the Company or a Guarantor in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of
such action is made upon such Security.  Any consent or waiver of the Holder
of any Security shall be irrevocable for a period of six months after the
date of execution thereof, but otherwise any such Holder or subsequent Holder

other Act as to his Security or portion of his Security; provided, however,

provided that the Company may not set a record date for, and the provisions
of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of
any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in the next
paragraph. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders
of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no
other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not
such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such
action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the
applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of
Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this
paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record
date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant
to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall
automatically and with no action by any Person be canceled and of no effect),
and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any
action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding
Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly
after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its
own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by
Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in
writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner
set forth in Section 1.7.

declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 5.2, (iii) any request to
institute proceedings referred to in Section 5.7(2) or (iv) any direction
referred to in Section 5.12, in each case with respect to Securities of such
series. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of
Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date, and no other
Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or
direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date;
provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or
prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal
amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing
in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a
new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been
set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set
shall automatically and with no action by any Person be canceled and


                                       12

<PAGE>

of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render
ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of
Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken.
Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee,
at the Company's expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed
action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company
in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner
set forth in Section 1.7.

      With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party
hereto which sets such record dates may designate any day as the "Expiration
Date" and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or
later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of
the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in
writing, and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the
manner set forth in Section 1.7, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date.
If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set
pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which set such record date shall
be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date
as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change
the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the

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

      Section 1.6 Notices, etc., to Trustee and Company.

      Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture
to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

          (1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company or any Guarantor shall
be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in
writing (or by facsimile transmissions, provided that oral confirmation of
receipt shall have been received) to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Department, or

          (2) the Company or any Guarantor by the Trustee or by any Holder shall
be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly
provided) if in writing and furnished by certified mail, return receipt
requested, personally delivered or furnished via overnight courier to the
Company addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the
first paragraph of this instrument or at any other address previously furnished
in writing to the Trustee by the Company, Attention: Chief Financial Officer.

      Section 1.7 Notice to Holders; Waiver.

      Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such
notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly
provided) if in writing and mailed, first-


                                       13

<PAGE>

class postage prepaid, or delivered by hand or overnight courier to each Holder
affected by such event, at its address as it appears in the Security Register,
not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date
(if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. Neither the failure to mail
or deliver by hand or overnight courier any notice, nor any defect in any notice
so mailed or delivered by hand or overnight courier, to any particular Holder
shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where
this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in
writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after
the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of
notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be
a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such
waiver.

      In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason
of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give notice to Holders of
Securities by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval
of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose
hereunder.  In any case in which notice to Holders of Securities is given by
mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice
so mailed, to any particular Holder of a Security, shall affect the
sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Securities.

      Section 1.8 Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.

      If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision
of the Trust Indenture Act or another provision hereof required to be
included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture
Act, the latter provision shall control.  If any provision of this Indenture
modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act, which may be
so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to
this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be.

      Section 1.9 Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

      The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are
for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

its successors and assigns, whether or not so expressed. All agreements of
the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successor.  All agreements of
any Guarantor in this Indenture shall bind its successors, except as
otherwise provided by the terms hereof.

      Section 1.11 Separability Clause.

invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability
of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby.

GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK, BUT WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW
TO THE EXTENT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE
REQUIRED THEREBY.

      Section 1.14 Legal Holidays.

      Unless otherwise provided with respect to any Security or Securities
pursuant to Section 3.1, in any case where any Interest Payment Date,
Redemption Date, sinking fund payment date, or Stated Maturity or Maturity or
other payment date of any Security or the last date on which a Holder has the
right to convert a Security at a particular conversion price shall not be a
Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other
provision of this Indenture or of the Securities (other than a provision of
any Security which specifically states that such provision shall apply in
lieu of this Section)) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any)
or, if applicable to a particular series of Securities, conversion need not
be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next
succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and
effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, at the
Stated Maturity or on such last day for conversion, as the case may be.

the Securities or implied

therefrom; and that any and all such personal liability of every name and
nature, either at common law or in equity or by constitution or statute, of, and
any and all such rights and claims against, every such incorporator, subscriber
to the capital stock, stockholder, employee, agent, officer or director as such,

                                 SECURITY FORMS

      Section 2.1 Forms Generally.

      The Securities of each series shall be in such form or forms as shall be
established by or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions and set forth in
such Board Resolutions, or, to the extent established pursuant to, rather
than set forth in, such Board Resolutions, an Officers' Certificate detailing
such establishment, or in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in each
case with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other
variations as are required or permitted by this Indenture, and may have such
letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or
endorsements placed thereon as may be required to comply with any applicable
law or with any rules or regulations pursuant thereto, or any rules of any
securities exchange or Depositary therefor or as may, consistently herewith,

their execution thereof. If the form of Securities of any series is
established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, or, to the extent
established pursuant to, rather than set forth in, such Board Resolutions, an
Officers' Certificate detailing such establishment, a copy of an appropriate
record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant
Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the

                                    [Trustee], as Trustee
                                By:

      Section 2.3 Global Securities.

      If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 3.1 that the
Securities of a particular series are to be issued in whole or in part in the
form of one or more Global Securities, then the Company shall execute and the
Trustee shall, in accordance with Section 3.3 and the Company Order delivered
to the Trustee thereunder, authenticate and deliver such Global Security or
Securities, which (i) shall represent, and shall be denominated in an amount
equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such
series to be represented by such Global Security or Securities, (ii) may
provide that the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities represented
thereby may from time to time be increased or reduced to reflect exchanges,
(iii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global
Security or Securities or its nominee, (iv) shall be delivered by the Trustee
to the Depositary or pursuant to the Depositary's instruction and (v) shall
bear a legend in accordance with the requirements of the Depositary.

           Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section or of
Section 3.5, except as contemplated by the provisions of this Section 2.3
below, unless the terms of a Global Security expressly permit such Global
Security to be exchanged in whole or in part for individual Securities, a
Global Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part and in the
manner provided in Section 3.5, only to a nominee of the Depositary for such
Global Security, or to the Depositary, or to a successor Depositary for such
Global Security selected or approved by the Company, or to a nominee of such
successor Depositary.

       If at any time the Depositary for a Global Security notifies the
Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as the Depositary for such
Global Security or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities for such
series shall no longer be eligible or in good standing under the Exchange
Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, the Company shall appoint a
successor Depositary with respect to such Global Security. If a successor
Depositary for such Global Security is not appointed by the Company within
90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such
ineligibility, the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a
Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Securities of such
series in the form of definitive certificates in exchange for such Global
Security, will authenticate and deliver Securities of such series in the form
of definitive certificates of like tenor and terms in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security in exchange for


                                       17

<PAGE>

such Global Security. Such Securities will be issued to and registered in the
name of such Person or Persons as are specified by the Depositary.

      The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that
the Securities of any series issued or issuable in the form of one or more
Global Securities shall no longer be represented by such Global Security or
Securities. In any such event the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon
receipt of a Company Request for the  authentication and delivery of
Securities in the form of definitive certificates in exchange in whole or in
part for such Global Security, will authenticate and deliver without service
charge to each Person specified by the Depositary Securities in the form of
definitive certificates of like tenor and terms in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Security representing
such series, or the aggregate principal amount of such Global Securities
representing such series, in exchange for such Global Security or Securities.

      If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to
Securities issued or issuable in the form of a Global Security, the
Depositary for such Global Security may surrender such Global Security in
exchange in whole or in part for Securities in the form of definitive
certificates of like tenor and terms on such terms as are acceptable to the
Company and such Depositary. Thereupon the Company shall execute, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, without service charge, (A) to each
Person specified by such Depositary a new Security or Securities of the same
series of like tenor and terms and any authorized denomination as requested
by such Person in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for
such Person's beneficial interest in the Global Security and (B) to such
Depositary a new Global Security of like tenor and terms and in an authorized
denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the principal amount of
the surrendered Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of
Securities delivered to Holders thereof.

      In any exchange provided for in any of the preceding three paragraphs,
the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
Securities in the form of definitive certificates in authorized
denominations. Upon the exchange of the entire principal amount of a Global
Security for Securities in the form of definitive certificates, such Global
Security shall be canceled by the Trustee. Except as provided in the
immediately preceding subparagraph, Securities issued in exchange for a
Global Security pursuant to this Section shall be registered in such names
and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Global
Security, acting pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect
participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. Provided that the
Company and the Trustee have so agreed, the Trustee shall deliver such
Securities to the Persons in whose names the Securities are so to be
registered.

      Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the principal amount
thereof, or any increase or decrease in such principal amount, or changes in
the rights of Holders of Outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be
made in such manner and by such Person or Persons as shall be specified in or
pursuant to any applicable letter of representations or other arrangement
entered into with, or procedures of, the Depositary with respect to such
Global Security or in the Company Order delivered or to be delivered pursuant
to Section 3.3 or Section 3.4 with respect thereto. Subject to the provisions
of Section 3.3 and, if applicable, Section 3.4, the Trustee shall deliver and
redeliver any such Global Security in the manner and upon instructions given
by the Person or Persons specified in or pursuant to any applicable letter of
representations or other


                                       18

<PAGE>

arrangement entered into with, or procedures of, the Depositary with respect to
such Global Security or in any applicable Company Order. If a Company Order
pursuant to Section 3.3 or Section 3.4 is so delivered, any instructions by the
Company with respect to such Global Security contained therein shall be in
writing but need not be accompanied by or contained in an Officers' Certificate
and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel.

      The Depositary or, if there be one, its nominee, shall be the Holder of
a Global Security for all purposes under this Indenture; and beneficial
owners with respect to such Global Security shall hold their interests
pursuant to applicable procedures of such Depositary. The Company, each
Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Security Registrar shall be
entitled to deal with such Depositary for all purposes of this Indenture
relating to such Global Security (including the payment of principal,
premium, if any, and interest and any Additional Amounts with respect to such
Global Security and the giving of instructions or directions by or to the
beneficial owners of such Global Security as the sole Holder of such Global
Security and shall have no obligations to the beneficial owners thereof
(including any direct or indirect participants in such Depositary). None of
the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security
Registrar shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the
records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership
interests of a Global Security in or pursuant to any applicable letter of
representations or other arrangement entered into with, or procedures of, the
Depositary with respect to such Global Security or for maintaining,
supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership
interests.

      Section 2.4 Form of Legend for Global Securities.

      Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for the
Securities evidenced thereby, every Global Security authenticated and
delivered hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

      THIS SECURITY IS A GLOBAL SECURITY WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE

NOMINEE THEREOF, EXCEPT IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE
INDENTURE.

Securities of the series upon the occurrence of such events as may be specified;

          (26) whether Securities of the series shall be issuable in registered
form or bearer form (registrable or not registrable as to principal, and with or
without interest coupons), or both, and any restrictions applicable to the
offering, sale or delivery of bearer securities and


                                       22

<PAGE>

the terms upon which bearer Securities of a series may be exchanged for
registered Securities of the same series and vice versa;

          (27) the forms of the Securities of the series;

          (28) any terms which may be related to warrants, options or other
rights to purchase and sell securities issued by the Company in connection with,
or for the purchase of, Securities of such series, including whether and under
what circumstances the Securities of any series may be used toward the exercise
price of any such warrants, options or other rights;

          (29) the subordination, if any, of the Securities of the series;

          (30) if the Securities of the series will be governed by, and the
extent to which such Securities will be governed by, any law other than the laws
of the state of New York;

          (31) any other terms of the series (which terms shall not be
inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, except as permitted by
Section 9.1(5)).

      All Securities of any one series need not be identical but may vary as
may be provided in or pursuant to the Board Resolution referred to above and
(subject to Section 3.3) set forth, or determined in the manner provided, in
the Officers' Certificate referred to above or in any such indenture
supplemental hereto. All Securities of any one series need not be issued at
the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened,
without the consent of the Holders, for issuances of additional Securities of
such series.

      Section 3.2 Denominations.

      Except as specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, the Securities of
each series shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons. The
Securities of such series shall be issuable only in such denominations as
shall be specified as contemplated by Section 3.1. In the absence of any such
specified denomination with respect to the Securities of any series, the
Securities of such series shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and
any integral multiple thereof.  Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by
Section 3.1 with respect to any series of Securities, any Securities of a
series denominated in a currency other than Dollars shall be issuable in
denominations that are the equivalent, as determined by the Company by
reference to the noon buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers
for such currency ("Exchange Rate"), as such rate is reported or otherwise
made available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, on the applicable
issue date for such Securities, of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.

      Section 3.3 Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

      The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its
Chairman of the Board, its Vice Chairman of the Board, its Chief Executive
Officer, its principal financial officer, its President or one of its Vice
Presidents, and attested by its Treasurer, its Secretary or one of its
Assistant Treasurers or Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these
officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. Securities bearing the
manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper
officers of the Company shall bind the Company,


                                       23

<PAGE>

notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such
offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not
hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

      At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of
this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by
the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order
for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in
accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such
Securities; provided, however, that in the case of Securities offered in a
Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Securities
from time to time in accordance with such other procedures (including,
without limitation, the receipt by the Trustee of oral or electronic
instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agents, promptly
confirmed in writing) acceptable to the Trustee as may be specified by or
pursuant to a Company Order delivered to the Trustee prior to the time of the
first authentication of Securities of such series. Each Security shall be
dated the date of its authentication unless otherwise provided by a Board
Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officers' Certificate. If
the form or terms of the Securities of the series have been established by or
pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions or any other method permitted by
Sections 2.1 and 3.1, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the
additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such
Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section
6.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon, a copy of such Board
Resolution, the Officers' Certificate setting forth the terms of the series
and an Opinion of Counsel, with such Opinion of Counsel stating,

          (1) if the form or terms of such Securities have been established by
or pursuant to Board Resolution or any other method permitted by Sections 2.1
and 3.1, that such form or terms have been, or in the case of Securities of a
series offered in a Periodic Offering will be, established in conformity with
the provisions of this Indenture, subject in the case of Securities offered in a
Periodic Offering, to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel; and

          (2) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions,
exceptions and qualifications specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will
constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in
accordance with their terms, except as such enforcement is subject to the effect
of (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization or other
laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights and (ii) general principles of
equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in
equity or at law).

      Such Opinion of Counsel need express no opinion as to the enforceability
of Section 6.7 or as to whether a court in the United States would render a
money judgment in a currency other than that of the United States.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1 and of the preceding paragraph,
if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, it
shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers' Certificate otherwise
required pursuant to Section 3.1 or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel
otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the
authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are


                                       24

<PAGE>

delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the
first Security of such series to be issued.

      Notwithstanding that such form or terms have been so established, the
Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate such Securities if,
in the written opinion of counsel to the Trustee (which counsel may be an
employee of the Trustee), such action may not lawfully be taken or if the
Trustee in good faith by its board of directors or trustees, executive
committee or a trust committee of directors, trustees or vice presidents
shall determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal
liability to Holders of any Securities then outstanding.

      With respect to Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering,
the Trustee may rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any of such
Securities, the form and terms thereof and the legality, validity, binding
effect and enforceability thereof, upon the Opinion of Counsel and the other
documents delivered pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 3.1 and this Section, as
applicable, in connection with the first authentication of Securities of such
series.

      No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a
certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein
executed by the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent by manual signature, and
such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been
authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the
Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for
cancellation as provided in Section 3.9, for all purposes of this Indenture
such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered
hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

      The Company in issuing Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then
generally in use), and if so, the Trustee may use the CUSIP numbers in
notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided,
however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to
the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number printed in the notice or on
the Securities, that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption or exchange shall
not be affected by any defect or omission of such CUSIP numbers.  The Company
will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in CUSIP numbers known to an
Officer of the Company. Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall have any
responsibility for any defect in the CUSIP number that appears on any
Security, check, advice of payment or redemption notice, and any such
document may contain a statement to the effect that CUSIP numbers have been
assigned by an independent service for convenience of reference and that
neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be liable for any inaccuracy in
such numbers.

      Section 3.4 Temporary Securities.

      Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the
Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed,
typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized
denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu
of which they are


                                       25

<PAGE>

issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other
variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced
by their execution of such Securities. All or any portion of the temporary
Securities of a series may be Global Securities.

      If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause
definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable
delay. Except in the case of temporary Securities that are Global Securities,
each of which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions thereof,
after the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary
Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of
such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the
office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series,
without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or
more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more
definitive Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and
of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. Until so exchanged, the
temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the
same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series
and tenor, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1.

      Section 3.5 Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

      The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee or in any office or agency to be maintained by the Company in
accordance with Section 9.2 in a Place of Payment or in such other place or
medium as may be specified pursuant to Section 3.1 a register for each series
of Securities (each register maintained in such office and in any other
office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes
referred to as the "Security Register") in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the
registration of Securities of such series and of transfers of Securities of
such series. Unless otherwise contemplated by Section 3.1, the Trustee is
hereby appointed "Security Registrar" for the purpose of registering
Securities and transfers of Securities, and for the purpose of maintaining
the Security Register in respect thereof, as herein provided.

      Except as set forth in Section 2.3 or as may be provided pursuant to
Section 3.1, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of a
series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that
series, the Company shall execute and deliver a Company Order requesting the
Trustee to authenticate and deliver, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more
new Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of
like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

      Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, at the option
of the Holder, Securities of any series (other than Global Securities) may be
exchanged for other Securities of the same series, of any authorized
denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon
surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency, and
upon payment, if the Company shall so require, of the charges hereinafter
provided. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall


                                       26

<PAGE>

authenticate and deliver, the Securities that the Holder making the exchange is
entitled to receive.

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

      Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or
for exchange shall (if so required by the Company, Security Registrar or the
Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Security Registrar or the
Trustee, as the case may be, duly executed, by the Holder thereof or its
attorney duly authorized in writing.

      Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, no service
charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of
Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with
any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges
pursuant to Section 3.4, 9.6 or 11.7 not involving any transfer.

      Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, if the
Securities of any series (or of any series and specified tenor) are to be
redeemed in whole or in part, the Company shall not be required (A) to issue,
register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of that series (or of
that series and specified tenor, as the case may be) during a period
beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of
a notice of redemption of any such Securities selected for redemption under
Section 11.3 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing,
or (B) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for
redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security
being redeemed in part.

      Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, the Company
shall not be required to register the transfer or exchange of Securities
between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

      Section 3.6 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

      If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company
shall execute and deliver a Company Order requesting the Trustee to
authenticate and deliver, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in
exchange therefor a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and
principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. If
there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such
security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any
agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the
Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon the Company's request the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost
or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and
principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.


                                       27

<PAGE>

      Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, in case any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and
payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new
Security, pay such Security.

      Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company
may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected
therewith.

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

      The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the
extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement
or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

      Section 3.7 Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

      Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1 with respect
to any series of Securities, interest on any Security which is payable, and
is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall
be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor
Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date
for such interest at the office or agency maintained for such purpose
pursuant to 9.2; provided, however, that at the option of the Company,
interest on any series of Registered Securities that bear interest may be
paid (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as it
shall appear on the Security Register of such series (unless, with respect to
a Global Security, the rules of the Depositary require payment of such amount
by wire transfer) or (ii) by wire transfer to an account maintained by the
Person entitled thereto as specified in the Security Register of such series.

      Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, any interest
on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or
duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called "Defaulted
Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant
Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted
Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as
provided in clause (1) or (2) below:

          (1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to
the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective
Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special
Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in
the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the
amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series
and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall


                                       28

<PAGE>

deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount
proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of
the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the
benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause
provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment
of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be not more than 15 days and not less
than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days
after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The
Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in
the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed
payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be
given to each Holder of Securities of such series in the manner set forth in
Section 1.7, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. The
Trustee may, in its discretion, in the name and at the expense of the Company,
cause a similar notice to be published at least once in an Authorized Newspaper,
but such publication shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment of
such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted
Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such
Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of
such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the
close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable
pursuant to the following clause (2).

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

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

      Section 3.8 Persons Deemed Owners.

      Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the
Company, each Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the
owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of
and any premium and (subject to Section 3.7) any interest and any Additional
Amounts or other payments on such Security and for all other purposes
whatsoever, whether or not such Security shall be overdue, and none of the
Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee or any agent of the Company, any
Guarantor or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

      Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, none of
the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee or any agent of the Company, any
Guarantor or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any
aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial
ownership interests of a Global Security, or for maintaining, supervising or


                                       29

<PAGE>

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

      Section 3.9 Cancellation.

      The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any
Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company
may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee
(or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any
Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not
issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled
by the Trustee. The Security Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to
the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer,
exchange or payment, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly
canceled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or
in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section, except
as expressly permitted by this Indenture or as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 3.1. On request of the Company at the time of
surrender, the Trustee shall deliver to the Company canceled Securities held
by the Trustee. In the absence of such request, all canceled Securities held
by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with the Trustee's
customary procedures.

      Section 3.10 Computation of Interest.

      Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for
Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be
computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

                                   ARTICLE 4

                           SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

      Section 4.1 Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

      This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect
with respect to Securities and any related Guarantees of or within any series
(except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of
such Securities and replacement of such Securities which may have been lost,
stolen or mutilated as herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, at
the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and any related Guarantees with
respect to such Securities and any related Guarantees, when

          (1) either

              (A) all such Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered
(other than (i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which
have been replaced or


                                       30

<PAGE>

paid as provided in Section 3.6 and (ii) Securities for whose payment money has
theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the
Trustee or the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from
such trust, as provided in Section 10.3) have been delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation; or

              (B) all such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee
for cancellation

                  (i) have become due and payable, or

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

                  (iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption
by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company,

and the Company or the Guarantors, if applicable, in the case of (i), (ii) or
(iii) above, has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as
trust funds in trust for the purpose money in an amount sufficient to pay and
discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal and any premium and
interest and any Additional Amounts to the date of such deposit (in the case
of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or
Redemption Date, as the case may be;

          (2) the Company or the Guarantors, if applicable, has paid or caused
to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company with respect to the
Outstanding Securities of such series;

          (3) the Company has complied with any other conditions specified
pursuant to Section 3.1 to be applicable to the Outstanding Securities of such
series; and

          (4) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein
provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to
such Securities and any related Guarantees have been complied with.

      If any Outstanding Securities of such series are to be redeemed prior to
their Stated Maturity, whether pursuant to any optional redemption provisions
or in accordance with any mandatory sinking fund requirement, the trust
agreement evidencing the trust referred to in subclause (B) of clause (1) of
Section 4.1 shall provide therefore and the Company shall make such
arrangements as are satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of
redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company.

      Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the
obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 6.7, the obligations
of the Trustee to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.14 and, if money
shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of
clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.2
and the last paragraph of Section 10.3 shall survive.


                                       31

<PAGE>

      Section 4.2 Application of Trust Money.

      Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.3, all
money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1 shall be held in
trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities
and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying
Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee
may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and any
premium and interest or Additional Amounts for whose payment such money has
been deposited with the Trustee.

      Section 4.3 Reinstatement.

      If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S.
Government Obligations deposited with respect to Securities or any related
Guarantee of any series in accordance with Section 4.1 by reason of any legal
proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental
authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application,
the Company's obligations under this Indenture with respect to the Securities
of such series and the Securities of such series, as well as any related
Guarantee and any Guarantor's obligations thereunder, shall be revived and
reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 4.1 until
such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money
or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 4.1; provided,
however, that if the Company or any Guarantor has made any payment of
principal of, premium (if any) or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with
respect to, any Securities or Guarantee because of the reinstatement of its
obligations, the Company or such Guarantor, as applicable, shall be
subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such
payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or
Paying Agent.

                                    REMEDIES

      Section 5.1 Events of Default.

      "Event of Default," wherever used herein with respect to Securities of
any series, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for
such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be
effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of
any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or
governmental body), unless it is either inapplicable to a particular series
or it is specifically deleted or modified in the Board Resolution,
supplemental indenture, Officers' Certificate establishing such series, or
form of Security for such series:

          (1) default in the payment of any interest on, or any Additional
Amounts with respect to, any Security of that series when it becomes due and
payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days (unless the
entire amount of such payment is deposited by the Company with the Trustee or
with a Paying Agent prior to the expiration of such period of 30 days); or

          (2) default in the payment of the principal of or any premium on any
Security of that series at its Maturity; or


                                       32

<PAGE>

          (3) default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as
due by the terms of a Security of that series, and continuance of such default
for a period of 30 days; or

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

          (5) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) a
decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or
proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other similar law or (B) a decree or order adjudging the
Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition
seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect
of the Company under any applicable federal or state law, or appointing a
custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other
similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or
ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of
any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed
and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or

          (6) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding
under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a
bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the entry of a decree or order
for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding under
any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other
similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or
proceeding against it, or the filing by it, of a petition or answer or consent
seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable federal or state law, or
the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or
taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
sequestrator or similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of
its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors,
or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as
they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Company in furtherance
of any such action; or

          (7) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of
that series in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture or Officers'
Certificate establishing that series.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.1, if the
principal of, premium (if any) or any interest on, or any Additional Amounts
with respect to, any Security is payable in a currency or currencies
(including a composite currency) other than Dollars and such currency or
currencies are not available to the Company for making payment thereof due to
the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control
of the Company (a "Conversion


                                       33

<PAGE>

Event"), the Company will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to Holders of
the Securities by making such payment in Dollars in an amount equal to the
Dollar equivalent of the amount payable in such other currency, as determined by
the Company by reference to the Exchange Rate, as such Exchange Rate is
certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the
date of such payment, or, if such rate is not then available, on the basis of
the most recently available Exchange Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 5.1, any payment made under such circumstances in
Dollars where the required payment is in a currency other than Dollars will not
constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture.

      Promptly after the occurrence of a Conversion Event with respect to the
Securities of any series, the Company shall give written notice thereof to
the Trustee; and the Trustee, promptly after receipt of such notice, shall
give notice thereof in the manner provided in Section 1.7 to the Holders of
such series. Promptly after the making of any payment in Dollars as a result
of a Conversion Event with respect to the Securities of any series, the
Company shall give notice in the manner provided in Section 1.7 to the
Holders of such series, setting forth the applicable Exchange Rate and
describing the calculation of such payments.

      Section 5.2 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

      Unless the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture or Officers'
Certificate establishing such series provides otherwise, if an Event of
Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(5) or
5.1(6)) with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding
occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders
of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
that series may declare the principal amount of all the Securities of that
series (or, if any Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount
Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be
specified by the terms thereof) and premium, if any, together with accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, and Additional Amounts, if any, with
respect thereto, to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to
the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders), and upon any such
declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) and premium, if any,
together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, and Additional
Amounts, if any, with respect thereto, shall become immediately due and
payable. Unless the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture or Officers'
Certificate establishing such series provides otherwise, if an Event of
Default specified in Section 5.1(5) or 5.1(6) with respect to Securities of
any series at the time Outstanding occurs, the principal amount of all the
Securities of that series (or, if any Securities of that series are Original
Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such
Securities as may be specified by the terms thereof) and premium, if any,
together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, and Additional
Amounts, if any, with respect thereto, shall automatically, and without any
declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, become
immediately due and payable.

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


                                       34

<PAGE>

          (1) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or deposited with the
Trustee a sum sufficient to pay

              (A) all overdue interest on, and any Additional Amounts with
respect to, all Securities of that series (or of all series, as the case may
be),

              (B) the principal of or premium (if any) on any Securities of that
series (or of all series, as the case may be) which have become due otherwise
than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or
rates prescribed therefor in such Securities (in the case of Original Issue
Discount Securities, the Securities' Yield to Maturity),

              (C) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,
interest upon overdue interest and any Additional Amounts at the rate or rates
prescribed therefor in such Securities (in the case of Original Issue Discount
Securities, the Securities' Yield to Maturity), and

              (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder, the
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances due to Trustee under Section
6.7, and all other amounts due under Section 6.7;

          (2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series
(or of all series, as the case may be), other than the nonpayment of the
principal of Securities of that series (or of all series, as the case may be)
which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been
cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13; and

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

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

      Section 5.3 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Trustee.

      The Company covenants that if

          (1) default is made in the payment of any interest on, or any
Additional Amounts with respect to, any Security of any series when such
interest or Additional Amounts shall become due and payable and such default
continues for a period of 30 days, or

          (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if
any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof,

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of
the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such
Securities for principal and any premium and interest on, and Additional
Amounts with respect to, and, to the extent that payment of such interest
shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal and premium
and on any overdue interest or Additional Amounts, at the rate or rates
prescribed therefor in such Securities (or in the case of Original Issue
Discount Securities, the Securities' Yield to Maturity), and, in addition
thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover


                                       35

<PAGE>

the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and
all other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.7.

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

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

      Section 5.4 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

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

          (1) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (or
lesser amount in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) (and premium,
if any) and interest and any Additional Amounts owing and unpaid in respect of
the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or
advisable to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding,
and

          (2) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian,
receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official
in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such
payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the
making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any
amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Trustee under Section 6.7.


                                       36

<PAGE>

      No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee
to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any
plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the
Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to
vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding; provided,
however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the
election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a
creditors' or other similar committee.

      Section 5.5 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.

      All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities
may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any
of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating
thereto, and any such proceeding may be instituted by the Trustee in its own
name as trustee of an express trust.

      Section 5.6 Application of Money Collected.

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

           FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section
      6.7 in connection with such series of Securities in respect of which
      money or other property is collected;

           SECOND: Subject to the terms of any subordination entered into as
      contemplated by Section 3.1, to the payment of the amounts then due and
      unpaid for principal of and any premium, if any, and interest on, and
      any Additional Amounts with respect to, the Securities in respect of
      which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected,
      ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the
      amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal and any
      premium, if any, interest on and Additional Amounts, respectively; and

           THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Company or any other Person or
      Persons entitled thereto.

      To the fullest extent allowed under applicable law, if for the purpose
of obtaining judgment against the Company in any court it is necessary to
convert the sum due in respect of the principal of, premium (if any) or
interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to, the Securities of any
series (the "Required Currency") into a currency in which a judgment will be
rendered (the "Judgment Currency"), the rate of exchange used shall be the
rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could
purchase in The City of New York the Required Currency with the Judgment
Currency on the Business Day in The City of New York next preceding that on
which final judgment is given. None of the Company, any Guarantor or the
Trustee shall be liable for any shortfall nor shall any of them benefit from
any windfall in payments to Holders of Securities under this Section 5.6
caused by a change in


                                       37

<PAGE>

exchange rates between the time the amount of a judgment against it is
calculated as above and the time the Trustee converts the Judgment Currency into
the Required Currency to make payments under this Section 5.6 to Holders of
Securities, but payment of such judgment shall discharge all amounts owed by the
Company on the claim or claims underlying such judgment.

      Section 5.7 Limitation on Suits.

      Subject to Section 5.8, no Holder of any Security of any series shall
have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with
respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee,
or for any other remedy hereunder, unless

          (1) an Event of Default with respect to such series of Securities
shall have occurred and be continuing and such Holder has previously given
written notice to the Trustee of such continuing Event of Default;

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

          (3) such Holder or Holders have offered and, if requested, provided to
the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to
be incurred in compliance with such request;

          (4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request
and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

          (5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given
to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series (or of all series,
as the case may be).

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

      Section 5.8 Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest.

      Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the right of any
Holder of any Security to receive payment of the principal of and any premium
and (subject to Section 3.7) interest on, or any Additional Amounts with
respect to, such Security on the Stated Maturity or Stated Maturities
expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption
Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment after the
respective due dates, shall not be impaired without the consent of such
Holder.


                                       38

      Section 5.9 Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

      If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce
any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to
the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any
determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders
shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions
hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the
Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

      Section 5.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

      Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.7 or with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in
the last paragraph of Section 3.6, no right or remedy herein conferred upon
or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of
any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and
remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or
otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any
other appropriate right or remedy.

      Section 5.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

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

      Section 5.12 Control by Holders.

      With respect to Securities of any series, the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall have the
right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for
any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power
conferred on the Trustee, relating to or arising under an Event of Default
described in clause (1), (2), (3), (4) or (7) of Section 5.1, and with
respect to all Securities the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
all Outstanding Securities shall have the right to direct the time, method
and place of conducting any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising
any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, relating to or arising under an
Event of Default described in clause (5) or (6) of Section 5.1, provided that
in each such case

          (1) the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such
direction if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that the action
so directed may not lawfully be taken or would conflict with this Indenture or
if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer, determine that the
proceedings so directed would involve it in personal liability or be unjustly
prejudicial to the Holders not taking part in such direction, and


                                       39

<PAGE>

          (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee
that is not inconsistent with such direction or this Indenture.

      Section 5.13 Waiver of Past Defaults.

      Subject to Section 5.8 and Section 9.2, the Holders of not less than a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any
series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series
waive any past default or Event of Default described in clause (1), (2), (3),
(4) or (7) of Section 5.1 hereunder with respect to such series and its
consequences, and the Holders of a majority in principal amount of all
Outstanding Securities may on behalf of the Holders of all Securities waive
any Event of Default described in clause (5) or (6) of Section 5.1 hereunder
and its consequences, except a default

          (1) in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on,
or any Additional Amounts with respect to, any Security as and when the same
shall become due and payable by the terms thereof, otherwise than by
acceleration (unless such default has been cured as provided herein), or

          (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 9
cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Security affected.

      Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event
of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every
purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent
or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

      Section 5.14 Undertaking for Costs.

      All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by
his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that in any suit for
the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit
against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as
Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs against any
such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust
Indenture Act; provided that the provisions of this Section shall not apply
to any suit instituted by the Company, to any suit instituted by the Trustee,
to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the
aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of
any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of
the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security on or after the
Stated Maturity or Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the
case of redemption, on the redemption date).

                                   ARTICLE 6

                                   THE TRUSTEE

      Section 6.1 Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

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

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

              (A) The Trustee need perform only those duties that are
specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants
or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee.

              (B) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the
opinions expressed therein, upon Officers' Certificates or Opinions of Counsel
furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture;
however, in the case of any such Officers' Certificates or Opinions of Counsel
which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the
Trustee, the Trustee shall examine such Officers' Certificates and Opinions of
Counsel to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this
Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of any mathematical
calculations or other facts stated therein).

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

              (A) This paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (2) of
this Section.

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

              (C) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it with respect to Securities of any
series in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series
relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon
the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series.

          (4) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the
Trustee is subject to paragraph (1), (2) and (3) of this Section.


                                       41

<PAGE>

          (5) The Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or to exercise any of
the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction
of any of Holder or Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holder or
Holders shall have offered and, if requested, provided to the Trustee reasonable
security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be
incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

          (6) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to risk
its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of
any of its duties, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it
shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or
adequate indemnity against such risk is not reasonably assured to it.

          (7) The Paying Agent, the Security Registrar and any Authenticating
Agent shall be entitled to the protections, immunities and standard of care as
are set forth in paragraphs (1), (2) and (3) of this Section with respect to the
Trustee.

      Section 6.2 Notice of Defaults.

      If a default occurs hereunder and is continuing with respect to
Securities of any series and it is known to a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee, the Trustee shall give the Holders of Securities of such series
notice of such default as and to the extent provided by the Trust Indenture
Act; provided, however, that except in the case of a default in the payment
of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on, or any Additional
Amounts with respect to, any Securities of such series or in the payment of
any sinking fund installment, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding
such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee
or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee
in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the
interests of the holders of Securities of such series.

      Section 6.3 Certain Rights of Trustee.

      Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1:

          (1) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the
Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon
any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,
request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon, other
evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine
and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

          (2) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the
facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture,
note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the
Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into
such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to
make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the
books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney;

          (3) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be
sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order (unless other
evidence is


                                       42

<PAGE>

specifically required herein), and any resolution of the Board of Directors
shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution;

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

          (5) the Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of
such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization
and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it
hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon;

          (6) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or
negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it
hereunder.

          (7) the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any default or
Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any series for which it is
acting as Trustee unless either (1) a Responsible Officer shall have actual
knowledge of such default or Event of Default or (2) written notice of such
default or Event of Default shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company
or any other obligor on such Securities or by any Holder of such Securities; and

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

      Section 6.4 Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.

      The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the
Trustee's certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of
the Company, and neither the Trustee nor any Security Registrar, Paying Agent
or Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The
Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this
Indenture or of the Securities. Neither the Trustee nor any Security
Registrar, Paying Agent or Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the
use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

      Section 6.5 May Hold Securities and Act as Trustee under Other Indentures.

      The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security
Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other
capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to
Sections 6.8 and 6.13, may otherwise deal with the Company or any Guarantor
with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating
Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent.

      Subject to the limitations imposed by the Trust Indenture Act, nothing
in this Indenture shall prohibit the Trustee from becoming and acting as
trustee under other indentures under


                                       43

<PAGE>

which other securities, or certificates of interest of participation in other
securities, of the Company or any Guarantor are outstanding in the same manner
as if it were not Trustee hereunder.

      Section 6.6 Money Held in Trust.

      Subject to the provisions of Sections 10.3 and 13.5, all moneys received
by the Trustee shall, until used or applied, as provided herein, be held in
trust for the purposes for which they were received. Money held by the
Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to
the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for
interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in
writing with the Company. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, all interest allowed on any such moneys shall be paid by
the Company from time to time upon a Company Order.

      Section 6.7 Compensation and Reimbursement.

      The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such reasonable
compensation for its services as the Company and the Trustee may agree in
writing from time to time.  The Trustee's compensation shall not be limited
by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust.  The Company
shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses, disbursements and advances incurred by it in connection with the
performance of its duties under this Indenture, except any such expense,
disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence, willful
misconduct or bad faith.  Such expenses shall include the reasonable
compensation and expenses of the Trustee's agents and counsel.

      The Company shall indemnify the Trustee for, and hold it harmless
against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claim or expense (including
attorneys' fees and expenses, and including taxes other than taxes based
upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee), including
without limitation the costs and expenses of defending itself against any
third-party claim (whether asserted by any Holder or any other Person (other
than the Company to the extent of any claim brought by it against the Trustee
that establishes a breach by the Trustee in the observance or performance of
its duties under this Indenture)), incurred by it without negligence, willful
misconduct or bad faith arising out of or in connection with its acceptance
or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the performance
of its duties or the exercise of its powers hereunder. With respect to any
such claim other than a claim brought by the Company, (i) the Trustee shall
notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity,
(ii) the Company may at its option defend the claim, in which event the
Trustee shall cooperate in the defense and the Trustee may have one separate
counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such
counsel and (iii) the Company need not pay for any settlement made without
its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. This
indemnification shall apply to officers, directors, employees, shareholders
and agents of the Trustee.

      To secure the Company's payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee
shall have a lien prior to the Securities of any series on all money or
property held or collected by the


                                       44

<PAGE>

Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of and interest on, or any
Additional Amounts with respect to, particular Securities of that series.

      When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of
Default specified in Section 5.1(5) or (6) occurs, the expenses and the
compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

      The provisions of this Section 6.7 and any lien arising hereunder shall
survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee or the discharge of the
Company's obligations under this Indenture and the termination of this
Indenture.

      Section 6.8 Conflicting Interests.

      If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the
meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such
conflicting interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner and with the
effect provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act
and this Indenture. To the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the
Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being
a trustee under this Indenture with respect to Securities of more than one
series or any other indenture.

      Section 6.9 Eligibility; Disqualification.

      There shall at all times be one (and only one) Trustee hereunder with
respect to the Securities of each series (which need not be the same Trustee
for all series). A Trustee may be Trustee hereunder for Securities of one or
more series. Each Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the
Trust Indenture Act to act as such and has (or if the Trustee is a member of
a bank holding company system, its bank holding company has) a combined
capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or
examination by federal or state (or the District of Columbia) authority. If
any such Person or bank holding company publishes reports of condition at
least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or
examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section and to the extent
permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the combined capital and surplus of
such Person or bank holding company shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so
published. If at any time the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any
series shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect
hereinafter specified in this Article.

       The Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the
requirements of Sections 310(a)(1), 310(a)(2) and 310(a)(5) of the Trust
Indenture Act.

      Section 6.10 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

      No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the
applicable requirements of Section 6.11.

      The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one
or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the
instrument of acceptance by a successor


                                       45

<PAGE>

Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee
within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning
Trustee may petition at the expense of the Company any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of such series.

      The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of
any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the
Company.  If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by
Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the removed Trustee within
30 days after the receipt of such notice of removal, the removed Trustee may
petition at the expense of the Company any court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of
such series.

      If at any time:

          (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 6.8 after written
request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder
of a Security for at least six months, or

          (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.9 and shall
fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such
Holder, or

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

then, in any such case, (A) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the
Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (B) subject to Section 5.14, any
Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months
may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect
to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

      If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting,
or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with
respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company by a Board
Resolution shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with
respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that
any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of
one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only
one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and such
successor Trustee or Trustees shall comply with the applicable requirements
of Section 6.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or
incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor
Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment
in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that
extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series


                                       46

<PAGE>

shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted
appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, the retiring Trustee may
petition, or any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such
series for at least six months may petition, on behalf of himself and all others
similarly situated, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

      The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of
the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment
of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series to all
Holders of Securities of such series in the manner provided in Section 1.7.
Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to
the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

      Section 6.11 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

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

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


                                       47

<PAGE>

transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by
such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those
series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.

      Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company and any
Guarantor shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly
vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers
and trusts referred to in the first or second preceding paragraph, as the
case may be.

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

      Section 6.12 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

      Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or
with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or
any corporation succeeding to or acquiring all or substantially all the
corporate trust business of the Trustee (including the administration of the
trust created by this Indenture), shall be the successor of the Trustee
hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and
eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or
any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any
Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee
then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to, or
by succession to or acquisition of all or substantially all of the corporate
trust business of, such successor Trustee may adopt such authentication and
deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such
successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

      Section 6.13 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

      If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or
any other obligor upon the Securities) as provided in the Trust Indenture
Act, the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture
Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other
obligor).

      Section 6.14 Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

      The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect
to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on
behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon
original issue and upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial
redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.6, and Securities so
authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall
be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee
hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication
and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of
authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and
delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a
certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the
Company and, except as other specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, shall
at all times be a bank or trust company or corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United


                                       48

<PAGE>

States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized
under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having (or if the Authenticating
Agent is a member of a bank holding company system, its bank holding company
has) a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to
supervision or examination by Federal or State (or the District of Columbia)
authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or
examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital
and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so
published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall
resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

      Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating
Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to or acquiring the
corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent,
shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall
be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of
any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating
Agent.

      An Authenticating Agent for any series of Securities may resign at any
time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee for such series and to
the Company. The Trustee for any series of Securities may at any time
terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice
thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such
a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time
such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee for such series may appoint a
successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and
shall give notice of such appointment in the manner provided in Section 1.7
to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such
Authenticating Agent will serve. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon
acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the
rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as
if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating
Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this
Section.

      The Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services under this Section, and the Trustee
shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the
provisions of Section 6.7.

      If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to
this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in
lieu of the Trustee's certificate of authentication, an alternative
certificate of authentication in the following form:

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

other duties of an Authenticating Agent hereunder, such Authenticating Agent
shall also be obligated: (i) to furnish to the Security Registrar promptly
all information necessary to enable the Security Registrar to maintain at all
times an accurate and current Security Register; and (ii) prior to
authenticating any Security denominated in a foreign currency, to ascertain
from the Company the units of such foreign currency that are required to be
determined by the Company pursuant to Section 3.2.

<PAGE>

          (3) to add any additional Events of Default for the benefit of the
Holders of any one or more series of Securities (and if such additional Events

any Holder.

      Section 9.2 Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders.

      With the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of each series affected by such supplemental indenture
(acting as one class), by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company and
the Trustee, the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the
Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the
purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating
any of the provisions of this Indenture or any indenture supplemental hereto
or of modifying in any manner


                                       53

<PAGE>

the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series under this Indenture;
provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the
consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby,

          (1) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of or any installment
of principal of, or the date fixed for payment of interest on or any sinking
fund payment with respect to, any Security, or reduce the principal amount
thereof or the rate of interest thereon, any Additional Amounts with respect
thereto or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or change any
obligation of the Company to pay Additional Amounts (except as contemplated by
Section 8.1 and permitted by clause (1) of Section 9.1), or reduce the amount of
the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security or any other Security which
would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity
thereof pursuant to Section 5.2, or change any Place of Payment where, or the
coin or currency or currencies (including composite currencies) in which any
Security or any premium or interest thereon or Additional Amounts with respect
thereto is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of
any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of
redemption, on or after the Redemption Date), or

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

          (3) modify any of the provisions of this Section, Section 5.13 or
Section 10.8, except to increase any such percentage or to provide with respect
to any particular series the right to condition the effectiveness of any
supplemental indenture as to that series on the consent of the Holders of a
specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities
of such series (which provision may be made pursuant to Section 3.1 without the
consent of any Holder) or to provide that certain other provisions of this
Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Security affected thereby; provided, however, that this clause shall
not be deemed to require the consent of any Holder with respect to changes in
the references to "the Trustee" and concomitant changes in this Section and
Section 10.8, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the
requirements of Sections 6.11 and 9.1(8).

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

      It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section to
approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it
shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

      Section 9.3 Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

      In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby
of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to
receive, and (subject to Sections 6.1 and 6.3) shall be fully protected in
relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such
supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The
Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental
indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties, immunities or
liabilities under this Indenture or otherwise.

      Section 9.4 Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

      Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article,
this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such
supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes;
and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and
delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby; provided that if such
supplemental indenture makes any of the changes described in clauses (1)
through (3) of the first proviso to Section 9.2, such supplemental indenture
shall bind each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every
subsequent Holder of such Security or any part thereof.

      Section 9.5 Conformity with Trust Indenture Act.

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

      Section 9.6 Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures.

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

                                    COVENANTS

      Section 10.1 Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest.

      The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of each
series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of
and any premium and interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to,
the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of the Securities
and this Indenture.

<PAGE>

      Section 10.2 Maintenance of Office or Agency.

      The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of
Securities an office or agency where Securities of that series may be
presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and
demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series
and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice
to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of any such
office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such
required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the
address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be
made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company
hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands. Unless otherwise provided in a supplemental
indenture or pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof, the Place of Payment for any
series of Securities shall be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

      The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other
offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be
presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to
time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation
or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to
maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any
series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the
Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the
location of any such other office or agency.

      Section 10.3 Money for Securities Payments to be Held in Trust.

      If the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates
shall at any time act as Paying Agent with respect to any series of
Securities, such Paying Agent will, on or before each due date of the
principal of or any premium or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with
respect to, any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust
for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the
principal and any premium and interest, or any Additional Amounts, so
becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise
disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its
action or failure so to act.

      Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series
of Securities, it will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of or
any premium or interest on, or Additional Amounts with respect to, any
Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to
pay such amount, such sum to be held as provided by the Trust Indenture Act,
and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly
notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

      The Company will cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities
other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in
which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the
provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will (1) comply with the
provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and
(2) during the continuance of any default by the Company (or any other
obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any payment in
respect of the Securities of that series,


                                       56

<PAGE>

upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums
held in trust by such Paying Agent for payment in respect of the Securities of
that series.

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

      Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held
by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of or any premium
or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to, any Security of
any series and remaining unclaimed for a period ending on the earlier of the
date that is ten Business Days prior to the date such money would escheat to
the State or two years after such principal, premium or interest or
Additional Amount has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on
Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from
such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured
general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all
liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust
money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon
cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being
required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause
to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper in The Borough of Manhattan,
The City of New York and in such other Authorized Newspapers as the Trustee
shall deem appropriate, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that,
after a date specified herein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the
date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining
will, unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of applicable
escheat, or abandoned or unclaimed property law, be repaid to the Company.

      Section 10.4 Statement by Officers as to Default.

      At any time at which there are Outstanding Securities of any series
issued under this Indenture, the Company will deliver to the Trustee, within
120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the
date hereof, an Officers' Certificate complying with Section 314(a)(4) of the
Trust Indenture Act and stating that a review of the activities of the
Company during such year and of performance under this Indenture has been
made under the supervision of the signers thereof and stating whether or not
to the best knowledge of the signers thereof, based upon such review, the
Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms,
provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period of
grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the Company shall
be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof
of which they may have knowledge. One of the officers signing the Officers'
Certificate delivered pursuant to this Section 10.05 shall be the principal
executive, financial or accounting officer of the Company.

      Subject to Article 8, the Company will do or cause to be done all things
necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence.

      Section 10.6 All Securities to be Equally and Ratably Secured.

      Unless specified otherwise by the Company pursuant to Section 3.1 with
respect to any series, the Company will not itself secure Securities of any
one or more series with any Mortgage, without effectively providing that the
Securities of every other series shall be secured equally and ratably by such
Mortgage.

      Section 10.7 Maintenance of Properties.

      The Company will cause all properties used or useful in the conduct of
its business to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working
order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be made all
necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements
thereof, all as, and to the extent, in the judgment of the Company may be
necessary or appropriate in connection with its business; provided, however,
that nothing in this Section shall prevent the Company from discontinuing the
operation or maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is,
in the judgment of the Company, desirable in the conduct of its business and
not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

      Section 10.8 Payment of Taxes and Other Claims.

      The Company will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged,
before the same shall become delinquent, (1) all taxes, assessments and
governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or upon the income,
profits or property of the Company, and (2) all lawful claims for labor,
materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien upon the
property of the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax,
assessment, charge or claim (i) whose amount, applicability or validity is
being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings or (ii) if the
failure to pay or discharge would not have a material adverse effect on the
assets, business, operations, properties or financial condition of the
Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

      Section 10.9 Waiver of Certain Covenants.

      Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for
Securities of such series, the Company may, with respect to the Securities of
any series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term,
provision or condition set forth in any covenant provided pursuant to
Sections 3.1(21), 9.1(2), 8.1, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.7 or 10.8  for the benefit
of the Holders of such series if before or after the time for such compliance
the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such
compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term,
provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such
term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and,
until such waiver shall become effective,


                                       58

<PAGE>

the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any
such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

      Section 10.10 Additional Amounts.

      If the Securities of a series expressly provide for the payment of
Additional Amounts, the Company will pay to the Holder of any Security of
such series Additional Amounts as expressly provided therein. Whenever in
this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the
principal of, or premium (if any) or interest on any Security of any series
or the net proceeds received from the sale or exchange of any Security of any
series, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of
Additional Amounts provided for in this Section 10.10 to the extent that, in
such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect
thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.10 and express mention
of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provisions hereof
shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions
hereof where such express mention is not made.

      If the Securities of a series provide for the payment of Additional
Amounts, at least 10 days prior to the first Interest Payment Date with
respect to that series of Securities (or if the Securities of that series
will not bear interest prior to Maturity, the first day on which a payment of
principal and any premium is made), and at least 10 days prior to each date
of payment of principal and any premium or interest if there has been any
change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned Officers'
Certificate, the Company shall furnish the Trustee and the Company's
principal Paying Agent or Paying Agents, if other than the Trustee, with an
Officers' Certificate instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent or Paying
Agents whether such payment of principal of and any premium or interest on
the Securities of that series shall be made to Holders of Securities of that
series who are United States Aliens without withholding for or on account of
any tax, assessment or other governmental charge described in the Securities
of that series. If any such withholding shall be required, then such
Officers' Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to
be withheld on such payments to such Holders of Securities and the Company
will pay to such Paying Agent the Additional Amounts required by this
Section 10.10. The Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying
Agent for, and to hold them harmless against any loss, liability or expense
reasonably incurred without negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on
their part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by
any of them in reliance on any Officers' Certificate furnished pursuant to
this Section 10.10.

                            REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

      Section 11.1 Applicability of Article.

      Securities of any series that are redeemable in whole or in part before
their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and
(except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for such
Securities) in accordance with this Article.

      Section 11.2 Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

      The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced
by a Board Resolution or in another manner specified as contemplated by
Section 3.1 for such Securities. In case of any redemption at the election of
the Company of less than all the Securities of any series (including any such
redemption affecting only a single Security), the Company shall, at least 45
days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter
notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such
Redemption Date, of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be
redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor of the Securities to be redeemed.
In the case of any redemption of Securities (i) prior to the expiration of
any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities
or elsewhere in this Indenture or (ii) pursuant to an election of the Company
which is subject to a condition specified in the terms of such Securities,
the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate
evidencing compliance with such restriction or condition.

      Section 11.3 Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed.

      If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless
all the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed
or unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular
Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 45 days prior to
the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such
series not previously called for redemption, on a pro-rata basis, or in the
Trustee's discretion, by lot, or by such other method as the Trustee shall
deem fair and appropriate, provided that the unredeemed portion of the
principal amount of any Security shall be in an authorized denomination
(which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such
Security.

      If any Security selected for partial redemption is converted in part
before termination of the conversion right with respect to the portion of the
Security so selected, the converted portion of such Security shall be deemed
(so far as may be) to be the portion selected for redemption.

      The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Security Registrar
in writing of the Securities selected for redemption as aforesaid and, in
case of any Securities selected for partial redemption as aforesaid, the
principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

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

      Section 11.4 Notice of Redemption.

      Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage
prepaid, mailed not fewer than 30 nor more than 90 days prior to the
Redemption Date, unless a shorter period is specified in the Securities to be
redeemed, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at its address
appearing in the Security Register.

      All notices of redemption shall state:


                                       60

<PAGE>

          (1) the Redemption Date,

          (2) the Redemption Price (including accrued interest, if any, to be
paid),

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

          (4) in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, that on and
after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, the Holder of such
Security will receive, without charge, a new Security or Securities of
authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed;

          (5) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due
and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and, if applicable, that
interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date,

          (6) the place or places where each such Security is to be surrendered
for payment of the Redemption Price,

          (7) if applicable, the conversion price, the date on which the right
to convert the principal of the Securities or the portions thereof to be
redeemed will terminate, and the place or places where such Securities may be
surrendered for conversion,

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

          (9) the CUSIP number or numbers and/or common codes of the Security
being redeemed.

      Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the
Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the
Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, provided that the
Company shall have prepared and provided to the Trustee the form of such
notice, or, if acceptable to the Trustee, provided sufficient information to
enable the Trustee to prepare such notice, in each case on a timely basis.

      Section 11.5 Deposit of Redemption Price.

      On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the
Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own
Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.3) an
amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the
Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all
the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.

      If any Security called for redemption is converted, any money deposited
with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent or so segregated and held in trust
for the redemption of such Security shall (subject to any right of any Holder
of such Security to receive interest thereon) be paid to


                                       61

<PAGE>

the Company on Company Request, or if then held by the Company, shall be
discharged from such trust.

      Section 11.6 Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

      Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so
to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the
Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the
Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued
interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any
such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security
shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued
interest (and any Additional Amounts) to the Redemption Date; provided,
however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1,
installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the
Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or
more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on
the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of
Section 3.7.

      If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon
surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any premium shall, until
paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor
in the Security or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, the
Securities' Yield to Maturity.

      Section 11.7 Securities Redeemed in Part.

      Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered
at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so
requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder
thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such
Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same
series and Stated Maturity and of like tenor, of any authorized denomination
as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in
exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so
surrendered.

       Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, the Company
and any Affiliate of the Company may at any time purchase or otherwise
acquire Securities in the open market or by private agreement. Such
acquisition shall not operate as or be deemed for any purpose to be a
redemption of the indebtedness represented by such Securities. Any Securities
purchased or acquired by the Company may be delivered to the Trustee and,
upon such delivery, the indebtedness represented thereby shall be deemed to
be satisfied. Section 3. 9 shall apply to all Securities so delivered.

                                  SINKING FUNDS

      Section 12.1 Applicability of Article.

      The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund
for the retirement of Securities of any series except as otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 3.1 for such Securities.

      The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms
of any Securities is herein referred to as a "mandatory sinking fund
payment," and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by
the terms of such Securities is herein referred to as an "optional sinking
fund payment." Unless otherwise provided for by the terms of any Securities,
the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as
provided in Section 12.2. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the
redemption of Securities as provided for by the terms of such Securities.

      Section 12.2 Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

      The Company (1) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other
than any previously called for redemption) and (2) may apply as a credit
Securities of a series which have been redeemed either at the election of the
Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application
of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such
Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking
fund payment with respect to any Securities of such series required to be
made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as and to the extent provided
for by the terms of such Securities; provided that the Securities to be so
credited have not been previously so credited. The Securities to be so
credited shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at
the Redemption Price, as specified in the Securities so to be redeemed, for
redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such
sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

      Section 12.3 Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

      Not fewer than 45 days prior (unless a shorter period shall be
satisfactory to the Trustee) to each sinking fund payment date for any
Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for such
Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, the portion thereof, if
any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if
any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities pursuant
to Section 12.2 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so
delivered. Not fewer than 30 days prior to each such sinking fund payment
date, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such
sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.3 and cause
notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the
expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.4. Such notice
having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon
the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.6 and 11.7.

                       DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

      Section 13.1 Company's Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

      The Company may elect, at its option at any time, to have Section 13.2
or Section 13.3 applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the
case may be, designated pursuant to Section 3.1 as being defeasible pursuant
to such Section 13.2 or 13.3, in accordance with any applicable requirements
provided pursuant to Section 3.1 and upon compliance with the conditions set
forth below in this Article. Any such election shall be evidenced by a Board
Resolution or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for
such Securities.

      Section 13.2 Defeasance and Discharge.

      Upon the Company's exercise of its option (if any) to have this Section
applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be,
the Company and any applicable Guarantor shall be deemed to have been
discharged from its obligations with respect to such Securities as provided
in this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section
13.4 are satisfied (hereinafter called "Defeasance"). For this purpose, such
Defeasance means that the Company or any Guarantor shall be deemed to have
paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities
and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and
this Indenture and any related Guarantee insofar as such Securities are
concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute
proper instruments acknowledging the same), subject to the following which
shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

          (1) the rights of Holders of such Securities to receive, solely from
the trust fund described in Section 13.4 and as more fully set forth in such
Section, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest
on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to, such Securities when payments are
due,

          (2) the Company's obligations with respect to such Securities under
Sections 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 10.2 and 10.3,

          (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee
hereunder, and

          (4) this Article.

Subject to compliance with this Article, the Company may exercise its option
(if any) to have this Section applied to any Securities notwithstanding the
prior exercise of its option (if any) to have Section 13.3 applied to such
Securities.

      Section 13.3 Covenant Defeasance.

      Upon the Company's exercise of its option (if any) to have this Section
applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be,


                                       64

<PAGE>

          (1) the Company or any Guarantors shall be released from their
obligations under Sections 8.1, 10.4, 10.5. 10.6, 10.7 or 10.8 and any covenants
provided pursuant to Sections 3.1(21) or 9.1(2) for the benefit of the Holders
of such Securities and

          (2) the occurrence of any event specified in Section 5.1(4) (with
respect to any of Sections 8.1, 10.4, 10.5. 10.6, 10.7 or 10.8 and any such
covenants provided pursuant to Sections 3.1(21) or 9.1(2)) and the occurrence of
any other Event of Default specified pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 9.1(3)
shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default,

in each case with respect to such Securities or any series of Securities as
provided in this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in
Section 13.4 are satisfied (hereinafter called "Covenant Defeasance"). For
this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to such
Securities, the Company and any Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall
have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth
in any such specified Section or such other covenant (to the extent so
specified in the case of Section 5.1(4) and the occurrence of any Event of
Default specified pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 9.1(3)), whether
directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any
such Section or such other covenant or by reason of any reference in any such
Section or such other covenant to any other provision herein or in any other
document, but the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be
unaffected thereby.

      Section 13.4 Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

      The following shall be the conditions to the application of Section 13.2
or Section 13.3 to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case
may be:

deposited irrevocably with the Trustee (or another trustee which satisfies the

provisions of this Article applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the
purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for,
and dedicated solely to, the benefits of the Holders of such Securities,

              (A) in the case of Securities of a series denominated in currency
of the United States of America,

amount, or

                  (ii) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled
payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their
terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment,
an amount in cash, or

                  (iii) a combination thereof, or

              (B) in the case of Securities of a series denominated in currency
other than that of the United States of America,


                                       65

<PAGE>

                  (i) cash in the currency in which such series of Securities is
denominated in an amount, or

                  (ii) Foreign Government Obligations which through the
scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance
with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any
payment, an amount in cash, or

                  (iii) a combination thereof,

in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by
the Trustee (or any such other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the
principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities on the
respective Stated Maturities, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture
and such Securities.

          (2) For Securities denominated in United States dollars, in the event
of an election to have Section 13.2 apply to any Securities or any series of
Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee
an Opinion of Counsel stating that

              (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by,
the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or

              (B) since the date of this instrument, there has been a change in
the applicable Federal income tax law,

in either case (A) or (B) to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion
shall confirm that, the Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain or
loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, Defeasance
and discharge to be effected with respect to such Securities and will be
subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at
the same times as would be the case if such deposit, Defeasance and discharge
were not to occur.

          (3) For Securities denominated in United States dollars, in the event
of an election to have Section 13.3 apply to any Securities or any series of
Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee
an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Securities will not
recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the
deposit and Covenant Defeasance to be effected with respect to such Securities
and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner
and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and Covenant
Defeasance were not to occur.

          (4) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate to the effect that neither such Securities nor any other Securities
of the same series, if then listed on any securities exchange, will be delisted
as a result of such deposit.

          (5) No event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would
become, an Event of Default with respect to such Securities or any other
Securities shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such deposit or,
with regard to any such event specified in Sections 5.1(5) and (6), at any time
on or prior to the 90th day after the date of such deposit (it being understood
that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until after such 90th day).


                                       66

<PAGE>

          (6) Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not cause the Trustee
to have a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act
(assuming all Securities are in default within the meaning of such Act).

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

          (8) Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in the
trust arising from such deposit constituting an investment company within the
meaning of the Investment Company Act unless such trust shall be registered
under such Act or exempt from registration thereunder.

          (9) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent with respect to such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance have been
complied with.

      Section 13.5 Deposited Money, U. S. Government Obligations and Foreign
Government Obligations to be Held in Trust; Miscellaneous Provisions.

      Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.3, all
money, U.S. Government Obligations and Foreign Government Obligations
(including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other
qualifying trustee (solely for purposes of this Section and Section 13.6, the
Trustee and any such other trustee are referred to collectively as the
"Trustee") pursuant to Section 13.4 in respect of any Securities shall be
held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions
of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or
through any such Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying
Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities, of
all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and any
premium and interest, but money so held in trust need not be segregated from
other funds except to the extent required by law. The Company shall pay and
indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or
assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 13.4 or the principal and interest
received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge
which by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities.
Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall
deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any
money, U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations held by
it as provided in Section 13.4 with respect to any Securities which, in the
opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants
expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in
excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to
effect the Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, with
respect to such Securities.

      Section 13.6 Reinstatement.

      If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in
accordance with this Article with respect to any Securities by reason of any
order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining,
restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the


                                       67

<PAGE>

obligations under this Indenture and such Securities and any related Guarantee
from which the Company and any Guarantor have been discharged or released
pursuant to Section 13.2 or 13.3 shall be revived and reinstated as though no
deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article with respect to such Securities
and any related Guarantee, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is
permitted to apply all money held in trust pursuant to Section 13.5 with respect
to such Securities in accordance with this Article; provided, however, that if
the Company makes any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on any
such Security following such reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall
be subrogated to the rights (if any) of the Holders of such Securities to
receive such payment from the money so held in trust.

      Section 14.1 Guarantee.

      Any series of Securities may be guaranteed by one or more of the
Guarantors.  The terms and the form of any such Guarantee will be established
in the manner contemplated by Section 3.1 for that particular series of
Securities.
