the Company and the Trustee previously entered into an Indenture, dated as of

the Preferred Securities, the “Trust Securities”), and to
provide the terms and conditions upon which the Securities are to be
authenticated, issued and delivered;

     

    Whereas,
all things necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement of the Company, in

the only difference between each such Series being the difference in certain
dates related to the Trust Securities, including, but not limited to, the

any Affiliate of the Company or such other obligor.  Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, Securities initially issued to the Trust that

to have been executed and/or delivered as of the date or dates required with
respect to the document or instrument for which it is
substituted.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any
Securities issued under the authority of such defective document or instrument
shall nevertheless be the valid obligations of the Company entitled to the
benefits of this Indenture equally and ratably with all other Outstanding

may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by the
certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take
acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument
or writing acknowledged to him or her the execution thereof.  Where
such execution is by a Person acting in other than his or her individual
capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof
of his or her authority.  The fact and date of the execution by any
Person of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person
executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner that the Trustee or
the Company, as the case may be, deems sufficient and in accordance with such
reasonable rules as the Trustee may determine.

Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of
transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of
anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance
thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such
Security.

     

    (e)           Without
limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to take any action hereunder with
regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of
the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents
each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any
part of such principal amount.

     

    (f)           Except
as set forth in paragraph (g) of this Section 1.4, the
Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the
Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to give, make or take any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action
provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of
Securities. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of
Outstanding Securities on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be
entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders
after such record date; provided, that no such action
shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable
Expiration Date (as defined in Section 1.4(h)) by
Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on such
record date.  Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent
the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record

date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be
canceled and of no effect).  Promptly after any record date is set

Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of
Securities in the manner set forth in Section

Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the
Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to join in the giving or making of
(i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration or rescission or
annulment thereof referred to in Section 5.2, (iii)
any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 5.7(b) or
(iv) any

referred to in Section
5.12. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders
of Outstanding Securities on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be
entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or
not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, that no such action
shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable
Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding
Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to
prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a
record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the
record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person
be canceled and of no effect).  Promptly after any record date is set
pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause
notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable
Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of
Securities in the manner set forth in Section
1.6.

     

    (h)           With
respect to any record date set pursuant to paragraph (f) or (g) of this Section 1.4, the
party hereto that sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time
may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided, that no such change
shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to
the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities in the
manner set forth in Section 1.6, on or
prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated
with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.4, the
party hereto that set such record date shall be deemed to have initially
designated the ninetieth (90th) day
after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to
its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the one
hundred eightieth (180th) day
after the applicable record date.

    SECTION
1.6.  Notice to
Holders; Waiver.

     

    Where
this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing
and mailed, first class, postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event
to the address of such Holder as it

    appears
in the Securities Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not
earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such
notice. If, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail
service or for any other reason, it shall be impossible or impracticable to mail
notice of any event to Holders when said notice is required to be given pursuant
to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as
shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving
of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither
the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any
particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to
other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such
notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice,
either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of
such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but
such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action
taken in reliance upon such waiver.

be deemed substituted for the provision at issue a valid, legal and enforceable

    further
promises to pay interest on said principal sum from May 17, 2005, or from the
most recent date on and to which interest has been paid or duly provided for,
quarterly in arrears on [for Series A Securities, March 30, June 30, September

October 30] of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next

whose payment is so delayed for the period from and after such Interest Payment
Date until such next succeeding Business Day), except that, if such Business Day
falls in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the
immediately preceding Business Day, in each case, with the same force and effect
as if made on the Interest Payment Date, at a fixed rate equal to 7.61% per
annum through the Interest Payment Date on [in the case of Series A Securities,
March 30, 2010/in the case of Series B Securities, April 30, 2010] (“Fixed Rate Period”)
and thereafter at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 3.30% per annum, together
with Additional Tax Sums, if any, as provided in Section 10.5 of the
Indenture, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for or made
available for payment; provided, further, that any overdue
principal, premium, if any, or Additional Tax Sums and any overdue installment
of interest shall bear Additional Interest at a fixed rate equal to 7.61%
through the Interest Payment Date on [in the case of Series A Securities, March
30, 2010/in the case of Series B Securities, April 30, 2010] (‘Fixed Rate
Period”) and thereafter at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 3.30% per annum
(to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable),
compounded quarterly, from the dates such amounts are due until they are paid or
made available for payment, and such interest shall be payable on
demand.

     

    During
the Fixed Rate Period, the amount of interest payable shall be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and the amount payable for any
partial period shall be computed on the basis of the number of days elapsed in a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months.  Upon expiration of the Fixed
Rate Period, the amount of interest payable for any Interest Payment Period will
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed
in the relevant interest period. The interest so payable,
and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall, as
provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or
one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on
the Regular Record Date for such interest installment.  Any such
interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be
payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the
Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is
registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of
such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be
given to Holders of Securities not less than ten (10) days prior to such Special
Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent
with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be
listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more
fully provided in the Indenture.

     

    Payment
of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Security shall be made in
such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment
is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.  Payments of
principal, premium, if any, and interest due at the Maturity of this Security
shall be made at the Place of Payment upon surrender of such Securities to the
Paying Agent, and payments of interest shall be made, subject to such surrender
where applicable, by wire transfer at such place and to such account at a
banking institution in the United States as may be designated in writing to the
Paying Agent at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date for payment by
the Person entitled thereto unless proper written transfer

    instructions
have not been received by the relevant record date, in which case such payments
shall be made by check mailed to the address of such Person as such address
shall appear in the Security Register.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
so long as the Holder of this Security is the Property Trustee, the payment of
the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any overdue
installment of interest and Additional Tax Sums, if any) on this Security will
be made at such place and to such account as may be designated by the Property
Trustee.

     

    The
indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, to the extent provided in the
Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in
full of all Senior Debt, and this Security is issued subject to the provisions
of the Indenture with respect thereto.  Each Holder of this Security,
by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions, (b)
authorizes and directs the Trustee on his or her behalf to take such actions as
may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided and
(c) appoints the Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for any and all such
purposes. Each Holder hereof, by his or her acceptance hereof, waives all notice
of the acceptance of the subordination provisions contained herein and in the
Indenture by each holder of Senior Debt, whether now outstanding or hereafter
incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said
provisions.

     

    Unless
the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee by
manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the
Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

     

    [FORM
OF REVERSE OF SECURITY]

     

    This
Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (the
“Securities”) issued
under the Amended and Restated Junior Subordinated Indenture, dated as of
September 26, 2005 (the “Indenture”), between the
Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, as Trustee (in such
capacity, the “Trustee,” which term includes
any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all
indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of
the Company, the Trustee, the holders of Senior Debt, the Holders of the
Securities and the holders of the Preferred Securities, and of the terms upon
which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and
delivered.

     

    All terms
used in this Security that are defined in the Indenture or in the Amended and
Restated Trust Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2005 (as modified, amended or
supplemented from time to time, the “Trust Agreement”), relating
to the Bimini Capital Trust I (the
“Trust”) among the
Company, as Depositor, the Trustees named therein and the Holders from time to
time of the Trust Securities issued pursuant thereto, shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the Indenture or the Trust Agreement, as the case may
be.

     

    The
Company may, on any Interest Payment Date, at its option, upon not less than
thirty (30) days’ nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Holders
of the Securities (unless a shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the
Trustee) on or after [For Series A Securities, March 30, 2010/for Series B
Securities, April 30, 2010] and subject to the terms and conditions of Article XI of the
Indenture, redeem this Security in whole at any time or in part from time to
time at a Redemption Price equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the principal
amount hereof,

     


    
      
        
          
            	
                    5093320
      04310929

                  	
                     

                  	 
      


          

          


        

         


      

      
         


        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    


    together,
in the case of any such redemption, with accrued interest, including any
Additional Interest, through but excluding the date fixed as the Redemption
Date.

     

    In
addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Special Event,
the Company may, at its option, upon not less than thirty (30) days’ nor more
than sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Holders of the Securities (unless a
shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), redeem this
Security, in whole but not in part, subject to the terms and conditions of Article XI of the
Indenture at a Redemption Price equal to one hundred seven and one half percent
(107.5%) of the principal amount hereof, together, in the case of any such
redemption, with accrued interest, including any Additional Interest, through
but excluding the date fixed as the Redemption Date.

     

    In the
event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities
for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder
hereof upon the cancellation hereof.  If less than all the Securities
are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected
not more than sixty (60) days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from
the Outstanding Securities 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 a portion of the principal amount of any
Security.

     

    The
Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Company and
the Trustee at any time to enter into a supplemental indenture or indentures for
the purpose of modifying in any manner the rights and obligations of the Company
and of the Holders of the Securities, with the consent of the Holders of not
less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities. The
Indenture also contains provisions permitting Holders of specified percentages
in principal amount of the Securities, on behalf of the Holders of all
Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.
Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive
and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of
any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is
made upon this Security.

     

    No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the
Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute
and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium, if any, and
interest, including any Additional Interest (to the extent legally enforceable),
on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency,
herein prescribed.

     

    As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
the transfer of this Security is restricted to transfers to “Qualified
Purchasers” (as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended,) and is registrable in the Securities Register, upon surrender of this
Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company
maintained for such purpose, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Securities
Registrar and duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities, of like tenor,
of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be
issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

     


    
      
        
          
            	
                    5093320
      04310929

                  	
                     

                  	 
      


          

          


        

         


      

      
         


        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    


    The
Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum
denominations of $100,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set
forth, Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of
Securities and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

     

    No
service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange,
but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

     

    The
Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

     

    The
Company and, by its acceptance of this Security or a beneficial interest herein,
the Holder of, and any Person that acquires a beneficial interest in, this
Security agree that, for United States federal, state and local tax purposes, it
is intended that this Security constitute indebtedness.

     

    This
Security shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the
laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of laws
provisions (other than Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations
Law).

WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to be duly executed on

    (a)           Pending
the preparation of definitive Securities, the Company may execute, and upon
Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities
that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced,
in any denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in
lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions,

Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive
Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at the office or agency of
the Company designated for that purpose without charge to the Holder. Upon
surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company
shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefor one or more definitive Securities of any authorized denominations

shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as
definitive Securities.

    (b)           Interest
and Additional Interest on any 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, except that interest and any Additional Interest payable on the Stated
Maturity (or any date of principal repayment upon early maturity) of the
principal of a Security or on a Redemption Date shall be paid to the Person to
whom principal is paid. The initial payment of interest on any Security that is
issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest Payment Date shall
be payable as provided in such Security.

     

    (c)           Any
interest on any Security that is due and payable, but is not timely paid or duly
provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall
forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder 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
paragraph (i) or (ii) below:

     

    (i)  The
Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in
whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are
registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of
such Defaulted Interest (a “Special Record Date”), which
shall be fixed in the following manner.  At least thirty (30) days
prior to the date of the proposed payment, the Company shall notify the Trustee
in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each
Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company
shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount
proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of
the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the
benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest. Thereupon the
Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted
Interest, which shall be not more than fifteen (15) days and not less than ten
(10) days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than ten (10)
days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The
Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in
the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed
payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be
mailed, first class, postage prepaid, to each Holder of a Security at the
address of such Holder as it appears in the Securities Register not less than
ten (10) days prior to such Special Record Date.  Notice of the
proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor
having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in
whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are
registered on such Special Record Date; or

     

    (ii)  The
Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner
not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange or automated
quotation system on which the Securities may be listed, traded or quoted
and,

     


    
      
        
          
            	
                    5093320
      04310929

                  	
                     

                  	 
      


          

          


        

         


      

      
         


        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    


    upon such
notice as may be required by such exchange or automated quotation system (or by
the Trustee if the Securities are not listed), if, after notice given by the
Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such
payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

     

    (d)           Payments
of interest on the Securities shall include interest accrued to but excluding
the respective Interest Payment Dates. During the Fixed Rate Period, the amount
of interest payable shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months and the amount payable for any partial period shall be computed on
the basis of the number of days elapsed in a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months.  Upon expiration of the Fixed Rate Period, the amount of
interest payable for any Interest Payment Period will be computed on the basis
of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant interest
period.

     

    (e)           Payment
of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be made
in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of
payment is legal tender for payment of public and private
debts.  Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest due at
the Maturity of such Securities shall be made at the Place of Payment upon
surrender of such Securities to the Paying Agent and payments of interest shall
be made subject to such surrender where applicable, by wire transfer at such
place and to such account at a banking institution in the United States as may
be designated in writing to the Paying Agent at least ten (10) Business Days
prior to the date for payment by the Person entitled thereto unless proper
written transfer instructions have not been received by the relevant record
date, in which case such payments shall be made by check mailed to the address
of such Person as such address shall appear in the Security
Register.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the holder of
this Security is the Property Trustee, the payment of the principal of (and
premium, if any) and interest (including any overdue installment of interest and
Additional Tax Sums, if any) on this Security will be made at such place and to
such account as may be designated by the Property Trustee.

     

    (f)           Subject
to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.1, each
Security delivered under this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or
in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and
unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other Security.

     

    SECTION
3.2.  Denominations.

     

    The
Securities shall be in registered form without coupons and shall be issuable in
minimum denominations of $100,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
thereof.

     

    SECTION
3.3.  Execution,
Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

     

    (a)           At
any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this
Indenture,  the Company may deliver Securities in an aggregate
principal amount (including all then Outstanding Securities) not in excess of
Fifty One Million Five Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($51,550,000) 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. In authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional
responsibilities under this Indenture

     


    
      
        
          
            	
                    5093320
      04310929

                  	
                     

                  	 
      


          

          


        

         


      

      
         


        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    


    in
relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall
be fully protected in relying upon:

     

    (i)  a
copy of any Board Resolution relating thereto; and

     

    (ii)  an
Opinion of Counsel stating that: (1) such Securities, when authenticated and
delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to
any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute, and the
Indenture constitutes, valid and legally binding obligations of the Company,
each enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy,
insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of
general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general
equity principles; (2) the Securities have been duly authorized and executed by
the Company and have been delivered to the Trustee for authentication in
accordance with this Indenture; (3) the Securities are not required to be
registered under the Securities Act; and (4) the Indenture is not required to be
qualified under the Trust Indenture Act.

     

    (b)           The
Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the
Board, its Vice Chairman of the Board, its Chief Executive Officer, its
President or one of its Vice Presidents. The signature of any of these officers
on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.  Securities bearing the
manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper
officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such
individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the
authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at
the date of such Securities.

     

    (c)           No
Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Security a certificate
of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the
Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, and such
certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. 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
3.8, 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.

     

    (d)           Each
Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

     

    SECTION
3.4.  Global
Securities.

     

    (a)           Upon
the election of the Holder after the Original Issue Date, which election need
not be in writing, the Securities owned by such Holder shall be issued in the
form of one or more Global Securities registered in the name of the Depositary
or its nominee. Each Global Security issued under this Indenture shall be
registered in the name of the Depositary designated by the Company for such
Global Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a
nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall
constitute a single Security for all purposes of this Indenture.

     


    
      
        
          
            	
                    5093320
      04310929

                  	
                     

                  	 
      


          

          


        

         


      

      
         


        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    


    (b)           Notwithstanding
any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in
whole or in part for registered Securities, and no transfer of a Global Security
in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the
Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (i) such
Depositary advises the Trustee and the Company in writing that such Depositary
is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as
Depositary with respect to such Global Security, and no qualified successor is
appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days of receipt by the Company of
such notice, (ii) such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered
under the Exchange Act and no successor is appointed by the Company within
ninety (90) days after obtaining knowledge of such event, (iii) the Company
executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order stating that the Company
elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Depositary or (iv) an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  Upon the
occurrence of any event specified in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, the
Trustee shall notify the Depositary and instruct the Depositary to notify all
owners of beneficial interests in such Global Security of the occurrence of such
event and of the availability of Securities to such owners of beneficial
interests requesting the same.  The Trustee may conclusively rely, and
be protected in relying, upon the written identification of the owners of
beneficial interests furnished by the Depositary, and shall not be liable for
any delay resulting from a delay by the Depositary.  Upon the issuance
of such Securities and the registration in the Securities Register of such
Securities in the names of the Holders of the beneficial interests therein, the
Trustees shall recognize such holders of beneficial interests as
Holders.

     

    (c)           If
any Global Security is to be exchanged for other Securities or canceled in part,
or if another Security is to be exchanged in whole or in part for a beneficial
interest in any Global Security, then either (i) such Global Security shall be
so surrendered for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article III or (ii)
the principal amount thereof shall be reduced or increased by an amount equal to
(x) the portion thereof to be so exchanged or canceled, or (y) the principal
amount of such other Security to be so exchanged for a beneficial interest
therein, as the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the
records of the Securities Registrar, whereupon the Trustee, in accordance with
the Applicable Depositary Procedures, shall instruct the Depositary or its
authorized representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records.
Upon any such surrender or adjustment of a Global Security by the Depositary,
accompanied by registration instructions, the Company shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver any Securities issuable in exchange for
such Global Security (or any portion thereof) in accordance with the
instructions of the Depositary. The Trustee shall not be liable for any delay in
delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be fully
protected in relying on, such instructions.

     

    (d)           Every
Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in
exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof shall be
authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security,
unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the
Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

     

    (e)           Securities
distributed to holders of Book-Entry Preferred Securities (as defined in the
applicable Trust Agreement) upon the dissolution of the Trust shall be
distributed in the form of one or more Global Securities registered in the name
of a Depositary or its nominee, and deposited with the Securities Registrar, as
custodian for such Depositary, or with such Depositary, for credit by the
Depositary to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of
the

     


    
      
        
          
            	
                    5093320

    Securities
represented thereby (or such other accounts as they may
direct).  Securities distributed to holders of Preferred Securities
other than Book-Entry Preferred Securities upon the dissolution of the Trust
shall not be issued in the form of a Global Security or any other form intended
to facilitate book-entry trading in beneficial interests in such
Securities.

     

    (f)           The
Depositary or its nominee, as the registered owner of a Global Security, shall
be the Holder of such Global Security for all purposes under this Indenture and
the Securities, and owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall
hold such interests pursuant to the Applicable Depositary Procedures.
Accordingly, any such owner’s beneficial interest in a Global Security shall be
shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected only through,
records maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or its Depositary
Participants.  The Securities Registrar and the Trustee shall be
entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes of this Indenture relating
to a Global Security (including the payment of principal and interest thereon
and the giving of instructions or directions by owners of beneficial interests
therein and the giving of notices) as the sole Holder of the Security and shall
have no obligations to the owners of beneficial interests
therein.  Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Registrar shall have
any liability in respect of any transfers effected by the
Depositary.

     

    (g)           The
rights of owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall be exercised
only through the Depositary and shall be limited to those established by law and
agreements between such owners and the Depositary and/or its Depositary
Participants.

     

    (h)           No

and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the owner of such Global Security

agent of the Company or the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability
for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of
beneficial ownership interests of a Global Security or maintaining, supervising
or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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 a Depositary or
impair, as between a Depositary and such holders of beneficial interests, the
operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the
Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of any Security.

3.5.  Registration,
Transfer and Exchange Generally.

     

    (a)           The
Trustee shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the
“Securities Register”)
in which the registrar and transfer agent with respect to the Securities (the
“Securities
Registrar”), subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,
shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers and exchanges
of Securities. The Trustee shall at all times also be the Securities
Registrar.  The provisions of Article VI shall
apply to the Trustee in its role as Securities Registrar.

     

    (b)           Subject
to compliance with Section 2.2(b), upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at the offices or
agencies of the Company designated for that purpose the Company shall execute,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the

    designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of any authorized
denominations of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

     

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

     

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

     

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

     

    (f)           No
service charge shall be made to a Holder for any 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
transfer or exchange of Securities.

     

    (g)           Neither
the Company nor the Trustee shall be required pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 3.5
(g): (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security
during a period beginning at the opening of business fifteen (15) days before
the day of selection for redemption of Securities pursuant to Article XI and ending
at the close of business on the day of mailing of the notice of redemption or
(ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for
redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any such Security to be
redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed.

     

    (h)           The
Company shall designate an office or offices or agency or agencies where
Securities may be surrendered for registration or transfer or
exchange.  The Company initially designates the Corporate Trust Office
as its office and agency for such purposes.  The Company shall give
prompt written notice to the Trustee and to the Holders of any change in the
location of any such office or agency.

     

    (i)           The
Securities may only be transferred to a “Qualified Purchaser” as such term is
defined in Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment Company Act.

     

    (j)           Neither
the Trustee nor the Securities Registrar shall be responsible for ascertaining
whether any transfer hereunder complies with the registration provisions of or
any exemptions from the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws or the
applicable laws of any other jurisdiction, ERISA, the United States Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Investment Company Act; provided, that
if a certificate is specifically required by the express terms of this Section
3.5 to be delivered to the Trustee or the Securities Registrar by a Holder or
transferee of a Security, the Trustee and the Securities Registrar shall be
under a duty to receive and examine the same to determine whether or not the
certificate substantially conforms on its

the requirements of this Indenture and shall promptly notify the party
delivering the same if such certificate does not comply with such
terms.

     

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

     

    (a)           If
any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee together with such security
or indemnity as may be required by the Trustee to save the Company and the
Trustee harmless, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of like tenor and aggregate
principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding.

     

    (b)           If
there shall be delivered to the Trustee (i) evidence to its satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity
as may be required by it to save each of the Company and the Trustee harmless,
then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security
has been acquired by a bona
fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its written request
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost
or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor and aggregate principal amount
as such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, and bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding.

     

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

     

    (d)           Upon
the issuance of any new Security under this Section 3.6, 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.

     

    (e)           Every
new Security issued pursuant to this Section 3.6 in lieu
of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable
by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally
and proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued
hereunder.

     

    (f)           The
provisions of this Section 3.6 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.

     

    (g)           The
Securities may only be transferred to a “Qualified Purchaser” as such term is
defined in Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment Company Act.

     

    SECTION
3.7.  Persons Deemed
Owners.

     

    The
Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall treat the
Person in whose name any Security is registered as the owner of such Security
for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and any interest on such
Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice
to the contrary.

    SECTION
3.8.  Cancellation.

     

    All
Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer or exchange shall, if
surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee,
and any such Securities and Securities surrendered directly to the Trustee for
any such purpose shall be promptly canceled by it. The Company may at any time
deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated
and delivered hereunder that the Company may have acquired in any manner
whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the
Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any
Securities canceled as provided in this Section 3.8, except
as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities shall be
retained or disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary
practices and the Trustee shall deliver to the Company a certificate of such

Treatment.

     

    Each
Security issued hereunder shall provide that the Company and, by its acceptance
or acquisition of a Security or a beneficial interest therein, the Holder of,
and any Person that acquires a direct or indirect beneficial interest in, such
Security, intend and agree to treat such Security as indebtedness of the Company
for United States Federal, state and local tax purposes and to treat the
Preferred Securities (including but not limited to all payments and proceeds
with respect to the Preferred Securities) as an undivided beneficial ownership
interest in the Securities (and any other Trust property) (and payments and
proceeds therefrom, respectively) for United States Federal, state and local tax
purposes.  The provisions of this Indenture shall be interpreted to
further this intention and agreement of the parties.

     

    SECTION
3.12.  CUSIP
Numbers.

     

    The
Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in
use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption
and other similar or related materials as a convenience to Holders; provided, that any such
notice or other materials 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 or other materials 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.

Fifty Thousand Dollars ($51,550,000).

of such Securities fail to annul such declaration and waive such default, the
holders of not less than a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount of the
Preferred Securities then outstanding shall also have the right to rescind and
annul such declaration and its consequences by written notice to the Property
Trustee, the Company and the Trustee, subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in paragraph (b) of this Section

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 such Securities and collect the moneys
adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by

wherever situated.

     

    (c)           If
an Event of Default with respect to Securities occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the
rights of the Holders of Securities 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.

prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the
Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any
such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as
trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, subject to
Article XII and
after provision for the payment of all the amounts owing the Trustee, any
predecessor Trustee and other Persons under Section 6.6, be for
the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such
judgment has been recovered.

principal amount of the Outstanding Securities;

     

    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 itself of, any provision of
this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders
of Securities, 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
5.8.  Unconditional
Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium, if any, and Interest; Direct Action by
Holders of Preferred Securities.

    registered
holder of the Preferred Securities shall have the right, upon the occurrence of
an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(a) or
Section 5.1(b),
to institute a suit directly against the Company for enforcement of payment to

Trustee, any Holder or any holder of Preferred Securities has instituted any
proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such

determined adversely to the Trustee, such Holder or such holder of Preferred
Securities, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee, such Holders
and such holder of Preferred Securities 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, such
Holder and such holder of Preferred Securities shall continue as though no such
proceeding had been instituted.

     

    SECTION
5.10.  Rights and
Remedies Cumulative.

     

    Except as
otherwise provided in Section 3.6(f), no
right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or the Holders
is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and
remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to
every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law
or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy
hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

     

    SECTION
5.11.  Delay or
Omission Not Waiver.

     

    No delay
or omission of the Trustee, any Holder of any Securities or any holder of any
Preferred Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of
Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such
Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.  Every right and remedy
given by this Article
V or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders and the right and remedy
given to the holders of Preferred Securities by Section 5.8 may be
exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the
Trustee, the Holders or the holders of Preferred Securities, as the case may
be.

     

    SECTION
5.12.  Control by
Holders.

     

    The
Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities (or, as the case may be, the holders of a majority in
aggregate Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities)  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; provided,
that:

     

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

     

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

     


    
      
        
          
            	
                    5093320

    (c)           subject
to the provisions of Section 6.2, the
Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow such direction if a
Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee shall, in good faith, reasonably
determine that the proceeding so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the
Holders not joining in any such direction or would involve the Trustee in
personal liability.

     

    SECTION
5.13.  Waiver of
Past Defaults.

     

    (a)           The
Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities or the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate
Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities may waive any past Event of
Default hereunder and its consequences except an Event of Default:

     

    (i)  in
the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest (including any
Additional Interest) on any Outstanding Security (unless such Event of Default
has been cured and the Company has paid to or deposited with the Trustee a sum
sufficient to pay all installments of interest (including any Additional
Interest) due and past due and all principal of and any premium on all
Securities due otherwise than by acceleration), or

     

    (ii)  in
respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under Article IX cannot be
modified or amended without the consent of each Holder of any Outstanding
Security.

     

    (b)           Any
such waiver shall be deemed to be on behalf of the Holders of all the
Outstanding Securities or, in the case of a waiver by holders of Preferred
Securities issued by such Trust, by all holders of Preferred
Securities.

     

    (c)           Upon
any such waiver, such Event of 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
Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

     

    SECTION
5.14.  Undertaking
for Costs.

     

    All
parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his or her
acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its
discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under
this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or
omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its
discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the
merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but
the provisions of this Section 5.14 shall
not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any
Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than ten percent
(10%) in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, or to any
suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the
principal of or any premium on the Security after the Stated Maturity or any
interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security after it is due and
payable.

    SECTION
5.15.  Waiver of
Usury, Stay or Extension Laws.

     

    The
Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at
any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the
benefit or advantage of, any usury, 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.

    The
Trustee

     

    SECTION
6.1.  Corporate
Trustee Required.

     

    There
shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder with respect to the
Securities.  The Trustee shall be a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof, authorized
to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at
least $50,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state
authority and having an office within the United States. If such corporation
publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of such supervising or examining authority, then, for the purposes
of this Section
6.1, 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 6.1, it shall
resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in
this Article
VI.

     

    SECTION
6.2.  Certain Duties
and Responsibilities.

     

    Except
during the continuance of an Event of Default:

     

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

     

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

     

    (b)           If
an Event of Default known to the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the
Trustee shall, prior to the receipt of directions, if any, from the Holders of
at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
(or, if applicable, from the holders of at least a majority in aggregate
Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities), exercise such of the

     


    
      
        
          
            	
                    5093320
      04310929

                  	
                     

                  	 
      


          

          


        

         


      

      
         


        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    


    rights
and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and
skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

     

    (c)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to
expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its
rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that
repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is
not reasonably assured to it. Whether or not therein expressly so provided,
every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the
liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the
provisions of this Section
6.2.  To the extent that, at law or in equity, the Trustee has
duties and liabilities relating to the Holders, the Trustee shall not be liable
to any Holder or any holder of Preferred Securities for the Trustee’s good faith
reliance on the provisions of this Indenture.  The provisions of this
Indenture, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the
Trustee otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Company and
the Holders and the holders of Preferred Securities to replace such other duties
and liabilities of the Trustee.

     

    (d)           No
provisions of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from
liability with respect to matters that are within the authority of the Trustee
under this Indenture for its own negligent action, negligent failure to act or
willful misconduct, except that:

     

    (i)  the
Trustee shall not be liable for any error or judgment made in good faith by an
authorized officer of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee
was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

     

    (ii)  the
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be
taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of at
least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
(or, as the case may be, the holders of a majority in aggregate Liquidation
Amount of Preferred Securities) relating to the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee under this
Indenture; and

     

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

     

    (e)           If
at any time the Trustee hereunder is not the same Person as the Property Trustee
under the Trust Agreement:

     

    (i)  whenever
a reference is made herein to the dissolution, termination or liquidation of the
Trust, the Trustee shall be entitled to assume that no such dissolution,
termination, or liquidation has occurred so long as the Securities are or
continue to be registered in the name of such Property Trustee, and the Trustee
shall be charged with notice or knowledge of such dissolution, termination or
liquidation only upon written notice thereof given to the Trustee by the
Depositor under the Trust Agreement; and

     


    
      
        
          
            	
                    5093320

    (ii)  the
Trustee shall not be charged with notice or knowledge that any Person is a
holder of Preferred Securities or Common Securities issued by the Trust or
whether any group of holders of Preferred Securities constitutes any specified
percentage of all outstanding Preferred Securities for any purpose under this
Indenture, unless and until the Trustee is furnished with a list of holders by
such Property Trustee and the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities then outstanding.  The Trustee may conclusively rely and
shall be protected in relying on such list.

     

    (f)           Notwithstanding
Section 1.10,
the Trustee shall not, and shall not be deemed to, owe any fiduciary duty to the
holders of any of the Trust Securities issued by the Trust and shall not be
liable to any such holder (other than for the willful misconduct or negligence
of the Trustee) if the Trustee in good faith (i) pays over or distributes to a
registered Holder of the Securities or to the Company or to any other Person,
cash, property or securities to which such holders of such Trust Securities
shall be entitled or (ii) takes any action or omits to take any action at the
request of the Holder of such Securities.  Nothing in this paragraph
shall affect the obligation of any other such Person to hold such payment for
the benefit of, and to pay such amount over to, such holders of Preferred
Securities or Common Securities or their representatives.

Trustee, the Trustee shall give the Holders notice of such default unless such
default shall have been cured or waived; provided, that except in the case
of a default in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on
any Securities, the Trustee shall be fully protected in withholding the notice
if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust
committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith

Securities; and provided, further, that in the case of any
default of the character specified in Section 5.1(c), no
such notice to Holders shall be given until at least thirty (30) days after the
occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section 6.3, the term

loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

     

    (e)           In
no event shall the Trustee be liable for any failure or delay in the performance
of its obligations hereunder because of circumstances beyond its control,
including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or
undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, government action, including any

case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee, each successor Trustee
so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the
retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such
successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become

retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor
Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee
hereunder.

     

    (b)           Upon

successor Trustee all rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) of
this Section

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

     

    Any
Person into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or

authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor
by merger, conversion or consolidation or as otherwise provided above in this
Section 6.9 to
such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the
Securities so authenticated, and in case any Securities shall not have been
authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities
either in the name of any predecessor Trustee or in the name of such successor
Trustee, and in all cases the certificate of authentication shall have the full
force which it is provided anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture that
the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

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. Neither the Trustee nor
any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the
Company of the Securities or the proceeds thereof.

     

    SECTION
6.11.  Appointment
of Authenticating Agent.

     

    (a)           The
Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to the
Securities, which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to
authenticate Securities issued upon original issue and upon exchange,
registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.6, and
Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture
and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the
Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the
authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include
authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent.
Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all
times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United
States of America, or of any State or Territory thereof or the District of
Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a
combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to
supervision or examination by Federal or state authority. If such Authenticating
Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually pursuant to law or to the
requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes
of this Section
6.11 the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall
be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent
report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.11, such
Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect
specified in this Section
6.11.

     

    (b)           Any
Person into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party,
or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust
business of an Authenticating Agent shall be the successor Authenticating Agent
hereunder, provided such Person shall be otherwise eligible under this Section 6.11, without
the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the
Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

    (c)           An
Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to
the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency
of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such
Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of
resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 6.11, the
Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent eligible under the
provisions of this Section 6.11, which
shall be acceptable to the Company, and shall give notice of such appointment to
all Holders. 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.

     

    (d)           The
Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable
compensation for its services under this Section 6.11 in such
amounts as the Company and the Authenticating Agent shall agree from time to
time.

     

    (e)           If
an appointment of an Authenticating Agent is made pursuant to this Section 6.11, the
Securities may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate
of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following
form:

     

    This is

Indenture.

    SECTION
10.2.  Money for
Security Payments to be Held in Trust.

     

    (a)           If
the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to the
Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of and any
premium or interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities,
segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a
sum sufficient to pay the principal and any premium or interest (including

act.

     

    (c)           The
Company will cause each Paying Agent for the Securities other than the Trustee
to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent
shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.2, that
such Paying Agent will (i) comply with the provisions of this Indenture and the
Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and (ii) during the
continuance of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the
Securities) in the making of any payment in respect of the Securities, upon the

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
money.

     

    (e)           Any
money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the
Company in trust for the payment of the principal of and any premium or interest
(including any Additional Interest) on any Security and remaining unclaimed for
two years after such principal and any premium or interest has become due and
payable shall (unless otherwise required by mandatory provision of applicable
escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property law) be paid on Company Request to
the Company, or (if then held by the Company) shall (unless otherwise required
by mandatory provision of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property
law) be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall
thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for
payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with
respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee
thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, 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 a newspaper published in
the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general
circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, notice
that

    SECTION
10.3.  Statement as
to Compliance.

     

    The
Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within one hundred and twenty (120) days
after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof,
an Officers’ Certificate covering the preceding calendar year, stating whether
or not to the knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the
performance or 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.  The delivery requirements of this Section 10.3 may be
satisfied by compliance with Section 8.16(a) of the Trust
Agreement.

     

    SECTION
10.4.  Calculation
Agent.

     

    (a)           The
Company hereby agrees that for so long as any of the Securities remain
Outstanding, there will at all times be an agent appointed to calculate LIBOR in
respect of each Interest Payment Date in accordance with the terms of Schedule A (the
“Calculation
Agent”).  The Company has initially appointed the Property
Trustee as Calculation Agent for purposes of determining LIBOR for each Interest
Payment Date.  The Calculation Agent may be removed by the Company at
any time.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Property
Trustee holds any of the Securities, the Calculation Agent shall be the Property
Trustee.  If the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act as
such or is removed by the Company, the Company will promptly appoint as a
replacement Calculation Agent the London office of a leading bank which is
engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the international Eurodollar
market and which does not control or is not controlled by or under common
control with the Company or its Affiliates.  The Calculation Agent may
not resign its duties without a successor having been duly
appointed.

     

    (b)           The
Calculation Agent shall be required to agree that, as soon as possible after
11:00 a.m. (London time) on each LIBOR Determination Date (as defined in Schedule A), but in
no event later than 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the Business Day immediately
following each LIBOR Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will calculate
the interest rate (the Interest Payment shall be rounded to the nearest cent,
with half a cent being rounded upwards) for the related Interest Payment Date,
and will communicate such rate and amount to the Company, the Trustee, each
Paying Agent and the Depositary. The Calculation Agent will also specify to the
Company the quotations upon which the foregoing rates and amounts are based and,
in any event, the Calculation Agent shall notify the Company before 5:00 p.m.
(London time) on each LIBOR Determination Date that
either:  (i) it has determined or is in the process of
determining the foregoing rates and amounts or (ii) it has not determined
and is not in the process of determining the foregoing rates and amounts,
together with its reasons therefor.  The Calculation Agent’s
determination of the foregoing rates and amounts for any Interest Payment Date
will (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding upon all
parties.  For the sole purpose of calculating the interest rate for
the Securities, “Business Day” shall be defined as any day on which dealings in

    SECTION
10.5.  Additional
Tax Sums.

     

    So long
as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if (a) the Trust is the
Holder of all of the Outstanding Securities and (b) a Tax Event described in
clause (i) or (iii) in the definition of Tax Event in Section 1.1 hereof
has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall pay to the Trust (and its
permitted successors or assigns under the related Trust Agreement) for so long
as the Trust (or its permitted successor or assignee) is the registered holder
of the Outstanding Securities, such amounts as may be necessary in order that
the amount of Distributions (including any Additional Interest Amount (as
defined in the Trust Agreement)) then due and payable by the Trust on the
Preferred Securities and Common Securities that at any time remain outstanding
in accordance with the terms thereof shall not be reduced as a result of any
Additional Taxes arising from such Tax Event (additional such amounts payable by
the Company to the Trust, the “Additional Tax Sums”).  Whenever in this
Indenture or the Securities there is a reference in any context to the payment
of principal of or interest on the Securities, such mention shall be deemed to
include mention of the payments of the Additional Tax Sums provided for in this
Section 10.5 to
the extent that, in such context, Additional Tax Sums are, were or would be
payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.5 and
express mention of the payment of Additional Tax Sums (if applicable) in any
provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Tax Sums in
those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.

     

    SECTION
10.6.  Additional
Covenants.

     

    (a)           The
Company covenants and agrees with each Holder of Securities that if an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, it shall not (i) declare or pay
any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a
liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of the Company’s capital stock
(for the avoidance of doubt, the term “capital stock” includes both common stock
and preferred stock of the Company), (ii) vote in favor of or permit or
otherwise allow any of its subsidiaries to declare or pay any dividends or
distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment
with respect to or otherwise retire, any shares of such subsidiaries preferred
stock (for the avoidance of doubt, whether such preferred stock is perpetual or
otherwise), or (iii) make any payment of principal of or any interest or
premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the
Company that rank pari
passu in all respects with or junior in interest to the Securities (other
than (A) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital
stock of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or
other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees,
officers, directors or consultants, in connection with a dividend reinvestment
or stockholder stock purchase plan or in connection with the issuance of capital
stock of the Company (or securities convertible into or exercisable for such
capital stock) as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior
to the Event of Default, (B) as a result of an exchange or conversion of any
class or series of the Company’s capital stock (or any capital stock of a
Subsidiary of the Company) for any class or series of the Company’s capital
stock or of any class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or
series of the Company’s capital stock, (C) the purchase of fractional interests
in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange
provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged,
(D) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any Rights Plan, the
issuance of rights, stock or other property under any Rights Plan or the
redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto or (E) any dividend in the
form of

    stock,
warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock or the stock issuable
upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as
that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to
such stock).

     

    (b)           The
Company also covenants with each Holder of Securities (i) to hold, directly or
indirectly, one hundred percent (100%) of the Common Securities of the Trust,
provided, that any permitted
successor of the Company hereunder may succeed to the Company’s ownership of
such Common Securities, (ii) as holder of such Common Securities, not to
voluntarily dissolve, wind-up or liquidate the Trust other than (A) in
connection with a distribution of the Securities to the holders of the Preferred
Securities in liquidation of the Trust or (B) in connection with certain
mergers, consolidations or amalgamations permitted by the Trust Agreement and
(iii) to use its reasonable commercial efforts, consistent with the terms and
provisions of the Trust Agreement, to cause the Trust to continue to be taxable
as a grantor trust and not as a corporation for United States Federal income tax
purposes.

     

    (c)           The
Company also agrees to use its reasonable efforts to meet the requirements to
qualify, for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2004 and all future fiscal
years, as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended.

     

    SECTION
10.7.  Waiver of
Covenants.

     

    The
Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or
condition contained in Section 10.6 if,
before or after the time for such compliance, the Holders of at least a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall, by Act of
such Holders, and at least a majority of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the
Preferred Securities then outstanding, by consent of such holders, either waive
such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such
covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such
covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such
waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company in respect of any
such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

     

    SECTION
10.8.  Treatment of
Securities.

     

    The
Company will treat the Securities as indebtedness, and the amounts, other than
payments of principal, payable in respect of the principal amount of such
Securities as interest, for all U.S. federal income tax purposes.  All
payments in respect of the Securities will be made free and clear of U.S.
withholding tax to any beneficial owner thereof that has provided an Internal
Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8BEN (or any substitute or successor form)
establishing its U.S. or non-U.S. status for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
or any other applicable form establishing a complete exemption from U.S.
withholding tax.

of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by
the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company and shall be

When Senior Debt in Default; Payment Over of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc.


     

    (a)           In
the event and during the continuation of any default by the Company in the
payment of any principal of or any premium or interest on any Senior Debt

payable, whether at maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by declaration
of acceleration or otherwise, then, upon written notice of such default to the
Company by the holders of such Senior Debt or any trustee therefor, unless and
until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to
exist, no direct or indirect payment (in cash, property, securities, by set-off
or otherwise) shall be made or agreed to be made on account of the principal of
or any premium or interest (including any Additional Interest) on any of the

(including any interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any such
proceedings) shall first be paid in full before any payment or distribution,
whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any Holder of
any of the Securities on account thereof. Any payment or distribution, whether

securities issued in respect thereof under any such plan of reorganization or

the event of any Proceeding, after payment in full of all sums owing with

of any obligations of the Company ranking on a parity with the Securities, shall
be entitled to be paid from the remaining assets of the Company the amounts at

interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities and such other
obligations before any payment or other distribution, whether in cash, property

notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of any character or
any security, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than
securities of the Company or any other entity provided for by a plan of

accordance with the priorities then existing among such holders for application
to the payment of all Senior Debt remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to
pay all such Senior Debt (including any interest thereon accruing after the
commencement of any Proceeding) in full. In the event of the failure of the
Trustee or any Holder to endorse or assign any such payment, distribution or
security, each holder of Senior Debt is hereby irrevocably authorized to endorse
or assign the same.

respect hereto) as may, in the opinion of counsel designated by the holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Senior Debt at the time outstanding, be

the Trustee of any moneys deposited with it hereunder to the payment of or on
account of the principal of and any premium or interest (including any
Additional Interest) on the Securities or the retention of such payment by the

as provided in Section
12.8.

     

    SECTION

    Subject
to the payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on all Senior Debt,

manner satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt, the Holders of the Securities
shall be subrogated to the extent of the payments or distributions made to the
holders of such Senior Debt pursuant to the provisions of this Article XII (equally
and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company that by its
express terms is subordinated to Senior Debt of the Company to substantially the
same extent as the Securities are subordinated to the Senior Debt and is
entitled to like rights of subrogation by reason of any payments or
distributions made to holders of such Senior Debt) to

    the
rights of the holders of such Senior Debt to receive payments and distributions
of cash, property and securities applicable to the Senior Debt until the
principal of and any premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) on
the Securities shall be paid in full. For purposes of such subrogation, no
payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Debt of any cash,

payments made pursuant to the provisions of this Article XII to the
holders of Senior Debt by Holders of the Securities or the Trustee, shall, as
among the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Debt, and the
Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the
Company to or on account of the Senior Debt.

     

    SECTION
12.5.  Provisions
Solely to Define Relative Rights.

     

    The
provisions of this Article XII are and
are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the
Holders of the Securities on the one hand and the holders of Senior Debt on the
other hand. Nothing contained in this Article XII or
elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall (a)
impair, as between the Company and the Holders of the Securities, the
obligations of the Company, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay to the
Holders of the Securities the principal of and any premium and interest
(including any Additional Interest) on the Securities as and when the same shall
become due and payable in accordance with their terms, (b) affect the relative
rights against the Company of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the
Company other than their rights in relation to the holders of Senior Debt or (c)
prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security (or to the extent expressly
provided herein, the holder of any Preferred Security) from exercising all
remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this
Indenture, including filing and voting claims in any Proceeding, subject to the
rights, if any, under this Article XII of the
holders of Senior Debt to receive cash, property and securities otherwise
payable or deliverable to the Trustee or such Holder.

     

    SECTION
12.6.  Trustee to
Effectuate Subordination.

     

    Each
Holder of a Security by his or her acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the
Trustee on his or her behalf to take such action as may be necessary or
appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination provided in this
Article XII and
appoints the Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for any and all such
purposes.

     

    SECTION
12.7.  No Waiver of
Subordination Provisions.

     

    (a)           No
right of any present or future holder of any Senior Debt to enforce
subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or
impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any act
or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by
the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture,
regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or be
otherwise charged with.

     

    (b)           Without
in any way limiting the generality of paragraph (a) of this Section 12.7, the
holders of Senior Debt may, at any time and from to time, without the consent of
or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, without incurring
responsibility to such Holders of

    the
Securities and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this
Article XII or
the obligations hereunder of such Holders of the Securities to the holders of
Senior Debt, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place
or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior
Debt, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior Debt or any
instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Debt is
outstanding, (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property
pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Debt, (iii) release any Person
liable in any manner for the payment of Senior Debt and (iv) exercise or refrain
from exercising any rights against the Company and any other
Person.

     

    SECTION
12.8.  Notice to
Trustee.

     

    (a)           The
Company shall give prompt written notice to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee
of any fact known to the Company that would prohibit the making of any payment
to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Article XII or any
other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with
knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any
payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities, unless and until a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof
from the Company or a holder of Senior Debt or from any trustee, agent or
representative therefor; provided, that if the Trustee
shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section 12.8 at least
two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any monies
may become payable for any purpose (including, the payment of the principal of
and any premium on or interest (including any Additional Interest) on any
Security), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such monies and to apply
the same to the purpose for which they were received and shall not be affected
by any notice to the contrary that may be received by it within two Business
Days prior to such date.

     

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

     

    SECTION
12.9.  Reliance on
Judicial Order or Certificate of Liquidating Agent.

     

    Upon any
payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article XII, the
Trustee and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to conclusively rely
upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which
such Proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy,
receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors,
agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to
the

    Trustee
or to the Holders of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons
entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of the
Senior Debt and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable
thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts
pertinent thereto or to this Article
XII.

     

    SECTION
12.10.  Trustee Not
Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Debt.

     

    The
Trustee, in its capacity as trustee under this Indenture, shall not be deemed to
owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Debt and shall not be liable to
any such holders if it shall in good faith mistakenly pay over or distribute to
Holders of Securities or to the Company or to any other Person cash, property or
securities to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled by virtue of
this Article
XII or otherwise.

     

    SECTION
12.11.  Rights of
Trustee as Holder of Senior Debt; Preservation of Trustee’s
Rights.

     

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

     

    SECTION
12.12.  Article
Applicable to Paying Agents.

     

    If at any
time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the
Company and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this
Article XII
shall in such case (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as
extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all
intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article XII in
addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, that Sections 12.8 and 12.11 shall not apply
to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company if the Company or such Affiliate
acts as Paying Agent.

    DETERMINATION
OF LIBOR

     

    With
respect to the Securities, the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) shall be determined
by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the following provisions (in each
case rounded to the nearest .000001%):

     

    (1)           On
the second LIBOR Business Day (as defined below) prior to an Interest Payment
Date (except with respect to the first Interest Payment Period, such date shall
be May 13, 2005) (each such day, a “LIBOR Determination Date”),
LIBOR for any given security shall for the following Interest Payment Period
equal the rate, as obtained by the Calculation Agent from Bloomberg Financial
Markets Commodities News, for three-month Eurodollar deposits that appears on
Dow Jones Telerate Page 3750 (as defined in the International Swaps and
Derivatives Association, Inc. 2000 Interest Rate and Currency Exchange
Definitions), or such other page as may replace such Page 3750, as of 11:00 a.m.
(London time) on such LIBOR Determination Date.

     

    (2)           If,
on any LIBOR Determination Date, such rate does not appear on Dow Jones Telerate
Page 3750 or such other page as may replace such Page 3750, the Calculation
Agent shall determine the arithmetic mean of the offered quotations of the
Reference Banks (as defined below) to leading banks in the London interbank
market for three-month Eurodollar deposits in an amount determined by the
Calculation Agent by reference to requests for quotations as of approximately
11:00 a.m. (London time) on the LIBOR Determination Date made by the Calculation
Agent to the Reference Banks.  If, on any LIBOR Determination Date, at
least two of the Reference Banks provide such quotations, LIBOR shall equal such
arithmetic mean of such quotations.  If, on any LIBOR Determination
Date, only one or none of the Reference Banks provide such quotations, LIBOR
shall be deemed to be the arithmetic mean of the offered quotations that leading
banks in the City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting on
the relevant LIBOR Determination Date for three-month Eurodollar deposits in an
amount determined by the Calculation Agent by reference to the principal London
offices of leading banks in the London interbank market; provided that, if the
Calculation Agent is required but is unable to determine a rate in accordance
with at least one of the procedures provided above, LIBOR shall be LIBOR as
determined on the previous LIBOR Determination Date.

     

    (3)           As
used herein: “Reference
Banks” means four major banks in the London interbank market selected by
the Calculation Agent; and “LIBOR Business Day” means a
day on which commercial banks are open for business (including dealings in
foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in London.
