shall include 



        (1)   a
statement that each individual signing such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition and the definitions herein relating thereto;

        Section 103.  Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee. 


        In
any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or
covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one
or more other such Persons as to the other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or

        Where

        Section 104.
Acts of Securityholders. 



        (a)   Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Securityholders or
Securityholders of any series may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Securityholders in person or by an agent duly appointed in
writing; and, except as 



7







 

herein
otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company or
the Guarantor or both of them. If any Securities are denominated in coin or currency other than that of the United States, then for the purposes of determining whether the Holders of the requisite
principal amount of Securities have taken any action as herein described, the principal amount of such Securities shall be deemed to be that amount of United States dollars that could be obtained for
such principal amount on the basis of the spot rate of exchange into United States dollars for the currency in which such Securities are denominated (as evidenced to the Trustee by an Officers'
Certificate) as of the date the taking of such action by the Holders of such requisite principal amount is evidenced to the Trustee as provided in the immediately preceding sentence. Such instrument
or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Securityholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution
of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 601) conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the
Company and the Guarantor, if made in the manner provided in this Section. 


        (b)   The
fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness to such execution or by the certificate of
any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof.
Where such execution is by an officer of a corporation or a member of a partnership, on behalf of such corporation or partnership, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof
of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee
deems sufficient. 


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


        (d)   If
the Company or the Guarantor shall solicit from the Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, the Company or the
Guarantor, as the case may be, may, at its option, by Board Resolution or Guarantor's Board Resolution, as applicable, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give
such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, but the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date
is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action may be given before or after the record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business
on the record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Securities Outstanding have authorized or agreed or consented to such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, and for that purpose the Securities Outstanding shall be computed as of the record date; provided that no such
authorization, agreement or consent by the
Holders on the record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date. 


        (e)   Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Security shall bind the Holder of every Security issued upon
the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company or the Guarantor in reliance thereon whether or not
notation of such action is made upon such Security.

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


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



        (1)   the
Trustee by any Securityholder or by the Company or the Guarantor shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or
with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, or 


        (2)   the
Company or the Guarantor by the Trustee or by any Securityholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (except as provided in Section 501(4) or, in
the case of a request for repayment, as specified in the Security carrying the right to repayment) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company or the Guarantor, as the case
may be, addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company
or the Guarantor, as the case may be. 




        Section 106.
Notices to Securityholders; Waiver. 


        Where
this Indenture or any Security provides for notice to Securityholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein or in such Security expressly
provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Securityholder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date,
and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Securityholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect
in any notice so mailed, to any particular
Securityholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Securityholders. Where this Indenture or any Security provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in
writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Securityholders shall be filed
with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 



        In
case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or otherwise, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to any
Securityholder when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any method of notification as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee, the Guarantor and the
Company shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice. 


        Section 107.
Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. 



        If
any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed by any of Sections 310 to 317, inclusive, of the Trust Indenture Act through the operation of
Section 318(c) thereof, such imposed duties shall control. 


        Section 108.
Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. 


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


        Section 109.
Successors and Assigns. 


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

        Section 110.
Separability Clause. 



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


        Section 111.
Benefits of Indenture. 


        Nothing
in this Indenture or in any Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, any Authenticating Agent or
Paying Agent, the Security Registrar and the Holders of Securities (or such of them as may be affected thereby), any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 



        Section 112.  Governing Law. 


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


        Section 113.
Counterparts. 


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


        Section 114.  Judgment Currency. 


        The
Company and the Guarantor each 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 premium or interest, if any, 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 New York City the Required
Currency with the Judgment Currency on the Banking Day (as defined below) immediately preceding the date on which final unappealable judgment is given and (a) its obligations under this
Indenture to make payments in the Required Currency (i) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, or 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 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, "Banking Day" means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or a
legal holiday in New York City or a day on which banking institutions in New York City are authorized or required by law or executive order to close. 


        Section 115.
Certain Rights of Holders of Preferred Securities. 


        The
Company hereby acknowledges that, to the extent specifically set forth herein, prior to a Security Exchange with respect to the Securities of any series held as trust assets of a OB
Holdings Trust, the holders of the Preferred Securities of such OB Holdings Trust shall expressly be third party beneficiaries of this Indenture. The Company further acknowledges that, prior to a
Security Exchange with respect to Securities of any series held as trust assets of a OB Holdings Trust, if the Property Trustee of such OB Holdings Trust fails to enforce its rights under this
Indenture as the holder of the Securities of a series held as trust assets of such OB Holdings Trust, any holder of the Preferred Securities of such OB Holdings Trust may institute legal proceedings
directly against the Company to 


10








 



enforce
such Property Trustee's rights under this Indenture without first instituting any legal proceedings against such Property Trustee or any other Person.

Resolution authorizes a specific officer or officers to approve a form of Security, a certificate of such officer or officers approving the form of Security attached thereto. Any form of Security

        Section 204. Securities Issuable in the Form of a Global Security. 



        (a)   If
the Company shall establish pursuant to Sections 202 and 301 that the Securities of a particular series are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one
or more Global Securities, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee or its agent shall, in accordance with Section 303 and the Company Request delivered to the Trustee or its agent
thereunder, authenticate and deliver, such Global Security or Securities, which (i) shall represent, and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of, the
Outstanding Securities of such series to be represented by such Global Security or Securities, or such portion thereof as the Company shall specify in a Company Request, (ii) shall be
registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Security or Securities or its nominee, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee or its agent to the Depositary or pursuant to the
Depositary's instruction and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect: 



"Unless
and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for the individual Securities represented hereby, this Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of
the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such
successor Depositary." 




        (b)   Notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Section 204 or of Section 305, and subject to the provisions of paragraph (c) below, unless the terms
of a Global Security expressly permit such Global Security to be exchanged in whole or in part for individual Securities, a Global Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part and in the
manner provided in Section 305, only to a nominee of the Depositary for such Global Security, or to the Depositary, or a successor Depositary for such Global Security selected or approved by
the Company, or to a nominee of such successor Depositary. 


        (c) 



      (i)
If at any time the Depositary for a Global Security notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or if at any time the
Depositary for the Securities for such series ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or other applicable statute or regulation, the Company
shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to such Global Security. If a successor Depositary for such Global Security is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company
receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company 




12







 


will
execute, and the Trustee or its agent, upon receipt of a Company Request for the authentication and delivery of individual Securities of such series in exchange for such Global Security, will
authenticate and deliver, individual Securities of such series of like tenor and terms in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security in exchange for such Global
Security. 


         (ii)  The
Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Securities of any series or portion thereof issued or issuable in the form of one or more
Global Securities shall no longer be represented by such Global Security or Securities. In such event the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Request for the
authentication and delivery of individual Securities of such series in exchange in whole or in part for such Global Security, will authenticate and deliver individual Securities of such series of like
tenor and terms in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Security or Securities representing such series or portion thereof in exchange for such
Global Security or Securities. 


        (iii)  If
specified by the Company pursuant to Sections 202 and 301 with respect to Securities issued or issuable in the form of a Global Security, the Depositary for
such Global Security may surrender such Global Security in exchange in whole or in part for individual Securities of such series of like tenor and terms in definitive form on such terms as are
acceptable to the Company and such Depositary. Thereupon the Company shall execute, and the Trustee or its agent shall authenticate and deliver, without service charge, (1) to each Person
specified by such Depositary a new Security or Securities of the same series of like tenor and terms and of any authorized denomination as requested by such Person in aggregate principal amount equal
to and in exchange for such Person's beneficial interest in the Global Security; and (2) to such Depositary a new Global Security of like tenor and terms and in an authorized denomination equal
to the difference, if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of Securities delivered to the Holders thereof. 



        (iv)  In
any exchange provided for in any of the preceding three paragraphs, the Company will execute and the Trustee or its agent will authenticate and deliver individual
Securities in definitive registered form in authorized denominations. Upon the exchange of the entire principal amount of a Global Security for individual Securities, such Global Security shall be
canceled by the Trustee or its agent. Except as provided in the preceding paragraph, Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security pursuant to this Section shall be registered in such names and
in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Global Security, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee or the Security
Registrar. The Trustee or the Security Registrar shall deliver such Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

which, and the terms and conditions upon which, such election may be made; 


        (5)   if

        (10) any
Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series, if not set forth herein and any additions, deletions or other changes to the Events of Default set
forth herein that shall be applicable to the Securities of such series (including a provision making any Event of Default set forth herein inapplicable to the Securities of that series); 


        (11) any
covenant solely for the benefit of the Securities of such series and any additions, deletions or other changes to the provisions of Article Ten or any definitions

        (15) if

        (16) if
the Securities of the series are to have an interest deferral feature, the terms relating to such interest deferral feature; and

other terms of the series, which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture; all upon such terms as may be determined in or pursuant to a Board
Resolution or in or pursuant to a supplemental indenture with respect to such series. All Securities of the same series shall be substantially identical in tenor and effect, except as to denomination. 




        The
form of the Securities of each series shall be established pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture in or pursuant to the Board Resolution or in or pursuant to the supplemental
indenture 


16







 

creating
such series. The Securities of each series shall be distinguished from the Securities of each other series in such manner, reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, as the Board of Directors
may determine. 


        Unless
otherwise provided with respect to Securities of a particular series, the Securities of any series may only be issuable in registered form, without coupons. 


        Any
terms or provisions in respect of the Securities of any series issued under this Indenture may be determined pursuant to this Section by providing in a Board Resolution or
supplemental indenture for the method by which such terms or provisions shall be determined. 


        Section 302.  Denominations. 


        The
Securities of each series shall be issuable in such denominations and currency as shall be provided in the provisions of this Indenture or in or pursuant to the Board Resolution or
the supplemental indenture creating such series. In the absence of any such provisions with respect to the Securities of any series, the Securities of that series shall be issuable only in fully
registered form in denominations of $25 and any integral multiple thereof. 


        Section 303.  Execution, Authentication and Delivery and Dating. 


        The
Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its President, one of its Vice Presidents or its Treasurer. The signature of any of these officers
on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. 


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


        At
any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication; and
the Trustee shall, upon Company Order, authenticate and make available for delivery such Securities as in this Indenture provided and not otherwise. 


        Prior
to any such authentication and delivery, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, in addition to any Officers' Certificate and Opinion of Counsel required to be furnished to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 102, and the Board Resolution and any certificate relating to the issuance of the series of Securities required to be furnished pursuant to Section 202, an
Opinion of Counsel stating that: 



        (1)   all
instruments furnished to the Trustee conform to the requirements of the Indenture and constitute sufficient authority hereunder for the Trustee to authenticate and
deliver such Securities; 


        (2)   the
form and terms (or in connection with the issuance of medium-term Securities under Section 311, the manner of determining the terms) of such
Securities have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 



        (3)   all
laws and requirements with respect to the execution and delivery by the Company of such Securities have been complied with, the Company has the corporate power to
issue such Securities and such Securities have been duly authorized and delivered by the Company and, assuming due authentication and delivery by the Trustee, constitute legal, valid and binding
obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms (subject, as to enforcement of remedies, to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium
or other laws and legal principles affecting creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and to general equitable principles, whether applied in an action at law or in equity) 



17







 




and
entitled to the benefits of this Indenture, equally and ratably with all other Securities, if any, of such series Outstanding; and 


        (4)   such
other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request; and, if the authentication and delivery relates to a new series of Securities created by an indenture
supplemental hereto, also stating that all laws and requirements with respect to the form and execution by the Company of the supplemental indenture with respect to that series of Securities have been
complied with, the Company has corporate power to execute and deliver any such supplemental indenture and has taken all necessary corporate action for those purposes and any such supplemental
indenture has been executed and delivered and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its
terms (subject, as to enforcement of remedies, to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other laws and legal principles affecting creditors' rights
generally from time to time in effect and to general equitable principles, whether applied in an action at law or in equity). 




        The
Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue thereof will adversely affect the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this
Indenture. 


        Unless
otherwise provided in the form of Security for any series, all Securities shall be dated the date of their authentication. 


        No
Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication
substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an authorized signatory, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. 


        Section 304.
Temporary Securities. 


        Pending
the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and, upon receipt of the documents required by Section 303, together with a Company Order,
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the
tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may
determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 


        If
temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of
definitive Securities, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or
agency of the Company in a Place of Payment, without charge to the Holder; and upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of such series of authorized denominations and of like tenor and terms. Until so exchanged the temporary
Securities of such series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series. 


        Section 305.
Registration, Transfer and Exchange. 


        The
Company shall keep or cause to be kept a register (herein sometimes referred to as the "Security Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the
Company shall provide for the registration of Securities, or of Securities of a particular series, and for transfers of Securities or of Securities of such series. Any such register shall be in
written form or in any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. At all reasonable times the 


18







 

information
contained in such register or registers shall be available for inspection by the Trustee at the office or agency to be maintained by the Company as provided in Section 1002. 



        Subject
to Section 204, upon surrender for transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment, the Company shall execute, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of such series of any authorized denominations, of a
like aggregate principal amount and Stated Maturity and of like tenor and terms. 


        Subject
to Section 204, at the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of such series of any authorized denominations, of a like
aggregate principal amount and Stated Maturity and of like tenor and terms, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for
exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, the Securities which the Securityholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 


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


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



        Unless
otherwise provided in the Security to be transferred or exchanged, no service charge shall be made on any Securityholder for any transfer or exchange of Securities, but the
Company may (unless otherwise provided in such Security) require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or
exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 304 or 906 not involving any transfer. 


        The
Company shall not be required (i) to issue, transfer or exchange any Security of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business days before the day of the
mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of such series selected for redemption under 45 Section 1103 and ending at the close of business on the date of such mailing, or (ii) to
transfer or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except for the portion of such Security not so selected for redemption. 


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


        The
Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as Security Registrar for the Securities on its behalf. The Company may at any time and from time to time authorize any Person to act as
Security Registrar in place of the Trustee with respect to any series of Securities issued under this Indenture. 


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


        If
any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, or the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Security, and (ii) there is delivered to the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee such Security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of
notice to the Company, the Guarantor 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
deliver, in exchange 


19







 



for
or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor, series, Stated Maturity and principal amount, 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, 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. 


        Every
new Security issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company and the
Guarantor, 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 the same series duly issued hereunder. 


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


        Section 307.
Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 



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


        Any
interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called "Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to
be payable to the registered Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of his having been such Holder; and, except as hereinafter provided, such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the
Company or the Guarantor, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or Clause (2) below: 



        (1)   The
Company or the Guarantor may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names any such Securities (or their respective Predecessor
Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company or the Guarantor, as
the case may be, shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the
Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such
Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 nor less than
10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the
Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company or the Guarantor, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such
Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Holder of each such Security at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not less
than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted
Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their respective 



20







 

Predecessor
Securities) are registered on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2). 



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




        If
any installment of interest the Stated Maturity of which is on or prior to the Redemption Date for any Security called for redemption pursuant to Article Eleven is not paid or duly
provided for on or prior to the Redemption Date in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section, such interest shall be payable as part of the Redemption Price of such Securities. 


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


        Section 308.
Persons Deemed Owners. 


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


        Section 309.
Cancellation. 


        All
Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer, conversion or exchange or credit against a sinking fund shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be
delivered to the Trustee and, if not already canceled, shall be promptly canceled by it. The Company or the Guarantor may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously
authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company or the Guarantor may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. No
Security shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee shall return all
canceled Securities to the Company. 


        Section 310.
Computation of Interest. 


        Unless
otherwise provided as contemplated in Section 301, interest on the Securities shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months. 


        Section 311.
Medium-Term Securities. 


        Notwithstanding
any contrary provision herein, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall not be necessary for the Company to deliver to the
Trustee an Officers' Certificate, Board Resolution, supplemental indenture, Opinion of Counsel or Company Request otherwise required pursuant to Sections 202, 301 and at or prior to the time of
authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered to the Trustee or its agent at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series
to be issued; provided that any subsequent request by the Company to the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series upon original issuance shall constitute a representation and warranty by the
Company that as of the date of 


21







 



such
request, the statements made in the Officers' Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 102 shall be true and correct as if made on such date. 



        An
Officers' Certificate, supplemental indenture or Board Resolution delivered by the Company to the Trustee in the circumstances set forth in the preceding paragraph may provide that
Securities which are the subject thereof will be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or its agent on original issue from time to time upon the telephonic or written order of persons designated
in such Officers' Certificate, Board Resolution or supplemental indenture (any such telephonic instructions to be confirmed promptly in writing by such persons) and that such persons are authorized to
determine, consistent with such Officers' Certificate, supplemental indenture or Board Resolution, such terms and conditions of said Securities as are specified in such Officers' Certificate,
supplemental indenture or Board Resolution. 


        Section 312.  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 identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The
Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the "CUSIP" numbers. 


        Section 313.  Global Securities. 



        (a)   Each
Global Security authenticated under this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depositary designated by the Company for such Global Security or a nominee
thereof and delivered to such Depository or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all purposes of this Indenture. 


        (b)   Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and no transfer of a Global
Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (i) such Depositary (A) has
notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or (B) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered as such under the Exchange Act or
announces an intention permanently to cease business or does in fact do so or (ii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to such Global Security. 


        (c)   If
any Global Security is to be exchanged for other Securities or canceled in whole, it shall be surrendered by or on behalf of the Depositary or its nominee to the
Trustee, as Security Registrar, for exchange or cancellation, as provided in this Article Three. If any Global Security is to be exchanged for other Securities or canceled in part, or if another
Security is to be exchanged in whole or in part for a beneficial interest in any Global Security, in each case, as provided in Section 305, then either (i) such Global Security shall be
so surrendered for exchange or cancellation, as provided in this Article Three or (ii) the principal amount thereof shall be reduced or increased by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be
so exchanged or canceled, or equal to the principal amount of such other Security to be so exchanged for a beneficial interest therein, as the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made
on the records of the Trustee, as Security Registrar, whereupon the Trustee in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, shall instruct the Depositary or its authorized representative to make a
corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon any such surrender or adjustment of a Global Security, the Trustee shall, subject to Section 305 and as otherwise provided in this Article Three,
authenticate and deliver any Securities issuable in exchange for such Global Security (or any portion thereof) to or upon the order of, and 



22







 




registered
in such names as may be directed by, the Depositary or its authorized representative. Upon the request of the Trustee in connection with the occurrence of any of the events specified in the
preceding paragraph, the Company shall promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Securities that are not in the form of Global Securities. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely
upon any order, direction or request of the Depositary or its authorized representative which is given or made pursuant to this Article Three if such order, direction or request is given or made in
accordance with the Applicable Procedures. 


        (d)   Every
Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant
to this Article Three or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a registered Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person other
than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof, in which case such Registered Security shall be authenticated and delivered in definitive, fully registered form, without interest
coupons. 


        (e)   The
Depositary or its nominee, as registered owner of a Global Security, shall be the Holder of such Global Security for all purposes under the Indenture and the
Registered Securities, and owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall hold such interests pursuant to the Applicable Procedures. Accordingly, any such owner's beneficial interest in a
Global Security will be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or its Agent Members and such owners of
beneficial interests in a Global Security will not be considered the owners of holders thereof. 




        Section 314.  Deferrals Of Interest Payment Dates. 


        If
the Securities of a particular series are to be deposited as trust assets in a OB Holdings Trust and as specified by Section 301 with respect to the Securities of such series,
provided that no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing with respect to such Securities, the Company shall have the right, at any time or from time to time during the term of such series, to defer the payment of interest on
such Securities for such period or periods as may be specified as contemplated by Section 301 (each, an "Extension Period") during which Extension Periods the Company shall have the right to
make partial payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date. No Extension Period shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date. At the end of any such Extension Period the Company shall
pay all interest then accrued and unpaid on the Securities (together with interest thereon accrued in a manner to be specified in Section 301 compounded in a manner to be specified in
Section 301 from the relevant Interest Payment Date, to the extent permitted by applicable law), provided, however, that no Extension Period may extend beyond the Stated Maturity of such
Securities. 


        During
an Extension Period, interest will continue to accrue and Holders of the Securities will be required to accrue interest income for U.S. Federal income tax purposes. During any
such Extension Period, the Company shall not (i) declare or pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Company's
capital stock (which includes the Common Stock and the Preferred Stock), or (ii) make any payment of principal, interest, or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt
securities of the Company (including other Securities) that rank pari passu with or junior in interest to the Securities of such series or (iii) make any guarantee payments with respect to any
guarantee by the Company of the debt securities of any Subsidiary of the Company if such guarantee ranks pari passu with or junior in interest to the Securities of such series (other than
(a) dividends or distributions in Common Stock, (b) any declaration of a dividend in connection with the implementation of a stockholders' rights plan, or the issuance of stock under any
such plan in the future, or the redemption or repurchase of any such rights pursuant thereto, (c) payments under the applicable OB Holdings Trust Guarantee, (d) purchases or acquisitions
of shares of the Common Stock in connection with the satisfaction by the Company of its

UNCLAIMED MONEYS  


        Section 401. Applicability of Article. 


        If,
pursuant to Section 301, provision is made for the defeasance of Securities of a series and if the Securities of such series are denominated and payable only in U.S. dollars
(except as provided pursuant to Section 301), then the provisions of this Article Four relating to defeasance of Securities shall be applicable except as otherwise specified pursuant to
Section 301 for Securities of such series. Defeasance provisions, if any, for Securities denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars may be specified pursuant to Section 301. 


        Section 402.
Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture; Defeasance. 



        (a)   If
at any time (i) the Company or the Guarantor shall have delivered to the Trustee for cancellation all Securities of any series theretofore authenticated and
delivered (other than (1) any Securities of such series which shall have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which shall have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 and
(2) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company or the Guarantor as provided in Section 405) or (ii) all
Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation shall have become due and payable, or are by their terms to become due and payable within one year or are to be
called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption, and the Company shall deposit with the Trustee as trust funds the entire
amount in the currency in which such Securities are denominated (except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 301) sufficient (in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent
public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee) without consideration of any reinvestment and after payment of all taxes or other charges and assessments in
respect thereof payable by the Trustee, to pay at 



24







 

maturity
or upon redemption all Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, including principal and premium, if any, and interest due or to become due on such
date of maturity or redemption date, as the case may be, no default with respect to the Securities has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit, such deposit does not result in a breach
or violation of, or constitute a default under, the Indenture or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company of the Guarantor is a party and the Company delivers an Officers' Certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such conditions have been complied with and if in either case the Company or the Guarantor shall also pay or cause to be paid all other sums payable
hereunder by the Company or the Guarantor, then this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of such Securities herein
expressly provided for and rights to receive payments of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, such Securities) with respect to the Securities of such series, and the Trustee, on demand
of the Company or the Guarantor, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction of and discharging this Indenture. 



        (b)   Subject
to Sections 402(c), 403 and 407, the Company at any time may terminate, with respect to Securities of a particular series, (i) all of the Company's
and the Guarantor's obligations under the Securities of such series and this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series ("legal defeasance option") or (ii) the Company's and the
Guarantor's obligations under any covenants specified pursuant to Section 301 applicable to the Securities of such Series ("covenant defeasance option"). The Company may exercise its legal
defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option. 




        If
the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Securities of the defeased series may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. If the Company exercises its
covenant defeasance option, payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default related to the specified covenants. 


        Upon
satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Company or the Guarantor, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that
the Company terminates. 



        (c)   Notwithstanding
clause (a) above and the exercise of the legal defeasance option in clause (b) above, the Company's and the Guarantor's obligations in
Sections 305, 306, 405, 406, 407, 607, 608, 701 and 1002 shall survive until the Securities of the defeased series have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Company's and the Guarantor's
obligations in Sections 607, 405 and 406 shall survive. 




        Section 403.
Conditions of Defeasance. 


        The
Company may exercise the legal defeasance option or the covenant defeasance option with respect to Securities of a particular series only if: 



        (1)   the
Company or the Guarantor irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal of, and premium, if any,
and interest on, the Securities of such series to maturity or redemption, as the case may be; 


        (2)   the
Company or the Guarantor delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressing their opinion that the
payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in
such amounts as will be sufficient to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest when due on all the Securities of such series to maturity or redemption, as the case may be; 



25







 

        (3)   91 days
pass after the deposit is made and during the 91-day period no Default specified in Section 501(5) or (6) with respect to the
Company occurs which is continuing at the end of the period; 


        (4)   no
Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit and after giving effect thereto; 


        (5)   the
deposit does not constitute a default under any other agreement binding on the Company or the Guarantor; 


        (6)   in
the event of the legal defeasance option, the Company or the Guarantor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) the Company
has received from the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (ii) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect
that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such
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 defeasance had not occurred; 


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



        (8)   the
Company or the Guarantor delivers to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and
discharge of the Securities of such series as contemplated by this Article Four have been complied with. 




        Before
or after a deposit, the Company or the Guarantor may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Securities of such series at a future date in accordance
with Article Eleven. 


        Section 404.
Application of Trust Money. 



        The
Trustee shall hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to this Article Four. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S.
Government Obligations through any paying agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, the Securities of the defeased series. 


        Section 405.
Repayment to Company or Guarantor. 


        The
Trustee and any paying agent shall promptly turn over to the Company or the Guarantor upon request any excess money or securities held by them at any time. 



        Subject
to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and any paying agent shall pay to the Company or the Guarantor upon request any money held by them for the payment of
principal, premium or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to such money must look to the Company or the Guarantor for payment as general creditors and all
liability of the Trustee or such paying agent with respect to such money shall thereupon cease. 


        Section 406.
Indemnity for U.S. Government Obligations. 


        The
Company and the Guarantor (without duplication) shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee and the Holders against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against
deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations. 


26







 

        Section 407.
Reinstatement. 


        If
the Trustee or any paying agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article Four by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any
order or judgment of any court or government authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company's and the Guarantor's obligations under this Indenture and the
Securities of the defeased series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article Four until such time as the Trustee or any paying agent is permitted to
apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article Four.

        If
an Event of Default described in paragraph (1), (2), (3), (4) or (7) (if the Event of Default under paragraph (4) or (7) is with respect to less
than all series of Securities then Outstanding) of Section 501 occurs and is continuing with respect to any series, then and in each and every such case, unless the principal of all the
Securities of such series shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series then
Outstanding hereunder (each such series acting as a separate class), by notice in writing to the Company and the Guarantor (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), may declare the principal amount
(or, if the Securities of such series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of all the Securities of such series
then Outstanding and all accrued interest thereon to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable, anything in this
Indenture or in the Securities of such series contained to the contrary notwithstanding. If an Event of Default described in paragraph (4) or (7) (if the Event of Default under
paragraph (4) or (7) is with respect to all series of Securities then Outstanding) of Section 501 occurs and is continuing, then and in each and every such case, unless the
principal of all the Securities shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of all the Securities then Outstanding
hereunder (treated as one class), by notice in writing to the Company and the Guarantor (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), may declare the principal amount (or, if any Securities are Original
Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms thereof) of all the Securities then Outstanding and all accrued interest thereon to be due and payable
immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture or in the Securities contained to the contrary notwithstanding. 



        At
any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made with respect to the Securities of any series and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been
obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series (subject to, in the case of any series of
Securities held as trust assets of a OB Holdings Trust and with respect to which a Security Exchange has not theretofore occurred, such consent of the holders of the Preferred Securities and
the Common Securities of such OB Holdings Trust as may be required under the Declaration of Trust of such OB Holdings Trust), by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and
annul such declaration and its consequences if 



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



        (A)  all
overdue installments of interest on the Securities of such series, 


        (B)  the
principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of such series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, and interest thereon
at the rate or rates prescribed therefor by the terms of the Securities of such series, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, 



        (C)  interest
upon overdue installments of interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor by the terms of the Securities of such series to the extent that payment of such
interest is lawful, and 




29







 


        (D)  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 all
other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607; and 




        (2)   all
Events of Default with respect to such series of Securities, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Securities of such series which have become due solely
by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 




        If
an Event of Default described in paragraph (5) or (6) of Section 501 occurs, then and in each and every such case, the principal amount (or, if any Securities are
Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms thereof) of all the Securities then Outstanding and all accrued interest thereon, if any,
shall automatically become immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture or in the Securities contained to the contrary notwithstanding. 


        Section 503.
Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 


        The
Company and the Guarantor each covenants that if 



        (1)   default
is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security of any series when such interest becomes due and payable, or 



        (2)   default
is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof, or 


        (3)   default
is made in the payment of any sinking or purchase fund or analogous obligation when the same becomes due by the terms of the Securities of any series, and any
such default continues for any period of grace provided with respect to the Securities of such series, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it,
for the benefit of the Holder of any such Security (or the Holders of any such series in the case of Clause (3) above), the whole amount then due and payable on any such Security (or on the
Securities of any such series in the case of Clause (3) above) for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, with interest, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally
enforceable, upon the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and upon overdue installments of interest, at such rate or rates as may be prescribed therefor by the terms of any such Security (or of
Securities of any such series in the case of Clause (3) above); 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 and all other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607. 




        If
the Company or the Guarantor 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, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or the Guarantor or any other obligor upon
the Securities of such series and collect the money adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or the Guarantor or any other obligor upon such
Securities, wherever situated. 


        If
an Event of Default with respect to any series of Securities 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.

Company, the Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company, the Guarantor 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 or the
Guarantor for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, 



          (i)  to
file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other
papers or documents as may be necessary and 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 all other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607) and of the Securityholders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 


         (ii)  to
collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any receiver, assignee, trustee,
liquidator, sequestrator (or other similar official) in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Securityholder to make such payment to the Trustee and in the event that the Trustee
shall consent to the making of such payments
directly to the Securityholders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other
amounts due the Trustee under Section 607. 




        Nothing
herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Securityholder any plan or 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 Securityholder in any such proceeding. 


        Section 505.

rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities of any series may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities of such
series 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 agent and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders
of the Securities of the series in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 


        Section 506.
Application of Money Collected. 


        Any
money collected by the Trustee with respect to a series of Securities pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and,

        Section 507.
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

Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series; 


        (2)   the
Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such 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; 



        (3)   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; 


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


        (5)   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 such series (subject to, in the case of any series of Securities held as trust assets of a OB Holdings Trust and with respect to which a Security
Exchange has not theretofore occurred, such consent of the holders of the Preferred Securities and the Common Securities of such OB Holdings Trust as may be required under the Declaration of
Trust of such OB Holdings Trust); it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Securities of such series 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 Holders of Securities of such series, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over
any other such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and proportionate benefit of all the Holders of all Securities of such
series. 




        The
Company expressly acknowledges that if, prior to a Security Exchange with respect to the Securities of any series, a Default with respect to the Securities of such series shall have
occurred, under the circumstances set forth in the applicable Declaration of Trust, any holder of Preferred
Securities of the applicable OB Holdings Trust may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, enforce directly against the Company the applicable Property Trustee's rights hereunder. In
furtherance of the foregoing and for the avoidance of any doubt, the Company acknowledges that, under the circumstances described in the applicable Declaration of Trust, any such holder of Preferred
Securities, in its own name, in the name of the applicable OB Holdings Trust or in the name of the holders of the Preferred Securities issued by such OB Holdings Trust, may institute or
cause to be instituted a proceeding, including, without limitation, any suit in equity, an action at law or other judicial or administrative proceeding, to enforce the applicable Property Trustee's
rights hereunder directly against the Company as issuer of the applicable series of Securities, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and enforce the same against the Company. 


        Section 508.
Unconditional Right of Securityholders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. 


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


32







 

        Section 509.
Restoration of Rights And Remedies. 



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


        Section 510.

        No
right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Securityholders 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 511.
Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 


        No
delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security 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 or by law to the Trustee or to the Securityholders may be exercised from time
to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Securityholders, as the case may be. 


        Section 512.
Control By Securityholders. 


        The
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series (subject to, in the case of any series of Securities held as trust assets of a
OB Holdings Trust and with respect to which a Security Exchange has not theretofore occurred, such consent of the holders of the Preferred Securities and the Common Securities of such
OB Holdings Trust as may be required under the Declaration of Trust of such OB Holdings Trust) 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 



        (1)   the
Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that the action so directed may not
lawfully be taken or would conflict with this Indenture or if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer, determine that the proceedings so directed would involve it in personal
liability or be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not taking part in such direction, and 


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




        Section 513.  Waiver of Past Defaults. 


        The
Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series (subject to, in the case of any series of Securities held as trust assets of a
OB Holdings Trust and with respect to which a Security Exchange has not theretofore occurred, such consent of the holders of the Preferred Securities and the Common Securities of such
OB Holdings Trust as may be required under the Declaration of Trust of such OB Holdings Trust) may on behalf of the Holders of all the 


33







 



Securities
of such series waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default not theretofore cured 



        (1)   in
the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security of such series, or in the payment of any sinking or purchase fund or analogous
obligation with respect to the Securities of such series, or 



        (2)   in
respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of
such series. 




        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 514.
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 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 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit
instituted by any Securityholder, or group of Securityholders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series to which the suit relates, or to
any suit instituted by any Securityholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed
in such Security (or, in the case of redemption or repayment, on or after the Redemption Date or Repayment Date). 


        Section 515.
Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. 


        The
Company and the Guarantor each covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the
benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company and the
Guarantor each (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not 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 had been enacted.

THE TRUSTEE  


        Section 601. Certain Duties And Responsibilities. 



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



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


        (2)   in
the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may, with respect to Securities of such series, conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or
opinions which by any 



34







 




provision
hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this
Indenture. 




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


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



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


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


        (3)   the
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any 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; and 


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




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


        Section 602.
Notice of Defaults. 


        Within
90 days after the occurrence of any default hereunder with respect to Securities of any series, or, if later, after the Trustee obtains knowledge of such default, the
Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Securityholders of such series, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, notice of such default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such
default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security of such series or
in the payment of any sinking or purchase fund installment or analogous obligation with respect to Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long
as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the
interests of the Securityholders of such series; and provided, further, that in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 501(4) with respect to Securities of such series no
such notice to Securityholders of such series shall be given until at least 90 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term "default", with respect to Securities
of any series, means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series.

        (d)   the

        (e)   the
Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Securityholders

compliance with such request or direction; 


        (f)    the
Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,

fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company and the Guarantor, personally or
by agent or attorney; and 


        (g)   the
Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall

        Section 604.
Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. 



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


        Section 605.

        The
Trustee, any Paying Agent, the Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company or the Guarantor, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of

Registrar or such other agent. 


36







 

        Section 606.
Money Held in Trust. 


        Money
held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any

        The
Company and the Guarantor each (without duplication) agrees 



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


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



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




        As

        Section 608.  Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. 


        The
Trustee for the Securities of any series issued hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act during the period of time provided
for therein. In determining whether the Trustee has a conflicting interest as defined in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to the Securities of any series, there shall be
excluded for purposes of the conflicting interest provisions of such Section 310(b) the Securities of every other series issued under this Indenture and every series of securities issued under
any other indentures if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act are met. Nothing herein shall prevent the Trustee from filing with the
Commission the application referred to in the second to last paragraph of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. 


        Section 609.
Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. 


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


37








 

        Section 610.  Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 


        (a)   No
resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by
the successor Trustee under Section 611. 


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


        (c)   The
Trustee may be removed with respect to any series of Securities at any time by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
that series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company and the Guarantor. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days
after the giving of such notice of removal, the removed Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 


        (d)   If
at any time: 



        (1)   the
Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act pursuant to Section 608(a) with respect to any series of Securities after
written request therefor by the Company, by
the Guarantor or by any Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of that series for at least 6 months, or 



        (2)   the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 609 with respect to any series of Securities and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the
Company, the Guarantor or by any such Securityholder, or 


        (3)   the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting with respect to any series of Securities, or 


        (4)   the
Trustee shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or
control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution, or the
Guarantor by a Guarantor's Board Resolution, may remove the Trustee, with respect to the series, or in the case of Clause (4), with respect to all series, or (ii) subject to
Section 514, any Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least 6 months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition
any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the series, or, in the case of Clause (4), with respect to
all series. 




        (e)   If
the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting with respect to any series of Securities, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Trustee
with respect to any series of Securities for any cause, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee for that series of Securities. If, within one year after such
resignation, removal or incapacity, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to such series of Securities shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company, the Guarantor and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such
appointment, become the successor Trustee with respect to such series and supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company with respect to such series. If no successor Trustee with respect to
such series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Securityholders of such series and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Securityholder who has been a bona fide
Holder of a Security of that series for at least 


38







 

6 months
may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to such series. 


        (f)    The
Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to
any series by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of Securities of that series as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Each
notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its principal Corporate Trust Office. 


        Section 611.
Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 


        Every
successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company, the Guarantor and to the predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment,
and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become effective with respect to any series as to which it is resigning or being removed as Trustee, and such successor
Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the predecessor Trustee with respect to any such series; but, on request of
the Company, the Guarantor or the successor Trustee, such predecessor Trustee shall, upon payment of its reasonable charges, if any, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor
Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the predecessor Trustee, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such predecessor Trustee
hereunder with respect to all or any such series, subject nevertheless to its lien, if any, provided for in Section 607. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company and the
Guarantor shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts. 



        In
case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the Guarantor, the predecessor Trustee and
each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any applicable series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto which shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed
necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the predecessor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series as to which the predecessor Trustee is not
being succeeded shall continue to be vested in the predecessor Trustee, and shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the
administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the
same trust and that each such Trustee shall be Trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee. 


39









 










  
        No successor Trustee with respect to any series of Securities shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible
with respect to that series under this Article. 


        Section 612.
Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 



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


        Section 613.
Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 



        (a)   Subject
to Subsection (b) of this Section, if the Trustee shall be or shall become a creditor, directly or indirectly, secured or unsecured, of the Company within
3 months prior to a default, as defined in Subsection (c) of this Section, or subsequent to such a default, then, unless and until such default shall be cured, the Trustee shall set
apart and hold in a special account for the benefit of the Trustee individually, the Holders of the Securities and the holders of other indenture securities (as defined in Subsection (c) of
this Section): 



        (1)   an
amount equal to any and all reductions in the amount due and owing upon any claim as such creditor in respect of principal or interest, effected after the beginning
of such 3-month period and valid as against the Company and its other creditors, except any such reduction resulting from the receipt or disposition of any property described in
paragraph (2) of this Subsection, or from the exercise of any right of set-off which the Trustee could have exercised if a petition in bankruptcy had been filed by or against the
Company upon the date of such default; and 


        (2)   all
property received by the Trustee in respect of any claim as such creditor, either as security therefor, or in satisfaction or composition thereof, or otherwise,
after the beginning of such 3-month period, or an amount equal to the proceeds of any such property, if disposed of, subject, however, to the rights, if any, of the Company and its other
creditors in such property or such proceeds. 



Nothing
herein contained, however, shall affect the right of the Trustee 


        (A)  to
retain for its own account (i) payments made on account of any such claim by any Person (other than the Company) who is liable thereon, and (ii) the
proceeds of the bona fide sale of any such claim by the Trustee to a third person, and (iii) distributions made in cash, securities or other property in respect of claims filed against the
Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law; 


        (B)  to
realize, for its own account, upon any property held by it as security for any such claim, if such property was so held prior to the beginning of such
3-month period; 


        (C)  to
realize, for its own account, but only to the extent of the claim hereinafter mentioned, upon any property held by it as Security for any such claim, if such claim
was created after the beginning of such 3-month period and such property was received as security therefor simultaneously with the creation thereof, and if the Trustee shall sustain 





40







 






the
burden of proving that at the time such property was so received the Trustee had no reasonable cause to believe that a default as defined in Subsection (c) of this Section would occur
within 3 months; or 


        (D)  to
receive payment on any claim referred to in paragraph (B) or (C), against the release of any property held as security for such claim as provided in
paragraph (B) or (C), as the case may be, to the extent of the fair value of such property. 






        For
the purposes of paragraphs (B), (C) and (D), property substituted after the beginning of such 3-month period for property held as security at the time of
such substitution shall, to the extent of the fair value of the property released, have the same status as the property released, and, to the extent that any claim referred to in any of such
paragraphs is created in renewal of or in substitution for or for the purpose of repaying or refunding any pre-existing claim of the Trustee as such creditor, such claim shall have the
same status as such pre-existing claim. 


        If
the Trustee shall be required to account, the funds and property held in such special account and the proceeds thereof shall be apportioned between the Trustee, the Securityholders
and the holders of other indenture securities in such manner that the Trustee, the Securityholders and the holders of other indenture securities realize, as a result of payments from such special
account and payments of dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law,
the same percentage of their respective claims, figured before crediting to the claim of the Trustee anything on account of the receipt by it from the Company of the funds and property in such special
account and before crediting to the respective claims of the Trustee and the Securityholders and the holders of other indenture securities dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy
or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law, but after crediting thereon receipts on account of the indebtedness represented by
their respective claims from all sources other than from such dividends and from the funds and property so held in such special account. As used in this paragraph, with respect to any claim, the term
"dividends" shall include any distribution with respect to such claim, in bankruptcy or receivership or proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law,
whether such distribution is made in cash, securities, or other property, but shall not include any such distribution with respect to the secured portion, if any, of such claim. The court in which
such bankruptcy, receivership or proceedings for reorganization is pending shall have jurisdiction (i) to apportion between the Trustee and the Securityholders and the holders of other
indenture Securities in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph, the funds and property held in such special account and proceeds thereof, or (ii) in lieu of such apportionment, in
whole or in part, to give to the provisions of this paragraph due consideration in determining the fairness of the distributions to be made to the Trustee and the Securityholders and the holders of
other indenture Securities with respect to their respective claims, in which event it shall not be necessary to liquidate or to appraise the value of any Securities or other property held in such
special account or as Security for any such claim, or to make a specific allocation of such distributions as between the secured and unsecured portions of such claims, or otherwise to apply the
provisions of this paragraph as a mathematical formula. 


        Any
Trustee which has resigned or been removed after the beginning of such 3-month period shall be subject to the provisions of this Subsection as though such resignation or
removal had not occurred. If any Trustee has resigned or been removed prior to the beginning of such 3-month period, it shall be subject to the provisions of this Subsection if and only if
the following conditions exist: 





          (i)  the
receipt of property or reduction of claim, which would have given rise to the obligation to account, if such Trustee had continued as Trustee, occurred after the
beginning of such 3-month period; and 





41







 



         (ii)  such
receipt of property or reduction of claim occurred within 3 months after such resignation or removal. 





        (b)   There
shall be excluded from the operation of Subsection (a) of this Section a creditor relationship arising from 



        (1)   the
ownership or acquisition of securities issued under any indenture, or any security or securities having a maturity of one year or more at the time of acquisition by
the Trustee; 


        (2)   advances
authorized by a receivership or bankruptcy court of competent jurisdiction, or by this Indenture, for the purpose of preserving any property which shall at any
time be subject to the lien of this Indenture or of discharging tax liens or other prior liens or encumbrances thereon, if notice of such advances and of the circumstances surrounding the making

        Section 614.  Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 


        At

of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or
pursuant to Section 306, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the
Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be
deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each
Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the
District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as an Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and, if other than the Company itself, subject to
supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or
examining authority, then for
the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition
so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and
with the effect specified in this Section. 


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


        An
Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and, if other than the Company, to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the
agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and, if other than the Company, to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such
a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee, with the approval of the Company, may appoint
a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall mail written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities of the
series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment
hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent
shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 


        The
Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent (other than an Authenticating Agent appointed at the request of the Company from time to time) reasonable compensation for its

not more than 30 days after each Regular Record Date, in each year in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, a list of the
names and addresses of the Holders of Securities of such series as of such date, and 


        (b)   at
such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of similar form and content

        (a)   The
Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Holders of Securities contained in the most recent list
furnished to the Trustee as provided
in Section 701 and the names and addresses of Holders of Securities received by the Trustee in its capacity as Security Registrar. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided
in Section 701 upon receipt of a new list so furnished. 


        (b)   If
3 or more Holders of Securities of any series (hereinafter referred to as "applicants") apply in writing to the Trustee, and furnish to the Trustee reasonable proof
that each such applicant has owned a Security of such series for a period of at least 6 months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire to
communicate with other Holders of Securities of such series or with the Holders of all Securities with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under such Securities and is accompanied by a
copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall, within 5 Business Days after the receipt of such application, at its election,
either 



44







 


          (i)  afford
such applicants access to the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 702(a), or

communication, if any, specified in such application. 





        If
the Trustee shall elect not to afford such applicants access to such information, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of such applicants, mail to each Holder of a Security of

material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best interests of the Holders of Securities of such series or all
Securityholders, as the case may be, or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If the Commission, after opportunity for a hearing upon
the objections specified in the written statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or more of such
objections, the Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail copies
of such material to all Securityholders of such series or all Securityholders, as the case may be, with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise
the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting their application. 



        (c)   Every
Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be held accountable
by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of Securities in accordance with Section 702(b), regardless of the source from which such

presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the principal Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee its agent to receive all such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 


        The
Guarantor will maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment where Securities to which the Guarantee applies may be presented or surrendered for payment pursuant to the
Guarantee and where notices and demands to or upon the Guarantor in respect of the Guarantee and this Indenture may be served. The Guarantor will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the
location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Guarantor shall fail to maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address
thereof, such presentations, surrenders and demands may be made or served at the Principal Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Guarantor hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive
all such presentations, surrenders and demands. 


        Section 1003.
Money for Security Payments to be Held in Trust. 



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


        Whenever
the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, it will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on,
any Securities of such series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the
Persons entitled to such principal (and premium, if any) or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so
to act. 


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



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



51







 

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


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




        The
Company or the Guarantor may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to any series of Securities or for any other
purpose, pay, or by Company Order or Guarantor Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company, the Guarantor or such Paying Agent in respect of each and
every series of Securities as to which it seeks to discharge this Indenture or, if for any other purpose, all sums so held in trust by the Company or the Guarantor in respect of all Securities, such
sums to be held by the
Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company, the Guarantor or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent
shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 


        Any
money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company or the Guarantor, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on
any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request (or
if deposited by the Guarantor, paid to the Guarantor upon Guarantor Request), or (if then held by the Company or the Guarantor) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security
shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company and the Guarantor for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust
money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease. The Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company
and the Guarantor mail to the Holders of the Securities as to which the money to be repaid was held in trust, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, a notice that such moneys
remain unclaimed and that, after a date specified in the notice, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date on which the notice was first mailed to the Holders of the Securities as to
which the money to be repaid was held in trust, any unclaimed balance of such moneys then remaining will be paid to the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, free of the trust formerly
impressed upon it. 


52









 










  
        The Company initially authorizes the Trustee to act as Paying Agent for the Securities on its behalf. The Company may at any time and from time to time authorize one or more Persons to
act as Paying Agent in addition to or in place of the Trustee with respect to any series of Securities issued under this Indenture. 


        Section 1004.  Statement as to Compliance. 


        The
Company and the Guarantor each will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a written statement signed by the principal executive officer,
principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, stating that 



        (1)   a
review of the activities of the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, during such year and of its performance under this Indenture and under the terms of the
Securities has been made under his supervision; and 


        (2)   to
the best of his knowledge, based on such review, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, has complied with all conditions and covenants under this Indenture
through such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to him and the nature and status thereof. 




        For
purposes of this Section 1004, compliance shall be determined without regard to any grace period (other than an Extension Period) or requirement of notice provided pursuant to
the terms of this Indenture. 


        Section 1005.
Corporate Existence. 


        Subject
to Article Eight each of the Company and the Guarantor will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence. 


        Section 1006.
Additional Covenants. 



        The
Company and the Guarantor each covenants and agrees with each Holder of Securities of a series issued to a OB Holdings Trust that it will not declare or pay any dividends or
distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of its capital stock (other than (a) dividends, distributions, redemptions, purchases,
acquisitions or payments made with its capital stock, (b) any declaration or payment of a dividend in connection with the implementation of a stockholders' rights plan, or the issuance of stock
under any such plan in the future, or the redemption or repurchase of any such rights pursuant thereto, (c) payments of accrued dividends on preferred stock upon the redemption, exchange or
conversion of any preferred stock as may be outstanding from time to time, (d) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of preferred stock upon the redemption, exchange or conversion of
such preferred stock, (e) purchases or acquisitions of shares of common stock in connection with the satisfaction of obligations under any employee benefit plan or other contractual obligation
or (f) as a result of a reclassification of capital stock or the exchange or conversion of one class or series capital stock for another class or series of capital stock), if at such time
(i) there shall have occurred an Event of Default, (ii) the Guarantor shall be in default with respect to its payment of any obligations under the related OB Holdings Trust
Guarantee or (iii) the Company shall have given notice of its election to begin an Extension Period as provided herein and shall not have rescinded such notice, or such Extension Period, or any
extension thereof, shall be continuing. 


        The
Company also covenants with each Holder of Securities of a series issued to a OB Holdings Trust (i) to maintain directly, or indirectly through a wholly owned
Subsidiary, 100% ownership of the Common Securities of such OB Holdings Trust; provided, however, that any permitted successor of the Company hereunder may succeed to the Company's ownership of
such Common Securities, (ii) not to voluntarily terminate, windup or liquidate such OB Holdings Trust, except (a) in connection with a distribution of the Securities of such
series to the holders of Preferred Securities in liquidation of such 


53







 



OB Holdings
Trust or (b) in connection with certain mergers, consolidations or amalgamations permitted by the related Declaration of Trust and (iii) to use its reasonable best
efforts, consistent with the terms and provisions of such Declaration of Trust, to cause such OB Holdings Trust to remain classified as a grantor trust and not as an association taxable as a
corporation for United States Federal income tax purposes. 


ARTICLE ELEVEN

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES  


        Section 1101. Applicability of Article. 


        The
Company may reserve the right to redeem and pay before Stated Maturity all or any part of the Securities of any series, either by optional redemption, sinking or purchase fund or
analogous obligation or otherwise, by provision therefor in the form of Security for such series established and approved pursuant to Section 202 and on such terms as are specified in such form
or in the Board Resolution or indenture supplemental hereto with respect to Securities of such series as provided in Section 301. Redemption of Securities of any series shall be made in
accordance with the terms of such Securities and, to the extent that this Article does not conflict with such terms, the succeeding Sections of this Article. 


        Section 1102.
Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. 


        The
election of the Company to redeem any Securities redeemable at the election of the Company shall be evidenced by, or made pursuant to authority granted by, a Board Resolution. In
case of any redemption at the election of the Company of any Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter
notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed. 


        In
the case of any redemption of Securities (i) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this
Indenture, or (ii) pursuant to an election of the Company which is subject to a condition specified in the terms of such Securities, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers'
Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction or condition. 


        Section 1103.  Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed. 


        If
less than all the Securities of like tenor and terms of any series are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to
the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may
include provision for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal of Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that
series. Unless otherwise provided in the terms of a particular series of Securities, the portions of the principal of Securities so selected for partial redemption shall be equal to the minimum
authorized denomination of the Securities of such series, or an integral multiple thereof, and the principal amount which remains outstanding shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination
for Securities of such series. If less than all the Securities of unlike tenor and terms of a series are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected by the Company. 


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


54







 

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


        Section 1104.  Notice of Redemption. 


        Notice
of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each holder of
Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security Register. 


        All
notices of redemption shall state: 



        (1)   the
Redemption Date; 


        (2)   the
Redemption Price; 


        (3)   if
less than all Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification, including CUSIP numbers (and, in the case of partial redemption, the
respective principal amounts) of the Securities to be redeemed, from the Holder to whom the notice is given; 


        (4)   that
on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security, and that interest, if any, thereon shall cease to accrue from and
after said date; 


        (5)   the
place where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, which shall be the office or agency of the Company in the Place of
Payment; and 


        (6)   that
the redemption is on account of a sinking or purchase fund, or other analogous obligation, if that be the case. 




        Notice
of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense
of the Company. Such notice shall be deemed to have been given to each Holder if sent in accordance with Section 105 hereof. 


        Section 1105.  Deposit of Redemption Price. 


        On
or prior to 10:00 a.m. on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent,
segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date. 


        Section 1106.
Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 



        Notice
of Redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified and
from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of such Securities for redemption in
accordance with the notice, such Securities shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price. Installments of interest the Stated Maturity of which is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be
payable to the Holders of such Securities registered as such on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307. 



        If
any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate
borne by the Security, or as otherwise provided in such Security. 


55







 

        Section 1107.
Securities Redeemed in Part. 



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


        Section 1108.  Provisions with Respect to any Sinking Funds. 


        Unless
the form or terms of any series of Securities shall provide otherwise, in lieu of making all or any part of any mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to such series of
Securities in cash, the Company may at its option (1) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities of such series theretofore acquired by the Company, or (2) receive credit for
any Securities of such series (not previously so credited) acquired by the Company and theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or redeemed by the Company other than through the mandatory
sinking fund, and if it does so then (i) Securities so delivered or credited shall be credited at the applicable sinking fund Redemption Price with respect to Securities of such series, and
(ii) on or before the 60th day next preceding each sinking fund Redemption Date with respect to such series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee (A) an Officers'
Certificate specifying the portions of such sinking fund payment to be satisfied by payment of cash and by delivery or credit of Securities of such series acquired by the Company or so redeemed, and
(B) such Securities so acquired, to the extent not previously surrendered. Such Officers' Certificate shall also state the basis for such credit and that the Securities for which the Company
elects to receive credit have not been previously so credited and were not redeemed by the Company through operation of the mandatory sinking fund, if any, provided with respect to such Securities and
shall also state that no Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series has occurred and is continuing. All Securities so delivered to the Trustee shall be canceled by the Trustee and no
Securities shall be authenticated in lieu thereof. 


        If
the sinking fund payment or payments (mandatory or optional) with respect to any series of Securities made in cash plus any unused balance of any preceding sinking fund payments with
respect to Securities of such series made in cash shall exceed $50,000 (or a lesser sum if the Company shall so request), unless otherwise provided by the terms of such series of Securities, that cash
shall be applied by the Trustee on the sinking fund Redemption Date with respect to Securities of such series next following the date of such payment to the redemption of Securities of such series at
the applicable sinking fund Redemption Price with respect to Securities of such series, together with accrued interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption, with the effect provided in
Section 1106. The Trustee shall select, in the manner provided in Section 1103, for redemption on such sinking fund Redemption Date a sufficient principal amount of Securities of such
series to utilize that cash and shall thereupon cause notice of redemption of the Securities of such series for the sinking fund to be given in the manner provided in Section 1104 (and with the
effect provided in Section 1106) for the redemption of Securities in part at the option of the Company. Any sinking fund moneys not so applied or allocated by the Trustee to the redemption of
Securities of such series shall be added to the next cash sinking fund payment with respect to Securities of such series received by the Trustee and, together with such payment, shall be applied in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 1108. Any and all sinking fund moneys with respect to Securities of any series held by the Trustee at the Maturity of Securities of such series,
and not held for the payment or redemption of particular Securities of such series, shall be applied by the Trustee, together with other moneys, if necessary, to be deposited sufficient for the
purpose, to the payment of the principal of the Securities of such series at Maturity. 


56







 

        On
or before each sinking fund Redemption Date provided with respect to Securities of any series, the Company shall pay to the Trustee in cash a sum equal to all accrued interest, if
any, to the date fixed for redemption on Securities to be redeemed on such sinking fund Redemption Date pursuant to this Section 1108. 


ARTICLE TWELVE

SUBORDINATION  


        Section 1201. Agreement of Securityholders that Securities Subordinated to Extent Provided. 



        The
Company, for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees and each Holder of the Securities by his or her acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees that the
payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on each and all of the Securities is hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to the prior
payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness. The provisions of this Article shall constitute a continuing offer to all persons who, in reliance upon such provisions, become holders of, or continue to
hold, Senior Indebtedness, and such provisions are made for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and such holders are hereby made obligees hereunder the same as if their names were
written herein as such, and the and/or each of them may proceed to enforce such provisions. 


        Section 1202.  Company Not to Make Payments with Respect to Securities in Certain Circumstances. 


        (a)   Upon
the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, all principal thereof and premium, if any, and interest thereon shall first be
paid in full, or such payment duly provided for in cash or in a manner satisfactory to the holder or holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment is made on account of the principal of or
premium, if any, or interest on the Securities or to acquire any of the Securities or on account of any sinking fund (except sinking fund payments made in Securities acquired by the Company before the
maturity of such Senior Indebtedness). 


        (b)   Upon
the happening of (i) an event of default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness, as such event of default is defined therein or in the instrument under
which it is outstanding, permitting the holders to accelerate the maturity thereof, or (ii) an event which, with the giving of notice, or lapse of time, or both, would constitute such an event
of default, then, unless and until such event shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal of or premium, if
any, or interest on the Securities or to acquire any of the Securities or on account of any sinking fund for the Securities (except sinking fund payments made in Securities acquired by the Company
before such default and notice thereof). 


        (c)   In
the event that notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 1202 the Company shall make any payment to the Trustee on account of the principal of or premium,
if any, or interest on the Securities, or on account of any sinking fund, or the Holders of the Securities shall receive any such payment, after the happening of a default in payment of the principal
of or premium, if any, or interest on Senior Indebtedness, then, unless and until such default or event of default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, such payment (subject
to the provisions of Section 1206) shall be held by the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, as the case may be, in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered
to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness (pro rata as to each of such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness held by them) or their representatives or the trustee under
the indenture or other agreement (if any) pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, for application to the
payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in accordance with the terms of such Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any
concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of 


57







 



Senior
Indebtedness. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any default under any Senior Indebtedness or under any agreement pursuant to which Senior Indebtedness may have been
issued. 


        Section 1203.
Securities Subordinated to Prior Payments of All Senior Indebtedness on Dissolution, Liquidation or Reorganization of the
Company. 


        Upon
any distribution of assets of the Company upon any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company (whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership
proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise): 


        (a)   the
holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall first be entitled to receive payment in full of the principal thereof, premium, if any, and interest due thereon before the
Holders of the Securities are entitled to receive any payment on account of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities; 



        (b)   any
payment 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
Trustees would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article Twelve, shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in
bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or other trustee or agent, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under
any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid,
after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution or provision therefor to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness; 


        (c)   in
the event that notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1203, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character,
whether in cash, property or securities, shall be received by the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities on account of principal, or premium, if any, or interest on the Securities before all Senior
Indebtedness is paid in full, or effective provisions made for its payment, such payment or distribution (subject to the provisions of Sections 1206 and 1207) shall be received and held in
trust for and shall be paid over to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid or unprovided for or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any
indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, for application to the payment of such Senior Indebtedness until all such Senior Indebtedness
shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution or provision therefor to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. 


        Section 1204.
Securityholders to be Subrogated to Right of Holders of Senior Indebtedness. 


        Subject
to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or
distributions of assets of the Company applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the Securities shall be paid in full, and for the purpose of such subrogation no payments or
distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness by or on behalf of the Company or by or on behalf of the Holders of the Securities by virtue of this Article which otherwise would have been
made to the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of this Article Twelve are and are
intended solely for the purpose 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. 


        Section 1205.
Obligation of the Company Unconditional. 



        Nothing
contained in this Article Twelve or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall impair as between the Company and the Holders of the Securities, the
obligation 


58







 



of
the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of, 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 Twelve 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 distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article Twelve, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 601, 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 dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of
the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making any distribution 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, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts
pertinent thereto or to this Article Twelve. 


        Section 1206.
Trustee Entitled to Assume Payments Not Prohibited in Absence of Notice. 


        The
Trustee shall not at any time 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, unless and until
a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Company or from one or more holders of Senior Indebtedness or from any trustee therefor; and, prior to the
receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 601, shall be entitled to assume conclusively that no such facts exist. 


        Section 1207.
Application by Trustee of Monies Deposited With It. 


        Anything
in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, any deposit of monies by the Company with the Trustee or any paying agent (whether or not in trust) for the payment of the
principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any Securities shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 1201, 1202, 1203 and 1204 except that, if prior to the date on which by the terms
of this Indenture any such monies may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of either the principal of or interest or premium, if any, on any Security) a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall not have received with respect to such monies the notice provided for in Section 1206, 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 date. 


        Section 1208.
Subordination Rights Not Impaired by Acts or Omissions of Company or Holders of Senior Indebtedness. 



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


        Section 1209.
Securityholders Authorize Trustee to Effectuate Subordination of Securities.

ARTICLE THIRTEEN

GUARANTEE OF SECURITIES  


        Section 1301. Guarantee. 


        The
Guarantor hereby fully and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Security of each series issued by the Company, authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, the due and
punctual payment of the principal (including any amount due in respect of any Original Issue Discount Security) of and any premium and interest on such Security, and the due and punctual payment of
any sinking fund payments provided for pursuant to the terms of such Security, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, call
for redemption, early repayment or otherwise, in accordance with the terms of such Security and this Indenture. The Guarantor hereby agrees that in the event of an Event of Default its obligations
hereunder shall be as if it were a principal debtor and not merely a surety, and shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, any invalidity, irregularity or
unenforceability of any Security of any series or this Indenture, any failure to enforce the provisions of any Security of any series or this Indenture, any waiver, modification or indulgence granted
to the Company with respect thereto by the Holder of any Security of any series or the Trustee, or any other circumstances which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or
guarantor; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of the Guarantor, increase the principal amount of any Security
or the interest rate thereon or increase any premium payable upon redemption thereof. The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event
of merger or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, the benefit of discussion, protest or notice with respect to any Security or the indebtedness
evidenced thereby or with respect to any sinking fund payment required pursuant to the terms of such Security issued under this Indenture and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guarantee
will not be discharged with respect to such Security except by payment in full of the principal thereof and any premium and interest thereon or as provided in Article Four or Section 802. If
any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantor, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to the
Company or the Guarantor any amount paid by the Company or the 


60







 



Guarantor
to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. The Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantor,
on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, the Maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Five hereof for the purposes of this
Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby. 


        The
Guarantor also agrees, to pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or any Holders in enforcing any
rights under this Guarantee. 


        The
Guarantor hereby waives any right of set off which the Guarantor may have against the Holder of any Security in respect of any amounts which are or may become payable by such Holder
to the Company. 


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


        No
past, present or future stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator of the Guarantor shall have any personal liability under the Guarantees set forth in this
Section 1301 by reason of his, her or its status as such stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator. 



        The
Guarantee set forth in this Section 1301 shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose with respect to any Security until the certificate of authentication on such
Security shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee. 


        Section 1302.
Subordination of Guarantee. 


        The
obligation of the Guarantor under the Guarantee pursuant to this Article 13 shall be junior and subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor on the same basis as the
Securities are junior and subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of the Company. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the Trustee and the Holders shall have the right to receive and/or retain payments
by the Guarantor only at such times as them may receive and/or retain payments in respect of the Securities pursuant to this Indenture, including Article 12 hereof. The Guarantee made by the
Guarantor hereunder and evidenced by any notation of Guarantee endorsed on any Security is subject to the provisions of Article 12 hereof. 


        Section 1303.
Execution of Notations of Guarantee. 


        To
evidence its Guarantee to the Holders specified in Section 1301, the Guarantor hereby agrees to execute the notation of the Guarantee in substantially the form set forth in
Section 205 to be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. The Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 1301 shall remain in full
force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on any Security a notation of such Guarantee. Each such notation of Guarantee shall be signed on behalf of the Guarantor by any proper officer
of the Guarantor prior to the authentication of the Security on which it is endorsed, and the delivery of such Security by the Trustee, after the due authentication thereof by the Trustee hereunder,
shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee on behalf of the Guarantor. Such signatures upon the notation of the Guarantee may be manual or facsimile signatures of any present, past or future
proper officer of the Guarantor and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced below the notation of the Guarantee, and in case any such proper officer of the Guarantor who shall have signed the
notation of the Guarantee shall cease to be 


61







 



such
officer before the Security on which such notation is endorsed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by the Company, such Security nevertheless may be
authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the person who signed the notation of the Guarantee had not ceased to be such officer of the Guarantor. 



        IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed, all as of the day and year first above written.
