Section 2.03      Execution and Authentication.

         An Officer must sign the Securities for the Company by manual or
facsimile signature.

         If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that
office at the time a Security is authenticated, the Security will nevertheless
be valid.

         A Security will not be valid until authenticated by the manual
signature of the Trustee. The signature will be conclusive evidence that the
Security has been authenticated under this Indenture.

         The Trustee shall at any time, and from time to time, authenticate
Securities of a Series for original issue in the principal amount provided in
the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officers' Certificate
described in Section 2.02 with respect to such Series upon receipt by the
Trustee of an Authentication Order. Such Authentication Order may authorize
authentication and delivery pursuant to oral or electronic instructions from the
Company or its duly authorized agent or agents, which oral instructions shall be
promptly confirmed in writing. Each Security shall be dated the date of its
authentication unless otherwise provided by the Board Resolution, supplemental
indenture hereto or Officers' Certificate described in Section 2.02 with respect
to such Series.

         The aggregate principal amount of Securities of any Series outstanding
at any time may not exceed any limit upon the maximum principal amount for such
Series set forth in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or
Officers' Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.02, except as provided in
Section 2.08.

         Prior to the issuance of Securities of any Series, the Trustee shall
have received and (subject to Section 7.02) shall be fully protected in relying
on: (a) the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officers'
Certificate establishing the form of the Securities of that Series or of
Securities within that Series and the terms of the Securities of that Series or
of Securities within that Series, (b) an Officers' Certificate complying with
Section 12.04, and (c) an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section 12.04.

         The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver
any Securities of such Series: (a) if the Trustee, being advised by counsel,
determines that such action may not lawfully be taken; or (b) if the Trustee in
good faith by its board of directors or trustees, executive committee or a trust
committee of directors and/or vice-presidents shall determine that such action
would expose the Trustee to personal liability to Holders of any then
outstanding Series of Securities.

         The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the
Company to authenticate Securities. An authenticating agent may authenticate
Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to
authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An
authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an
Affiliate of the Company.

Section 2.04      Registrar and Paying Agent.

         The Company will maintain with respect to each Series of Securities at
the place or places specified with respect to such Series pursuant to Section
2.02 an office or agency where Securities of such Series may be presented for
registration of transfer or for exchange ("Registrar") and an office or agency
where Securities of such Series may be presented for payment ("Paying Agent").
The Registrar will keep a register of the Securities of such Series and of their
transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one
or more additional paying agents. The term "Registrar" includes any co-registrar
and the term "Paying Agent" includes any additional paying agent. The Company
may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The
Company will notify the




                                       11
<PAGE>

Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this
Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as
Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of
its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

         If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required
Registrar, Paying Agent or Service Agent or shall fail to furnish the Trustee
with the name and address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and
demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and
the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

         The Company hereby appoints the Trustee as the initial Registrar,
Paying Agent and Service Agent for each Series unless another Registrar, Paying
Agent or Service Agent, as the case may be, is appointed prior to the time
Securities of that Series are first issued.

Section 2.05      Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

         The Company will require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to
agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of
Holders of any Series of Securities for which it is acting as Paying Agent, or
the Trustee, all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal,
premium, if any, or interest on such Series of Securities, and will notify the
Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such
default continues, the Trustee may require the Paying Agent to pay all money
held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to
pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the
Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) will have no further
liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it
will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders
of any Series of Securities for which it acts as Paying Agent all money held by
it as Paying Agent for such Series. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization
proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for
each Series of Securities.

Section 2.06      Holder Lists.

         The Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably
practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of
all Holders of each Series of Securities and shall otherwise comply with TIA ss.
312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company will furnish to the
Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at
such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and
as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses
of the Holders of each Series of Securities and the Company shall otherwise
comply with TIA ss. 312(a).

Section 2.07      Transfer and Exchange.

         Where Securities of a Series are presented to the Registrar or a
co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an
equal principal amount of Securities of the same Series, the Registrar shall
register the transfer or make the exchange if its requirements for such
transactions are met. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the
Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Registrar's request. No service
charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as
otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the Company may require payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable
in connection therewith (other than any such transfer tax or similar
governmental charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.11, 3.06 or
9.05).



                                       12
<PAGE>

         Neither the Company nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue,
register the transfer of, or exchange Securities of any Series for the period
beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the
mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of that Series selected for
redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or
(b) to register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any Series selected,
called or being called for redemption as a whole or the portion being redeemed
of any such Securities selected, called or being called for redemption in part.

Section 2.08      Replacement Securities.

         If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company
and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss
or theft of any Security, the Company will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt
of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Security of the same
Series if the Trustee's requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the
Company, an affidavit of loss and indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder
that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the
Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that
any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company may charge for its
expenses in replacing a Security.

         Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Company
and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with all other Securities of the same Series duly issued
hereunder.

Section 2.09      Outstanding Securities.

         The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities
authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to
it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Security
effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those
described in this Section 2.09 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in
Section 2.10 hereof, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the
Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security.

         If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 hereof, it ceases to
be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the
replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser.

         If the principal amount of any Security is considered paid under
Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to
accrue.

         If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an
Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money
sufficient to pay Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date
such Securities will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to
accrue interest.

         In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of
outstanding Securities have given any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent or waiver hereunder, the principal amount of a Discount Security
that shall be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes shall be the amount of
the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of such
determination upon a declaration of acceleration of the maturity thereof
pursuant to Section 6.02.

Section 2.10      Treasury Securities.

         In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of
Securities of a Series have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent,
Securities of such Series owned by the Company, or




                                       13
<PAGE>

by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under
direct or indirect common control with the Company, will be considered as though
not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee
will be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only
Securities of such Series that the Trustee knows are so owned will be so
disregarded.

Section 2.11      Temporary Securities.

         Until certificates representing Securities are ready for delivery, the
Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order,
will authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities will be
substantially in the form of certificated Securities but may have variations
that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities and as may be
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company
will prepare and the Trustee will authenticate definitive Securities of the same
Series and date of maturity in exchange for temporary Securities. After
preparation of such definitive Securities, the temporary Securities will be
exchangeable for such definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary
Securities.

         Holders of temporary Securities will be entitled to all of the benefits
of this Indenture.

Section 2.12      Cancellation.

         The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for
cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any
Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or
payment. The Trustee and no one else will cancel all Securities surrendered for
registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and
will destroy canceled Securities (subject to the record retention requirements
of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all canceled
Securities will be delivered to the Company. The Company may not issue new
Securities to replace Securities that it has paid or that have been delivered to
the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.13      Defaulted Interest.

         If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Securities of a
Series, it will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the
extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who
are Holders of the Securities of such Series on a subsequent special record
date, in each case at the rate provided in such Series of Securities and in
Section 4.01 hereof. The Company will notify the Trustee in writing of the
amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such Series
and the date of the proposed payment. The Company will fix or cause to be fixed
each such special record date and payment date, provided that no such special
record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such
defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company
(or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the
expense of the Company) will mail or cause to be mailed to Holders of Securities
of such Series a notice that states the special record date, the related payment
date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

Section 2.14      Global Securities.

         (a) Terms of Securities. A Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture
hereto or an Officers' Certificate shall establish whether the Securities of a
Series shall be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global
Securities and the Depositary for such Global Security or Securities.

         (b) Transfer and Exchange. Notwithstanding any provisions to the
contrary contained in Section 2.07 of the Indenture and in addition thereto, any
Global Security shall be exchangeable pursuant





                                       14
<PAGE>

to Section 2.7 of the Indenture for Securities of the Series with respect to
which such Global Security was issued registered in the names of Holders other
than the Depositary for such Security or its nominee only if (i) such Depositary
notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary
for such Global Security or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a
clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, the
Company fails to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days of such event,
(ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
to the effect that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable or (iii) an
Event of Default with respect to the Securities represented by such Global
Security shall have happened and be continuing. Any Global Security that is
exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for
Securities registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct in writing in
an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global
Security with like tenor and terms.

         Except as provided in this Section 2.14(b), a Global Security may not
be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary with respect to such Global
Security to a nominee of such Depositary, by a nominee of such Depositary to
such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by the Depositary or
any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such a successor
Depositary.

         (c) Legend. Any Global Security issued hereunder shall bear a legend in
substantially the following form:

             "This Security is a Global Security within the meaning of the
             Indenture hereinafter referred to and is registered in the name
             of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary. This Security
             is exchangeable for Securities registered in the name of a
             person other than the Depositary or its nominee only in
             the limited circumstances described in the Indenture, and may
             not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a
             nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to
             the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the
             Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a
             nominee of such a successor Depositary."

         (d) Acts of Holders. The Depositary, as a Holder, may appoint agents
and otherwise authorize participants to give or take any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action which a Holder
is entitled to give or take under the Indenture.

         (e) Payments. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture,
unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.02, payment of the
principal of and interest, if any, on any Global Security shall be made to the
Holder thereof.

         (f) Consents, Declaration and Directions. Except as provided in Section
2.14(e), the Company, the Trustee and any Agent shall treat a person as the
Holder of such principal amount of outstanding Securities of such Series
represented by a Global Security as shall be specified in a written statement of
the Depositary with respect to such Global Security, for purposes of obtaining
any consents, declarations, waivers or directions required to be given by the
Holders pursuant to this Indenture.

Section 2.15      CUSIP Numbers.

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





                                       15
<PAGE>

may be placed only on the other elements of identification printed on the
Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or
omission of such numbers.

                                   ARTICLE 3.
                            REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT

Section 3.01      Notices to Trustee.

         The Company may, with respect to any Series of Securities, reserve the
right to redeem and pay the Series of Securities or may covenant to redeem and
pay the Series of Securities or any part thereof prior to the Stated Maturity
thereof at such time and on such terms as provided for in such Securities or in
the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture or Officer's Certificate described
in Section 2.02 with respect to such Series. If a Series of Securities is
redeemable and the Company wants or is obligated to redeem prior to the Stated
Maturity thereof all or part of the Series of Securities pursuant to the terms
of such Securities, it must furnish to the Trustee, at least 30 days but not
more than 60 days before a redemption date, an Officers' Certificate setting
forth:

                  (1) the term of the applicable Series of Securities pursuant
         to which the redemption shall occur;

                  (2) the redemption date;

                  (3) the principal amount of Securities of such Series to be
         redeemed; and

                  (4) the redemption price.

Section 3.02      Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed or Purchased.

         Unless otherwise indicated for a particular Series by a Board
Resolution, a supplemental indenture or an Officers' Certificate, if less than
all of the Securities of a Series are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to
purchase at any time, the Trustee will select Securities of such Series for
redemption or purchase as follows:

                  (1) if the Securities of such Series are listed on any
         national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of
         the principal national securities exchange on which the Securities of
         such Series are listed; or

                  (2) if the Securities of such Series are not listed on any
         national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis (based on amounts
         tendered), by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and
         appropriate.

         In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the Securities
of a Series to be redeemed or purchased will be selected, unless otherwise
provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption
or purchase date by the Trustee from the outstanding Securities of such Series
not previously called for redemption or purchase.

         The Trustee will promptly notify the Company in writing of the
Securities selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Security
selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be
redeemed or purchased. Securities and portions of Securities selected will be in
amounts of the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that Series or
integral multiples thereof; except that if all of the Series of Securities of a
Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the




                                       16
<PAGE>

entire outstanding amount of such Securities held by such Holder, even if not an
integral multiple of the minimum authorized denomination, shall be redeemed or
purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this
Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption or purchase also apply
to portions of Securities called for redemption or purchase.

Section 3.03      Notice of Redemption.

         Unless otherwise indicated for a particular Series of Securities by a
Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture or an Officers' Certificate, at least
30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company will
mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each
Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed at its registered address, except
that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption
date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Securities
or a satisfaction and discharge of such Securities and this Indenture pursuant
to Articles 8 or 11 of this Indenture.

         The notice will identify the Securities of the Series to be redeemed
and will state:

                  (1) the redemption date;

                  (2) the redemption price;

                  (3) if any Security of the Series is being redeemed in part,
         the portion of the principal amount of such Security to be redeemed and
         that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Security, a new
         Security or Securities in principal amount equal to the unredeemed
         portion will be issued upon cancellation of the original Security;

                  (4) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

                  (5) that Securities of the Series called for redemption must
         be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

                  (6) that, unless the Company defaults in making such
         redemption payment, interest on Securities of the Series called for
         redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

                  (7) the Section of the Securities of the Series and/or Section
         of this Indenture applicable to such Series pursuant to which the
         Securities of the Series called for redemption are being redeemed; and

                  (8) that no representation is made as to the correctness or
         accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed
         on the Securities of the Series.

         At the Company's request, the Trustee will give the notice of
redemption in the Company's name and at its expense; provided, however, that the
Company has delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the redemption
date, an Officers' Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and
setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the
preceding paragraph.



                                       17
<PAGE>

Section 3.04      Effect of Notice of Redemption.

         Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03
hereof, Securities of a Series called for redemption become irrevocably due and
payable on the redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption
may not be conditional.

Section 3.05      Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price.

         Prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the relevant redemption or
purchase date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying
Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued
interest, if any, on all Securities to be redeemed or purchased on that date.
The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Company any money
deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the
amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued
interest, if any, on, all Securities to be redeemed or purchased.

         If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph,
on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest will cease to accrue on
the Securities or the portions of Securities called for redemption or purchase.
If a Security is redeemed or purchased on or after an interest record date but
on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid
interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Security was registered
at the close of business on such record date. If any Security called for
redemption or purchase is not so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase
because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph,
interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase
date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not
paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the
Securities and in Section 4.01 hereof.

Section 3.06      Securities Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

         Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed or purchased in part, the
Company will issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee
will authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Company a new Security of
the same Series equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased
portion of the Security surrendered.

                                   ARTICLE 4.
                                    COVENANTS

Section 4.01      Payment of Securities.

         The Company will pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if
any, and interest, on each Series of Securities on the dates and in the manner
provided for the Securities of such Series by the Board Resolution, supplemental
indenture or Officer's Certificate establishing the terms of such Series.
Principal, premium, if any, and interest will be considered paid on the date due
if the Paying Agent, if other than the Company or a Subsidiary thereof, holds as
of 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the due date money deposited by the Company in
immediately available funds in U.S. Legal Tender and designated for and
sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due. If the
Company or Subsidiary is acting as Paying Agent, the Company shall, prior to
10:00 a.m. New York City time on the due date, segregate and hold in trust U.S.
Legal Tender sufficient to make payments of principal, premium and interest due
on such date.



                                       18
<PAGE>

         Unless otherwise indicated for a Series of Securities in the Board
Resolution, supplemental indenture or Officer's Certificate described in Section
2.02, the Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal, and on overdue
installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period), at the
rate equal to 1% per annum in excess of the then applicable interest rate on
each Series of Securities to the extent lawful. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Indenture, the Company may, to the extent it is
required to do so by law, deduct or withhold income or other similar taxes
imposed by the United States of America from principal or interest payments
hereunder.

Section 4.02      Maintenance of Office or Agency.

         The Company will maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New
York, an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee, being U.S.
Bank National Association, located at 100 Wall Street, Suite 1600, New York, New
York 10005, or an affiliate of the Trustee, Registrar or co-registrar) where
Securities of each Series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for
exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of
Securities of each Series and this Indenture may be served. The Company will
give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the
location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company fails to maintain
any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Trustee with the
address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made
or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

         The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other
offices or agencies where the Securities of each Series may be presented or
surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such
designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission will in
any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency
in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York for such purposes. The Company
will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or
rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

         The Company hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee
as one such office or agency of the Company in accordance with Section 2.04
hereof.

Section 4.03      Reports.

         (a) Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, so
long as Securities of any Series are outstanding, the Company will file a copy
of all of the information and reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) below
with the SEC for public availability within the time periods specified in the
SEC's rules and regulations:

                  (1) all quarterly and annual financial information that would
         be required to be contained in a filing with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and
         10-K if the Company were required to file such forms, and, with respect
         to the annual information only, a report thereon by the Company's
         certified independent accountants; and

                  (2) all current reports that would be required to be filed
         with the SEC on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file such
         reports.

If the SEC will not accept a filing referred to above, then the Company will
furnish such information and reports to the Trustee and Holders within 15 days
of the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and regulations, and make such
information available to prospective investors upon request. The Company will at
all times comply with TIA ss. 314(a).



                                       19
<PAGE>

         (b) The Trustee shall not be under a duty to review or evaluate any
report or information delivered to the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of
this Section 4.03 for the purposes of making such reports available to it and to
the Holders of Securities of any Series who may request such information.
Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee as may be
required under this Section 4.03 is for informational purposes only and the
Trustee's receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any
information contained therein or determinable from information contained
therein, including the Company's compliance with any of its covenants hereunder
(as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers'
Certificates).

Section 4.04      Compliance Certificate.

         (a) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the
end of each fiscal year, an Officers' Certificate stating that a review of the
activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year
has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to
determining whether the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its
obligations under this Indenture and further stating, as to each such Officer
signing such certificate, that to his or her knowledge after due inquiry the
Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant
contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or
observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or,
if a Default or Event of Default has occurred, describing all such Defaults or
Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the
Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto) and that to his or
her knowledge after due inquiry no event has occurred and remains in existence
by reason of which payments on account of the principal of or interest, if any,
on the Securities of any Series is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a
description of the event and what action the Company is taking or proposes to
take with respect thereto.

         (b) So long as any of the Securities of any Series are outstanding, the
Company will deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer becoming aware
of any Default or Event of Default, an Officers' Certificate specifying such
Default or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to
take with respect thereto.

Section 4.05      Taxes.

         The Company will pay, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay,
prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental levies
except such as are contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings or
where the failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect
to the Holders of the Securities of any Series.

Section 4.06      Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.

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

Section 4.07      Corporate Existence.

         Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done
all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect:

                  (1) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or
         other existence of each of its Subsidiaries, in accordance with the
         respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from
         time to time) of the Company or any such Subsidiary; and

                  (2) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and
         franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that
         the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license
         or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any
         of its Subsidiaries, if the Board of Directors shall determine that the
         preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the
         business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and
         that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the
         Holders of the Securities of any Series.

                                   ARTICLE 5.
                                   SUCCESSORS

Section 5.01      Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets.

         The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into, or convey,
transfer or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets to, any
Person (a "Successor Person"), and may not permit any Person to merge into, or
convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety
to, the Company, unless:

                  (1) the Successor Person (if any) is a corporation,
         partnership, trust or other entity organized and validly existing under
         the laws of any U.S. domestic jurisdiction and expressly assumes the
         Company's obligations on the Securities and under this Indenture and

                  (2) immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no
         Default or Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing.

         The Company shall deliver to the Trustee prior to the consummation of
the proposed transaction an Officers' Certificate to the foregoing effect and an
Opinion of Counsel stating that the proposed transaction and such supplemental
indenture comply with this Indenture.

Section 5.02      Successor Person Substituted.

         Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer,
lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the
provisions of, Section 5.01 hereof, the Successor Person formed by such
consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged or to which such sale,
assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall
succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such
consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the
provisions of this Indenture referring to the "Company" shall refer instead to
the Successor Person and not to the Company), and may exercise every right and
power of the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such
Successor Person had been named as the Company herein; provided, however, that
the





                                       21
<PAGE>

predecessor Company shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the
principal of and interest on the Securities except in the case of a sale of all
of the Company's assets in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies
with the provisions of, Section 5.01 hereof.

                                   ARTICLE 6.
                              DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

Section 6.01      Events of Default.

         "Event of Default," wherever used herein with respect to Securities of
any Series, means any one of the following events, subject to any modifications,
deletions or additions relating to any Series of Securities, as provided in the
establishing Board Resolution, supplemental indenture or Officers' Certificate
for such Series:

                  (1) the Company defaults for 30 days in the payment when due
         of interest on, any Security of that Series;

                  (2) the Company defaults in the payment when due (at maturity,
         upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any,
         on any Security of that Series;

                  (3) the Company fails to observe or perform any covenant,
         representation, warranty or other agreement in this Indenture (other
         than a covenant or warranty that has been included in this Indenture
         solely for the benefit of Series of Securities other than that Series)
         or the Securities of that Series for 60 consecutive days after notice
         to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of Securities of that
         Series of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of such Securities
         then outstanding voting as a single class;

                  (4) a default occurs under any mortgage, indenture or
         instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be
         secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company
         or any of its Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by
         the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or
         guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of this Indenture,
         if that default:

                           (A) is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or
                  interest or premium, if any, on such Indebtedness prior to the
                  expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness
                  on the date of such default (a "Payment Default"); or

                           (B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness
                  prior to its express maturity,

         and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness,
         together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under
         which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has
         been so accelerated, aggregates $25.0 million or more, provided that
         any default described in clause (A) or (B) above on the MDP Notes shall
         not constitute an Event of Default pursuant to this clause (4) so long
         as the Company cures such default within 30 days of a final judgment by
         a court of competent jurisdiction that such default on the MDP Notes
         exists or that any alleged unpaid principal or interest on the MDP
         Notes is due and owing, which judgment is not stayed, paid or
         discharged within such 30 day period;

                  (5) the Company or any Subsidiary that is a Significant
         Subsidiary or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would
         constitute a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning
         of Bankruptcy Law:

                           (A) commences a voluntary case,

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

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

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

                           (E) generally is not paying its debts as they become
                  due; or

                  (6) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or
         decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

                           (A) is for relief against the Company or any of its
                  Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that,
                  taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in
                  an involuntary case;

                           (B) appoints a custodian of the Company or any of its
                  Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that,
                  taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or
                  for all or substantially all of the property of the Company or
                  any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of
                  Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a
                  Significant Subsidiary; or

                           (C) orders the liquidation of the Company or any of
                  its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries
                  that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant
                  Subsidiary;

         and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60
         consecutive days; or

                  (7) any other Event of Default with respect to Securities of
         that Series, which is specified in a Board Resolution, a supplemental
         indenture hereto or an Officers' Certificate, in accordance with
         Section 2.02(s).

Section 6.02      Acceleration.

         In the case of an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any
Series at the time outstanding specified in clause (5) or (6) of Section 6.01
hereof, with respect to the Company, any Subsidiary that is a Significant
Subsidiary or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute
a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Securities of such Series shall become
due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event
of Default with respect to Securities of any Series at the time outstanding
occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of such Series may declare
all the Securities of such Series to be due and payable immediately.



                                       23
<PAGE>

         Upon any such declaration, the Securities of such Series shall become
due and payable immediately. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the then outstanding Securities of such Series by written notice to
the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders of Securities of such Series
rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not
conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default with
respect to Securities of such Series (except nonpayment of principal, interest
or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been
cured or waived.

Section 6.03      Other Remedies.

         If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any Series occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the
payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of such
Series or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities of such
Series or this Indenture.

         The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any
of the Securities of such Series or does not produce any of them in the
proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Security of
any Series in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default
with respect to Securities of such Series shall not impair the right or remedy
or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in such Event of Default. All remedies
are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.04      Waiver of Past Defaults.

         Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the then outstanding Securities of a Series by notice to the Trustee may on
behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities of such Series waive an existing
Default or Event of Default with respect to such Series and its consequences
hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the Securities of such Series
(including in connection with any offer to purchase); provided, however, that
the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
Securities of such Series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences,
including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon
any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default
arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this
Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or
impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.05      Control by Majority.

         Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding
Securities of a Series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any
trust or power conferred on it with respect to the Securities of such Series.
However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law
or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the
rights of other Holders of Securities of such Series or that may involve the
Trustee in personal liability. The Trustee shall be entitled to take any other
action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such
direction or this Indenture.

Section 6.06      Limitation on Suits.

         A Holder of a Security of any Series may pursue a remedy with respect
to this Indenture or the Securities of that Series only if:



                                       24
<PAGE>

                  (1) such Holder of a Security of that Series has previously
         given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default
         with respect to Securities of that Series;

                  (2) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the
         then outstanding Securities of that Series make a written request to
         the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

                  (3) such Holder of a Security of that Series or Holders of
         Securities of that Series offer and, if requested, provide to the
         Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss,
         liability or expense;

                  (4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60
         days after receipt of the request and the offer and, if requested, the
         provision of indemnity; and

                  (5) during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in
         principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of that Series do
         not give the Trustee a written direction inconsistent with the request.

         A Holder of a Security may not use this Indenture to prejudice the
rights of another Holder of a Security of the same Series or to obtain a
preference or priority over another Holder of a Security of the same Series.

Section 6.07      Rights of Holders of Securities to Receive Payment.

         Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any
Holder of a Security of any Series to receive payment of principal, premium, if
any, and interest on a Security of that Series, on or after the respective due
dates expressed in the Security of that Series (including in connection with an
offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on
or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the
consent of such Holder.

Section 6.08      Collection Suit by Trustee.

         If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any Series
specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is
authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any,
and interest remaining unpaid on the Securities of that Series and interest on
overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as
shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel.

Section 6.09      Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

         The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers
or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the
Holders of the Securities of any Series allowed in any judicial proceedings
relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of any
Series), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to
collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding
is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in
the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly
to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To
the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other




                                       25
<PAGE>

amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such
proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured
by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends,
money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to
receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of
reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be
deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on
behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition affecting the Securities of any Series or the rights of any Holder,
or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any
such proceeding.

Section 6.10      Priorities.

         If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall
pay out the money in the following order:

                  First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts
         due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation,
         expense and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee
         and the costs and expenses of collection;

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

                  Third: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent
         jurisdiction shall direct.

         The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to
Holders of Securities pursuant to this Section 6.10.

Section 6.11      Undertaking for Costs.

         In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this
Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by
it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party
litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the
court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to
the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant.
This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of
a Security pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than
10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any Series.

                                   ARTICLE 7.
                                     TRUSTEE

Section 7.01      Duties of Trustee.

         (a) If an Event of Default with respect to any Series of Securities has
occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will exercise such of the rights and
powers vested in it by this 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.



                                       26
<PAGE>

         (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect
to any Series of Securities:

                  (1) the duties of the Trustee will be determined solely by the
         express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only
         those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no
         others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
         Indenture against the Trustee; and

                  (2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may
         conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
         correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or
         opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
         this Indenture. However, in the case of any such certificates or
         opinions which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be
         furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee will examine the certificates and
         opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements
         of this Indenture.

         (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own
negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful
misconduct, except that:

                  (1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b)
         of this Section 7.01;

                  (2) the Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment
         made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that
         the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

                  (3) the Trustee will not be liable with respect to any action
         it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
         received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof.

         (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of
this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs
(a), (b), and (c) of this Section 7.01.

         (e) No provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend
or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee will be under no
obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the
request of any Holders of a Series of Securities, unless such Holders have
offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any
loss, liability or expense.

         (f) The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received
by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company. Money held in
trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required by law.

Section 7.02      Rights of Trustee.

         (a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it
to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The
Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

         (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an
Officers' Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee will not be
liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on
such Officers' Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with
counsel and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel will be
full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any
action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance
thereon.



                                       27
<PAGE>

         (c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and will not
be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due
care.

powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

         (e) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any
demand, request, direction or notice from the Company will be sufficient if
signed by an Officer of the Company.

         (f) The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the
rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of
any of the Holders of a Series of Securities unless such Holders have offered to
the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and
liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or
direction.

         (g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or
Event of Default with respect to any Series of Securities unless a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of
any event which is in fact such a Default or Event of Default is received by the
Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references
the Series Securities governed by this Indenture with respect to which such
Default or Event of Default relates.

         (h) The rights, privileges, immunities and benefits given to the
Trustee hereunder, including without limitation, its right to be indemnified,
are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its
capacities hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and other Person employed by
the Trustee consistent with the terms of this Indenture to act hereunder.

         (i) Any permissive right or authority granted to the Trustee shall not
be construed as a mandatory duty.

Section 7.03      Individual Rights of Trustee.

         The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the
owner or pledgee of Securities of any Series and may otherwise deal with the
Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it
were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any
conflicting interest, as described in the TIA, it must eliminate such conflict
within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee or
resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is
also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.

Section 7.04      Trustee's Disclaimer.

         The Trustee will not be responsible for and makes no representation as
to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities of any Series,
it shall not be accountable for the Company's use of the proceeds from the
Securities of any Series or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company's
direction under any provision of this Indenture, it will not be responsible for
the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the
Trustee, and it will not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or
any statement in the Securities of any Series or any other document in
connection with the sale of the Securities of any Series or pursuant to this
Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

Section 7.05      Notice of Defaults.

         If a Default or Event of Default with respect to any Series of
Securities of such Series occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the
Trustee, the Trustee will mail to Holders of Securities of such Series a notice
of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the
case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if
any, or interest on a Security of any Series, the Trustee may withhold the
notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith
determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the
Securities of such Series.

Section 7.06      Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Securities.

         (a) Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15
following the date of this Indenture, and for so long as Securities of any
Series remain outstanding, the Trustee will mail to the Holders of the
Securities of such Series a brief report dated as of such reporting date that
complies with TIA ss. 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA ss. 313(a) has
occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need
be transmitted). The Trustee also will comply with TIA ss. 313(b)(2). The
Trustee will also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA ss. 313(c).

         (b) A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of
Securities of any Series will be mailed by the Trustee to the Company and filed
by the Trustee with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Securities of
such Series are listed in accordance with TIA ss. 313(d). The Company will
promptly notify the Trustee when the Securities of any Series are listed on any
stock exchange.

Section 7.07      Compensation and Indemnity.

         (a) The Company will pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable
compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as the
Company and Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing. The Trustee's
compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an
express trust. The Company will reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for
all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in
addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses will include the
reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee's agents and
counsel.

         (b) The Company shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses,
liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the
acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the
costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company (including
this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by
the Company or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with
the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to
the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its
negligence or bad faith or willful misconduct. The Trustee will notify the
Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the
Trustee to so notify the Company will not relieve the Company of its obligations
hereunder. The Company will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in
the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company will pay the
reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any
settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably
withheld.

         (c) The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.07 will survive
the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.



                                       29
<PAGE>

         (d) To secure the Company's payment obligations in this Section 7.07,
the Trustee will have a Lien prior to the Securities of each Series on all money
or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay
principal and interest on particular Securities of a Series. Such Lien will
survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

         (e) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event
of Default specified in Section 6.01(5) or (6) hereof occurs, the expenses and
the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents
and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any
Bankruptcy Law.

         (f) The Trustee will comply with the provisions of TIA ss. 313(b)(2) to
the extent applicable.

Section 7.08      Replacement of Trustee.

         (a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more Series will
become effective only upon the successor Trustee's acceptance of appointment as
provided in this Section 7.08.

         (b) The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged
from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of a Series may
remove the Trustee with respect to such Series by so notifying the Trustee and
the Company in writing. The Company may remove the Trustee with respect to the
Securities of one or more Series if:

                  (1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof;

                  (2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an
         order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any
         Bankruptcy Law;

                  (3) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee
         or its property; or

                  (4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

         (c) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the
office of Trustee for any reason with respect to the Securities of one or more
Series, the Company will promptly appoint a successor Trustee with respect to
the Securities of that or those Series (it being understood that any such
successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more
or all of such Series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with
respect to the Securities of any Series). Within one year after a successor
Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then
outstanding Securities of a Series may appoint a successor Trustee with respect
to such Series to replace the successor Trustee for such Series appointed by the
Company.

         (d) If a successor Trustee for a Series does not take office within 60
days after the retiring Trustee for such Series resigns or is removed, the
retiring Trustee, the Company, or the Holders of at least 10% in principal
amount of the then outstanding Securities of such Series may petition any court
of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with
respect to such Series.

         (e) If the Trustee for a Series, after written request by any Holder of
Securities of such Series who has been a Holder of Securities of such Series for
at least six months, fails with respect to such Series to comply with Section
7.10, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
removal of the Trustee for such Series and the appointment of a successor
Trustee for such Series.



                                       30
<PAGE>

         (f) A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the
successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee
under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will mail a notice of its succession
to Holders of each Series of Securities for which it acts as Trustee. The
retiring Trustee will promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to
the successor Trustee, provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have
been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof.
Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the
Company's obligations under Section 7.07 hereof will continue for the benefit of
the retiring Trustee.

Section 7.09      Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.

         If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all
or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation,
the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Trustee.

Section 7.10      Eligibility; Disqualification.

         There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation
organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or
of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100 million
as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

         This Indenture will always have a Trustee who satisfies the
requirements of TIA ss. 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA
ss. 310(b).

Section 7.11      Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

         The Trustee is subject to TIA ss. 311(a), excluding any creditor
relationship listed in TIA ss. 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been
removed shall be subject to TIA ss. 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

                                   ARTICLE 8.
                    LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 8.01      Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

         If, pursuant to Section 2.02, provision is made for either or both of
(a) defeasance of the Securities of or within a Series under Section 8.02 or (b)
covenant defeasance of the Securities of or within a Series under Section 8.03
to be applicable to the Securities of a Series, then the provisions of such
Section or Sections, as the case may be, together with the other provisions of
this Article (with such modifications thereto as may be specified pursuant to
Section 2.02 with respect to the Securities of such Series), shall be applicable
to the Securities of such Series, and the Company may, at the option of the
Board of Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officers'
Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be
applied to all outstanding Securities of such Series upon compliance with the
conditions set forth below in this Article 8.



                                       31

Section 8.02      Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

         Upon the Company's exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction
of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been
discharged from its obligations with respect to all outstanding Securities of a
Series on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied with respect to
the Securities of such Series (hereinafter, "Legal Defeasance"). For this
purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company will be deemed to have paid and
discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Securities of
such Series, which will thereafter be deemed to be "outstanding" only for the
purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture
referred to in clauses (1) and (2) below, and to have satisfied all their other
obligations under the Securities of such Series and this Indenture (and the
Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which
will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

                  (1) the rights of Holders of outstanding Securities of such
         Series to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest
         or premium, if any, on such Securities when such payments are due from
         the trust referred to in Section 8.04 hereof;

                  (2) the Company's obligations with respect to the Securities
         of such Series under Article 2 and Section 4.02 hereof;

                  (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the
         Trustee hereunder and the Company's obligations in connection
         therewith; and

                  (4) this Article 8.

         Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its
option under this Section 8.02 with respect to Securities of a Series
notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof with
respect to Securities of such Series.

Section 8.03      Covenant Defeasance.

         Upon the Company's exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction
of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from each of
their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.3 and 4.4, as well
as any additional covenants contained in a supplemental indenture hereto for a
particular Series of Securities, with respect to the outstanding Securities of a
Series on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are
satisfied (hereinafter, "Covenant Defeasance"), and the Securities of such
Series shall thereafter be deemed not "outstanding" for the purposes of any
direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders of Securities of
such Series (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such
covenants, but will continue to be deemed "outstanding" for all other purposes
hereunder (it being understood that the Securities of such Series will not be
deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant
Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Securities of such
Series, the Company may omit to comply with and will have no liability in
respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant,
whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to
any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any
other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will
not constitute a Default or an Event of Default with respect to Securities of
such Series under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the
remainder of this Indenture and the Securities of such Series will be unaffected
thereby. In addition, upon the Company's exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of
the




                                       32
<PAGE>

option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(3) through
6.01(5) hereof will not constitute Events of Default.

Section 8.04      Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

         In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance
under either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof:

                  (1) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in
         trust, for the benefit of the Holders of Securities of a Series, cash
         in such currency, currencies or currency units in which such Securities
         are then specified as payable at Stated Maturity, non-callable
         Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as
         will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
         independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium, if
         any, and interest on the outstanding Securities of such Series on the
         stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date,
         as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Securities
         of such Series are being defeased to maturity or to a particular
         redemption date;

                  (2) in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the
         Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the
         United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that:

                           (A) the Company has received from, or there has been
                  published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or

                           (B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been
                  a change in the applicable federal income tax law,

                  in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such
                  Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the
                  outstanding Securities of such Series will not recognize
                  income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a
                  result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal
                  income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the
                  same times as would have been the case if such Legal
                  Defeasance had not occurred;

                  (3) in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the
         Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United
         States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders
         of the outstanding Securities of such Series will not recognize income,
         gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such
         Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the
         same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have
         been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

                  (4) no Default or Event of Default with respect to Securities
         of such Series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of
         such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default with respect to
         Securities of such Series resulting from the borrowing of funds to be
         applied to such deposit);

                  (5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not
         result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any
         material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) with
         respect to such Securities to which the Company or any of its
         Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its
         Subsidiaries is bound;



                                       33
<PAGE>

                  (6) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
         Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with
         the intent of preferring the Holders of Securities of such Series over
         the other creditors of the Company or with the intent of defeating,
         hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Company or
         others; and

                  (7) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
         Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
         precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the
         Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

Section 8.05      Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust;
Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

         Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and non-callable Government
Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other
qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the
"Trustee") pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding
Securities of a Series will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in
accordance with the provisions of the Securities of such Series and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to
the Holders of the Securities of such Series of all sums due and to become due
thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money
need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

         The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or
other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government
Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and
interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other
charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of an outstanding Series
of Securities.

         Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee
will deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the
Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided
in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section
8.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required
to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.06      Repayment to Company.

         Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held
by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any,
or interest on any Series of Securities and remaining unclaimed for two years
after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable
shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company)
will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of Security of such Series
will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof,
and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust
money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, will thereupon
cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being
required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to
be published once, in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national
edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date
specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such
notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining
will be repaid to the Company.

Section 8.07      Reinstatement.

         If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States
dollars or other currency or non-callable Government Securities in accordance
with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or
judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or
otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company's obligations under
this Indenture and each applicable Series of Securities will be revived and
reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03
hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all
such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be;
provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on any Series of Securities following the
reinstatement of its obligations, the Company will be subrogated to the rights
of the Holders of such Series of Securities to receive such payment from the
money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

                                   ARTICLE 9.
                        AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

Section 9.01      Without Consent of Holders of Securities.

         Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Company and the
Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or any Series of Securities
without the consent of any Holder of Securities:

                  (1) to evidence the succession of another Person to the
         Company or a Guarantor and the assumption by any such successor of the
         covenants of the Company or such Guarantor herein, in any Security
         Guarantee and in the Securities contained; provided that such
         succession is otherwise in compliance with this Indenture and
         applicable law;

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

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

         as permitted by Sections 2.01 and 2.02, including the provisions and
         procedures relating to Securities convertible into or exchangeable for
         other securities or property of the Company;

                  (8) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment
         hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one
         or more Series and to add or change any of the provisions of the
         Indenture or any Guarantee as shall be reasonable and necessary solely
         to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder
         by more than one Trustee; provided that such succession is otherwise in
         compliance with this Indenture and applicable law;

                  (9) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;

                  (10) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to
         or in place of certificated Securities or to alter the provisions of
         Article 2 hereof (including the related definitions) in a manner that
         does not materially adversely affect any Holder of any Series of
         Securities;

                  (11) to provide for the assumption of the Company's
         obligations to the Holders of each Series of Securities by a successor
         to the Company pursuant to Article 5 hereof;

                  (12) to make any change that would provide any additional
         rights or benefits to the Holders of each Series of Securities or that
         does not adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any Holder of
         any Series of Securities; or

                  (13) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect
         or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA.

         Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of the
Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental
Indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section
7.02 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company in the execution of any
amended or supplemental Indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this
Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that
may be therein contained, but the Trustee will not be obligated to enter into
such amended or supplemental Indenture that affects its own rights, duties or
immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 9.02      With Consent of Holders of Securities.

         Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company and the
Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture and the Securities of an affected
Series with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal
amount of the Securities of such affected Series then outstanding, voting as a
separate class, (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection
with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Securities of
each affected Series). Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing
Default or Event of Default with respect to a Series of Securities (other than a
Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any,
or interest on the Securities of such Series, except a payment default resulting
from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision
of this Indenture or the Securities of such Series may be waived with



                                       36
<PAGE>

the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then
outstanding Securities of such Series voting as a single class (including
consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or
purchase of, the Securities of such Series). Section 2.08 hereof shall determine
which Securities are considered to be "outstanding" for purposes of this
Section 9.02.

         Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a Board Resolution
authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental Indenture, and
upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the
consent of the Holders of Securities of each required Series as aforesaid, and
upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof,
the Trustee will join with the Company in the execution of such amended or
supplemental Indenture unless such amended or supplemental Indenture directly
affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or
otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be
obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture.

         It is not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Securities of
any Series under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any
proposed amendment or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the
substance thereof.

         After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02
becomes effective, the Company will mail to the Holders of Securities of each
Series affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or
waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein,
will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended
or supplemental Indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof,
the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any
Series then outstanding voting as a single class may waive compliance in a
particular instance by the Company with any provision of this Indenture with
respect to such Series or such Series of Securities. However, without the
consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.02
may not (with respect to any Securities held by a non-consenting Holder):

                  (1) reduce the principal amount of Securities whose Holders
         must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

                  (2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of
         any Security or alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to
         the redemption of the Securities;

                  (3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of
         interest, including default interest, on any Security;

                  (4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of
         principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any Securities (except
         a rescission of acceleration of the Securities of any Series by the
         Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
         then outstanding Securities of such Series and a waiver of the payment
         default that resulted from such acceleration);

                  (5) make any Security payable in currency other than that
         stated in the Securities;

                  (6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture
         relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of
         Securities to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium,
         if any, on the Securities;



                                       37
<PAGE>

                  (7) waive a redemption payment, if any, with respect to any
         Securities or change any of the provisions with respect to the
         redemption of any Securities; or

                  (8) make any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver
         provisions.

Section 9.03      Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.

         Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Securities will
be set forth in a amended or supplemental Indenture that complies with the TIA
as then in effect.

Section 9.04      Revocation and Effect of Consents.

         Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent
to it by a Holder of a Security is a continuing consent by the Holder of a
Security and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that
evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Security, even if notation of
the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such Holder of a Security
or subsequent Holder of a Security may revoke the consent as to its Security if
the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver,
supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver
becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every
Holder.

Section 9.05      Notation on or Exchange of Securities.

         The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment,
supplement or waiver on any Security thereafter authenticated. If the Company so
determines, the Company in exchange for all Securities of a Series may issue and
the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new
Securities of such Series that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

         Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Security will
not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.06      Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

         The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental Indenture authorized
pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely
affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Company
may not sign an amendment or supplemental Indenture until the Board of Directors
approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee
will be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) will be fully
protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section
12.04 hereof, an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that
the execution of such amended or supplemental Indenture is authorized or
permitted by this Indenture.

                                  ARTICLE 10.
                                   GUARANTEES

Section 10.01     Guarantees.

         (a) If, pursuant to Section 2.02, provision is made for the Guarantee
of the Securities of a Series, then subject to this Article 10, each of the
Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each
Holder of a Security of such Series authenticated and delivered by the Trustee
and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity
and enforceability of




                                       38
<PAGE>

this Indenture, the Securities of such Series or the obligations of the Company
hereunder or thereunder, that:

                  (1) the principal of, premium, and interest on such Securities
         will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by
         acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue
         principal of and interest on such Securities, if any, if lawful, and
         all other obligations of the Company to the Holders of Securities of
         such Series or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly
         paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and
         thereof; and

                  (2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of
         any such Securities or any of such other obligations, that same will be
         promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the
         terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by
         acceleration or otherwise.

         Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance
so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally
obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a
guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

         (b) The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are
unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the
Securities or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any
waiver or consent by any Holder of the Securities with respect to any provisions
hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action
to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a
legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby
waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court
in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a
proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever
and covenant that the Security Guarantee will not be discharged except by
complete performance of the obligations contained in such Securities and this
Indenture.

         (c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise
to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator
or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the
Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, the
Security Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in
full force and effect.

         (d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of
subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed
hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each
Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and
the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the
obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof
for the purposes of the Security Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction
or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations
guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of
such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or
not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for
the purpose of the Security Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to
seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such
right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Security Guarantee.

Section 10.02     Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

         Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Securities, each Holder,
hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Security
Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent




                                       39
<PAGE>

transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent
Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or
state law to the extent applicable to any Security Guarantee. To effectuate the
foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby
irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor under its Security
Guarantee and this Article 10 shall be limited to the maximum amount as will,
after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed
liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after
giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or
payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the
obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the
obligations of such Guarantor under its Security Guarantee not constituting a
fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Section 10.03     Execution and Delivery of Security Guarantee.

         To evidence its Security Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01, each
Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Security Guarantee will be
endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor on each Security of a guaranteed Series
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture will be
executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its Officers.

         Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Security Guarantee set forth in
Section 10.01 will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure
to endorse on each Security of a guaranteed Series a notation of such Security
Guarantee.

         If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Security
Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the
Security on which a Security Guarantee is endorsed, the Security Guarantee will
be valid nevertheless.

         The delivery of any Security of a guaranteed Series by the Trustee,
after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the
Security Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

Section 10.04     Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms.

         Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.05, no Guarantor may sell or
otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate
with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving
Person) another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless:

                  (1) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no
         Default or Event of Default exists; and

                  (2) subject to Section 10.05 hereof, the Person acquiring the
         property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or
         surviving any such consolidation or merger unconditionally assumes all
         the obligations of that Guarantor, pursuant to a supplemental indenture
         in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, under the
         Securities of a guaranteed Series, this Indenture and the Security
         Guarantee on the terms set forth herein or therein.

         In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon
the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and
delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the
Security Guarantee endorsed upon the Securities of a guaranteed Series and the
due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this
Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed
to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same




                                       40
<PAGE>

effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person
thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Security Guarantees to be
endorsed upon all of the Securities of a guaranteed Series issuable hereunder
which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the
Trustee. All the Security Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the
same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Security Guarantees
theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture
as though all of such Security Guarantees had been issued at the date of the
execution hereof.

         Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 hereof, nothing contained in
this Indenture or in any of the Securities will prevent any consolidation or
merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another Guarantor, or will
prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety to the Company or another Guarantor.

Section 10.05     Releases Following Sale of Assets.

         In the event of any sale or other disposition of all or substantially
all of the assets of any Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or
otherwise, or a sale or other disposition of all to the Capital Stock of any
Guarantor, in each case to a Person that is not (either before or after giving
effect to such transactions) a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company, then such
Guarantor (in the event of a sale or other disposition, by way of merger,
consolidation or otherwise, of all of the capital stock of such Guarantor) or
the corporation acquiring the property (in the event of a sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor) will be
released and relieved of any obligations under its Security Guarantee; provided
that the net proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in
accordance with applicable provisions of this Indenture, if any. Upon delivery
by the Company to the Trustee of an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such sale or other disposition was made by the
Company in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee will
execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of
any Guarantor from its obligations under its Security Guarantee.

         Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Security
Guarantee will remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest on
the Securities of a Series that it has guaranteed and for the other obligations
of any Guarantor of Securities of a Series that it has guaranteed under this
Indenture as provided in this Article 10.

                                  ARTICLE 11.
                           SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

Section 11.01     Satisfaction and Discharge.

         This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further
effect as to all Securities of a Series issued hereunder, when:

              (1) either:

                  (a) all Securities of such Series that have been authenticated
         (except lost, stolen or destroyed Securities that have been replaced or
         paid and Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been
         deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company) have been
         delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

                  (b) all Securities of such Series that have not been delivered
         to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason
         of the making of a notice of redemption or





                                       41
<PAGE>

         otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the
         Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the
         Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders
         of such Series, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government
         Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be
         sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay
         and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Securities of such Series
         not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium,
         if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption;

                  (2) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
         continuing on the date of such deposit or will occur as a result of
         such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation
         of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the
         Company is a party or by which the Company is bound;

                  (3) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable
         by it under this Indenture; and

                  (4) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the
         Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the
         payment of the Securities of such Series at maturity or the redemption
         date, as the case may be.

         In addition, the Company must deliver an Officers' Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to
satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

         Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to
all Securities of any Series under this Indenture, if money has been deposited
with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (b) of clause (1) of this Section with
respect to a Series of Securities, the provisions of Section 11.02 and Section
8.06 will survive with respect to such Series of Securities. In addition,
nothing in this Section 11.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of
Section 7.07 hereof, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture.

Section 11.02     Application of Trust Money.

         Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06, all money deposited with the
Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in
accordance with the provisions of the Securities of such Series and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if
any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the
Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required by law.

         If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or
Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01 by reason of any legal
proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental
authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the
Company's obligations under this Indenture and the Securities of such Series
shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to
Section 11.01; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal
of, premium, if any, or interest on any Securities of such Series because of the
reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights
of the Holders of Securities of such Series to receive such payment from the
money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

         Any notice or communication to a Holder will be mailed by first class
mail, certified or registered, return receipt requested, or by overnight air
courier guaranteeing next day delivery to its address shown on the register kept
by the Registrar. Any notice or communication will also be so mailed to any
Person described in TIA ss. 313(c), to the extent required by the TIA. Failure
to mail a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it will not
affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders.

         If a notice or communication is mailed in the manner provided above
within the time prescribed, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee
receives it.

         If the Company mails a notice or communication to Holders of a Series
of Securities, it will mail a copy to the Trustee and each Agent for such Series
of Securities at the same time.

TIA ss. 312(c).

         Upon any request or application by the Company to the Trustee to take

         satisfactory to the Trustee (which must include the statements set

         has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable
         him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such
         covenant or condition has been satisfied; and

of the Company under the Securities, this Indenture, or for any claim based on,
in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder
of Securities by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability.
The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the
Securities. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the
federal securities laws.

         This Indenture may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan

Indenture.

bind its successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture will bind
its successors.
