THE NOTES


Section 2.01.      Form and Dating.


(a)           General.  The Notes
and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form
of Exhibit A hereto.  The Notes may have
notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or
usage.  Each Note shall be dated the date
of its authentication.  The Notes shall
be in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.


The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall
constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Supplemental
Indenture and the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of
this Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and
to be bound thereby.  However, to the
extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this
Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture shall
govern and be controlling.


(b)           Global Notes.  Notes
issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached
hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges
of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto).  Notes issued in definitive form shall be
substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (but without the Global
Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the
Global Note” attached thereto).  Each
Global Note shall represent such of the outstanding Notes as shall be specified
therein and each shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate principal
amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the
aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from
time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and
redemptions.  Any endorsement of a Global
Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal
amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or
the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with written
instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06
hereof.


Section 2.02.      Execution and Authentication.  One or more Officers shall sign the Notes for
the Company by manual or facsimile signature and apply the seal of the Company.


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


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



 16
 









 


The Trustee shall, upon a written order of the Company
signed by one or more Officers (an “Authentication Order”),
authenticate Notes for original issue on the Issue Date in aggregate principal
amount not to exceed $300.0 million (other than as provided in
Section 2.07).  The Trustee shall
authenticate Additional Notes thereafter (so long as permitted by the terms of
this Supplemental Indenture) for original issue upon one or more
Authentication Orders in aggregate principal amount as specified in such order
(other than as provided in Section 2.07). 
Each such Authentication Order shall specify the amount of Notes to be
authenticated, whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes or Additional Notes
and whether the Notes are to be issued as Definitive Notes or Global Notes or
such other information as the Trustee shall reasonably request.


The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent
acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes.  An authenticating agent may authenticate
Notes whenever the Trustee may do so.  Each
reference in this Supplemental 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 2.03.      Registrar and Paying Agent. 
The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be
presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and
an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”).  The
Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes 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 shall notify the Trustee in
writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Supplemental
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.


The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust
Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with
respect to the Global Notes.


The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as
the Registrar and Paying Agent and to act as Custodian with respect to the
Global Notes.


Section 2.04.      Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.  The Company shall 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 or the Trustee all money held by the Paying
Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes,
and will notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company in making
any such payment.  While any such default
continues, the Trustee may require a 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) shall have no further
liability for the money.  If the Company
or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate
trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying
Agent.  Upon any bankruptcy or
reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as
Paying Agent for the Notes.


Section 2.05.      Holder Lists.  The
Trustee shall 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 and
shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). 
If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall 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 and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA
§ 312(a).

Section 2.06.      Transfer and Exchange.


(a)           Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes.  A Global Note may not be transferred as a
whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of
the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by
the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of
such successor Depositary.  All Global
Notes will be exchanged by the Company for Definitive Notes if (i) the
Company delivers to the Trustee written notice from the Depositary that it is
unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or that it is no longer a
clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a
successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 120 days after the
date of such notice from the Depositary or (ii) the Company in its sole
discretion determines that the Global Notes (in whole but not in
part) should be exchanged for Definitive Notes and delivers a written
notice to such effect to the Trustee. 
Upon the occurrence of either of the preceding events in (i) or
(ii) above, Definitive Notes shall be issued in such names as the Depositary
shall instruct the Trustee in writing. 
Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as
provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof. 
Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a
Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Section 2.07
or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall
be, a Global Note.  A Global Note may not
be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this
Section 2.06(a); provided, however,
that beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as
provided in Section 2.06(b) or (c) hereof.


(b)           Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes.  The transfer and exchange of beneficial
interests in the Global Notes shall be effected through the Depositary, in
accordance with the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture and the
Applicable Procedures.  Transfers of
beneficial interests in the Global Notes also shall require compliance with
either subparagraph (i) or (ii) below, as applicable, as well as one
or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:


(i)            Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note.  Beneficial interests in any Global Note may
be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial
interest in a Global Note.  No written
orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to
effect the transfers described in this Section 2.06(b)(i).


(ii)           All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global
Notes.  In connection with all
transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to
Section 2.06(b)(i) above, the transferor of such beneficial interest
must deliver to the Registrar either (A) (1) a written order from a
Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance
with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to
be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to
the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and
(2) instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures
containing information regarding the Participant account to be credited with
such increase or (B) (1) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect
Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable
Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Note in
an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and
(2) instructions given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing
information regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Note shall be
registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in
(1) above.  Upon satisfaction of all
of the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global
Notes contained in this Supplemental Indenture and the Notes or otherwise
applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal
amount of the relevant Global Note(s) pursuant to Section 2.06(g) hereof.



 18
 









 


(c)           Transfer or Exchange of Beneficial Interests for Definitive Notes.  If any holder of a beneficial interest in a
Global Note proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for a Definitive Note
or to transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who takes delivery thereof
in the form of a Definitive Note, then, upon satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in Section 2.06(b)(ii) hereof, the Trustee shall cause the
aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Note to be reduced
accordingly pursuant to Section 2.06(g) hereof, and the Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Person designated
in the instructions a Definitive Note in the appropriate principal amount.  Any Definitive Note issued in exchange for a
beneficial interest pursuant to this Section 2.06(c) shall be
registered in such name or names and in such authorized denomination or
denominations as the holder of such beneficial interest shall instruct the
Registrar through instructions from the Depositary and the Participant or
Indirect Participant.  The Trustee shall
deliver such Definitive Notes to the Persons in whose names such Notes are so
registered.


(d)           Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Notes for Beneficial Interests.  A Holder of a Definitive Note may exchange
such Note for a beneficial interest in a Global Note or transfer such
Definitive Notes to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a
beneficial interest in a Global Note at any time.  Upon receipt of a request for such an
exchange or transfer, the Trustee shall cancel the applicable Definitive Note
and increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of one of
the Global Notes.


If any such exchange or transfer from a Definitive
Note to a beneficial interest is effected at a time when a Global Note has not
yet been issued, the Company shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication
Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall
authenticate one or more Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to
the principal amount of Definitive Notes so transferred.


(e)           Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Notes for Definitive Notes.  Upon written request by a Holder of
Definitive Notes and such Holder’s compliance with the provisions of this
Section 2.06(e), the Registrar shall register the transfer or exchange of
Definitive Notes.  Prior to such
registration of transfer or exchange, the requesting Holder shall present or
surrender to the Registrar the Definitive Notes duly endorsed or accompanied by
a written instruction of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly
executed by such Holder or by its attorney, duly authorized in writing.  In addition, the requesting Holder shall
provide any additional certifications, documents and information, as applicable,
required pursuant to this Section 2.06(e).


A Holder of Definitive Notes may transfer such Notes
to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a Definitive Note.  Upon receipt of a written request to register
such a transfer, the Registrar shall register the Definitive Notes pursuant to
the instructions from the Holder thereof.


(f)            Global Note Legend. 
Each Global Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following
form:


“THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS HELD
BY THE DEPOSITARY (AS DEFINED IN THE SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE GOVERNING THIS
NOTE) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS
HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEPT
THAT (I) THE TRUSTEE MAY MAKE SUCH NOTATIONS HEREON AS MAY BE REQUIRED PURSUANT
TO SECTION 2.06 OF THE SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, (II) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY
BE EXCHANGED IN WHOLE BUT NOT IN PART PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.06(a) OF THE
SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, (III) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY



 19
 









 


BE DELIVERED TO THE
TRUSTEE FOR CANCELLATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.11 OF THE SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE
AND (IV) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY
WITH THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE COMPANY.”


(g)           Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes.  At such time as all beneficial interests in a
particular Global Note have been exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular
Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in
part, each such Global Note shall be returned to or retained and canceled by
the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof.  At any time prior to such cancellation, if
any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a
Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in
another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes
represented by such Global Note shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement
shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the
direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial
interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take
delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note,
such other Global Note shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall
be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the
direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase.


(h)           General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.


(i)            To
permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and
the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon the
Company’s order or at the Registrar’s request.


(ii)           No
service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global
Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Company and the Trustee 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 taxes or similar
governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to
Sections 2.10, 3.06 and 9.05 hereof).


(iii)          The
Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any
Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion
of any Note being redeemed in part.


(iv)          All
Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid obligations of
the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under
this Supplemental Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes
surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.


(v)           The
Company shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or
to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15
days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under
Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of
selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so
selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of
any Note being redeemed in part or (C) to register the transfer of or to
exchange a Note between a record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment
Date.


(vi)          Prior
to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee,
any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note
is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving
payment of principal of


 



 20















and interest on such
Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the
Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


(vii)         The
Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with
the provisions of Section 2.02 hereof.


(viii)        All
certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted
to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of
transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.


Section 2.07.      Replacement Notes.  If
any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee
receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Note, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication
Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are
met.  If required by the Trustee or the
Company, an 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 Note is replaced.  The
Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note.


Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of
the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Supplemental
Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued
hereunder.


Section 2.08.      Outstanding Notes. 
The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the
Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for
cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the
Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this
Section as not outstanding.  Except
as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be
outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note.


If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07
hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof
satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.


If the principal amount of any Note 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 Notes payable on that date, then on and
after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and
shall cease to accrue interest.


Section 2.09.      Treasury Notes.  In
determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have
concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company, or
by any Affiliate of the Company, shall be considered as though not outstanding,
except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be
protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that
the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.


Section 2.10.      Temporary Notes. 
Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the
Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order,
shall authenticate temporary Notes. 
Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes
but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary
Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.  Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall
prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for
temporary Notes.



 21
 









 


Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of
the benefits of this Supplemental Indenture.


Section 2.11.      Cancellation.  The
Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.  The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward
to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer,
exchange or payment.  The Trustee and no
one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer,
exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy canceled Notes
(subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act).  The Company may not issue new Notes to
replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation.


Section 2.12.      Defaulted Interest. 
If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall
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 on a
subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes
and in Section 4.01 hereof.  The
Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest
proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment.  The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed
each such special record date and payment date; provided that
no such special record date shall 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) shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that
states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such
interest to be paid.


Section 2.13.      Record Date.  The
Company may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of
Holders entitled to vote or to consent to any action by vote or consent
authorized or permitted by Sections 6.04 and 6.05.


Section 2.14.      CUSIP Numbers.  The
Company in issuing the Notes 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 Notes or as contained in any notice of
a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by
any defect in or the omission of such numbers. 
The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in
the CUSIP numbers.


ARTICLE 3



REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT


Section 3.01.      Notices to Trustee. 
If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional
redemption provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, it shall furnish to the
Trustee, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date,
an Officers’ Certificate setting forth (i) the clause of this Supplemental
Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the
redemption date, (iii) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed,
(iv) the redemption price and (v) the CUSIP numbers of the Notes to
be redeemed.


Section 3.02.      Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed.  In the event that the Company chooses to
redeem less than all of the Notes, selection of the Notes for redemption will
be made by the Trustee either:


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



 22
 









 


(2)           on
a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method
as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate.


No Notes of a principal amount of $1,000 or less shall
be redeemed in part.  If a partial
redemption is made with the proceeds of an Equity Offering (as defined in
Section 3.07(b)), the Trustee will select the Notes only on a pro rata basis or on as nearly a pro rata
basis as is practicable (subject to DTC procedures).


The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in
writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note
selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be
redeemed.  Notes and portions of Notes
selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000; except
that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding
amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be
redeemed.  Except as provided in the
preceding sentence, provisions of this Supplemental Indenture that apply to
Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for
redemption.


Section 3.03.      Notice of Redemption. 
At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the
Company shall mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail (at its own
expense), a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed
at its registered address.


The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed,
including the CUSIP numbers, and shall state:


(a)           the
Redemption Date;


(b)           the
Redemption Price;


(c)           if
any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such
Note to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date upon surrender of such
Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion
shall be issued upon cancellation of the original Note;


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


(e)           that
Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect
the Redemption Price;


(f)            that,
unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on
Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date;


(g)           the
paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Supplemental Indenture
pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and


(h)           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 Notes.


At the Company’s written request, the Trustee shall
give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company shall have provided to
the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date (unless a shorter
notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), the information required by
clauses (a) through (d) above.



 23
 









 


Section 3.04.      Effect of Notice of Redemption.  Once notice of redemption is mailed in
accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes 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 Price. 
One Business Day prior to the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit
with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the
Redemption Price of all Notes to be redeemed on that date and any amounts owed
the Trustee.  The Trustee or the Paying
Agent shall 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 Price of all Notes to be redeemed and any amounts owed the
Trustee.


If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding
paragraph, on and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on
the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption.  If a Note is redeemed 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 Note
was registered at the close of business on such record date.  If any Note called for redemption shall not
be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Company
to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid
principal, from the redemption 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 Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.


Section 3.06.      Notes Redeemed in Part. 
Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company shall
issue and, upon the Company’s written request, the Trustee shall authenticate
for the Holder at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal
amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered.


Section 3.07.      Optional Redemption. 
The Notes may be redeemed or purchased in whole or in part at the
Company’s option at any time prior to the maturity of the Notes at a price
equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the Applicable Premium as
of, and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, (the “Redemption
Price”) to the date of the redemption or purchase (the “Redemption Date”) (subject to the right of Holders of
record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant

may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or
in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay,

otherwise become responsible for payment of (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including, without
limitation, Acquired Indebtedness) other than Permitted Indebtedness.

Subsidiaries, if the Board of Directors of the Company 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.

such occurrence, the “Change of Control Date”),
each Holder shall have the right to require the Company to purchase such Holder’s
Notes in whole or in part in integral multiples of $1,000 at a purchase price

any Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest;


(iv)          that
any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall

the Notes and the only remaining right of the Holder is to receive payment of
the Change of Control Purchase Price upon surrender of the applicable Note to
the Paying Agent;

by book-entry transfer, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the
notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the

or before the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent
lawful, accept for payment, all Notes or portions thereof validly tendered
pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, and shall deliver to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted
for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.10.
The Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall
promptly mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the
purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company
for purchase, and the Company shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee,
upon written request from the Company shall authenticate and mail or deliver
such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased
portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed
or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof.

laws or regulations conflict with the provisions under this Section 4.10, the
Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and

(a)           The
Company shall and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to at all times cause
all properties used or useful in the conduct of its business to be maintained
and kept in good condition, repair and working order (reasonable wear and tear
excepted) and supplied with all necessary equipment, and shall cause to be made
all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements
thereto; provided that nothing in this Section 4.12 shall prevent
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from discontinuing the operation or
maintenance of any of such properties, or disposing of any of them, if such
discontinuance or disposal is either (i) in the ordinary course of
business, (ii) in the reasonable and good faith judgment of the Board of Directors
or management of the Company or the Subsidiary concerned, as the case may be,
desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company or such Subsidiary, as
the case may be, or (iii) otherwise permitted by this Indenture.

of its Subsidiaries, and reflect on its financial statements adequate accruals
and appropriations to reserves, all in accordance with GAAP consistently
applied to the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

Company shall and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply in all material
respects with all statutes, laws, ordinances, or government rules and
regulations to which it is subject,

non-compliance with
which would materially adversely affect the business, earnings, properties,
assets or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

default (and demanding that such default be remedied) from the Trustee or
the Holders of at least 25% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes

and any extensions thereof) the principal amount of any Indebtedness

Indebtedness (which acceleration is not rescinded, annulled or otherwise cured
within 20 days of receipt by the Company or such Subsidiary of notice of
any such acceleration) if the aggregate principal amount of such
Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness
in default for failure to pay principal at final maturity or which has been
accelerated, aggregates $50.0 million or more at any time;


 



 30















(5)           there
shall have been the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of:


(a)           a
decree or order for relief in respect of the Company or any Significant
Subsidiary in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Bankruptcy
Law; or


(b)           a
decree or order adjudging the Company or any Significant Subsidiary bankrupt or
insolvent, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of
or in respect of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary under any applicable
federal or state law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator,
assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or any
Significant Subsidiary or of any substantial part of its property, or ordering
the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and any such decree or order for
relief shall continue to be in effect, or any such other decree or order shall
be unstayed and in effect, for a period of 60 consecutive days; or

Subsidiary commences a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable
Bankruptcy Law or any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated bankrupt or

(i)            consents to the filing of such
petition or the appointment of, or taking possession by, a custodian, receiver,

or such Significant Subsidiary or of any substantial part of its property;


(ii)           makes an assignment for the benefit

its debts generally as they become due; or


(e)           the
Company or any Significant Subsidiary takes any corporate action in furtherance
of any such actions in this clause (6).


Section 6.02.      Acceleration.  If an
Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clauses
(5) or (6) above with respect to the Company) shall occur
and be continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of outstanding Notes may declare the principal of and accrued interest
on all the Notes to be due and payable by notice in writing to the Company and
the Trustee specifying the respective Event of Default and that it is a “notice
of acceleration” (the “Acceleration Notice”),
and the same shall become immediately due and payable.


If an Event of Default specified in clauses
(5) or (6) above with respect to the Company occurs and is
continuing, then all unpaid principal of, and premium, if any, and accrued and
unpaid interest on all



 31
 









 


of the outstanding Notes shall ipso facto
become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act
on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.


At any time after a declaration of acceleration with
respect to the Notes as described in the preceding paragraph, the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Notes may rescind and cancel such
declaration and its consequences:


(1)           if
the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree;


(2)           if
all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of
principal or interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration;


(3)           to
the extent the payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue
installments of interest and overdue principal, which has become due otherwise
than by such declaration of acceleration, has been paid;


(4)           if
the Company has paid the Trustee its reasonable compensation and reimbursed the
Trustee for its expenses, disbursements and advances; and


(5)           in
the event of the cure or waiver of an Event of Default of the type described in
clauses (5) or (6) of Section 6.01 hereof, the Trustee
shall have received an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel that
such Event of Default has been cured or waived. 
No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any
right consequent thereto.


Section 6.03.      Other Remedies.  If an
Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available
remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on
the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this
Supplemental Indenture.


The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does
not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the
proceeding.  A delay or omission by the
Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon
an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver
of or acquiescence in the 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 Notes by notice in writing to the Trustee may on behalf of the
Holders of all of the Notes waive an existing Default or Event of Default 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 Notes
(including in connection with a Change of Control Offer or other offer to
purchase) (provided, however, that the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes 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 Supplemental 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 Notes
may, by written notice, 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.  However,
the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this
Supplemental Indenture that



 32
 









 


the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to
the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in any
personal liability.


Section 6.06.      Limitation on Suits. 
A Holder of a Note may pursue a remedy with respect to this Supplemental
Indenture or the Notes only if:


(a)           a
Holder gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;


(b)           the
Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes make
a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;


(c)           such
Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity
satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;


(d)           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


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


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


Section 6.07.      Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Supplemental Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of
principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes so held, on or after the
respective due dates expressed in the Notes (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 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 Notes 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 and any
amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof.


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 allowed in any judicial proceedings relative
to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), 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 in writing 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 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



 33
 









 


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 Notes 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, 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 Notes for amounts due and
unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably,
without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable
on the Notes 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 Notes 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
Supplemental 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 does not
apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07
hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes.


ARTICLE 7



TRUSTEE


Section 7.01.      Duties of Trustee. 
(a)  If an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and
powers vested in it by this Supplemental 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.


(b)           Except
during the continuance of an Event of Default:


(i)            the
Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Supplemental Indenture and no implied covenants
or obligations shall be read into this Supplemental Indenture against the
Trustee; and


(ii)           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
Supplemental Indenture in the absence of bad



 34
 









 


faith on the Trustee’s
part; provided, however, that the Trustee
shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they
substantially conform to the requirements of this Supplemental Indenture.


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


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


(ii)           the
Trustee shall 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;


(iii)          the
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to
take in good faith in accordance with a written direction received by it
pursuant to Section 6.05; and


(iv)          the
Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise
incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties under this
Supplemental Indenture or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it
has reasonable grounds to believe repayment of the funds or adequate indemnity
against the risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.


(d)           Every
provision of this Supplemental Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting
the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee is subject to the
provisions of this Section 7.01 and to the provisions of the TIA.


(e)           The
Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any right or power unless it
receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.


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


(g)           The
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be
taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of
not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time
outstanding given pursuant to Section 6.05 of this Supplemental Indenture,
relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred
upon the Trustee under this Supplemental Indenture.


Section 7.02.      Rights of Trustee. 
(a)  The Trustee may rely
conclusively on 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 that conforms to Section 11.04.  The Trustee shall 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.


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



 35
 









 


(d)           The
Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good
faith that it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers, except
conduct that constitutes willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.


(e)           The
Trustee may consult with counsel, and the Trustee will not be liable for any
action it takes or omits in reliance on, and in accordance with advice of
counsel.


(f)            The
Trustee will not be required to investigate any facts or matters stated in any
document, but if it decides to investigate any matters or facts, the Trustee or
its agents or attorneys will be entitled to examine the books, records and
premises of the Company.


Section 7.03.      Individual Rights of Trustee.  The Trustee in its individual or any other
capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes 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.  Any Paying
Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like
rights.  However, the Trustee must comply
with Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.


Section 7.04.      Trustee’s Disclaimer. 
The Trustee (i) is not responsible for and makes no representation
as to the validity or adequacy of this Supplemental Indenture, (ii) shall
not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes and
(iii) shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company in this
Supplemental Indenture, other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication,
or in any prospectus used in the sale of any of the Notes, other than
statements, if any, provided in writing by the Trustee for use in such
prospectus.


Section 7.05.      Notice of Defaults. 
The Trustee will give to the Holders notice of any Default with regard
to the Notes actually known to a Responsible Officer within 90 days after
receipt of such knowledge and in the manner and to the extent provided in TIA
§ 313(c), and otherwise as provided in Section 11.02 of this Supplemental
Indenture; provided, however, that except in the
case of a Default in payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest
on any Note, the Trustee will be protected in withholding notice of Default if
and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines
that withholding of the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes.


Section 7.06.      Reports by Trustee. 
Within 60 days after each October 15 beginning with the October 15
following the date of this Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee will mail to
each Holder, at the name and address which appears on the registration books of
the Company, and to each Holder who has, within the two years preceding the
mailing, filed that person’s name and address with the Trustee for that purpose
and each Holder whose name and address have been furnished to the Trustee
pursuant to Section 2.05, a brief report dated as of that October 15 which
complies with TIA § 313(a).  Reports
to Noteholders pursuant to this Section 7.06 shall be transmitted in the
manner and to the extent provided in TIA § 313(c).  The Trustee also will comply with TIA
§ 313(b).


A copy of each report will at the time of its mailing
to Holders be filed with each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed and
also with the SEC.  The Company will
promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange and
of any delisting of the Notes.


Section 7.07.      Compensation and Indemnity. 
The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable
compensation for its services.  The
Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a
trustee of an express trust.  The Company
shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to
the compensation for its services.  Such
expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts.



 36
 









 


The Company shall indemnify the Trustee against any
and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorney’s
fees) incurred by it in connection with the administration of the trust
created by this Supplemental Indenture and the performance of its duties under
this Supplemental Indenture.  The Trustee
shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek
indemnity.  Failure by the Trustee to so
notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations
hereunder.  The Company shall defend the
claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the
fees and expenses of such counsel.  The
Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent.  The Company need not reimburse any expense or
indemnify against any loss, expense or liability incurred by the Trustee to the
extent it is due to the Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad
faith.


To secure the Company’s obligations to make payments
to the Trustee under this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien
prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee,
other than money or property held in trust to pay principal or interest on
particular Notes.  Those obligations of
the Company shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Supplemental
Indenture.


When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services
after an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(6) or
(7) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services of
the Trustee are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any
Bankruptcy Law.


For purposes of this Section 7.07, “Trustee” will
include any predecessor Trustee, but the willful misconduct, negligence or bad
faith of any Trustee shall not affect the rights of any other Trustee under
this Section 7.07.


Section 7.08.      Replacement of Trustee. 
The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company.  The Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so
notifying the Trustee and the Company and may appoint a successor Trustee.  The Company may remove the Trustee if:


(a)           the
Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;


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


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


(d)           the
Trustee becomes incapable of acting.


If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy
exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly
appoint a successor Trustee.  Within one
year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a
successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.


No removal or appointment of a Trustee will be valid
if that removal or appointment would conflict with any law applicable to the
Company.


A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance
of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company.  Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee
will, subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07, transfer all
property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, the resignation or
removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor
Trustee will have all the rights,



 37
 









 


powers and duties of the Trustee under this
Supplemental Indenture.  A successor
Trustee will mail notice of its succession to each Holder.


If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60
days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee,
the Company or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee.


If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10,
any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of
the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.


Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee
pursuant to this Section, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07
shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.


Section 7.09.      Successor Trustee by Merger, etc..  If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or
converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust
assets to, another Person, the resulting, surviving or transferee Person will,
without any further act, be the successor Trustee.


If at the time a successor by merger, conversion or
consolidation to the Trustee succeeds to the trusts created by this
Supplemental Indenture any of the Notes have been authenticated but not
delivered, the successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of
authentication of the predecessor Trustee, and deliver the Notes which were
authenticated by the predecessor Trustee; and if at that time any of the Notes
have not been authenticated, the successor to the Trustee may authenticate
those Notes in its own name as the successor to the Trustee; and in either case
the certificates of authentication will have the full force provided in this
Supplemental Indenture for certificates of authentication.


Section 7.10.      Eligibility; Disqualification.  The Trustee will at all times satisfy the
requirements of TIA § 310(a).  The
Trustee will at all times have (or shall be a member of a bank holding company
system whose parent corporation has) a combined capital and surplus of at
least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recently published annual report of
condition, which will be deemed for this paragraph to be its combined capital
and surplus.  The Trustee will comply
with TIA § 310(b).


Section 7.11.      Preferential Collection of Claims.  The Trustee shall comply with TIA
§ 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA
§ 311(b).  A Trustee who has
resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 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.  The Company may, at the option of its Board
of Directors evidenced by a Board 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 Notes upon compliance with the conditions set
forth below in this Article 8.


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 Notes on the date the conditions
set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal
Defeasance”).  For this
purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid
and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes,
which shall



 38
 









 


thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the
purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this
Supplemental Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have
satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and this Supplemental
Indenture (and the Trustee, on written demand of and at the expense of the
Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for
the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or
discharged hereunder:  (a) the
rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive solely from the trust fund described
in Section 8.04 hereof, and as more fully set forth in such Section,
payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such
Notes when such payments are due, (b) the Company’s obligations with
respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Section 4.02 hereof,
(c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee
hereunder and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith and
(d) this Article 8.  Subject to
compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this
Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under
Section 8.03 hereof.


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 its obligations under the covenants contained in
Sections 4.07, 4.09 and 4.11 hereof and clause (2) of
Section 5.01 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the
date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be
deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or
declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in
connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding”
for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not
be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). 
For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the
outstanding Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no
liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such
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 shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under
Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this
Supplemental Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby.  In addition, upon the Company’s exercise
under Section 8.01 hereof of the 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(4) and
(5) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default..


Section 8.04.      Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.  The following shall be the conditions to the
application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof to the outstanding U.S.
Notes:


In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or
Covenant Defeasance:


(a)           the
Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of
the Holders, cash in United States dollars, non-callable Government Securities,
or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the written
opinion of a nationally recognized independent registered public accounting
firm addressed to the Trustee, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on
the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and any other amounts owing
under this Supplemental Indenture, if in the case of an optional redemption
date prior to electing to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an irrevocable notice to
redeem all of the outstanding Notes on such redemption date;


(b)           in
the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (i) the Company has received
from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or
(ii) since the date of this Supplemental Indenture, there has been a
change in the applicable



 39
 









 


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 Notes 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;


(c)           in
the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes
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;


(d)           no
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date
of such deposit or insofar as Events of Default from bankruptcy or insolvency
events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after
the date of deposit;


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


(f)            the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating
that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the
Holders over any other creditors of the Company or with the intent of
defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Company
or others;


(g)           the
Company shall have delivered 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, as the case may
be, have been complied with; and


(h)           the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that, assuming no intervening bankruptcy of the Company between the date of
deposit and the 91st day following the date of deposit and that no Holder is an
insider of the Company, after the 91st day following the date of deposit, the
trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights
generally.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, the opinion of counsel
required by clause (b) above with respect to Legal Defeasance need not be
delivered if all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation (1) have become due and payable or (2) will become due
and payable on the maturity date within one year under arrangements
satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the
Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company.


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 pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding
Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the
provisions of such Notes and this Supplemental 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 such Notes
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.


 



 40















The Company shall 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
the outstanding Notes.


Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to
time upon the written 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(a) 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 Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal,
and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to
the Company on its written request or (if then held by the Company) shall
be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter
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, shall thereupon cease; provided,
however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being
required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to
be published once, in 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 shall 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
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 Supplemental Indenture
and the Notes shall 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 Note following the reinstatement of its
obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of
such Notes 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 Notes.  Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this
Supplemental Indenture, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement
this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes without the consent of any Holder of a
Note:


(a)           to
cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency that does not adversely affect in
any material respect the rights hereunder of any Holder of the Notes;


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



 41
 









 


(c)           to
provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to the Holders by a
successor to the Company pursuant to Article 5 hereof;


(d)           to
make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the
Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect in any material respect
the rights hereunder of any Holder of the Notes;


(e)           to
comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification
of this Supplemental Indenture under the TIA; or


(f)            to
evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under this Supplemental
Indenture of a successor Trustee.


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


Section 9.02.      With Consent of Holders of Notes.  Except as provided below in this
Section 9.02, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this
Supplemental Indenture, and the Notes with the written consent of the Holders
of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting
as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender
offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to
Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default
(other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting
from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any
provision of this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the
written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes voting as a single class (including consents obtained in
connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the
Notes).


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


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


After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this
Section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders affected
thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver.  Any failure of the Company to mail such
notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any



 42
 









 


way impair or affect the validity of any such amended
or supplemental Supplemental Indenture or waiver.  Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07
hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
then outstanding voting as a single class may waive in writing compliance in a
particular instance by the Company with any provision of this Supplemental
Indenture or the Notes.  However, without
the written consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver under this
Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting
Holder):


(a)           reduce
the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment;


(b)           reduce
the rate of or change or have the effect of changing the time for payment of
interest, including defaulted interest, on any Notes;


(c)           reduce
the principal of or change or have the effect of changing the fixed maturity of
any Notes, or change the date on which any Notes may be subject to redemption
or reduce the redemption price therefor;


(d)           make
any Notes payable in money other than that stated in the Notes;


(e)           make
any change in provisions of this Supplemental Indenture protecting the right of
each Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on such Note on or
after the due date thereof or to bring suit to enforce such payment, or
permitting Holders of a majority in principal amount of Notes to waive Defaults
or Events of Default;


(f)            after
the Company’s obligation to purchase Notes arises thereunder, amend, change or
modify in any material respect the obligation of the Company to make and
consummate of Change of Control Offer in the event of a Change of Control
Triggering Event or, after such Change of Control Triggering Event has
recurred, modify any of the provisions or definitions with respect thereto; or


(g)           modify
or change any provision of this Supplemental Indenture or the related
definitions affecting the subordination or ranking of the Notes in a manner
which adversely affects the Holders.


Section 9.03.      Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.  Every amendment or supplement to this
Supplemental Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in a amended or
supplemental 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 is a continuing consent by the
Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note
that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation
of the consent is not made on any Note. 
However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as
to its Note 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 Notes.  The Trustee may place an appropriate notation
about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter
authenticated.  The Company in exchange
for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an
Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement
or waiver.


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



 43
 









 


Section 9.06.      Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.  The Trustee shall sign any amended or
supplemental 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 Supplemental
Indenture until the Board of Directors approves it.  In executing any amended or supplemental
indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to
Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying conclusively
upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 11.04 hereof, an
Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of
such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this
Supplemental Indenture.


ARTICLE 10



SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE


Section 10.01.      Satisfaction and Discharge. 
This Supplemental Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of
further effect (except as to surviving rights or registration of transfer or
exchange of the Notes, as expressly provided for in this Supplemental
Indenture) as to all outstanding Notes, when:

the Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or
destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment
money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust
by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such
trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or


(ii)           all
Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due
and payable and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited
with the Trustee funds in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire
Indebtedness on the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to
the date of deposit together with irrevocable instructions from the Company
directing the Trustee to apply such funds to the payment thereof at maturity or
redemption, as the case may be;

Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may

Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required by law.

money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 10.01 by reason
of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment

restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s
obligations under this Supplemental Indenture and the Notes shall be revived
and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to
Section 10.01; provided that
if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the
Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to
receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the
Trustee or Paying Agent.

[Back of Note]

5.850% Senior Notes due 2017


Capitalized terms used
herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to
below unless otherwise indicated.


1.  INTEREST.  iStar Financial Inc., a Maryland corporation
(the “Company”), promises to pay interest on
the principal amount of this note at 5.850% per annum from March 9, 2007 until
maturity.  The Company will pay interest
semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, or if any
such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an “Interest Payment Date”). 
Interest on the notes will accrue from the most recent date to which
interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from March 9, 2007; provided that if there is no existing default in the payment
of interest, and if this note is authenticated between a record date referred
to on the face hereof and the next succeeding interest payment date, interest
shall accrue from such next succeeding interest payment date; provided, further, that the first interest payment date
shall be September 15, 2007. The Company shall pay interest (including
post-petition interest in any proceeding under any bankruptcy law) on
overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the rate
then in effect; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
proceeding under any bankruptcy law) on overdue installments of interest
(without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on
demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. 
Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months.  If any interest payment date on the Notes other than the maturity date is
not a Business Day, such interest payment date will be postponed to the next
succeeding Business Day. If the maturity date of the Notes falls on a day that
is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal and interest will be
made on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the date such payment
was due, and no interest will accrue on such payment for the period from and
after the maturity date to the date of such payment on the next succeeding
Business Day.


2.  METHOD OF PAYMENT.  The Company will pay interest on the Notes
(except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of
Notes at the close of business on the March 1 or September 1 next preceding the
Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date
and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12
of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest.  The Notes will be payable as to principal,
premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained
for such purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at the
option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the
Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately
available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest, and
premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which
shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying
Agent.  Such payment shall be in such
coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is
legal tender for payment of public and private debts.  The Company reserves the right to pay
interest to Holders of Notes by check mailed to such Holders at their registered
addresses or by wire transfer to Holders of at least $5 million aggregate
principal amount of Notes.


3.  PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR.  Initially, US Bank Trust National
Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and
Registrar.  The Company may change any
Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder.  The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may
act in any such capacity.


4.  INDENTURE.  The Company issued the Notes under an
Indenture dated as of February 5, 2001, as amended and supplemented,
including as supplemented by a Supplemental Indenture dated as of March 9, 2007
(collectively, the “Indenture”)
between the Company and the Trustee.  The
terms of the 













Notes include those
stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to
the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code
§§ 77aaa-77bbbb).  The Notes are
subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such
Act for a statement of such terms.  To
the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of
the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be
controlling.  The Notes are obligations
of the Company.  The Company is issuing
$250.0 million in aggregate principal amount on the Issue Date and may issue
Additional Notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.


5.  OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.


The Notes may be redeemed or purchased in whole or in
part at the Company’s option at any time prior to the maturity of the Notes at
a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the Applicable
Premium as of, and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, to the date of the
redemption or purchase (the “Redemption Date”) (subject to the right of
Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant
interest payment date).


“Applicable Premium”
means, with respect to the Notes, at any Redemption Date, the greater of:  (1) 1.0% of the principal amount of such
Note; and (2) the excess of (a) the present value at such Redemption
Date of (i) the principal amount of such Note on the redemption date plus
(ii) all required remaining scheduled interest payments due on such Note
through March 15, 2017 computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury
Rate plus 25 basis points over (b) the outstanding principal amount of
such Note on such Redemption Date. 
Calculation of the Applicable Premium will be made by the Company or on
behalf of the Company by such Person as the Company shall designate; provided, however, that such calculation shall not be a duty
or obligation of the Trustee.


“Treasury Rate”
means, with respect to a Redemption Date, the yield to maturity at the time of
computation of United States Treasury securities with a constant maturity (as
compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release
H.15(519) that has become publicly available on the third Business Day
prior to our providing notice of redemption (or, if such Statistical Release is
no longer published, any publicly available source of similar market data)) most
nearly equal to the period from such Redemption Date to the maturity date; provided, however, that if the period from such Redemption
Date to the maturity date is not equal to the constant maturity of the United
States Treasury security for which a weekly average yield is given, the
Treasury Rate shall be obtained by linear interpolation (calculated to the
nearest one-twelfth of a year) from the weekly average yields of United
States Treasury securities for which such yields are given, except that if the
period from such Redemption Date to the maturity date is less than one year,
the weekly average yield on actually traded United States Treasury securities
adjusted to a constant maturity of one year shall be used.


6.  MANDATORY REDEMPTION.


Except as set forth in paragraph 7, the Company shall
not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect to the
Notes.


7.  REPURCHASE OF OPTION OF HOLDER.


Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering
Event, the Company will be required to offer to purchase all of the outstanding
Notes at a principal price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of purchase.


8.  NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. 
Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than
60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be
redeemed at its 













registered address. 
Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but
only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are
to be redeemed.  On and after the
redemption date interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called
for redemption.


9.  DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE.  The Notes are in registered form without
coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.  The transfer of Notes may be registered and
Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture.  The Registrar and the Trustee may require a
Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer
documents and the Company and the Trustee may require a Holder to pay any taxes
and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture.  The Company need not exchange or register the
transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for
the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.  Also, the Company need not exchange or
register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection
of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the
corresponding Interest Payment Date.


10.  PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. 
The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all
purposes.


11.  AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER.  Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture
or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the written consent of the
Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes voting as a single class, and any existing default or compliance with any
provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the written consent
of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
voting as a single class.  Without the
consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or
supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for
uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to
provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to Holders of the Notes
in case of a merger or consolidation, to make any change that would provide any
additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not
adversely affect in any material respects the rights under the Indenture of any
such Holder, to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or
maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act or to
evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture of a
successor Trustee.


12.  DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. 
Events of Default are set forth in the Indenture.  If any Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of
the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of
an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency,
all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or
notice.  Holders may not enforce the
Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture.  Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the
Trustee in writing in its exercise of any trust or power.  The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the
Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or
Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it
determines that withholding notice is in their interest.  The Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Trustee
may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or
Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing
Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of,
the Notes.  The Company is required to
deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the
Indenture, and the Company is required upon becoming aware of any Default or
Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default
or Event of Default.













13.  TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY.  The Trustee, in its individual or any other
capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the
Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its
Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.


14.  NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. 
A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder, of the
Company, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company
under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or
by reason of, such obligations or their creation.  Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and
releases all such liability.  The waiver
and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.


15.  AUTHENTICATION.  This
Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the
Trustee or an authenticating agent.


16.  ABBREVIATIONS.  Customary
abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as:  TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (=
tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship
and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts
to Minors Act).


17.  CUSIP NUMBERS.  Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by
the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has
caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP
numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders.  No representation is made as to the accuracy
of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of
redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers
placed thereon.

request and without charge a copy of the Indenture.  Requests may be made to:
