            or obligations shall be read into this Capital Securities Guarantee
            against the Capital Securities Guarantee Trustee; and

                  (B)   in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Capital

            Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and
            the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any
            certificates or opinions furnished to the Capital Securities
            Guarantee Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Capital
            Securities Guarantee; but in the case of any such certificates or

            (ii)   the Capital Securities Guarantee Trustee shall not be liable
     for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of

     require the Capital Securities Guarantee Trustee to expend or risk its own
     funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of

     Capital Securities Guarantee Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for
     believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably
     assured to it under the terms of this Capital Securities Guarantee or
     indemnity, reasonably satisfactory to the Capital Securities Guarantee
     Trustee, against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

     that a matter be proved or established before taking, suffering or omitting
     any action hereunder, the Capital Securities Guarantee Trustee (unless
     other evidence is herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of
     bad faith on its part, request and conclusively rely upon an Officers'
     Certificate which, upon receipt of such request, shall be promptly
     delivered by the Guarantor.

     counsel of its selection, and the advice or opinion of such counsel with
     respect to legal matters shall be full and complete authorization and
     protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it
     hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or opinion. Such

     Trustee such security and indemnity, reasonably satisfactory to the Capital
     Securities Guarantee Trustee, against the costs, expenses (including
     attorneys' fees and expenses and the expenses of the Capital Securities
     Guarantee Trustee's agents, nominees or custodians) and liabilities that
     might be incurred by it in complying with such request or direction,
     including such reasonable advances as may be requested by the Capital
     Securities Guarantee Trustee; provided that, nothing contained in this
     Section 3.2(a)(vi) shall be taken to relieve the Capital Securities

     or its agents hereunder shall bind the Holders of the Capital Securities,
     and the signature of the Capital Securities Guarantee Trustee or its agents
     alone shall be sufficient and effective to perform any such action. No
     third party shall be required to inquire as to the authority of the Capital
     Securities Guarantee Trustee to so act or as to its compliance with any of
     the terms and provisions of this Capital Securities Guarantee, both of
     which shall be conclusively evidenced by the Capital Securities Guarantee
     Trustee's or its agent's taking such action.

            (x)    Whenever in the administration of this Capital Securities
     Guarantee the Capital Securities Guarantee Trustee shall deem it desirable
     to receive instructions with respect to enforcing any remedy or right or
     taking any other action hereunder, the Capital

                                       9

deemed to impose any duty or obligation on the Capital Securities Guarantee
Trustee to perform any act or acts or exercise any right, power, duty or
obligation conferred or imposed on it in any jurisdiction in which it shall be
illegal, or in which the Capital Securities Guarantee Trustee shall be
unqualified or incompetent in accordance with applicable law, to perform any
such act or acts or to exercise any such right, power, duty or obligation. No
permissive power or authority available to the Capital Securities Guarantee
Trustee shall be construed to be a duty.

right of set-off or counterclaim that the Issuer may have or assert. The

by reason of the happening from time to time of any of the following:

             (a) the release or waiver, by operation of law or otherwise, of the

covenant, term or condition relating to the Capital Securities to be performed
or observed by the Issuer;

of the Holders to enforce, assert or exercise any right, privilege, power or
remedy conferred on the Holders pursuant to the terms of the Capital Securities,
or any action on the part of the Issuer granting indulgence or extension of any

             (g) the settlement or compromise of any obligation guaranteed
hereby or hereby incurred; or

             (h) any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise
constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor, it being
the intent of this Section 5.3 that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder
shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances.

             There shall be no obligation of the Holders to give notice to, or
obtain consent of, the Guarantor with respect to the happening of any of the
foregoing.

such Capital Securities Guarantee, any Holder of Capital Securities may
institute a legal proceeding directly against the Guarantor to enforce the
Capital Securities Guarantee Trustee's rights under this Capital Securities
Guarantee, without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Issuer, the
Capital Securities Guarantee Trustee or any other person or entity. The

against the Issuer or any other person or entity before proceeding directly
against the Guarantor.

             The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all (if any) rights of the
Holders of Capital Securities against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid
to such Holders by the Guarantor under this Capital Securities Guarantee;
provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not (except to the extent required
by mandatory provisions of law) be entitled to enforce or exercise any right
that it may acquire by way of subrogation or any indemnity, reimbursement or
other agreement, in all cases as a result of payment under this Capital
Securities Guarantee, if, at the time of any such payment, any amounts are due
and unpaid under this Capital Securities Guarantee. If any

                                       13

<PAGE>

amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence,

over such amount to the Holders.

SECTION 5.7  Independent Obligations.
             -----------------------

independent of the obligations of the Issuer with respect to the Capital
Securities, and that the Guarantor shall be liable as principal and as debtor
hereunder to make Guarantee Payments pursuant to the terms of this Capital
Securities Guarantee notwithstanding the occurrence of any event referred to in
subsections (a) through (h), inclusive, of Section 5.3 hereof.

purchases or acquisitions of shares of its common stock in connection with the

shall not make any payment of interest, principal or premium, if any, on or
repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities (including guarantees) issued by
the Guarantor which rank pari passu with or junior to the Notes.

             This Capital Securities Guarantee will constitute an unsecured
obligation of the Guarantor and will rank (i) subordinate and junior in right of
payment to all other liabilities, including contingent liabilities, of the
Guarantor, (ii) pari passu with the most senior preferred or preference stock
now or hereafter issued by the Guarantor and with any guarantee now or hereafter
entered into by the Guarantor in respect of any preferred securities (including
trust preferred securities) or preference stock of any Affiliate of the
Guarantor, and (iii) senior to the Guarantor's common stock.

under this Capital Securities Guarantee.
