Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders
entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,

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

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 eleven months after the
record date.

          (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 therefore 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
     to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office; or

                                       11
<PAGE>

          (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, first-class postage prepaid, 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.  (a) 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, to each such Holder affected by such event, at his address as
it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not
earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any
case where notice to 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.

          (b)  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 in a manner approved by the Trustee shall constitute a
sufficient notification to such Holders for every purpose hereunder.

          (c)  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 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, 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.

          (d)  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
in a manner approved by of the Trustee, which notice 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 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.

          (e)  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.

                                       12
<PAGE>

          (f)  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 deemed the equivalent
of notice given.  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.

          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
(including any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent
and their successors hereunder), other than the parties hereto, 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, 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
established pursuant to Section 301 hereof 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 paid 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 201.  Forms of Securities.  The Registered Securities, if any,
of each series and the Bearer Securities, if any, of each series and the related
coupons shall be in

                                       13
<PAGE>

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.

          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.

          Any form of Security approved by or pursuant to a Board Resolution
must be acceptable as to form to the Trustee, such acceptance to be evidenced by
the Trustee's authentication of Securities in that form or a certificate signed
by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee and delivered to the Company.

          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 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 a
series are issuable in global form, as specified and contemplated by Section
301, then, notwithstanding clause (8) of Section 301 and the provisions of
Section 302, any such Security in global form shall represent the Outstanding
Securities of such series as shall be specified in such Security, 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 by such Security in global
form may from time to time be increased or decreased to reflect exchanges. Any
endorsement of a Security in global form to

                                       14
<PAGE>

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 in such Security in global form.

          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 Person in whose name
such Security is registered in the Security Register, or (ii) in the case of a
permanent global Security in bearer form, Euroclear or Clearstream.

<PAGE>

          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.

          SECTION 302.  Denominations.  The Securities of each series shall be
issuable in such denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by or
pursuant to Section 301. 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 a denomination of
$5,000.

          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 Officer on the Securities and
coupons may be manual or facsimile signatures of the present or any future such
authorized Officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the
Securities.

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

                                       19
<PAGE>

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 Section 315(a) through 315(d)) shall be fully protected in
relying upon:

          (i)   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
          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; and

          (ii)  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.

          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.

          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.

                                       20
<PAGE>

          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 by manual signature of an authorized signatory, and such certificate
upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such
Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder 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 therefore 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

                                       21
<PAGE>

shall, unless otherwise provided therein, be delivered to the London office of a
depositary or common depositary (the "Common Depositary"), for the benefit 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, 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.

                                       22
<PAGE>

          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 Corporate Trust 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.

          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, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more
new Registered Securities of the same series, of any

                                       23
<PAGE>

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
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.

                                       24
<PAGE>

          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
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.

                                       25
<PAGE>

          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 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.

          SECTION 306.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 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 therefore 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 the Uniform Commercial Code),
the Company shall execute and upon its request 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

                                       26
<PAGE>

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 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 an original additional contractual obligation of
the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security and its
coupons, if any, or the destroyed, lost or stolen coupon shall be at any time
enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this
Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that
series 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 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

                                       27
<PAGE>

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 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 therefore 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 therefore having
          been mailed as aforesaid,

                                       28
<PAGE>

          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 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 Date 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 an interest rate (or
a spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if
applicable) that is higher than the interest rate (or the spread or spread
multiplier, if applicable) provided for in the Reset Notice, 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 higher spread or

                                       29
<PAGE>

spread multiplier, 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 higher spread or spread multiplier,
if applicable).

          The Holder of any such Security will 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 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, 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 provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a
higher interest rate for the Extension Period by causing the Trustee  to
transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 106, notice of such higher
interest rate 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.

                                       30
<PAGE>

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

                                       31
<PAGE>

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 disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary
procedures and the Trustee shall deliver a certificate of stating that such
cancelled securities and coupons have been disposed of, unless by a Company
Order the Company directs their return 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 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

                                       32
<PAGE>

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 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

                                       33
<PAGE>

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 ECU.

          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 ECU, 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 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 ECU, 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

                                       34
<PAGE>

          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 ECU 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 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 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

                                       35
<PAGE>

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, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or
omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any
change in "CUSIP" numbers.

                          SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

          SECTION 401.  Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture
shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect with respect to any
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 1004), and the Trustee, upon receipt
of a Company Order, and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper

          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

          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:

                    (i)    have become due and payable, or

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

                    (iii)  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 theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for
          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 of this
     Indenture as to such series have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the
obligations of the Company to the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under
Section 606, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under
Section 611 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee

          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.

     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

Law.

          SECTION 502.  Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If
an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at the time
Outstanding occurs and is continuing, 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 (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) 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 shall become immediately
due and payable.

          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 to pay 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)):

                (A)  all overdue installments of interest, if any, on all
          Outstanding Securities of that series and any related coupons,

                                       39
<PAGE>

                (B)  the principal of (and premium, if any, on) all Outstanding
          Securities of that series which have become due otherwise than by such
          declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates
          borne by or provided for in such Securities,

                (C)  to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,
          interest upon overdue installments of interest at the rate or rates
          borne by or provided for in such Securities, and

                (D)  all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the
          reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
          Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the
          Trustee under Section 606; and

          (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 513.

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 on
     any Security of any series and any related coupon when such interest
     becomes due and payable and such default continues for a 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, and any other
amounts due to the Trustee under Section 606.

          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 Securities of
such series, wherever situated.

<PAGE>

          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:

          (i)   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 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 claims of the Trustee (including any
     claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
     of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the
     Trustee under Section 606) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial
     proceeding, and

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

and any 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

                                       41
<PAGE>

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;

          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;

                                       42
<PAGE>

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. 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, on such Security or payment
of such coupon on the respective due dates expressed in such Security or coupon
(or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired
without the consent of such Holder.

          SECTION 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

                                       43
<PAGE>

          (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
     Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and

          (3)  the Trustee need not take any action which might involve it in
     personal liability or be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders of Securities
     of such series not consenting.

          SECTION 513.  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, 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 514.  Waiver of 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 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
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.

case of a Default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or

     which shall be sufficiently evidenced as provided therein) and any
     resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a

     taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless

     bad faith on its part, rely upon a Board Resolution, an Opinion of Counsel
     or an Officers' Certificate.

          (4)   The Trustee may consult with counsel and the advice of such
     counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization

     Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and
     liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request
     or direction.

          (6)   The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into

     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

          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.

          SECTION 603. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.
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
nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by
the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

          SECTION 604. May Hold Securities. 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, may

other agent.

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

          SECTION 606. Compensation and Reimbursement. The Company agrees:

                                       46
<PAGE>

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

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

          (3)  To indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee for,
     and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense 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 costs and expenses of defending itself against any
     claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of
     its powers or duties hereunder.

          As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company
under this Section, the Trustee for the Securities of any series shall have a
claim prior to the Securities of such series 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 Securities or any
coupons of such series.

          Wherever the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection
with an Event of Default specified in Sections 501(5) or 501(6), the expenses
(including the fees and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the
Trustee's services in connection therewith are intended to constitute expenses
of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

          The provisions of this Section 606 shall survive the resignation or
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.

          (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities
of one or more series by giving 30 days' prior written notice thereof to the
Company.

                                       47
<PAGE>

          (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)  If at any time:

               (1)  the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of TIA
     Section 310(b) after written request therefore by the Company or by any
     Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at
     least six months, or

               (2)  the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 607 and
     shall fail to resign after written request therefore by the Company or by
     any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for
     at least six months, or

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

then, in any such case, (i) the Company by or pursuant to a Board Resolution may
remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee with respect to all
Securities, or (ii) subject to TIA Section 315(e), any Holder of a Security who
has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf
of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and
the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

     (e)  If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have
been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of a notice of
resignation or the delivery of an Act of removal, the Trustee resigning or being
removed may petition any court of competent jurisdiction 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, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be
appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring
Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance
of such appointment, 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

                                       48
<PAGE>

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)  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 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.

                                       49
<PAGE>

          (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 Authenticating 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 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
delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of
authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and
delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate
of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent.
Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and, 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, authorized under such laws to act as
Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than
$1,500,000 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

                                       50
<PAGE>

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 of any Authenticating Agent with respect to one or
more series is made pursuant to 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 referred to in the within-
mentioned Indenture.

          (1)  file with the Trustee, within 15 days after the Company is

     portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by
     rules and regulations prescribe) which the Company may be required to file
     with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
     Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or, if the Company is not required to file

     it will file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules
     and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such of the
     supplementary and periodic information, documents and reports which may be
     required pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in

issue discount (including daily rates and accrual periods), if any, accrued on
Outstanding Securities as of the end of such year.

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
     the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company herein
     and in the Securities contained; or

          (2)  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

          (3)  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

          (4)  to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture to
     provide that Bearer Securities may be registerable 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, as evidenced
                          --------
     by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee, adversely affect the
     interests of the Holders of Securities of any series or any related coupons
     in any material respect; or

          (5)  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

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

<PAGE>

          (7)  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

          (8)  to cure any ambiguity, 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 any such action shall not, as evidenced
                           --------
     by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee, adversely affect the
     interests of the Holders of Securities of any series or any related coupons
     in any material respect; or

          (9)  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, as evidenced by an Opinion
           --------
     of Counsel delivered to the Trustee, adversely affect the interests of the
     Holders of Securities of such series and any related coupons or any other
     series of Securities in any material respect.

          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, 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)  change the Stated Maturity of the principal of (or premium, if
     any, on) or any installment of principal of or interest on, any Security;
     or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon, or
     any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or change any obligation
     of the Company to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 1004 (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 adversely affect
     any right of repayment at the option of the Holder of any Security, or
     change any Place of Payment where, or the Currency in which, any Security
     or any premium or interest 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

                                       55
<PAGE>

          (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.

          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 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 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 any
documents required by Section 102, and shall be fully protected in relying upon,
an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture
is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be
obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the
Trustee's own rights, duties 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.

                                  ARTICLE TEN

                                   COVENANTS

          SECTION 1001. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. The Company
covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of each series of Securities
that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and
interest, 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 1004 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. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, any interest due on
Bearer Securities on or before Maturity shall be payable only upon presentation
and surrender of the several coupons for such interest installments as are
evidenced thereby as they severally mature.

          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, where notices and demands to or upon the
Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture

                                       57
<PAGE>

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
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 Places of Payment

                                       58
<PAGE>

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. 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

                                       59
<PAGE>

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, 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.

          SECTION 1004. Additional Amounts. If the 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 will deliver to
the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year (beginning with
the fiscal year ending on ____________), 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. The Company may omit in any
particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition 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 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. 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

                                       61
<PAGE>

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 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

                                       62
<PAGE>

     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, and

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

          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.  On or prior to 10:00
a.m., New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with
the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own
Paying Agent, 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 (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest
Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities or portions thereof which
are to be redeemed on that date.

          SECTION 1106.  Securities Payable on Redemption Date.  Notice of
redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed
shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price
therein specified 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

                                       63
<PAGE>

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 on or prior to 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 therefore
(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.
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 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 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

                                       65
<PAGE>

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 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 (except if the Repayment Date
shall be an Interest Payment Date) 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 therefore 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

                                       66
<PAGE>

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 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, in the case of Registered Securities, installments of interest, if any,
whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to 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 therefore 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) defeasance of the Securities of a series under Section
1402 or (b) covenant defeasance of the Securities of 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
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, (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and
immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (D) this Article. 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, the Company shall be released from its
obligations under any covenant specified with respect to any Outstanding
Securities of any series of Securities established pursuant to Section 301 and
any coupons appertaining to any such Securities, 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

                                       68
<PAGE>

or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with any
such 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, 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 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
     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) and interest, if any, on such Outstanding Securities and
     any 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

     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.

          (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

                                       70

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 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee
shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request 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. (a) If the Trustee or Paying Agent is
unable to apply any money or Government Obligations in accordance with Section
1405 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 of the applicable series issued hereunder shall be revived and
reinstated as though no deposit has occurred pursuant to this Article Fourteen
until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such
money or Government Obligations in accordance with Section 1405.

          (b) If the Company's obligations under this Indenture and the
Securities of the applicable series issued hereunder shall be revived and
reinstated in accordance with this Section

1406, the Company shall be permitted, at its discretion to withdraw all or a
portion of the deposits made by the Company pursuant to this Article Fourteen.

          (c)  If the Company elects not to withdraw any of the deposits made by
the Company pursuant to this Article Fourteen, if and when the Trustee or Paying
Agent is later permitted to apply all such money or Government Obligations in
accordance with Section 1405, the rights of the Company shall be subrogated to
the rights of the Holders of the Securities of the applicable series to receive
payments from the money or Government Obligations deposited by the Company
pursuant to Article Fourteen and held by the Trustee or Paying Agent; provided
                                                                      --------
that if the Company shall have made any payment of principal or interest on the
Securities of any series because of the revival and reinstatement of its
obligations, which payment is not sourced from any amounts deposited by the
Company pursuant to Article Fourteen (such amount, in the aggregate, being
referred to as the "Company Paid Amount"), the Company shall be permitted, at
                    -------------------
its discretion, to withdraw all or a portion of the deposits made by the Company
pursuant to this Article Fourteen up to the Company Paid Amount.
