            SECTION 103 Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee.

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

exercise of reasonable care should know, that the opinion, certificate or

            SECTION 104 Acts of Holders.

            (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
      waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by
      Holders of the Outstanding Securities of all series or one or more series,
      as the case may be, may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more
      instruments of substantially similar tenor signed (which may be
      electronically signed) by such Holders in person or by agents duly
      appointed in writing (which may be in electronic form). If Securities of a
      series are issuable as Bearer Securities, any request, demand,
      authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided
      by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of Securities of such
      series may, alternatively, be embodied in and evidenced by the record of
      Holders of Securities of such series voting in favor thereof, either in
      person or by proxies duly appointed in writing, at any meeting of Holders
      of Securities of such series duly called and held in accordance with the
      provisions of Article Fifteen, or a combination of such instruments and
      any such record. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such
      action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or
      record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby
      expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments and any
      such record (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are
      herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Holders signing such
      instrument or instruments or so voting at any such meeting. Proof of
      execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such
      agent, or of the holding by any Person of a Security, shall be sufficient
      for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee
      and the Company and any agent of the Trustee or the Company, if made in
      the manner provided in this Section. The record of any meeting of Holders
      of Securities shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 1506.

            (b) The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or
      writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may be proved
      in any manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

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

            (d) The ownership of Bearer Securities may be proved by the
      production of such Bearer Securities or by a certificate executed, as
      depositary, by any trust company, bank, banker or other depositary,
      wherever situated, if such certificate shall be deemed by the Trustee to
      be satisfactory, showing that at the date therein mentioned such Person
      had on deposit with such depositary, or exhibited to it, the Bearer
      Securities therein described; or such facts may be proved by the
      certificate or affidavit of the Person holding such Bearer Securities, if
      such certificate or affidavit is deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory.
      The Trustee and the Company may assume that such ownership of any Bearer
      Security continues until (1) another certificate or affidavit bearing a
      later date issued in respect of the same Bearer Security is produced, or
      (2) such Bearer Security is

                                      -12-
<PAGE>   15
      produced to the Trustee by some other Person, or (3) such Bearer Security
      is surrendered in exchange for a Registered Security, or (4) such Bearer
      Security is no longer Outstanding. The ownership of Bearer Securities may
      also be proved in any other manner that the Trustee deems sufficient.

            (e) If the Company shall solicit from the Holders of Registered
      Securities any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
      waiver or other Act, the Company may, at its option, in or pursuant to a
      Board Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of
      Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction,
      notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no
      obligation to do so. Notwithstanding TIA Section 316(c), such record date
      shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board
      Resolution, which shall be a date not earlier than the date 30 days prior
      to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith and
      not later than the date such solicitation is completed. If such a record
      date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
      consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record
      date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such
      record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining
      whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities have
      authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization,
      direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the
      Outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; provided
      that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such
      record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective
      pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than 180 days after
      the record date and that no such authorization, agreement or consent may
      be amended, withdrawn or revoked once given by a Holder, unless the
      Company shall provide for such amendment, withdrawal or revocation in
      conjunction with such solicitation of authorizations, agreements or
      consents or unless and to the extent required by applicable law.

            (f) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
      waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future
      Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon
      the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu
      thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the
      Trustee, any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating
      Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such
      action is made upon such Security.

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

            Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this
Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, (1) the Trustee
by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder
if made, given, furnished or filed in writing and mailed to or with the Trustee
at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Office, or at any
other address previously furnished in writing by the

                                      -13-
<PAGE>   16
Trustee to the Holders or the Company or (2) the Company by the Trustee or by
any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise
herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, given, furnished or filed
with or to the Company addressed to it at the address of its principal office
specified in the first paragraph of this Indenture or at any other address
previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company.

            SECTION 106 Notice to Holders; Waiver.

            Where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to Holders of
Registered Securities by the Company or the Trustee, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing
and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, or by email, to each such Holder
affected by such event, at his physical address or email address as such address
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 Holders of Registered Securities is given by mail, neither
the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any
particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to
other Holders of Registered Securities or the sufficiency of any notice to
Holders of Bearer Securities given as provided herein. Any notice mailed to a
Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively deemed to have been
received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such
notice.

            If by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail
service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such
notice by mail, then such notification to Holders of Registered Securities as
shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient
notification to such Holders for every purpose hereunder.

            Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or otherwise specified
with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 301, where this Indenture
provides for notice to Holders of Bearer Securities of any event, such notice
shall be sufficiently given if published in (1)an Authorized Newspaper in The
City of New York and in such other city or cities as may be specified in such
Securities on a Business Day, or (2) an electronic medium easily accessible by
the Holders as may be specified to such Holders, such publication to be not
later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed
for the giving of such notice. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been
given on the date of such publication or, if published more than once, on the
date of the first such publication.

            If by reason of the suspension of publication of any Authorized
Newspaper or Authorized Newspapers or by reason of any other cause it shall be
impracticable to publish any notice to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided
above, then such notification to Holders of Bearer Securities as shall be given
with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute sufficient notice to such
Holders for every purpose hereunder. Neither the failure to give notice by
publication to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided above, nor any defect in
any notice so published, shall affect the

                                      -14-
<PAGE>   17
sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Bearer Securities or
the sufficiency of any notice to Holders of Registered Securities given as
provided herein.

            Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or
waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English
language, except that any published notice may be in an official language of the
country of publication.

            Where this Indenture 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 Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such
filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such waiver.

            SECTION 107 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 108 Successors and Assigns.

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

            SECTION 109 Separability Clause.

            In case any provision in this Indenture or in any Security or coupon
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 110 Benefits of Indenture.

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

            SECTION 111 Governing Law.

            This Indenture and the Securities and coupons shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York without regard
to principles of conflicts of laws. This Indenture is subject to the provisions
of the Trust Indenture Act that are required to be part of this Indenture and
shall, to the extent applicable, be governed by such provisions.

            SECTION 112 Legal Holidays.

            In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date,

                                      -15-
<PAGE>   18
Repayment Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated Maturity or Maturity of any
Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then
(notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or any Security or coupon
other than a provision in the Securities of any series which specifically states
that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section), payment of principal
(or premium, if any) or interest, if any, need not be made at such Place of
Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at
such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest
Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date or sinking fund payment date, or
at the Stated Maturity or Maturity; provided that no interest shall accrue on
the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date,
Redemption Date, Repayment Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated Maturity or
Maturity, as the case may be.

            SECTION 113 Conflict of Any Provision of Indenture with Trust
                        Indenture Act.

            If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits,
qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed by TIA Sections 310 to 318,
inclusive, or conflicts with any provision (an "incorporated provision")
required by or deemed to be included in this Indenture by operation of such TIA
Sections or any section of the TIA, such imposed duties or incorporated
provisions shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or
excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or
excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so
modified or excluded, as the case may be.

            SECTION 114 No Recourse against Others.

            A director, officer, employee, agent, representative, stockholder or
equity holder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any
obligations of the Company under the Securities or this Indenture or for any
claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their
creation. Each Holder by accepting any of the Securities waives and releases all
such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for
the issue of the Securities.

            SECTION 115 Waiver of Trial by Jury.

            The Company, Trustee, and Holders hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waive the right to trial by jury in connection with any claim
arising out of or relating to the Securities and under this Indenture.

                                  ARTICLE TWO

                                SECURITIES FORMS

Securities,

                                      -16-

if any, of each series and related coupons shall be in substantially the forms
as shall be established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto or
approved from time to time by or pursuant to a Board Resolution in accordance
with Section 301, shall have such appropriate insertions, omissions,
substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this
Indenture or any indenture supplemental hereto, and may have such letters,
numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends or
endorsements placed thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and as are not
inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, or as may be required to
comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with
any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which the Securities may be
listed, or to conform to usage. If the forms of Securities of any series are
established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of an
appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or an
Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to
the delivery of the Company Order contemplated by Section 303 for the
authentication and delivery of such Securities.

            The Trustee's certificate of authentication on all Securities shall
be in substantially the form set forth in this Article.

            Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, Bearer
Securities shall have interest coupons attached.

            The definitive Securities and coupons shall be printed, lithographed
or engraved or produced by any combination of these methods on a steel engraved
border or steel engraved borders or may be produced in any other manner, all as
determined by the Officers executing such Securities or coupons, as evidenced by
their execution of such Securities or coupons.

            SECTION 202 Form of Trustee's Certificate of Authentication.

            Subject to Section 611, the Trustee's certificate of authentication
shall be in substantially the following form:

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

            THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK,
            as Trustee


            By:  _____________________
                 Authorized Officer


            SECTION 203 Securities Issuable in Global Form.

            If Securities of or within a series are issuable in global form, as
specified as contemplated by Section 301, then, notwithstanding clause (8) of
Section 301 and the

                                      -17-
<PAGE>   20
provisions of Section 302, any such Security shall represent such of the
Outstanding Securities of such series as shall be specified therein and may
provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities
of such series from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount
of Outstanding Securities of such series represented thereby may from time to
time be increased or decreased to reflect exchanges. Any endorsement of a
Security in global form to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in
the amount, of Outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the
Trustee in such manner and upon instructions given by such Person or Persons as
shall be specified therein or in the Company Order to be delivered to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 303 or 304. Subject to the provisions of Section 303
and, if applicable, Section 304, the Trustee shall deliver and redeliver any
Security in permanent global form in the manner and upon instructions given by
the Person or Persons specified therein or in the applicable Company Order. If a
Company Order pursuant to Section 303 or 304 has been, or simultaneously is,
delivered, any instructions by the Company with respect to endorsement, delivery
or redelivery of a Security in global form shall be in writing but need not
comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel.

            The provisions of the last sentence of Section 303 shall apply to
any Security represented by a Security in global form if such Security was never
issued and sold by the Company and the Company delivers to the Trustee the
Security in global form together with written instructions (which need not
comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel)
with regard to the reduction in the principal amount of Securities represented
thereby, together with the written statement contemplated by the last sentence
of Section 303.

            Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 307, unless otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 301, payment of principal of (and premium,
if any) and interest, if any, on any Security in permanent global form shall be
made to the Person or Persons specified therein.

            Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 309 and except as provided
in the preceding paragraph, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the
Company and the Trustee shall treat as the Holder of such principal amount of
Outstanding Securities represented by a permanent global Security (i) in the
case of a permanent global Security in registered form, the Holder of such
permanent global Security in registered form, or (ii) in the case of a permanent
global Security in bearer form, Euroclear or Clearstream.

            SECTION 204 Form of Legend for Book-Entry Securities.

            Any Global Security authenticated and delivered hereunder shall bear
a legend (which would be in addition to any other legends required in the case
of a restricted Security) in substantially the following form:

            THIS SECURITY IS A GLOBAL SECURITY WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE

            The aggregate principal amount of Securities which may be
authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited.

            The Securities shall rank equally and pari passu and may be issued
in one or more series. Each series of Securities may be reopened and more
Securities of such series issued unless otherwise specified in an indenture
supplement. There shall be established in one or more Board Resolutions or
pursuant to authority granted by one or more Board Resolutions and, subject to
Section 303, set forth, or determined in the manner provided, in an Officers'
Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, prior
to the issuance of Securities of any series, any or all of the following, as
applicable (each of which (except for the matters set forth in clauses (1), (2)
and (15) below), if so provided, may be determined from time to time by the
Company with respect to unissued Securities of the series when issued from time
to time):

      distinguish the Securities of such series from all other series of
      Securities);

      of the series that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture

      series pursuant to Section 304, 305, 306, 906, 1107 or 1305) and if such
      series may not be reopened for additional Securities of that series; in
      the event that such series of Securities may be reopened from time to time
      for issuances of additional Securities of such series, the terms thereof
      may indicate whether the Company may establish additional or different
      terms with respect to such additional Securities;

      any,) of the Securities of the series shall be payable;

            (4) the rate or rates at which the Securities of the series shall
      bear interest, if any, or the method by which such rate or rates shall be

      shall be determined, and the basis upon which such interest shall be

      surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange, where Securities of
      the series may be surrendered for exchange, where Securities of that
      series that are convertible or exchangeable may be surrendered for
      conversion or exchange, as applicable, and where notices or demands to or
      upon the Company in respect of the Securities of the series and this

      payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on
      the Securities of the series shall be made or in which the Securities of
      the series shall be denominated and the particular provisions applicable
      thereto in accordance with, in addition to or in lieu of any of the
      provisions of Section 312;

            (12) whether the amount of payments of principal of (or premium, if
      any) or interest, if any, on the Securities of the series may be
      determined with reference to an index, formula or other method (which
      index, formula or method may be based, without limitation, on one or more
      Currencies, commodities, equity indices or other indices), and the manner
      in which such amounts shall be determined;

            (13) whether the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if
      any, on the Securities of the series are to be payable, at the election of
      the Company or a Holder thereof, in one or more Currencies other than that
      in which such Securities are denominated or stated to be payable, the
      period or periods within which (including the Election Date), and the
      terms and conditions upon which, such election may be made, and the time
      and manner of determining the exchange rate between the Currency or
      Currencies in which such Securities are denominated or stated to be
      payable and the Currency or Currencies in which such Securities are to be
      paid, in each case in accordance with, in addition to or in lieu of any of
      the provisions of Section 312;

            (14) provisions, if any, granting special rights to the Holders of
      Securities of the series upon the occurrence of such events as may be
      specified;

            (15) any deletions from, modifications of or additions to the Events
      of Default or covenants or other provisions (including any deletions from,
      modifications of or additions to any of the provisions of Section 1007) of
      the Company with respect to Securities of the series, whether or not such
      Events of Default or covenants or other provisions are consistent with the
      Events of Default or covenants or other provisions set forth herein;

            (16) whether Securities of the series are to be issuable as
      Registered Securities, Bearer Securities or both, any restrictions
      applicable to the offer, sale or delivery of Bearer Securities and the
      terms upon which Bearer Securities of the series may be exchanged for
      Registered Securities of the series and vice versa (if permitted by
      applicable laws and regulations), whether any Securities of the series are
      to be issuable initially in temporary global form and whether any
      Securities of the series are to be issuable in permanent global form with
      or without coupons and, if so, whether beneficial owners of interests in
      any such permanent global Security may exchange such interests for
      Securities of such series in certificated

                                      -21-
<PAGE>   24

      depository for such series;

            (17) the date as of which any Bearer Securities of the series and
      any temporary global Security representing Outstanding Securities of the
      series shall be dated if other than the date of original issuance of the
      first Security of the series to be issued;

            (18) the Person to whom any interest on any Registered Security of
      the series shall be payable, if other than the Person in whose name such
      Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the
      close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, the manner
      in which, or the Person to whom, any interest on any Bearer Security of
      the series shall be payable, if otherwise than upon presentation and
      surrender of the coupons appertaining thereto as they severally mature,
      and the extent to which, or the manner in which, any interest payable on a
      temporary global Security on an Interest Payment Date will be paid if
      other than in the manner provided in Section 304;

            (19) the applicability, if any, of Sections 1402 and 1403 to the

      any additional covenants subject to covenant defeasance) and any
      provisions in modification of, in addition to or in lieu of any of the
      provisions of Article Fourteen;

            (20) if the Securities of such series are to be issuable in
      definitive form (whether upon original issue or upon exchange of a
      temporary Security of such series) only upon receipt of certain
      certificates or other documents or satisfaction of other conditions, then
      the form and/or terms of such certificates, documents or conditions;

            (21) whether, under what circumstances and the Currency in which,
      the Company will pay Additional Amounts as contemplated by Section 1005 on
      the Securities of the series to any Holder who is not a United States
      person (including any modification to the definition of such term) in
      respect of any tax, assessment or governmental charge and, if so, whether

            (23) if the Securities of the series are to be convertible into or
      exchangeable for any securities or property of any Person (including the
      Company), the terms and conditions upon which such Securities of the
      series will be so convertible or exchangeable (including, without
      limitation, the initial conversion price or rate, the conversion period,
      the conversion agent, if any,

                                      -22-
<PAGE>   25
      adjustments of the applicable conversion price or rate and any
      requirements with respect to the reservation of shares or Securities for
      purposes of conversion);

            (24) whether payment of any amounts due hereunder will be guaranteed
      by one or more guarantors, including subsidiaries of the Company; and

            (25) any other terms of the series (which terms shall not be
      inconsistent with the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act).

            All Securities of any one series and the coupons appertaining to any
Bearer Securities of such series shall be substantially identical except, in the
case of Registered Securities, as to denomination and except as may otherwise be
provided in or pursuant to such Board Resolution (subject to Section 303) and
set forth in such Officers' Certificate or in any such indenture supplemental
hereto. All Securities of any one series need not be issued at the same time
and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened, without the consent of
the Holders, for issuances of additional Securities of such series or to
establish additional terms of such series of Securities (which additional terms
shall only be applicable to unissued or additional Securities of such series).

            If any of the terms of the Securities of any series are established
by action taken pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions, a copy of an
appropriate record of such action(s) shall be certified by the Secretary or an
Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to
the delivery of the Officers' Certificate setting forth the terms of the
Securities of such series.

            SECTION 302 Denominations.

            The Securities of each series shall be issuable in such
denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by Section 301. In the
absence of any such provision with respect to Securities of any series, the
principal, premium and interest and Additional Amounts with respect to the
Securities shall be payable in Dollars. With respect to Securities of any series
denominated in Dollars, in the absence of any such provisions with respect to
the Securities of any series, the Registered Securities of such series, other
than Registered Securities issued in global form (which may be of any
denomination) shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral
multiple thereof, and the Bearer Securities of such series, other than Bearer
Securities issued in global form (which may be of any denomination), shall be
issuable in denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof.

            SECTION 303 Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

            The Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto shall be
executed on behalf of the Company by any Officer. The signature of any Officers
on the Securities and coupons may be manual or facsimile signatures of the
present or any future Officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on
the Securities.

            Securities or coupons bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of

                                      -23-
<PAGE>   26
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
coupons or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities or coupons.

            At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery
of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series, together
with any coupon appertaining thereto, executed by the Company, to the Trustee
for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and
delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company
Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities; either to the Company or
according to the directions contained in the Company Order; provided, however,
that, in connection with its original issuance, no Bearer Security shall be
mailed or otherwise delivered to any location in the United States; and provided
further that, unless otherwise specified with respect to any series of
Securities pursuant to Section 301, a Bearer Security may be delivered in
connection with its original issuance only if the Person entitled to receive
such Bearer Security shall have furnished a certificate in the form set forth in
Exhibit A-1 to this Indenture or such other certificate as may be specified with
respect to any series of Securities pursuant to Section 301, dated no earlier
than 15 days prior to the earlier of the date on which such Bearer Security is
delivered and the date on which any temporary Security first becomes
exchangeable for such Bearer Security in accordance with the terms of such
temporary Security and this Indenture. If any Security shall be represented by a
permanent global Bearer Security, then, for purposes of this Section and Section
304, the notation of a beneficial owner's interest therein upon original
issuance of such Security or upon exchange of a portion of a temporary global
Security shall be deemed to be delivery in connection with its original issuance
of such beneficial owner's interest in such permanent global Security. Except as
permitted by Section 306, the Trustee shall not authenticate and deliver any
Bearer Security unless all appurtenant coupons for interest then matured have
been detached and cancelled. If all the Securities of any series are not to be
issued at one time and if the Board Resolution or supplemental indenture
establishing such series shall so permit, such Company Order may set forth
procedures acceptable to the Trustee for the issuance of such Securities and
determining the terms of particular Securities of such series, such as interest
rate, maturity date, date of issuance and date from which interest shall accrue.
In authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities
under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be
entitled to receive, and (subject to TIA Sections 315(a) through 315(d)) shall
be fully protected in relying upon,

            (A)   an Opinion of Counsel stating,

                  (a) that the form or forms of such Securities and any coupons
            have been established in conformity with the provisions of this
            Indenture;

                  (b)   that the terms of such Securities and any coupons
            have been established in conformity with the provisions of this
            Indenture; and

                  (c) that such Securities, together with any coupons

                                      -24-
<PAGE>   27
            appertaining thereto, when completed by appropriate insertions and
            executed and delivered by the Company to the Trustee for
            authentication in accordance with this Indenture, authenticated and
            delivered by the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture and
            issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions
            specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute legal, valid
            and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance
            with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
            reorganization and other similar laws of general applicability
            relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights, to
            general equitable principles and to such other qualifications as
            such counsel shall conclude do not materially affect the rights of
            Holders of such Securities and any coupons;

            (B) an Officers' Certificate stating, to the best of the knowledge
      of the signers of such certificate, that no Event of Default with respect
      to any of the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing; and

            (C) an executed supplemental indenture (if any).

            Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 301 and of this Section
303, if all the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it
shall not be necessary to deliver an Officers' Certificate otherwise required
pursuant to Section 301 or the Company Order, Opinion of Counsel or Officers'
Certificate otherwise required pursuant to the preceding paragraph at the time
of issuance of each Security of such series, but such order, opinion and
certificates, with appropriate modifications to cover such future issuances,
shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the first Security of
such series.

            If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall
not be required to authenticate and deliver any such Securities if the issue of
such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's own rights,
duties, obligations or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or
otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.
Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee will not be
required to authenticate Securities denominated in a Foreign Currency if the
Trustee reasonably believes that it would be unable to perform its duties with
respect to such Securities.

            Each Registered Security shall be dated the date of its
authentication and each Bearer Security shall be dated as of the date specified
as contemplated by Section 301.

            No Security or coupon shall be entitled to any benefit under this
Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such
Security or Security to which such coupon appertains a certificate of
authentication substantially in the form provided for herein duly executed by
the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent 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

                                      -25-
<PAGE>   28
authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this
Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been
authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company,
and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as
provided in Section 310 together with a written statement (which need not comply
with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating
that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all
purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been
authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the
benefits of this Indenture.

            SECTION 304 Temporary Securities.

            (a) Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series,
the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten,
mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination,
substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they
are issued, in registered form, or, if authorized, in bearer form with one or
more coupons or without coupons, and with such appropriate insertions,
omissions, substitutions and other variations as the Officers executing such
Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such
Securities. In the case of Securities of any series, such temporary Securities
may be in global form.

            Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form (which
shall be exchanged in accordance with Section 304(b) or as otherwise provided in
or pursuant to a Board Resolution), if temporary Securities of any series are
issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be
prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive
Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be
exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the
temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a
Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender
for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series
(accompanied by any non-matured coupons appertaining thereto), the Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a
like principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized
denominations; provided, however, that no definitive Bearer Security shall be
delivered in exchange for a temporary Registered Security; and provided further
that a definitive Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary
Bearer Security only in compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 303.
Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects
be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities
of such series.

            (b) Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to a Board Resolution,
this Section 304(b) shall govern the exchange of temporary Securities issued in
global form. If temporary Securities of any series are issued in global form,
any such temporary global Security shall, unless otherwise provided therein, be
delivered to the London office of a depositary or common depositary (the "Common
Depositary"), for the benefit

                                      -26-
<PAGE>   29
of Euroclear and Clearstream, for credit to the respective accounts of the
beneficial owners of such Securities (or to such other accounts as they may
direct).

            Without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the date
specified in, or determined pursuant to the terms of, any such temporary global
Security (the "Exchange Date"), the Company shall deliver to the Trustee
definitive Securities, in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal
amount of such temporary global Security, executed by the Company. On or after
the Exchange Date, such temporary global Security shall be surrendered by the
Common Depositary to the Trustee, as the Company's agent for such purpose, to be
exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Securities
without charge, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for
each portion of such temporary global Security and upon receipt of the Company
Order described in Section 303, an equal aggregate principal amount of
definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like
tenor as the portion of such temporary global Security to be exchanged. The
definitive Securities to be delivered in exchange for any such temporary global
Security shall be in bearer form, registered form, permanent global bearer form
or permanent global registered form, or any combination thereof, as specified as
contemplated by Section 301, and, if any combination thereof is so specified, as
requested by the beneficial owner thereof; provided, however, that, unless
otherwise specified in such temporary global Security, upon such presentation by
the Common Depositary, such temporary global Security is accompanied by a
certificate dated the Exchange Date or a subsequent date and signed by Euroclear
as to the portion of such temporary global Security held for its account then to
be exchanged and a certificate dated the Exchange Date or a subsequent date and
signed by Clearstream as to the portion of such temporary global Security held
for its account then to be exchanged, each in the form set forth in Exhibit A-2
to this Indenture or in such other form as may be established pursuant to
Section 301; and provided further that definitive Bearer Securities shall be
delivered in exchange for a portion of a temporary global Security only in
compliance with the requirements of Section 303.

            Unless otherwise specified in such temporary global Security, the
interest of a beneficial owner of Securities of a series in a temporary global
Security shall be exchanged for definitive Securities of the same series and of
like tenor following the Exchange Date when the account holder instructs
Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, to request such exchange on his
behalf and delivers to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, a
certificate in the form set forth in Exhibit A-1 to this Indenture (or in such
other form as may be established pursuant to Section 301), dated no earlier than
15 days prior to the Exchange Date, copies of which certificate shall be
available from the offices of Euroclear and Clearstream, the Trustee, any
Authenticating Agent appointed for such series of Securities and each Paying
Agent. Unless otherwise specified in such temporary global Security, any such
exchange shall be made free of charge to the beneficial owners of such temporary
global Security, except that a Person receiving definitive Securities must bear
the cost of insurance, postage, transportation and the like unless such Person
takes delivery of such definitive Securities in person at the offices of
Euroclear or Clearstream. Definitive Securities in bearer form to be delivered
in exchange for any portion of a temporary global Security shall be delivered
only outside the United States.

<PAGE>   30
            Until exchanged in full as hereinabove provided, the temporary
Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits
under this Indenture as definitive Securities of the same series and of like
tenor authenticated and delivered hereunder, except that, unless otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 301, interest payable on a temporary global
Security on an Interest Payment Date for Securities of such series occurring
prior to the applicable Exchange Date shall be payable to Euroclear and
Clearstream on such Interest Payment Date upon delivery by Euroclear and
Clearstream to the Trustee of a certificate or certificates in the form set
forth in Exhibit A-2 to this Indenture (or in such other forms as may be
established pursuant to Section 301), for credit without further interest on or
after such Interest Payment Date to the respective accounts of Persons who are
the beneficial owners of such temporary global Security on such Interest Payment
Date and who have each delivered to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may
be, a certificate dated no earlier than 15 days prior to the Interest Payment
Date occurring prior to such Exchange Date in the form set forth as Exhibit A-1
to this Indenture (or in such other forms as may be established pursuant to
Section 301). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, the
certifications made pursuant to this paragraph shall satisfy the certification
requirements of the preceding two paragraphs of this Section 304(b) and of the
third paragraph of Section 303 of this Indenture and the interests of the
Persons who are the beneficial owners of the temporary global Security with
respect to which such certification was made will be exchanged for definitive
Securities of the same series and of like tenor on the Exchange Date or the date
of certification if such date occurs after the Exchange Date, without further
act or deed by such beneficial owners. Except as otherwise provided in this
paragraph, no payments of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any,
owing with respect to a beneficial interest in a temporary global Security will
be made unless and until such interest in such temporary global Security shall
have been exchanged for an interest in a definitive Security. Any interest so
received by Euroclear and Clearstream and not paid as herein provided shall be
returned to the Trustee prior to the expiration of two years after such Interest
Payment Date in order to be repaid to the Company.

            SECTION 305 Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

            The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of
the Trustee or in any office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment a
register for each series of Securities (the registers maintained in such office
or in any such office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being
herein sometimes referred to collectively as the "Security Register") in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall
provide for the registration of Registered Securities and of transfers of
Registered Securities. The Security Register shall be in written form or any
other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable
time. The Trustee, at its Institutional Trust Services Office, is hereby
initially appointed "Security Registrar" for the purpose of registering
Registered Securities and transfers of Registered Securities on such Security
Register as herein provided. In the event that the Trustee shall cease to be
Security Registrar, it shall have the right to examine the Security Register at
all reasonable times.

                                      -28-
<PAGE>   31
            Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Registered
Security of any series at any office or agency of the Company in a Place of
Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, subject to the terms and conditions of this Article
Three, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new
Registered Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of
a like aggregate principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding and containing identical terms and provisions.

            At the option of the Holder, Registered Securities of any series may
be exchanged for other Registered Securities of the same series, of any
authorized denomination or denominations and of a like aggregate principal
amount, containing identical terms and provisions, upon surrender of the
Registered Securities to be exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any
Registered Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Registered
Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Unless
otherwise specified with respect to any series of Securities as contemplated by
Section 301, Bearer Securities may not be issued in exchange for Registered
Securities.

            If (but only if) permitted by the applicable Board Resolution and
(subject to Section 303) set forth in the applicable Officers' Certificate, or
in any indenture supplemental hereto, delivered as contemplated by Section 301,
at the option of the Holder, Bearer Securities of any series may be exchanged
for Registered Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations and
of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the Bearer
Securities to be exchanged at any such office or agency, with all unmatured
coupons and all matured coupons in default thereto appertaining. If the Holder
of a Bearer Security is unable to produce any such unmatured coupon or coupons
or matured coupon or coupons in default, any such permitted exchange may be
effected if the Bearer Securities are accompanied by payment in funds acceptable
to the Company in an amount equal to the face amount of such missing coupon or
coupons, or the surrender of such missing coupon or coupons may be waived by the
Company and the Trustee if there is furnished to them such security or indemnity
as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If
thereafter the Holder of such Security shall surrender to any Paying Agent any
such missing coupon in respect of which such a payment shall have been made,
such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such payment; provided,
however, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 1002, interest
represented by coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of
those coupons at an office or agency located outside the United States.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in case a Bearer Security of any series is
surrendered at any such office or agency in a permitted exchange for a
Registered Security of the same series and like tenor after the close of
business at such office or agency on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the
opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment
Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such
office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest,
such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the coupon relating to such
Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, and
interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, will not be payable on such

                                      -29-
<PAGE>   32
Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in
respect of the Registered Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security,
but will be payable only to the Holder of such coupon when due in accordance
with the provisions of this Indenture.

            Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company
shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities
which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 301, any permanent global Security shall be exchangeable
only as provided in this paragraph. If any beneficial owner of an interest in a
permanent global Security is entitled to exchange such interest for Securities
of such series and of like tenor and principal amount of another authorized form
and denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 301 and provided that
any applicable notice provided in the permanent global Security shall have been
given, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the
earliest date on which such interest may be so exchanged, the Company shall
deliver to the Trustee definitive Securities in aggregate principal amount equal
to the principal amount of such beneficial owner's interest in such permanent
global Security, executed by the Company. On or after the earliest date on which
such interests may be so exchanged, such permanent global Security shall be
surrendered by the Common Depositary or such other depositary as shall be
specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the
Company's agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or from time to time
in part, for definitive Securities without charge and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such permanent global
Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the
same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such
permanent global Security to be exchanged which, unless the Securities of the
series are not issuable both as Bearer Securities and as Registered Securities,
as specified as contemplated by Section 301, shall be in the form of Bearer
Securities or Registered Securities, or any combination thereof, as shall be
specified by the beneficial owner thereof; provided, however, that no such
exchanges may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days
before any selection of Securities to be redeemed and ending on the relevant
Redemption Date if the Security for which exchange is requested may be among
those selected for redemption; and provided further that no Bearer Security
delivered in exchange for a portion of a permanent global Security shall be
mailed or otherwise delivered to any location in the United States. If a
Registered Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a permanent global
Security after the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange
occurs on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such
office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special
Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the
related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest, interest or Defaulted
Interest, as the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date
or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such Registered
Security, but will be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for
payment, as the case may be, only to the Person to whom interest in respect of
such portion of such permanent global Security is payable in accordance with the

                                      -30-
<PAGE>   33
provisions of this Indenture.

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

            Every Registered Security presented or surrendered for registration
of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Security
Registrar) 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.

            No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than
exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 906, 1107 or 1305 not involving any transfer.

            The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange any Security if such Security may be among those
selected for redemption during a period beginning at the opening of business 15
days before selection of the Securities to be redeemed under Section 1103 or
1203 and ending at the close of business on (A) if such Securities are issuable
only as Registered Securities, the day of the mailing of the relevant notice of
redemption and (B) if such Securities are issuable as Bearer Securities, the day
of the first publication of the relevant notice of redemption or, if such
Securities are also issuable as Registered Securities and there is no
publication, the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, or (ii) to
register the transfer of or exchange any Registered Security so selected for
redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any Registered Security
to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed, or (iii) to
exchange any Bearer Security so selected for redemption except that such a
Bearer Security may be exchanged for a Registered Security of that series and
like tenor, provided that such Registered Security shall be simultaneously
surrendered for redemption, or (iv) to issue, register the transfer of or
exchange any Security which has been surrendered for repayment at the option of
the Holder, except the portion, if any, of such Security not to be so repaid.

            The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine
or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this
Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest
in any Security (including any transfers between or among depository
participants or beneficial owners of interests in any global Security) other
than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or
evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly
required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine
substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

            SECTION 306 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

                                      -31-
<PAGE>   34
            If any mutilated Security or a Security with a mutilated coupon
appertaining to it is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company, together with,
in proper cases, such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company or
the Trustee to save each of them or any agent of either of them harmless, the
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefor a new Security of the same series and principal amount, containing
identical terms and provisions and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding, with coupons corresponding to the coupons, if any, appertaining to
the surrendered Security.

            If there shall be delivered to the Company and to the Trustee (i)
evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security
or coupon, and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to
save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence
of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security or coupon has been
acquired by a protected purchaser (as defined in Article 8 of the Uniform
Commercial Code), the Company shall execute and upon receipt of a Company Order
indicating its request and according to its directions the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security
or in exchange for the Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen coupon
appertains (with all appurtenant coupons not destroyed, lost or stolen), a new
Security of the same series and principal amount, containing identical terms and
provisions and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, with coupons
corresponding to the coupons, if any, appertaining to such destroyed, lost or
stolen Security or to the Security to which such destroyed, lost or stolen
coupon appertains.

            Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous two paragraphs, in
case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security or coupon has become
or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may,
instead of issuing a new Security, with coupons corresponding to the coupons, if
any, appertaining to such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security or to
the Security to which such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen coupon
appertains, pay such Security or coupon; provided, however, that payment of
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on Bearer Securities
shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 1002, be payable only at an
office or agency located outside the United States and, unless otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 301, any interest on Bearer Securities
shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the coupons
appertaining thereto.

            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 of any series, together with its coupons, if any,
issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen
Security, or in exchange for a Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen
coupon appertains, shall constitute a valid, original additional contractual
obligation of the Company evidencing the same debt as the Security and coupon in
lieu of which it is issued, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen
Security and its coupons, if any, or the destroyed, lost or stolen coupon shall
be

                                      -32-
<PAGE>   35
at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of
this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of
that series and their coupons, if any, 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 or coupons.

            SECTION 307 Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved; Optional
                        Interest Reset.

            (a) Except as otherwise specified with respect to a series of
Securities in accordance with the provisions of Section 301, interest, if any,
on any Registered Security that 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 at the office or
agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002;
provided, however, that each installment of interest, if any, on any Registered
Security may at the Company's option be paid by (i) mailing a check for such
interest, payable to or upon the written order of the Person entitled thereto
pursuant to Section 309, to the address of such Person as it appears on the
Security Register or (ii) transfer to an account maintained by the payee located
inside the United States.

            Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with
respect to the Securities of any series, payment of interest, if any, may be
made, in the case of a Bearer Security, by transfer to an account maintained by
the payee with a bank located outside the United States.

            Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301, every
permanent global Security will provide that interest, if any, payable on any
Interest Payment Date will be paid to each of Euroclear and Clearstream with
respect to that portion of such permanent global Security held for its account
by the Common Depositary, for the purpose of permitting each of Euroclear and
Clearstream to credit the interest, if any, received by it in respect of such
permanent global Security to the accounts of the beneficial owners thereof.

            In case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered in exchange
for a Registered Security of such series after the close of business (at an
office or agency in a Place of Payment for such series) on any Regular Record
Date and before the opening of business (at such office or agency) on the next
succeeding Interest Payment Date, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered
without the coupon relating to such Interest Payment Date and interest will not
be payable on such Interest Payment Date in respect of the Registered Security
issued in exchange for such Bearer Security, but will be payable only to the
Holder of such coupon when due in accordance with the provisions of this
Indenture.

            Except as otherwise specified with respect to a series of Securities
in

                                      -33-
<PAGE>   36
accordance with the provisions of Section 301, any interest on any Registered
Security of any series that 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 thereof on the
relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such
Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as
provided in clause (1) or (2) below:

            (1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest
      to the Persons in whose names the Registered Securities of such series (or
      their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of
      business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted
      Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall
      notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed
      to be paid on each Registered Security of such series and the date of the
      proposed payment (which shall not be less than 20 days after such notice
      is received by the Trustee), and at the same time the Company shall
      deposit with the Trustee an amount of money in the Currency in which the
      Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified
      pursuant to Section 301 for the Securities of such series and except, if
      applicable, as provided in Sections 312(b), 312(d) and 312(e)) 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 on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when
      deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to
      such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee
      shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest
      which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to
      the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the
      receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee
      shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the
      name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed
      payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to
      be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Registered
      Securities of such series 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 the Registered Securities of
      such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at
      the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be
      payable pursuant to the following clause (2). In case a Bearer Security of
      any series is surrendered at the office or agency in a Place of Payment
      for such series in exchange for a Registered Security of such series after
      the close of business at such office or agency on any Special Record Date
      and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related
      proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest, such Bearer Security
      shall be surrendered without the coupon relating to such proposed date of
      payment and Defaulted Interest will not be payable on such proposed date
      of payment in respect of the Registered Security issued in exchange for
      such Bearer Security, but will be payable only to the Holder of such
      coupon when due in accordance with the provisions of this

                                      -34-
<PAGE>   37
      Indenture.

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

            (b) The provisions of this Section 307(b) may be made applicable to
any series of Securities pursuant to Section 301 (with such modifications,
additions or substitutions as may be specified pursuant to such Section 301).
The interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such
interest rate, if applicable) on any Security of such series may be reset by the
Company on the date or dates specified on the face of such Security (each an
"Optional Reset Date"). The Company may exercise such option with respect to
such Security by notifying the Trustee of such exercise at least 45 but not more
than 60 days prior to an Optional Reset Date for such Security. Not later than
40 days prior to each Optional Reset Date, the Trustee shall transmit, in the
manner provided for in Section 106, to the Holder of any such Security a notice
(the "Reset Notice") indicating whether the Company has elected to reset the
interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such
interest rate, if applicable), and if so (i) such new interest rate (or such new
spread or spread multiplier, if applicable) and (ii) the provisions, if any, for
redemption during the period from such Optional Reset Date to the next Optional
Reset Date or if there is no such next Optional Reset Date, to the Stated
Maturity of such Security (each such period a "Subsequent Interest Period"),
including the date or dates on which or the period or periods during which and
the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the Subsequent
Interest Period.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the
Optional Reset Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the interest rate
(or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if
applicable) provided for in the Reset Notice and establish a higher interest
rate (or a spread or spread multiplier providing for a higher interest rate, if
applicable) for the Subsequent Interest Period by causing the Trustee to
transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 106, notice of such higher
interest rate (or such spread or spread multiplier providing for a higher
interest rate, if applicable) to the Holder of such Security. Such notice shall
be irrevocable. All Securities with respect to which the interest rate (or the
spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable)
is reset on an Optional Reset Date, and with respect to which the Holders of
such Securities have not tendered such Securities for repayment (or have validly
revoked any such tender) pursuant to the next succeeding paragraph, will bear
such higher interest rate (or such spread or spread multiplier providing for a
higher interest rate, if applicable).

            The Holder of any such Security may have the option to elect
repayment by the Company of the principal of such Security on each Optional
Reset Date at a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus interest
accrued to such Optional Reset Date. In order to obtain repayment on an Optional
Reset Date, the Holder must follow the

                                       -35-
<PAGE>   38
procedures set forth in Article Thirteen for repayment at the option of Holders
except that the period for delivery or notification to the Trustee shall be at
least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to such Optional Reset Date and except
that, if the Holder has tendered any Security for repayment pursuant to the
Reset Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such
tender or repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before such
Optional Reset Date.

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

            SECTION 308 Optional Extension of Maturity.

            The provisions of this Section 308 may be made applicable to any
series of Securities pursuant to Section 301 (with such modifications, additions
or substitutions as may be specified pursuant to such Section 301). The Stated
Maturity of any Security of such series may be extended at the option of the
Company for the period or periods specified on the face of such Security (each
an "Extension Period") up to but not beyond the date (the "Final Maturity") set
forth on the face of such Security. The Company may exercise such option with
respect to any Security by notifying the Trustee of such exercise at least 45
but not more than 60 days prior to the Stated Maturity of such Security in
effect prior to the exercise of such option (the "Original Stated Maturity"). If
the Company exercises such option, the Trustee shall transmit, in the manner
provided for in Section 106, to the Holder of such Security not later than 40
days prior to the Original Stated Maturity a notice (the "Extension Notice")
indicating (i) the election of the Company to extend the Stated Maturity, (ii)
the new Stated Maturity, (iii) the interest rate (or spread, spread multiplier
or other formula used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable), if any,
applicable to the Extension Period and (iv) the provisions, if any, for
redemption during such Extension Period. Upon the Trustee's transmittal of the
Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity of such Security shall be extended
automatically and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described
in the next paragraph, such Security will have the same terms as prior to the
transmittal of such Extension Notice.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days before the
Original Stated Maturity of such Security, the Company may, at its option,
revoke the interest rate (or spread, spread multiplier or other formula used to
calculate such interest rate, if applicable) provided for in the Extension
Notice and establish a higher interest rate (or spread, spread multiplier or
other formula used to calculate such higher interest rate, if applicable) for
the Extension Period by causing the Trustee to transmit, in the manner provided
for in Section 106, notice of such higher interest rate (or spread, spread
multiplier or other formula used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable)
to the Holder of such Security. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Securities
with respect to which the Stated Maturity is extended will bear such higher
interest rate.

            If the Company extends the Stated Maturity of any Security, the
Holder

                                      -36-
<PAGE>   39
will have the option to elect repayment of such Security by the Company on the
Original Stated Maturity at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus
interest accrued to such date. In order to obtain repayment on the Original
Stated Maturity once the Company has extended the Stated Maturity thereof, the
Holder must follow the procedures set forth in Article Thirteen for repayment at
the option of Holders, except that the period for delivery or notification to
the Trustee shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to the Original
Stated Maturity and except that, if the Holder has tendered any Security for
repayment pursuant to an Extension Notice, the Holder may by written notice to
the Trustee revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the
tenth day before the Original Stated Maturity.

            SECTION 309 Persons Deemed Owners.

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

            Title to any Bearer Security and any coupons appertaining thereto
shall pass by delivery. The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or
the Trustee may treat the bearer of any Bearer Security and the bearer of any
coupon as the absolute owner of such Security or coupon for the purpose of
receiving payment thereof or on account thereof and for all other purposes
whatsoever, whether or not such Security or coupon be overdue, and neither the
Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

            None of the Company, 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 Security in global form or for maintaining, supervising or
reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any global Security,
nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee, or any agent of the
Company or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy
or other authorization furnished by any depositary, as a Holder, with respect to
such global Security or impair, as between such depositary and owners of
beneficial interests in such global Security, the operation of customary
practices governing the exercise of the rights of such depositary (or its
nominee) as Holder of such global Security.

            SECTION 310 Cancellation.

            All Securities and coupons surrendered for payment, redemption,

<PAGE>   40
repayment at the option of the Holder, registration of transfer or exchange or
for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person
other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee, and any such Securities and
coupons and Securities and coupons surrendered directly to the Trustee for any
such purpose shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time
deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated
and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner
whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery
to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated
hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Securities so
delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. If the Company shall so
acquire any of the Securities, however, such acquisition shall not operate as a
redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities
unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. No
Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities
cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this
Indenture. Cancelled Securities and coupons held by the Trustee shall be
destroyed by the Trustee and the Trustee shall deliver a certificate of such
destruction to the Company, unless by a Company Order the Company directs the
return of any cancelled Securities to it.

            SECTION 311 Computation of Interest.

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

            SECTION 312 Currency and Manner of Payments in Respect of
                        Securities.

            (a) Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities
pursuant to Section 301, with respect to Registered Securities of any series not
permitting the election provided for in paragraph (b) below or the Holders of
which have not made the election provided for in paragraph (b) below, and with
respect to Bearer Securities of any series, except as provided in paragraph (d)
below, payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any,
on any Registered or Bearer Security of such series will be made in the Currency
in which such Registered Security or Bearer Security, as the case may be, is
payable. The provisions of this Section 312 may be modified or superseded with
respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 301.

            (b) It may be provided pursuant to Section 301 with respect to
Registered Securities of any series that Holders shall have the option, subject
to paragraphs (d) and (e) below, to receive payments of principal of (or
premium, if any) or interest, if any, on such Registered Securities in any of
the Currencies which may be designated for such election by delivering to the
Trustee for such series of Registered Securities a written election with
signature guarantees and in the applicable form established pursuant to Section
301, not later than the close of business on the Election Date immediately
preceding the applicable payment date. If a Holder so elects to receive such
payments in any such Currency, such election will remain in effect for such
Holder

                                      -38-
<PAGE>   41
or any transferee of such Holder until changed by such Holder or such transferee
by written notice to the Trustee for such series of Registered Securities (but
any such change must be made not later than the close of business on the
Election Date immediately preceding the next payment date to be effective for
the payment to be made on such payment date and no such change of election may
be made with respect to payments to be made on any Registered Security of such
series with respect to which an Event of Default has occurred or with respect to
which the Company has deposited funds pursuant to Article Four or Fourteen or
with respect to which a notice of redemption has been given by the Company or a
notice of option to elect repayment has been sent by such Holder or such
transferee). Any Holder of any such Registered Security who shall not have
delivered any such election to the Trustee of such series of Registered
Securities not later than the close of business on the applicable Election Date
will be paid the amount due on the applicable payment date in the relevant
Currency as provided in Section 312(a). The Trustee for each such series of
Registered Securities shall notify the Exchange Rate Agent as soon as
practicable after the Election Date of the aggregate principal amount of
Registered Securities for which Holders have made such written election.

            (c) Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, if the
election referred to in paragraph (b) above has been provided for pursuant to
Section 301, then, unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, not later
than the fourth Business Day after the Election Date for each payment date for
Registered Securities of any series, the Exchange Rate Agent will deliver to the
Company a written notice specifying the Currency in which Registered Securities
of such series are payable, the respective aggregate amounts of principal of
(and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the Registered Securities to be
paid on such payment date, specifying the amounts in such Currency so payable in
respect of the Registered Securities as to which the Holders of Registered
Securities denominated in any Currency shall have elected to be paid in another
Currency as provided in paragraph (b) above. If the election referred to in
paragraph (b) above has been provided for pursuant to Section 301 and if at
least one Holder has made such election, then, unless otherwise specified
pursuant to Section 301, on the second Business Day preceding such payment date
the Company will deliver to the Trustee for such series of Registered Securities
an Exchange Rate Officer's Certificate in respect of the Dollar or Foreign
Currency or Currencies payments to be made on such payment date. Unless
otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, the Dollar or Foreign Currency or
Currencies amount receivable by Holders of Registered Securities who have
elected payment in a Currency as provided in paragraph (b) above shall be
determined by the Company on the basis of the applicable Market Exchange Rate in
effect on the second Business Day (the "Valuation Date") immediately preceding
each payment date, and such determination shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error.

            (d) If a Conversion Event occurs with respect to a Foreign Currency
in which any of the Securities are denominated or payable other than pursuant to
an election provided for pursuant to paragraph (b) above, then with respect to
each date for the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if
any on the applicable Securities denominated or payable in such Foreign Currency
occurring after the last date on which such Foreign Currency was used (the
"Conversion Date"), the Dollar shall be

                                      -39-
<PAGE>   42
the Currency of payment for use on each such payment date. Unless otherwise
specified pursuant to Section 301, the Dollar amount to be paid by the Company
to the Trustee of each such series of Securities and by such Trustee or any
Paying Agent to the Holders of such Securities with respect to such payment date
shall be, in the case of a Foreign Currency other than a currency unit, the
Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency or, in the case of a currency unit,
the Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit, in each case as determined by the
Exchange Rate Agent in the manner provided in paragraph (f) or (g) below.

            (e) Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, if the
Holder of a Registered Security denominated in any Currency shall have elected
to be paid in another Currency as provided in paragraph (b) above, and a
Conversion Event occurs with respect to such elected Currency, such Holder shall
receive payment in the Currency in which payment would have been made in the
absence of such election; and if a Conversion Event occurs with respect to the
Currency in which payment would have been made in the absence of such election,
such Holder shall receive payment in Dollars as provided in paragraph (d) of
this Section 312.

            (f) The "Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency" shall be
determined by the Exchange Rate Agent and shall be obtained for each subsequent
payment date by converting the specified Foreign Currency into Dollars at the
Market Exchange Rate on the Conversion Date.

            (g) The "Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit" shall be determined
by the Exchange Rate Agent and subject to the provisions of paragraph (h) below
shall be the sum of each amount obtained by converting the Specified Amount of
each Component Currency into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate for such
Component Currency on the Valuation Date with respect to each payment.

            (h) For purposes of this Section 312, the following terms shall have
the following meanings:

            A "Component Currency" shall mean any Currency which, on the
Conversion Date, was a component currency of the relevant currency unit,
including, but not limited to, the euro.

            A "Specified Amount" of a Component Currency shall mean the number
of units of such Component Currency or fractions thereof which were represented
in the relevant currency unit, including, but not limited to, the euro, on the
Conversion Date. If after the Conversion Date the official unit of any Component
Currency is altered by way of combination or subdivision, the Specified Amount
of such Component Currency shall be divided or multiplied in the same
proportion. If after the Conversion Date two or more Component Currencies are
consolidated into a single currency, the respective Specified Amounts of such
Component Currencies shall be replaced by an amount in such single Currency
equal to the sum of the respective Specified Amounts of such consolidated
Component Currencies expressed in such single Currency, and such amount shall
thereafter be a Specified Amount and such single Currency shall thereafter be a

                                      -40-
<PAGE>   43
Component Currency. If after the Conversion Date any Component Currency shall be
divided into two or more currencies, the Specified Amount of such Component
Currency shall be replaced by amounts of such two or more currencies, having an
aggregate Dollar Equivalent value at the Market Exchange Rate on the date of
such replacement equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the Specified Amount of such
former Component Currency at the Market Exchange Rate immediately before such
division, and such amounts shall thereafter be Specified Amounts and such
currencies shall thereafter be Component Currencies.

            If, after the Conversion Date of the relevant currency unit,
including, but not limited to, the euro, a Conversion Event (other than any
event referred to above in this definition of "Specified Amount") occurs with
respect to any Component Currency of such currency unit and is continuing on the
applicable Valuation Date, the Specified Amount of such Component Currency
shall, for purposes of calculating the Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit,
be converted into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate in effect on the
Conversion Date of such Component Currency.

            "Election Date" shall mean the Regular Record Date for the
applicable series of Registered Securities or at least 16 days prior to
Maturity, as the case may be, or such other prior date for any series of
Registered Securities as specified pursuant to clause (13) of Section 301 by
which the written election referred to in Section 312(b) may be made.

            All decisions and determinations of the Exchange Rate Agent
regarding the Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency, the Dollar Equivalent
of the Currency Unit, the Market Exchange Rate and changes in the Specified
Amounts as specified above shall be in its sole discretion and shall, in the
absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and irrevocably
binding upon the Company, the Trustee for the appropriate series of Securities
and all Holders of such Securities denominated or payable in the relevant
Currency. The Exchange Rate Agent shall promptly give written notice to the
Company and the Trustee for the appropriate series of Securities of any such
decision or determination.

            In the event that the Company determines in good faith that a
Conversion Event has occurred with respect to a Foreign Currency, the Company
will immediately give written notice thereof to the Trustee of the appropriate
series of Securities and to the Exchange Rate Agent (and such Trustee will
promptly thereafter give notice in the manner provided in Section 106 to the
affected Holders) specifying the Conversion Date. In the event the Company so
determines that a Conversion Event has occurred with respect to the euro or any
other currency unit in which Securities are denominated or payable, the Company
will immediately give written notice thereof to the Trustee of the appropriate
series of Securities and to the Exchange Rate Agent (and such Trustee will
promptly thereafter give notice in the manner provided in Section 106 to the
affected Holders) specifying the Conversion Date and the Specified Amount of
each Component Currency on the Conversion Date. In the event the Company
determines in good faith that any subsequent change in any Component Currency as
set forth in the definition of Specified Amount above has occurred, the Company
will similarly give written notice to

                                      -41-
<PAGE>   44
the Trustee of the appropriate series of Securities and to the Exchange Rate
Agent.

            The Trustee of the appropriate series of Securities shall be fully
justified and protected in conclusively relying and acting upon information
received by it from the Company and the Exchange Rate Agent and shall not
otherwise have any duty or obligation to determine the accuracy or validity of
such information independent of the Company or the Exchange Rate Agent.

            SECTION 313 Appointment and Resignation of Successor Exchange Rate
                        Agent.

            (a) Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, if and so
long as the Securities of any series (i) are denominated in a Foreign Currency
or (ii) may be payable in a Foreign Currency, or so long as it is required under
any other provision of this Indenture, then the Company will maintain with
respect to each such series of Securities, or as so required, at least one
Exchange Rate Agent. The Company will cause the Exchange Rate Agent to make the
necessary foreign exchange determinations at the time and in the manner
specified pursuant to Section 301 for the purpose of determining the applicable
rate of exchange and, if applicable, for the purpose of converting the issued
Foreign Currency into the applicable payment Currency for the payment of
principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, pursuant to Section 312.

            (b) No resignation of the Exchange Rate Agent and no appointment of
a successor Exchange Rate Agent pursuant to this Section shall become effective
until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Exchange Rate Agent as
evidenced by a written instrument delivered to the Company and the Trustee of
the appropriate series of Securities accepting such appointment executed by the
successor Exchange Rate Agent.

            (c) If the Exchange Rate Agent shall resign, be removed or become
incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Exchange
Rate Agent for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series,
the Company, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a
successor Exchange Rate Agent or Exchange Rate Agents with respect to the
Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor
Exchange Rate Agent may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or
more or all of such series and that, unless otherwise specified pursuant to
Section 301, at any time there shall only be one Exchange Rate Agent with
respect to the Securities of any particular series that are originally issued by
the Company on the same date and that are initially denominated and/or payable
in the same Currency).

            SECTION 314 CUSIP Numbers.

            The Company in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers (if
then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall indicate the "CUSIP"
numbers of the Securities 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 redemption and that reliance may be placed only on
the other identification numbers printed on the Securities,

                                      -42-
<PAGE>   45
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.

                           SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

            SECTION 401 Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

            Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, this Indenture

series of Securities specified in such Company Request (except as to any
surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities of such
series expressly provided for herein or pursuant hereto and any right to receive
Additional Amounts, as provided in Section 1005), and the Trustee, upon receipt
of a Company Order, and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper

      and delivered and all coupons, if any, appertaining thereto (other than
      (i) coupons appertaining to Bearer Securities surrendered for exchange for
      Registered Securities and maturing after such exchange, whose surrender is
      not required or has been waived as provided in Section 305, (ii)
      Securities and coupons of such series which have been destroyed, lost or
      stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306,
      (iii) coupons appertaining to Securities called for redemption and
      maturing after the relevant Redemption Date, whose surrender has been
      waived as provided in Section 1106, and (iv) Securities and coupons of
      such series for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in
      trust or segregated and held in trust by the Trustee or Paying Agent
      (which may be the Company) and thereafter repaid to the Company or
      discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been
      delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

                  (B) all Securities of such series and, in the case of (i) or
      (ii) below, any coupons appertaining thereto not theretofore delivered to
      the Trustee for cancellation (A) have become due and payable, or (B) will
      become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or (C) if
      redeemable at the option of the Company, are to be called for redemption
      within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the
      giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the
      expense, of the Company, and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or
      (iii) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the
      Trustee as trust funds in trust for such purpose an amount in the Currency
      in which the Securities of such series are payable, sufficient to pay and
      discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities and such coupons not

                                      -43-
<PAGE>   46
      theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, including the
      principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, to the date of such
      deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or
      to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be;

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

            (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
      Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
      precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge

Amounts, if any, with respect to any rights of Holders to require the Company to
repay such Securities as contemplated by Section 1301 and with respect to any
rights of Holders to convert or exchange such Securities into other Securities,
shall survive. These obligations shall continue to be governed and construed in
accordance with Section 111.

            SECTION 402 Application of Trust Funds.

            Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all
money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held in trust
and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities, the
coupons and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any
Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the
Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and
premium, if any) and interest, if any, for whose payment such money has been
deposited with or received by the Trustee, but such money need not be segregated
from other funds except to the extent required by law.

and as due by the terms of any Security of that series; or

            (4) default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or
agreement of the Company in this Indenture with respect to any Security of that
series (other than a covenant or agreement a default in whose performance or
whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with), and
continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 days after there has
been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to
the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice specifying such
default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice

<PAGE>   48
            If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in
Section 501(5) or 501(6) with respect to the Company) with respect to Securities
of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then and in
every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal
amount and premium if any (or, if any Securities are Original Issue Discount
Securities or Indexed Securities, such portion of the principal as may be
specified in the terms thereof) and accrued interest of all the Securities of
that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the
Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders), and upon any such
declaration such principal or specified portion thereof and interest shall
become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section
501(5) or 501(6) with respect to the Company occurs, the amounts described above
with respect to the Outstanding Securities of all series shall ipso facto become
and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the
part of the Trustee or any Holder. Upon payment of such principal and interest,
all of the Company's obligations under the Securities of such Series and this
Indenture, other than obligations under Section 606, shall terminate.

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

            (1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum
sufficient in cash to pay all principal (and premium, if any), interest and
Additional Amounts which have become due other than by such declaration of
acceleration, interest or any such overdue amounts, and amounts owing to the
Trustee;

            (2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series,
other than the nonpayment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
on Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of
acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 514; and

            (3) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree
of a court of competent jurisdiction.

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

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

            The Company covenants that if:

            (1) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest or
Additional Amounts on any Security of any series and any related coupon when
such interest or Additional Amounts becomes due and payable and such default
continues for a

                                      -46-
<PAGE>   49
period of 30 days, or

            (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium,
if any, on) any Security of any series at its Maturity, then the Company will,
upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders
of Securities of such series and coupons, the whole amount then due and payable
on such Securities and coupons for principal (and premium, if any) and interest,
if any, with interest upon any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and, to
the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any
overdue installments of interest, if any, at the rate or rates borne by or
provided for in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount
as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel.

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

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

            SECTION 504 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

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

            (A) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (or
      in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities,
      such portion of the principal as may be provided for in the terms thereof)
      (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, owing and unpaid in respect of
      the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be
      necessary or advisable in order to have the

                                      -47-
<PAGE>   50
      claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable
      compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its
      agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial
      proceeding, and

            (B) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
      deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any
      custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator (or other
      similar official) in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by
      each Holder of Securities of such series and coupons to make such payments
      to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the
      making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any
      amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
      and advances of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee, their agents and
      counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee
      under Section 606.

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

            SECTION 505 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of
                        Securities or Coupons.

            All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or any of the
Securities or coupons may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Securities or coupons or the production thereof in any
proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee
shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any
recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities and
coupons in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

            SECTION 506 Application of Money Collected.

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

            FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee and any
predecessor Trustee under Section 606;

                                      -48-
<PAGE>   51
            SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the
Securities and coupons for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any,
in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected,
ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the aggregate
amounts due and payable on such Securities and coupons for principal (and
premium, if any) and interest, if any, respectively; and

            THIRD: To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company or
any other Person or Persons entitled thereto.

            SECTION 507 Limitation on Suits.

            No Holder of any Security of any series or any related coupon 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:

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

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

            (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 that series; it being
understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right
in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this
Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such
Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other
of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the
manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such
Holders.

            SECTION 508 Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal,
                        Premium and Interest and Additional Amounts, if Any.

            Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of
any Security or coupon shall have the right which is absolute and unconditional
to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to
Sections 305 and 307) interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, on such
Security or payment of such coupon on the respective due dates expressed in such
Security or coupon (or, in the case

                                      -49-
<PAGE>   52
of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement
of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent
of such Holder.

            SECTION 509 Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

            If the Trustee or any Holder of a Security or coupon has instituted
any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such
proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been
determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such
case the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of Securities and coupons 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 Holders shall continue as though no such
proceeding had been instituted.

            SECTION 510 Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

            Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities or coupons in the
last paragraph of Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities or coupons 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
or coupon 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 Holders may be exercised from time to
time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders
of Securities or coupons, as the case may be.

            SECTION 512 Control By Holders of Securities.

            The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the
Securities of such series, provided that

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

            (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the

                                      -50-
<PAGE>   53
Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and

            (3) the Trustee need not take any action, as determined in the good
faith of Trustee, which might involve it in personal liability or be unduly
prejudicial to the Holders of Securities of such series not consenting unless
the Trustee is offered indemnity satisfactory to it. This Section 512 shall be
in lieu of Section 316(a)1(A) of the TIA and such Section 316(a)1(A) is hereby
expressly excluded from this Indenture as permitted by the TIA.

            SECTION 513 Undertaking for Costs.

            All parties to this Indenture agree that in any suit for the
enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against
the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its
discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may
assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses,
against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good
faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant, provided that this
Section 513 shall not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder
pursuant to Section 508 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in
principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities. This section 513 shall be
in lieu of Section 315(e) of the TIA and such Section 315(e) is hereby expressly
excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by TIA.

            SECTION 514 Waiver of Past Defaults.

            Subject to Section 502, the Holders of not less than a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of
the Holders of all the Securities of such series and any related coupons waive
any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences,
except a default

            (1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or
interest, if any, or Additional Amounts on any Security of such series or any
related coupons, 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 affected. 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 Event of Default or impair
any right consequent thereon.

            SECTION 515 Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws.

            The Company 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 or any
usury or other 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 (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all
benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it

                                      -51-
<PAGE>   54
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.

                                  ARTICLE SIX

                                   THE TRUSTEE

            SECTION 601 Notice of Defaults.

            If a Default or Event of Default occurs known to the Trustee, the
Trustee shall give to each Holder of Securities of such series in a manner and
to the extent provided in TIA Section 313(c), notice of the Default within 90
days after it occurs, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived before
giving such notice; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default in
the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any
Security of such series, or in the payment of any sinking fund installment with
respect to the 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 determines that the withholding of such notice is in the
interests of the Holders of the Securities and coupons of such series; and
provided further that in the case of any Default or breach of the character
specified in Section 501(4) with respect to the Securities and coupons of such
series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 60 days after
the occurrence thereof unless otherwise specified in accordance with Section
301. The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a Default unless a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice of such Default.

            SECTION 602 Certain Rights of Trustee.

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

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

            (a) the Trustee need perform only those duties that are
            specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others; and

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

                                      -52-
<PAGE>   55
            investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts
            stated therein.

Section 315(a) is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by
the TIA.

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

            (a)   this paragraph (3) does not limit the effect of paragraph
            (2) of this Section 602;

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

            (c) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it
            takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
            received by it pursuant to Section 512.

Subparagraphs (3)(a), (b) and (c) shall be in lieu of Sections 315(d)(1),
315(d)(2) and 315(d)(3) of the TIA and such Sections 315(d)(1), 315(d)(2) and
315(d)(3) are hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by the
TIA.

            (4) The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in
acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond,
debenture, note, coupon or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine
and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

            (5) Any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall
be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order (other than
delivery of any Security, together with any coupons appertaining thereto, to the
Trustee for authentication and delivery pursuant to Section 303 which shall be
sufficiently evidenced as provided therein) and any resolution of the Board of
Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution.

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

            (7) The Trustee may consult with counsel of its choosing and the
advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete
authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted
by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of
Counsel.

rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of
any of the Holders of Securities of any series or any related coupons pursuant
to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee
security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses
and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or
direction.

            (9) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond,
debenture, note, coupon, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or
document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or
investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee
shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be
entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally
or by agent or attorney and shall incur no liability or additional liability of
any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.

            (10) 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 not be responsible for any misconduct or
negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it
hereunder.

            (11) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered
or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the
discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

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

            (13) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officers'
Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of Officers
authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture,
which Officers' Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an
Officers' Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any
such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

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

            The Trustee shall not be required 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.

            The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the
Trustee's certificate of authentication, and in any coupons shall be taken as
the statements of the Company, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating
Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the
Securities or coupons, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly
authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Securities
and perform its obligations hereunder and that the statements made by it in a
Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1 supplied to the Company are true and
accurate, subject to the qualifications set forth therein. Neither the Trustee

the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

            The Trustee, any Paying Agent, Security Registrar, Authenticating
Agent or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other
capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and coupons and, subject
to TIA Sections 310(b) and 311(a) and (b), may otherwise deal with the Company
with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent,
Security Registrar, Authenticating Agent or such other agent.

            SECTION 606 Compensation and Reimbursement.

            The Company agrees:

            (1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time such reasonable
      compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder as shall be agreed
      upon in writing from time to time (which compensation shall not be limited
      (to the extent permitted by law) 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 each
      of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee upon its request for all

            (3) to indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee and
      their agents for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, damage,
      claims, liability or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and
      taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the
      income of the Trustee)) incurred without negligence or bad faith on its
      own part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
      administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the reasonable
      costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted
      by the Company or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in
      connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
      hereunder.

            The obligations of the Company under this Section to compensate the
Trustee, to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and
advances and to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee shall constitute
additional, indebtedness, hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture.

            As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company
under this Section, the Trustee shall have a claim prior to the Securities upon
all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds
held in trust for the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest,
if any, on particular Securities or any coupons.

            When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event
of Default specified in Section 501(5) or (6) occurs, the expenses and
compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

            The provisions of this Section 606 shall survive the resignation and
removal of the Trustee and the termination of this Indenture.

            SECTION 607 Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

            There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be
eligible to act as Trustee under TIA Section 310(a)(1) and shall have a combined
capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such corporation publishes
reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of
Federal, State, Territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and
surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at
any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with
the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

            SECTION 608 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

            (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the
applicable requirements of Section 609.

                                      -56-
<PAGE>   59
            (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the
Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the
Company.

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

            (d)   The Company shall remove the Trustee if:

                  (1)   the Trustee fails to comply with Section 607;

                  (2)   the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

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

                  (4)   the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

            (e) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after
the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company
or, with respect to the Securities of any particular series, the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction at the expense of the Company for
the appointment of a successor Trustee.

            (f) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of
acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause with
respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by or pursuant to
a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with
respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any
such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or
more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee
with respect to the Securities of any particular series). If, within one year
after such resignation or removal, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be
appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring
Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance
of such appointment, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities
of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by
the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any
series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders of Securities
and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder of a
Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at
least six 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 Securities of such series.

            (g) If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 607, any
Securityholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal
of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

            (h) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each
removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each
appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series
in the manner provided for notices to the Holders of Securities in Section 106.
Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

            SECTION 609 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

            (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with
respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument
accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the
retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights,
powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the
Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of
its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor
Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and shall
duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and
money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its
claim, if any, provided for in Section 606.

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

                                      -58-
<PAGE>   61
held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that
or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates,
subject nevertheless to the claim, if any, provided for in Section 606.

            (c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company 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 referred
to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be.

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

            SECTION 610 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 or coupons 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 or coupons so
authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself
authenticated such Securities or coupons. In case any Securities or coupons
shall not have been authenticated by such predecessor Trustee, any such
successor Trustee may authenticate and deliver such Securities or coupons, in
either its own name or that of its predecessor Trustee, with the full force and
effect which this Indenture provides for the certificate of authentication of
the Trustee.

            SECTION 611 Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

            At any time when any of the Securities remain Outstanding, the
Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or
more series 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 and the Trustee shall
give written notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities of the
series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent or Agent will serve, in
the manner provided for in Section 106, 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. Any such appointment
shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee, a copy of which instrument shall be promptly furnished to the
Company. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and


                                      -59-
<PAGE>   62
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 reasonably acceptable to the Company and,
except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to Section 301, shall at all times
be a bank or trust company or corporation organized and doing business and in
good standing under the laws of the United States of America or of any State or
the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating
Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and
subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authorities. If such
Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant
to law or the requirements of the aforesaid 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. In case 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 further act
on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

            An Authenticating Agent for any series of Securities may at any time
resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee for such series
and to the Company. The Trustee for any series of Securities may at any time
terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of
termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such
a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee for such series may appoint a successor
Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give
notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities of the series with
respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve in the manner set forth in
Section 106. 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 herein. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be
appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

            The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to
time reasonable compensation including reimbursement of its reasonable expenses
for its services under this Section.

            If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made
pursuant to

                                      -60-
<PAGE>   63
this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in
addition to or in lieu of the Trustee's certificate of authentication, an
alternate certificate of authentication substantially in the following form:

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

            By:  __________________________
                 as Authorized Signatory


            SECTION 612 Conflicting Interests.

            (a) The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of Section 310(b)
of the Trust Indenture Act.

            (b) The indenture dated as of February 6, 2001, for the Company's
Liquid Yield Option (TM) Notes due 2021 between the Company and The Chase
Manhattan Bank and the indenture dated as of May 9, 2001, for the Company's
Liquid Yield Option(TM) Notes due 2021 between the Company and The Chase
Manhattan Bank shall be deemed to be specifically described herein for the
purposes of clause (i) of the first proviso contained in Section 310(b) of the
Trust Indenture Act.

            SECTION 613 Appointment of Co-Trustee.

            (A) For the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any
jurisdiction in which the Company may at the time be located in connection with
the enforcement of any right or the taking of any action on behalf of the
Holders of any Securities issued hereunder, the Trustee shall have the power and
may execute and deliver all instruments necessary to appoint one or more Persons
to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees,
such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee may consider
necessary or desirable. Each co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be
required to meet the terms of eligibility as a trustee under Section 607. The
Trustee shall promptly notify the Holders and the Company of the appointment of
a co-trustee or separate trustee under this Section.

            (B) Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and
conditions:

                  (a) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or
            imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and
            exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or
            co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee
            or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the
            Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any
            law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to
            be performed the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to
            perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties
            and obligations shall be exercised and performed singly by such
            separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the
            Trustee;

                  (b) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by
            reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder;

                  (c) the Trustee may at any time accept the resignation
            of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee;

                  (d) any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee
            shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate
            trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of
            them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee
            shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Article
            Six. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of
            the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property
            specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the
            Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all
            the provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every
            provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting
            the liability of, or affording protection or rights (including the
            rights to compensation, reimbursement and indemnification hereunder)
            to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the
            Trustee; and

                  (e) any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time
            constitute the Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power
            and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful
            act under or in respect of this Indenture on its behalf and in its
            name for the purposes of enforcing any rights or taking any other
            action on behalf of the Holders of any Securities issued hereunder.

            SECTION 614 Trustee's Application for Instructions from the Company.

            Any application by the Trustee for written instructions from the
Company may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action
proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date
on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be
effective. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by, or omission
of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal

                                      -62-

included in such application on or after the date specified in such application
(which date shall not be less than five Business Days after the date any Officer
of the Company actually receives such application, unless any such officer shall
have consented in writing to any earlier date) unless prior to taking any such
action (or the effective date in the case of an omission), the Trustee shall
have received written instructions in response to such application specifying
the action to be taken or omitted.

            SECTION 701 Disclosure of Names and Addresses of Holders.

            The Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee:

            (A) semiannually, not later than 15 days after each Regular Record
      Date for Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, a list in such
      form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of
      the Holders of Registered Securities as of such Regular Record Date, or if
      there is no Regular Record Date for interest for such series of
      Securities, semiannually, upon such dates as are set forth in the Board
      Resolution, Officers' Certificates or indenture supplemental hereto
      authorizing such series, 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 as of a date not more than 15 days prior
      to the time such list is furnished;

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

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

            The rights of the Holders to communicate with other Holders with
respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Securities, and the
corresponding rights and privileges of the Trustee, shall be as provided by the
Trust Indenture Act.

            Every Holder of Securities or coupons, by receiving and holding the

Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent nor any Paying Agent nor any Security
Registrar shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any
information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of Securities in
accordance with TIA Section 312, regardless of the source

            A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission
to Holders, be filed by the Trustee with each stock exchange, if any, upon which
the Securities are listed, with the Commission and with the Company. The Company
will promptly notify the Trustee of the listing of the Securities on any stock
exchange.

            SECTION 703 Reports by Company.

            The Company will:

            (1) if requested by the Trustee, the Company shall deliver to the

      its annual report and of the information, documents and other reports (or
      copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may by
      rules and regulations prescribe) which the Company is required to file
      with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
      The Company shall send to the Trustee all reports required pursuant to the
      provisions of TIA Section 314(a). Delivery of such reports, information
      and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the
      Trustee's receipt of the same shall not constitute constructive notice of
      any information contained therein or determinable from information
      contained therein, including the Company's compliance with any of its
      covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely
      exclusively on Officers' Certificates);

            (2) file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with
      rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such
      additional information, documents and reports with respect to compliance
      by the Company with the conditions and covenants of this Indenture as may
      be required from time to time by such rules and regulations; and

            (3) transmit by mail to the Holders of Securities, within 30 days
      after the filing thereof with the Trustee, in the manner and to the extent
      provided in TIA Section 313(c), such summaries of any information,

            SECTION 801 Company May Consolidate, Etc., Only on Certain Terms.


            The Company shall not consolidate with or merge with or into any
other Person or sell, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its assets
to any Person, unless:

            (1) either the Company shall be the continuing corporation, or the
      corporation (if other than the Company) formed by such consolidation or
      into which the Company is merged or the Person which acquires by sale,
      transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the Company's assets
      shall (i) be organized under the laws of the United States or any state
      thereof and (ii) expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto,
      executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the
      Trustee, all of the obligations of the Company under this Indenture and on
      all the Securities and this Indenture;

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

            (3) the Company and the successor Person have delivered to the
      Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating
      that such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer and such
      supplemental indenture comply with this Article and that all conditions
      precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been
      complied with; and

            (4)   any other covenant provided with respect to Securities of
      that series.

            SECTION 802 Successor Person Substituted.

            Upon any consolidation or merger, or any conveyance or transfer of
the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety in
accordance with Section 801, the successor corporation formed by such
consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the successor Person to
which such conveyance or transfer is

                                      -65-
<PAGE>   68
made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and
power of, the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such
successor had been named as the Company herein; and in the event of any such
conveyance or transfer (except by a lease), the Company shall be discharged from
all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities and
coupons and may be dissolved and liquidated.

            Such successor entity thereupon may cause to be signed, and may
issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company, any or all of the
Securities issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by
the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor
entity, instead of the Company, and subject to all the terms, conditions and
limitations prescribed in this Indenture, the Trustee shall authenticate and
shall deliver any Securities which previously shall have been signed and
delivered by the officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and
any Securities which such successor entity thereafter shall cause to be signed
and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All the Securities of any series
so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this
Indenture as the Securities of such series theretofore or thereafter issued in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Securities had
been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

            In case of any such merger in which the Company is not the surviving
corporation or any such consolidation, sale, lease, assignment, transfer or
conveyance, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be
made in the Securities thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

            SECTION 803 Officers' Certificate and Opinion of Counsel.

            Any consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, assignment, transfer or
lease permitted under Section 801 is also subject to the condition that the
Trustee shall have received an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer,
assignment or lease, and the assumption by any successor Person and any such
supplemental indenture, comply with the provisions of this Article and that all
conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been
complied with.

                             SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

            SECTION 901 Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders.


            Without the consent of any Holders of Securities or coupons, the
Company, when authorized by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, and the Trustee,
at any time and from time to time, may enter into one or more indentures
supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of the
following purposes:

                  (1) to evidence the succession of another Person to the
         Company and


                                      -66-
<PAGE>   69
        the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company
        herein and in the Securities contained; or

                  (2) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or
         in place of certificated Securities; provided, however, that the
         uncertificated Securities are issued in registered form for purposes of
         Section 163(f) of the Code or in a manner such that the uncertificated
         Securities are as described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code; or

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

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

                  (5) to add to or change any of the provisions of this
         Indenture to provide that Bearer Securities may be registrable as to
         principal, to change or eliminate any restrictions on the payment of
         principal of or any premium or interest on Bearer Securities, to permit
         Bearer Securities to be issued in exchange for Registered Securities,
         to permit Bearer Securities to be issued in exchange for Bearer
         Securities of other authorized denominations or to permit or facilitate
         the issuance of Securities in uncertificated form; provided that any
         such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of
         Securities of any series or any related coupons in any material
         respect; or

                  (6) to change or eliminate any of the provisions of this
         Indenture; provided that any such change or elimination shall become
         effective only when there is no Security Outstanding of any series
         created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture which is
         entitled to the benefit of such provision; or

                  (7) to secure the Securities pursuant to the requirements of
         such indenture supplement, if applicable; or

                  (8) to establish the form or terms of Securities of any series
         and any

                                      -67-
<PAGE>   70
         related coupons as permitted by Sections 201 and 301, including the
         provisions and procedures relating to Securities convertible into or
         exchangeable for any securities of any Person (including the Company);
         or

                  (9) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment
         hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one
         or more series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this
         Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the
         administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee; or

                  (10) to cure any ambiguity or defect, to correct or supplement
         any provision herein which may be inconsistent with any other provision
         herein, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or
         questions arising under this Indenture; provided that such action shall
         not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of Securities of any
         series or any related coupons taken as a whole outstanding; or

                  (11) to supplement any of the provisions of this Indenture to
         such extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the
         defeasance and discharge of any series of Securities pursuant to
         Sections 401, 1402 and 1403; provided that any such action shall not
         adversely affect the interests of the Holders of outstanding Securities
         of such series and any related coupons or any other series of
         outstanding Securities; or

                  (12) to add a guarantor or guarantors for any series or all
         series of the Securities; or

                  (13) to comply with the requirements of the Commission in
         order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under
         the Trust Indenture Act.

         SECTION 902 Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders.

         With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in
principal amount of all Outstanding Securities affected by such supplemental
indenture, with each series voting separately, by Act of said Holders delivered
to the Company and the Trustee, the Company, when authorized by or pursuant to a
Board Resolution, and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures
supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in
any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of
modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Securities and any related
coupons under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental
indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security
affected thereby:

                  (1) extend the Stated Maturity of the principal of (or
         premium, if any, on) or any installment of principal of or interest on,
         any Security, subject to the provisions of Section 308; or reduce the
         principal amount thereof or the rate of interest (or change the manner
         of calculation of interest), thereon,

                                      -68-
<PAGE>   71
         or any Additional Amounts with respect thereto, or any premium payable
         upon the redemption thereof, or change any obligation of the Company to
         pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 1005 (except as contemplated
         by Section 801(1) and permitted by Section 901(1)), or reduce the
         portion of the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security or
         Indexed Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of
         acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 502 or the
         amount thereof provable in bankruptcy pursuant to Section 504 or change
         any Place of Payment where, or the Currency in which, any Security or
         any premium or interest or Additional Amount thereon is payable, or
         impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such
         payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of
         redemption or repayment at the option of the Holder, on or after the
         Redemption Date or the Repayment Date, as the case may be), or
         adversely affect any right to convert or exchange any Security as may
         be provided pursuant to Section 301 herein, or

                  (2) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the
         Outstanding Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders is
         required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose
         Holders is required for any waiver with respect to such series (of
         compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain
         defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in this
         Indenture, or reduce the requirements of Section 1504 for quorum or
         voting, or

                  (3) modify any of the provisions of this Section, Section 513
         or Section 1006, except to increase any such percentage or to provide
         that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or
         waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security
         affected thereby, or

                  (4) cause the Securities to be expressly subordinated to other
         indebtedness of the Company. It shall not be necessary for any Act of
         Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any
         proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act
         shall approve the substance thereof.

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

         The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for
the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to consent to any indenture
supplemental hereto. If a record date is fixed, the Holders at the close of
business on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such
Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such supplemental indenture, whether or
not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that unless
such consent shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage
having been obtained prior to the date which is 90 days after

                                      -69-
<PAGE>   72
such record date, any such consent previously given shall automatically and
without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect.

         SECTION 903 Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

         In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modification thereby of
the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive,
in addition to the documents required by Section 102, and shall be fully
protected in relying upon (subject to the provisions of Article Six hereof), an
Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is
authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be
obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the
Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

         SECTION 904 Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

         Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article,
this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental
indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder
of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder
and of any coupon appertaining thereto shall be bound thereby.

         SECTION 905 Conformity with Trust Indenture Act.

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

         SECTION 906 Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures.

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

         SECTION 1001 Payment of Principal, Premium, if any, and Interest.

         The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of each


                                      -70-
<PAGE>   73
series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and
premium, if any) and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Securities
of that series in accordance with the terms of such series of Securities, any
coupons appertaining thereto and this Indenture. Any interest due on Bearer
Securities on or before Maturity, other than Additional Amounts, if any, payable
as provided in Section 1005 in respect of principal of (or premium, if any, on)
such a Security, shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the
several coupons for such interest installments as are evidenced thereby as they
severally mature. Unless otherwise specified with respect to Securities of any
series pursuant to Section 301, at the option of the Company, all payments of
principal may be paid by check to the registered Holder of the Registered
Security or other person entitled thereto against surrender of such Security or
wire transfer to an account in the United States maintained by the Payee.

         SECTION 1002 Maintenance of Office or Agency.

         If Securities of a series are issuable only as Registered Securities,
the Company shall maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities
an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or
surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange, where Securities of that series that are
convertible or exchangeable may be surrendered for conversion or exchange, as
applicable, and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of
the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. If Securities of
a series are issuable as Bearer Securities, the Company will maintain (A) in the
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency where any
Registered Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for
payment, where any Registered Securities of that series may be surrendered for
registration of transfer, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for
exchange, where Securities of that series that are convertible or exchangeable
may be surrendered for conversion or exchange, as applicable, and where notices
and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series
and this Indenture may be served and where Bearer Securities of that series and
related coupons may be presented or surrendered for payment in the circumstances
described in the following paragraph (and not otherwise), (B) subject to any
laws or regulations applicable thereto, in a Place of Payment for that series
which is located outside the United States, an office or agency where Securities
of that series and related coupons may be presented and surrendered for payment;
provided, however, that if the Securities of that series are listed on the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange located outside the United
States and such stock exchange shall so require, the Company will maintain a
Paying Agent for the Securities of that series in Luxembourg or any other
required city located outside the United States, as the case may be, so long as
the Securities of that series are listed on such exchange, and (C) subject to
any laws or regulations applicable thereto, in a Place of Payment for that
series located outside the United States an office or agency where any
Registered Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of
transfer, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for exchange, where
Securities of that series that are convertible or exchangeable may be
surrendered for conversion or exchange, as applicable and where notices and
demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and
this Indenture may be served. The

                                      -71-
<PAGE>   74
Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any
change in the location, of each such office or agency. If at any time the
Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail
to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders,
notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee, except that Bearer Securities of that series and the related coupons
may be presented and surrendered for payment at the offices specified in the
Security, in London, England, and the Company hereby appoints the same as its
agent to receive such respective presentations, surrenders, notices and demands,
and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee its agent to receive all such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

         Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to
Section 301, no payment of principal, premium or interest on Bearer Securities
shall be made at any office or agency of the Company in the United States or by
check mailed to any address in the United States or by transfer to an account
maintained with a bank located in the United States; provided, however, that, if
the Securities of a series are payable in Dollars, payment of principal of (and
premium, if any) and interest, if any, on any Bearer Security shall be made at
the office of the Company's Paying Agent in the Borough of Manhattan, The City
of New York, if (but only if) payment in Dollars of the full amount of such
principal, premium or interest, as the case may be, at all offices or agencies
outside the United States maintained for such purpose by the Company in
accordance with this Indenture, is illegal or effectively precluded by exchange
controls or other similar restrictions.

         The Company may from time to time designate one or more other offices
or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or
surrendered for any or all of such purposes, and may from time to time rescind
such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission
shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office
or agency in accordance with the requirements set forth above for Securities of
any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the
Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location
of any such other office or agency. Unless otherwise specified with respect to
any Securities pursuant to Section 301 with respect to a series of Securities,
the Company hereby designates as a Place of Payment for each series of
Securities the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York, and initially appoints the Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Office as Paying Agent in such city and as its agent to receive all such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

         Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to
Section 301, if and so long as the Securities of any series (i) are denominated
in a currency other than Dollars or (ii) may be payable in a currency other than
Dollars, or so long as it is required under any other provision of the
Indenture, then the Company will maintain with respect to each such series of
Securities, or as so required, at least one Exchange Rate Agent.

         SECTION 1003 Money For Securities Payments to be Held in Trust.


                                      -72-
<PAGE>   75
         If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with
respect to any series of any Securities and any related coupons, it will, on or
before each due date of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if
any, on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for
the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum in the Currency in which the
Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to
Section 301 for the Securities of such series and except, if applicable, as
provided in Sections 312(b), 312(d) and 312(e)) sufficient to pay the principal
of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on Securities of such series 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 so to act.

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

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

         Except as otherwise provided in the Securities of any series, any money
deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in
trust for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if
any, on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after
such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to
the Company upon Company Request or (if then held by the Company) shall be
discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as
an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment of such
principal, premium or interest on any Security, without interest thereon, and
all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust
money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon
cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being
required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to
be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper in each Place of Payment for such
series, or mailed to each Holder of Registered Securities of such series, notice
that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein,
which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any
unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

         If any Securities of a series provide for the payment of Additional
Amounts, the Company will pay to the Holder of a Security of such series or any
coupon appertaining thereto Additional Amounts as may be specified as
contemplated by Section 301. Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in
any context, the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest,
if any, on any Security of any series or payment of any related coupon or the
net proceeds received on the sale or exchange of any Security of any series,
such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional
Amounts provided by the terms of such series established pursuant to Section 301
to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be
payable in respect thereof pursuant to such terms and express mention of the
payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not
be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where
such express mention is not made.

         Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, if the
Securities of a series provide for the payment of Additional Amounts, at least
10 days prior to the first Interest Payment Date with respect to that series of
Securities (or if the Securities of that series will not bear interest prior to
Maturity, the first day on which a payment of principal and any premium is
made), and at least 10 days prior to each date of payment of principal, premium
or interest if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth
in the below-mentioned Officers' Certificate, the Company will furnish the
Trustee and the Company's principal Paying Agent or Paying Agents, if other than
the Trustee, with an Officers' Certificate instructing the Trustee and such
Paying Agent or Paying Agents whether such payment of principal, premium or
interest on the Securities of that series shall be made to Holders of Securities
of that series or any related coupons who are not United States persons without
withholding for or on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental
charge described in the Securities of the series. If any such withholding shall
be required, then such Officers' Certificate shall specify by country the
amount, if any, required to be withheld on such payments to such Holders of
Securities of that series or related coupons and the Company will pay to the
Trustee or such Paying Agent the Additional Amounts required by the terms of
such Securities. In the event that the Trustee or any Paying Agent, as the case
may be, shall not so receive the above-mentioned certificate, then the Trustee
or such Paying Agent shall be entitled (i) to assume that no such withholding or
deduction is required with respect to any payment of principal or interest with
respect to any Securities of a series or related coupons until it shall have
received a certificate advising otherwise and (ii) to make all payments of
principal and interest with respect to the Securities of a series or related
coupons without withholding or deductions until otherwise advised. The Company
covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for, and to hold them
harmless against, any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without
negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in connection with
actions taken or omitted by any of them in reliance on any Officers' Certificate
furnished pursuant to this Section or in reliance on the Company's not
furnishing such an Officers' Certificate.

         SECTION 1005 Statement as to Compliance.

         The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end
of

                                      -74-
<PAGE>   77
each fiscal year of the Company (beginning with the fiscal year ending on
December 31, 2001) an Officers' Certificate, stating whether or not to the best
knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the performance
and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture
(without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided
hereunder) and if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults
and the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge.

         SECTION 1006 Waiver of Certain Covenants.

         As specified pursuant to Section 301(15) for Securities of any series,
the Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any term,
provision or condition set forth in Sections 1004 and 1005 and, as specified
pursuant to Section 301(15) for Securities of any series, in any covenants of
the Company added to Article Ten pursuant to Section 301(14) or Section 301 (15)
in connection with the Securities of a series, if before or after the time for
such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of all
outstanding Securities, by Act of such Holders, waive such compliance in such
instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition,
but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition
except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become
effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in
respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and
effect.

                                 ARTICLE ELEVEN

                            REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

         SECTION 1101 Applicability of Article.

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

         SECTION 1102 Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

         The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced
by or pursuant to a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election
of the Company of less than all of the 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 in writing 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 prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption
provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the
Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate evidencing
compliance with such restriction.

         SECTION 1103 Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed.


                                      -75-
<PAGE>   78
         If less than all the Securities of any series issued on the same day
with the same terms 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 issued on such date with
the same terms not previously called for redemption, by such method as the
Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection
for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for
Securities of that series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal
amount of Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum
authorized denomination for Securities of that series.

         The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Security
Registrar (if other than itself) in writing of the Securities selected for
redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption,
the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

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

         SECTION 1104 Notice of Redemption.

         Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section
106, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date,
unless a shorter period is specified by the terms of such series established
pursuant to Section 301, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, but
failure to give such notice in the manner herein provided to the Holder of any
Security designated for redemption as a whole or in part, or any defect in the
notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for
the redemption of any other such Security or portion thereof.

         Any notice that is mailed to the Holders of Registered Securities in
the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly
given, whether or not the Holder receives the notice.

         All notices of redemption shall state:

            (1) the Redemption Date,

            (2)   the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any, to the
      Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 1106,

            (3) if less than all Outstanding Securities of any series are to be
      redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the
      principal amount) of the particular Security or Securities to be redeemed,

            (4) in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice
      which relates to such Security shall state that on and after the
      Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, the Holder will receive,
      without a charge, a new

                                      -76-
<PAGE>   79
      Security or Securities of authorized denominations for the principal
      amount thereof remaining unredeemed,

            (5) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price and accrued
      interest, if any, to the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section
      1106 will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the portion
      thereof, to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon shall
      cease to accrue on and after said date,

            (6) the Place or Places of Payment where such Securities, together
      in the case of Bearer Securities with all coupons appertaining thereto, if
      any, maturing after the Redemption Date, are to be surrendered for payment
      of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any,

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

            (8) that, unless otherwise specified in such notice, Bearer
      Securities of any series, if any, surrendered for redemption must be
      accompanied by all coupons maturing subsequent to the date fixed for
      redemption or the amount of any such missing coupon or coupons will be
      deducted from the Redemption Price, unless security or indemnity
      satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee for such series and any Paying
      Agent is furnished,

            (9) if Bearer Securities of any series are to be redeemed and any
      Registered Securities of such series are not to be redeemed, and if such
      Bearer Securities may be exchanged for Registered Securities not subject
      to redemption on this Redemption Date pursuant to Section 305 or
      otherwise, the last date, as determined by the Company, on which such
      exchanges may be made,

            (10) the CUSIP number of such Security, if any, and

            (11) any other information the Company wants to present.

         Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed shall be given by the
Company or, at the Company's request, by the Trustee in the name and at the
expense of the Company.

         SECTION 1105 Deposit of Redemption Price.

         Prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time), on the 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, which it may not do in the case of a
sinking fund payment under Article Twelve, segregate and hold in trust as
provided in Section 1003) an amount of money in the Currency in which the
Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to
Section 301 for the Securities of such series and except, if applicable, as
provided in Sections 312(b), 312(d) and 312(e)) sufficient to pay on the
Redemption Date the Redemption Price of, and (unless otherwise specified
pursuant to Section 301) accrued interest on, all the Securities or portions
thereof which

                                      -77-
<PAGE>   80
are to be redeemed on that date.

         SECTION 1106 Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

         Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities of
any series so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and
payable at the Redemption Price therein specified in the Currency in which the
Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to
Section 301 for the Securities of such series and except, if applicable, as
provided in Sections 312(b), 312(d) and 312(e)) (together with accrued interest,
if any, to the Redemption Date), and from and after such date (unless the
Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued
interest, if any) such Securities shall if the same were interest-bearing cease
to bear interest and the coupons for such interest appertaining to any Bearer
Securities so to be redeemed, except to the extent provided below, shall be
void. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said
notice, together with all coupons, if any, appertaining thereto maturing after
the Redemption Date, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the
Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption
Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on Bearer Securities
whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable
only at an office or agency located outside the United States (except as
otherwise provided in Section 1002) and, unless otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 301, only upon presentation and surrender of coupons for
such interest; and provided further that installments of interest on Registered
Securities whose Stated Maturity is prior to (or, if specified pursuant to
Section 301, on) the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such
Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the
close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the
provisions of Section 307.

         If any Bearer Security surrendered for redemption shall not be
accompanied by all appurtenant coupons maturing after the Redemption Date, such
Security may be paid after deducting from the Redemption Price an amount equal
to the face amount of all such missing coupons, or the surrender of such missing
coupon or coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee if there be
furnished to them such security or indemnity as they may require to save each of
them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Security
shall surrender to the Trustee or any Paying Agent any such missing coupon in
respect of which a deduction shall have been made from the Redemption Price,
such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount so deducted; provided,
however, that interest represented by coupons shall be payable only at an office
or agency located outside the United States (except as otherwise provided in
Section 1002) and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301,
only upon presentation and surrender of those coupons.

         If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon
surrender thereof for redemption, the Redemption Price shall, until paid, bear
interest from the Redemption Date at the rate of interest set forth in such
Security or, in the case of an Original Issue Discount Security, at the Yield to
Maturity of such Security.

         SECTION 1107 Securities Redeemed in Part.

         Any Registered Security which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant
to the provisions of this Article or of Article Twelve) shall be surrendered at
a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires,
due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to
the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney
duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge a
new Security or Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination 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.
However, if less than all the Securities of any series with differing issue
dates, interest rates and stated maturities are to be redeemed, the Company in
its sole discretion shall select the particular Securities to be redeemed and
shall notify the Trustee in writing thereof at least 45 days prior to the
relevant redemption date.

                                 ARTICLE TWELVE

                                  SINKING FUNDS

         SECTION 1201 Applicability of Article.

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

         The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the
terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a "mandatory sinking
fund payment", and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by
the terms of such Securities of any series is herein referred to as an "optional
sinking fund payment". If provided for by the terms of any Securities of any
series, the cash amount of any mandatory sinking fund payment may be subject to
reduction as provided in Section 1202. Each sinking fund payment shall be
applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the
terms of Securities of such series.

         SECTION 1202 Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

         Except as otherwise specifically contemplated by Section 301 for
Securities of such series, the Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part
of any mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of a
series, (1) deliver Outstanding Securities to the Trustee of such series (other
than any previously called for redemption) together in the case of any Bearer
Securities of such series with all unmatured coupons appertaining thereto and
(2) apply as a credit Securities of such series which have been redeemed either
at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or
through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to
the terms of such Securities, as provided for by the terms of such Securities;
provided that such Securities so delivered or applied as a credit have not been
previously

                                      -79-
<PAGE>   82
so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by
the Trustee at the applicable Redemption Price specified in such Securities for
redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such
mandatory sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

         SECTION 1203 Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

         Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for
Securities of any series, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund
payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion
thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash in the Currency in
which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified
pursuant to Section 301 for the Securities of such series and except, if
applicable, as provided in Sections 312(b), 312(d) and 312(e)) and the portion
thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities
of that series pursuant to Section 1202, and the optional amount, if any, to be
added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and will also
deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered and credited. If such
Officers' Certificate shall specify an optional amount to be added in cash to
the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, the Company shall thereupon be
obligated to pay the amount therein specified. Not less than 30 days before each
such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be
redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section
1103 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and
at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 1104. Such
notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made
upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1106 and 1107.

                                ARTICLE THIRTEEN

                       REPAYMENT AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS

         SECTION 1301 Applicability of Article.

         Repayment of Securities of any series before their Stated Maturity at
the option of Holders thereof shall be made in accordance with the terms of such
Securities and (except as otherwise specified by the terms of such series
established pursuant to Section 301) in accordance with this Article.

         SECTION 1302 Repayment of Securities.

         Securities of any series subject to repayment in whole or in part at
the option of the Holders thereof will, unless otherwise provided in the terms
of such Securities, be repaid at the Repayment Price thereof, together with
interest, if any, thereon accrued to the Repayment Date specified in or pursuant
to the terms of such Securities. The Company covenants that on or before the
Repayment Date it will 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 in

                                      -80-
<PAGE>   83
the Currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as
otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 for the Securities of such series
and except, if applicable, as provided in Sections 312(b), 312(d) and 312(e))
sufficient to pay the Repayment Price of, and (unless otherwise specified
pursuant to Section 301) accrued interest on, all the Securities or portions
thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid on such date.

         SECTION 1303 Exercise of Option.

         Securities of any series subject to repayment at the option of the
Holders thereof will contain an "Option to Elect Repayment" form on the reverse
of such Securities. To be repaid at the option of the Holder, any Security so
providing for such repayment, with the "Option to Elect Repayment" form on the
reverse of such Security duly completed by the Holder (or by the Holder's
attorney duly authorized in writing), must be received by the Company at the
Place of Payment therefor specified in the terms of such Security (or at such
other place or places of which the Company shall from time to time notify the
Holders of such Securities) not earlier than 45 days nor later than 30 days
prior to the Repayment Date. If less than the entire Repayment Price of such
Security is to be repaid in accordance with the terms of such Security, the
portion of the Repayment Price of such Security to be repaid, in increments of
the minimum denomination for Securities of such series, and the denomination or
denominations of the Security or Securities to be issued to the Holder for the
portion of such Security surrendered that is not to be repaid, must be
specified. Any Security providing for repayment at the option of the Holder
thereof may not be repaid in part if, following such repayment, the unpaid
principal amount of such Security would be less than the minimum authorized
denomination of Securities of the series of which such Security to be repaid is
a part. Except as otherwise may be provided by the terms of any Security
providing for repayment at the option of the Holder thereof, exercise of the
repayment option by the Holder shall be irrevocable unless waived by the
Company.

         SECTION 1304 When Securities Presented for Repayment Become Due and
                      Payable.

         If Securities of any series providing for repayment at the option of
the Holders thereof shall have been surrendered as provided in this Article and
as provided by or pursuant to the terms of such Securities, such Securities or
the portions thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid shall become due and
payable and shall be paid by the Company on the Repayment Date therein
specified, and on and after such Repayment Date (unless the Company shall
default in the payment of such Securities on such Repayment Date) such
Securities shall, if the same were interest-bearing, cease to bear interest and
the coupons for such interest appertaining to any Bearer Securities so to be
repaid, except to the extent provided below, shall be void. Upon surrender of
any such Security for repayment in accordance with such provisions, together
with all coupons, if any, appertaining thereto maturing after the Repayment
Date, the Repayment Price of such Security so to be repaid shall be paid by the
Company, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Repayment Date;
provided, however, that coupons whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the
Repayment Date shall be payable only at an office or

                                      -81-
<PAGE>   84
agency located outside the United States (except as otherwise provided in
Section 1002) and, unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, only upon
presentation and surrender of such coupons; and provided further that
installments of interest on Registered Securities, whose Stated Maturity is
prior to (or, if specified pursuant to Section 301, on) the Repayment Date shall
be payable (but without interest thereon, unless the Company shall default in
the payment thereof) to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more
Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the
relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section
307.

         If any Bearer Security surrendered for repayment shall not be
accompanied by all appurtenant coupons maturing after the Repayment Date, such
Security may be paid after deducting from the amount payable therefor as
provided in Section 1302 an amount equal to the face amount of all such missing
coupons, or the surrender of such missing coupon or coupons may be waived by the
Company and the Trustee if there be furnished to them such security or indemnity
as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If
thereafter the Holder of such Security shall surrender to the Trustee or any
Paying Agent any such missing coupon in respect of which a deduction shall have
been made as provided in the preceding sentence, such Holder shall be entitled
to receive the amount so deducted; provided, however, that interest represented
by coupons shall be payable only at an office or agency located outside the
United States (except as otherwise provided in Section 1002) and, unless
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, only upon presentation and
surrender of those coupons.

         If any Security surrendered for repayment shall not be so repaid upon
surrender thereof, the Repayment Price shall, until paid, bear interest from the
Repayment Date at the rate of interest set forth in such Security or, in the
case of an Original Issue Discount Security, at the Yield to Maturity of such
Security.

         SECTION 1305 Securities Repaid in Part.

         Upon surrender of any Registered Security which is to be repaid in part
only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
to the Holder of such Security, without service charge and at the expense of the
Company, a new Registered Security or Securities of the same series, of any
authorized denomination specified by the Holder, in an aggregate principal
amount equal to and in exchange for the portion of the principal of such
Security so surrendered which is not to be repaid.

                                ARTICLE FOURTEEN

                       DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

         SECTION 1401 Applicability of Article; Company's Option to Effect
                      Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

            If pursuant to Section 301 provision is made for either or both of
(a)

                                      -82-
<PAGE>   85
defeasance of the Securities of or within a series under Section 1402 or (b)
covenant defeasance of the Securities of or within a series under Section 1403,
then the provisions of such Section or Sections, as the case may be, together
with the other provisions of this Article (with such modifications thereto as
may be specified pursuant to Section 301 with respect to any Securities), shall
be applicable to such Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto, and the
Company may at its option by Board Resolution, at any time, with respect to such
Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto, elect to have Section 1402 (if
applicable) or Section 1403 (if applicable) be applied to such Outstanding
Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto upon compliance with the
conditions set forth below in this Article.

         SECTION 1402 Defeasance and Discharge.

         Upon the Company's exercise of the above option applicable to this
Section with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company shall
be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to such
Outstanding Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto on the date the
conditions set forth in Section 1404 are satisfied (hereinafter, "defeasance").
For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have
paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Outstanding
Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto, which shall thereafter be
deemed to be "Outstanding" only for the purposes of Section 1405 and the other
Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (A) and (B) of this Section,
and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and any
coupons appertaining thereto and this Indenture insofar as such Securities and
any coupons appertaining thereto are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense
of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except
for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged
hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of such Outstanding Securities and any
coupons appertaining thereto to receive, solely from the trust fund described in
Section 1404 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of
the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Securities
and any coupons appertaining thereto when such payments are due, (B) the
Company's obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 305, 306,
1002 and 1003 and with respect to the payment of Additional Amounts, if any, on
such Securities as contemplated by Section 1004 with respect to the rights, if
any, of the holders of such Securities to require the Company to repay such
Securities as contemplated by Article Thirteen and with respect to the rights,
if any, of holders to convert or exchange such Securities into other Securities,
(C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder
and (D) this Article Fourteen. Subject to compliance with this Article Fourteen,
the Company may exercise its option under this Section notwithstanding the prior
exercise of its option under Section 1403 with respect to such Securities and
any coupons appertaining thereto.

         SECTION 1403 Covenant Defeasance.

         Upon the Company's exercise of the above option applicable to this
Section with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company shall
be released from its obligations under Sections 1004 and 1005 if specified
pursuant to Section 301,

                                      -83-
<PAGE>   86
from its obligations under any other covenant, with respect to such Outstanding
Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto on and after the date the
conditions set forth in Section 1404 are satisfied (hereinafter, "covenant
defeasance"), and such Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto shall
thereafter be deemed to be not "Outstanding" for the purposes of any direction,
waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any
thereof) in connection with any restrictive covenants that may be added pursuant
to Section 301, or such other covenant, but shall continue to be deemed
"Outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant
defeasance means that, with respect to such Outstanding Securities and any
coupons appertaining thereto, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have
no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any
such Section or such other covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason
of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or such other covenant or
by reason of reference in any such Section or such other covenant to any other
provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not
constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 501(4) or 501(7) or
otherwise except as specified in accordance with Section 301, as the case may
be, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such
Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto shall be unaffected thereby.

         SECTION 1404 Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

         The following shall be the conditions to application of Section 1402 or
Section 1403 to any Outstanding Securities of or within a series and any coupons
appertaining thereto:

            (a) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be
      deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements
      of Section 607 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this
      Article Fourteen applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose
      of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for,
      and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities and
      any coupons appertaining thereto, (1) an amount (in such Currency in which
      such Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto are then specified as
      payable at Stated Maturity), or (2) Government Obligations applicable to
      such Securities and coupons appertaining thereto (determined on the basis
      of the Currency in which such Securities and coupons appertaining thereto
      are then specified as payable at Stated Maturity) which through the
      scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in
      accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before
      the due date of any payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and
      interest, if any, on such Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto,
      money in an amount, or (3) a combination thereof in an amount, sufficient,
      in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
      accountants or nationally recognized independent investment banking firm
      expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to
      pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other
      qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, (i) the principal of (and
      premium, if any), including Redemption Price and Repayment Price, and
      interest, if any, on such Outstanding Securities and any

                                      -84-
<PAGE>   87
      coupons appertaining thereto on the Stated Maturity of such principal
      or installment of principal or interest and (ii) any mandatory sinking
      fund payments or analogous payments applicable to such Outstanding
      Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto on the day on which
      such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this
      Indenture and of such Securities and any coupons appertaining thereto.

            (b) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a
      breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or
      any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party
      or by which it is bound.

            (c) No Default or Event of Default with respect to such Securities
      and any coupons appertaining thereto shall have occurred and be continuing
      on the date of such deposit or, insofar as Sections 501(5) and 501(6) are
      concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the
      date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be
      deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period).

            (d) In the case of an election under Section 1402, the Company shall
      have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) the
      Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal
      Revenue Service a ruling, or (ii) since the date of execution of this
      Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax
      law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion
      shall confirm that, the Holders of such Outstanding Securities and any
      coupons appertaining thereto 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.

            (e) In the case of an election under Section 1403, the Company shall
      have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the
      Holders of such Outstanding Securities and any coupons appertaining
      thereto 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.

            (f) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
      Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
      precedent to the defeasance under Section 1402 or the covenant defeasance
      under Section 1403 (as the case may be) have been complied with and an
      Opinion of Counsel to the effect that either (i) as a result of a deposit
      pursuant to subsection (a) above and the related exercise of the Company's
      option under Section 1402 or Section 1403 (as the case may be),
      registration is not required under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
      amended, by the Company, with respect to the trust funds representing such
      deposit or by the trustee for such trust funds or (ii) all necessary
      registrations under said Act have been effected.

<PAGE>   88
            (g) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, such
      defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with any
      additional or substitute terms, conditions or limitations which may be
      imposed on the Company in connection therewith pursuant to Section 301.

         SECTION 1405 Deposited Money and Government Obligations to Be Held in
                      Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

         Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all
money and Government Obligations (or other property as may be provided pursuant
to Section 301) (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or
other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 1405, the
"Trustee") pursuant to Section 1404 in respect of any Outstanding Securities of
any series and any coupons appertaining thereto shall be held in trust and
applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and
any coupons appertaining thereto and this Indenture, to the payment, either
directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own
Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities
and any coupons appertaining thereto of all sums due and to become due thereon
in respect of principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, but such
money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
law.

         Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Security pursuant to
Section 301, if, after a deposit referred to in Section 1404(a) has been made,
(a) the Holder of a Security in respect of which such deposit was made is
entitled to, and does, elect pursuant to Section 312(b) or the terms of such
Security to receive payment in a Currency other than that in which the deposit
pursuant to Section 1404(a) has been made in respect of such Security, or (b) a
Conversion Event occurs as contemplated in Section 312(d) or 312(e) or by the
terms of any Security in respect of which the deposit pursuant to Section
1404(a) has been made, the indebtedness represented by such Security and any
coupons appertaining thereto shall be deemed to have been, and will be, fully
discharged and satisfied through the payment of the principal of (and premium,
if any) and interest, if any, on such Security as the same becomes due out of
the proceeds yielded by converting (from time to time as specified below in the
case of any such election) the amount or other property deposited in respect of
such Security into the Currency in which such Security becomes payable as a
result of such election or Conversion Event based on the applicable Market
Exchange Rate for such Currency in effect on the second Business Day prior to
each payment date, except, with respect to a Conversion Event, for such Currency
in effect (as nearly as feasible) at the time of the Conversion Event.

         The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or
other charge imposed on or assessed against the Government Obligations deposited
pursuant to Section 1404 or the principal and interest received in respect
thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the
account of the Holders of such Outstanding Securities and any coupons
appertaining thereto.

         Anything in this Article Fourteen to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company
Request

                                      -86-
<PAGE>   89
any money or Government Obligations (or other property and any proceeds
therefrom) held by it as provided in Section 1404 which, in the opinion of a
nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a
written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the
amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect a
defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable, in accordance with this
Article.

         SECTION 1406 Reinstatement.

         If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or
Government Obligations in accordance this Article 14 by reason of any legal
proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental
authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the
Company's obligations under this Indenture and the Securities shall be revived
and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 1402, 1403
or 1404, as the case may be, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is
permitted to apply all such money or Government Obligations in accordance with
Section 1405; provided that, if the Company has made any payment of principal of
or interest on the Securities of any series because of the reinstatement of its
obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of
such Securities to receive such payment from the money or Government Obligations
held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

                                 ARTICLE FIFTEEN

         SECTION 1505 Determination of Voting Rights; Conduct and Adjournment of
                      Meetings.

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

         (b) The Company shall, by an instrument in writing appoint a temporary
chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have been called by Holders of
Securities as provided in Section 1502(b), in which case the Holders of
Securities of the series calling the meeting shall in like manner appoint a
temporary chairman. A permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the
meeting shall be elected by vote of the Persons entitled to vote a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the
meeting.

         (c) At any meeting each Holder of a Security of such series or proxy
shall be entitled to one vote for each $1,000 principal amount of the

Security challenged as not Outstanding and ruled by the chairman of the meeting
to be not Outstanding. The

                                      -89-
<PAGE>   92
chairman of the meeting shall have no right to vote, except as a Holder of a
Security of such series or proxy.

         (d) Any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series duly called
pursuant to Section 1502 at which a quorum is present may be adjourned from time
to time by Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting, and the
meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice.

         SECTION 1506 Counting Votes and Recording Action of Meetings.

         The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of Holders of
Securities of any series shall be by written ballots on which shall be
subscribed the signatures of the Holders of Securities of such series or of
their representatives by proxy and the principal amounts and serial numbers of
the Outstanding Securities of such series held or represented by them. The
permanent chairman of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who
shall count all votes cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who
shall make and file with the secretary of the meeting their verified written
reports in duplicate of all votes cast at the meeting. A record, at least in
duplicate, of the proceedings of each meeting of Holders of Securities of any
Series shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting and there shall be
attached to said record the original reports of the inspectors of votes on any
vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more persons having
knowledge of the fact, setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and
showing that said notice was given as provided in Section 1502 and, if
applicable, Section 1504. Each copy shall be signed and verified by the
affidavits of the permanent chairman and secretary of the meeting and one such
copy shall be delivered to the Company and another to the Trustee to be
preserved by the Trustee, the former to have attached thereto the ballots voted
at the meeting. Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence
of the matters therein stated.

            This Indenture 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 Indenture.

                  We further certify that (i) we are not making available
