                                  ARTICLE ONE
                        THE 2001 CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES

          Section 1.1 Title and Terms. The 2001 Convertible Securities shall be
                      ---------------
known and designated as the "Zero Coupon Convertible Debentures due October 30,
2021" of the Company and shall mature on October 30, 2021. The 2001 Convertible
Securities shall be general unsecured unsubordinated obligations of the Company.
Except as provided in Section 1 of Exhibit A, the 2001 Convertible Securities
shall not bear cash interest. Each 2001 Convertible Security shall initially
represent the Issue Price and shall accrete in value such that the initial yield
to maturity shall be 1.00% per annum through the Stated Maturity. The accretion
rate in effect with respect to each 2001 Convertible Security shall at any time
equal the yield to maturity then in effect for such 2001 Convertible Security.
The yield to maturity (or, if the Company has elected to restate the principal
amount of the 2001 Convertible Securities and pay cash interest on the 2001
Convertible Securities following the occurrence of a Tax Event, the cash
interest rate) on each 2001 Convertible Security shall be reset on October 30,
2007, October 30, 2011 and October 30, 2016 (each, a "Reset Date") to a rate per
annum equal to the Five-Year Treasury Rate minus 2.80% (a "Rate Reset"). On each
Reset Date, the yield to maturity (or the cash interest rate, if the principal
amount of the 2001 Convertible Securities shall have been restated following the
occurrence of a Tax Event) shall be adjusted upwards or downwards in accordance
with this formula and shall be in effect until the next succeeding Reset Date.
In no event, however, shall the yield to maturity (or the cash interest rate, if
the principal amount of the 2001 Convertible Securities shall have been restated
following the occurrence of a Tax Event) be reset below the initial rate per
annum or above 3.00% per annum. The principal amount of each 2001 Convertible
Security at any time shall equal the Accreted Value (or, if the Company has
elected to restate the principal amount of each 2001 Convertible Security and
pay cash interest on such 2001 Convertible Security following the occurrence of
a Tax Event, the Restated Principal Amount) of such 2001 Convertible Security.

          Section 1.2 Form
                      ----

          (a) Global Securities.  The 2001 Convertible Securities shall be
              -----------------
issued initially in the form of one or more Global Securities substantially in
the form of Exhibit A-1, which is a part of this Fourth Supplemental Indenture.
            -----------
Each Global Security shall be deposited with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Office, as custodian for the Depositary (as defined below) and registered in the
name of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") or the nominee thereof (DTC, or any
successor thereto, and any such nominee being hereinafter referred to as the
"Depositary"), duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as
provided in the Indenture.  The aggregate principal amount at maturity of any
Global Security may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments
made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary as hereinafter provided.

          (b) Certificated Securities. 2001 Convertible Securities not issued as
              -----------------------
interests in a Global Security shall be issued in certificated form
substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 attached hereto.
                             -----------

          (c) Exchange of Global Securities for Certificated Securities.
              ---------------------------------------------------------

                                       2
<PAGE>

          (1)  Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Indenture or the 2001
Convertible Securities, a Global Security shall not be exchanged in whole or in
part for a 2001 Convertible Security registered in the name of any Person other
than the Depositary or one or more nominees thereof, provided that a Global
Security may be exchanged for 2001 Convertible Securities registered in the
names of any person designated by the Depositary in the event that (i) the
Depositary has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue
as Depositary for such Global Security or such Depositary has ceased to be a
"clearing agency" registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor Depositary
is not appointed by the Company within 90 days, (ii) the Company decides to
discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfer through DTC (or any
successor depositary);  or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing with respect to the 2001 Convertible Securities.  Any Global Security
exchanged pursuant to clause (i) above shall be so exchanged in whole and not in
part, and any Global Security exchanged pursuant to clause (ii) above may be
exchanged in whole or from time to time in part as directed by the Depositary.

          (2)  2001 Convertible Securities issued in exchange for a Global
Security or any portion thereof shall be issued in definitive, fully registered
form, without interest coupons, shall have an aggregate principal amount at
maturity equal to that of such Global Security or portion thereof to be so
exchanged, shall be registered in such names and be in such authorized
denominations as the Depositary shall designate and shall bear the applicable
legends provided for herein.  Any Global Security to be exchanged in whole shall
be surrendered by the Depositary to the Trustee, as Security Registrar.  With
regard to any Global Security to be exchanged in part, either such Global
Security shall be so surrendered for exchange or, if the Trustee is acting as
custodian for the Depositary or its nominee with respect to such Global
Security, the principal amount at maturity thereof shall be reduced, by an
amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged, by means of an
appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Trustee.  Upon any such
surrender or adjustment, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the 2001
Convertible Security issuable on such exchange to or upon the order of the
Depositary or an authorized representative thereof.

          (3)  Subject to the provisions of clause (5) below, the registered
Holder may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent
Members (as defined below) and persons that may hold interests through Agent
Members, to take any action which a holder is entitled to take under this
Indenture or the 2001 Convertible Securities.

          (4)  In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in
clause (1) above, the Company will promptly make available to the Trustee a
reasonable supply of Certificated Securities in definitive, fully registered
form, without interest coupons.

          (5)  Neither any members of, or participants in, the Depositary
(collectively, the "Agent Members") nor any other Persons on whose behalf Agent
Members may act shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to any
Global Security registered in the name of the Depositary or any nominee thereof,
or under any such Global Security, and the Depositary or such nominee, as the
case may be, may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the
Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner and holder of such Global Security
for all purposes whatsoever.  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

                                       3
<PAGE>

certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or such
nominee, as the case may be, or impair, as between the Depositary, its Agent
Members and any other person on whose behalf an Agent Member may act, the
operation of customary practices of such Persons governing the exercise of the
rights of a holder of any 2001 Convertible Security.

          Section 1.3 Paying Agent and Conversion Agent. The Company shall
                      ---------------------------------
maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an office or agency
where 2001 Convertible Securities may be presented for exchange, purchase,
redemption or payment ("Paying Agent") and an office or agency where 2001
Convertible Securities may be presented for conversion ("Conversion Agent"). The
Company may have one or more additional paying agents and one or more additional
conversion agents. The term Paying Agent includes any additional paying agent
and the term Conversion Agent includes any additional conversion agent.

          The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any
Paying Agent or Conversion Agent (other than the Trustee).  The agreement shall
implement the provisions of the Indenture that relate to such agent.  The
Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent.  If
the Company fails to maintain a Paying Agent or Conversion Agent, the Trustee
shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor
pursuant to Section 607 of the Indenture and any such presentation for exchange,
purchase, redemption, payment or conversion may be made at [ADDRESS OF TRUSTEE].
The Company or any Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them may act as
Paying Agent or Conversion Agent.

          The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Conversion Agent and
Paying Agent in connection with the 2001 Convertible Securities.

          The Company's stock transfer agent (the "Stock Transfer Agent") is
Computer Share Investor Services, LLC.

          Section 1.4 Paying Agent to Hold Money and Securities in Trust. Except
                      --------------------------------------------------
as otherwise provided herein, on or prior to each due date of payments in
respect of any 2001 Convertible Security, the Company shall deposit with the
Paying Agent a sum of money (in immediately available funds if deposited on the
due date) or shall cause its Stock Transfer Agent to prepare and issue shares of
Common Stock ready for delivery in book-entry form through the facilities of
DTC, as applicable, sufficient to make such payments when so becoming due. The
Stock Transfer Agent shall confirm that it has received such direction from the
Company in writing to the Trustee. The Company shall require each Paying Agent
(other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in
trust for the benefit of Holders of the 2001 Convertible Securities or the
Trustee all money and shares of Common Stock held by the Paying Agent for the
making of payments in respect of the 2001 Convertible Securities and shall
notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. At
any time during the continuance of any such default, the Paying Agent shall,
upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all money
and shares of Common Stock so held in trust by the Stock Transfer Agent. If the
Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them acts as Paying Agent, it
shall segregate the money and shares of Common Stock held by it as Paying Agent
and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a
Paying Agent to pay all money and shares of Common Stock held by it to the
Trustee and to account for any funds and

                                       4
<PAGE>

Common Stock disbursed by the Stock Transfer Agent on its behalf. Upon doing so,
the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money or shares of
Common Stock.

                      ---------------------------------------------
Company, at its option, may redeem the 2001 Convertible Securities in accordance

the principal amount of the 2001 Convertible Securities and pay cash interest on
the 2001 Convertible Securities following the occurrence of a Tax Event, at a
redemption price per 2001 Convertible Security equal to the Restated Principal
Amount plus accrued and unpaid cash interest up to but not including the

redeemed and the Redemption Price.

Date from outstanding 2001 Convertible Securities not previously called for
redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal
amount at maturity of 2001 Convertible Securities that have denominations larger
than $1,000.

     2001 Convertible Securities and portions of 2001 Convertible Securities
that the Trustee selects shall be in principal amounts at maturity of $1,000
(subject to upward adjustment in the event of a Rate Reset) or an integral
multiple of $1,000 (or such increased amount). Provisions of this Fourth
Supplemental Indenture that apply to 2001 Convertible Securities called for
redemption also apply to portions of 2001 Convertible Securities called for
redemption. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of the 2001
Convertible Securities or portions of the 2001 Convertible Securities to be
redeemed.

     If any 2001 Convertible Security selected for partial redemption is
converted in part before termination of the conversion right with respect to the
portion of the 2001 Convertible Security so selected, the converted portion of
such 2001 Convertible Security shall be deemed (so far as may be) to be the
portion selected for redemption.  2001 Convertible Securities that have been
converted during a selection of 2001 Convertible Securities to be redeemed may
be treated by the Trustee as outstanding for the purpose of such selection.

          Section 4.3 Notice of Redemption. At least 15 days but not more than
                      --------------------
60 days before a Redemption Date, the Company shall mail a notice of redemption
by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder of 2001 Convertible
Securities to be redeemed.

          Failure to give notice by mailing in the manner herein provided to the
Holder of any 2001 Convertible Securities designated for redemption as a whole
or in part, or any defect in the notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the
validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other 2001 Convertible
Securities or portion thereof.  Any notice that is mailed to the Holder of any
2001 Convertible Securities in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively
presumed to have been duly given, whether or not such Holder receives the
notice.

The notice shall identify the 2001 Convertible Securities to be redeemed and
shall state:

          (1)  the Redemption Date;

          (2)  the Redemption Price per 2001 Convertible Security;

          (3)  the Conversion Rate per 2001 Convertible Security;

          (4)  the name and address of the Paying Agent and Conversion Agent;

                                       9
<PAGE>

          (5)  that 2001 Convertible Securities called for redemption may be
converted into shares of Common Stock at any time before the close of business
on the Business Day immediately prior to the Redemption Date;

          (6)  that Holders who want to convert their 2001 Convertible
Securities into shares of Common Stock must satisfy the requirements set forth
in Section 7 of the 2001 Convertible Securities;

          (7)  that 2001 Convertible Securities called for redemption must be
surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price;

          (8)  if fewer than all of the outstanding 2001 Convertible Securities
are to be redeemed, the certificate numbers, if any, and principal amounts at
maturity of the particular 2001 Convertible Securities to be redeemed;

          (9)  that, unless the Company defaults in making payment of such
Redemption Price, cash interest, if any, on such 2001 Convertible Securities
shall cease to accrue and such 2001 Convertible Securities shall cease to
accrete in value on and after the Redemption Date; and

          (10) the CUSIP number(s) of the 2001 Convertible Securities.

          At the Company's request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Company's name and at the Company's expense, provided that the
Company makes such request at least three Business Days prior to the date by
which such notice of redemption must be given to Holders in accordance with this
Section 4.3.

          Section 4.4 Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption
                      ------------------------------
is given, 2001 Convertible Securities called for redemption become due and
payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price per 2001 Convertible
Securities stated in the notice except for 2001 Convertible Securities that are
converted into shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this
Fourth Supplemental Indenture. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, the Holder(s)
of such 2001 Convertible Securities shall be paid the Redemption Price per 2001
Convertible Security stated in the notice.

          Section 4.5 Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York
                      ---------------------------
City time), on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying
Agent (or if the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them is
the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the
Redemption Price of all 2001 Convertible Securities to be redeemed on that date
other than 2001 Convertible Securities or portions of 2001 Convertible
Securities called for redemption which on or prior to that date have been
delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation or have been converted.
The Paying Agent shall as promptly as practicable return to the Company any
money not required for that purpose because of conversion of 2001 Convertible
Securities pursuant to Article Seven of this Fourth Supplemental Indenture. If
such money is then held by the Company in trust and is not required for such
purpose it shall automatically be discharged from such trust.

          Section 4.6    2001 Convertible Securities Redeemed in Part.  Upon
                         --------------------------------------------
surrender of a 2001 Convertible Security that is redeemed in part, the Company
shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new
2001 Convertible Security in an authorized denomination equal in principal
amount at maturity to the unredeemed portion of the 2001 Convertible Security
surrendered.

          Section 4.7    Purchase of 2001 Convertible Securities by the Company
                         ------------------------------------------------------
at Option of the Holder.
-----------------------

          (a)  General.  2001 Convertible Securities shall be purchased by the
               --------
Company pursuant to Section 6 of the 2001 Convertible Securities at the option
of the Holder on October 30, 2003, October 30, 2006, October 30, 2008, October
30, 2011 and October 30, 2016 (each, a "Purchase Date"), at a purchase price per
2001 Convertible Security equal to the Accreted Value up to but not including
such Purchase Date or, if the Company has elected to restate the principal
amount of the 2001 Convertible Securities and pay cash interest on the 2001
Convertible Securities following the occurrence of a Tax Event, at a purchase
price per 2001 Convertible Security equal to the Restated Principal Amount plus
accrued and unpaid cash interest, if any, up to but not including the Purchase
Date (in either such case, the "Purchase Price").  Purchases of 2001 Convertible
Securities hereunder shall be made, at the option of the Holder thereof, upon:

               (i)  delivery to the Paying Agent by the Holder of a written
     notice of purchase (a "Purchase Notice"), which shall be given so as to be
     received by the Paying Agent no later than the close of business on the
     fifth Business Day prior to such Purchase Date and shall state:

               (A)  the certificate number of the 2001 Convertible Securities
          that the Holder will deliver to be purchased or the appropriate
          Depositary procedures if Certificated 2001 Convertible Securities have
          not been issued,

               (B)  the portion of the aggregate principal amount at maturity
          (or, if the principal amount at maturity of the 2001 Convertible
          Securities has been restated following a Tax Event, the Restated
          Principal Amount) of the 2001 Convertible Securities that the Holder
          will deliver to be purchased, which portion must be in principal
          amounts at maturity of $1,000 (subject to upward adjustment in the
          event of a Rate Reset) or an integral multiple of $1,000 (or such
          increased amount),

               (C)  that such 2001 Convertible Securities shall be purchased by
          the Company as of the Purchase Date pursuant to the terms and
          conditions specified in Section 6 of the 2001 Convertible Securities
          and this Section 4.7 of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, and

               (D)  for the first three Purchase Dates, in the event the Company
          elects, pursuant to Section 4.7(b), to pay the Purchase Price, in
          whole or in part, in shares of Common Stock but such portion of the
          Purchase Price shall ultimately be paid to such Holder entirely in
          cash because any of the conditions to payment of the Purchase Price
          (or a portion thereof) in shares of Common Stock is not satisfied

                                       11
<PAGE>

          prior to the close of business on the relevant Purchase Date, as set
          forth in Section 4.7(d), whether such Holder elects (i) to withdraw
          such Purchase Notice as to some or all of the 2001 Convertible
          Securities to which such Purchase Notice relates (stating the expected
          principal amount at maturity (or, if the principal amount at maturity
          of the 2001 Convertible Securities has been restated following a Tax
          Event, the Restated Principal Amount) and certificate numbers, if the
          2001 Convertible Securities are then Certificated Securities, of the
          2001 Convertible Securities as to which such withdrawal shall relate),
          or (ii) to receive cash in respect of the entire Purchase Price for
          all 2001 Convertible Securities (or portions thereof) to which such
          Purchase Notice relates; and

               (ii) book-entry transfer or delivery of such 2001 Convertible
     Securities to the Paying Agent prior to, on or after the Purchase Date
     (together with all necessary endorsements) at the offices of the Paying
     Agent, such delivery being a condition to receipt by the Holder of the
     Purchase Price therefor; provided, however, that such Purchase Price shall
     be so paid pursuant to this Section 4.7 only if the 2001 Convertible
     Securities so delivered to the Paying Agent shall conform in all respects
     to the description thereof in the related Purchase Notice, as determined by
     the Company.

          If a Holder, in such Holder's Purchase Notice and in any written
notice of withdrawal delivered by such Holder pursuant to the terms of Section
4.9, fails to indicate such Holder's choice with respect to the election set
forth in clause (D) of Section 4.7(a)(i), such Holder shall be deemed to have
elected to receive cash in respect of the entire Purchase Price for all 2001
Convertible Securities subject to such Purchase Notice in the circumstances set
forth in such clause (D).

          The Company shall purchase from the Holder thereof, pursuant to this
Section 4.7, a portion of a 2001 Convertible Security, if the principal amount
at maturity of such portion is $1,000 (subject to upward adjustment in the event
of a Rate Reset) or an integral multiple of $1,000 (or such increased amount).
Provisions of this Fourth Supplemental Indenture that apply to the purchase of
all of a 2001 Convertible Security also apply to the purchase of such portion of
such 2001 Convertible Security.

          Any purchase by the Company contemplated pursuant to the provisions of
this Section 4.7 shall be consummated by the delivery of the consideration to be
received by the Holder promptly following the later of the Purchase Date and the
time of delivery of the 2001 Convertible Security.  Unless the Company defaults
in paying the Purchase Price, cash interest, if any, on the 2001 Convertible
Securities subject to a Purchase Notice shall cease to accrue and the 2001
Convertible Securities shall cease to accrete in value on the Purchase Date.

          Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering
to the Paying Agent the Purchase Notice contemplated by this Section 4.7(a)
shall have the right to withdraw such Purchase Notice at any time prior to the
close of business on the Business Day prior to the Purchase Date by delivery of
a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section
4.9.

                                       12
<PAGE>

          The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by
it of any Purchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal thereof.

          (b)  Company's Right to Elect Manner of Payment of Purchase Price. The
               -------------------------------------------------------------
2001 Convertible Securities to be purchased on any of the first three Purchase
Dates pursuant to Section 4.7(a) may be paid for, in whole or in part, at the
election of the Company, in U.S. legal tender ("cash") or shares of Common
Stock, or in any combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, subject to the
conditions set forth in Sections 4.7(c) and (d). The Company shall designate, in
the Company Notice delivered pursuant to Section 4.7(e), whether the Company
will purchase the 2001 Convertible Securities for cash or shares of Common
Stock, or, if a combination thereof, the percentages of the Purchase Price of
2001 Convertible Securities in respect of which it will pay in cash or shares of
Common Stock; provided that the Company shall pay cash for fractional interests
in shares of Common Stock. For purposes of determining the existence of
potential fractional interests, all 2001 Convertible Securities subject to
purchase by the Company held by a Holder shall be considered together (no matter
how many separate certificates are to be presented). With respect to any payment
the Company elects to make, in whole or in part, in shares of Common Stock, the
Company shall notify its Stock Transfer Agent of its election and the timing for
delivery of the Common Stock. The Company shall irrevocably instruct the Stock
Transfer Agent to deliver to a Holder the appropriate number of shares of Common
Stock in book-entry form through the facilities of DTC, subject to satisfaction
by such Holder of the conditions set forth in Section 4.7(a). The Stock Transfer
Agent shall confirm to the Trustee in writing that it has received such
instruction from the Company. On the Purchase Date, the Company shall
irrevocably instruct the Stock Transfer Agent, subject to satisfaction by such
Holder of the conditions set forth in Section 4.7(a), to deliver the Common
Stock in book-entry form through DTC and the Trustee shall notify DTC that the
aggregate outstanding principal amount at maturity of 2001 Convertible
Securities in the form of Global Securities shall be adjusted downward to
reflect such purchase and the Trustee shall reflect such adjustment on the
Trustee's records for such Global Security. Each Holder whose 2001 Convertible
Securities are purchased pursuant to this Section 4.7 shall receive the same
percentage of cash or shares of Common Stock in payment of the Purchase Price
for such 2001 Convertible Securities, except (i) as provided in Section 4.7(d)
with regard to the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock
and (ii) in the event that the Company is unable to purchase the 2001
Convertible Securities of a Holder or Holders for shares of Common Stock because
any of the conditions specified in Section 4.7(d) have not been satisfied, the
Company may purchase the Securities of such Holder or Holders for cash. The
Company may not change its election with respect to the consideration (or
components or percentages of components thereof) to be paid once the Company has
given its Company Notice to Holders except pursuant to this Section 4.7(b) or
pursuant to Section 4.7(d) in the event of a failure to satisfy, prior to the
close of business on the Purchase Date, any condition to the payment of the
Purchase Price, in whole or in part, in shares of Common Stock.

          The 2001 Convertible Securities to be purchased on any of the last two
Purchase Dates may be paid for in cash only.

          At least three Business Days before each Company Notice Date, the
Company shall deliver an Officers' Certificate to the Trustee specifying:

                                       13
<PAGE>

          i.     the manner of payment selected by the Company,

          ii.    the information required by Section 4.7(e) in the Company
     Notice,

          iii.   that the conditions to payment of the Purchase Price, or a
     specified percentage thereof, in shares of Common Stock, set forth in
     Section 4.7(d) have been or will be complied with; and

          iv.    whether the Company desires the Trustee to give the Company
     Notice required by Section 4.7(e).

     (c)  Purchase with Cash. At the option of the Company, the Purchase Price
          ------------------
of the 2001 Convertible Securities in respect of which a Purchase Notice
pursuant to Section 4.7(a) has been given, or a specified percentage thereof,
may be paid on the first three Purchase Dates by the Company with cash equal to
the aggregate Purchase Price of such 2001 Convertible Securities. The Purchase
Price of the 2001 Convertible Securities in respect of which a Purchase Notice
pursuant to Section 4.7(a) has been given shall be paid for the last two
Purchase Dates in cash equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of such 2001
Convertible Securities.

     (d)  Payment by Issuance of Shares of Common Stock. At the option of the
          ---------------------------------------------
Company, the Purchase Price of 2001 Convertible Securities in respect of which a
Purchase Notice pursuant to Section 4.7(a) has been given, or a specified
percentage thereof, may be paid on the first three Purchase Dates by the Company
by the issuance of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient
obtained by dividing (i) the portion of the Purchase Price (expressed in
dollars) to be paid in shares of Common Stock by (ii) the Market Price of one
share of Common Stock as determined by the Company in the Company Notice,
subject to the next succeeding paragraph.

          The Company shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock in
payment of the Purchase Price.  Instead, the Company shall pay cash based on the
Closing Sale Price for all fractional shares, in the manner set forth in Section
7.3.  It is understood that if a Holder elects to have more than one 2001
Convertible Security purchased, the number of shares of Common Stock shall be
based on the aggregate amount of 2001 Convertible Securities to be purchased.

          If the Company elects to purchase the 2001 Convertible Securities by
the issuance of shares of Common Stock, the Company Notice, as provided in
Section 4.7(e), shall be sent to the Holders (and to beneficial owners as
required by applicable law) not later than 20 Business Days prior to such
Purchase Date (the "Company Notice Date").

          Upon a payment by shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms hereof,
that portion of accrued and unpaid cash interest, if any, or amounts reflecting
accretion of the 2001 Convertible Security included in the Accreted Value or the
Restated Principal Amount (as the case may be), of the 2001 Convertible
Security, in each case attributable to the period from the Issue Date to the
Purchase Date with respect to the purchased 2001 Convertible Securities shall
not be cancelled, extinguished or forfeited but rather shall be deemed paid in
full to the Holder through the delivery of the shares of Common Stock in
exchange for the 2001 Convertible Security being purchased pursuant to the terms
hereof, and the fair market value of such Common Stock (together with any cash
payments in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock) shall be treated as
issued, to the extent thereof, first in exchange for accrued and unpaid cash

                                       14
<PAGE>

interest, if any, through the Purchase Date, and the balance, if any, of such
fair market value of such shares of Common Stock (and any such cash payment)
shall be treated as issued for the Accreted Value or Restated Principal Amount
(as the case may be) of the 2001 Convertible Security being purchased pursuant
to the provisions hereof.

          The Company's right to exercise its election to purchase 2001
Convertible Securities through the issuance of shares of Common Stock shall be
conditioned upon:

          i.     the Company's giving of timely Company Notice of an election to
     purchase all or a specified percentage of the 2001 Convertible Securities
     with shares of Common Stock as provided herein;

          ii.    the registration of such shares of Common Stock under the
     Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the
     Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), in each
     case, if required;

          iii.   the listing of such shares of Common Stock on the principal
     national or regional securities exchange on which the shares of Common
     Stock are listed or, if the shares of Common Stock are not then listed on a
     national or regional securities exchange, as reported by the Nasdaq Stock
     Market or other automated quotation system on which the Common Stock is
     then quoted;

          iv.    any necessary qualification or registration under applicable
     state securities laws or the availability of an exemption from such
     qualification and registration; and

          v.     the receipt by the Trustee of an Officers' Certificate and an
     Opinion of Counsel each stating that (A) the terms of the issuance of the
     shares of Common Stock are in conformity with the Indenture and (B) the
     shares of Common Stock to be issued by the Company in payment of the
     Purchase Price in respect of 2001 Convertible Securities have been duly
     authorized and, when issued and delivered pursuant to the terms of the
     Indenture in payment of the Purchase Price in respect of the 2001
     Convertible Securities, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-
     assessable and, to the best of such officers' or counsel's knowledge, free
     from preemptive rights, and, in the case of such Officers' Certificate,
     stating that the conditions in clauses (i) through (iv) above and the
     condition set forth in the second succeeding sentence have been satisfied
     and, in the case of such Opinion of Counsel, stating that the conditions in
     clauses (i) through (iv) above have been satisfied.

          Such Officers' Certificate shall also set forth the number of shares
of Common Stock to be issued for each $1,000 principal amount at maturity
(subject to upward adjustment in the event of a Rate Reset) and the Closing Sale
Price of a share of Common Stock on each trading day during the five trading day
period during which the Market Price is calculated.  The Company may pay the
Purchase Price (or any portion thereof) in shares of Common Stock only if the
information necessary to calculate the Market Price is published in a daily
newspaper of national circulation or by other appropriate means.  If the
foregoing conditions are not satisfied with respect to a Holder or Holders prior
to the close of business on the Purchase Date, and the Company has elected to
purchase the 2001 Convertible Securities pursuant to this Section 4.7

                                       15
<PAGE>

through the issuance of shares of Common Stock, the Company shall pay the entire
Purchase Price of the 2001 Convertible Securities of such Holder or Holders in
cash.

          The "Market Price" of Common Stock on a Purchase Date means the
average of the Closing Sale Prices of the shares of Common Stock for the five
trading day period ending on the third Business Day prior to such Purchase Date
(if the third Business Day prior to such Purchase Date is a trading day, or if
not, then on the last trading day immediately prior to that third Business Day),
appropriately adjusted to take into account the occurrence, during the period
commencing on the first of the trading days during the five trading day period
and ending on such Purchase Date, of any event described in Sections 7.6, 7.7 or
7.8 that would result in an adjustment of the Conversion Rate; subject, however,
to the conditions set forth in Sections 7.9 and 7.10.

          The "Closing Sale Price" of the shares of Common Stock on any date
means the closing per share sale price (or, if no closing sale price is
reported, the average of the bid and ask prices or, if more than one in either
case, the average of the average bid and the average ask prices) on such date as
reported in composite transactions for the principal United States securities
exchange on which the Common Stock is traded or, if the Common Stock is not
listed on a United States national or regional securities exchange, as reported
by the Nasdaq Stock Market or other automated quotation system on which the
Common Stock is then quoted.  In the absence of such quotations, the Company
shall be entitled to determine the sales price on the basis of such quotations
as it considers appropriate.

          "trading day" means each day on which the securities exchange or
quotation system that is used to determine the Closing Sale Price is open for
trading or quotation.

          Simultaneously with the delivery of a Company Notice, the Company
shall disseminate a press release containing information concerning the
determination of the actual number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon
redemption of Securities, through any two national news services then used by
the Company and may publish such information on its Web site or through any
other public medium that it may use at that time.

     (e)  Notice of Election. If the Company has elected to pay the Purchase
          ------------------
Price (or a specified percentage thereof) with shares of Common Stock, the
Company shall give notice to Holders setting forth information specified in this
Section 4.7(e) in the manner provided in Section 106 of the Indenture (the
"Company Notice").

          The Company Notice shall include a form of Purchase Notice to be
completed by a Holder and shall state:

          (1)  that the Company will pay the Purchase Price for the 2001
     Convertible Securities in shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash
     and shares of Common Stock specifying the applicable percentages for each;

          (2)  that each Holder will receive shares of Common Stock with a
     Market Price determined as of a specified date prior to the Purchase Date
     equal to such specified percentage of the Purchase Price of the 2001
     Convertible Securities held by such Holder (except any cash amount to be
     paid in lieu of fractional shares);

                                       16
<PAGE>

          (3)    the method of calculating the Market Price of the shares of
     Common Stock;

          (4)    that because the Market Price of shares of Common Stock will be
     determined prior to the Purchase Date, Holders of the 2001 Convertible
     Securities will bear the market risk with respect to the value of the
     shares of Common Stock to be received from the date such Market Price is
     determined to the Purchase Date; and

          (5)    the Purchase Price per 2001 Convertible Security and the
     Conversion Rate per 2001 Convertible Security and any adjustments thereto;

          (6)    the name and address of the Paying Agent, the Conversion Agent
     and the Stock Transfer Agent;

          (7)    that 2001 Convertible Securities as to which a Purchase Notice
     has been given may be converted if they are otherwise convertible only in
     accordance with Article Seven of this Fourth Supplemental Indenture and
     Section 7 of the 2001 Convertible Securities if the applicable Purchase

          At the Company's request, the Trustee shall give such Company Notice
in the Company's name and at the Company's expense; provided, however, that, in
all cases, the text of such Company Notice shall be prepared by the Company.

     (f)  Covenants of the Company. All shares of Common Stock delivered upon
          ------------------------
purchase of the 2001 Convertible Securities shall be newly-issued shares or
treasury shares, shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable, and shall be free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or
adverse claim created by the Company.

     (g)  Procedure upon Purchase.  The Company shall deposit (in respect of of
          -----------------------
cash purchases under this Section 4.7 or for fractional interests in shares of
Common Stock, as applicable) or shall cause its Stock Transfer Agent to prepare
and issue shares of Common Stock ready for delivery in book-entry form through
the facilities of DTC, or a combination thereof, as applicable, at the time and
in the manner as provided in Section 4.10, sufficient to pay the aggregate
Purchase Price of all 2001 Convertible Securities to be purchased pursuant to
this Section 4.7. The Stock Transfer Agent shall confirm that it has received
such direction from the Company to the Trustee in writing. As soon as
practicable after the Purchase Date, the Company shall cause the Stock Transfer
Agent to deliver to each Holder entitled to receive shares of Common Stock, the
number of full shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of the Purchase Price
and cash in lieu of any fractional interests in shares of Common Stock. The
person in whose name the shares of Common Stock are registered shall be treated
as a holder of record of shares of Common Stock on the Business Day following

dividends on the shares of Common Stock the record date for which occurred on or
prior to the Purchase Date.

     (h)  Taxes.  If a Holder of a purchased 2001 Convertible Security is paid
          -----
in shares of Common Stock, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or
similar issue or transfer tax due on such issue of shares of Common Stock.
However, the Holder shall pay any such tax that is due because the Holder
requests the shares of Common Stock to be issued in a name other than the
Holder's name. The Paying Agent may refuse to deliver the certificates
representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than the
Holder's name until the Paying Agent receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax
that will be due because the shares of Common Stock are to be issued in a name
other than the Holder's name. Nothing herein shall preclude any income tax
withholding required by law or regulations.

Date at a purchase price per 2001 Convertible Security equal to the Accreted
Value thereof or, if the Company has elected to restate the principal amount of
the 2001 Convertible Securities and pay cash interest on the 2001 Convertible
Securities following the occurrence of a Tax Event, at a purchase price per 2001
Convertible Security equal to the Restated Principal Amount thereof plus accrued
and unpaid cash interest, if any, up to but not including the Change of Control
Purchase Date (in either such case, the "Change of Control

                                       18

Purchase Price"), subject to satisfaction by or on behalf of the Holder of the
requirements set forth in Section 4.8(c).

          "Change of Control Purchase Date" shall mean the date selected by the
Company for the purchase of the 2001 Convertible Securities that is not less
than 10 and not more than 30 days after the Final Surrender Date.

          "Final Surrender Date" shall mean the date which is, subject to any
contrary requirements of applicable law, 60 days after the date of mailing of
the Change of Control Company Notice.

          A "Change of Control" shall be deemed to have occurred at such time
after the 2001 Convertible Securities are originally issued as either of the
following events shall occur:

          (1)  there is a report filed on Schedule 13D or TO (or any successor
schedule, form or report) pursuant to the Exchange Act, disclosing that any
person (for the purposes of this Section 4.8 only, as the term "person" is used
in Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) has become the
beneficial owner (as the term "beneficial owner" is defined under Rule 13d-3 or
any successor rule or regulation promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 50% or
more of the aggregate voting power of the Common Stock and other Capital Stock
of the Company into which the Common Stock has been reclassified or changed then
outstanding; provided that a person shall not be deemed beneficial owner of, or
to own beneficially, (A) any securities tendered pursuant to a tender or
exchange offer made by or on behalf of such person or any of such person's
Affiliates or Associates until such tendered securities are accepted for
purchase or exchange thereunder or (B) any securities if such beneficial
ownership (1) arises solely as a result of a revocable proxy delivered in
response to a proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to the applicable
rules and regulations under the Exchange Act and (2) is not also then reportable
on Schedule 13D (or any successor schedule) under the Exchange Act; or

          (2)  there shall be consummated any share exchange, consolidation or
merger of the Company pursuant to which the Common Stock would be converted
into, or into the right to receive, cash, securities or other property, in each
case other than a share exchange, consolidation or merger of the Company in
which the holders of the Common Stock and other Capital Stock of the Company
with equivalent voting rights immediately prior to the share exchange,
consolidation or merger have, directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the
total voting power in the aggregate of all classes of Capital Stock of the
continuing or surviving corporation immediately after the share exchange,
consolidation or merger;

unless, in each case, at least 80% of the consideration, other than cash
payments for fractional shares, in the transaction or transactions constituting
the change of control, consists of shares of voting common stock of the person
that are, or upon issuance will be, traded on a national securities exchange or
approved for trading on an established automated over-the-counter trading market
in the United States.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change of Control shall
not be deemed to have occurred by virtue of the Company, any Subsidiary, any
employee stock ownership plan or any other employee benefit plan of the Company
or any Subsidiary, or any person holding Common Stock for or pursuant to the
terms of any such employee stock ownership plan or employee benefit plan, filing
or becoming obligated to file a report under or in

                                       19
<PAGE>

response to Schedule 13D or Schedule TO (or any successor schedule, form or
report) under the Exchange Act disclosing beneficial ownership by it of shares
of Common Stock, whether in excess of 50% or otherwise.

          (b)  No later than 30 days after the occurrence of a Change of
Control, the Company shall mail a written notice of the Change of Control (the
"Change of Control Company Notice") by first-class mail to the Trustee and to
each Holder (and to beneficial owners as required by applicable law).  The
Company shall cause a copy of such Change of Control Company Notice to be
published in a newspaper of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The

          (4)  the Change of Control Purchase Price per 2001 Convertible

          (5)  the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion
               Agent;

          (6)  the Conversion Rate per 2001 Convertible Security and any
               adjustments thereto;

          (7)  that the 2001 Convertible Securities as to which a Change of
               Control Purchase Notice has been given may not be converted, even
               if they are otherwise convertible pursuant to Article Seven of
               this Fourth Supplemental Indenture, if the Change of Control
               Purchase Notice has been delivered and that the delivery of a
               Change of Control Purchase Notice is irrevocable (unless the
               Company defaults in payment of the Change of Control Purchase
               Price on the Change of Control Purchase Date and the Holder
               revokes its Change of Control Purchase Notice);

          (8)  that the 2001 Convertible Securities must be surrendered to the
               Paying Agent to collect payment of the Change of Control Price;
               (9) that the Change of Control Purchase Price for any 2001
               Convertible Security as to which a Change of Control Purchase
               Notice has been duly given shall be paid only if the Holder of
               such Security, on or before the Final Surrender Date, surrenders
               such 2001 Convertible Security to the Paying Agent;

          (10) briefly, the procedures the Holder must follow to exercise rights
               under this Section 4.8;

          (11) briefly, the conversion rights, if any, of the 2001 Convertible

          (13) the CUSIP number(s) of the 2001 Convertible Securities.

          (c)  A Holder may exercise its rights specified in Section 4.8(a) upon
delivery of a written notice of purchase (a "Change of Control Purchase Notice")
to the Paying Agent at any time on or prior to the close of business on the

Securities.

          The delivery of such 2001 Convertible Security to the Paying Agent
with such Change of Control Purchase Notice (together with all necessary
endorsements) at the offices of the Paying Agent on or prior to the Final
Surrender Date shall be a condition to the receipt by the Holder of the Change
of Control Purchase Price therefor; provided, however, that such Change of
Control Purchase Price shall be so paid pursuant to this Section 4.8 only if the
2001 Convertible Security so delivered to the Paying Agent shall conform in all
respects to the description thereof set forth in the related Change of Control
Purchase Notice.

          The delivery of such 2001 Convertible Security with such Change of

payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price for the 2001 Convertible
Securities on the Change of Control Purchase Date) and the right to convert such
2001 Convertible Security shall expire when such 2001 Convertible Security and
such Change of Control Purchase Notice are delivered (unless the Company
defaults in payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price for the Securities
on the Change of Control Purchase Date and such delivery is revoked).

Control Purchase Price, cash interest, if any, on the 2001 Convertible
Securities subject to a Change of Control Purchase Notice shall cease to accrue

Change of Control Purchase Date.

          The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by

                                 ARTICLE SEVEN
                                  CONVERSION

          Section 7.1   Conversion Privilege. A Holder of a 2001 Convertible
                        --------------------
Security may convert such 2001 Convertible Security into shares of Common Stock
at any time if the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock for at least 20
trading days in the 30-day period ending on the trading day prior to the
Conversion Date is more than the Applicable Percentage then in effect of the
Accreted Conversion Price per share of Common Stock on such Conversion Date. The
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a 2001 Convertible
Security per $1,000 principal amount at maturity thereof (subject to upward
adjustment in the event of a Rate Reset) (the "Conversion Rate") shall be that
set forth in Section 7 in the Securities, subject to adjustment as herein set
forth.

          A Holder may convert a portion of the principal amount at maturity of
a 2001 Convertible Security if the portion converted is $1,000 principal amount
at maturity (subject to upward adjustment in the event of a Rate Reset) or an
integral multiple of $1,000 (or such increased amount).  Provisions of this
Fourth Supplemental Indenture that apply to conversion of all of a 2001
Convertible Security also apply to conversion of a portion of a 2001 Convertible
Security.

          Section 7.2   Conversion Procedure. To convert a 2001 Convertible
                        --------------------
Security a Holder must satisfy the requirements in Section 7 of the Securities.
The first Business Day on which the Holder satisfies all those requirements is
the conversion date (the "Conversion Date").

          As soon as practicable after the Conversion Date, the Company shall
deliver to the Holder, through the Conversion Agent, a certificate for the
number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange
and cash in lieu of any fractional share determined pursuant to Section 7.3.
The Company shall also direct its Stock Transfer Agent to prepare and issue
Common Stock ready for delivery in book-entry form through the facilities of
DTC.  The Stock Transfer Agent shall confirm to the Trustee in writing that it
has received such instructions from the Company.  The person in whose name the
certificate is registered shall be treated as a shareholder of record as of the
close of business on the Conversion Date.  Upon conversion of a 2001 Convertible
Security, such person shall no longer be a Holder of such 2001 Convertible
Security.

          No payment or adjustment shall be made for dividends on, or other
distributions with respect to, any Common Stock except as provided in this
Article Seven.  On conversion of a

                                       26
<PAGE>

2001 Convertible Security, no accrued and unpaid cash interest, if any, or
amounts reflecting accretion of the 2001 Convertible Securities included in the
Accreted Value or the Restated Principal Amount (as the case may be), of the
2001 Convertible Securities, in each case through the Conversion Date, shall be
payable with respect to the converted 2001 Convertible Security and no such cash
interest or amounts reflecting accretion of the 2001 Convertible Securities
shall be cancelled, extinguished or forfeited, but rather shall be deemed to be
paid in full to the Holder thereof through delivery of the shares of Common
Stock (together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of fractional shares) in
exchange for the 2001 Convertible Security being converted pursuant to the
provisions hereof; and the fair market value of such shares of Common Stock
(together with any such cash payment in lieu of fractional shares) shall be
treated as issued, to the extent thereof, first in exchange for accrued and
unpaid cash interest, if any, through the Conversion Date, and the balance, if
any, of such fair market value of such shares of Common Stock (and any such cash
payment) shall be treated as issued for the Accreted Value or Restated Principal
Amount (as the case may be) of the 2001 Convertible Security being converted
pursuant to the provisions hereof. The Company shall not adjust the conversion
ratio to account for accrued and unpaid cash interest, if any, or for amounts
reflecting accretion of the 2001 Convertible Securities included in the Accreted
Value or Restated Principal Amount (as the case may be). If the Holder converts
more than one 2001 Convertible Security at the same time, the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion shall be based on the aggregate
principal amount at maturity of the Securities converted.

          If the last day on which a 2001 Convertible Security may be converted
is not a Business Day, the 2001 Convertible Security may be surrendered on the
next succeeding Business Day.

          Upon surrender of a 2001 Convertible Security that is converted in
part, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
to the Holder, a new 2001 Convertible Security in an authorized denomination
equal in principal amount at maturity to the unconverted portion of the 2001
Convertible Security surrendered.  With respect to Global Securities, the
Trustee shall notify DTC to adjust the aggregate principal amount at maturity
outstanding downwards to reflect the partial surrender through facilities of DTC
and the Trustee shall reflect such adjustment on the Trustee's records on such
Global Security.

          If a Holder surrenders a 2001 Convertible Security for conversion
after the Option Exercise Date and during the period after any record date and
prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, such Holder shall pay to the
Company an amount equal to the cash interest payable on such Interest Payment
Date on such 2001 Convertible Security; provided that if such 2001 Convertible
Security (or any portion thereof) shall have been called for redemption on a
Redemption Date occurring during such period or on such Interest Payment Date,
such Holder shall not be required to make such payment to the Company.

          Section 7.3   Fractional Shares. 2001 Convertible Securityholders
                        -----------------
shall not receive a fractional share upon conversion of a 2001 Convertible
Security. Instead, the Holder shall receive cash for the current market value of
the fractional share. The current market value of a fractional share shall be
determined by multiplying the Closing Sale Price, on the last trading day
immediately prior to the Conversion Date, of a full share by the fractional
amount , to the nearest 1/1,000th of a share, and rounding the product to the
nearest whole cent.

          Section 7.4   Taxes on Conversion. If a Holder submits a 2001
                        -------------------
Convertible Security for conversion, the Company shall pay any documentary,
stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of shares of Common
Stock upon the conversion. However, the Holder shall pay any such tax which is
due because the Holder requests the shares to be issued in a name other than the
Holder's name. The Conversion Agent may refuse to deliver the certificates
representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than the
Holder's name until the Conversion Agent receives a sum sufficient to pay any
tax which will be due because the shares are to be issued in a name other than
the Holder's name. Nothing herein shall preclude any tax withholding required by
law or regulations.

          Section 7.5   Company to Provide Stock. The Company shall, prior to
                        ------------------------
issuance of any 2001 Convertible Securities under this Article Seven, and from
time to time as may be necessary, reserve out of its authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to permit
the conversion of the 2001 Convertible Securities.

          All shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the 2001
Convertible Securities shall be newly issued shares or treasury shares, shall be
duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and shall be free from
preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim created by the Company.
The Company shall endeavor promptly to comply with all federal and state
securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of shares of Common Stock upon
conversion of 2001 Convertible Securities, if any, and shall list such shares of
Common Stock on the principal national or regional securities exchange on which
the shares of Common Stock are listed or, if the shares of Common Stock are not
then listed on a national or regional securities exchange, on the Nasdaq Stock
Market or other automated quotation system on which the Common Stock is then
quoted.

          Section 7.6   Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock. If, after the
                        --------------------------------------
Issue Date of the 2001 Convertible Securities, the Company:

               (i)    pays a dividend or makes another distribution on the
          Common Stock payable exclusively in shares of Common Stock;

               (ii)   subdivides the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
          greater number of shares;

               (iii)  combines the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
          smaller number of shares;

               (iv)   pays a dividend or makes a distribution on the Common
          Stock in shares of its Capital Stock (other than Common Stock or
          rights, warrants or options for its Capital Stock); or

               (v)    issues by reclassification of the Common Stock any shares
          of its Capital Stock (other than Common Stock or rights, warrants or
          options for its Capital Stock);

then the conversion privilege and the Conversion Rate in effect immediately
prior to such action shall be adjusted so that the Holder of a 2001 Convertible
Security thereafter converted may

                                       28
<PAGE>

receive the number of shares of Common Stock or Capital Stock, as the case may
be, of the Company that such Holder would have owned immediately following such
action if such Holder had converted the 2001 Convertible Security immediately
prior to such action.

          The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record
date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the
effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.

          If after an adjustment a Holder of a 2001 Convertible Security upon
conversion of such 2001 Convertible Security may receive shares of two or more
classes of Capital Stock of the Company, the Conversion Rate shall thereafter be
subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of an action taken with respect to any
such class of Capital Stock as is contemplated by this Article Seven with
respect to the shares of Common Stock, on terms comparable to those applicable
to shares of Common Stock in this Article Seven.

          Section 7.7   Adjustment for Rights Issue. If after the Issue Date of
                        ---------------------------
the 2001 Convertible Securities, the Company distributes any rights, warrants or
options to all holders of shares of its Common Stock entitling them, for a
period within 60 days after the record date for such distribution, to purchase
shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current Market Price
of the Common Stock as of the Time of Determination, the Conversion Rate shall
be adjusted in accordance with the formula:

        R'  =    R x        (O + N)
                       -----------------
                        (O + (N x P)/M)

     where:

     R' = the adjusted Conversion Rate.

     R  =  the current Conversion Rate.

     O  =  the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date
for the distribution to which this Section 7.7 is being applied.

     N  =  the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered pursuant to
the distribution.

     P  =  the offering price per share of the additional shares.

     M  =  the Average Sale Price, minus, in the case of (i) a distribution to
which Section 7.6(iv) applies or (ii) a distribution to which Section 7.8
applies, for which, in each case, (x) the record date shall occur on or before
the record date for the distribution to which this Section 7.7 applies and (y)
the Ex-Dividend Time shall occur on or after the date of the Time of
Determination for the distribution to which this Section 7.7 applies, the fair
market value (on the record date for the distribution to which this Section 7.7
applies) of the:

                    1.   Capital Stock of the Company distributed in respect of
     each share of Common Stock in such Section 7.6(iv) distribution, and

                                       29
<PAGE>

                    2.   assets of the Company or debt securities or any rights,
     warrants or options to purchase securities of the Company distributed in
     respect of each share of Common Stock in such Section 7.8 distribution.

          The Board of Directors of the Company shall determine fair market
values for the purposes of this Section 7.7, except as Section 7.8 otherwise
provides in the case of a Spin-off.

          "Average Sale Price" means the average of the Closing Sale Prices of
the shares of Common Stock for the shorter of

                         (A)  30 consecutive trading days ending on the last
          full trading day prior to the Time of Determination with respect to
          the rights, warrants or options or distribution in respect of which
          the Average Sale Price is being calculated, or

                         (B)  the period (x) commencing on the date next
          succeeding the first public announcement of (a) the issuance of
          rights, warrants or options or (b) the distribution, in each case, in
          respect of which the Average Sale Price is being calculated and (y)
          proceeding through the last full trading day prior to the Time of
          Determination with respect to the rights, warrants or options or
          distribution in respect of which the Average Sale Price is being
          calculated (excluding days within such period, if any, which are not
          trading days), or

                         (C)  the period, if any, (x) commencing on the date
          next succeeding the Ex-Dividend Time with respect to the next
          preceding (a) issuance of rights, warrants or options or (b)
          distribution, in each case, for which an adjustment is required by the
          provisions of Section 7.6(iv), 7.7 or 7.8 and (y) proceeding through
          the last full trading day prior to the Time of Determination with
          respect to the rights, warrants or options or distribution in respect
          of which the Average Sale Price is being calculated (excluding days
          within such period, if any, that are not trading days).

          In the event that the Ex-Dividend Time (or in the case of a
subdivision, combination or reclassification, the effective date with respect
thereto) with respect to a dividend, subdivision, combination or
reclassification to which Section 7.6(i), (ii), (iii) or (v) applies occurs
during the period applicable for calculating "Average Sale Price" pursuant to
the definition in the preceding paragraph, "Average Sale Price" shall be
calculated for such period in a manner determined by the Board of Directors of
the Company to reflect the impact of such dividend, subdivision, combination or
reclassification on the Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock during
such period.

          "Time of Determination" means the time and date of the earlier of (i)
the determination of shareholders entitled to receive rights, warrants or
options or a distribution, in each case, to which this Section 7.7 or Section
7.8 applies and (ii) the time ("Ex-Dividend Time") immediately prior to the
commencement of "ex-dividend" trading for such rights, warrants or options or
distribution on the principal national or regional securities exchange on which
the shares of Common Stock are listed or, if the shares of Common Stock is not
then listed

                                       30
<PAGE>

on a national or regional securities exchange, on the Nasdaq Stock
Market or other automated quotation system on which the Common Stock is then
quoted.

          The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record
date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive the rights,
warrants or options to which this Section 7.7 applies.  If all of the shares of
Common Stock subject to such rights, warrants or options have not been issued
when such rights, warrants or options expire, then the Conversion Rate shall
promptly be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had
the adjustment upon the issuance of such rights, warrants or options been made
on the basis of the actual number of shares of Common Stock issued upon the
exercise of such rights, warrants or options.

          No adjustment shall be made under this Section 7.7 if the application
of the formula stated above in this Section 7.7 would result in a value of R'
that is equal to or less than the value of R.

          Section 7.8  Adjustment for Other Distributions. If, after the Issue
                       ----------------------------------
Date of the 2001 Convertible Securities, the Company distributes to all holders
of its shares of Common Stock any of its debt securities or assets or any
rights, warrants or options to purchase securities of the Company (including
cash, but excluding (x) distributions of Common Stock or Capital Stock referred
to in Section 7.6 and distributions of rights, warrants or options referred to
in Section 7.7 and (y) cash dividends or other cash distributions that are paid
out of current consolidated net earnings or consolidated earnings retained in
the business as shown on the books of the Company unless such cash dividends or
other cash distributions are Extraordinary Cash Dividends), the Conversion Rate
shall be adjusted, subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of this
Section 7.8, in accordance with the formula:

          R' =  R x M
               ------
                (M-F)

where:

     R' = the adjusted Conversion Rate.

     R  = the current Conversion Rate.

     M  = the Average Sale Price, minus, in the case of a distribution to which
Section 7.6(iv) applies, for which (i) the record date shall occur on or before
the record date for the distribution to which this Section 7.8 applies and (ii)
the Ex-Dividend Time shall occur on or after the date of the Time of
Determination for the distribution to which this Section 7.8 applies, the fair
market value (on the record date for the distribution to which this Section 7.8
applies) of any Capital Stock of the Company distributed in respect of each
share of Common Stock in such Section 7.6(iv) distribution.

     F  = the fair market value (on the record date for the distribution to
which this Section 7.8 applies) of the assets, securities, rights, warrants or
options to be distributed in respect of each share of Common Stock in the
distribution to which this Section 7.8 is being applied (including,

                                       31
<PAGE>

in the case of cash dividends or other cash distributions giving rise to an
adjustment, all such cash distributed concurrently).

          In the event the Company pays a dividend or makes a distribution to
all holders of its Common Stock consisting of shares of Capital Stock of a
Subsidiary, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted, if at all, based on the fair
market value of the Subsidiary stock so distributed relative to the fair market
value of the Common Stock, as discussed below.  The Board of Directors shall
determine fair market values for the purposes of this Section 7.8, except that
in respect of a dividend or other distribution of shares of Capital Stock of any
class or series, or similar equity interests, of or relating to a Subsidiary or
other business unit of the Company (a "Spin-off"), the fair market value of the
securities to be distributed shall equal the product of the number of those
securities distributed in respect of each share of Common Stock multiplied by
the average of the daily Closing Sale Prices of those securities for the five
consecutive trading days commencing on and including the sixth day of trading of
those securities after the effectiveness of the Spin-off and the fair market
value of the Common Stock shall mean the average of the daily Closing Sale
Prices for the Common Stock for the same five trading days.  In the event,
however, that an underwritten initial public offering of the securities in the
Spin-off occurs simultaneously with the Spin-off, fair market value of the
securities distributed in the Spin-off shall mean the initial public offering
price of such securities and the average of the daily Closing Sale Prices shall
mean the Closing Sale Price for the Common Stock on the same trading day.

          The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record
date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive the distribution
to which this Section 7.8 applies, except that an adjustment related to a Spin-
off shall become effective at the earlier to occur of (i) 10 trading days after
the effective date of the Spin-off and (ii) the initial public offering of the
securities distributed in the Spin-off.

          For purposes of this Section 7.8, the term "Extraordinary Cash
Dividend" shall mean any cash dividend with respect to the shares of Common
Stock the amount of which, together with the aggregate amount of cash dividends
on the shares of Common Stock to be aggregated with such cash dividend in
accordance with the provisions of this paragraph, equals or exceeds the
threshold percentage set forth in the following paragraph.  For purposes of the
following paragraph, the "Measurement Period" with respect to a cash dividend on
the shares of Common Stock shall mean the 365 consecutive-day period ending on
the date prior to the Ex-Dividend Time with respect to such cash dividend, and
the "Relevant Cash Dividends" with respect to a cash dividend on the shares of
Common Stock shall mean the cash dividends on the shares of Common Stock with
Ex-Dividend Times occurring in the Measurement Period.

          If, upon the date prior to the Ex-Dividend Time with respect a cash
dividend on the shares of Common Stock, the aggregate amount of such cash
dividend together with the amounts of all Relevant Cash Dividends equals or
exceeds on a per share basis 5% of the Closing Sale Price of the shares of
Common Stock on the last trading day preceding the date of declaration by the
Board of Directors of the cash dividend with respect to which this provision is
being applied, then such cash dividend together with all Relevant Cash
Dividends, shall be deemed to be an Extraordinary Cash Dividend and for purposes
of applying the formula set forth above in this Section 7.8, the value of "F"
shall be equal to (y) the aggregate amount of such

                                       32
<PAGE>

cash dividend together with the amount of all Relevant Cash Dividends, minus (z)
the aggregate amount of all Relevant Cash Dividends for which a prior adjustment
in the Conversion Rate was previously made under this Section 7.8.

          In making the determinations required by the preceding paragraph, the
amount of cash dividends paid on a per share basis and the amount of any
Relevant Cash Dividends specified in the preceding paragraph, shall be
appropriately adjusted to reflect the occurrence during such period of any event
described in Section 7.6.

          In the event that, with respect to any distribution to which this
Section 7.8 would otherwise apply, the difference "M-F" as defined in the above
formula is less than $1.00 or "F" is equal to or greater than "M", then the
adjustment provided by this Section 7.8 shall not be made and in lieu thereof
the provisions of Section 7.14 shall apply to such distribution.

          Section 7.9  When Adjustment May Be Deferred. No adjustment in the
                       -------------------------------
Conversion Rate need be made unless the adjustment would require an increase or
decrease of at least 1% in the Conversion Rate. Any adjustments that are not
made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent
adjustment.

          All calculations under this Article Seven shall be made to the nearest
cent or to the nearest 1/1,000th of a share, as the case may be.

          Section 7.10 When No Adjustment Required. With respect to the
                       ---------------------------
Company's existing shareholders rights plan and if the Company adopts a new
shareholders rights plan under which the Company issues rights providing that
each share of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the 2001 Convertible
Security at any time prior to the distribution of separate certificates
representing the rights shall be entitled to receive the rights, no adjustment
need be made as a result of: (i) the issuance of the rights; (ii) the
distribution of separate certificates representing the rights; (iii) the
exercise or redemption of the rights in accordance with any rights agreement; or
(iv) the termination or invalidation of the rights.

          No adjustment need be made for a transaction referred to in 7.6, 7.7,
7.8 or 7.14 if Holders of the 2001 Convertible Securities may participate in the
transaction without conversion on a basis and with notice that the Board of
Directors of the Company determines to be fair and appropriate in light of the
basis and notice on which holders of shares of Common Stock participate in the
transaction.  No adjustment need be made for rights to purchase shares of Common
Stock pursuant to a Company plan for reinvestment of dividends.

          No adjustment need be made for a change in the par value or no par
value of the shares of Common Stock.

          To the extent the 2001 Convertible Securities become convertible
pursuant to this Article Seven in whole or in part into cash, no adjustment need
be made thereafter as to the cash.  Interest shall not accrue on the cash.

          No adjustment will be made pursuant to this Article 7 that would
result, through the application of two or more provisions hereof, in the
duplication of any adjustment.

          Section 7.11 Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Conversion Rate is
                       --------------------
adjusted, the Company shall promptly mail to 2001 Convertible Securityholders a
notice of the adjustment. The Company shall file with the Trustee and the
Conversion Agent such notice and a certificate from the Company's independent
public accountants briefly stating the facts requiring the adjustment and the
manner of computing it and setting forth the amount of adjustment per $1,000
aggregate principal at maturity (which $1,000 amount is subject to an upward
adjustment) of the 2001 Convertible Securities. The certificate shall be
conclusive evidence that the adjustment is correct. Neither the Trustee nor any
Conversion Agent shall be under any duty or responsibility with respect to any
such certificate except to exhibit the same to any Holder desiring inspection
thereof.

          Section 7.12 Voluntary Increase. The Company from time to time may
                       ------------------
increase the Conversion Rate by any amount at any time for at least 20 days, so
long as the increase is irrevocable during such period. Whenever the Conversion
Rate is increased, the Company shall mail to 2001 Convertible Securityholders
and file with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent a notice of the increase,
setting forth the amount of adjustment per $1,000 aggregate principal amount at
maturity (which $1,000 amount is subject to an upward adjustment) of the 2001
Convertible Securities. The Company shall mail the notice at least 15 days
before the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect. The notice shall
state the increased Conversion Rate and the period it will be in effect. A
voluntary increase of the Conversion Rate does not change or adjust the
Conversion Rate otherwise in effect for purposes of Section 7.6, 7.7 or 7.8.

          Section 7.13 Notice of Certain Transactions. If:
                       ------------------------------

               1.   the Company takes any action that would require an
adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 7.6, 7.7 or 7.8 (unless no
adjustment is to occur pursuant to Section 7.10); or

               2.   the Company takes any action that would require a
supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 7.14; or

               3.   there is a liquidation or dissolution of the Company;

then the Company shall mail to 2001 Convertible Securityholders and file with
the Trustee and the Conversion Agent a notice stating the proposed record date
for a dividend or distribution or the proposed effective date of a subdivision,
combination, reclassification, consolidation, merger, binding share exchange,
transfer, liquidation or dissolution.  The Company shall file and mail the
notice at least 15 days before such date.  Failure to file or mail the notice or
any defect in it shall not affect the validity of the transaction.

          Section 7.14 Reorganization of Company; Special Distributions . If the
                       ------------------------------------------------
Company is a party to a transaction subject to Section 801 and 802 of the
Indenture (other than a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company in a transaction in which the holders of shares of Common Stock
immediately prior to such transaction do not receive securities, cash or other
assets of the Company or any other person) or a merger or binding share exchange
that reclassifies or changes its outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Person
obligated to deliver securities, cash or other assets upon conversion of 2001
Convertible Securities shall enter into a

                                       34
<PAGE>

supplemental indenture (as described below). If the issuer of securities
deliverable upon conversion of 2001 Convertible Securities is an Affiliate of
the successor Company, that issuer shall join in the supplemental indenture.

          The supplemental indenture shall provide that the Holder of a 2001
Convertible Security may convert it into the kind and amount of securities, cash
or other assets that such Holder would have received immediately after the
consolidation, merger, binding share exchange or transfer if such Holder had
converted the 2001 Convertible Security immediately before the effective date of
the transaction, assuming (to the extent applicable) that such Holder (i) was
not a constituent Person or an Affiliate of a constituent Person to such
transaction; (ii) made no election with respect thereto; and (iii) was treated
alike with the plurality of non-electing Holders. The supplemental indenture
shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practical to the adjustments provided for in this Article Seven.  The successor
Company shall mail to Holders of 2001 Convertible Securities a notice briefly
describing the supplemental indenture.

          If this Section applies, neither Section 7.6 nor 7.7 applies.

          If the Company makes a distribution to all holders of its shares of
Common Stock of any of its assets, or debt securities or any rights, warrants or
options to purchase securities of the Company that, but for the provisions of
the last paragraph of Section 7.8, would otherwise result in an adjustment in
the Conversion Rate pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.8, then, from and
after the record date for determining the holders of shares of Common Stock
entitled to receive the distribution, a Holder of a 2001 Convertible Security
that converts such 2001 Convertible Security in accordance with the provisions
of this Fourth Supplemental Indenture shall upon such conversion be entitled to
receive, in addition to the shares of shares of Common Stock into which the 2001
Convertible Security is convertible, the kind and amount of securities, cash or
other assets comprising the distribution that such Holder would have received if
such Holder had converted the 2001 Convertible Security immediately prior to the
record date for determining the holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to
receive the distribution.

          Section 7.15 Conversion Rate Upon Tax Event. If the Company exercises
                       ------------------------------
its option to pay cash interest on, and restate the principal amount at maturity
of, the 2001 Convertible Securities following the occurrence of a Tax Event
pursuant to Section 1 of the Securities, a Holder shall be entitled to receive a
number of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of any 2001 Convertible
Security that is equal to the number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder
would have received upon conversion of such 2001 Convertible Security if the
Company had not exercised such option.

          Section 7.16 Company Determination Final. Any determination that the
                       ---------------------------
Company or the Board of Directors of the Company must make pursuant to Section
7.3, 7.6, 7.7, 7.8, 7.9, 7.10, 7.14 or 7.17 is conclusive, absent manifest
error.

          Section 7.17 Trustee's Adjustment Disclaimer. The Trustee has no duty
                       -------------------------------
to determine when an adjustment under this Article Seven should be made, how it
should be made or what it should be. The Trustee may conclusively rely on the
correctness of any Officers' Certificate delivered to it under this Article
Seven, setting forth the calculation of any such

                                       35
<PAGE>

adjustment amount. The Trustee has no duty to determine whether a supplemental
indenture under Section 7.14 need be entered into or whether any provisions of
any supplemental indenture are correct. The Trustee shall not be accountable for
and makes no representation as to the validity or value of any securities or
assets issued upon conversion of 2001 Convertible Securities. The Trustee shall
not be responsible for the Company's failure to comply with this Article Seven.
Each Conversion Agent shall have the same protection under this Section 7.16 as
the Trustee.

          Section 7.18 Simultaneous Adjustments. In the event that this Article
                       ------------------------
Seven requires adjustments to the Conversion Rate under more than one of
Sections 7.6, 7.7 or 7.8, and the record dates for the distributions giving rise
to such adjustments shall occur on the same date, then such adjustments shall be
made by applying, first, the provisions of Section 7.6, second, the provisions
of Section 7.8 and, third, the provisions of Section 7.7.

          Section 7.19 Successive Adjustments. After an adjustment to the
                       ----------------------
Conversion Rate under this Article Seven, any subsequent event requiring an
adjustment under this Article Seven shall cause an adjustment to the Conversion
Rate as so adjusted.

            Zero Coupon Convertible Debentures due October 30, 2021


1.  Accretion in Value and Cash Interest.
    ------------------------------------

          Accretion and Reset;  Cash Interest.  Except as provided in this
Section 1, this Security shall not bear cash interest.  This Security shall
initially represent the Issue Price and shall accrete in value such that the
initial yield to maturity shall be 1.00% per annum through the Stated Maturity.
The accretion rate in effect with respect to this Security shall at any time
equal the yield to maturity then in effect for this Security paid.  The yield to
maturity (or, if the Company has elected to restate the principal amount of the
Securities and pay cash interest on the Securities following the occurrence of a
Tax Event, the cash interest rate) on this Security shall be reset on October
30, 2007, October 30, 2011 and October 30, 2016 (each, a "Reset Date") to a rate
per annum equal to the Five-Year Treasury Rate minus 2.80%.  In no event,
however, shall the yield to maturity (or the cash interest rate, if the
principal amount of the Securities shall have been restated following the
occurrence of a Tax Event) be reset below the initial rate per annum or above
3.00% per annum.  The principal amount of this Security at any time shall equal
the Accreted Value (or, if the Company has elected to restate the principal
amount of this Security and pay cash interest on this Security following the
occurrence of a Tax Event, the Restated Principal Amount) of this Security.

          Cash Interest and Accretion Computation and Method of Payment.  Any
cash interest payable hereunder following the occurrence of a Tax Event and any
accretion in value of the Securities shall be computed based on a 360-day year
of twelve 30-day months and semi-annual periods ending on October 30 and April
30 of each year.  Cash interest (if the principal amount of the Securities shall
have been restated following the occurrence of a Tax Event) shall be payable
semi-annually in arrears on (but excluding) each October 30 and April 30 (each
an "Interest Payment Date") through the Stated Maturity unless the Securities
are earlier converted, redeemed or purchased by the Company or otherwise repaid.
The Securities shall accrete in value from October 30, 2001.  If the Company
elects to pay cash interest upon the occurrence of a Tax Event, cash interest on
the Securities shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been
paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the Option Exercise Date (as defined
below); provided that, if the Company elects to pay cash interest upon the
occurrence of a Tax Event as of a date less than 60 days prior to any Interest
Payment Date, the first payment of cash interest shall be made on the Interest
Payment Date next succeeding such Interest Payment Date.  The record date for
the payment of cash interest to Holders shall be the close of business on
October 15 and April 15 of each year (whether or not a Business Day);  provided
that cash interest payable at Stated Maturity or upon redemption or purchase
shall be payable to the person to whom principal is payable.  Cash interest on
the Securities shall be paid to registered holders of the Securities as of the
record date.  Any cash interest or accretion in value for any period shorter
than a full semi-arrival period shall be computed, using a 30-day month and any
period shorter than a month, using actual days elapsed.  Any cash interest or
accretion in value so computed shall be rounded to the nearest whole dollar.

                                     A-1-3
<PAGE>

          Tax Event.  From and after the date of the occurrence of a Tax Event,
the Company will have the option to elect to pay cash interest on the Securities
at a rate per annum equal to the yield to maturity in effect on the Option
Exercise Date (as defined below).  On the date of the Company's election to pay
cash interest following a Tax Event (the "Option Exercise Date"), the principal
amount of each Security shall be restated and shall equal the Accreted Value of
such Security as of the Option Exercise Date up to but not including the Option
Exercise Date (the "Restated Principal Amount").  Cash interest shall accrue on
the Restated Principal Amount from the Option Exercise Date and shall be subject
to a Rate Reset as described in the first paragraph of Section 1 above.

          A "Tax Event" means that the Company shall have received an opinion
from an independent tax counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that,
on or after October 30, 2001, as a result of (a) any amendment to, or change
(including any announced prospective change) in, the laws (or rules or
regulations thereunder) of the United States or any political subdivision or
taxing authority thereof or therein or (b) any amendment to, or change in, an
interpretation or application of such laws, rules or regulations by any
legislative body, court, governmental agency or regulatory authority, in each
case which amendment or change is enacted, promulgated, issued or announced or
which interpretation is issued or announced or which action is taken, on or
after October 30, 2001, there is more than an insubstantial risk that interest
(including amounts reflecting accretion in value of the Securities included in
the Accreted Value of the Securities) payable on the Securities either (i) would
not be deductible on a current accrual basis or (ii) would not be deductible
under any other method, in either case in whole or in part, by the Company (by
reason of deferral, disallowance, or otherwise) for United States Federal income
tax purposes.

2.  Method of Payment.
    -----------------

          Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Fourth Supplemental
Indenture, the Company shall make payments in cash, shares of Common Stock or a
combination thereof, as the case may be, in respect of the Redemption Price,
Purchase Price, Change of Control Purchase Price and principal of the Securities
at Stated Maturity to Holders who surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to
collect such payments in respect of the Securities. The Company shall pay cash
amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts, or by check payable in such
money.

          If the principal hereof, including any principal or Accreted Value
reflected in the Redemption Price, Purchase Price or Change of Control Purchase
Price, as applicable, or any portion thereof is not paid when due (whether upon
acceleration pursuant to Section 502 of the Indenture, upon the date set for
payment of the Redemption Price, Purchase Price, Change of Control Purchase
Price or principal upon the Stated Maturity of this Security), then in each such
case the overdue amount shall, to the extent permitted by law, bear cash
interest at the rate of ___% per annum, compounded semi-annually, which interest
shall accrue from the date of such overdue amount was originally due to the date
of payment of such amount, including interest thereon, has been made or duly
provided for.  All such interest shall be payable on demand.

                                     A-1-4
<PAGE>

3.  Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Security Registrar.
    -----------------------------------------------------

          Initially, The Chase Manhattan Bank (the "Trustee"), shall act as
Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Security Registrar.  The Company may appoint
and change any Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or Security Registrar without
notice, other than notice to the Trustee; provided that the Company shall
maintain at least one Paying Agent in the State of New York, City of New York,
Borough of Manhattan, which shall initially be an office or agency of the
Trustee. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates may
act as Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or Security Registrar.

4.  Indenture.
    ---------

          The Company issued the Securities under an indenture (the
"Indenture"), dated as of August 1, 1990, between the Company and the Trustee,
as supplemented and amended by the first supplemental indenture dated as of June
15, 1991, the second supplemental indenture dated as of May 6, 1997, the third
supplemental indenture dated as of April 22, 1998 and the fourth supplemental
indenture, dated as of October 30, 2001 (the "Fourth Supplemental Indenture"),
between the Company and the Trustee.  Capitalized terms used herein and not
defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture.  The terms
of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of
the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as in effect from
time to time.  The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders are
referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of those terms.

          The Securities are general unsecured obligations of the Company
initially limited to $490,000,000 aggregate principal amount at maturity,
subject to upward adjustment as provided herein (or $563,500,000 aggregate
principal amount at maturity, subject to upward adjustment as provided herein,
if the Underwriters exercise in full their over-allotment option granted under
the Underwriting Agreement) and will rank equally in right of payment to all the
Company's present and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.  The
Indenture does not limit other indebtedness of the Company, secured or
unsecured.

5.  Redemption at the Option of the Company.
    ---------------------------------------

          The Securities are redeemable at the option of the Company in whole or
in part, at any time or from time to time, on or after October 30, 2008 at a
redemption price per Security equal to the Redemption Price.  No sinking fund is
provided for the Securities.

          The table below shows Redemption Prices of a Security per $1,000
principal amount at maturity on October 30, 2008, at each following October 30
before maturity and at maturity on October 30, 2021, assuming that neither a
reset of the yield to maturity nor a Tax Event occurs.  These prices reflect the
Issue Price of a Security plus the accretion in value on that Security, based on
the yield to maturity from time to time in effect.  The Redemption Price of a
Security redeemed between those dates will include any additional increase in
the Accreted Value since the immediately preceding redemption date set forth
below up to but not including the redemption date.

          Notice of redemption must be mailed at least 15 days, but not more
than 60 days, before the Redemption Date to the Trustee and each Holder of
Securities to be redeemed at the Holder's address as shown on the register kept
by the Securities Registrar.

          If the Redemption Date is on or after an interest record date but on
or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, cash interest shall be payable to
the Holders in whose names the Securities are registered at the close of
business on the relevant record date.

          On and after the Redemption Date, cash interest shall cease to accrue
on Securities or any portion of them called for redemption and such Securities
or any portion thereof called for redemption shall cease to accrete in value;
provided that funds in the requisite amount are paid or made available for
payment on that date.

6.  Purchase By the Company at the Option of the Holder.
    ---------------------------------------------------

          Subject to the terms and conditions of the Fourth Supplemental
Indenture, the Company shall become obligated to purchase, at the option of the
Holder, all or any portion of the Securities held by such Holder on October 30,
2003, October 30, 2006, October 30, 2008, October 30, 2011 and October 30, 2016
(each a "Purchase Date") at a purchase price per Security equal to the Purchase
Price (provided that, if the Company has elected to pay cash interest upon the
occurrence of a Tax Event and if the Purchase Date is on or after an interest
record date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, interest shall
be payable to the Holders in whose names the Securities are registered at the
close of business on the relevant record date) upon delivery of a Purchase
Notice containing the information set forth in the Fourth Supplemental
Indenture, at any time from the opening of business on the date that is 20
Business Days prior to such Purchase Date until the close of business on the
fifth Business Day

                                     A-1-6
<PAGE>

prior to such Purchase Date, and upon delivery of the Securities to the Paying
Agent by the Holder as set forth in the Fourth Supplemental Indenture.

          The Purchase Price of a Security as of each of the Purchase Dates
(assuming that neither a reset of the yield to maturity nor a Tax Event occurs)
will be:



     Purchase Date                  Purchase Price
     -------------                  --------------

     October 30, 2003               $835.65
     October 30, 2006               $861.03
     October 30, 2008               $878.38
     October 30, 2011               $905.06
     October 30, 2016               $951.35


          On the first three Purchase Dates, the Purchase Price may be paid, at
the option of the Company, in cash or by the delivery of Common Stock, or any
combination thereof, in the manner described in Section 4.7 of the Fourth
Supplemental Indenture.  On the last two Purchase Dates, the Purchase Price the
Securities may be paid for in cash only.

          Holders have the right to withdraw any Purchase Notice by delivering
to the Paying Agent a written notice of withdrawal in accordance with the
provisions of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture.

          If cash or securities sufficient to pay the Purchase Price or the
Change of Control Purchase Price, as the case may be, of a Security or portion
thereof to be purchased as of the Purchase Date or the Change of Control
Purchase Date, as the case may be, are deposited with the Paying Agent or the
Stock Transfer Agent, as the case may be, on the Business Day following the
Purchase Date or the Change of Control Purchase Date, as the case may be, then,
immediately after the Purchase Date or the Change of Control Purchase Date, as
the case may be, such Security shall cease to be outstanding, the Security shall
cease to accrete in value and cash interest, if any, on such Security shall
cease to accrue, whether or not book-entry transfer is made or such Security is
delivered to the Paying Agent or the Stock Transfer Agent, as the case may be.
Thereafter, the Holder of such Security shall have no other rights other than
the right to receive the Purchase Price or the Change of Control Purchase Price,
as the case may be, upon surrender of such Security.

          If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of Securities shall have
the right, at the Holder's option, to require the Company to purchase all of
such Holder's Securities, or any portion thereof that is an integral multiple of
$1,000 principal amount at maturity (subject to upward adjustment in the event
of a Rate Reset) on the Change of Control Purchase Date selected by the Company
that is not less than 10 nor more than 30 days after the Final Surrender Date
(as defined below), at a purchase price per Security equal to the Change of
Control Purchase Price, which Change of Control Purchase Price shall be paid in
cash.

          Unless the Company shall have theretofore called for redemption all
the outstanding Securities, on or before the thirtieth day after the occurrence
of a Change of Control, the Company is obligated to mail or cause the Trustee to
mail to all Holders of record of the

                                     A-1-7
<PAGE>

Securities a Change of Control Company Notice describing, among other things,
the occurrence of such Change of Control and of the purchase right arising as a
result thereof. The Company must deliver a copy of the Change of Control Company
Notice to the Trustee and cause a copy of such notice to be published in a
newspaper of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New
York. To exercise the purchase option, a Holder of Securities must surrender, on
or before the date which, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable
law, is 60 days after the date of mailing of the Company Notice the Securities
with respect to which the right is being exercised, which, in the case of
Certificated Securities, must be duly endorsed for transfer to the Company.

7.  Conversion.
    ----------

          A Holder may surrender Securities for conversion into shares of Common
Stock on a Conversion Date if, as of such Conversion Date, the Closing Sale
Price of the Common Stock for at least 20 trading days in the 30-day period
ending on the trading day prior to the Conversion Date is more than the
Applicable Percentage then in effect of the Accreted Conversion Price per share
of Common Stock on such Conversion Date.  The "Accreted Conversion Price" per
share of Common Stock as of any day means the quotient of the Accreted Value of
a Security divided by the Conversion Rate on that day.  The "Applicable
Percentage" means (a) for any date before October 30, 2021, the percentage set
forth below opposite such date or opposite the pair of dates between which such
date falls, as the case may be, and (b) for October 30, 2021 or any date
thereafter, 110.0%.

<PAGE>

          A Holder may also surrender Securities for conversion into shares of
Common Stock if at any time Moody's Investor Service, Inc. has downgraded the
Company's senior long-term unsecured corporate credit rating to below Ba1 and
Standard & Poor's Rating Services has downgraded the Company's senior long-term
unsecured corporate credit rating to below BB+, respectively, for so long as
both such downgrades remain in effect.

          In addition, a Holder may surrender for conversion a Security which
has been called for redemption pursuant to Section 5 of this Security, even if
the foregoing provisions have not been satisfied, and such Securities may be
surrendered for conversion until the close of business on the Business Day
immediately prior to the Redemption Date; provided that if the Company shall
default in payment of the Redemption Price, a Holder may surrender Securities
for conversion on or after the related Redemption Date.

          In the event that the Company declares a dividend or distribution
described in Section 7.7 of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, or a dividend or
distribution described in Section 7.8 of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture where
the fair market value of such dividend or distribution per share of Common
Stock, as determined in the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, exceeds 15% of the
current Market Price of the Common Stock as of the trading day immediately prior
to the date of declaration, a Holder may surrender Securities for conversion
beginning on the date the Company gives notice to such Holder of such right,
which shall be not less than 20 days prior to the Ex-Dividend Time for such
dividend or distribution, and such Holder may surrender such Securities for
conversion at any time thereafter until the earlier of (i) the close of business
on the Business Day prior to the Ex-Dividend Time and (ii) the Company announces
that such distribution shall not take place.

          In the event that the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger,
transfer or lease of all or substantially all of its assets or a merger pursuant
to which the Common Stock would be converted into, or into the right to receive,
cash, securities or other assets as set forth in Section 7.14 of the Fourth
Supplemental Indenture, a Holder may surrender Securities for conversion at any
time beginning 15 days before the anticipated effective date of the transaction
until 15 days after the actual effective date of the transaction.

          Upon conversion, no payment or adjustment for accrued and unpaid cash
interest on or accretion in value of a converted Security or for dividends or
distributions on the Common Stock shall be made. If a Holder surrenders
Securities for conversion after the Company has exercised its option to pay cash
interest following a Tax Event, and during the period after any interest record
date and before the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Holder must pay the
Company the cash interest, if any, payable on such Securities, unless such
Securities have been called for redemption on a Redemption Date within such
period or on the Interest Payment Date.

          A Security in respect of which a Holder has delivered a Purchase
Notice exercising the option of such Holder to require the Company to purchase
such Security may be converted only if such notice of exercise is withdrawn in
accordance with the terms of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture.  A Security in
respect of which a Holder has delivered a Change of Control Purchase Notice
exercising the option of such Holder to require the Company to purchase such
Security may be not converted.

                                     A-1-9
<PAGE>

          The Conversion Rate is initially 17.7461 shares of Common Stock per
Security, subject to adjustment in certain events described in this Fourth
Supplemental Indenture.  A Holder that surrenders Securities for conversion
shall receive cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock.

          If the Company exercises its option to pay cash interest on, and
restate the principal amount at maturity of, the 2001 Convertible Securities
following the occurrence of a Tax Event pursuant to Section 1 of this Security,
a Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock upon
conversion of any 2001 Convertible Security that is equal to the number of
shares of Common Stock that such Holder would have received upon conversion of
such 2001 Convertible Security if the Company had not exercised such option.

          To convert a Security, a Holder must (1) complete and sign the
conversion notice on the reverse of the Security and deliver such notice to the
Conversion Agent, (2) surrender the Security to the Conversion Agent, (3)
furnish the appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by the
Security Registrar, the Company or Conversion Agent, and (4) pay any tax or duty
which may be payable in respect of any transfer involving the issue or delivery
of Common Stock in the name of a person other than the Holder thereof.  A Holder
may convert a portion of a Security if the portion is $1,000 principal amount at
maturity (subject to upward adjustment in the event of a Rate Reset) or an
integral multiple of $1,000 (or such increased amount).

          The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted for dividends or distributions
on shares of Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock or other Capital
Stock; subdivisions, combinations or reclassifications of Common Stock specified
in the Fourth Supplemental Indenture; distributions to all holders of Common
Stock of rights or warrants (excluding rights governed by the Company's
shareholders rights plan) specified in the Fourth Supplemental Indenture to
purchase shares of Common Stock for a period expiring within 60 days at less
than the current Market Price at the Time of Determination; and distributions to
such holders of assets or debt securities of the Company or certain rights to
purchase securities of the Company (excluding certain cash dividends or other
distributions).  However, no adjustment need be made if Holders may participate
in the transaction without conversion or in certain other cases specified in the
Fourth Supplemental Indenture.  The Company from time to time may voluntarily
increase the Conversion Rate.

          If the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger or transfer or
lease of all or substantially all of its assets pursuant to which the
outstanding shares of Common Stock are converted into, or into the right to
receive, cash, securities or other assets, then at the effective time of the
transaction, the right to convert a Security into shares of Common Stock will be
changed into a right to convert it into, or into the right to receive, as
applicable, the kind and amount of cash, securities or other property which the
Holder would have received if the Holder had converted that Holder's Security
immediately before the transaction (assuming, in a case in which the Company's
stockholders may exercise rights of election, that a Holder of Securities would
not have exercised any rights of election as to the stock, other securities or
other property or assets receivable in connection therewith and received per
share the kind and amount received per share by plurality of nonelecting
shares).

8.  Conversion Arrangement.
    ----------------------

          The Company has the option to designate a financial institution to
which Securities surrendered for conversion by a Holder of Securities shall be
initially offered by the Conversion Agent for exchange in lieu of the Company's
converting the Securities.  When a Holder surrenders Securities for conversion,
the Conversion Agent shall cause the Securities first to be offered to a
financial institution chosen by the Company for exchange lieu of conversion.
The Company expects that when the Securities are convertible, the designated
institution shall submit to the Conversion Agent a non-binding offer to accept
Securities surrendered for conversion.  In order to accept Securities
surrendered for conversion, the designated institution must agree to exchange
for such Securities a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of
such shares the Holder of such Securities would receive upon conversion, plus
cash for any fractional shares.  If the institution accepts any such Securities,
it shall deliver, or shall cause to be delivered on its behalf, the appropriate
number of shares of Common Stock and cash to the Stock Transfer Agent or the
Conversion Agent, as the case may be, and the Stock Transfer Agent or the
Conversion Agent, as the case may be, shall deliver those shares or cash, as the
case may be, to the Holder who surrendered the Securities.  The designation of
an institution to which Securities may be submitted for exchange does not
require the institution to accept any Securities from the Conversion Agent.  If
the designated institution declines to accept any Securities in whole or in
part, those Securities or parts of Securities shall be converted into shares of
Common Stock as the close of business on the Business Day following the Business
Day on which the Securities are surrendered for conversion.  If the designated
institution agrees to accept any Securities for exchange but does not timely
deliver the related shares of Common Stock and cash, the Securities shall be
converted and the shares of Common Stock and cash shall be delivered.  Any
Securities accepted for exchange by the designated institution shall remain
outstanding.

9.  Denominations, Transfer, Exchange.
    ---------------------------------

          The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations
of $1,000 principal amount at maturity (subject to upward adjustment in the
event of a Rate Reset) and integral multiples of $1,000 (or such increased
amount).  A Holder may register the transfer of or exchange Securities in
accordance with the Indenture.  The Registrar may require a Holder, among other
things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay
any taxes or other governmental charges that may be imposed in relation thereto
by law or permitted by the Indenture.

10.  Amendment, Supplement, Waiver.
     -----------------------------

          Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Securities may be
amended or supplemented, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Securities, and any existing
default or compliance with any provisions may be waived with the consent of the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the
Securities.  Without the consent of any Holders, the Indenture or the Securities
may be amended, inter alia, to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to
                ----- ----
provide for assumption of Company obligations to Holders in the case of a merger
or acquisition, to make any change that does not materially adversely affect the
rights of any Holder.

11.  Defaults and Remedies.
     ---------------------

          An Event of Default is default in the payment by the Company of
accrued and unpaid cash interest (including any cash interest payable after any
election by the Company to restate the principal amount of the Securities and
pay cash interest on the Securities following the occurrence of a Tax Event) on
the Securities continued for 30 days, default by the Company in payment of
principal (or, if the Company has elected to restate the principal amount of the
Securities and pay cash interest on the Securities following the occurrence of a
Tax Event, the Restated Principal Amount) of the Securities at the Stated
Maturity, failure by the Company for 90 days after written notice (as specified
in the Indenture) to it to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements
in the Indenture and specified events of bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization with respect to the Company.  If an Event of Default occurs and
is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal
amount at maturity of the Securities may declare an amount equal to the Accreted
Value of the Securities (or, if the Company has elected to restate the principal
amount of the Securities and pay additional cash interest on the Securities
following the occurrence of a Tax Event, the Restated Principal Amount) in
respect of the Securities to be immediately due and payable.

          Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as
provided in the Indenture.  The Trustee may require security or indemnity
satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities.  Subject
to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount at
maturity of the Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust
or power.  The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Event
of Default (except an Event of Default in payment of principal (or, if the
Company has elected to restate the principal amount of the Securities and pay
additional cash interest following the occurrence of a Tax Event, the Restated
Principal Amount) or accrued and unpaid interest) if it determines that
withholding notice is in their interests.  The Company must furnish an annual
compliance certificate to the Trustee.

12.  Trustee Dealings With Company.
     -----------------------------

          The Chase Manhattan Bank, the Trustee and any agent under the
Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept
deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may
otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not Trustee or
agent.

13.  No Recourse Against Others.
     --------------------------

          A director, officer, employee or shareholder, as such, of the Company
shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the
Securities or the Indenture (as applicable) or for any claim based on, in
respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.  Each Holder by
accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability.  The waiver and
release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

            Zero Coupon Convertible Debentures due October 30, 2021

1.  Accretion in Value and Cash Interest.
    ------------------------------------

          Accretion and Reset;  Cash Interest.  Except as provided in this
Section 1, this Security shall not bear cash interest.  This Security shall
initially represent the Issue Price and shall accrete in value such that the
initial yield to maturity shall be 1.00% per annum through the Stated Maturity.
The accretion rate in effect with respect to this Security shall at any time
equal the yield to maturity then in effect for this Security paid.  The yield to
maturity (or, if the Company has elected to restate the principal amount of the
Securities and pay cash interest on the Securities following the occurrence of a
Tax Event, the cash interest rate) on this Security shall be reset on October
30, 2007, October 30, 2011 and October 30, 2016 (each, a "Reset Date") to a rate
per annum equal to the Five-Year Treasury Rate minus 2.80%.  In no event,
however, shall the yield to maturity (or the cash interest rate, if the
principal amount of the Securities shall have been restated following the
occurrence of a Tax Event) be reset below the initial rate per annum or above
3.00% per annum.  The principal amount of this Security at any time shall equal
the Accreted Value (or, if the Company has elected to restate the principal
amount of this Security and pay cash interest on this Security following the
occurrence of a Tax Event, the Restated Principal Amount) of this Security.

          Cash Interest and Accretion Computation and Method of Payment.  Any
cash interest payable hereunder following the occurrence of a Tax Event and any
accretion in value of the Securities shall be computed based on a 360-day year
of twelve 30-day months and semi-annual periods ending on October 30 and April
30 of each year.  Cash interest (if the principal amount of the Securities shall
have been restated following the occurrence of a Tax Event) shall be payable
semi-annually in arrears on (but excluding) each October 30 and April 30 (each
an "Interest Payment Date") through the Stated Maturity unless the Securities
are earlier converted, redeemed or purchased by the Company or otherwise repaid.
The Securities shall accrete in value from October 30, 2001.  If the Company
elects to pay cash interest upon the occurrence of a Tax Event, cash interest on
the Securities shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been
paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the Option Exercise Date (as defined
below); provided that, if the Company elects to pay cash interest upon the
occurrence of a Tax Event as of a date less than 60 days prior to any Interest
Payment Date, the first payment of cash interest shall be made on the Interest
Payment Date next succeeding such Interest Payment Date.  The record date for
the payment of cash interest to Holders shall be the close of business on
October 15 and April 15 of each year (whether or not a Business Day);  provided
that cash interest payable at Stated Maturity or upon redemption or purchase
shall be payable to the person to whom principal is payable.  Cash interest on
the Securities shall be paid to registered holders of the Securities as of the
record date.  Any cash interest or accretion in value for any period shorter
than a full semi-arrival period shall be computed, using a 30-day month and any
period shorter than a month, using actual days elapsed.  Any cash interest or
accretion in value so computed shall be rounded to the nearest whole dollar.

                                     A-2-3
<PAGE>

          Tax Event.  From and after the date of the occurrence of a Tax Event,
the Company will have the option to elect to pay cash interest on the Securities
at a rate per annum equal to the yield to maturity in effect on the Option
Exercise Date (as defined below).  On the date of the Company's election to pay
cash interest following a Tax Event (the "Option Exercise Date"), the principal
amount of each Security shall be restated and shall equal the Accreted Value of
such Security as of the Option Exercise Date up to but not including the Option
Exercise Date (the "Restated Principal Amount").  Cash interest shall accrue on
the Restated Principal Amount from the Option Exercise Date and shall be subject
to a Rate Reset as described in the first paragraph of Section 1 above.

          A "Tax Event" means that the Company shall have received an opinion
from an independent tax counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that,
on or after October 30, 2001, as a result of (a) any amendment to, or change
(including any announced prospective change) in, the laws (or rules or
regulations thereunder) of the United States or any political subdivision or
taxing authority thereof or therein or (b) any amendment to, or change in, an
interpretation or application of such laws, rules or regulations by any
legislative body, court, governmental agency or regulatory authority, in each
case which amendment or change is enacted, promulgated, issued or announced or
which interpretation is issued or announced or which action is taken, on or
after October 30, 2001, there is more than an insubstantial risk that interest
(including amounts reflecting accretion in value of the Securities included in
the Accreted Value of the Securities) payable on the Securities either (i) would
not be deductible on a current accrual basis or (ii) would not be deductible
under any other method, in either case in whole or in part, by the Company (by
reason of deferral, disallowance, or otherwise) for United States Federal income
tax purposes.

2.  Method of Payment.
    -----------------

          Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Fourth Supplemental
Indenture, the Company shall make payments in cash, shares of Common Stock or a
combination thereof, as the case may be, in respect of the Redemption Price,
Purchase Price, Change of Control Purchase Price and principal of the Securities
at Stated Maturity to Holders who surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to
collect such payments in respect of the Securities. The Company shall pay cash
amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts, or by check payable in such
money.

          If the principal hereof, including any principal or Accreted Value
reflected in the Redemption Price, Purchase Price or Change of Control Purchase
Price, as applicable, or any portion thereof is not paid when due (whether upon
acceleration pursuant to Section 502 of the Indenture, upon the date set for
payment of the Redemption Price, Purchase Price, Change of Control Purchase
Price or principal upon the Stated Maturity of this Security), then in each such
case the overdue amount shall, to the extent permitted by law, bear cash
interest at the rate of ___% per annum, compounded semi-annually, which interest
shall accrue from the date of such overdue amount was originally due to the date
of payment of such amount, including interest thereon, has been made or duly
provided for.  All such interest shall be payable on demand.

                                     A-2-4
<PAGE>

3.  Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Security Registrar.
    -----------------------------------------------------

          Initially, The Chase Manhattan Bank (the "Trustee"), shall act as
Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Security Registrar.  The Company may appoint
and change any Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or Security Registrar without
notice, other than notice to the Trustee; provided that the Company shall
maintain at least one Paying Agent in the State of New York, City of New York,
Borough of Manhattan, which shall initially be an office or agency of the
Trustee. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates may
act as Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or Security Registrar.

4.  Indenture.
    ---------

          The Company issued the Securities under an indenture (the
"Indenture"), dated as of August 1, 1990, between the Company and the Trustee,
as supplemented and amended by the first supplemental indenture dated as of June
15, 1991, the second supplemental indenture dated as of May 6, 1997, the third
supplemental indenture dated as of April 22, 1998 and the fourth supplemental
indenture, dated as of October 30, 2001 (the "Fourth Supplemental Indenture"),
between the Company and the Trustee.  Capitalized terms used herein and not
defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture.  The terms
of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of
the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as in effect from
time to time.  The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders are
referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of those terms.

          The Securities are general unsecured obligations of the Company
initially limited to $490,000,000 aggregate principal amount at maturity,
subject to upward adjustment as provided herein (or $563,500,000 aggregate
principal amount at maturity, subject to upward adjustment as provided herein,
if the Underwriters exercise in full their over-allotment option granted under
the Underwriting Agreement) and will rank equally in right of payment to all the
Company's present and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.  The
Indenture does not limit other indebtedness of the Company, secured or
unsecured.

5.  Redemption at the Option of the Company.
    ---------------------------------------

          The Securities are redeemable at the option of the Company in whole or
in part, at any time or from time to time, on or after October 30, 2008 at a
redemption price per Security equal to the Redemption Price.  No sinking fund is
provided for the Securities.

          The table below shows Redemption Prices of a Security per $1,000
principal amount at maturity on October 30, 2008, at each following October 30
before maturity and at maturity on October 30, 2021, assuming that neither a
reset of the yield to maturity nor a Tax Event occurs. These prices reflect the
Issue Price of a Security plus the accretion in value on that Security, based on
the yield to maturity from time to time in effect. The Redemption Price of a
Security redeemed between those dates will include any additional increase in
the Accreted Value since the immediately preceding redemption date set forth
below up to but not including the redemption date.

</TABLE>

          Notice of redemption must be mailed at least 15 days, but not more
than 60 days, before the Redemption Date to the Trustee and each Holder of
Securities to be redeemed at the Holder's address as shown on the register kept
by the Securities Registrar.

          If the Redemption Date is on or after an interest record date but on
or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, cash interest shall be payable to
the Holders in whose names the Securities are registered at the close of
business on the relevant record date.

          On and after the Redemption Date, cash interest shall cease to accrue
on Securities or any portion of them called for redemption and such Securities
or any portion thereof called for redemption shall cease to accrete in value;
provided that funds in the requisite amount are paid or made available for
payment on that date.

6.  Purchase By the Company at the Option of the Holder.
    ---------------------------------------------------

          Subject to the terms and conditions of the Fourth Supplemental
Indenture, the Company shall become obligated to purchase, at the option of the
Holder, all or any portion of the Securities held by such Holder on October 30,
2003, October 30, 2006, October 30, 2008, October 30, 2011 and October 30, 2016
(each a "Purchase Date") at a purchase price per Security equal to the Purchase
Price (provided that, if the Company has elected to pay cash interest upon the
occurrence of a Tax Event and if the Purchase Date is on or after an interest
record date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, interest shall
be payable to the Holders in whose names the Securities are registered at the
close of business on the relevant record date) upon delivery of a Purchase
Notice containing the information set forth in the Fourth Supplemental
Indenture, at any time from the opening of business on the date that is 20

                                     A-2-6
<PAGE>

Business Days prior to such Purchase Date until the close of business on the
fifth Business Day prior to such Purchase Date, and upon delivery of the
Securities to the Paying Agent by the Holder as set forth in the Fourth
Supplemental Indenture.

          The Purchase Price of a Security as of each of the Purchase Dates
(assuming that neither a reset of the yield to maturity nor a Tax Event occurs)
will be:

     Purchase Date            Purchase Price
     -------------            --------------

     October 30, 2003           $835.65
     October 30, 2006           $861.03
     October 30, 2008           $878.38
     October 30, 2011           $905.06
     October 30, 2016           $951.35

          On the first three Purchase Dates, the Purchase Price may be paid, at
the option of the Company, in cash or by the delivery of Common Stock, or any
combination thereof, in the manner described in Section 4.7 of the Fourth
Supplemental Indenture.  On the last two Purchase Dates, the Purchase Price the
Securities may be paid for in cash only.

          Holders have the right to withdraw any Purchase Notice by delivering
to the Paying Agent a written notice of withdrawal in accordance with the
provisions of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture.

          If cash or securities sufficient to pay the Purchase Price or the
Change of Control Purchase Price, as the case may be, of a Security or portion
thereof to be purchased as of the Purchase Date or the Change of Control
Purchase Date, as the case may be, are deposited with the Paying Agent or the
Stock Transfer Agent, as the case may be, on the Business Day following the
Purchase Date or the Change of Control Purchase Date, as the case may be, then,
immediately after the Purchase Date or the Change of Control Purchase Date, as
the case may be, such Security shall cease to be outstanding, the Security shall
cease to accrete in value and cash interest, if any, on such Security shall
cease to accrue, whether or not book-entry transfer is made or such Security is
delivered to the Paying Agent or the Stock Transfer Agent, as the case may be.
Thereafter, the Holder of such Security shall have no other rights other than
the right to receive the Purchase Price or the Change of Control Purchase Price,
as the case may be, upon surrender of such Security.

          If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of Securities shall have
the right, at the Holder's option, to require the Company to purchase all of
such Holder's Securities, or any portion thereof that is an integral multiple of
$1,000 principal amount at maturity (subject to upward adjustment in the event
of a Rate Reset) on the Change of Control Purchase Date selected by the Company
that is not less than 10 nor more than 30 days after the Final Surrender Date
(as defined below), at a purchase price per Security equal to the Change of
Control Purchase Price, which Change of Control Purchase Price shall be paid in
cash.

          Unless the Company shall have theretofore called for redemption all
the outstanding Securities, on or before the thirtieth day after the occurrence
of a Change of Control,

                                     A-2-7
<PAGE>

the Company is obligated to mail or cause the Trustee to mail to all Holders of
record of the Securities a Change of Control Company Notice describing, among
other things, the occurrence of such Change of Control and of the purchase right
arising as a result thereof. The Company must deliver a copy of the Change of
Control Company Notice to the Trustee and cause a copy of such notice to be
published in a newspaper of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York. To exercise the purchase option, a Holder of Securities must
surrender, on or before the date which, subject to any contrary requirements of
applicable law, is 60 days after the date of mailing of the Company Notice the
Securities with respect to which the right is being exercised, which, in the
case of Certificated Securities, must be duly endorsed for transfer to the
Company.

7.  Conversion.
    ----------

          A Holder may surrender Securities for conversion into shares of Common
Stock on a Conversion Date if, as of such Conversion Date, the Closing Sale
Price of the Common Stock for at least 20 trading days in the 30-day period
ending on the trading day prior to the Conversion Date is more than the
Applicable Percentage then in effect of the Accreted Conversion Price per share
of Common Stock on such Conversion Date.  The "Accreted Conversion Price" per
share of Common Stock as of any day means the quotient of the Accreted Value of
a Security divided by the Conversion Rate on that day.  The "Applicable
Percentage" means (a) for any date before October 30, 2021, the percentage set
forth below opposite such date or opposite the pair of dates between which such
date falls, as the case may be, and (b) for October 30, 2021 or any date
thereafter, 110.0%.

<PAGE>

          A Holder may also surrender Securities for conversion into shares of
Common Stock if at any time Moody's Investor Service, Inc. has downgraded the
Company's senior long-term unsecured corporate credit rating to below Ba1 and
Standard & Poor's Rating Services has downgraded the Company's senior long-term
unsecured corporate credit rating to below BB+, respectively, for so long as
both such downgrades remain in effect.

          In addition, a Holder may surrender for conversion a Security which
has been called for redemption pursuant to Section 5 of this Security, even if
the foregoing provisions have not been satisfied, and such Securities may be
surrendered for conversion until the close of business on the Business Day
immediately prior to the Redemption Date; provided that if the Company shall
default in payment of the Redemption Price, a Holder may surrender Securities
for conversion on or after the related Redemption Date.

          In the event that the Company declares a dividend or distribution
described in Section 7.7 of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, or a dividend or
distribution described in Section 7.8 of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture where
the fair market value of such dividend or distribution per share of Common
Stock, as determined in the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, exceeds 15% of the
current Market Price of the Common Stock as of the trading day immediately prior
to the date of declaration, a Holder may surrender Securities for conversion
beginning on the date the Company gives notice to such Holder of such right,
which shall be not less than 20 days prior to the Ex-Dividend Time for such
dividend or distribution, and such Holder may surrender such Securities for
conversion at any time thereafter until the earlier of (i) the close of business
on the Business Day prior to the Ex-Dividend Time and (ii) the Company announces
that such distribution shall not take place.

          In the event that the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger,
transfer or lease of all or substantially all of its assets or a merger pursuant
to which the Common Stock would be converted into, or into the right to receive,
cash, securities or other assets as set forth in Section 7.14 of the Fourth
Supplemental Indenture, a Holder may surrender Securities for conversion at any
time beginning 15 days before the anticipated effective date of the transaction
until 15 days after the actual effective date of the transaction.

          Upon conversion, no payment or adjustment for accrued and unpaid cash
interest on or accretion in value of a converted Security or for dividends or
distributions on the Common Stock shall be made. If a Holder surrenders
Securities for conversion after the Company has exercised its option to pay cash
interest following a Tax Event, and during the period after any interest record
date and before the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Holder must pay the
Company the cash interest, if any, payable on such Securities, unless such
Securities have been called for redemption on a Redemption Date within such
period or on the Interest Payment Date.

          A Security in respect of which a Holder has delivered a Purchase
Notice exercising the option of such Holder to require the Company to purchase
such Security may be converted only if such notice of exercise is withdrawn in
accordance with the terms of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture.  A Security in
respect of which a Holder has delivered a Change of Control Purchase Notice
exercising the option of such Holder to require the Company to purchase such
Security may be not converted.

                                     A-2-9
<PAGE>

          The Conversion Rate is initially 17.7461 shares of Common Stock per
Security, subject to adjustment in certain events described in this Fourth
Supplemental Indenture.  A Holder that surrenders Securities for conversion
shall receive cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock.

          If the Company exercises its option to pay cash interest on, and
restate the principal amount at maturity of, the 2001 Convertible Securities
following the occurrence of a Tax Event pursuant to Section 1 of this Security,
a Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock upon
conversion of any 2001 Convertible Security that is equal to the number of
shares of Common Stock that such Holder would have received upon conversion of
such 2001 Convertible Security if the Company had not exercised such option.

          To convert a Security, a Holder must (1) complete and sign the
conversion notice on the reverse of the Security and deliver such notice to the
Conversion Agent, (2) surrender the Security to the Conversion Agent, (3)
furnish the appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by the
Security Registrar, the Company or Conversion Agent, and (4) pay any tax or duty
which may be payable in respect of any transfer involving the issue or delivery
of Common Stock in the name of a person other than the Holder thereof.  A Holder
may convert a portion of a Security if the portion is $1,000 principal amount at
maturity (subject to upward adjustment in the event of a Rate Reset) or an
integral multiple of $1,000 (or such increased amount).

          The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted for dividends or distributions
on shares of Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock or other Capital
Stock; subdivisions, combinations or reclassifications of Common Stock specified
in the Fourth Supplemental Indenture; distributions to all holders of Common
Stock of rights or warrants (excluding rights governed by the Company's
shareholders rights plan) specified in the Fourth Supplemental Indenture to
purchase shares of Common Stock for a period expiring within 60 days at less
than the current Market Price at the Time of Determination; and distributions to
such holders of assets or debt securities of the Company or certain rights to
purchase securities of the Company (excluding certain cash dividends or other
distributions).  However, no adjustment need be made if Holders may participate
in the transaction without conversion or in certain other cases specified in the
Fourth Supplemental Indenture.  The Company from time to time may voluntarily
increase the Conversion Rate.

          If the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger or transfer or
lease of all or substantially all of its assets pursuant to which the
outstanding shares of Common Stock are converted into, or into the right to
receive, cash, securities or other assets, then at the effective time of the
transaction, the right to convert a Security into shares of Common Stock will be
changed into a right to convert it into, or into the right to receive, as
applicable, the kind and amount of cash, securities or other property which the
Holder would have received if the Holder had converted that Holder's Security
immediately before the transaction (assuming, in a case in which the Company's
stockholders may exercise rights of election, that a Holder of Securities would
not have exercised any rights of election as to the stock, other securities or
other property or assets receivable in connection therewith and received per
share the kind and amount received per share by plurality of nonelecting
shares).

8.  Conversion Arrangement.
    ----------------------

          The Company has the option to designate a financial institution to
which Securities surrendered for conversion by a Holder of Securities shall be
initially offered by the Conversion Agent for exchange in lieu of the Company's
converting the Securities.  When a Holder surrenders Securities for conversion,
the Conversion Agent shall cause the Securities first to be offered to a
financial institution chosen by the Company for exchange lieu of conversion.
The Company expects that when the Securities are convertible, the designated
institution shall submit to the Conversion Agent a non-binding offer to accept
Securities surrendered for conversion.  In order to accept Securities
surrendered for conversion, the designated institution must agree to exchange
for such Securities a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of
such shares the Holder of such Securities would receive upon conversion, plus
cash for any fractional shares.  If the institution accepts any such Securities,
it shall deliver, or shall cause to be delivered on its behalf, the appropriate
number of shares of Common Stock and cash to the Stock Transfer Agent or the
Conversion Agent, as the case may be, and the Stock Transfer Agent or the
Conversion Agent, as the case may be, shall deliver those shares or cash, as the
case may be, to the Holder who surrendered the Securities.  The designation of
an institution to which Securities may be submitted for exchange does not
require the institution to accept any Securities from the Conversion Agent.  If
the designated institution declines to accept any Securities in whole or in
part, those Securities or parts of Securities shall be converted into shares of
Common Stock as the close of business on the Business Day following the Business
Day on which the Securities are surrendered for conversion.  If the designated
institution agrees to accept any Securities for exchange but does not timely
deliver the related shares of Common Stock and cash, the Securities shall be
converted and the shares of Common Stock and cash shall be delivered.  Any
Securities accepted for exchange by the designated institution shall remain
outstanding.

9.  Denominations, Transfer, Exchange.
    ---------------------------------

          The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations
of $1,000 principal amount at maturity (subject to upward adjustment in the
event of a Rate Reset) and integral multiples of $1,000 (or such increased
amount).  A Holder may register the transfer of or exchange Securities in
accordance with the Indenture.  The Registrar may require a Holder, among other
things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay
any taxes or other governmental charges that may be imposed in relation thereto
by law or permitted by the Indenture.

10.  Amendment, Supplement, Waiver.
     -----------------------------

          Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Securities may be
amended or supplemented, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Securities, and any existing
default or compliance with any provisions may be waived with the consent of the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the
Securities.  Without the consent of any Holders, the Indenture or the Securities
may be amended, inter alia, to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to
                ----- ----
provide for assumption of Company obligations to Holders in the case of a merger
or acquisition, to make any change that does not materially adversely affect the
rights of any Holder.

11.  Defaults and Remedies.
     ---------------------

          An Event of Default is default in the payment by the Company of
accrued and unpaid cash interest (including any cash interest payable after any
election by the Company to restate the principal amount of the Securities and
pay cash interest on the Securities following the occurrence of a Tax Event) on
the Securities continued for 30 days, default by the Company in payment of
principal (or, if the Company has elected to restate the principal amount of the
Securities and pay cash interest on the Securities following the occurrence of a
Tax Event, the Restated Principal Amount) of the Securities at the Stated
Maturity, failure by the Company for 90 days after written notice (as specified
in the Indenture) to it to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements
in the Indenture and specified events of bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization with respect to the Company.  If an Event of Default occurs and
is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal
amount at maturity of the Securities may declare an amount equal to the Accreted
Value of the Securities (or, if the Company has elected to restate the principal
amount of the Securities and pay additional cash interest on the Securities
following the occurrence of a Tax Event, the Restated Principal Amount) in
respect of the Securities to be immediately due and payable.

          Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as
provided in the Indenture.  The Trustee may require security or indemnity
satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities.  Subject
to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount at
maturity of the Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust
or power.  The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Event
of Default (except an Event of Default in payment of principal (or, if the
Company has elected to restate the principal amount of the Securities and pay
additional cash interest following the occurrence of a Tax Event, the Restated
Principal Amount) or accrued and unpaid interest) if it determines that
withholding notice is in their interests.  The Company must furnish an annual
compliance certificate to the Trustee.

12.  Trustee Dealings With Company.
     -----------------------------

          The Chase Manhattan Bank, the Trustee and any agent under the
Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept
deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may
otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not Trustee or
agent.

13.  No Recourse Against Others.
     --------------------------

          A director, officer, employee or shareholder, as such, of the Company
shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the
Securities or the Indenture (as applicable) or for any claim based on, in
respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.  Each Holder by
accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability.  The waiver and
release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

14.  Authentication.
     --------------

          This Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual
signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent on the face hereof.
