                           established in conformity with the provisions of this
                           Indenture;

                           (b)      if the terms of such Securities have been
                           established by or pursuant to Board Resolutions as
                           permitted by this Section 2.1, that such terms have
                           been established in conformity with the provisions of
                           this Indenture;

                           (c)      that such Securities, when authenticated and
                           delivered by the Trustee and executed and issued by
                           the Company in the manner and subject to any
                           conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will
                           be valid and binding obligations of the Company,
                           except as any rights thereunder may be limited by
                           bankruptcy, insolvency and other similar laws
                           affecting the enforcement of creditor's rights
                           generally and by general equity principles;

                           (d)      that all laws and requirements in respect of
                           the execution and delivery by the Company of such
                           Securities have been complied with and that
                           authentication and delivery of the Securities by the
                           Trustee will not violate the terms of this Indenture;
                           and

                           (e)      covering such other matters as the Trustee
                                    may reasonably request.

                  Each fully registered Security shall be dated the date of its
authentication. Any series of Bearer Securities shall be dated as provided in
the Board Resolution or the provisions of the supplemental indenture creating
such series.

         Section 2.4. Execution of Securities; Trustee's Certificate of
Authentication; Form of Securities.

                  2.4.1. Two Officers shall sign the Securities for the Company
by manual or facsimile signature.

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

                  2.4.2. Only such Securities bearing a certificate of
authentication executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its
Responsible Officers, shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the Trustee upon any
Security executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that the Security
so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that
the Holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

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

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

                  2.4.3. The Securities of each series shall be substantially of
the tenor and purport as shall be authorized by a Board Resolution or in an
indenture or indentures supplemental hereto, in each case with such appropriate
insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or
permitted by this Indenture, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks
of identification or designation and such legends or endorsements thereon as the
Board of Trustees of the Company may deem appropriate and as are not
inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, or as may be required to
comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with
any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which the Securities may be
listed, or to conform to usage.

                           The definitive Securities may be printed,
lithographed or fully or partly engraved or produced in any other manner, all as
determined by the officers executing such Securities, as evidenced by their
executions thereof.

         Section 2.5. Registrar and Paying Agent.

                  The Company shall maintain, with respect to each Series of
Securities, at the place or places specified with respect to such Series
pursuant to Section 2.2, an office or agency where Securities of such Series may
be presented or surrendered for payment ("Paying Agent"),

                                       11

<PAGE>

where Securities of such Series may be surrendered for registration of transfer
or exchange ("Registrar") and where notices and demands to or upon the Company
in respect of the Securities of such Series and this Indenture may be served
("Service Agent"). The Registrar shall keep a register with respect to each
Series of Securities and to their transfer and exchange. The Company will give
prompt written notice to the Trustee of the name and address, and any change in
the name or address, of each Registrar, Paying Agent or Service Agent. If at any
time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required Registrar, Paying
Agent or Service Agent or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the name and
address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made
or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby
appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders,
notices and demands.

                  The Company may also from time to time designate one or more
co-registrars, additional paying agents or additional service agents 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
obligations to maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent and Service Agent in each
place so specified pursuant to Section 2.2 for Securities of any Series for such
purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such
designation or rescission and of any change in the name or address of any such
co-registrar, additional paying agent or additional service agent. The term
"Registrar" includes any co-registrar; the term "Paying Agent" includes any
additional paying agent; and the term "Service Agent" includes any additional
service agent.

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

         Section 2.6. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

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

         Section 2.7. Securityholder Lists.

                  The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is
reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and
addresses of Securityholders of each Series of Securities and shall otherwise
comply with TIA Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company
shall furnish to the Trustee at least ten days before each interest payment

                                       12

<PAGE>

date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing a list, in
such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the
names and addresses of Securityholders of each Series of Securities.

         Section 2.8. Transfer and Exchange.

                  Where Securities of a Series are presented to the Registrar
with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal
amount of Securities of the same Series, the Registrar shall register the
transfer or make the exchange if its requirements for such transactions are met.
To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Trustee shall
authenticate Securities at the Registrar's request. No service charge shall be
made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly
permitted herein), but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection
therewith (other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental charge
payable upon exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.12, 3.6 or 9.6).

                  Neither the Company nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to
issue, register the transfer of, or exchange Securities of any Series for the
period beginning at the opening of business 15 days immediately preceding the
mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of that Series selected for
redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or
(b) to register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any Series selected,
called or being called for redemption as a whole or the portion being redeemed
of any such Securities selected, called or being called for redemption in part.

         Section 2.9. 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 (i)
evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security
and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be 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 upon its request the Trustee shall
authenticate and make available for delivery, 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.

                  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 2.9,
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
expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

                                       13

<PAGE>

                  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 by anyone,
and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Securities of that 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 2.10. Outstanding Securities.

                  The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities
authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to
it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest on a Global Security
effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof and those
described in this Section as not outstanding.

                  If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.9, it ceases
to be outstanding until the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the
replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser.

                  If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or
an Affiliate of any thereof) holds on the Maturity of Securities of a Series
money sufficient to pay such Securities payable on that date, then on and after
that date such Securities of the Series cease to be outstanding and interest on
them ceases to accrue.

                  A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the
Company or an Affiliate holds the Security.

                  In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal
amount of outstanding Securities have given any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, the principal amount of a
Discount Security that shall be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes shall
be the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the
date of such determination upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity
thereof pursuant to Section 6.2.

         Section 2.11. Treasury Securities.

                  In determining whether the Holders of the required principal
amount of Securities of a Series have concurred in any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, Securities of a Series
owned by the Company or an Affiliate shall be disregarded, except that for the
purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any
such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver only
Securities of a Series that the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so
disregarded.

         Section 2.12. Temporary Securities.

                  Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the
Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities upon
a Company Order. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of
definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers
appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company
shall prepare and the Trustee upon request shall authenticate definitive
Securities of the same Series and date of maturity in exchange for temporary
Securities. Until so exchanged, temporary securities shall have the same rights
under this Indenture as the definitive Securities.

         Section 2.13. Cancellation.

                  The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee
for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the
Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer,
exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Securities surrendered for
transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy such
canceled Securities (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange
Act) and deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Company, unless the
Company otherwise directs. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace
Securities that it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

         Section 2.14. Defaulted Interest.

                  If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on a Series
of Securities, it shall pay the defaulted interest, plus, to the extent
permitted by law, any interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the persons
who are Securityholders of the Series on a subsequent special record date. The
Company shall fix the record date and payment date. At least 30 days before the
record date, the Company shall mail to the Trustee and to each Securityholder of
the Series a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount
of interest to be paid. The Company may pay defaulted interest in any other
lawful manner.

         Section 2.15. Global Securities.

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

                  2.15.2. Transfer and Exchange. Notwithstanding any provisions
to the contrary contained in Section 2.8 of the Indenture and in addition
thereto, any Global Security shall be exchangeable pursuant to Section 2.8 of
the Indenture for Securities registered in the names of Holders other than the
Depository for such Security or its nominee only if (i) such Depository notifies
the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such
Global Security or if at any time such Depository ceases to be a clearing agency
registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, the Company fails to
appoint a successor Depository within 90 days of such event, (ii) the Company
executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate to the effect that
such Global Security shall be so exchangeable or (iii) an Event of Default with
respect to the Securities represented by such Global Security shall have
happened and be

                                       15

continuing. Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding
sentence shall be exchangeable for Securities registered in such names as the
Depository shall direct in writing in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
principal amount of the Global Security with like tenor and terms.

                  Except as provided in this Section 2.15.2, a Global Security
may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depository with respect to such
Global Security to a nominee of such Depository, by a nominee of such Depository
to such Depository or another nominee of such Depository or by the Depository or
any such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such a successor
Depository.

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

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

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

                  2.15.5. Payments. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this
Indenture, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.2, payment of
the principal of and interest, if any, on any Global Security shall be made to
the Holder thereof.

                  2.15.6. Consents, Declaration and Directions. Except as
provided in subparagraph 2.15.5, the Company, the Trustee and any Agent shall
treat a person as the Holder of such principal amount of outstanding Securities
of such Series represented by a Global Security as shall be specified in a
written statement of the Depository with respect to such Global Security, for
purposes of obtaining any consents, declarations, waivers or directions required
to be given by the Holders pursuant to this Indenture.

         Section 2.16. CUSIP Numbers.

                  The Company in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers
(if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers in
notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice
may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers
either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a
redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other elements of
identification printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be
affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

                                   REDEMPTION

         Section 3.1. Notice to Trustee.

                  The Company may, with respect to any Series of Securities,
reserve the right to redeem and pay the Series of Securities or may covenant to
redeem and pay the Series of Securities or any part thereof prior to the Stated
Maturity thereof at such time and on such terms as provided for in such
Securities. If a Series of Securities is redeemable and the Company wants or is
obligated to redeem prior to the Stated Maturity thereof all or part of the
Series of Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, it shall notify
the Trustee of the redemption date and the principal amount of Series of
Securities to be redeemed. The Company shall give the notice at least 45 days
before the redemption date (or such shorter notice as may be acceptable to the
Trustee).

         Section 3.2. Selection of Securities to be Redeemed.

                  Unless otherwise indicated for a particular Series by a Board
Resolution, a supplemental indenture or an Officers' Certificate, if less than
all the Securities of a Series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the
Securities of the Series to be redeemed in any manner that the Trustee deems
fair and appropriate. The Trustee shall make the selection from Securities of
the Series outstanding not previously called for redemption. The Trustee may
select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities of the Series that
have denominations larger than $1,000. Securities of the Series and portions of
them it selects shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 or,
with respect to Securities of any Series issuable in other denominations
pursuant to Section 2.2.10, the minimum principal denomination for each Series
and integral multiples thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to
Securities of a Series called for redemption also apply to portions of
Securities of that Series called for redemption.

         Section 3.3. Notice of Redemption.

                  Unless otherwise indicated for a particular Series by Board
Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officers' Certificate, at
least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company
shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Holder whose
Securities are to be redeemed and if any Bearer Securities are outstanding,
publish on one occasion a notice in an Authorized Newspaper.

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

                  (a)      the redemption date;

                  (b)      the redemption price;

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

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

                                       17

<PAGE>

                  (e)      that interest on Securities of the Series called for
         redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; and

                  (f)      any other information as may be required by the terms
         of the particular Series or the Securities of a Series being redeemed.

                  At the Company's request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Company's name and at its expense.

         Section 3.4. Effect of Notice of Redemption.

                  Once notice of redemption is mailed or published as provided
in Section 3.3, Securities of a Series called for redemption become due and
payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price. A notice of
redemption may not be conditional. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such
Securities shall be paid at the redemption price plus accrued interest to the
redemption date.

         Section 3.5. Deposit of Redemption Price.

                  On or before the redemption date, the Company shall deposit
with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and
accrued interest, if any, on all Securities to be redeemed on that date.

         Section 3.6. Securities Redeemed in Part.

                  Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the
Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder a new Security of the same Series and
the same maturity equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the
Security surrendered.

                                  ARTICLE IV.
                                  COVENANTS

         Section 4.1. Payment of Principal and Interest.

                  The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the
Holders of each Series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the
principal of and interest, if any, on the Securities of that Series in
accordance with the terms of such Securities and this Indenture.

         Section 4.2. SEC Reports.

                  The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 15 days after
it files them with the SEC copies of the annual reports and of the information,
documents, and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing
as the SEC may by rules and regulations prescribe) which the Company is required
to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. The
Company also shall comply with the other provisions of TIA Section 314(a).

                  The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after
the end of each fiscal year of the Company, an Officers' Certificate stating
that a review of the activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the
preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing
Officers with a view to determining whether the Company has kept, observed,
performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further
stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of
his knowledge the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and
every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the
performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions hereof
(or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such
Defaults or Events of Default of which he may have knowledge).

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

         Section 4.4. Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.

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

         Section 4.5. Corporate Existence.

                  Subject to Article V, the Company will do or cause to be done
all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate
existence and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each Significant
Subsidiary in accordance with the respective organizational documents of each
Significant Subsidiary and the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and
franchises of the Company and its Significant Subsidiaries; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or
franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any Significant
Subsidiary, if the Board of Trustees shall determine that the preservation
thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and
its Subsidiaries taken as a whole and that the loss thereof is not adverse in
any material respect to the Holders.

         Section 4.6. Taxes.

                  The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Significant
Subsidiaries to, pay prior to delinquency all taxes, assessments and
governmental levies, except as contested in good faith and by appropriate
proceedings.

convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets
to, any person (a "successor person"), and may not permit any person to merge

         partnership, trust or other entity organized and validly existing under
         the laws of any U.S. domestic jurisdiction and expressly assumes the
         Company's obligations on the Securities and under this Indenture and

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

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

                  Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, lease,
conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company in accordance with Section 5.1, the successor corporation formed by such
consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged or to which such sale,
lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be
substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under
this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor person has been named
as the Company herein; provided, however, that the predecessor Company in the
case of a sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition shall not be released
from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest, if any, on the
Securities.

                              DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

         Section 6.1.      Events of Default.

         period of 30 days); or

                  (b)      default in the payment of the principal of any
         Security of that Series at its Maturity; or

         when and as due in respect of any Security of that Series; or

                  (d)      default in the performance or breach of any covenant

         warranty that has been included in this Indenture solely for the
         benefit of Series of Securities other than that Series), which default
         continues uncured for a period of 60 days after there has been given,
         by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to
         the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal
         amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series a written notice
         specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and
         stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder; or

                  (e)      the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries
         pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

                           (i)      commences a voluntary case,

                           (ii)     consents to the entry of an order for relief

                           (v)      generally is unable to pay its debts as the
                  same become due; or

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

                           (i)      is for relief against the Company or any of
                  its Significant Subsidiaries in an involuntary case,

                           (ii)     appoints a Custodian of the Company or any

<PAGE>

                  (g)      any other Event of Default provided with respect to
         Securities of that Series, which is specified in a Board Resolution, a
         supplemental indenture hereto or an Officers' Certificate, in
         accordance with subparagraph 2.2.19.

                  The term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11, U.S. Code or any

         Section 6.2.      Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

                  If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any
Series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of
Default referred to in Section 6.1(e) or (f)) then in every such case the
Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
outstanding Securities of that Series may declare the principal amount (or, if
any Securities of that Series are Discount Securities, such portion of the
principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such Securities) of and
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all of the Securities of that Series to
be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to
the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal
amount (or specified amount) and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall
become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section
6.1(e) or (f) shall occur, the principal amount (or specified amount) of and
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Securities shall ipso
facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other
act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

                  At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with
respect to any Series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment
of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article
VI provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding
Securities of that Series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may
rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

                  (a)      the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a
         sum sufficient to pay

                           (i)      all overdue interest, if any, on all
                  Securities of that Series,

                           (ii)     the principal of any Securities of that
                  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,

                           (iii)    to the extent that payment of such interest
                  is lawful, interest upon any overdue principal and overdue
                  interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such
                  Securities, and

                           (iv)     all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee
                  hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses,
                  disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
                  counsel;

and

                                       22
<PAGE>

                  (b)      all Events of Default with respect to Securities of
         that Series, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities
         of that Series which have become due solely by such declaration of
         acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.13.

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

         Section 6.3.      Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement
                           by Trustee.

                  The Company covenants that if

                  (a)      default is made in the payment of any interest on any
         Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default
         continues for a period of 30 days, or

                  (b)      default is made in the payment of principal of any
         Security at the Maturity thereof, or

                  (c)      default is made in the deposit of any sinking fund
         payment when and as due by the terms of a Security,

then, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit
of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such
Securities for principal and interest and, to the extent that payment of such
interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal or any
overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities,
and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover
the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

                  If the Company fails 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 or any other obligor upon such Securities
and collect the moneys adjudged or deemed to be payable in the manner provided
by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such
Securities, wherever situated.

                  If an Event of Default with respect to any Securities of any
Series occurs and is 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 6.4.      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

                                       23
<PAGE>

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 and interest 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 the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
         advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) 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
         amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
         and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other
         amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7.

                  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.

         Section 6.5.      Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of
                           Securities.

                  All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the
Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession
of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating
thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in
its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of 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 of the Securities in respect of which such
judgment has been recovered.

         Section 6.6.      Application of Money Collected.

                  Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article VI
shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the
Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal
or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the
payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

         First: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7;
         and

                                       24
<PAGE>

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

                  Third:  To the Company.

         Section 6.7.      Limitation on Suits.

                  No Holder of any Security of any Series 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

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

                  (b)      the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount
         of the outstanding Securities of that Series shall have made written
         request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such
         Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

                  (c)      such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee
         reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be
         incurred in compliance with such request;

                  (d)      the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such
         notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such
         proceeding; and

                  (e)      no direction inconsistent with such written request
         has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders
         of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that
         Series;

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have
any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision
of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of
such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any
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 such
Holders.

         Section 6.8.      Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal
                           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 interest, if any, on
such Security on the Stated Maturity or Stated 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.

<PAGE>

         Section 6.9.      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 has been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has 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 Trustee and the Holders shall
be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and
thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue
as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

         Section 6.10.     Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

                  Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement
or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in Section 2.9, 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 6.11.     Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

                  No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any
Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default
shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event
of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this
Article VI 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 6.12.     Control by Holders.

                  The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
outstanding Securities of any 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 that

                  (a)      such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule
         of law or with this Indenture,

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

                  (c)      subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the Trustee
         shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the
         Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee,
         determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in
         personal liability.

         Section 6.13.     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 in the payment of the principal of
or interest on any Security of such Series (provided, however, that the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series
may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment
default that resulted from such acceleration). Upon any such waiver, such
Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall
be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

         Section 6.14.     Undertaking for Costs.

                  All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any
Security 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 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 6.14 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
principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series, or to any suit
instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of
or interest on any Security on or after the Stated Maturity or Stated Maturities
expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the redemption
date).

                                   ARTICLE VII.
                                     TRUSTEE

         Section 7.1.      Duties of Trustee.

                  (a)      If an Event of Default has occurred and is
         continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in
         it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its
         exercise as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances
         in the conduct of his own affairs.

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

                           (i)      The Trustee need perform only those duties
                  that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no
                  others.

                           (ii)     In the absence of bad faith on its part, the
                  Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
                  statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed
                  therein, upon Officers' Certificates or Opinions of Counsel
                  furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
                  this Indenture;

                                       27
<PAGE>

                  however, in the case of any such Officers' Certificates or
                  Opinions of Counsel which by any provisions hereof are
                  specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the
                  Trustee shall examine such Officers' Certificates and Opinions
                  of Counsel to determine whether or not they conform to the
                  requirements of this Indenture.

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

                           (i)      This paragraph does not limit the effect of
                  paragraph (b) of this Section.

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

                           (iii)    The Trustee shall not be liable with respect
                  to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it
                  with respect to Securities of any Series in good faith in
                  accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in
                  principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such Series
                  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.

                  (d)      Every provision of this Indenture that in any way
         relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraph (a), (b) and (c) of this
         Section 7.1.

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

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

                  (g)      No provision of this Indenture shall require the
         Trustee to risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial
         liability in the performance of any of its duties, 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 is not reasonably assured to it.

                  (h)      The Paying Agent, the Registrar and any
         authenticating agent shall be entitled to the protections, immunities
         and standard of care as are set forth in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of
         this Section with respect to the Trustee.

         Section 7.2.      Rights of Trustee.

                  (a)      The Trustee may rely on and shall be protected in
         acting or refraining from acting upon any document believed by it to be
         genuine and to have been signed or

                                       28
<PAGE>

         presented by the proper person. The Trustee need not investigate any
         fact or matter stated in the document.

                  (b)      Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it
         may require an Officers' Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. The
         Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in
         good faith in reliance on such Officers' Certificate or Opinion of
         Counsel.

                  (c)      The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be
         responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed
         with due care. No Depository shall be deemed an agent of the Trustee
         and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any act or omission by any
         Depository.

                  (d)      The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it
         takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized
         or within its rights or powers.

                  (e)      The Trustee may consult with counsel and the 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.

                  (f)      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 of the Holders of Securities unless such
         Holders 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.

         Section 7.3.      Individual Rights of Trustee.

                  The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become
the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or an
Affiliate with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent
may do the same with like rights. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10
and 7.11.

         Section 7.4.      Trustee's Disclaimer.

                  The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or
adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for
the Company's use of the proceeds from the Securities and it shall not be
responsible for any statement in the Securities other than its authentication.

         Section 7.5.      Notice of Defaults.

                  If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with
respect to the Securities of any Series and if it is known to a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder of the
Securities of that Series and, if any Bearer Securities are outstanding, publish
on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper, notice of a Default or Event of
Default within 90 days after it occurs or, if later, after a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee has

                                       29
<PAGE>

knowledge of such Default or Event of Default. Except in the case of a Default
or Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Security of
any Series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as its corporate
trust committee or a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith
determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Securityholders of
that Series.

         Section 7.6.      Reports by Trustee to Holders.

                  Within 60 days after May 15 in each year, the Trustee shall
transmit by mail to all Securityholders, as their names and addresses appear on
the register kept by the Registrar and, if any Bearer Securities are
outstanding, publish in an Authorized Newspaper, a brief report dated as of such
May 15, in accordance with, and to the extent required under, TIA Section 313.

                  A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to
Securityholders of any Series shall be filed with the SEC and each stock
exchange on which the Securities of that Series are listed. The Company shall
promptly notify the Trustee when Securities of any Series are listed on any
stock exchange.

         Section 7.7.      Compensation and Indemnity.

                  The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services. The Trustee's compensation shall not
be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The
Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it. Such expenses shall include the
reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee's agents and counsel.

                  The Company shall indemnify the Trustee (including the cost of
defending itself) against any loss, liability or expense incurred by it except
as set forth in the next paragraph in the performance of its duties under this
Indenture as Trustee or Agent. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of
any claim for which it may seek indemnity. The Company shall defend the claim
and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate
counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such
counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. This indemnification shall
apply to officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents of the Trustee.

                  The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify
against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee or by any officer,
director, employee, shareholder or agent of the Trustee through negligence or
bad faith.

                  To secure the Company's payment obligations in this Section
7.7, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities of any Series on all
money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to
pay principal and interest on particular Securities of that Series.

                  When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an
Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(e) or (f) occurs, the expenses and the
compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

         Section 7.8.      Replacement of Trustee.

                  A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee's
acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.8.

                  The Trustee may resign with respect to the Securities of one
or more Series by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Securities of any Series may remove the Trustee with
respect to that Series by so notifying the Trustee and the Company. The Company
may remove the Trustee with respect to Securities of one or more Series if:

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

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

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

                  (d)      the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

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

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

                  If the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any one or
more Series fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Securityholder of the
applicable Series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

                  A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Immediately after that,
the retiring Trustee shall transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the
successor Trustee subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.7, the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the
successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee
with respect to each Series of Securities for which it is acting as Trustee
under this Indenture. A successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession
to each Securityholder of each such Series and, if any Bearer Securities are
outstanding, publish such notice on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper.
Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.8, the
Company's obligations under Section 7.7 hereof shall continue for the benefit of
the retiring trustee with respect to reasonable expenses and liabilities
incurred by it prior to such replacement.

         Section 7.9.      Successor Trustee by Merger, Etc.

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

         Section 7.10.     Eligibility; Disqualification.

                  This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the
requirements of TIA Section 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee shall always
have a combined capital and surplus of at least $25,000,000 as set forth in its
most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with
TIA Section 310(b).

         Section 7.11.     Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

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

                                  ARTICLE VIII.
                     SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE; DEFEASANCE

         Section 8.1.      Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

                  This Indenture shall upon Company Order cease to be of further
effect (except as hereinafter provided in this Section 8.1), and the Trustee, at
the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when

                  (a)      either

                           (i)      all Securities theretofore authenticated and
                  delivered (other than Securities that have been destroyed,
                  lost or stolen and that have been replaced or paid) have been
                  delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

                           (ii)     all such Securities not theretofore
                  delivered to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to (i)
                  above

                                    (1)      have become due and payable, or

                                    (2)      will become due and payable at
                           their Stated Maturity within one year, or

                                    (3)      are to be called for redemption
                           within one year under arrangements satisfactory to
                           the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by
                           the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the
                           Company, or

                                       32
<PAGE>

                                    (4)      are deemed paid and discharged
                           pursuant to Section 8.3, as applicable;

and the Company, in the case of (1), (2) or (3) above, has deposited or caused
to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust an amount sufficient
for the purpose of paying and discharging the entire indebtedness on such
Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for
principal and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities
which have become due and payable on or prior to the date of such deposit) or to
the Stated Maturity or redemption date, as the case may be;

                  (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 and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
         precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and
         discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.

                  Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 7.7, and,
if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to clause (a) of
this Section, the provisions of Sections 2.5, 2.8, 2.9, 8.1, 8.2 and 8.5 shall
survive.

         Section 8.2.      Application of Trust Funds; Indemnification.

                  (a)      Subject to the provisions of Section 8.5, all money
         deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.1, all money and U.S.
         Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations deposited with
         the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.3 or 8.4 and all money received by
         the Trustee in respect of U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign
         Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section
         8.3 or 8.4, shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance
         with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the
         payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the
         Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine,
         to the persons entitled thereto, of the principal and interest for
         whose payment such money has been deposited with or received by the
         Trustee or to make mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous
         payments as contemplated by Sections 8.3 or 8.4.

                  (b)      The Company shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee
         against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against
         U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations deposited
         pursuant to Sections 8.3 or 8.4 or the interest and principal received
         in respect of such obligations other than any payable by or on behalf
         of Holders.

                  (c)      The Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from
         time to time upon Company Request any U.S. Government Obligations or
         Foreign Government Obligations or money held by it as provided in
         Sections 8.3 or 8.4 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized
         firm of independent certified public accountants expressed in a written
         certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are then in excess of
         the amount thereof which then would have been required to be deposited
         for the purpose for which

                                       33
<PAGE>

         such U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations or
         money were deposited or received. This provision shall not authorize
         the sale by the Trustee of any U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign
         Government Obligations held under this Indenture.

         Section 8.3.      Legal Defeasance of Securities of any Series.

                  Unless this Section 8.3 is otherwise specified, pursuant to
subparagraph 2.2.21, to be inapplicable to Securities of any Series, the Company
shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness on all the
outstanding Securities of such Series on the 91st day after the date of the
deposit referred to in subparagraph (c)(1) hereof, and the provisions of this
Indenture, as it relates to such outstanding Securities of such Series, shall no
longer be in effect (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall, at
Company Request, execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except as
to:

                  (a)      the rights of Holders of Securities of such Series to
         receive, from the trust funds described in subparagraph (c)(1) hereof,
         (i) payment of the principal of and each installment of principal of
         and interest on the outstanding Securities of such Series on the Stated
         Maturity of such principal or installment of principal or interest and

                  violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or

                  has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling,
                  or (ii) since the date of execution of this Indenture, there
                  has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in
                  either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion
                  of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the Securities
                  of such Series will not recognize income, gain or loss for
                  Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit,
                  defeasance and discharge and will be subject to Federal income
                  tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same

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

                           (6)      such deposit shall not result in the trust

                  (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as

subparagraph 2.2.21 to be inapplicable to Securities of any Series, on and after
the 91st day after the date of the deposit referred to in subparagraph (a)
hereof, the Company may omit to comply with any term, provision or condition set
forth under Sections 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, and 5.1 as well as any additional
covenants contained in a supplemental indenture hereto for a particular Series
of Securities or a Board Resolution or an Officers' Certificate delivered
pursuant to subparagraph 2.2.21 (and the failure to comply with any such
covenants shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under Section 6.1)
and the occurrence of any event described in clause (e) of Section

                                       35

         currencies as shall then be legal tender in the United States) and/or
         U.S. Government Obligations, or (ii) in the case of Securities of such
         Series denominated in a Foreign Currency (other than a composite
         currency), money and/or Foreign Government Obligations, which through
         the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof, in accordance
         with their terms, will provide (and without reinvestment and assuming
         no tax liability will be imposed on such Trustee), not later than one
         day before the due date of any payment of money, an amount in cash,
         sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
         independent certified public accountants expressed in a written
         certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay principal and
         interest, if any, on and any mandatory sinking fund in respect of the
         Securities of such Series on the dates such installments of interest or
         principal are due;

                  (b)      Such deposit will not result in a breach or violation
         of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or any other
         agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it
         is bound;

                  (c)      No Default or Event of Default with respect to the
         Securities of such Series shall have occurred and be continuing on the
         date of such deposit or during the period ending on the 91st day after
         such date;

                  (d)      the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
         Opinion of Counsel confirming that Holders of the Securities of such
         Series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax
         purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject
         to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at
         the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and
         defeasance had not occurred;

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

                  (f)      The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
         Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
         conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the defeasance

remains unclaimed for two

                                       36

years. After that, Securityholders entitled to the money must look to the
Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property
law designates another person.

                             AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS

         Section 9.1.      Without Consent of Holders.

                  The Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this
Indenture or the Securities of one or more Series without the consent of any
Securityholder:

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

                  (b)      to comply with Article V;

                  (c)      to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition
         to or in place of certificated Securities, and to convey, transfer,
         assign, mortgage or pledge to the Trustee as security for the
         Securities of one or more Series any property or assets;

                  (d)      to make any change that does not adversely affect the
         rights of any Securityholder;

                  (e)      to provide for the issuance of and establish the form
         and terms and conditions of Securities of any Series as permitted by
         this Indenture;

                  (f)      to evidence and provide for the acceptance of
         appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the
         Securities of one or more Series and to add 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; or

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

         Section 9.2.      With Consent of Holders.

                  The Company and the Trustee may enter into a supplemental
indenture with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in
principal amount of the outstanding Securities of each Series affected by such
supplemental indenture (including consents obtained in connection with a tender
offer or exchange offer for the Securities of such Series), for the purpose of
adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in
any manner the rights of the Securityholders of each such Series. Except as
provided in Section 6.13, the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount
of the outstanding Securities of each Series affected by such waiver by notice
to the Trustee (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or
exchange offer for the Securities of such Series) may waive compliance by the
Company with any provision of this Indenture or the Securities with respect to
such Series.

                                       37
<PAGE>

                  It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of
Securities under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed
supplemental indenture or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent
approves the substance thereof. After a supplemental indenture or waiver under
this Section 9.2 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders of
Securities affected thereby and, if any Bearer Securities affected thereby are
outstanding, publish on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper, a notice
briefly describing the supplemental indenture or waiver. Any failure by the
Company to mail or publish such notice, or any defect therein, shall not,
however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental
indenture or waiver.

                  An amendment under this Section 9.2 or Section 9.1 may not
make any change that adversely affects the rights under Article XII of any
holder of Senior Indebtedness then outstanding unless the requisite holders of
such Senior Indebtedness consent to such change pursuant to the terms of such
Senior Indebtedness.

         Section 9.3.      Limitations.

                  Nothwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of each
Securityholder affected, an amendment or waiver may not:

                  (a)      change the amount of Securities whose Holders must
         consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

                  (b)      reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of
         interest (including default interest) on any Security;

                  (c)      reduce the principal or change the Stated Maturity of
         any Security or reduce the amount of, or postpone the date fixed for,
         the payment of any sinking fund or analogous obligation;

                  (d)      reduce the principal amount of Discount Securities
         payable upon acceleration of the maturity thereof;

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

                  (f)      make the principal of or interest, if any, on any
         Security payable in any currency other than that stated in the
         Security;

                  (g)      make any change in Sections 6.8, 6.13, 9.3 (this
         sentence), 10.15 or 10.16; or

                  (h)      waive a redemption payment with respect to any
         Security or change any of the provisions with respect to the redemption
         of any Securities.

         Section 9.4.      Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.

                  Every amendment to this Indenture or the Securities of one or
more Series shall be set forth in a supplemental indenture hereto that complies
with the TIA as then in effect.

         Section 9.5.      Revocation and Effect of Consents.

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

                  Any amendment or waiver once effective shall bind every
Securityholder of each Series affected by such amendment or waiver unless it is
of the type described in any of clauses (a) through (h) of Section 9.3. In that
case, the amendment or waiver shall bind each Holder of a Security who has
consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a
Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Security.

         Section 9.6.      Notation on or Exchange of Securities.

                  The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an
amendment or waiver on any Security of any Series thereafter authenticated. The
Company in exchange for Securities of that Series may issue and the Trustee
shall authenticate upon request new Securities of that Series that reflect the
amendment or waiver.

         Section 9.7.      Trustee Protected.

                  In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by,
any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modifications
thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled
to receive, and (subject to Section 7.1) 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 shall sign
all supplemental indentures, except that the Trustee need not sign any
supplemental indenture that adversely affects its rights.

                                   ARTICLE X.
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         Section 10.1.     Trust Indenture Act Controls.

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

reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Securityholder by accepting a

Securities shall bind its successor. All agreements of the Trustee in this

         Section 10.15.    Securities in a Foreign Currency.

                  Unless otherwise specified in a Board Resolution, a
supplemental indenture hereto or an Officers' Certificate delivered pursuant to
Section 2.2 of this Indenture with respect to a particular Series of Securities,
whenever for purposes of this Indenture any action may be taken by the Holders
of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of Securities of all
Series or all Series affected by a particular action at the time outstanding
and, at such time, there are outstanding Securities of any Series which are
denominated in a coin or currency other than Dollars (including Euros), then the
principal amount of Securities of such Series which shall be deemed to be
outstanding for the purpose of taking such action shall be that amount of
Dollars that could be obtained for such amount at the Market Exchange Rate at
such time. For purposes of this Section 10.15, "Market Exchange Rate" shall mean
the noon Dollar buying rate in New York City for cable transfers of that
currency as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. If such Market
Exchange Rate is not available for any reason with respect to such currency, the
Trustee shall use, in its sole discretion and without liability on its part,
such quotation of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, as of the most recent
available date, or quotations from one or more major banks in the City of New
York, London or in the country of issue of the currency in question or such
other quotations as the Trustee, upon consultation with the Company, shall deem
appropriate. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply in determining the
equivalent principal amount in respect of Securities of a Series denominated in
currency other than Dollars in connection with any action taken by Holders of
Securities pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

                  All decisions and determinations of the Trustee regarding the
Market Exchange Rate or any alternative determination provided for in the
preceding paragraph shall be in its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of
manifest error, be conclusive to the extent permitted by law for all purposes
and irrevocably binding upon the Company and all Holders.

         Section 10.16.    Judgment Currency.

                  The Company agrees, to the fullest extent that it may
effectively do so under applicable law, that (a) if for the purpose of obtaining
judgment in any court it is necessary to convert the sum due in respect of the
principal of or interest or other amount on the Securities of any Series (the
"Required Currency") into a currency in which a judgment will be rendered (the
"Judgment Currency"), the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in
accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in the City
of New York the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the day on which
final unappealable judgment is entered, unless such day is not a New York
Banking Day, then, the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in
accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in the City
of New York the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the New York
Banking Day preceding the day on which final unappealable judgment is entered
and (b) its obligations under this Indenture to make payments in the Required
Currency (i) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, any recovery
pursuant to any judgment (whether or not entered in accordance with subsection
(a)), in any currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent
that such tender or recovery shall result in the actual receipt, by the payee,
of the full amount of the Required Currency expressed to be payable in respect
of such payments, (ii) shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional
cause of action for the purpose of

                                       43
<PAGE>

recovering in the Required Currency the amount, if any, by which such actual
receipt shall fall short of the full amount of the Required Currency so
expressed to be payable, and (iii) shall not be affected by judgment being
obtained for any other sum due under this Indenture. For purposes of the
foregoing, "New York Banking Day" means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or a
legal holiday in the City of New York on which banking institutions are
authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close.

                                  ARTICLE XI.
                                  SINKING FUNDS

         Section 11.1.     Applicability of Article.

                  The provisions of this Article XI shall be applicable to any
sinking fund for the retirement of the Securities of a Series, except as
otherwise permitted or required by any form of Security of such Series issued
pursuant to this Indenture.

                  The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by
the terms of the Securities of any Series is herein referred to as a "mandatory
sinking fund payment" and any other amount provided for by the terms of
Securities of such Series is herein referred to as an "optional sinking fund
payment." If provided for by the terms of Securities of any Series, the cash
amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in
Section 11.2. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of
Securities of any Series as provided for by the terms of the Securities of such
Series.

         Section 11.2.     Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with
                           Securities.

                  The Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part of any
sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of any Series to be made
pursuant to the terms of such Securities (1) deliver outstanding Securities of
such Series to which such sinking fund payment is applicable (other than any of
such Securities previously called for mandatory sinking fund redemption) and (2)
apply as credit Securities of such Series to which such sinking fund payment is
applicable and which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company
pursuant to the terms of such Series of Securities (except pursuant to any
mandatory sinking fund) or through the application of permitted optional sinking
fund payments or other optional redemptions pursuant to the terms of such
Securities, provided that such Securities have not been previously so credited.
Such Securities shall be received by the Trustee, together with an Officers'
Certificate with respect thereto, not later than 15 days prior to the date on
which the Trustee begins the process of selecting Securities for redemption, and
shall be credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the price specified in such
Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount
of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. If as a result of the
delivery or credit of Securities in lieu of cash payments pursuant to this
Section 11.2, the principal amount of Securities of such Series to be redeemed
in order to exhaust the aforesaid cash payment shall be less than $100,000, the
Trustee need not call Securities of such Series for redemption, except upon
receipt of a Company Order that such action be taken, and such cash payment
shall be held by the Trustee or a Paying Agent and applied to the next
succeeding sinking fund payment, provided, however, that the Trustee or such
Paying Agent shall from time to time upon receipt of a Company Order pay over
and deliver to the Company

                                       44
<PAGE>

any cash payment so being held by the Trustee or such Paying Agent upon delivery
by the Company to the Trustee of Securities of that Series purchased by the
Company having an unpaid principal amount equal to the cash payment required to
be released to the Company.

         Section 11.3.     Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

                  Not less than 45 days (unless otherwise indicated in the Board
Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officers' Certificate in respect of
a particular Series of Securities) prior to each sinking fund payment date for
any Series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund
payment for that Series pursuant to the terms of that Series, the portion
thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion
thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting of
Securities of that Series pursuant to Section 11.2. and the optional amount, if
any, to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and
the Company shall thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein specified.
Not less than 30 days (unless otherwise indicated in the Board Resolution,
Officers' Certificate or supplemental indenture in respect of a particular
Series of Securities) before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee
shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date
in the manner specified in Section 3.2 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 3.3. Such notice having been duly given, the
redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner
stated in Sections 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6.

                                  ARTICLE XII.
                           SUBORDINATION OF SECURITIES

         Section 12.1.     Agreement of Subordination.

                  The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of
Securities issued hereunder by his or her acceptance thereof likewise covenants
and agrees, that all Securities shall be issued subject to the provisions of
this Article XII; and each Person holding any Security, whether upon original
issue or upon transfer, assignment or exchange thereof, accepts and agrees to be
bound by such provisions.

                  The payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest
on all Securities (including, but not limited to, the redemption price with
respect to the Securities called for redemption in accordance with Article 3 as
provided in the Indenture) issued hereunder shall, to the extent and in the
manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and subject in right of payment to
the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, whether outstanding at the
date of this Indenture or thereafter incurred.

                  No provision of this Article XII shall prevent the occurrence
of any Default or Event of Default hereunder.

         Section 12.2.     Payments to Holders.

                  No payment shall be made with respect to the principal of, or
premium, if any, or interest on the Securities (including, but not limited to,
the redemption price with respect to the

                                       45
<PAGE>

Securities to be called for redemption in accordance with Article III as
provided in the Indenture), except payments and distributions made by the
Trustee as permitted by the first or second paragraph of Section 12.5, if:

                  (i) a default in the payment of principal, premium, interest
                  or other obligations due on any Senior Indebtedness occurs and
                  is continuing (or, in the case of Senior Indebtedness for
                  which there is a period of grace, in the event of such a
                  default that continues beyond the period of grace, if any,
                  specified in the instrument or lease evidencing such Senior
                  Indebtedness), unless and until such default shall have been
                  cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist; or

                  (ii) a default, other than a payment default, on a Designated
                  Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing that then permits
                  holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness to accelerate
                  its maturity and the Trustee receives a notice of the default
                  (a "Payment Blockage Notice") from a Representative or the
                  Company.

                  If the Trustee receives any Payment Blockage Notice pursuant
to clause (ii) above, no subsequent Payment Blockage Notice shall be effective
for purposes of this Section 12.1 unless and until (A) at least 365 days shall
have elapsed since the initial effectiveness of the immediately prior Payment
Blockage Notice, and (B) all scheduled payments of principal, premium, if any,
and interest on the Securities that have come due have been paid in full in
cash. No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of
delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Trustee shall be, or be made, the
basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice.

                  The Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions
in respect of the Securities upon the earlier of:

                           (1)      the date upon which the default is cured or
                  waived or ceases to exist, or

                           (2)      in the case of a default referred to in
                  clause (ii) above, 179 days after notice is received if the
                  maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness has not been
                  accelerated,

unless this Article XII otherwise prohibits the payment or distribution at the
time of such payment or distribution.

                  Upon any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of
the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities,
to creditors upon any dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization
of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership or other proceedings, all amounts due or to become due upon all
Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full in cash or other payment
satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, or payment thereof in
accordance with its terms provided for in cash or other payment satisfactory to
the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment is made on account
of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities (except
payments made pursuant to Article VI from monies deposited with the Trustee
pursuant

                                       46
<PAGE>

thereto prior to commencement of proceedings for such dissolution, winding-up,
liquidation or reorganization); and upon any such dissolution or winding-up or
liquidation or reorganization of the Company or bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership or other proceeding, any payment by the Company, or distribution of
assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or
securities, to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be
entitled, except for the provision of this Article XII, shall (except as
aforesaid) be paid by the Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy,
liquidating trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution,
or by the Holders of the Securities or by the Trustee under this Indenture if
received by them or it, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness (pro rata
to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness
held by such holders, or as otherwise required by law or a court order) or their
representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any
indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Indebtedness
may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the extent
necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full, in cash or other payment
satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to
any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior
Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution or provision therefor is made
to the Holders of the Securities or to the Trustee.

                  For purposes of this Article XII, the words, "cash, property
or securities" shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as
reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation
provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the payment of which
is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Article XII with respect
to the Securities to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness which may at the
time be outstanding; provided that (i) the Senior Indebtedness is assumed by the
new corporation, if any, resulting from any reorganization or readjustment, and
(ii) the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness (other than leases which
are not assumed by the Company or the new corporation, as the case may be) are
not, without the consent of such holders, altered by such reorganization or
readjustment. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the
Company into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the
Company following the conveyance or transfer of its property as an entirety, or
substantially as an entirety, to another corporation upon the terms and
conditions provided for in Article V shall not be deemed a dissolution,
winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section 12.2
if such other corporation shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger,
conveyance or transfer, comply with the conditions stated in Article V.

                  In the event of the acceleration of the Securities because of
an Event of Default, no payment or distribution shall be made to the Trustee or
any Holder of Securities in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on the Securities (including, but not limited to, the redemption price
with respect to the Securities called for redemption in accordance with Article
III as provided in the Indenture), except payments and distributions made by the
Trustee as permitted by the first or second paragraph of Section 12.5, until all
Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory
to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or such acceleration is rescinded in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture. If payment of the Securities is
accelerated because of an Event of Default, the Company shall promptly notify
holders of Senior Indebtedness of the acceleration.

                                       47
<PAGE>

                  In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions,
any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character,
whether in cash, property or securities (including, without limitation, by way
of setoff or otherwise), prohibited by the foregoing, shall be received by the
Trustee or the Holders of the Securities before all Senior Indebtedness is paid
in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior
Indebtedness, or provision is made for such payment thereof in accordance with
its terms in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior
Indebtedness, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the
benefit of and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of Senior
Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or
trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any
Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may
appear, as calculated by the Company, for application to the payment of all
Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior
Indebtedness in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of
such Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or
distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

                  Nothing in this Section 12.2 shall apply to claims of, or
payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.7. This Section 12.2
shall be subject to the further provisions of Section 12.5.

         Section 12.3.     Subrogation of Securities.

                  Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the
rights of the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the extent of the
payments or distributions made to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness
pursuant to the provisions of this Article XII (equally and ratably with the
holders of all indebtedness of the Company which by its express terms is
subordinated to other indebtedness of the Company to substantially the same
extent as the Securities are subordinated and is entitled to like rights of
subrogation) to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive
payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company
applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until the principal, premium, if any, and
interest on the Securities shall be paid in full; and, for the purposes of such
subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders of the
Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this
Article XII, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Article XII,
to or for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness by Holders of the
Securities or the Trustee, shall, as between the Company, its creditors other
than holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, be
deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior
Indebtedness; and no payments or distributions of cash, property or securities
to or for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities pursuant to the
subrogation provisions of this Article XII, which would otherwise have been paid
to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed to be a payment by the
Company to or for the account of the Securities. It is understood that the
provisions of this Article XII are and are intended solely for the purposes of
defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities, on the one hand,
and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.

                  Nothing contained in this Article XII or elsewhere in this
Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall impair, as among the
Company, its creditors other than the

                                       48
<PAGE>

holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, the
obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the
Holders of the Securities the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on
the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance
with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the
Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company other than the holders of
the Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the
Trustee or the Holder of any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise
permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the
rights, if any, under this Article XII of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in
respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the
exercise of any such remedy.

                  Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company
referred to in this Article XII, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of
Section 7.1, and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon
any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such
bankruptcy, dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings
are pending, or a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy,
liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution,
delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Securities, for the purpose of
ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the
holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the
amount thereof or payable thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to
this Article XII.

         Section 12.4.     Authorization to Effect Subordination.

                  Each Holder of a Security by the Holder's acceptance thereof
authorizes and directs the Trustee on the Holder's behalf to take such action as
may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in
this Article XII and appoints the Trustee to act as the Holder's
attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. If the Trustee does not file a
proper proof of claim or proof of debt in the form required in any proceeding
referred to in Section 6.3 hereof at least 30 days before the expiration of the
time to file such claim, the holders of any Senior Indebtedness or their
representatives are hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on
behalf of the Holders of the Securities.

         Section 12.5.     Notice to Trustee.

                  The Company shall give prompt written notice in the form of an
Officers' Certificate to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee and to any Paying
Agent of any fact known to the Company which would prohibit the making of any
payment of monies to or by the Trustee or any Paying Agent in respect of the
Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article XII. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Article XII or any other provision of this Indenture, the
Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which
would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in
respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article XII, unless
and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written
notice thereof at the Corporate Trust Office from the Company (in the form of an
Officers' Certificate) or a Representative or a holder or holders of Senior
Indebtedness or from any trustee thereof; and before the receipt of any such
written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, shall be
entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided that if on
a date not fewer than two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the

                                       49
<PAGE>

terms hereof any such monies may become payable for any purpose (including,
without limitation, the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or
interest on any Security) the Trustee shall not have received, with respect to
such monies, the notice provided for in this Section 12.5, then, anything herein
contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and
authority to receive such monies and to apply the same to the purpose for which
they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary
which may be received by it on or after such prior date.

                  Notwithstanding anything in this Article XII to the contrary,
nothing shall prevent any payment by the Trustee to the Holders of monies
deposited with it pursuant to Section 8.1, and any such payment shall not be
subject to the provisions of Section 12.1 or 12.2.

                  The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, shall
be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a
Representative or a person representing himself to be a holder of Senior
Indebtedness (or a trustee on behalf of such holder) to establish that such
notice has been given by a Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness or
a trustee on behalf of any such holder or holders. In the event that the Trustee
determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the
right of any person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any
payment or distribution pursuant to this Article XII, the Trustee may request
such person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as
to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such person, the extent to which
such person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any
other facts pertinent to the rights of such person under this Article XII, and
if such evidence is not furnished the Trustee may defer any payment to such
person pending judicial determination as to the right of such person to receive
such payment.

         Section 12.6.     Trustee's Relation to Senior Indebtedness.

                  The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to
all the rights set forth in this Article XII in respect of any Senior
Indebtedness at any time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of
Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in Section 7.11 or elsewhere in this Indenture
shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.

                  With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the
Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and
obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article XII, and no implied
covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness
shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be
deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness and,
subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, the Trustee shall not be liable to any
holder of Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver to Holders of
Securities, the Company or any other person money or assets to which any holder
of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article XII or
otherwise.

         Section 12.7.     No Impairment of Subordination.

                  No right of any present or future holder of any Senior
Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in
any way be prejudiced or impaired by any

                                       50

act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to
act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company
with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any
knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or otherwise be charged with.

         Section 12.8.     Article Applicable to Paying Agents.

                  If at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall
have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term
"Trustee" as used in this Article XII shall (unless the context otherwise
requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within
its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were
named in this Article XII in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided,
however, that the first paragraph of Section 12.5 shall not apply to the Company
or any Affiliate of the Company if it or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent.

         Section 12.9.     Senior Indebtedness Entitled to Rely.

                  The holders of Senior Indebtedness (including, without
limitation, Designated Senior Indebtedness) shall have the right to rely upon
this Article XII, and no amendment or modification of the provisions contained
herein shall diminish the rights of such holders unless such holders shall have
agreed in writing thereto.
