          (d)  Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,

     and delivered after any Act of Holders may, and shall if required by the
     Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any action
     taken by such Act of Holders. If the Company shall so determine, new
     Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, so modified as to
     conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to such action may
     be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by
     the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities of such series or
     Tranche.

          (g)  If the Company shall solicit from Holders any request, demand,
     authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company
     may, at its option, by Board Resolution, fix in advance a record date for
     the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand,
     authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the
     Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed,
     such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent waiver or
     other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the
     Holders of record at the close of business on the record date shall be
     deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the
     requisite proportion of the Outstanding Securities have authorized or
     agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction,
     notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding
     Securities shall be computed as of the record date.

SECTION 105.  Notices, Etc. to Trustee, Company and Guarantor.

     Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election,
waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this
Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

          (a)  the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company or the Guarantor
     shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished
     or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office,
     or if sent by facsimile transmission, to a facsimile number provided by the
     Trustee, with a copy mailed, first class postage prepaid to the Trustee
     addressed to it as provided above, or

          (b)  the Company or the Guarantor by the Trustee or by any Holder
     shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein
     expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid,
     addressed in the case of the Company to it at the address of its principal
     office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any other
     address previously furnished in writing to such Trustee by the Company, or
     if sent by facsimile transmission, to a facsimile number provided to the
     Trustee by the Company, with a copy mailed, first class postage prepaid, to
     the Company addressed to it as provided above, and with a copy to the
     Guarantor, and addressed in the case of the Guarantor to it at the address
     specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any other address
     previously furnished in writing to such Trustee by the Guarantor, or if
     sent by facsimile transmission, to a facsimile number provided to the
     Trustee by the

                                       10
<PAGE>

     Guarantor, with a copy mailed, first class postage prepaid, to the
     Guarantor addressed to it as provided above, and with a copy to the
     Company.

SECTION 106.  Notice to Holders of Securities; Waiver.

     Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, where this Indenture
provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently
given, and shall be deemed given, to Holders if in writing and mailed, first-
class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at the address of
such Holder as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest
date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such
notice.

     In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of
any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice to Holders by
mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee
shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.  In any
case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such
notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall
affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders.

     Any notice required by this Indenture may be waived in writing by the
Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event
otherwise to be specified therein, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of
such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but
such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action
taken in reliance upon such waiver.

SECTION 107.  Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.

     If any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with
another provision hereof which is required to be included in this Indenture by
any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision shall
control.

SECTION 108.  Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

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

SECTION 109.  Successors and Assigns.

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

SECTION 110.  Separability Clause.

     In case any provision in this Indenture or the Securities or the Guarantees
shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby.

SECTION 111. Benefits of Indenture.

     Nothing in this Indenture or the Securities or in the Guarantees, express
or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, their
successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

SECTION 112. Governing Law.

     This Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

SECTION 113. Legal Holidays.

     In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated
Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment,
then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities
other than a provision in Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, or
in the Board Resolution or Officers' Certificate which establishes the terms of
such Securities or Tranche, which specifically states that such provision shall
apply in lieu of this Section) payment of interest or principal and premium, if
any, need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on
the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force
and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the
Stated Maturity, and, if such payment is made or provided for on such Business
Day, that no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from
and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the
case may be to such Business Day.

Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Company Order contemplated by Section
303 for the authentication and delivery of such Securities.

Guarantees.

SECTION 204. Securities in Global Form.

provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities
from time to time endorsed thereon and may also provide that the aggregate
amount of Outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be
reduced to reflect exchanges. Any endorsement of a Security in global form to
reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of Outstanding
Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee and in such manner
as shall be specified in such Security. Any instructions by the Company with
respect to a Security in global form, after its initial issuance, shall be in
writing but need not comply with Section 102.

     Global Securities may be issued in either registered or bearer form and in
either temporary or permanent form.

     determined, the date or dates from which such interest shall accrue, the
     Interest Payment Dates on which such interest shall be payable and the
     Regular Record Date for the interest payable on Securities on any Interest
     Payment Date; and the basis of computation of interest, if other than as

          (u)  any other terms of the Securities of such series, or any Tranche
     thereof, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture.

     If any of the terms of the series are established in a Board Resolution or
in an Officers' Certificate pursuant to a Board Resolution, such Board
Resolution and Officers' Certificate, if any, shall be delivered to the Trustee
at or prior to the delivery of the Company Order contemplated by Section 303 for
the authentication and delivery of such Securities. With respect to Securities
of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, such Board Resolution or Officers'
Certificate may provide general terms or parameters for Securities of such
series and provide either that the specific terms of particular Securities of
such series shall be specified in a Company Order or that such terms shall be
determined by the Company or its agents in accordance with a Company Order as
contemplated by the proviso of the third paragraph of Section 303.

SECTION 302.  Denominations.

     Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to
any series of Securities, the Securities of each series shall be issuable in
denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.

SECTION 303.  Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

     The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman
of the Board, its President, one of its Vice Presidents or any other duly
authorized officer, under its corporate seal affixed thereto or reproduced
thereon attested by its Secretary, one of its Assistant Secretaries or any other
duly authorized officer. The signature of any or all of these officers on the
Securities may be manual or facsimile.

     Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who
were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such
offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not
hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

     At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this
Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the
Company to the Trustee for

                                       16
<PAGE>

authentication and delivery, together with a Company Order for the
authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance
with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities;
provided, however, that, with respect to Securities of a series subject to a
Periodic Offering, (a) such Company Order may be delivered by the Company to the
Trustee prior to the delivery to the Trustee of such Securities for
authentication and delivery, (b) the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
Securities of such series for original issue from time to time, in an aggregate
principal amount not exceeding the aggregate principal amount established for
such series, all pursuant to a Company Order or pursuant to such procedures
acceptable to the Trustee as may be specified from time to time by a Company
Order, (c) the maturity date or dates, original issue date or dates, interest
rate or rates and any other terms of Securities of such series shall be
determined by Company Order or pursuant to such procedures and (d) if provided
for in such procedures, such Company Order may authorize authentication and
delivery pursuant to oral or electronic instructions from the Company or its
duly authorized agent or agents, which oral instructions shall be promptly
confirmed in writing.

     In authenticating Securities of any series, and accepting responsibilities
under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be
entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 901) shall be fully protected in
relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating

          (a)  that the forms of such Securities have been duly authorized by
     the Company and have been established in conformity with the provisions of
     this Indenture;

          (b)  that the terms of such Securities have been duly authorized by
     the Company and have been established in conformity with the provisions of
     this Indenture; and

          (c)  that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the
     Trustee and issued and delivered by the Company in the manner and subject
     to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will have been duly
     issued under this Indenture and will constitute valid and legally binding
     obligations of the Company, entitled to the benefits provided by this
     Indenture, and enforceable against the Company in accordance with their
     terms, subject, as to enforcement, to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
     reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors' rights
     generally, and to general principles of equity and doctrines applicable
     thereto (including, but not limited to, all matters of public policy);

provided, however, that, with respect to Securities of a series subject to a
Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive such Opinion of
Counsel only once at or prior to the time of the first authentication of
Securities of such series and that the opinions described in clauses (b) and (c)
above may, alternatively, state, respectively,

          (x)  that, when the terms of such Securities shall have been
     established pursuant to a Company Order or pursuant to such procedures as
     may be specified from time to time by a Company Order, all as contemplated
     by and in accordance with a Board Resolution or an Officers' Certificate
     pursuant to a Board Resolution, as the case may be, such terms will have
     been duly authorized by the Company and will have been established in
     conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and

                                       17
<PAGE>

          (y)  that such Securities, when (1) executed by the Company, (2)
     authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in accordance with this
     Indenture, (3) issued and delivered by the Company and (4) paid for, all as
     contemplated by and in accordance with the aforesaid Company Order or
     specified procedures, as the case may be, will have been duly issued under
     this Indenture and will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of
     the Company, entitled to the benefits provided by the Indenture, and
     enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject, as
     to enforcement, to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
     moratorium or other laws affecting creditors' rights generally, and to
     general principles of equity and doctrines applicable thereto (including,
     but not limited to, all matters of public policy).

     With respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the
Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any of
such Securities, the form and terms thereof and the legality, validity, binding
effect and enforceability thereof, upon the Opinion of Counsel and other
documents delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 and this Section, as
applicable, at or prior to the time of the first authentication of Securities of
such series unless and until such opinion or other documents have been
superseded or revoked. In connection with the authentication and delivery of
Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be
entitled to assume that the Company's instructions to authenticate and deliver
such Securities do not violate any rules, regulations or orders of any
governmental agency or commission having jurisdiction over the Company.

     If the form or terms of the Securities of any series have been established
by or pursuant to a Board Resolution as permitted by Sections 201 or 301, the
Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issuance of
such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's own rights,
duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a
manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

     Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

     No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a
certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein
executed by the Trustee or its agent by manual signature, and such certificate
upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such
Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to
the benefits of this Indenture.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security
shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder to the Company, or any
Person acting on its behalf, but shall never have been issued and sold by the
Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for
cancellation as provided in Section 309 together with a written statement (which
need not comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the
Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never
to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled
to the benefits hereof.

     Reference is made to Section 1502 concerning execution and delivery of the
Guarantees.

                                       18

SECTION 304.  Temporary Securities.

     Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company
may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed
or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the
tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, with such
appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the
officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their
execution of such Securities; provided, however, that temporary Securities need
not recite specific redemption, sinking fund, conversion or exchange provisions.

     If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company shall cause
definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay.
After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary
Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of
such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the
office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 602 in a Place of
Payment for such series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for
cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company
shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefor definitive Securities of the same series, of authorized denominations
and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

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

SECTION 305.  Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

     The Company shall cause to be kept at the office of the Security Registrar
designated pursuant to Section 602 a register (referred to as the "Security
Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,
the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and the
registration of transfer thereof.

     Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series
at the office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 602 in a
Place of Payment for such series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series, of authorized
denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

     At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for
other Securities of the same series, of authorized denominations and of like
tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be
exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so
surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is
entitled to receive.

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

                                       19
<PAGE>

     Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for
exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee or any transfer
agent) be duly endorsed or shall be accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar or any
transfer agent duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing.

     Unless otherwise provided in a Board Resolution or an Officers' Certificate
pursuant to a Board Resolution, or in an indenture supplemental hereto, with
respect to Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, no service charge
shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but
the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of
transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section
304, 406 or 1206 not involving any transfer.

     The Company shall not be required (a) to issue, to register the transfer of
or to exchange Securities of any series during a period of 15 days immediately
preceding the date notice is given identifying the serial numbers of the
Securities of such series called for redemption or (b) to issue, to register the
transfer of or to exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or
in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

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

     If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a
new Security of the same series, and of like tenor and principal amount and
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

     If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (a) evidence to
their satisfaction of the ownership of and the destruction, loss or theft of any
Security and (b) such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by
them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the
absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen
Security, a new Security of the same series, and of like tenor and principal
amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, in case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company
in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

     Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may
require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses
(including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

     Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of
any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional
contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or
stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable

                                       20
<PAGE>

by anyone, and any such new Security shall be entitled to all the benefits of
this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of
such series duly issued hereunder.

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

SECTION 307.  Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

     Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to
the Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, interest on any Security
which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest
Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or
more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such interest.

     Any interest on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not
punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein
called "Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder
on the related Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and
such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each
case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below.

          (a)  The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest
     to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their
     respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business
     on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which
     shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the
     Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid
     on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and
     at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of
     money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such
     Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee
     for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when
     deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to
     such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee
     shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest
     which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the
     date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by
     the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall
     promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name
     and at the expense of the Company, shall promptly cause notice of the
     proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date
     therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of
     Securities of such series at the address of such Holder as it appears in
     the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record
     Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the
     Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest
     shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series
     (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of
     business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable
     pursuant to the following clause (b).

                                       21
<PAGE>

          (b)  The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the
     Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with
     the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be
     listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after
     notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant
     to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the
     Trustee.

     Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 305, each
Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in
exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest
accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

SECTION 308.  Persons Deemed Owners.

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

     None of the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the
Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of
the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership
interests of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any
records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

SECTION 309.  Cancellation.

     All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of
transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if
surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee
and, if not theretofore cancelled, shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee.
The Company or the Guarantor may at any time deliver to the Trustee for
cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder
which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever or which the
Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall not have issued and sold,
and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No
Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities
cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this
Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in
accordance with a Company Order and the Trustee shall promptly deliver a
certificate of disposition to the Company, unless by a Company Order, the
Company shall direct that cancelled Securities be returned to it.

SECTION 310.  Computation of Interest.

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

                                       22
<PAGE>

SECTION 311.  Payment to Be in Proper Currency.

     In the case of any Securities denominated in any currency other than United
States Dollars or in a composite currency (the "Required Currency"), except as
otherwise provided therein, the obligation of the Company to make any payment of
the principal thereof, or the premium or interest thereon, shall not be
discharged or satisfied by any tender by the Company, or recovery by the
Trustee, in any currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent
that such tender or recovery shall result in the Trustee timely holding the full
amount of the Required Currency then due and payable. If any such tender or
recovery is in a currency other than the Required Currency, the Trustee may take
such actions as it considers appropriate to exchange such currency for the
Required Currency. The costs and risks of any such exchange, including without
limitation the risks of delay and exchange rate fluctuation, shall be borne by
the Company, the Company shall remain fully liable for any shortfall or
delinquency in the full amount of Required Currency then due and payable, and in
no circumstances shall the Trustee be liable therefor except in the case of its
negligence or willful misconduct. The Company hereby waives any defense of
payment based upon any such tender or recovery which is not in the Required
Currency or which, when exchanged for the Required Currency by the Trustee, is
less than the full amount of Required Currency then due and payable.

                                 ARTICLE FOUR

                            Redemption of Securities

SECTION 401.  Applicability of Article.

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

SECTION 402.  Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

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

SECTION 403.  Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed.

     If less than all the Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, are
to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected by
the Security Registrar from the Outstanding Securities of such series or Tranche
not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem
fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection

                                       23
<PAGE>

for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for
Securities of such series or Tranche or any integral multiple thereof) of the
principal amount of Securities of such series or Tranche of a denomination
larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of such series or
Tranche; provided, however, that if, as indicated in an Officers' Certificate,
the Company shall have offered to purchase all Securities then Outstanding of
any series, or any Tranche thereof, and less than all of such Securities shall
have been tendered to the Company for such purchase, the Trustee, if so directed
by Company Order, shall select for redemption all such Securities which have not
been so tendered.

     The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities
selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected to be
redeemed in part, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

     For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires,
all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the
case of any securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion
of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed.

SECTION 404.  Notice of Redemption.

     Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 106
to the Holders to be redeemed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to
the Redemption Date.

     All notices of redemption shall state:

          (a)  the Redemption Date,

          (b)  the Redemption Price,

          (c)  if less than all the Securities of any series or Tranche are to
     be redeemed, the identification of the particular Securities to be redeemed
     and the portion of the principal amount of any Security to be redeemed in
     part,

          (d)  that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due
     and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and, if applicable, that
     interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date,

          (e)  the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered
     for payment of the Redemption Price, and

          (f)  that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case.

     With respect to any notice of redemption of Securities at the election of
the Company, unless, upon the giving of such notice, such Securities shall be
deemed to have been paid in accordance with Section 701, such notice may state
that such redemption shall be conditional upon the receipt by the Trustee, on or
prior to the date fixed for such redemption, of money sufficient to pay the
principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Securities and
that if such money shall not have been so received such notice shall be of no
force or effect and

                                       24
<PAGE>

the Company shall not be required to redeem such Securities. In the event that
such notice of redemption contains such a condition and such money is not so
received, the redemption shall not be made and within a reasonable time
thereafter notice shall be given, in the manner in which the notice of
redemption was given, that such money was not so received and such redemption
was not required to be made.

     Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the
Company, and any notice of non-satisfaction of a condition for redemption as
aforesaid, shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the
Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company.

SECTION 405.  Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

     Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, and the conditions, if
any, set forth in such notice having been satisfied, the Securities or portions
thereof so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable
at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless,
in the case of an unconditional notice of redemption, the Company shall default
in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any) such
Securities or portions thereof, if interest-bearing, shall cease to bear
interest.  Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with
such notice, such Security or portion thereof shall be paid by the Company at
the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption
Date; provided, however, that any installment of interest on any Security the
Stated Maturity of which installment is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall
be payable to the Holder of such Security, or one or more Predecessor
Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the related Regular
Record Date according to the terms of such Security or Predecessor Security and
subject to the provisions of Section 307.

SECTION 406.  Securities Redeemed in Part.

     Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a
Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due
endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney
duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service
charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of any authorized
denomination requested by such Holder and of like tenor and in aggregate
principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the
principal of the Security so surrendered.

                                 ARTICLE FIVE

                                 Sinking Funds

SECTION 501.  Applicability of Article.

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

                                       25
<PAGE>

     The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of
Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, is herein referred to as a
"mandatory sinking fund payment", and any payment in excess of such minimum
amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, or any Tranche
thereof, is herein referred to as an "optional sinking fund payment".  If
provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof,
the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as
provided in Section 502.  Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the
redemption of Securities of the series or Tranche in respect of which it was
made as provided for by the terms of such Securities.

SECTION 502. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

     The Company or the Guarantor (a) may deliver Outstanding Securities (other
than any previously called for redemption) of a series or Tranche in respect of
which a mandatory sinking fund payment is to be made and (b) may apply as a
credit Securities of such series or Tranche which have been redeemed either at
the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through
the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the
terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of
such mandatory sinking fund payment; provided, however, that no Securities shall
be applied in satisfaction of a mandatory sinking fund payment if such
Securities shall have been previously so applied.  Securities so applied shall
be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price
specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking
fund and the amount of such mandatory sinking fund payment shall be reduced
accordingly.

SECTION 503. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

     Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for the
Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, the Company shall deliver to
the Trustee an Officers' Certificate specifying:

          (a)  the amount of the next succeeding mandatory sinking fund payment
     for such series or Tranche;

          (b)  the amount, if any, of the optional sinking fund payment to be
     made together with such mandatory sinking fund payment;

          (c)  the aggregate sinking fund payment;

          (d)  the portion, if any, of such aggregate sinking fund payment which
     is to be satisfied by the payment of cash;

          (e)  the portion, if any, of such aggregate sinking fund payment which
     is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of such series or
     Tranche pursuant to Section 502 and stating the basis for such credit and
     that such Securities have not previously been so credited, and the Company
     shall also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. If the
     Company shall not deliver such Officers' Certificate, the next succeeding
     sinking fund payment for such series or Tranche shall be made entirely in
     cash in the amount of the mandatory sinking fund payment. Not less than 30
     days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select
     the Securities to

                                       26
<PAGE>

     be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in
     Section 403 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the
     name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section
     404. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities
     shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 405 and
     406.

                                  ARTICLE SIX

                                   Covenants

SECTION 601.  Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest.

     The Company shall pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest,
if any, on the Securities of each series in accordance with the terms of such
Securities and this Indenture.

SECTION 602. Maintenance of Office or Agency.

     The Company and the Guarantor shall maintain in each Place of Payment for
the Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, an office or agency where
such Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where such
Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where
notices and demands to or upon the Company and the Guarantor in respect of such
Securities and this Indenture may be served.  The Company and the Guarantor
shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change
in the location, of such office or agency and prompt notice to the Holders of
any such change in the manner specified in Section 106.  If at any time the
Company or the Guarantor shall fail to maintain any such required office or
agency in respect of Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, or shall
fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations and
surrenders of such Securities may be made and notices and demands may be made or
served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby
appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive such respective presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands.

     The Company and the Guarantor may also from time to time designate one or
more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series, or
any Tranche thereof, may be presented or surrendered for any or all such
purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however,
that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company
of its obligation to maintain an office or agency for such purposes in each
Place of Payment for such Securities in accordance with the requirements set
forth above.  The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee, and
prompt notice to the Holders in the manner specified in Section 106, of any such
designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other
office or agency.

     Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any office or agency
required by this Section may be maintained at an office of the Company or the
Guarantor, in which event the Company or the Guarantor shall perform all
functions to be performed at such office or agency.

                                       27

SECTION 603. Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust.

     If the Company or the Guarantor shall at any time act as its own Paying
Agent with respect to the Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, it
shall, on or before each due date of the principal of and premium, if any, or
interest, if any, on any of such Securities, segregate and hold in trust for the
benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal
and premium or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such
Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and shall promptly notify
the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

     Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for the
Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, it shall, prior to each due
date of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest, if any, on such
Securities, deposit with such Paying Agents sums sufficient (without
duplication) to pay the principal and premium or interest so becoming due, such
sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such
principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee)
the Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to
act.

     The Company shall cause each Paying Agent for the Securities of any series,
or any Tranche thereof, other than the Trustee, to execute and deliver to the
Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee,
subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent shall:

          (a)  hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of and
     premium, if any, or interest, if any, on Securities of such series or
     Tranche in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such
     sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein
     provided;

          (b)  give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any
     other obligor upon the Securities of such series) in the making of any
     payment of principal of and premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the
     Securities of such series or Tranche; and

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

     The Company may at an time pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent
to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying
Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon
which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such
payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released
from all further liability with respect to such money.

     Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by
the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any,
or interest, if any, on any Security 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 Company Request, or, if then held by the Company,
shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall
thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for
payment thereof,

                                       28
<PAGE>

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 payment to the Company, may at the expense of the
Company cause to be mailed, on one occasion only, notice to such Holder 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 mailing, any unclaimed
balance of such money then remaining will be paid to the Company.

SECTION 604.  Corporate Existence.

     Subject to the rights of the Company under Article Eleven, the Company and
the Guarantor shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and
keep in full force and effect their respective corporate existence and their
rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that the

with the Trustee, in trust:

          (a)  money in an amount which shall be sufficient, or

          (b)  in the case of a deposit made prior to the Maturity of such
     Securities or portions thereof, Eligible Obligations, which shall not
     contain provisions permitting the redemption or other prepayment thereof at
     the option of issuer thereof, the principal of and the interest on which
     when due, without any regard to reinvestment thereof, will provide moneys
     which, together with the money, if any, deposited with or held by the
     Trustee, shall be sufficient, or

          (c)  a combination of (a) or (b) which shall be sufficient,

have been selected by the Security Registrar as provided herein and, in the case
of a redemption, the notice requisite to the validity of such redemption shall
have been given or irrevocable authority shall have been given by the Company to
the Trustee to give such notice, under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee;
and provided, further, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee:

          (x) if such deposit shall have been made prior to the Maturity of such
     Securities, a Company Order stating that the money and Eligible Obligations
     deposited with the Trustee in accordance with this Section shall be held by

          (y) if Eligible Obligations shall have been deposited with the
     Trustee, an opinion of an independent public accountant of nationally
     recognized standing, selected by the Company, to the effect that the
     requirements set forth in clause (b) above have been satisfied; and

          (z) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to
     the effect that holders of the Securities will not recognize income, gain
     or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the
     exercise of the option under this Section 701 and will be subject to United
     States federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at
     the same times as would have been the case if such option had not been
     exercised, and such opinion shall be based on a statute so providing or be
     accompanied by a private letter ruling to that effect received from the
     United States Internal Revenue Service or a revenue ruling pertaining to
     the comparable form of transaction to that effect published by the United
     States Internal Revenue Service and an Officers' Certificate stating that

acknowledge in writing that the Security or Securities or portions thereof with
respect to which such deposit was made are deemed to have been paid for all
purposes of this Indenture and that the entire indebtedness of the Company in
respect thereof is deemed to have been satisfied and discharged.

     If payment at Stated Maturity of less than all of the Securities of any
series, or any Tranche thereof, is to be provided for in the manner and with the
effect provided in this Section, the Security Registrar shall select such
Securities, or portions of principal amount thereof, in the manner specified by
Section 403 for selection for redemption of less than all the Securities of a
series or Tranche.

     In the event that Securities which shall be deemed to have been paid as
provided in this Section do not mature and are not to be redeemed within the
sixty (60) day period commencing with the date of the deposit with the Trustee
of moneys or Eligible Obligations, as aforesaid, the Company shall, as promptly
as practicable, give a notice, in the same manner as a notice of redemption with
respect to such Securities, to the Holders of such Securities to the effect that
such deposit has been made and the effect thereof.

     Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of any Securities as
aforesaid, the obligations of the Company and the Trustee in respect of such
Securities under Sections 304, 305, 306, 404, 503 (as to notice of redemption),
602, 603, 907 and 914 and this Article Seven shall survive.

Security would be deemed to have been satisfied or discharged pursuant to this
Section (without regard to the provisions of this paragraph), the Trustee shall
be required to return the money or Eligible Obligations, or combination thereof,
deposited with it as aforesaid to the Company or its representative under any
applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, the
indebtedness of the Company in respect of such Security shall thereupon be
deemed retroactively not to have been satisfied and discharged, as aforesaid,

     This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect
(except as hereinafter expressly provided), and the Trustee, at the expense of
the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture, when

          (a)  either

               (1)  all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered
          (other than (A) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen
          and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 and
          (B) Securities deemed to have been paid in accordance with Section
          701) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

               (2)  all Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
          cancellation (other than Securities described in clause (1)(A) above)
          shall be deemed to have been paid in accordance with Section 701;

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

          (c)  the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
     stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the
     satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.

     In the event there shall be Securities of two or more series Outstanding
hereunder, the Trustee shall be required to execute an instrument acknowledging
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture only if requested to do so with
respect to Securities of all series as to which it is Trustee and if the other
conditions thereto are met.  In the event there shall be two or more Trustees
hereunder, then the effectiveness of each such instrument from each Trustee
hereunder shall be conditioned upon receipt of such instruments from each other
Trustee hereunder.

     Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as
aforesaid, the obligations of the Company and the Trustee under Sections 304,
305, 306, 404, 503 (as to notice of redemption), 602, 603, 907 and 914 and this

and interest, if any, on the Securities or portions of principal amount thereof
in respect of which such deposit was made, all subject, however, to the
provisions of Section 603; provided, however, that so long as there shall not
have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, any cash received from such
principal or interest payments on such Eligible Obligations deposited with the
Trustee, if not then needed for such purpose, shall, to the extent practicable,
be invested in Eligible Obligations of the type described in clause (b) in the
first paragraph of Section 701 maturing at such times and in such amounts as
shall be sufficient to pay when due the principal of and premium, if any, and
interest, if any, due and to become due on such Securities or portions thereof
on and prior to the Maturity thereof, and interest earned from such reinvestment
shall be paid over to the Company as received by the Trustee, free and clear of
any trust, lien or pledge under this Indenture except the lien provided by
Section 907; and provided, further, that, so long as there shall not have
occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, any moneys held by the Trustee

     the Board of Directors; or

          (f)  any other Event of Default specified with respect to Securities
     of such series.

SECTION 802.  Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

     If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect
to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding, then in every such case the
Trustee or the Holders of not less than 33% in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series may declare the principal amount (or, if
any of the Securities of such series are Original Issue Discount Securities,
such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified in
the terms thereof as contemplated by Section 301) of all of the Securities of
such series to be due and

                                       34
<PAGE>

payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company and to the Guarantor
(and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon receipt by the Company and
the Guarantor of such notice of such declaration such principal amount (or
specified amount) shall become immediately due and payable; provided, however,
that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect
to more than one series of Securities, the Trustee or the Holders of not less
than 33% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all such
series, considered as one class, may make such declaration of acceleration, and
not the Holders of the Securities of any one of such series.

     At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to
Securities of any series shall have been made and before a judgment or decree
for payment of the money due shall have been obtained by the Trustee as
hereinafter in this Article provided, the Event or Events of Default giving rise
to such declaration of acceleration shall, without further act, be deemed to
have been waived, and such declaration and its consequences shall, without
further act, be deemed to have been rescinded and annulled, if

          (a)  the Company or the Guarantor shall have paid or deposited with
     the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay

               (1)  all overdue interest on all Securities of such series;

               (2)  the principal of and premium, if any, on any Securities of
          such series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration
          of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed
          therefor in such Securities;

               (3)  to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,
          interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed
          therefor in such Securities;

               (4)  all amounts due to the Trustee under Section 907;

     and

          (b)  any other Event or Events of Default with respect to Securities
     of such series, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities
     of such series which shall have become due solely by such declaration of
     acceleration, shall have been cured or waived as provided in Section 813.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any
right consequent thereon.

SECTION 803.  Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

     If an Event of Default described in clause (a) or (b) of Section 801 shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee,
pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of the series with
respect to which such Event of Default shall have occurred, the whole amount
then due and payable on such Securities for principal and premium, if any, and
interest, if any, and, to the extent required by such Securities and permitted
by law, interest on premium, if any, and on any overdue principal and interest,
at the rate or rates

                                       35
<PAGE>

prescribed therefor in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further
amount as shall be sufficient to cover any amounts due to the Trustee under
Section 907.

     If the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand,
the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a
judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may
prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same
against the Company and/or the Guarantor or any other obligor upon such
Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the
manner provided by law out of the property of the Company, the Guarantor or any
other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated.

     If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect
and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such
series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most
effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific
enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the
exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

SECTION 804. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

     In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the
Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their
creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities
shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on
the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled
and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

          (a)  to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal,
     premium, if any, and interest, if any, owing and unpaid in respect of the
     Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary
     or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any
     claim for amounts due to the Trustee under Section 907) and of the Holders
     allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

          (b)  to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
     deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or
other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by
each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the
Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to
pay to the Trustee any amounts due it under Section 907.

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

such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as
trustee of an express trust, an any recovery or judgment shall, after provision
for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of
the Holders in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

any, or interest, if any, upon presentation of the Securities in respect of
which or for the benefit of which such money shall have been collected and the
notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender

     amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal, premium, if any,
     and interest, if any, respectively; and

          Third:  To the Company.

SECTION 807. Limitation on Suits.

     No Holder shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver
or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

     proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee

other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in
the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such
Holders.

SECTION 808.  Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and
              Interest.

     Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any
Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive
payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and (subject to Section 307)
interest, if any, on such Security on the Stated Maturity or Maturities
expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption
Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such
rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

SECTION 809. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

     If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any
right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding shall have been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined
adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject
to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Guarantor and Trustee
and such Holder shall be restored severally and respectively to their former
positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and
such Holder shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 810. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

     Except as otherwise provided in the last paragraph of Section 306, no right
or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is
intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and
remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to
every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law
or in equity or otherwise.  The assertion or employment of any right or remedy
hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 811. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

     No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right
or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or
remedy or constitute a waiver

                                       38
<PAGE>

of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy
given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be
exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the
Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

SECTION 812. Control by Holders of Securities.

     If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing in respect of
a series of Securities, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series shall have the right to direct the time,
method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect
to the Securities of such series; provided, however, that if an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to more than one series of
Securities, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of all such series, considered as one class, shall have
the right to make such direction, and not the Holders of the Securities of any
one of such series; and provided, further that

          (a)  such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
     with this Indenture, and could not involve the Trustee in personal
     liability in circumstances where indemnity would not, in the Trustee's sole
     discretion, be adequate, and

          (b)  the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
     Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

SECTION 813.  Waiver of Past Defaults.

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

          (a)  in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or
     interest, if any, on any Security of such series, or

          (b)  in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Section
     1202 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of
     each Outstanding Security of such series affected.

     Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any and all
Events of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for
every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 814.  Undertaking for Costs.

     All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder by his acceptance
thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion
require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this
Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or
omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its
discretion assess

                                       39
<PAGE>

reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party
litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this
Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Company, to any suit
instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of
Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of all series in respect of which such suit may be
brought, considered as one class, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for
the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or
interest, if any, on any Security on or after the Stated Maturity or Maturities
expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the
Redemption Date).

                                 ARTICLE NINE

                                  The Trustee

SECTION 901.  Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

               (a)  Except during the continuance of an Event of Default with
          respect to Securities of any series,

                    (1)  the Trustee undertakes to perform, with respect to
               Securities of such series, such duties and only such duties as
               are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied
               covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture
               against the Trustee; and

                    (2)  in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee
               may, with respect to Securities of such series, conclusively
               rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of
               the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions
               furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
               this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or
               opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required
               to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty
               to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to
               the requirements of this Indenture.

               (b)  In case an Event of Default with respect to Securities of
          any series shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee shall
          exercise, with respect to Securities of such series, such of the
          rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same
          degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would
          exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own
          affairs.

               (c)  No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve
          the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own
          negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that

                    (1)  this subsection shall not be construed to limit the
               effect of subsection (a) of this Section;

                                       40
<PAGE>

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

                    (3)  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 a majority in
               principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any one or more
               series, as provided herein, 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 Indenture with respect to the Securities of
               such series; and

                    (4)  no provision of this Indenture shall require the
               Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any
               financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
               hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if
               it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of
               such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability,
               is not reasonably assured to it.

               (d)  Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every
          provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the
          liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject
          to the provisions of this Section.

SECTION 902.  Notice of Defaults.

          Within 90 days after the occurrence of any default hereunder with
respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to
all Holders of Securities of such series entitled to receive reports pursuant to
Section 1003(c), notice of any default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless
such default shall have been cured and waived; provided, however, that, except
in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any,
or interest, if any, on any Security of such series or in the payment of any
sinking fund installment with respect to Securities of such series, the Trustee
shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of
directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors or
Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding
of such notice is in the interest of the Holders of Securities of such series;
and provided, further, that in the case of any default of the character
specified in Section 801(c) with respect to Securities of such series, no such
notice to Holders shall be given until at least 75 days after the occurrence
thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term "default" means any event
which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of
Default with respect to Securities of such series.

SECTION 903. Certain Rights of Trustee.

     Subject to the provisions of Section 901:

          (a)  the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or
     refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement,
     instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order,
     bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness

                                       41
<PAGE>

     or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been
     signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

          (b)  any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be
     sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order, or as
     otherwise expressly provided herein, and any resolution of the Board of
     Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution;

          (c)  whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee
     shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to
     taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless
     other evidence herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad
     faith on its part, rely upon an Officers' Certificate;

          (d)  the Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of
     such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete
     authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or
     omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon;

          (e)  the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
     rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction
     of any Holder pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holder shall have
     offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs,
     expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with
     such request or direction;

          (f)  the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the
     facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
     instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order,
     bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or
     document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry
     or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the
     Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it
     shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the
     Company, personally or by agent or attorney;

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

          (h)  except as otherwise provided in Section 801(d), the Trustee shall
     not be charged with knowledge of any Event of Default with respect to the
     Securities of any series for which it is acting as Trustee unless either
     (1) a Responsible Officer of the Trustee assigned to the Corporate Trust
     and Agency Group of the Trustee (or any successor division or department of
     the Trustee) shall have actual knowledge of the Event of Default or (2)
     written notice of such Event of Default shall have been given to the
     Trustee, by the company, any other obligor on such Securities or by any
     Holder of such Securities.

SECTION 904.  Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.

     The recitals contained herein and in the Securities (except the Trustee's
certificates of authentication) shall be taken as the statements of the Company,
and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent assumes no responsibility for their
correctness.  The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or
sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities.  The Trustee or any
Authenticating Agent shall not be accountable for the use or application by the
Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 905.  May Hold Securities.

     The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security
Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other
capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections
908 and 913, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would
have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security
Registrar or such other agent.

SECTION 906.  Money Held In Trust.

     Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from
other funds, except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no
liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise
agreed with the Company.

SECTION 907.  Compensation and Reimbursement.
     The Company and the Guarantor jointly and severally agree:

          (a)  To pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation
     for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be
     limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee
     of an express trust);

          (b)  except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the
     Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
     advances reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any
     provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the
     expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such
     expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence,
     willful misconduct or bad faith; and

          (c)  to indemnify the Trustee and hold it harmless from and against,
     any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without negligence,
     willful misconduct or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in
     connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts
     hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any
     claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of
     its powers or duties hereunder.

     As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under
this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon all
property and funds held or collected by

                                       43
<PAGE>

the Trustee as such other than property and funds held in trust under Section
703 (except as otherwise provided in Section 703).

SECTION 908.  Disqualification; Conflicting Interests.

     The Trustee for the Securities shall be subject to the provisions of
Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act during the period of time required
thereby.  Nothing herein shall prevent the Trustee from filing with the
Commission the application referred to in the penultimate paragraph of Section
310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.  In determining whether the Trustee has a
conflicting interest as defined in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act
with respect to the Securities of any series, there shall be excluded Securities
of any particular series of Securities other than that series.

SECTION 909.  Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

     There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a
corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of
America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such
laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus
of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or
State authority and qualified and eligible under this Article.  If such
corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or
to the requirements of such supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so published.  If at any time the Trustee shall cease
to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall
resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in
this Article.

SECTION 910.  Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

          (a)  No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a
     successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the
     acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the
     applicable requirements of Section 911.

          (b)  The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities
     of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company and
     the Guarantor. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee
     required by Section 911 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within
     30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning
     Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
     appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such
     series.

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

          (d)  If at any time:

                                       44
<PAGE>

               (1)  the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 310(b) of the
          Trust Indenture Act pursuant to Section 908(a) hereof after written
          request therefor by the Company or the Guarantor or by any Holder who
          has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months unless the
          Trustee's duty to resign is stayed in accordance with the provisions
          of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, or

               (2)  the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 909 and
          shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or
          the Guarantor or by any such Holder, or

               (3)  the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be
          adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of
          its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take
          charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the
          purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

     then, in any such case, (x) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove
     the Trustee with respect to all Securities or (y) subject to Section 814,
     any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months may, on
     behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of
     competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all
     securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

          (e)  If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of
     acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause,
     with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a
     Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees
     with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood
     that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the
     Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there
     shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular
     series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 911.
     If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the
     occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the
     Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a
     majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series
     delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so
     appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in
     accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 911, become the
     successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that
     extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no
     successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have
     been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in
     the manner required by Section 911, any Holder who has been a bona fide
     Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, subject to
     Section 814, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated,
     petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
     successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

          (f)  The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each
     removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and
     each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of
     any series by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail,
     postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities of such series

                                       45
<PAGE>

     as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Each notice
     shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the
     Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

SECTION 911.  Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

          (a)  In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with
     respect to the Securities of all series, every such successor Trustee so
     appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the
     retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon
     the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective
     and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or, conveyance,
     shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the
     retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor
     Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of all sums owed to it,
     execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee
     all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly
     assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and
     money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.

          (b)  In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with
     respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company,
     the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the
     Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture
     supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such
     appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be
     necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each
     successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring
     Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the
     appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee
     is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such
     provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all
     the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect
     to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee
     is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee and (3)
     shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be
     necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts
     hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein
     or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-
     trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a
     trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts
     hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution
     and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of
     the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein
     and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or
     conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and
     duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or
     those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates;
     but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring
     Trustee, upon payment of all sums owed to it, shall duly assign, transfer
     and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such
     retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those
     series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.

          (c)  Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall
     execute any instruments which vest in and confirm to such successor Trustee
     all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in subsection (a) or (b) of
     this Section, as the case may be.

          (d)  No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the
     time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and
     eligible under this Article.

SECTION 912.  Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

     Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any
corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business
of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such
corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated,
but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger,
conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such
authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect
as if such successor Trustee had itself Securities authenticated such
Securities.

SECTION 913.  Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

     The Trustee is subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act,
excluding any creditor relationship listed in Section 311(b) of the Trust
Indenture Act.  A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to
Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent indicated.

SECTION 914.  Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

     The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to
the Securities of one or more series, or any Tranche thereof, which shall be
authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such
series or Tranche issued upon original issuance, exchange, registration of
transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 306, and
Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture
and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the
Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the
authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee's
certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include
authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent
and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the
Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States of America, any State or territory thereof
or the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, authorized under
such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus
of not less than $25,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by
Federal or State authority.  If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of
condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said
supervising or examining; authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the
combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be
its

                                       47
<PAGE>

combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition
so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible
in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent
shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this
Section.

     Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent
shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or
corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an
Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible
under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further
act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

     An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice
thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate
the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such
Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of
resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating
Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company. Any successor Authenticating
Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder, shall become vested with all
the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as
if originally named as an Authenticating Agent.  No successor Authenticating
Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

     The Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services under this Section, and the Trustee
shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions
of Section 907.

     The provisions of Sections 308, 904 and 905 shall be applicable to each
Authenticating Agent.

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

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




                         _____________________________

     If all of the Securities of a series may not be originally issued at one
time, and if the Trustee does not have an office capable of authenticating
Securities upon original issuance located in a Place of Payment where the
Company wishes to have Securities of such series authenticated upon original
issuance, the Trustee, if so requested by the Company in writing (which writing
need not comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel), shall appoint, in accordance with this Section and in accordance with
such procedures as shall be acceptable to the Trustee, an Authenticating Agent
(which, if so requested by the Company, may be an Affiliate of the Company)
having an office in a Place of Payment designated by the Company with respect to
such series of Securities.

               Holders.

     The Company and Guarantor shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the
Trustee:

          (a)  semiannually, not more than 15 days after each Regular Record
     Date (or, if there is no Regular Record Date relating to that series, on
     June 30 and December 31), a list, in such form as the Trustee may
     reasonably require, containing all the information in the possession or
     control of the Company and Guarantor, or any of its Paying Agents other
     than the Trustee, as to the names and addresses of the Holders as of such
     dates, and

          (b)  at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within
     30 days after the receipt by the Company or the Guarantor of any such
     request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not more than 15
     days prior to the time such list is furnished;

provided, however, that, so long as the Trustee is the Security Registrar, no
such list shall be required to be furnished.

SECTION 1002.  Preservation of Information; Communications to Holders.

          (a)  The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably
     practicable, the names and addresses of Holders (1) contained in the most
     recent list furnished to the Trustee as provided in Section 1001 and (2)
     received by the Trustee in any other capacity.  The Trustee may destroy any
     list furnished to it as provided in Section 1001 upon receipt of a new list
     so furnished relating to the Securites.

          (b)  If three or more Holders (herein referred to as "applicants")
     apply in writing to the Trustee, and furnish to the Trustee reasonable
     proof that each such applicant has owned a Security for a period of at
     least six months preceding the date of such application, and such
     application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other
     Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the
     Securities and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other
     communication which such applicants propose to transmit then the Trustee
     shall within five business days after the receipt of such application, at
     its election, either

               (1)  afford such applicants access to the information preserved
          at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 1002(a), or

               (2)  inform such applicants as to the approximate number of
          Holders whose names and addresses appear in the information preserved
          at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 1002(a), and as
          to the approximate cost of mailing to such Holders the form of proxy
          or other communication, if any, specified in such application.

     such information,, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of such
     applicants, mail to each Holder whose name and address appear in the
     information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section
     1002(a) a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which is
     specified in such request, with reasonable promptness after a tender to the
     Trustee by such applicants of the material to be mailed and of payment, or
     provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless
     within five days after such tender the Trustee shall mail to such
     applicants and file with the Commission, together with a copy of the
     material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the
     opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best interest
     of the Holders or would be in violation of applicable law.  Such written
     statement shall specify the basis of such opinion.  If the Commission,
     after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified in the
     written statement so filed, shall enter an order to sustain such objections
     or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or more of such
     objections, the Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for
     hearing, that the objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an
     order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all
     such Holders with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and
     the renewal of such tender by such applicants as aforesaid; otherwise the
     Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants
     respecting their application.

          (c)  Every Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same,
     shall be deemed to have agreed with the Company and the Trustee that
     neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of either of them shall
     be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as
     to the names and addresses of the Holders in accordance with Section
     1002(b), regardless of the source from which such information was derived,
     and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing any
     material pursuant to a request made under Section 1002(b).

     for the Securities shall also comply with Sections 313(b), 313(c) and
     313(d) of the Trust Indenture Act.

          (b)  At the time that the Trustee for the Securities of each series

     Securities of such series or Tranche, the consent of whose Holders is
     required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose
     Holders is required for any waiver of compliance with any provision of this
     Indenture or of any default hereunder and its consequences, or reduce the
     requirements of Section 1304 for quorum or voting, or

          (c)  modify any of the provisions of this Section, Section 607 or
     Section 813, except to increase the percentages in principal amount
     referred to in this Section or such other Sections or to provide that other
     provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the
     consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby;
     provided, however, that this clause shall not be deemed to require the
     consent of any Holder with respect to changes in the references to "the
     Trustee" and concomitant changes in this Section, or the deletion of this
     proviso, in accordance with the requirements of Sections 911(b) and
     1201(g).

A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other
provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the
benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or of one or more
Tranches, thereof or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of
such series or Tranches with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall
be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of
Securities of any other series or Tranche.

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

SECTION 1203.  Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

     In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of
the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive,
and (subject to Section 901) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an
Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is
authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be
obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the
Trustee's own rights, duties, immunities or liabilities under this Indenture or
otherwise.

SECTION 1204.  Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

     Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article this
Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental
indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder
of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder
shall be bound thereby. Any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article may
restate this Indenture in its entirety, and, upon the execution and delivery
thereof, any such restatement shall supersede this Indenture as theretofore in
effect for all purposes.

SECTION 1205.  Conformity With Trust Indenture Act.
     Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article shall
conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.

SECTION 1206.  Reference In Securities to Supplemental Indentures.

     Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, authenticated and
delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this
Article may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form
approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental
indenture.  If the Company and the Guarantor shall so determine, new Securities
of any series, or any Tranche thereof, so modified as to conform, in the opinion
of the Trustee and the Company and the Guarantor, to any such supplemental
indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company and the Guarantor,
Guarantees endorsed thereon may be executed by the Guarantor, and authenticated
and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities of such
series or Tranche.

                                       56
<PAGE>

SECTION 1207.  Modification Without Supplemental Indenture.

     If the terms of any particular series of Securities shall have been
established in a Board Resolution or an Officers' Certificate pursuant to a
Board Resolution as contemplated by Section 301, and not in an indenture
supplemental hereto, additions to, changes in or the elimination of any of such
terms may be effected by means of a supplemental Board Resolution or Officers'
Certificate, as the case may be, delivered to, and accepted by the Trustee;
provided; however, that such supplemental Board Resolution or Officers'
Certificate shall not be accepted by the Trustee or otherwise be effective
unless all conditions set forth in this Indenture which would be required to be
satisfied if such additions, changes or elimination were contained in a
supplemental indenture shall have been appropriately satisfied. Upon the
acceptance thereof by the Trustee, any such supplemental Board Resolution or
Officers' Certificate shall be deemed to be a "supplemental indenture" for
purposes of Section 1204 and 1206.

                               ARTICLE THIRTEEN

                  Meetings of Holders; Action Without Meeting

SECTION 1301.  Purposes for Which Meetings May Be Called.

     A meeting of Holders of Securities of one or more, or all, series, or any
Tranche or Tranches thereof, may be called at any time and from time to time
pursuant to this Article to make, give or take any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by
this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders of Securities of such
series or Tranches.

SECTION 1302.  Call, Notice and Place of Meetings.

          (a)  The Trustee may at any time call a meeting of Holders of
     Securities of one or more, or all series, or any Tranche or Tranches
     thereof, for any purpose specified in Section 1301, to be held at such time
     and at such place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, as the
     Trustee shall determine, or, with the approval of the Company, at any other
     place. Notice of every such meeting, setting forth the time and the place
     of such meeting and in general terms the action proposed to be taken at
     such meeting, shall be given, in the manner provided in Section 106, not
     less than 20 or more than 180 days prior to the date fixed for the meeting.

          (b)  If the Trustee shall have been requested to call a meeting of the
     Holders of Securities of one or more, or all, series, or any Tranche or
     Tranches, thereof, by the Company or by the Holders of 33% in aggregate
     principal amount of all of such series and Tranches, considered as one
     class, for any purpose specified in Section 1301, by written request
     setting forth in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at the
     meeting, and the Trustee shall not have given the notice of such meeting
     within 20 days after receipt of such request or shall not thereafter
     proceed to cause the meeting to be held as provided herein, then the
     Company or the Holders of Securities of such series and Tranches in the
     amount above specified, as the case may be, may determine the time and the
     place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or in such other
     place as

                                       57
<PAGE>

     shall be determined or approved by the Company, for such meeting and may
     call such meeting for such purposes by giving notice thereof as provided in
     subsection (a) of this Section.

          (c)  Any meeting of Holders of Securities of one or more, or all,
     series, or any Tranche or Tranches thereof shall be valid without notice if
     the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series or Tranche are
     present in person or by proxy and if representatives of the Company and the
     Trustee are present, or if notice is waived in writing before or after the
     meeting by the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series or
     Tranche, or by such of them as are not present at the meeting in person or
     by proxy, and by the Company and the Trustee.

SECTION 1303.  Persons Entitled to Vote at Meetings.

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

SECTION 1304.  Quorum; Action.

     The Persons entitled to vote a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of the series and Tranches with respect to which a
meeting shall have been called as hereinbefore provided, considered as one
class, shall constitute a quorum for a meeting of Holders of Securities of such
series and Tranches; provided, however, that if any action is to be taken at
such meeting which this Indenture expressly provides may be taken by the Holders
of a specified percentage, which is less than a majority, in principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of such series and Tranches, considered as one class,
the Persons entitled to vote such specified percentage in principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of such series and Tranches, considered as one class,
shall constitute a quorum.  In  the absence of a quorum within one hour of the
time appointed for any such meeting, the meeting shall, if convened at the
request of Holders of Securities of such series and Tranches, be dissolved.  In
any other case the meeting may be adjourned for a period of not less than 10
days as determined by the chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of
such meeting. In the absence of a quorum at any such adjourned meeting, such
adjourned meeting may be further adjourned for a period of not less than 10 days
as determined by the chairman or the meeting prior to the adjournment of such
adjourned meeting.  Except as provided by Section 1305(e), notice of the
reconvening of any adjourned meeting shall be given as provided in Section
1302(a) not less than five days prior to the date on which the meeting is
scheduled to be reconvened. Notice of the reconvening of an adjourned meeting
shall state expressly the percentage, as provided above, of the principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of such series and Tranches which shall constitute
a quorum.

                                       58
<PAGE>

     Except as limited by Section 1202, any resolution presented to a meeting or
adjourned meeting duly reconvened at which a quorum is present as aforesaid may
be adopted only by the affirmative vote of the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the series and
Tranches with respect to which such meeting shall have been called, considered
as one class; provided, however, that, except as so limited, any resolution with
respect to any action which this Indenture expressly provides may be taken by
the Holders of a specified percentage, which is less than a majority, in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series and Tranches,
considered as one class, may be adopted at a meeting or an adjourned meeting
duly reconvened and at which a quorum is present as aforesaid by the affirmative
vote of the Holders of such specified percentage in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series and Tranches, considered as one class.

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

SECTION 1305.  Attendance at Meetings; Determination of Voting Rights; Conduct
               and Adjournment of Meetings.

          (a)  Attendance at meetings of Holders of Securities may be in person
     or by proxy; and, to the extent permitted by law, any such proxy shall
     remain in effect and be binding upon any future Holder of the Securities
     with respect to which it was given unless and until specifically revoked by
     the Holder or future Holder of such Securities before being voted.

          (b)  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, the
     Trustee may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for
     any meeting of Holders of Securities in regard to proof of the holding of
     such Securities and of the appointment of proxies and in regard to the
     appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and
     examination of proxies, certificates and other evidence of the right to
     vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting as it
     shall deem appropriate. Except as otherwise permitted or required by any
     such regulations, the holding of Securities shall be proved in the manner
     specified in Section 104 and the appointment of any proxy shall be proved
     in the manner specified in Section 104. Such regulations may provide that
     written instruments appointing proxies, regular on their face, may be
     presumed valid and genuine without the proof specified in Section 104 or
     other proof.

          (c)  The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a
     temporary chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have been
     called by the Company or by Holders as provided in Section 1302(b), in
     which case the Company or the Holders of Securities of the series and
     Tranches calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like manner
     appoint a temporary chairman. A permanent chairman and a permanent
     secretary of the meeting shall be elected by vote of the Persons entitled
     to vote a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
     Securities of all series and Tranches represented at the meeting considered
     as one class.

                                       59
<PAGE>

          (d)  At any meeting each Holder or proxy shall be entitled to one vote
     for each $1,000 principal amount Securities held or represented by him;
     provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in
     respect of any Security challenged as not Outstanding and ruled by the
     chairman of the meeting to be not Outstanding. The Chairman of the meeting
     shall have no right to vote, except as a Holder of a Security or proxy.

          (e)  Any meeting duly called pursuant to Section 1302 at which a
     quorum is present may be adjourned from time to time by Persons entitled to
     vote a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
     of all series and Tranches represented at the meeting, considered as one
     class; and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice.

SECTION 1306.  Counting Votes and Recording Action of Meetings.

     The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of Holders shall be
by written ballots on which shall be subscribed the signatures of the Holders or
of their representatives by proxy and the principal amounts and serial numbers
of the Outstanding Securities, of the series and Tranches with respect to which
the meeting shall have been called, held or represented by them.  The permanent
chairman of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count
all votes cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make
and file with the secretary of the meeting their verified written reports of all
votes cast at the meeting. A record of the proceedings of each meeting of
Holders shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting and there shall be
attached to said record the original reports of the inspectors of votes on any
vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more persons having
knowledge of the facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and
showing that said notice was given as provided in Section 1302 and, if
applicable, Section 1304. Each copy shall be signed and verified by the
affidavits of the permanent chairman and secretary of the meeting and one such
copy shall be delivered to the Company, and another to the Trustee to be
preserved by the Trustee, the latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted
at the meeting.  Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence
of the matters therein stated.

SECTION 1307.  Action Without Meeting.

     In lieu of a vote of Holders at a meeting as hereinbefore contemplated in
this Article, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action may be made, given or taken by Holders by written
instruments as provided in Section 104.

SECTION 1308.  Fixing of Record Date.

     Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may,
but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining
the Holders of Securities entitled to attend and vote in person or by proxy at a
meeting of Holders of Securities held pursuant to this Article or to consent to
any modification, alteration or other action. If a record date is fixed, those
persons who were Holders of Securities at the close of business of the Trustee
on such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons,
shall be entitled to attend and vote in person or by proxy at a meeting of
Holders of Securities held pursuant to this Article

                                       60
<PAGE>

or to consent to such modification, alteration or other action or to revoke any
proxy or consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be
Holders of Securities after such record date.

                               ARTICLE FOURTEEN

        Immunity of Incorporators, Stockholders, Officers and Directors

SECTION 1401.  Liability Solely Corporate.

     No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or premium, if
any, or interest, if any, on any Securities, or any part thereof. or for any
claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof or of the indebtedness
represented thereby, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement under this
Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder or director, as such, past,
present or future of the Company, the Guarantor or of any predecessor or
successor corporation (either directly or through the Company or a predecessor
or successor corporation), whether by virtue of any constitutional provision,
statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or
otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Indenture and all
the Securities (including the Guarantees) are solely corporate obligations, and
that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, or be incurred by, any
incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, of the
Company, the Guarantor or of any predecessor or successor corporation, either
directly or indirectly through the Company, the Guarantor or any predecessor or
successor corporation, because of the indebtedness hereby authorized or under or
by reason of any of the obligations, covenants or agreements contained in this
Indenture or in any of the Securities (including the Guarantees) or to be
implied herefrom or therefrom, and that any such personal liability is hereby
expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as part of the
consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issuance of the
Securities (including the Guarantees).

                                ARTICLE FIFTEEN

                                  Guarantees

SECTION 1501.  Guarantee.

     The Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a
Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, and to the Trustee on
behalf of each such Holder, the due and punctual payment of the principal of
(and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on each such Security, the due and
punctual payment of any sinking fund payments and the payment of any additional
amounts, each as provided for pursuant to the terms of such Security when and as
the same shall become due and payable, in accordance with the terms of such
Security and of this Indenture.  In case of the failure of the Company to make
any such payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, or
sinking fund payment or payment of additional amounts, the Guarantor hereby
agrees to cause any such payment to be made when and as the same shall become
due and payable by acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, as if such
payment were made by the Company.

                                       61
<PAGE>

     The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be
unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of
such Security or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same,
any waiver or consent by the Holder of such Security or by the Trustee with
respect to any provisions thereof or of this Indenture, the obtaining of any
judgment against the Company or any action to enforce the same or any other
circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or
defense of a guarantor.  The Guarantor hereby waives the benefits of division
and discussion, diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with
a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to
require a proceeding first against the Company, protest or notice with respect
to such Security or the indebtedness evidenced thereby or with respect to any
sinking fund payment required pursuant to the terms of such Security and all
demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged
except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Securities
and in the Guarantees.  The Guarantees are guarantees of payment and not of
collection.  If the Trustee or the Holder of any Security is required by any
court or otherwise to return to the Company or the Guarantor, or any custodian,
receiver, liquidator, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official acting in
relation to the Company or the Guarantor, any amount paid to the Trustee or such
Holder in respect of a Security, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore
discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

     The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holders of the
Securities of a particular series against the Company in respect of any amounts
paid by the Guarantor on account or such Security pursuant to the provisions of
the Guarantees or this Indenture; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall
not be entitled to enforce or to receive any payments arising out of, or based
upon, such right of subrogation until the principal of (and premium, if any) and
interest, if any, on all Securities of such series issued hereunder shall have
been paid in full.

SECTION 1502.  Execution and Delivery of Guarantees.

     To evidence its guarantee provided in Section 1501, the Guarantor hereby
agrees to execute the Guarantees, in a form established pursuant to Section 202,
to be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee.
Each such Guarantee shall be executed on behalf of the Guarantor by its Chairman
of the Board, Vice Chairman of the Board, President or one of its Vice
Presidents or its Treasurer under a facsimile of its corporate seal reproduced
thereon and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries.  The
signature of any of these officers on the Guarantees may be manual or facsimile.

     Guarantees bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who
were at any time the proper officers of the Guarantor shall bind the Guarantor,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such
offices prior to the authentication and delivery of the Securities upon which
Guarantees are endorsed or did not hold such offices at the date of such
Securities.

     The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication
thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee endorsed
thereon on behalf of the Guarantor.  The Guarantor hereby agrees that its
Guarantee set forth in Section 1501 shall remain in full force and effect
notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a notation of such
Guarantee.

                                       62

     This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts
shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
