBER OF TRUSTEES.

         The number of Trustees shall be five (5); PROVIDED, that the Property
Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may be the same Person, in which case the
number of Trustees shall be four (4). The number of Trustees may be increased or
decreased by Act of the Holder of the Common Securities subject to SECTIONS 8.2,
8.3, and 8.4. The death, resignation, retirement, removal, bankruptcy,
incompetence or incapacity to perform the duties of a Trustee shall not operate
to annul, dissolve or terminate the Trust.

         SECTION 8.2. PROPERTY TRUSTEE REQUIRED.

         There shall at all times be a Property Trustee hereunder with respect
to the Trust Securities. The Property Trustee shall be a corporation organized
and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof,
authorized to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and
surplus of at least fifty million dollars ($50,000,000), subject to supervision
or examination by federal or state authority and having an office within the
United States. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least
annually pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this SECTION 8.2, the combined capital and
surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as
set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time
the Property Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this SECTION 8.2, it shall resign immediately in the manner and
with the effect hereinafter specified in this ARTICLE VIII.

         SECTION 8.3. DELAWARE TRUSTEE REQUIRED.

         (a) If required by the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, there shall at all
times be a Delaware Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities. The Delaware
Trustee shall either be (i) a natural person who is at least 21 years of age and
a resident of the State of Delaware or (ii) a legal entity that has its
principal place of business in the State of Delaware, otherwise meets the
requirements of applicable Delaware law and shall act through one or more
persons authorized to bind such entity. If at any time the Delaware Trustee



                                       40
<PAGE>

shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this SECTION
8.3, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter
specified in this ARTICLE VIII.

         (b) The Delaware Trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any powers,
nor shall the Delaware Trustee have any of the duties and responsibilities, of
the Property Trustee or the Administrative Trustees set forth herein. The
Delaware Trustee shall be one of the trustees of the Trust for the sole and
limited purpose of fulfilling the requirements of Section 3807 of the Delaware
Statutory Trust Act and for taking such actions as are required to be taken by a
Delaware trustee under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act. The duties (including
fiduciary duties), liabilities and obligations of the Delaware Trustee shall be
limited to (a) accepting legal process served on the Trust in the State of
Delaware and (b) the execution of any certificates required to be filed with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware that the Delaware Trustee is
required to execute under Section 3811 of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act and
there shall be no other duties (including fiduciary duties) or obligations,
express or implied, at law or in equity, of the Delaware Trustee.

         SECTION 8.4. APPOINTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE TRUSTEES.

         (a) There shall at all times be one or more Administrative Trustees
hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities. Each Administrative Trustee
shall be either a natural person who is at least 21 years of age or a legal
entity that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind that
entity. Each of the individuals identified as an "ADMINISTRATIVE TRUSTEE" in the
preamble of this Trust Agreement hereby accepts his or her appointment as such.

         (b) Except where a requirement for action by a specific number of
Administrative Trustees is expressly set forth in this Trust Agreement, any act
required or permitted to be taken by, and any power of the Administrative
Trustees may be exercised by, or with the consent of, any one such
Administrative Trustee. Whenever a vacancy in the number of Administrative
Trustees shall occur, until such vacancy is filled by the appointment of an
Administrative Trustee in accordance with SECTION 8.11, the Administrative
Trustees in office, regardless of their number (and notwithstanding any other
provision of this Trust Agreement), shall have all the powers granted to the
Administrative Trustees and shall discharge all the duties imposed upon the
Administrative Trustees by this Trust Agreement.

         SECTION 8.5. DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES.

         (a) The rights, immunities, duties and responsibilities of the Trustees
shall be as provided by this Trust Agreement and there shall be no other duties
(including fiduciary duties) or obligations, express or implied, at law or in
equity, of the Trustees; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if an Event of Default known to
the Property Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Property Trustee shall,
prior to the receipt of directions, if any, from the Holders of at least a
Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, exercise such of the
rights and powers vested in it by the Indenture, and use the same degree of care
and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no provision of this Trust Agreement shall require any of the
Trustees 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 or their rights or powers, if it or they shall have reasonable
grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against


                                       41
<PAGE>

such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. Whether or not herein
expressly so provided, every provision of this Trust Agreement relating to the
conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustees
shall be subject to the provisions of this SECTION 8.5. To the extent that, at
law or in equity, a Trustee has duties and liabilities relating to the Trust or
to the Holders, such Trustee shall not be liable to the Trust or to any Holder
for such Trustee's good faith reliance on the provisions of this Trust
Agreement. The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they
restrict the duties and liabilities of the Trustees otherwise existing at law or
in equity, are agreed by the Depositor and the Holders to replace such other
duties and liabilities of the Trustees.

         (b) All payments made by the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent in
respect of the Trust Securities shall be made only from the revenue and proceeds
from the Trust Property and only to the extent that there shall be sufficient
revenue or proceeds from the Trust Property to enable the Property Trustee or a
Paying Agent to make payments in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Holder,
by its acceptance of a Trust Security, agrees that it will look solely to the
revenue and proceeds from the Trust Property to the extent legally available for
distribution to it as herein provided and that the Trustees are not personally
liable to it for any amount distributable in respect of any Trust Security or
for any other liability in respect of any Trust Security. This SECTION 8.5(B)
does not limit the liability of the Trustees expressly set forth elsewhere in
this Trust Agreement.

         (c) No provisions of this Trust Agreement shall be construed to relieve
the Property Trustee from liability with respect to matters that are within the
authority of the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement for its own
negligent action, negligent failure to act or willful misconduct, except that:

                  (i) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any error or
         judgment made in good faith by an authorized officer of the Property
         Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Property Trustee was
         negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

                  (ii) the Property Trustee shall not be liable with respect to
         any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
         accordance with the direction of the Holders of at least a Majority in
         Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities relating to the time,
         method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available
         to the Property Trustee hereunder or under the Indenture, or exercising
         any trust or power conferred upon the Property Trustee under this Trust
         Agreement;

                  (iii) the Property Trustee's sole duty with respect to the
         custody, safe keeping and physical preservation of the Notes and the
         Payment Account shall be to deal with such Property in a similar manner
         as the Property Trustee deals with similar property for its own
         account, subject to the protections and limitations on liability
         afforded to the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement;

                  (iv) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any interest
         on any money received by it except as it may otherwise agree with the
         Depositor; and money held by the Property Trustee need not be



                                       42
<PAGE>

         segregated from other funds held by it except in relation to the
         Payment Account maintained by the Property Trustee pursuant to SECTION
         3.1 and except to the extent otherwise required by law; and

                  (v) the Property Trustee shall not be responsible for
         monitoring the compliance by the Administrative Trustees or the
         Depositor with their respective duties under this Trust Agreement, nor
         shall the Property Trustee be liable for the default or misconduct of
         any other Trustee or the Depositor.

         SECTION 8.6. NOTICES OF DEFAULTS AND EXTENSIONS.

         (a) Within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of a default actually
known to the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee shall transmit notice of
such default to the Holders, the Administrative Trustees and the Depositor,
unless such default shall have been cured or waived; PROVIDED, that, except in
the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or any premium or
interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Trust Security, the Property
Trustee shall be fully protected in withholding such notice if and so long as
the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of
directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Property Trustee in good faith
determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the
Holders of the Trust Securities. For the purpose of this SECTION 8.6, the term
"DEFAULT" means any event that is, or after notice or lapse of time or both
would become, an Event of Default.

         (b) Within five (5) Business Days after the receipt of notice of the
Depositor's exercise of its right to defer the payment of interest on the Notes
pursuant to the Indenture, the Property Trustee shall transmit, in the manner
and to the extent provided in SECTION 10.8, notice of such exercise to the
Holders and the Administrative Trustees, unless such exercise shall have been
revoked.

         (c) The Property Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any
Event of Default unless the Property Trustee shall have received written notice
thereof from the Depositor, any Administrative Trustee or any Holder or unless
an officer of the Property Trustee charged with the administration of this Trust
Agreement shall have obtained actual knowledge of such Event of Default.

         (d) The Property Trustee shall notify all Holders of the Preferred
Securities of any notice of default received with respect to the Notes.

         SECTION 8.7. CERTAIN RIGHTS OF PROPERTY TRUSTEE.

         Subject to the provisions of SECTION 8.5:

         (a) the Property Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected
in acting or refraining from acting in good faith and in accordance with the
terms hereof upon any resolution, Opinion of Counsel, certificate, written
representation of a Holder or transferee, certificate of auditors or any other
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,
request, direction, consent, order, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, other
evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine

<PAGE>

         (b) if (i) in performing its duties under this Trust Agreement the
Property Trustee is required to decide between alternative courses of action,
(ii) in construing any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement the Property
Trustee finds a provision ambiguous or inconsistent with any other provisions
contained herein or (iii) the Property Trustee is unsure of the application of
any provision of this Trust Agreement, then, except as to any matter as to which
the Holders of the Preferred Securities are entitled to vote under the terms of
this Trust Agreement, the Property Trustee shall deliver a notice to the
Depositor requesting the Depositor's written instruction as to the course of
action to be taken and the Property Trustee shall take such action, or refrain
from taking such action, as the Property Trustee shall be instructed in writing
to take, or to refrain from taking, by the Depositor; PROVIDED, that if the
Property Trustee does not receive such instructions of the Depositor within ten
(10) Business Days after it has delivered such notice or such reasonably shorter
period of time set forth in such notice, the Property Trustee may, but shall be
under no duty to, take such action, or refrain from taking such action, as the
Property Trustee shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the Holders,
in which event the Property Trustee shall have no liability except for its own
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct;

Agreement shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers' Certificate unless

this Trust Agreement shall be sufficiently evidenced by a certificate executed
by such Administrative Trustee and setting forth such direction or act;

         (e) the Property Trustee shall have no duty to see to any recording,
filing or registration of any instrument (including any financing or
continuation statement or any filing under tax or securities laws) or any
re-recording, re-filing or re-registration thereof;

         (f) the Property Trustee may consult with counsel (which counsel may be

complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered
or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon and in
accordance with such advice; the Property Trustee shall have the right at any
time to seek instructions concerning the administration of this Trust Agreement
from any court of competent jurisdiction;

         (g) the Property Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any
of the rights or powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement at the request or
direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Trust Agreement, unless such

expenses) and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such
request or direction, including reasonable advances as may be requested by the
Property Trustee;

enforcing any remedy or right hereunder, the Property Trustee (i) may request

Holders of the same proportion in Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities as
would be entitled to direct the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement in
respect of such remedy, right or action), (ii) may refrain from enforcing such
remedy or right or taking such other action until such instructions are received
and (iii) shall be protected in acting in accordance with such instructions;

faith on its part, request and rely on an Officers' Certificate which, upon
receipt of such request, shall be promptly delivered by the Depositor.

         No provision of this Trust Agreement shall be deemed to impose any duty
or obligation on any Trustee to perform any act or acts or exercise any right,
power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it, in any jurisdiction in
which it shall be illegal, or in which such Person shall be unqualified or



                                       45

         time to time such reasonable compensation for all services rendered by
         them hereunder as may be agreed by the Depositor and such Trustees from

         pursuant to SECTION 8.10(A) or (B) hereof), penalty, expense or claim

         The Trust shall have no payment, reimbursement or indemnity obligations

of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot,
embargo, government action, including any laws, ordinances, regulations,
governmental action or the like which delay, restrict or prohibit the providing
of the services contemplated by this Trust Agreement.

         SECTION 8.11. RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL; APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR.

the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, or both of them, may be removed
(with or without cause) at any time by Act of the Holder of Common Securities.

Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, or both of them, may be removed (with or
without cause) at such time by Act of the Holders of at least a Majority in

applicable requirements of SECTION 8.12. If an Administrative Trustee shall
resign, be removed or become incapable of acting as Administrative Trustee, at a
time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Holder
of the Common Securities by Act of the Holder of Common Securities shall
promptly appoint a successor Administrative Trustee and such successor
Administrative Trustee and the retiring Administrative Trustee shall comply with
the applicable requirements of SECTION 8.12. If no successor Trustee shall have
been so appointed by the Holder of the Common Securities or Holders of the
Preferred Securities, as the case may be, and accepted appointment in the manner
required by SECTION 8.12 within thirty (30) days after the giving of a notice of
resignation by a Trustee, the removal of a Trustee, or a Trustee becoming
incapable of acting as such Trustee, any Holder who has been a Holder of
Preferred Securities for at least six (6) months may, on behalf of himself and
all others similarly situated, and any resigning Trustee may, in each case, at
the expense of the Depositor, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Trustee.

         (e) The Depositor shall give notice of each resignation and each
removal of the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee and each appointment of
a successor Property Trustee or Delaware Trustee to all Holders in the manner
provided in SECTION 10.8. Each notice shall include the name of the successor
Property Trustee or Delaware Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust
Office if it is the Property Trustee.

         (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Trust
Agreement, in the event any Administrative Trustee or a Delaware Trustee who is
a natural person dies or becomes, in the opinion of the Holder of Common
Securities, incompetent or incapacitated, the vacancy created by such death,
incompetence or incapacity may be filled by (i) the unanimous act of the
remaining Administrative Trustees if there are at least two of them or (ii)
otherwise by the Holder of the Common Securities (with the successor in each
case being a Person who satisfies the eligibility requirement for Administrative
Trustees or Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, set forth in SECTIONS 8.3 and
8.4).

         (g) Upon the appointment of a successor Delaware Trustee, such
successor Delaware Trustee shall file a Certificate of Amendment to the
Certificate of Trust in accordance with Section 3810 of the Delaware Statutory
Trust Act.

         SECTION 8.12. ACCEPTANCE OF APPOINTMENT BY SUCCESSOR.

         (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee, each
successor Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Depositor and to the retiring
Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation
or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective 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;
but, on request of the Trust or any successor Trustee such retiring Trustee



                                       48
<PAGE>

shall, upon payment of its charges, duly assign, transfer and deliver to such
successor Trustee all Trust Property, all proceeds thereof and money held by
such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities and the
Trust.

         (b) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Trust (or the
retiring Trustee if requested by the Depositor) shall execute any and all
instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such
successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in the
preceding paragraph.

         (c) 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 VIII.

         SECTION 8.13. MERGER, CONVERSION, CONSOLIDATION OR SUCCESSION TO
BUSINESS.

         Any Person into which the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee may
be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Trustee
shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all the
corporate trust business of such Trustee, shall be the successor of such Trustee
hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on
the part of any of the parties hereto, PROVIDED, that such Person shall be
otherwise qualified and eligible under this ARTICLE VIII.

         SECTION 8.14. NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR RECITALS OR ISSUANCE OF SECURITIES.

         The recitals contained herein and in the Securities Certificates shall
be taken as the statements of the Trust and the Depositor, and the Trustees do
not assume any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustees make no
representations as to the title to, or value or condition of, the property of
the Trust or any part thereof, nor as to the validity or sufficiency of this
Trust Agreement, the Notes or the Trust Securities. The Trustees shall not be
accountable for the use or application by the Depositor of the proceeds of the
Notes.

         SECTION 8.15. PROPERTY TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

time would become a Bankruptcy Event) relative to the Trust or any other obligor
upon the Trust Securities or the property of the Trust or of such other obligor
or their creditors, the Property Trustee (irrespective of whether any
Distributions on the Trust Securities shall then be due and payable and
irrespective of whether the Property Trustee shall have made any demand on the
Trust for the payment of any past due Distributions) shall be entitled and
empowered, to the fullest extent permitted by law, by intervention in such
proceeding or otherwise:

                  (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of any
         Distributions owing and unpaid in respect of the Trust Securities and
         to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable
         in order to have the claims of the Property Trustee (including any
         claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
         advances of the Property Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the
         Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and



                                       49
<PAGE>


                  (ii) to collect and receive any monies 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 proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Holder to make such payments to the Property Trustee and, in the event the
Property Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the
Holders, to pay to the Property Trustee first any amount due it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Property
Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Property Trustee.

         (b) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Property
Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder
any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or compensation affecting
the Trust Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the
Property Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such
proceeding.

         (a) The Depositor and the Administrative Trustees shall deliver to the
Property Trustee, not later than forty five (45) days after the end of each of
the first three fiscal quarters of the Depositor and not later than ninety (90)
days after the end of each fiscal year of the Trust ending after the date of
this Trust Agreement, an Officers' Certificate covering the preceding fiscal
year, stating whether or not to the knowledge of the signers thereof the
Depositor and the Trust are in default in the performance or observance of any
of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Trust Agreement (without regard
to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the
Depositor or the Trust shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the
nature and status thereof of which they have knowledge.

         (b) The Property Trustee shall obtain all reports, certificate and
information, which it is entitled to obtain under each of the Operative

                                       50
<PAGE>

                  (a) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event in respect of, or the
         dissolution or liquidation of, the Depositor, in its capacity as the
         Holder of the Common Securities, unless the Depositor shall have
         transferred the Common Securities as provided by SECTION 5.11, in which
         case this provision shall refer instead to any such successor Holder of
         the Common Securities;

                  (b) the written direction to the Property Trustee from the
         Holder of the Common Securities at any time to dissolve the Trust and,
         after satisfaction of any liabilities of the Trust as required by
         applicable law, to distribute the Notes to Holders in exchange for the
         Preferred Securities (which direction is optional and wholly within the
         discretion of the Holder of the Common Securities), PROVIDED, that the
         Holder of the Common Securities shall have received the prior approval
         of the Office of Thrift Supervision if then required;

                  (c) the redemption of all of the Preferred Securities in
         connection with the payment at maturity or redemption of all the Notes;

distributed hereunder upon the liquidation of the Trust pursuant to SECTION 9.4,
or upon the redemption of all of the Trust Securities pursuant to SECTION 4.2;
(b) the satisfaction of any expenses owed by the Trust; and (c) the discharge of
all administrative duties of the Administrative Trustees, including the
performance of any tax reporting obligations with respect to the Trust or the
Holders.

         SECTION 9.4. LIQUIDATION.

         (a) If an Early Termination Event specified in SECTION 9.2(A), (B) or
(D) occurs or upon the Expiration Date, the Trust shall be liquidated by the
Property Trustee as expeditiously as the Property Trustee shall determine to be
possible by distributing, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the
Trust as provided by applicable law, to each Holder a Like Amount of Notes,
subject to SECTION 9.4(D). Notice of liquidation shall be given by the Property
Trustee not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the
Liquidation Date to each Holder of Trust Securities at such Holder's address
appearing in the Securities Register. All such notices of liquidation shall:

                  (i) state the Liquidation Date;

                  (ii) state that from and after the Liquidation Date, the Trust
         Securities will no longer be deemed to be Outstanding and (subject to
         SECTION 9.4(D)) any Securities Certificates not surrendered for
         exchange will be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Notes; and



                                       51
<PAGE>

                  (iii) provide such information with respect to the mechanics
         by which Holders may exchange Securities Certificates for Notes, or if
         SECTION 9.4(D) applies, receive a Liquidation Distribution, as the
         Property Trustee shall deem appropriate.

         (b) Except where SECTION 9.2(C) or 9.4(D) applies, in order to effect
the liquidation of the Trust and distribution of the Notes to Holders, the
Property Trustee, either itself acting as exchange agent or through the
appointment of a separate exchange agent, shall establish a record date for such
distribution (which shall not be more than forty five (45) days prior to the
Liquidation Date nor prior to the date on which notice of such liquidation is
given to the Holders) and establish such procedures as it shall deem appropriate
to effect the distribution of Notes in exchange for the Outstanding Securities
Certificates.

         (c) Except where SECTION 9.2(C) or 9.4(D) applies, after the
Liquidation Date, (i) the Trust Securities will no longer be deemed to be
Outstanding, (ii) certificates representing a Like Amount of Notes will be
issued to Holders of Securities Certificates, upon surrender of such
Certificates to the exchange agent for exchange, (iii) the Depositor shall use
its best efforts to have the Notes listed on the New York Stock Exchange or on
such other exchange, interdealer quotation system or self-regulatory
organization on which the Preferred Securities are then listed, if any, (iv)
Securities Certificates not so surrendered for exchange will be deemed to
represent a Like Amount of Notes bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an
amount equal to the accumulated and unpaid Distributions on such Securities
Certificates until such certificates are so surrendered (and until such
certificates are so surrendered, no payments of interest or principal will be
made to Holders of Securities Certificates with respect to such Notes) and (v)
all rights of Holders holding Trust Securities will cease, except the right of
such Holders to receive Notes upon surrender of Securities Certificates.

         (d) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this SECTION 9.4, if
distribution of the Notes in the manner provided herein is determined by the
Property Trustee not to be permitted or practical, the Trust Property shall be
liquidated, and the Trust shall be wound up by the Property Trustee in such
manner as the Property Trustee determines. In such event, Holders will be
entitled to receive out of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to
Holders, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Trust as provided
by applicable law, an amount equal to the Liquidation Amount per Trust Security
plus accumulated and unpaid Distributions thereon to the date of payment (such
amount being the "LIQUIDATION DISTRIBUTION"). If, upon any such winding up the
Liquidation Distribution can be paid only in part because the Trust has
insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate Liquidation
Distribution, then, subject to the next succeeding sentence, the amounts payable
by the Trust on the Trust Securities shall be paid on a PRO RATA basis (based
upon Liquidation Amounts). The Holder of the Common Securities will be entitled
to receive Liquidation Distributions upon any such winding up PRO RATA (based
upon Liquidation Amounts) with Holders of all Trust Securities, except that, if
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Preferred Securities
shall have a priority over the Common Securities as provided in SECTION 4.3.

         SECTION 9.5. MERGERS, CONSOLIDATIONS, AMALGAMATIONS OR REPLACEMENTS OF
TRUST.

         The Trust may not merge with or into, consolidate, amalgamate, or be
replaced by, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety to, any Person except pursuant to this ARTICLE IX.



                                       52
<PAGE>

At the request of the Holders of the Common Securities, without the consent of
the Holders of the Preferred Securities, the Trust may merge with or into,
consolidate, amalgamate, or be replaced by or convey, transfer or lease its
properties and assets substantially as an entirety to a trust organized as such
under the laws of any State; PROVIDED, that:

                  (a) such successor entity either (i) expressly assumes all of
         the obligations of the Trust under this Trust Agreement with respect to
         the Preferred Securities or (ii) substitutes for the Preferred
         Securities other securities having substantially the same terms as the
         Preferred Securities (such other Securities, the "SUCCESSOR
         SECURITIES") so long as the Successor Securities have the same priority
         as the Preferred Securities with respect to distributions and payments
         upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise;

                  (b) a trustee of such successor entity possessing
         substantially the same powers and duties as the Property Trustee is
         appointed to hold the Notes;

                  (c) if the Preferred Securities or the Notes are rated, such
         merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer
         or lease does not cause the Preferred Securities or the Notes
         (including any Successor Securities) to be downgraded by any nationally
         recognized statistical rating organization that then assigns a rating
         to the Preferred Securities or the Notes;

                  (d) the Preferred Securities are listed, or any Successor
         Securities will be listed upon notice of issuance, on any national
         securities exchange or interdealer quotation system on which the
         Preferred Securities are then listed, if any;

                  (e) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement,
         conveyance, transfer or lease does not adversely affect the rights,
         preferences and privileges of the Holders of the Preferred Securities
         (including any Successor Securities) in any material respect;

                  (f) such successor entity has a purpose substantially
         identical to that of the Trust;

                  (g) prior to such merger, consolidation, amalgamation,
         replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, the Depositor has received
         an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (i) such merger,
         consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease
         does not adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the
         Holders of the Preferred Securities (including any Successor
         Securities) in any material respect; (ii) following such merger,
         consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or
         lease, neither the Trust nor such successor entity will be required to
         register as an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act
         and (iii) following such merger, consolidation, amalgamation,
         replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, the Trust (or the successor
         entity) will continue to be classified as a grantor trust for U.S.
         federal income tax purposes; and


                                       53
<PAGE>


                  (h) the Depositor or its permitted transferee owns all of the
         common securities of such successor entity and guarantees the
         obligations of such successor entity under the Successor Securities at
         least to the extent provided by the Guarantee Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust shall not, except with the consent of
Holders of all of the Preferred Securities, consolidate, amalgamate, merge with
or into, or be replaced by or convey, transfer or lease its properties and
assets substantially as an entirety to any other Person or permit any other
entity to consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or replace, the Trust if
such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, replacement, conveyance, transfer or
lease would cause the Trust or the successor entity to be taxable as a
corporation or classified as other than a grantor trust for United States
federal income tax purposes or cause the Notes to be treated as other than
indebtedness of the Depositor for United States federal income tax purposes.

                                   ARTICLE X.

                              [REVERSE OF SECURITY]

         The Trust promises to pay Distributions from December 10, 2002, or from
the most recent Distribution Date to which Distributions have been paid or duly
provided for, quarterly (subject to deferral as set forth herein) in arrears on
December 30, March 30, June 30 and September 30 of each year, commencing on
March 30, 2003, at a variable rate, reset quarterly, equal to LIBOR plus 3.35%
per annum of the Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities (such rate being
the rate of interest payable on the Notes); PROVIDED, THAT the applicable
interest rate shall not exceed 12% of the Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities represented by this Preferred Securities Certificate through the
Interest Payment Date in December 2007, together with any Additional Interest
Amounts, in respect to such period.

         Distributions on the Trust Securities shall be made by the Paying Agent
from the Payment Account and shall be payable on each Distribution Date only to
the extent that the Trust has funds then on hand and available in the Payment
Account for the payment of such Distributions.

         In the event (and to the extent) that the Depositor exercises its right
under the Indenture to defer the payment of interest on the Notes, Distributions
on the Preferred Securities shall be deferred.

         Under the Indenture, so long as no Note Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, the Depositor shall have the right, at any time and from time
to time during the term of the Notes, to defer the payment of interest on the
Notes for a period of up to twenty (20) consecutive quarterly interest payment
periods (each such extended interest payment period, an "Extension Period"),
during which Extension Period no interest shall be due and payable (except any
Additional Tax Sums that may be due and payable). No interest on the Notes shall
be due and payable during an Extension Period, except at the end thereof, but
each installment of interest that would otherwise have been due and payable
during such Extension Period shall bear Additional Interest (to the extent
payment of such interest would be legally enforceable) at a variable rate, reset
quarterly, equal to LIBOR plus 3.35% per annum; PROVIDED, THAT the applicable
interest rate shall not exceed 12% through the Interest Payment Date in December
2007, compounded quarterly, from the dates on which amounts would have otherwise
been due and payable until paid or until funds for the payment thereof have been
made available for payment. If Distributions are deferred, the deferred
Distributions (including Additional Interest Amounts) shall be paid on the date
that the related Extension Period terminates to Holders (as defined in the Trust
Agreement) of the Trust Securities as they appear on the books and records of
the Trust on the record date immediately preceding such termination date.

         Distributions on the Securities must be paid on the dates payable
(after giving effect to any Extension Period) to the extent that the Trust has
funds available for the payment of such Distributions in the Payment Account of
the Trust. The Trust's funds available for Distribution to the Holders of the
Preferred Securities will be limited to payments received from the Depositor.
The payment of Distributions out of moneys held by the Trust is guaranteed by

similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees,
officers, directors or consultants, (2) a dividend reinvestment or stockholder

or series of the Depositor's capital stock (or any capital stock of a Subsidiary

Rights Plan (as defined in the Indenture), the issuance of rights, stock or
other property under any Rights Plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights
pursuant thereto or (e) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or
other rights where the dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of
such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the
dividend is being paid or ranks PARI PASSU with or junior to such stock).

         On each Note Redemption Date, on the stated maturity (or any date of
principal repayment upon early maturity) of the Notes and on each other date on
(or in respect of) which any principal on the Notes is repaid, the Trust will be
required to redeem a Like Amount of Trust Securities at the Redemption Price.
Under the Indenture, the Notes may be redeemed by the Depositor on any Interest
Payment Date, at the Depositor's option, on or after December 30, 2007 in whole
or in part from time to time at a redemption price equal to one hundred percent
(100%) of the principal amount thereof or the redeemed portion thereof, as
applicable, together, in the case of any such redemption, with accrued interest,
including any Additional Interest, to but excluding the date fixed for
redemption; PROVIDED, that the Depositor shall have received the prior approval
of the Office of Thrift Supervision if then required. The Notes may also be
redeemed by the Depositor, at its option, at any time, in whole but not in part,
upon the occurrence of a Capital Disqualification Event, an Investment Company
Event or a Tax Event at the Indenture Redemption Price.

         The Trust Securities redeemed on each Redemption Date shall be redeemed
at the Redemption Price with the proceeds from the contemporaneous redemption or
payment at maturity of Notes. Redemptions of the Trust Securities (or portion
thereof) shall be made and the Redemption Price shall be payable on each
Redemption Date only to the extent that the Trust has funds then on hand and
available in the Payment Account for the payment of such Redemption Price.

         Payments of Distributions (including any Additional Interest Amounts),
the Redemption Price, Liquidation Amount or any other amounts in respect of the

Preferred Securities shall be made by wire transfer at such place and to such
account at a banking institution in the United States as may be designated in
writing at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date for payment by the
Person entitled thereto unless proper written transfer instructions have not
been received by the relevant record date, in which case such payments shall be
made by check mailed to the address of such Person as such address shall appear
in the Security Register. If any Preferred Securities are held by a Depositary,
such Distributions shall be made to the Depositary in immediately available
funds.

         The indebtedness evidenced by the Notes is, to the extent provided in
the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment
in full of all Senior Debt (as defined in the Indenture), and this Security is
issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto.

             Preferred Securities (The "Preferred Securities") of BBC Capital
             Trust VI
             -----------------------------------------------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:

                  In connection with our purchase of the Preferred Securities we
confirm that:

                  1. We understand that the Floating Rate Preferred Securities
(the "Preferred Securities") of BBC Capital Trust VI (the "Trust") (including
the guarantee (the "Guarantee") of BankAtlantic Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company")
executed in connection therewith) and the Floating Rate Junior Subordinated
Notes due 2032 of the Company (the "Subordinated Notes") (the Preferred
Securities, the Guarantee and the Subordinated Notes together being referred to
herein as the "Offered Securities"), have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and may not be
offered or sold except as permitted in the following sentence. We agree on our
own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing the
Offered Securities that, if we decide to offer, sell or otherwise transfer any
such Offered Securities, (i) such offer, sale or transfer will be made only (a)
to the Trust, (b) to a person we reasonably believe is a "qualified
institutional buyer" (a "QIB") (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act)
in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, (c) to an institutional
"accredited investor" within the meaning of subparagraph (a) (1), (2), (3) or
(7) of Rule 501 under the Securities Act that is acquiring Offered Securities
for its own account, or for the account of such an "accredited investor," for
investment purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection
with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act, (d) pursuant
to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or (e) pursuant
to an exemption from the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any
applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other
applicable jurisdiction and, in the case of (c) or (e), subject to the right of
the Trust and the depositor to require an opinion of counsel and other
information satisfactory to each of them. The foregoing restrictions on resale
will not apply subsequent to the date on which, in the written opinion of
counsel, the Preferred Securities are not "restricted securities" within the
meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. If any resale or other transfer of
the Offered Securities is proposed to be made pursuant to clause (c) or (d)
above, the transferor shall deliver a letter from the transferee substantially
in the form of this letter to the Property Trustee as Transfer Agent, which



                                      F-1
<PAGE>

shall provide as applicable, among other things, that the transferee is an
"accredited investor" within the meaning of subparagraph (a) (1), (2), (3) or
(7) of Rule 501 under the Securities Act that is acquiring such Securities for
investment purposes and not for distribution in violation of the Securities Act.
We acknowledge on our behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we
are purchasing Securities that the Trust and the Company reserve the right prior
to any offer, sale or other transfer pursuant to clause (c) or (d) to require
the delivery of any opinion of counsel, certifications and/or other information
satisfactory to the Trust and the Company. We understand that the certificates
for any Offered Security that we receive will bear a legend substantially to the
effect of the foregoing.

                  2. We are an "accredited investor" within the meaning of
subparagraph (a) (1), (2), (3) or (7) of Rule 501 under the Securities Act
purchasing for our own account or for the account of such an "accredited
investor," and we are acquiring the Offered Securities for investment purposes
and not with view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution
in violation of the Securities Act, and we have such knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of our investment in the Offered Securities, and we and any account for
which we are acting are each able to bear the economic risks of our or its
investment.

                  3. We are acquiring the Offered Securities purchased by us for
our own account (or for one or more accounts as to each of which we exercise
sole investment discretion and have authority to make, and do make, the
statements contained in this letter) and not with a view to any distribution of
the Offered Securities, subject, nevertheless, to the understanding that the
disposition of our property will at all times be and remain within our control.

                  4. In the event that we purchase any Preferred Securities or
any Subordinated Notes, we will acquire such Preferred Securities having an
aggregate stated liquidation amount of not less than $100,000 or such
Subordinated Notes having an aggregate principal amount not less than $100,000,
for our own account and for each separate account for which we are acting.

                  5. We acknowledge that we are not a fiduciary of (i) an
employee benefit, individual retirement account or other plan or arrangement
subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended ("ERISA"), or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code") (each a "Plan"); or (ii) an entity whose underlying assets
include "plan assets" by reason of any Plan's investment in the entity, and are
not purchasing any of the Offered Securities on behalf of or with "plan assets"
by reason of any Plan's investment in the entity.

                  6. We acknowledge that the Trust and the Company and others
will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgments,
representations, warranties and agreements and agree that if any of the
acknowledgments, representations, warranties and agreements deemed to have been
made by our purchase of any of the Offered Securities are no longer accurate, we
shall promptly notify the Company. If we are acquiring any Offered Securities as
a fiduciary or agent for one or more investor accounts, we represent that we
have sole discretion with respect to each such investor account and that we have
full power to make the foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreement
on behalf of each such investor account.

                             DETERMINATION OF LIBOR

         With respect to the Trust Securities, the London interbank offered rate
("LIBOR") shall be determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the
following provisions (in each case rounded to the nearest .000001%):

(1) On the second LIBOR Business Day (as defined below) prior to a Distribution
Date (each such day, a "LIBOR DETERMINATION DATE"), LIBOR for any given security
shall for the following interest payment period equal the rate, as obtained by
the Calculation Agent from Bloomberg Financial Markets Commodities News, for
three-month Eurodollar deposits that appears on Dow Jones Telerate Page 3750 (as
defined in the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. 1991
Interest Rate and Currency Exchange Definitions), or such other page as may
replace such Page 3750, as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such LIBOR
Determination Date.

(2) If, on any LIBOR Determination Date, such rate does not appear on Dow Jones
Telerate Page 3750 or such other page as may replace such Page 3750, the
Calculation Agent shall determine the arithmetic mean of the offered quotations
of the Reference Banks (as defined below) to leading banks in the London
interbank market for three-month Eurodollar deposits in an amount determined by
the Calculation Agent by reference to requests for quotations as of
approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the LIBOR Determination Date made by
the Calculation Agent to the Reference Banks. If, on any LIBOR Determination
Date, at least two of the Reference Banks provide such quotations, LIBOR shall
equal such arithmetic mean of such quotations. If, on any LIBOR Determination
Date, only one or none of the Reference Banks provide such quotations, LIBOR
shall be deemed to be the arithmetic mean of the offered quotations that leading
banks in the City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting on
the relevant LIBOR Determination Date for three-month Eurodollar deposits in an
amount determined by the Calculation Agent by reference to the principal London
offices of leading banks in the London interbank market; PROVIDED, that if the
Calculation Agent is required but is unable to determine a rate in accordance
with at least one of the procedures provided above, LIBOR shall be LIBOR as
determined on the previous LIBOR Determination Date.

(3) As used herein: "REFERENCE BANKS" means four major banks in the London
interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent; and "LIBOR BUSINESS DAY"
means a day on which commercial banks are open for business (including dealings
in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in London.
