any further action by the Company. The Company Order shall specify the amount of the Securities to be authenticated, the date on which the original issue of Securities is to be authenticated, and to whom such securities should be delivered. The
Trustee shall have no obligation to authenticate any Securities under this Indenture unless it has first received a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities as described in this Section 3.3(b) . 


                    (c)     In authenticating Securities of any series and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in
relation to such Securities the Trustee shall receive, and (subject to Section 11.2) shall be fully protected in relying upon: 

	          	          (i)     the
          Board Resolution and the Officers’ Certificate or supplemental
          indenture, as applicable, relating thereto and, if applicable, an appropriate
          record of any action taken pursuant to such supplemental indenture,
          certificate or resolution, certified by the Secretary or an Assistant
          Secretary of the Company; 

                 (ii)     an
          Officers’ Certificate of the Company as to the absence of any
          event that is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become,
          an Event of Default; and 

                 (iii)     an
          Opinion of Counsel prepared in accordance with Section 16.1, which
    shall state: 




	 	 	 
	          	          	          (A)     that
        the form and terms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant
        to one or more Board Resolutions, and by an Officer’s Certificate
        or supplemental indenture as permitted by Sections 14.1 or 14.2, or by
        all such resolution or resolutions, certificate and supplemental indenture,
    in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 




-11- 










	          	          	          (B)     that
          such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and
          issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified
          in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding
          obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms,
          and will be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture; 

                 (C)     that
          the Company has the corporate power to issue the Securities, and has
          duly taken all necessary action with respect to such issuance; 

                 (D)     that
          all requirements of the Indenture applicable to the Company in respect
          of the execution and delivery by the Company of the Securities and
          of such supplemental indenture, if any, have been complied with and,
          that assuming (a) all requisite corporate authorization on the part
          of the Trustee, (b) continued compliance by the Trustee with the terms
          of the Indenture specifically applicable to the Trustee, and (c) due
          authentication and delivery of the Securities by the Trustee, the execution
          and delivery of such supplemental indenture, if any, will not violate
    the terms of this Indenture. 



                    (d)     The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver the Securities under this Section if the issue
of the Securities pursuant to this Indenture will adversely affect the Trustee’s
own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise
in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 


                    (e)     Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication, except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 3.1 with
respect to the Securities of such series. 


                    (f)     If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 3.1 that the Securities of a 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 upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver one or more Global Securities that (i) shall represent an aggregate amount equal to the
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series to be represented by such Global Securities, (ii) shall be registered, if in registered form, in the name of the Depositary for such Global Security or Securities or the nominee
of such Depositary, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary’s instruction and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect: 


  
    “UNLESS AND UNTIL IT IS EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR THE INDIVIDUAL SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY, THIS GLOBAL SECURITY MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR
    BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY.” 



The aggregate principal amount of each Global Security may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Security Custodian, as provided in this Indenture. 


                    (g)     Each Depositary designated pursuant to Section 3.1 for a Global Security in registered form must, at the time of its
designation and at all times while it serves as such Depositary, be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and any other applicable statute or regulation. 


                    (h)     Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with
respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depositary or by the 


-12- 











Security Custodian under such Global Security, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar and any of their agents as the absolute owner of such Global Security for all
purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar or any of their agents from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization
furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Members, the operation of customary practices of the Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of an owner of a beneficial interest in any Global Security. The registered
holder of a Global Security may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Members and Persons that may hold interests through Members, to take any action that a holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Securities.



                    (i)     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 one of the forms provided for herein duly executed by the Trustee by manual signature of one of its Responsible Officers or by an Authenticating Agent, and such
certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 


                    Section 3.4.      Temporary Securities. 


                    (a)     Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise reproduced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which
they are issued, in registered form and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers of the Company executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such
Securities. Any such temporary Security may be in global form, representing all or a portion of the Outstanding Securities of such series. Every such temporary Security shall be executed by the Company and upon receipt of a Company Order shall be
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the definitive Security or Securities in lieu of which it is issued. 


                    (b)     If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of such series to be
prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of such temporary Securities at
the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for such 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 upon receipt of a Company
Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor. 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. 


                    (c)     Upon any exchange of a portion of a temporary Global Security for a definitive Global Security or for the individual
Securities represented thereby pursuant to this Section 3.4 or Section 3.6, the temporary Global Security shall be endorsed by the Trustee to reflect the reduction of the principal amount evidenced thereby, whereupon the principal amount of such
temporary Global Security shall be reduced for all purposes by the amount so exchanged and endorsed. 


-13- 











                    Section 3.5.      Registrar and Paying Agent. 


                    (a)     The Company will keep, at an office or agency to be maintained by it in a Place of Payment where Registered Securities
may be presented for registration or presented and surrendered for registration of transfer or of exchange, and where Securities of any series that are convertible or exchangeable may be surrendered for conversion or exchange, as applicable (the
“Registrar”), a security register for the registration and the registration of transfer or of exchange of the Registered Securities (the registers maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of
Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Register”), as in this Indenture provided, which Register shall at all reasonable times be open for inspection by the Trustee. Such Register shall be in written form or in any
other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. The Company may have one or more co-Registrars; the term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar. 


                    (b)     The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or co-Registrar not a party to this
Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of each such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar, the Trustee shall act
as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 11.1. The Company or any Affiliate thereof may act as Registrar, co-Registrar or transfer agent. 


                    (c)     The Company hereby appoints the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office as Registrar in connection with the Securities
and this Indenture, until such time as another Person is appointed as such. 


                    Section 3.6.      Transfer and Exchange. 


                    (a)       Transfer. 


                    (i)     Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Registered Security of any series at the Registrar, the Company
shall execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee, one or more new Registered Securities of the same series for like aggregate principal amount of any authorized
denomination or denominations. The transfer of any Security shall not be valid as against the Company or the Trustee unless registered at the Registrar by the registered holder, or by his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. 


                    (ii)     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for the
individual Securities represented thereby, a Global Security representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of
such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor Depositary. 


                    (b) Exchange. (i) At the option of the holder, Registered Securities of any series
(other than a Global Security, except as set forth below) may be exchanged for other Registered Securities of the same series for like aggregate principal amount of any authorized denomination or denominations, upon surrender of the Registered
Securities to be exchanged at the Registrar. 


                    (ii)     Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of a Company
Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities that the holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 


-14- 











                    (c) Exchange of Global Securities for Individual Securities. Except as provided
below, owners of beneficial interests in Global Securities will not be entitled to receive individual definitive Securities. 

	          	          (i)     Individual
          definitive Securities shall be issued to all owners of beneficial interests
          in a Global Security in exchange for such interests if: (A) at any
          time the Depositary for the Securities of a series notifies the Company
          that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Securities
          of such series or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities
          of such series shall no longer be eligible under Section 3.3(g) and,
          in each case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company
          within 90 days of such notice, or (B) the Company executes and delivers
          to the Trustee and the Registrar an Officers’ Certificate stating
          that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable. 

                 In
          connection with the exchange of an entire Global Security for individual
          definitive Securities pursuant to this subsection (c), such Global
          Security shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation,
          and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company
          Order for the authentication and delivery of individual definitive
          Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver to each beneficial
          owner identified by the Depositary in exchange for its beneficial interest
          in such Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of individual
          definitive Securities of authorized denominations. 

                 (ii)     The
          owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Security will be entitled
          to receive an individual Security in exchange for such interest if
          an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon receipt by
          the Security Custodian and Registrar of instructions from the holder
          of a Global Security directing the Security Custodian and Registrar
          to (x) issue one or more individual Securities in the amounts specified
          to the owner of a beneficial interest in such Global Security and (y)
          debit or cause to be debited an equivalent amount of beneficial interest
          in such Global Security, subject to the rules and regulations of the
    Depositary: 



	          	 
	 	          	          (A)     the
          Security Custodian and Registrar shall notify the Company and the Trustee
          of such instructions, identifying the owner and amount of such beneficial
          interest in such Global Security; 

                 (B)     the
          Company shall promptly execute and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company
          Order for the authentication and delivery of individual Securities
          of such series, shall authenticate and deliver to such beneficial owner
          individual Securities in an equivalent amount to such beneficial interest
          in such Global Security; and 

                 (C)     the
          Security Custodian and Registrar shall decrease such Global Security
          by such amount in accordance with the foregoing. In the event that
          the individual Securities are not issued to each such beneficial owner
          promptly after the Registrar has received a request from the holder
          of a Global Security to issue such individual Securities, the Company
          expressly acknowledges, with respect to the right of any holder to
          pursue a remedy pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof, the right of any beneficial
          holder of Securities to pursue such remedy with respect to the portion
          of the Global Security that represents such beneficial holder’s
    Securities as if such individual Securities had been issued. 

	 	 	 
	 	          (iii)     If
        specified by the Company pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to a series
        of Securities, the Depositary for such series of Securities may surrender
        a Global Security for such series of Securities in exchange in whole
        or in part for individual definitive Securities of such series on such
        terms as are acceptable to the Company and such Depositary. Thereupon,
    the Com-


-15- 









 

	          	pany shall execute, and upon receipt
        of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, without
    service charge, 
	 	 
	 	          	          (A)     to
          each Person specified by such Depositary a new individual definitive
          Security or Securities of the same series, of 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 in a denomination equal to the
          difference, if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered
          Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of individual definitive
    Securities delivered to holders thereof. 

	 	 	 
	 	          (iv)     In
          any exchange provided for in clauses (i) through (iii), the Company
          will execute and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee will authenticate
          and deliver individual definitive Securities in registered form in
          authorized denominations. 

                 (v)     Upon
          the exchange in full of a Global Security for individual definitive
          Securities, such Global Security shall be canceled by the Trustee.
          Individual Registered 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,
          pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or
          otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such
          Registered Securities to the Persons in whose names such Registered
          Securities are so registered. 

     



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


                    (e)     Every Registered Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer, or for exchange or payment shall (if
so required by the Company, the Trustee or the Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and the Registrar, duly executed by the holder thereof
or by his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. 


                    (f)     No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities; provided, however, that the
Company, the Trustee or the Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than those
expressly provided in this Indenture to be made at the Company’s own expense or without expense or charge to the holders. 


                    (g)     The Company shall not be required to (i) register, transfer or exchange Securities of any series during a period
beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the transmission of a notice of redemption of Securities of such series selected for redemption under Section 4.3 and ending at the close of business on the day of such transmission, or
(ii) register, transfer or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 


                    (h)     Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer or exchange of any Security, the Company, the Trustee, the
Paying Agent, the Registrar or any co-Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security (whether or not 


-16- 











such Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon) for all purposes whatsoever, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or any co-Registrar
shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 


                    (i)     In case a successor Company (“Successor Company”) has executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the
Trustee pursuant to Article XIV, any of the Securities authenticated or delivered pursuant to such transaction may, from time to time, at the request of the Successor Company, be exchanged for other Securities executed in the name of the Successor
Company with such changes in phraseology and form as may be appropriate, but otherwise identical to the Securities surrendered for such exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon Company Order of the Successor Company, shall
authenticate and deliver Securities as specified in such order for the purpose of such exchange. If Securities shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a Successor Company pursuant to this Section 3.6 in exchange or
substitution for or upon registration of transfer of any Securities, such Successor Company, at the option of the holders but without expense to them, shall provide for the exchange of all Securities at the time Outstanding for Securities
authenticated and delivered in such new name. 


                    (j)     Each holder of a Security agrees to indemnify the Company, the Registrar and the Trustee against any liability that
may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such holder’s Security in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or applicable United States federal or state securities laws. 


                    (k)     The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions
on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and
to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. 


                    (l)     Neither the Trustee nor any agent of the Trustee shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by
the Depositary. 


                    Section 3.7.      Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 


                    (a)     If (i) any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office or (ii) the Company and the
Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and there is delivered to the Company and the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to them to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless,
and neither the Company nor the Trustee receives notice that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, then the Company shall execute and upon Company Request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of
any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor, form, terms and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously Outstanding. Any new Security authenticated and delivered, in
exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, under this Section 3.7(a) shall not gain and shall not lose any interest with respect to any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security as a result from such
exchange or substitution. 


                    (b)     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 the amount due on such Security in accordance with its terms. 


-17- 











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


                    (d)     Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section 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. 


                    (e)     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 3.8.      Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 


                    (a)     The interest on any Registered Security that is payable and is punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest
Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Registered Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such interest notwithstanding the cancellation of such Registered
Security upon any transfer or exchange subsequent to the Record Date. Payment of interest on Registered Securities shall be made at the Corporate Trust Office (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.1) or, at the option of the Company,
by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Register or, if provided pursuant to Section 3.1 and in accordance with arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee, at the option of the Registered
Holder by wire transfer to an account designated by the Registered Holder. 


                    (b)     Any interest on any Security that is payable but is not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment
Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall, if such Security is a Registered Security, forthwith cease to be payable to the Registered Holder on the relevant Record Date by virtue of his, her or its having been such a Registered
Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (i) or (ii) below: 

	          	          (i)     The
        Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons
        in whose names such Registered Securities (or their respective Predecessor
        Securities) are registered at the close of business on a special record
        date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest (a “Special Record
        Date”), which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company
        shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest
        proposed to be paid on each such Registered Security and the date of
        the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit
        with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed
        to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements
        satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the
        proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the
        benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest 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 calendar days and not less than 10 calendar days prior to the date
        of the proposed payment and not less than 10 calendar days after the
        receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee
        shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in
        the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the
        proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date
        therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the holders of
        such Registered Securities at their addresses as they appear in the Register,
    not less than 10 calendar days prior to such Special 


-18- 









	          	Record Date. Notice of the
          proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record
          Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest
          shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Registered Securities
          (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 (ii). 

                 (ii)     The
          Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on Registered Securities
          in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of
          any securities exchange on which such Registered 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. 



                    (c)     Subject
    to the provisions set forth herein relating to Record Dates, each Security
    delivered pursuant to any provision of this Indenture in exchange or substitution
    for, or upon registration of transfer of, any other Security shall carry
    all the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were
carried by such other Security. 


                    Section 3.9.      Cancellation. Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.1 for
Securities of any series, all Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or credit against any sinking fund or otherwise shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation and shall be promptly canceled by it and, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be promptly canceled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and
delivered hereunder that the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as
provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee shall dispose of all canceled Securities held by it in accordance with its then customary procedures and, if requested by the Company in writing, deliver a
certificate of such disposal to the Company. The acquisition of any Securities by the Company shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the Indebtedness represented thereby unless and until such Securities are surrendered to the Trustee
for cancellation. 


                    Section 3.10.      Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise specified pursuant to
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. 


                    Section 3.11.      Currency of Payments in Respect of Securities. 


                    (a)     Except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.1 for Registered Securities of any series, payment of the
principal of and premium, if any, and interest on Registered Securities of such series will be made in U.S. Dollars. 


                    (b)     For purposes of any provision of the Indenture where the holders of Outstanding Securities may perform an action that
requires that a specified percentage of the Outstanding Securities of all series perform such action and for purposes of any decision or determination by the Trustee of amounts due and unpaid for the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on
the Securities of all series in respect of which moneys are to be disbursed ratably, the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Outstanding Securities denominated in a Foreign Currency will be the amount in U.S. Dollars based upon
exchange rates, determined as specified pursuant to Section 3.1 for Securities of such series, as of the date for determining whether the holders entitled to perform such action have performed it or as of the date of such decision or determination
by the Trustee, as the case may be. 


-19- 











                    (c)     Any decision or determination to be made regarding exchange rates shall be made by an agent appointed by the Company;
provided, that such agent shall accept such appointment in writing and the terms of such appointment shall, in the opinion of the Company at the time of such appointment, require such agent to make such determination by a method consistent with the
method provided pursuant to Section 3.1 for the making of such decision or determination. All decisions and determinations of such agent regarding exchange rates shall be in its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be
conclusive for all purposes and irrevocably binding upon the Company, the Trustee and all holders of the Securities. 


                    Section 3.12.      Judgments. The Company may provide pursuant to Section 3.1 for
Securities of any series that (a) the obligation, if any, of the Company to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of any series in a Foreign Currency or U.S. Dollars (the “Designated Currency”) as may be
specified pursuant to Section 3.1 is of the essence and agrees that, to the fullest extent possible under applicable law, judgments in respect of such Securities shall be given in the Designated Currency; (b) the obligation of the Company to make
payments in the Designated Currency of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Securities shall, notwithstanding any payment in any other Currency (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), be discharged only to the extent of
the amount in the Designated Currency that the holder receiving such payment may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase with the sum paid in such other Currency (after any premium and cost of exchange) on the business day in the
country of issue of the Designated Currency or in the international banking community (in the case of a composite currency) immediately following the day on which such holder receives such payment; (c) if the amount in the Designated Currency that
may be so purchased for any reason falls short of the amount originally due, the Company shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to compensate for such shortfall; and (d) any obligation of the Company not discharged by such payment
shall be due as a separate and independent obligation and, until discharged as provided herein, shall continue in full force and effect. 


                    Section 3.13.      CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing any Securities may use CUSIP
numbers, if then generally in use, and thereafter with respect to such series, the Trustee may use such numbers in any notice of redemption or exchange with respect to such series provided that any such notice may state that no representation is
made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption
shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers. 


ARTICLE IV 



REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 


                    Section 4.1.      Applicability of Right of Redemption. Redemption of Securities (other
than pursuant to a sinking fund or analogous provision) permitted by the terms of any series of Securities shall be made in accordance with such terms (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.1 for Securities of any series) in accordance
with this Article; provided, however, that if any such terms of a series of Securities shall conflict with any provision of this Article, the terms of such series shall govern. 


                    Section 4.2.      Selection of Securities to be Redeemed. 


                    (a)     If the Company shall at any time elect to redeem all or any portion of the Securities of a series then Outstanding, it
shall at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) notify the Trustee of such Redemption 


-20- 











Date and of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed, and thereupon the Trustee shall select by such manner as the Trustee shall deem reasonable, the Securities (or portions thereof) of such series to be redeemed.
Unless otherwise provided in the Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture provided for in Section 3.1, no Security of a denomination of $1,000 shall be redeemed in part and Securities may be redeemed in part only in integral multiples of
$1,000 (unless such Securities are issued in a denomination of less than $1,000 as described in Section 3.2) . In any case where more than one Registered Security of such series is registered in the same name, the Trustee shall treat the aggregate
principal amount so registered as if it were represented by one Registered Security of such series unless the Trustee is provided with contrary evidence respecting such treatment that in the Trustee’s reasonable opinion is credible. The Trustee
shall, as soon as practicable, notify the Company in writing of the Securities and portions of Securities so selected. 


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


                    Section 4.3.      Notice of Redemption. 


                    (a)     The election of the Company to redeem any Securities of any series shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. Notice of
redemption 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, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to the holders of Securities of any series
to be redeemed in whole or in part pursuant to this Article, in the manner provided in Section 16.5. Any notice so given shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice. Failure to give such
notice, or any defect in such notice to the holder of any Security of a series designated for redemption, in whole or in part, shall not affect the sufficiency of any notice of redemption with respect to the holder of any other Security of such
series. 


                    (b)     All notices of redemption shall identify the Securities to be redeemed (including CUSIP numbers) and shall state:


	          	          (i)     such
          election by the Company to redeem Securities of such series pursuant
          to provisions contained in this Indenture or the terms of the Securities
          of such series or a supplemental indenture establishing such series,
          if such be the case; 

                 (ii)     the
          Redemption Date; 

                 (iii)     the
          Redemption Price; 

                 (iv)     if
          less than all Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed,
          the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal
          amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed; 

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

                 (vi)     the
          Place or Places of Payment where such Securities are to be surrendered
          for payment of the Redemption Price, and that the Securities designated
    in such notice for redemp-



-21- 









	          	tion are required to be presented
          on or after such Redemption Date at the designated Place of Payment; 

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

                 (viii)     if
          any Security of any series is to be redeemed in part, that on and after
          the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, such Security
          will be canceled and a new Security or Securities of such series in
          aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof
          will be issued and delivered without charge to the holder or, in the
          case of Securities providing appropriate space for such notation, at
          the option of the holders, the Trustee, in lieu of delivering a new
          Security or Securities as aforesaid, may make a notation on such Security
    of the payment of the redeemed portion thereof. 



                    Section 4.4.      Deposit of Redemption Price. On or prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City
time, on the Redemption Date for any Registered Securities, 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 6.3) an amount of
money in same day funds in the Currency in which such Securities are denominated (except as provided pursuant to Section 3.1) sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of such Securities or any portions thereof that are to be redeemed on that date.



                    Section 4.5.      Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having
been given as aforesaid, any Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price and from and after such date (unless the Company shall Default in the payment of the Redemption Price) such
Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, the Company shall pay the Redemption Price with respect to such Securities; provided, however, that installments of interest
that have a Stated Maturity on or prior to the Redemption Date for such Securities shall be payable according to the terms of such Securities and the provisions of Section 3.8. 


                    If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and premium, if any, shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at
the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 


                    Section 4.6.      Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security that is to be redeemed only
in part shall be surrendered at the Corporate Trust Office or such other office or agency of the Company as is specified pursuant to Section 3.1 with, if the Company, the Registrar or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by the holder thereof or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing, and the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of like tenor and form, 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; except that if a Global Security is so surrendered, the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver to the Depositary for such Global Security, without service charge, a new Global Security in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Global Security so surrendered. In
the case of a Security providing appropriate space for such notation, at the option of the holder thereof, the Trustee, in lieu of delivering a new Security or Securities as aforesaid, may make a notation on such Security of the payment of the
redeemed portion thereof.

ARTICLE V 



SINKING FUNDS 


                    Section 5.1.      Applicability of Sinking Fund. 


                    (a)     Redemption of Securities permitted or required pursuant to a sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series
by the terms of such series of Securities shall be made in accordance with such terms of such series of Securities and this Article, except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.1 for Securities of such series, provided, however, that if any
such terms of a series of Securities shall conflict with any provision of this Article, the terms of such series shall govern. 


                    (b)     The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein
referred to as a “Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment,” and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “Optional Sinking Fund Payment.” If provided
for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 5.2. 


                    Section 5.2.      Mandatory Sinking Fund Obligation. The Company may, at its option,
satisfy any Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation, in whole or in part, with respect to a particular series of Securities by (1) delivering to the Trustee Securities of such series in transferable form theretofore purchased or otherwise acquired
by the Company or redeemed at the election of the Company pursuant to Section 4.3 or (2) receiving credit for Securities of such series (not previously so credited) acquired by the Company and theretofore delivered to the Trustee. The Trustee shall
credit such Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation with an amount equal to the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment shall be
reduced accordingly. If the Company shall elect to so satisfy any Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation, it shall deliver to the Trustee not less than 45 days prior to the relevant sinking fund payment date a written notice signed on behalf of
the Company by its Chairman of the Board of Directors, its President, one of its Vice Presidents, its Treasurer or one of its Assistant Treasurers, which shall designate the Securities (and portions thereof, if any) so delivered or credited and
which shall be accompanied by such Securities (to the extent not theretofore delivered) in transferable form. In case of the failure of the Company, at or before the time so required, to give such notice and deliver such Securities the Mandatory
Sinking Fund Payment obligation shall be paid entirely in moneys. 


                    Section 5.3.      Optional Redemption at Sinking Fund Redemption Price. In addition to
the sinking fund requirements of Section 5.2, to the extent, if any, provided for by the terms of a particular series of Securities, the Company may, at its option, make an Optional Sinking Fund Payment with respect to such Securities. Unless
otherwise provided by such terms, (a) to the extent that the right of the Company to make such Optional Sinking Fund Payment shall not be exercised in any year, it shall not be cumulative or carried forward to any subsequent year, and (b) such
optional payment shall operate to reduce the amount of any Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation as to Securities of the same series. If the Company intends to exercise its right to make such optional payment in any year it shall deliver to the
Trustee not less than 45 days prior to the relevant sinking fund payment date a certificate signed by its Chairman of the Board of Directors, its President, one of its Vice Presidents, its Treasurer or one of its Assistant Treasurers stating that
the Company will exercise such optional right, and specifying the amount which the Company will pay on or before the next succeeding sinking fund payment date. Such certificate shall also state that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing. 


-23- 











                    Section 5.4.      Application of Sinking Fund Payment. 


                    (a)     If the sinking fund payment or payments made in funds pursuant to either Section 5.2 or 5.3 with respect to a
particular series of Securities plus any unused balance of any preceding sinking fund payments made in funds with respect to such series shall exceed $50,000 (or a lesser sum if the Company shall so request, or such equivalent sum for Securities
denominated other than in U.S. Dollars), it shall be applied by the Trustee on the sinking fund payment date next following the date of such payment, unless the date of such payment shall be a sinking fund payment date, in which case such payment
shall be applied on such sinking fund payment date, to the redemption of Securities of such series at the Redemption Price specified pursuant to Section 4.3(b) . The Trustee shall select, in the manner provided in Section 4.2, for redemption on such
sinking fund payment date, a sufficient principal amount of Securities of such series to absorb said funds, as nearly as may be, and shall, at the expense and in the name of the Company, thereupon cause notice of redemption of the Securities to be
given in substantially the manner provided in Section 4.3(a) for the redemption of Securities, except that the notice of redemption shall also state that the Securities are being redeemed for the sinking fund. Any sinking fund moneys not so applied
by the Trustee to the redemption of Securities of such series shall be added to the next sinking fund payment received in funds by the Trustee and, together with such payment, shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4.
Any and all sinking fund moneys held by the Trustee on the last sinking fund payment date with respect to Securities of such series, and not held for the payment or redemption of particular Securities of such series, shall be applied by the Trustee
to the payment of the principal of the Securities of such series at maturity. 


                    (b)     On or prior to each sinking fund payment date, the Company shall pay to the Trustee a sum equal to all interest
accrued to the date fixed for redemption on Securities to be redeemed on such sinking fund payment date pursuant to this Section 5.4. 


                    (c)     The Trustee shall not redeem any Securities of a series with sinking fund moneys or mail any notice of redemption of
Securities of such series by operation of the sinking fund during the continuance of a Default in payment of interest on any Securities of such series or of any other Event of Default (other than an Event of Default occurring as a consequence of
this paragraph) of which the Trustee has actual knowledge, except that if the notice of redemption of any Securities of such series shall theretofore have been mailed in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Trustee shall redeem such Securities
if funds sufficient for that purpose shall be deposited with the Trustee in accordance with the terms of this Article. Except as aforesaid, any moneys in the sinking fund at the time any such Default or Event of Default shall occur and any moneys
thereafter paid into the sinking fund shall, during the continuance of such Default or Event of Default, be held as security for the payment of all the Securities of such series; provided, however, that in case such Default or Event of Default shall
have been cured or waived as provided herein, such moneys shall thereafter be applied on the next sinking fund payment date on which such moneys are required to be applied pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.4. 


ARTICLE VI 



PARTICULAR COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY 


                    The Company hereby covenants and agrees as follows: 


                    Section 6.1.      Payments of Securities. The Company will duly and punctually pay the
principal of and premium, if any, on each series of Securities, and the interest which shall have accrued thereon, at the dates and place and in the manner provided in the Securities and in this Indenture. 


-24- 











                    Section 6.2.      Paying Agent. 


                    (a)     The Company will maintain with respect to each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency where
Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of such 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 and this Indenture
may be served (the “Paying Agent”). The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of 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
Paying Agent to receive all presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 


                    (b)     The Company may also from time to time designate different or additional offices or agencies where the Securities of
any series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes (in or outside of such Place of Payment), and may from time to time rescind any such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner
relieve the Company of its obligations described in the preceding paragraph. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such additional designation or rescission of designation and of any change in the location of any such
different or additional office or agency. The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The
Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of each such agent. The Company or any Affiliate thereof may act as Paying Agent. 


                    Section 6.3.      To Hold Payment in Trust. 


                    (a)     If the Company or an Affiliate thereof shall at any time act as Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities,
then, on or before the date on which the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of that series by their terms or as a result of the calling thereof for redemption shall become payable, the Company or such Affiliate
will segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the holders of such Securities or the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all amounts payable to the Trustee under Section 11.1(a) and such principal and premium, if any, or interest which shall have
so become payable until such sums shall be paid to the Trustee and such holders or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and will notify the Trustee of its action or failure to act in that regard. Upon any proceeding under any federal bankruptcy
laws with respect to the Company or any Affiliate thereof, if the Company or such Affiliate is then acting as Paying Agent, the Trustee shall replace the Company or such Affiliate as Paying Agent. 


                    (b)     If the Company shall appoint, and at the time have, a Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of and premium, if
any, or interest on any series of Securities, then prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date on which the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of that series shall become payable as aforesaid, whether by
their terms or as a result of the calling thereof for redemption, the Company will deposit with such Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay all amounts payable to the Trustee under Section 11.1(a) and such principal and premium, if any, or interest,
such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the holders of such Securities or the Trustee, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee), the Company or any other obligor of such Securities will promptly notify the Trustee of its payment or
failure to make such payment. 


                    (c)     If the Paying Agent shall be other than the Trustee, the Company will cause such Paying Agent 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 6.3, that such Paying Agent shall: 


-25- 











	          	          (i)     hold
          all moneys held by it for the payment of the principal of and premium,
          if any, or interest on the Securities of that series in trust for the
          benefit of the holders of such Securities until such sums shall be
          paid to such holders or otherwise disposed of as herein provided; 

                 (ii)     give
          to the Trustee notice of any Default by the Company or any other obligor
          upon the Securities of that series in the making of any payment of
          the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on the Securities
          of that series; and 

                 (iii)     at
          any time during the continuance of any such Default, upon the written
          request of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust
    by such Paying Agent and account for any monies already paid. 



                    (d)     Anything
    in this Section 6.3 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may at any
    time, for the purpose of obtaining a release, satisfaction or discharge of
    this Indenture or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee
    all sums held in trust by the Company or by any Paying Agent other than the
    Trustee as required by this Section 6.3, 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. 


                    (e)     Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the
principal of and premium, if any, or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company upon Company Request
along with any interest that has accumulated thereon as a result of such money being invested at the direction of the Company, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust, and the holder of such Security shall thereafter, as
an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment of such amounts without interest thereon, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee
thereof, shall 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 transmitted in the manner and to the extent provided by Section
16.5, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such mailing, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.



                    Section 6.4.      Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets. 


                    (a)     The Company will not consolidate with any other entity or accept a merger of any other entity into the Company or
permit the Company to be merged into any other entity, or sell, all or substantially all of its assets to another entity, or lease all or substantially all of its assets to another entity, unless (i) either the Company shall be the continuing
entity, or the successor, transferee or lessee entity (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume, by indenture supplemental hereto satisfactory to the Trustee, executed and delivered by such entity prior to or simultaneously with such
consolidation, merger, sale or lease, the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest and premium, if any, on all the Securities, according to their tenor, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all other obligations to
the holders and the Trustee under this Indenture or under the Securities to be performed or observed by the Company; (ii) if as a result of such transaction the Securities become exchangeable into common stock or other equity securities issued by a
third party, such third party assumes or fully and unconditionally guarantees all obligations of the Company under the Securities (including under any Officers’ Certificate of the Company or indenture supplemental applicable thereto); and (iii)
immediately after such consolidation, merger, sale or lease the Company or the successor, transferee or 


-26- 











lessee entity (if other than the Company) would not be in Default in the performance of any covenant or condition of this Indenture. 


                    (b)     Upon any consolidation with or merger into any other entity, or any sale, of all or substantially all of its assets to
another entity, or any conveyance or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in accordance with this Section 6.4, the successor entity formed by such consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged or to which the
Company is sold or to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor entity had been
named as the Company herein, and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the predecessor Company shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities, and from time to time such successor entity may exercise
each and every right and power of the Company under this Indenture, in the name of the Company, or in its own name; and any act or proceeding by any provision of this Indenture required or permitted to be done by the Board of Directors or any
officer of the Company may be done with like force and effect by the like board or officer of any entity that shall at the time be the successor of the Company hereunder. In the event of any such sale or conveyance, but not any such lease, the
Company (or any successor entity which shall theretofore have become such in the manner described in this Section 6.4) shall be discharged from all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities and may thereupon be dissolved and
liquidated. 


                    Section 6.5.      Compliance Certificate. The Company shall furnish to the Trustee
annually, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a brief certificate from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer as to his or her knowledge of the Company’s compliance with all
conditions and covenants under this Indenture (which compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided under this Indenture) and, in the event of any Default, specifying each such Default and the
nature and status thereof of which such person may have knowledge. Such certificates need not comply with Section 16.1 of this Indenture. 


                    Section 6.6.      Conditional Waiver by Holders of Securities. Anything in this
Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may fail or omit in any particular instance to comply with a covenant or condition set forth herein with respect to any series of Securities if the Company shall have obtained and filed with the
Trustee, prior to the time of such failure or omission, evidence (as provided in Article VIII) of the consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series at the time Outstanding, either waiving such
compliance in such instance or generally waiving compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, or impair any right consequent thereon
and, until such waiver shall have become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 


                    Section 6.7.      Statement by Officers as to Default. The Company shall deliver to the
Trustee as soon as possible and in any event within five days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Default or an event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, an
Officers’ Certificate setting forth the details of such Default or Event of Default and the action which the Company proposes to take with respect thereto. 


                    Section 6.8.      Existence. Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 6.4, the
Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, material rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that the Company will not be required to preserve any
such right or franchise if the Board of Directors or senior manage-


-27- 











ment of the Company determines that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company. 


ARTICLE VII 



REMEDIES OF TRUSTEE AND SECURITYHOLDERS 


                    Section 7.1.      Events of Default. Except where otherwise indicated by the context or

a particular series or it is specifically deleted or modified in the manner contemplated in Section 3.1: 

	          	          (a)     the
          failure of the Company to pay any installment of interest on any Security
          of such series when and as the same shall become payable, which failure
          shall have continued unre-medied for a period of 30 days; 

                 (b)     the
          failure of the Company to pay the principal of (and premium, if any,

          (otherwise than pursuant to a sinking fund), by declaration as authorized
          by this Indenture or otherwise; 

                 (c)     the
          failure of the Company to pay a sinking fund installment, if any, when
          and as the same shall become payable by the terms of a Security of
          such series, which failure shall have continued unremedied for a period
          of 30 days; 

                 (d)     the
          failure of the Company, subject to the provisions of Section 6.6, to
          perform any covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture (including
          any indenture supplemental hereto pursuant to which the Securities
          of such series were issued as contemplated by Section 3.1) (other than
          a covenant or agreement which has been expressly included in this Indenture
          solely for the benefit of a series of Securities other than that series
          and other than a covenant or agreement a default in the performance
          of which is elsewhere in this Section 7.1 specifically addressed),
          which failure shall not have been remedied, or without provision deemed
          to be adequate for the remedying thereof having been made, for a period
          of 90 days after written notice shall have been given to the Company
          by the Trustee or shall have been given to the Company and the Trustee
          by holders of 25% or more in aggregate principal amount of the Securities
          of such series then Outstanding, specifying such failure, requiring
          the Company to remedy the same and stating that such notice is a “Notice
          of Default” hereunder; 

                 (e)     the
          entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of a decree or
          order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case under
          the federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any
          other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar
          law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator,
          assignee, custodian, trustee or sequestrator (or similar official)
          of the Company or of substantially all the property of the Company
          or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs and such decree
          or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive
          days; 

                 (f)     the
          commencement by the Company of a voluntary case under the federal bankruptcy
          laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable federal
          or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter
          in effect, or the consent by the Company to the entry of an order for
          relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or the consent by
    the Com-



-28- 









	          	pany to the appointment of
          or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
          custodian or sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or of
          substantially all the property of the Company 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 action; or 

                 (g)     the
          occurrence of any other Event of Default with respect to Securities
          of such series as provided in a supplemental indenture or Officers’ Certificate,
    if any, applicable to such series of Securities. 



                    Section 7.2.      Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. 


                    (a)     If any one or more of the above-described Events of Default shall happen with respect to Securities of any series at
the time Outstanding, then, and in each and every such case, during the continuance of any such Event of Default, the Trustee or the holders of 25% or more in principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding may (and upon the
written request of the holders of a majority in principal amount of such Securities then Outstanding, the Trustee shall) declare the principal (or, if the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the
principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of and all accrued but unpaid interest on all the Securities of such series then Outstanding, if not then due and payable, to be due and payable, and upon any such declaration the
same shall become and be immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture or in the Securities of such series contained to the contrary notwithstanding; provided that no Event of Default with respect to Securities of a series, except with
respect to an Event of Default under subsections (e) and (f) of Section 7.1 and except to the extent otherwise provided in subsection (d) of Section 7.1, shall constitute an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any other series. Upon
payment of such amounts in the Currency in which such Securities are denominated (except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 3.1), all obligations of the Company in respect of the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities of such
series shall terminate. 


                    (b)     Section 7.2(a), however, is subject to the condition that, if at any time after the principal of all the Securities of
such series, to which any one or more of the above-described Events of Default is applicable, shall have been so declared to be due and payable, and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as
hereinafter in this Article provided, 



                    (i)     the
        Company has paid or deposited with the Paying Agent a sum in the Currency
        in which such Securities are denominated (except as otherwise provided
    pursuant to Section 3.1) sufficient to pay  





	          	          	           (A)     all
          amounts owing the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder, including,
          without limitation, Section 11.1(a) (provided, however, that all sums
          payable under this clause (A) shall be paid in U.S. Dollars); 

                 (B)     all
          arrears of interest, if any, upon all the Securities of such series
          (with interest, to the extent that interest thereon shall be legally
          enforceable, on any overdue installment of interest at the rate borne
          by the Securities); 

                 (C)     the
          principal of and premium, if any, on any Securities of such series
          that have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration
    and interest thereon; and 





-29- 










	          	          	          (D)     all
        other sums payable under this Indenture on the Securities of such series;
    and 
	 	 	 
	 	          (ii)     every
        other Default and Event of Default under this Indenture shall have been
        resolved in accordance with this Indenture so that the conditions that
        caused such Default or Event of Default are no longer outstanding or
        have otherwise been remedied to the reasonable satisfaction of the holders
        of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of such series then
        Outstanding, or provision deemed by such holders to be adequate therefor
        shall have been made, then and in every such case the holders of a majority
        in principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding
        may, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, on behalf of the
        holders of all the Securities of such series, waive the Event of Default
        by reason of which the principal of the Securities of such series shall
        have been so declared to be due and payable and may rescind and annul
        such declaration and its consequences; provided, however, that no such
        waiver, rescission or annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent
    Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 




                    (c)     Any declaration by the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall be by written notice to the Company, and any
declaration or waiver by the holders of Securities of any series pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall be by written notice to the Company and the Trustee. 


                    (d)     For all purposes under this Indenture, if a portion of the principal of any Original Issue Discount Securities shall
have been accelerated and declared due and payable pursuant to the provisions hereof, then, from and after such declaration, unless such declaration has been rescinded and annulled, the principal amount of such Original Issue Discount Securities
shall be deemed, for all purposes hereunder, to be such portion of the principal thereof as shall be due and payable as a result of such acceleration, and payment of such portion of the principal thereof as shall be due and payable as a result of
such acceleration, together with interest, if any, thereon and all other amounts owing thereunder, shall constitute payment in full of such Original Issue Discount Securities. 


                    (e)     The Company and the Trustee may, to the extent provided in Article XIV, enter into one or more indentures supplemental
hereto with respect to any series of the Securities which may provide for additional or different Events of Default with respect to such series of Securities. 


                    Section 7.3.      Other Remedies. If the Company shall fail for a period of 30 days to
pay any installment of interest on the Securities of any series or shall fail to pay the principal of and premium, if any, on any of the Securities of such series when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at Maturity, or by call for
redemption (other than pursuant to the sinking fund), by declaration as authorized by this Indenture, or otherwise, or shall fail for a period of 30 days to make any sinking fund payment as to a series of Securities, then, upon demand of the
Trustee, the Company will pay to the Paying Agent for the benefit of the holders of Securities of such series then Outstanding the whole amount which then shall have become due and payable on all the Securities of such series, with interest on the
overdue principal and premium, if any, and (so far as the same may be legally enforceable) on the overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Securities of such series, and all amounts owing the Trustee and any predecessor trustee
hereunder, including, without limitation, under Section 11.1(a) . 


                    In case the Company shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any
action or proceeding at law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company or any
other obligor upon the Securities of such series, and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable out of the property of the Company or any other obligor 


-30- 











upon the Securities of such series, wherever situated, in the manner provided by law. All rights of action upon or under any of the Securities or this Indenture may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any
of the Securities and without the production of any thereof at any trial or any proceeding relative thereto. 


                    Section 7.4.      Trustee as Attorney-in-Fact. The Trustee is hereby appointed, and
each and every holder of the Securities, by receiving and holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed to have appointed the Trustee, the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of such holder, with authority to make or file (whether or not the Company
shall be in Default in respect of the payment of the principal of, or interest on, any of the Securities), in its own name and as trustee of an express trust or otherwise as it shall deem advisable, in any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or to their respective creditors or property, any and all claims, proofs of claim, proofs of debt, petitions, consents, other
papers and documents and amendments of any thereof, as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder and of the holders of the Securities allowed in any such proceeding and to collect
and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim, and to execute and deliver any and all other papers and documents and to do and perform any and all other acts and things, as it may deem necessary or advisable in
order to enforce in any such proceeding any of the claims of the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder and of any of such holders in respect of any of the Securities; and any receiver, assignee, trustee, custodian or debtor in any such
proceeding is hereby authorized, and each and every taker or holder of the Securities, by receiving and holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed to have authorized any such receiver, assignee, trustee, custodian or debtor, to make any such
payment or delivery only to or on the order of the Trustee, and to pay to the Trustee any amount due it and any predecessor trustee hereunder, including, without limitation, under Section 11.1(a); provided, however, that nothing herein contained
shall be deemed to authorize or empower the Trustee to consent to or accept or adopt, on behalf of any holder of Securities, any plan of reorganization or readjustment affecting the Securities or the rights of any holder thereof, or to authorize or
empower the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any holder of any Securities in any such proceeding. 


                    Section 7.5.      Priorities. Any moneys or properties collected by the Trustee with
respect to a series of Securities under this Article VII shall be applied in the order following, subject, in each case, to any subordination provisions that are applicable to such series of Securities at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for
the distribution of such moneys or properties and, in the case of the distribution of such moneys or properties on account of the Securities of any series, upon presentation of the Securities of such series, and stamping thereon the payment, if only
partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid: 

	            	          First:
          To the payment of all amounts due to the Trustee and any predecessor
          trustee hereunder, including, without limitation, under Section 11.1(a). 

                 Second:
          In case the principal of the Outstanding Securities of such series
          shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of interest
          on the Securities of such series, in the chronological order of the
          Maturity of the installments of such interest, with interest (to the
          extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon the
          overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by such Securities,
          such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto. 

                 Third:
          In case the principal of the Outstanding Securities of such series
          shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, to the payment
    of the whole amount then owing and un-





-31- 










	          	paid upon the Securities of such series for
        principal and premium, if any, and interest, with interest on the overdue
        principal and premium, if any, and (to the extent that such interest
        has been collected by the Trustee) upon overdue installments of interest
        at the rate borne by the Securities of such series, and in case such
        moneys shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amounts so due
        and unpaid upon the Securities of such series, then to the payment of
        such principal and premium, if any, and interest without preference or
        priority of principal and premium, if any, over interest, or of interest
        over principal and premium, if any, or of any installment of interest
        over any other installment of interest, or of any Security of such series
        over any other Security of such series, ratably to the aggregate of such
    principal and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest. 


Any surplus then remaining shall be paid to the Company or as directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. 


                    Section 7.6.      Control by Securityholders; Waiver of Past Defaults. The holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee hereunder, or of exercising any trust or power hereby
conferred upon the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series, provided, however, that, subject to the provisions of Sections 11.1 and 11.2, 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 be unduly prejudicial to holders not joining in such direction or would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to any declaration accelerating the
Maturity of the Securities of any series, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such series of Securities at the time Outstanding may on behalf of the holders of all of the Securities of such series waive any past Default or
Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except a Default in the payment of interest or any premium on or the principal of the Securities of such series. Upon any such waiver the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Securities of such
series shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any Default or Event of
Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 7.6, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Securities of such series and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing. 


                    Section 7.7.      Limitation on Suits. No holder of any Security of any series shall
have any right to institute any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity for the execution of any trust hereunder or for the appointment of a receiver or for any other remedy hereunder, in each case with respect to an Event of Default with
respect to such series of Securities, unless such holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of the happening of one or more of the Events of Default herein specified with respect to such series of Securities, and unless also
the holders of 25% in principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding shall have requested the Trustee in writing to take action in respect of the matter complained of, and unless also there shall have been offered to the Trustee
security and indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for 60 days after receipt of such notification, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused
to institute any such action, suit or proceeding, and unless no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by holders of 25% in principal amount of the Securities of such series
then Outstanding; and such notification, request and offer of indemnity are hereby declared in every such case to be conditions precedent to any such action, suit or proceeding by any holder of any Security of such series; it being understood and
intended that no one or more of the holders of Securities of such series shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by his, her, its or their action to enforce any right hereunder, except in the manner herein provided, and 


-32- 











that every action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner herein provided and for the equal benefit of all holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series;
provided, however, that nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities of such series shall affect or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities
of such series to the respective holders of such Securities at the respective due dates in such Securities stated, or affect or impair the right, which is also absolute and unconditional, of such holders to institute suit to enforce the payment
thereof. 


                    Section 7.8.      Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture and each holder
of any Security, by such holder’s acceptance thereof, shall be deemed to have agreed that any court may in its discretion require, in any action, suit or proceeding for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any
action, suit or proceeding against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such action, suit or proceeding of an undertaking to pay the costs of such action, suit or proceeding, and that such
court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such action, suit or proceeding, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such
party litigant; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 7.8 shall not apply to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee, to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by any one or more holders of Securities holding in
the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Securities of any series Outstanding, or to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by any holder of Securities of any series for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or premium,
if any, or the interest on, any of the Securities of such series, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Securities. 


                    Section 7.9.      Remedies Cumulative. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to
the Trustee or to the holders of Securities of any series is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or remedies, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or by statute. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of the Securities of any series to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or power or
shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein; and every power and remedy given by this Article VII to the Trustee and to the holders of Securities of any series, respectively, may be exercised
from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Trustee or by the holders of Securities of such series, as the case may be. In case the Trustee or any holder of Securities of any series shall have proceeded to enforce any right
under this Indenture and the proceedings for the enforcement thereof shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of waiver or for any other reason or shall have been adjudicated adversely to the Trustee or to such holder of Securities, then
and in every such case the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Securities of such series shall severally and respectively be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, and thereafter all rights, remedies and powers of the
Trustee and the holders of the Securities of such series shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken, except as to any matters so waived or adjudicated. 


ARTICLE VIII 



CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS 


                    Section 8.1.      Evidence of Action of Securityholders. Whenever in this Indenture it
is provided that the holders of a specified percentage or a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities or of any series of Securities may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent
or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action the holders of such specified percentage or majority have joined therein 


-33- 











may be evidenced by (a) any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by Secu-rityholders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing (such action becoming effective, except as herein
otherwise expressly provided, when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company), or (b) by the record of the holders of Securities voting in favor thereof at any meeting of
Securityholders duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article IX, or (c) by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of Securityholders. 


                    Section 8.2.      Proof of Execution or Holding of Securities. Proof of the execution
of any instrument by a Securityholder or his, her or its agent or proxy and proof of the holding by any Person of any of the Securities shall be sufficient if made in the following manner: 

	          	          (a)     The
          fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument
          may be proved (i) by the certificate of any notary public or other
          officer in any jurisdiction who, by the laws thereof, has power to
          take acknowledgments or proof of deeds to be recorded within such jurisdiction,
          that the Person who signed such instrument did acknowledge before such
          notary public or other officer the execution thereof, or (ii) by the
          affidavit of a witness of such execution sworn to before any such notary
          or other officer. Where such execution is by a Person acting in other
          than his or her individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit
          shall also constitute sufficient proof of his or her authority. 

                 (b)     The
          ownership of Registered Securities of any series shall be proved by
          the Register of such Securities or by a certificate of the Registrar
          for such series. 

                 (c)     The
          record of any holders’ meeting shall be proved in the manner provided
          in Section 9.6. 

                 (d)     The
          Trustee may require such additional proof of any matter referred to
          in this Section 8.2 as it shall deem appropriate or necessary, so long
          as the request is a reasonable one. 

                 (e)     If
          the Company shall solicit from the holders of Securities of any series
          any action, the Company may, at its option, by Board Resolution, fix
          in advance a record date for the determination of holders of Registered
          Securities entitled to take such action, but the Company shall have
          no obligation to do so. Any such record date shall be fixed at the
          Company’s discretion. If such a record date is fixed, such action
          may be sought or given before or after the record date, but only the
          holders of Registered Securities of record at the close of business
          on such record date shall be deemed to be holders of Registered Securities
          for the purpose of determining whether holders of the requisite proportion
          of Outstanding Securities of such series have authorized or agreed
          or consented to such action, and for that purpose the Outstanding Registered
    Securities of such series shall be computed as of such record date. 



                    Section 8.3.      Persons Deemed Owners. 


                    (a)     The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Registered
Security is registered as the owner of such Registered Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on, such Registered Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such
Registered Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. All payments made to any holder, or upon his, her or its order, shall be valid, and, to the
extent of the sum or sums paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable upon such Security. 


-34- 











                    (b)     None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any
aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 


                    Section 8.4.      Revocation of Consents. At any time prior to (but not after) the
evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 8.1, of the taking of any action by the holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities or of any series of Securities specified in this Indenture in connection with such
action, any holder of a Security which is shown by the evidence to be included in the Securities the holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at its principal office and upon proof of holding as
provided in Section 8.2, revoke such action so far as concerns such Security. Except as aforesaid, any such action taken by the holder of any Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of such Security, and
of any Securities issued on transfer or in lieu thereof or in exchange or substitution therefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Security or such other Securities or any Security issued in exchange or
substitution therefor.

                    Section 9.1.      Purposes of Meetings. A meeting of Securityholders of any or all
series may be called at any time and from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX for any of the following purposes:

          give any notice to the Company or to the Trustee, or to give any directions
          to the Trustee, or to consent to the waiving of any Default hereunder
          and its consequences, or to take any other action authorized to be
          taken by Securityholders pursuant to any of the provisions of Article

                 (b)     to
          remove the Trustee and nominate a successor trustee pursuant to the
          provisions of Article XI; 

                 (c)     to
          consent to the execution of an Indenture or of indentures supplemental
          hereto pursuant to the provisions of Section 14.2; or

          of any one or more or all series, as the case may be, under any other
    provision of this Indenture or under applicable law. 



                    Section 9.2.      Call of Meetings by Trustee. The Trustee may at any time call a
meeting of all Securityholders of all series that may be affected by the action proposed to be taken, to take any action specified in Section 9.1, to be held at such time and at such place as the Trustee shall determine. Notice of every meeting of
the Securityholders of a series, setting forth the time and the place of such meeting and in general terms the action proposed to be taken at such meeting, shall be mailed to holders of Securities of such series at their addresses as they shall
appear on the Register of the Company. Such notice shall be mailed not less than 20 nor more than 90 days prior to the date fixed for the meeting. 


                    Section 9.3.      Call of Meetings by Company or Securityholders. In case at any time
the Company, pursuant to a resolution of its Board of Directors, or the holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a series (or of all series, as the case may be) then Outstanding that 


-35- 











may be affected by the action proposed to be taken, shall have requested the Trustee to call a meeting of Securityholders of such series (or of all series), by written request setting forth in reasonable detail the action
proposed to be taken at the meeting, and the Trustee shall not have mailed the notice of such meeting within 20 days after receipt of such request, then the Company or such Securityholders may determine the time and the place for such meeting and
may call such meeting to take any action authorized in Section 9.1, by mailing notice thereof as provided in Section 9.2. 


                    Section 9.4.      Qualifications for Voting. To be entitled to vote at any meeting of
Secu-rityholders, a Person shall (a) be a holder of one or more Securities affected by the action proposed to be taken at the meeting or (b) be a Person appointed by an instrument in writing as proxy by a holder of one or more such Securities. The
only Persons who shall be entitled to be present or to speak at any meeting of Securityholders shall be the Persons entitled to vote at such meeting and their counsel and any representatives of the Trustee and its counsel and any representatives of
the Company and its counsel. 


                    Section 9.5.      Regulation of Meetings. 


                    (a)     Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee may make such reasonable regulations as it may
deem advisable for any meeting of Securityholders, in regard to proof of the holding of Securities and of the appointment of proxies, and in regard to the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and examination of proxies,
certificates and other evidence of the right to vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting as it shall deem fit. 


                    (b)     The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall
have been called by the Company or by Securityholders as provided in Section 9.3, in which case the Company or the Securityholders calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like manner appoint a temporary chair. A permanent chairman and a
permanent secretary of the meeting shall be elected by majority vote of the meeting. 


                    (c)     At any meeting of Securityholders of a series, each Securityholder of such series of such Securityholder’s proxy
shall be entitled to one vote for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities of such series Outstanding held or represented by him; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in respect of any Security challenged as not
Outstanding and ruled by the chairman of the meeting to be not Outstanding. The chairman of the meeting shall have no right to vote other than by virtue of Securities of such series held by him or her or instruments in writing as aforesaid duly
designating him or her as the Person to vote on behalf of other Securityholders. At any meeting of the Securityholders duly called pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.2 or 9.3 the presence of Persons holding or representing Securities in an
aggregate principal amount sufficient to take action upon the business for the transaction of which such meeting was called shall be necessary to constitute a quorum, and any such meeting may be adjourned from time to time by a majority of those
present, whether or not constituting a quorum, and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice. 


                    Section 9.6.      Voting. The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of
Secu-rityholders of a series shall be by written ballots on which shall be subscribed the signatures of the holders of Securities of such series or of their representatives by proxy and the principal amounts of the Securities of such series held or
represented by them. The permanent chairman of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count all votes cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make and file with the secretary of the meeting their verified
written reports in duplicate of all votes cast at the meeting. A record in duplicate of the proceedings of each meeting of Securityholders shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the original
reports of the inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more Persons having knowledge of the facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that said notice was 


-36- 











mailed as provided in Section 9.2 or Section 9.3. The record shall show the principal amounts of the Securities voting in favor of or against any resolution. The record shall be signed and verified by the affidavits of the
permanent chairman and secretary of the meeting and one of the duplicates shall be delivered to the Company and the other to the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee. 


                    Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated. 


                    Section 9.7.      No Delay of Rights by Meeting. Nothing contained in this Article IX
shall be deemed or construed to authorize or permit, by reason of any call of a meeting of Securityholders of any series or any rights expressly or impliedly conferred hereunder to make such call, any hindrance or delay in the exercise of any right
or rights conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Security-holders of such series under any of the provisions of this Indenture or of the Securities of such series.

provisions of this Section 10.1, file a copy of such report with each stock exchange upon which the Securities are listed, if any, and also with the SEC in respect of a Security listed and registered on a national securities exchange, if any. The
Company agrees to notify the Trustee when, as and if the Securities become listed on any stock exchange. 


                    The Company will reimburse the Trustee for all expenses incurred in the preparation and transmission of any report pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.1 and of Section 10.2.



                    Section 10.2.      Reports by the Company.

Trust Indenture Act, such additional information, documents and reports with respect to compliance by the Company with the conditions and covenants provided for in this Indenture. 


                    (c)     The Company shall transmit to the holders of Securities, within 30 days after the filing thereof with the Trustee

          form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time
          such list is furnished; provided, however, that so long as the Trustee

ARTICLE XI 

  

  CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE 


                    Section 11.1.      Rights of Trustees; Compensation and Indemnity. The Trustee accepts
the trusts created by this Indenture upon the terms and conditions hereof, including the following, to all of which the parties hereto and the holders from time to time of the Securities agree: 

	          	          (a)     The
          Trustee shall be entitled to such reasonable compensation as the Company
          and the Trustee shall from time to time agree for all services rendered
          by it hereunder (including in any agent capacity in which it acts).
          The compensation of the Trustee shall not be limited by any provision
          of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust.
          The Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon its request for
          all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred
          or made by the Trustee (including the reasonable expenses and disbursements
          of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or
          advance as may be attributable to its gross negligence, bad faith or
          willful misconduct. 

                 The
          Company also agrees to indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor
          Trustee hereunder for, and to hold it harmless against, any and all
          loss, liability, damage, claim, or expense incurred without its own
          gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, arising out of or
          in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or
          trusts hereunder and the performance of its duties (including in any
          agent capacity in which it acts), as well as the costs and expenses
          of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with
          the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.
          The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which
    it may seek indemnity; provided, however, that the failure of the 





-38- 










	          	Trustee to so notify the Company
          shall not limit, impair or diminish the Company’s obligation to
          indemnify the Trustee for any such claim. The Company shall defend
          the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense; provided,
          however, that the Trustee may have one separate counsel and the Company
          shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company
          need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent
          shall not be unreasonably withheld. 

                 As
          security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under
          this Section 11.1(a), the Trustee shall have a lien therefor on any
          moneys or properties held by the Trustee hereunder to the extent of
          such obligations. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Indenture
          to the contrary, the obligations of the Company to compensate and indemnify
          the Trustee under this Section 11.1(a) shall survive the resignation
          or removal of the Trustee and any satisfaction and discharge of this
          Indenture. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after
          an Event of Default specified in clause (e) or (f) of Section 7.1 occurs,
          the expenses and compensation for the services are intended to constitute
          expenses of administration under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy,
          insolvency or similar laws. 

                 (b)     The
          Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and perform
          any duty hereunder either directly or by its agents and attorneys and
          shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part
          of any agent or attorney appointed in good faith by it hereunder. 

                 (c)     The
          Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for the correctness
          of the recitals herein or in the Securities (except its certificates
          of authentication thereon) contained, all of which are made solely
          by the Company; and the Trustee shall not be responsible or accountable
          in any manner whatsoever for or with respect to the validity or execution
          or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities (except its certificates
          of authentication thereon), and the Trustee makes no representation
          with respect thereto. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the
          use or application by the Company of any Securities, or the proceeds
          of any Securities, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any
          statement by the Company in any document issued in connection with
          the sale of the Securities. 

                 (d)     The
          Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and, to the extent
          permitted by Section 11.2, any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and
          complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken
          or suffered by the Trustee hereunder in good faith and in accordance
          with such Opinion of Counsel. 

                 (e)     The
          Trustee, to the extent permitted by Section 11.2, may rely upon the
          certificate of the Secretary or one of the Assistant Secretaries of
          the Company as to the adoption of any resolution by the Board of Directors
          or stockholders of the Company, and any request, direction, order or
          demand of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced
          by, and whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee
          shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior
          to taking, offering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee may
          rely upon, an Officers’ Certificate of the Company (unless other
          evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed). 

                 (f)     Subject
          to Section 11.4, the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee, in its individual
          or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities
          and, subject to Sections 310(b) and 311 of the Trust Indenture Act,
          may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have
    had if it were not the Trustee or such agent. 





-39- 










	          	          (g)     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 with the Company. 

                 (h)     Any
          action taken by the Trustee pursuant to any provision hereof at the
          request or with the consent of any Person who at the time is the holder
          of any Security shall be conclusive and binding in respect of such
          Security upon all future holders thereof or of any Security or Securities
          which may be issued for or in lieu thereof in whole or in part, whether
          or not such Security shall have noted thereon the fact that such request
          or consent had been made or given. 

                 (i)     The
          Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining
          from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
          opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture
          or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have
          been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. 

                 (j)     The
          Trustee shall not be under any obligation to exercise any of the rights
          or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction
          of any of the holders of the Securities, pursuant to any provision
          of this Indenture, unless one or more of the holders of the Securities
          shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably
          satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which
          may be incurred by it therein or thereby. 

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

                 (l)     The
          Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of any Default
          or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has
          actual knowledge thereof or unless the Company or the holders of not
          less than 25% of the Outstanding Securities notify the Trustee thereof. 

                 (m)     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. 

                 (n)     The
          rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the
          Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified,
          are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of
    its capacities hereunder. 





                    Section 11.2.      Duties of Trustee. 


                    (a)     If one or more of the Events of Default specified in Section 7.1 with respect to the Securities of any series shall
have happened, then, during the continuance thereof, the Trustee shall, with respect to such Securities, exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and shall use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 


                    (b)     None of the provisions of this Indenture shall be construed as relieving the Trustee from liability for its own
grossly negligent action, grossly negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that, anything in this Indenture contained to the contrary notwithstanding, unless and 


-40- 











until an Event of Default specified in Section 7.1 with respect to the Securities of any series shall have happened which at the time is continuing, 

	          	          (i)     the
          Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties with
          respect to the Securities of that series as are specifically set out
          in this Indenture; and 

                 (ii)     no
          implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture
          against the Trustee, whose duties and obligations shall be determined
    solely by the express provisions of this Indenture. 





                    (c)     The Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed
therein, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, upon certificates and opinions furnished to it pursuant to the express provisions of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which, by the provisions of
this Indenture, are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the
accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). 


                    (d)     The Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Securities or to any other Person for any error of judgment made in
good faith by a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts. 


                    (e)     The Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Securities or to any other Person with respect to any action taken or
omitted to be taken by it in good faith, in accordance with the direction of Securityholders given as provided in this Indenture, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to it or exercising any
trust or power conferred upon it by this Indenture, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent with respect to such action or inaction. 


                    (f)     None of the provisions of this Indenture shall be construed as requiring the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds
or otherwise to incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there shall be reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity
against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 


                    (g)     The Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture and that the statements made
by it in the Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1 delivered to the Company are, to the knowledge of the Trustee, true and accurate, subject to the qualifications set forth therein. 


                    (h)     Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting
the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 11.2. 


                    Section 11.3.      Notice of Defaults. Within 90 days after the occurrence thereof, and
if actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall give to the holders of the Securities of a series notice of each Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series actually known to a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee, by transmitting such notice to holders at their addresses as the same shall then appear on the Register of the Company, unless such Default shall have been cured before the giving of such notice (the term “Default”
being hereby defined to be the events specified in Section 7.1, which are, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, Events of Default as defined in said Section). Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of the
principal of, 


-41- 











premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of such series when and as the same shall become payable, or to make any sinking fund payment as to Securities of the same series, the Trustee shall be protected in
withholding such notice, if and so long as the board of directors of the Trustee or a committee of the Trustee’s Responsible Officers in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the holders of the
Securities of such series. 


                    Section 11.4.      Eligibility; Disqualification. 


                    (a)     The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA Section 310(a). The Trustee shall have a combined
capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition, and shall have a Corporate Trust Office. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of
this Section 11.4, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 


                    (b)     The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation
of TIA Section 310(b)(i) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Company are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section
310(b)(i) are met. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by,
and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. If Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act is amended any time after the date of this Indenture to change the circumstances under which a Trustee shall be deemed to have
a conflicting interest with respect to the Securities of any series or to change any of the definitions in connection therewith, this Section 11.4 shall be automatically amended to incorporate such changes. 


                    Section 11.5.      Registration and Notice; Removal. The Trustee, or any successor to
it hereafter appointed, may at any time resign and be discharged of the trusts hereby created with respect to any one or more or all series of Securities by giving to the Company notice in writing and by mailing notice thereof to the holders of
Securities of such series at their addresses as the same shall then appear in the Register of the Company. Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Trustee and the acceptance of such appointment by such successor
Trustee. Any Trustee hereunder may be removed with respect to any series of Securities at any time by the filing with such Trustee and the delivery to the Company of an instrument or instruments in writing signed by the holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding, specifying such removal and the date when it shall become effective. 


          If at any time: 

	          	          (1)             the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of TIA Section
        310(b) 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 11.4 and shall
        fail to resign 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 

                 (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, 





-42- 











then, in any such case, (i) the Company, by a Board Resolution or pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate, may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii) subject to TIA
Section 315(e), any Securityholder 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. 


                    Upon its resignation or removal, any Trustee shall be entitled to the payment of reasonable compensation for the services rendered hereunder by such Trustee and to the payment of all reasonable
expenses incurred hereunder and all moneys then due to it hereunder. The Trustee’s rights to indemnification provided in Section 11.1(a) shall survive its resignation or removal. 


                    Section 11.6.      Successor Trustee by Appointment. 


                    (a)     In case at any time the Trustee shall resign, or shall be removed, or shall become incapable of acting, or shall be
adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or if a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or if 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 with respect to the Securities of one or more series, a successor Trustee 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 series) may be appointed by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of that or those series then
Outstanding, by an instrument or instruments in writing signed in duplicate by such holders and filed, one original thereof with the Company and the other with the successor Trustee; but, until a successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the
holders of Securities of that or those series as herein authorized, the Company by a resolution of its Board of Directors, or, in case all or substantially all the assets of the Company shall be in the possession of one or more custodians or
receivers lawfully appointed, or of trustees in bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings (including a trustee or trustees appointed under the provisions of the federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted), or of assignees for the
benefit of creditors, such receivers, custodians, trustees or assignees, as the case may be, by an instrument in writing, shall appoint a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. Subject to the provisions of Sections 11.4 and
11.5, upon the appointment as aforesaid of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series shall cease to be Trustee hereunder. After any such appointment other than by the
holders of Securities of that or those series, the Person making such appointment shall forthwith cause notice thereof to be mailed to the holders of Securities of such series at their addresses as the same shall then appear on the Register of the
Company. 


                    (b)     If any Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall resign because of conflicting interest as
provided in Section 11.4(b) and a successor Trustee shall not have been appointed by the Company or by the holders of the Securities of such series or, if any successor Trustee so appointed shall not have accepted its appointment within 30 days
after such appointment shall have been made, the resigning Trustee at the expense of the Company may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. If in any other case a successor Trustee shall not be
appointed pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.6 within 60 days after such appointment might have been made hereunder, the holder of any Security of the applicable series or any retiring Trustee at the expense of the Company may
apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Trustee. Such court may thereupon, in any such case, after such notice, if any, as such court may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor Trustee. 


-43- 











                    (c)     Any successor Trustee appointed hereunder with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor Trustee and to the Company, or to the receivers, trustees, assignees or court appointing it, as the case may be, an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the authority, rights, powers, trusts, immunities, duties and obligations with respect to such series of such predecessor Trustee with like effect as if originally named as
Trustee hereunder, and such predecessor Trustee, upon payment of its fees, charges and disbursements then unpaid, shall thereupon become obligated to pay over, and such successor Trustee shall be entitled to receive, all moneys and properties held
by such predecessor Trustee as Trustee hereunder. Nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor Trustee or of the holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding, such
predecessor Trustee, upon payment of its said fees, charges and disbursements, shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee upon the trusts herein expressed all the rights, powers and trusts of such predecessor
Trustee and shall assign, transfer and deliver to the successor Trustee all moneys and properties held by such predecessor Trustee; and, upon request of any such successor Trustee and the Company shall make, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and
all instruments in writing for more fully and effectually vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such authority, rights, powers, trusts, immunities, duties and obligations. 


                    Section 11.7.      Successor Trustee by Merger. Any corporation into which the Trustee
or any successor to it in the trusts created by this Indenture shall be merged or converted, or any corporation with which it or any successor to it shall be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to
which the Trustee or any such successor to it shall be a party, or any corporation to which the Trustee or any successor to it shall sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the
successor Trustee under this Indenture without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided that such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article. In case at
the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture with respect to one or more series of Securities, any of such Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered by the Trustee then in office, any
successor to such Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the
Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this
Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply
only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation. 


                    Section 11.8.      Right to Rely on Officers’ Certificate. Subject to Section
11.2, and subject to the provisions of Section 16.1 with respect to the certificates required thereby, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or
established prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, be
deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officers’ Certificate with respect thereto delivered to the Trustee, and such Officers’ Certificate, in the absence of negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the
Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof. 


-44- 











                    Section 11.9.      Appointment of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an
agent (the “Authenticating Agent”) reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Securities, and the Trustee shall give written notice of such appointment to all holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such
Authenticating Agent will serve. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any such Authenticating Agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes
authentication by the Authenticating Agent. 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. 


                    Each Authenticating Agent shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business and in good standing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District
of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such corporation 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 Article XI, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Article XI, it shall resign immediately in the manner
and with the effect specified in this Article XI. 


                    Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to
which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be
otherwise eligible under this Article XI, 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 may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by
giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 11.9, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give written notice of such appointment 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 11.9. 


                    The Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section 11.9, and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed for
such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 11.1. 


-45- 











                    Section 11.10.      Communications by Securityholders with Other Securityholders.
Holders of Securities may communicate pursuant to Section 312(b) of the Trust Indenture Act with other holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or the Securities. The Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and anyone else shall have
the protection of Section 312(c) of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to such communications. 


ARTICLE XII 



SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE; DEFEASANCE 


                    Section 12.1.      Applicability of Article. If, pursuant to Section 3.1, provision is

                    Section 12.2.      Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture, with
respect to the Securities of any series (if all series issued under this Indenture are not to be affected), shall, upon Company Request, cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of such
Securities herein expressly provided for and rights to receive payments of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Securities) and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture, when, 


                    (a)         either: 

	          	          	          (i)         all
          Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other
          than (A) Securities that have been destroyed, lost or stolen and that
          have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.7 and (B) Securities
          for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or
          segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to
          the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 6.3)
          have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

                 (ii)         all
          Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee
    for cancellation, 




	          	          	 	 
	 	 	           	          (A)     have
          become due and payable, or 

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

                 (C)     are
          to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory
          to the Trustee for the giving of notice by the Trustee in the name,
          and at the expense, of the Company, and the Company, in the case of
          (A), (B) or (C) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited
          with the Paying Agent as trust funds in trust for the purpose an amount
          in the Currency in which such Securities are denominated (except as
          otherwise provided pursuant to Section 3.1) sufficient to pay and discharge
          the entire Indebtedness on such Securities for principal and premium,
          if any, and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities
          that have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption
          Date, as the case may be; provided, however, in the event a petition
          for relief under federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted,
          or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or
          other similar law, is filed with respect to the Company within 91 days
    after the deposit and the 





-46- 










	          	          	          	Trustee is required to return the
        moneys then on deposit with the Trustee to the Company, the obligations
        of the Company under this Indenture with respect to such Securities shall
    not be deemed terminated or discharged; 
	 	 	 
	 	          (b)        the
          Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder
          by the Company, including, without limitation, any amounts owing to
          the Trustee under Section 11.1(a); and 

                 (c)        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 with respect to such series have been complied with. 






                    Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 11.1 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee
pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (a)(i) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 12.7 and the last paragraph of Section 6.3(e) shall survive. 


                    Section 12.3.      Defeasance upon Deposit of Moneys or U.S Government Obligations. At
the Company’s option, either (a) the Company shall be deemed to have been Discharged (as defined below) from its obligations with respect to Securities of any series on the first day after the applicable conditions set forth below have been
satisfied or (b) the Company shall cease to be under any obligation to comply with any term, provision or condition as may be specified pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to Securities of any series (and, if so specified pursuant to Section 3.1,
any other restrictive covenant added for the benefit of such series pursuant to Section 3.1) at any time after the applicable conditions set forth below have been satisfied: 

	          	          (i)         The
          Company shall have deposited or caused to be deposited irrevocably
          with the Trustee as trust funds in trust, specifically pledged as security
          for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the holders of the Securities
          of such series (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations
          (as defined below) that through the payment of interest and principal
          in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not
          later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an
          amount or (C) a combination of (A) and (B), sufficient, in the opinion
          of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm
          of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification
          to the Trustee, to pay and discharge each installment of principal
          (including any mandatory sinking fund payments) of and premium, if
          any, and interest on, the Outstanding Securities of such series on
          the dates such installments of interest or principal and premium are
          due; 

                 (ii)         No
          Event of Default or event (including such deposit) that, with notice
          or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default with respect
          to the Securities of such series shall have occurred and be continuing
          on the date of such deposit; 

                 (iii)         In
          the case of an election under Section 12.3(a), the Company shall have

          the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the
          Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (B) since the date of this Indenture
          there has been a change in applicable federal income tax law, in either
          case confirming that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall
          confirm that, the holders of the Securities of such series will not
          recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes
          as a result of the Company’s exercise of its option under Section
    12.3(a) and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts 





-47- 










	          	and in the same manner and
          at the same times as would have been the case if such option had not
          been exercised; 

                 (iv)     In
          the case of an election under Section 12.3(b), the Company shall have
          delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the
          holder of the Securities of such series will not recognize income,
          gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the Company’s
          exercise of its option under Section 12.3(b) and will be subject to
          federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at
          the same times as would have been the case if such option had not been
          exercised; and 

                 (v)     The
          Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate
          and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that all conditions precedent
          herein provided for relating to the Company’s exercise of such
    option with respect to such series have been complied with. 





                    “Discharged” means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by, and obligations under, the Securities of such series and to
have satisfied all the obligations under this Indenture relating to the Securities of such series (and the Trustee, upon receipt of a written request by the Company, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the
same), except (A) the rights of holders of Securities of such series to receive, from the trust fund described in clause (a) above, payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Securities when such payments are due, (B) the
Company’s obligations with respect to Securities of such series under Sections 3.4, 3.6, 3.7, 6.2, 12.6 and 12.7 and (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder. 


                    “U.S. Government Obligations” means securities that are (i) direct obligations of the United States for the payment of which its full faith and credit is pledged or (ii) obligations
of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States the timely of payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States, that, in either case
under clauses (i) or (ii) are not callable or redeemable at the action of the issuer thereof, and shall also include a depositary receipt issued by a bank or trust company as custodian with respect to any such U.S. Government Obligation or a
specific payment of interest on or principal of any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian for the account of the holder of a depositary receipt; provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any
deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of interest on or principal of the U.S. Government Obligation
evidenced by such depositary receipt. 


                    Section 12.4.      Repayment to Company. The Trustee and any Paying Agent shall
promptly pay to the Company (or to its designee) upon Company Request any excess moneys or U.S. Government Obligations held by them at any time, including any such moneys or obligations held by the Trustee under any escrow trust agreement entered
into pursuant to Section 12.6. The provisions of the last paragraph of Section 6.3 shall apply to any money held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent under this Article that remains unclaimed for two years after the Maturity of any series of
Securities for which money or U.S. Government Obligations have been deposited pursuant to Section 12.3. 


                    Section 12.5.      Indemnity for U.S. Government Obligations. The Company shall pay and
shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal or interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations (it being understood that the Trustee
shall bear no responsibility for any such tax, fee or charge that is imposed or assessed). 


-48- 











                    Section 12.6.      Deposits to Be Held in Escrow. Any deposits with the Trustee
referred to in Section 12.3 above shall be irrevocable (except to the extent provided in Sections 12.4 and 12.7) and shall be made under the terms of an escrow trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee. If any Outstanding
Securities of a series are to be redeemed prior to their Stated Maturity, whether pursuant to any optional redemption provisions or in accordance with any mandatory or optional sinking fund requirement, the applicable escrow trust agreement shall
provide therefor 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. The agreement shall provide that, upon
satisfaction of any mandatory sinking fund payment requirements, whether by deposit of moneys, application of proceeds of deposited U.S. Government Obligations or, if permitted, by delivery of Securities, the Trustee shall pay or deliver over to the
Company as excess moneys pursuant to Section 12.4 all funds or obligations then held under the agreement and allocable to the sinking fund payment requirements so satisfied. 


                    If Securities of a series with respect to which such deposits are made may be subject to later redemption at the option of the Company or pursuant to optional sinking fund payments, the
applicable escrow trust agreement may, at the option of the Company, provide therefor. In the case of an optional redemption in whole or in part, such agreement shall require the Company to deposit with the Trustee on or before the date notice of
redemption is given funds sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of the Securities to be redeemed together with all unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date. Upon such deposit of funds, the Trustee shall pay or deliver over to the Company as
excess funds pursuant to Section 12.4 all funds or obligations then held under such agreement and allocable to the Securities to be redeemed. In the case of exercise of Optional Sinking Fund Payment rights by the Company, such agreement shall, at
the option of the Company, provide that upon deposit by the Company with the Trustee of funds pursuant to such exercise the Trustee shall pay or deliver over to the Company as excess funds pursuant to Section 12.4 all funds or obligations then held
under such agreement for such series and allocable to the Securities to be redeemed. 


                    Section 12.7.      Application of Trust Money. 


                    (a)     Neither the Trustee nor any other Paying Agent shall be required to pay interest on any moneys deposited pursuant to
the provisions of this Indenture, except such as it shall agree with the Company to pay thereon. Any moneys so deposited for the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the Securities of any series and remaining unclaimed for
two years after the date of the maturity of the Securities of such series or the date fixed for the redemption of all the Securities of such series at the time outstanding, as the case may be, shall be repaid by the Trustee or such other paying
agent to the Company upon its written request and thereafter, and anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, any rights of the holders of Securities of such series in respect of which such moneys shall have been deposited shall be
enforceable only against the Company, and all liability of the Trustee or such other paying agent with respect to such moneys shall thereafter cease. 


                   (b)     Subject to the provisions of the foregoing paragraph, any moneys which at any time shall be deposited by the Company
or on its behalf with the Trustee or any other paying agent for the purpose of paying the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on any of the Securities shall be and are hereby assigned, transferred and set over to the Trustee or such other
paying agent in trust for the respective holders of the Securities for the purpose for which such moneys shall have been deposited; but such moneys need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 


                    Section 12.8.      Deposits of Non-U.S. Currencies. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Article, if the Securities of any series are payable in a Currency other than U.S. Dollars, the 


-49- 











Currency or the nature of the government obligations to be deposited with the Trustee under the foregoing provisions of this Article shall be as set forth in the Officers’ Certificate or established in the supplemental
indenture under which the Securities of such series are issued. 


ARTICLE XIII 



IMMUNITY OF CERTAIN PERSONS 


                    Section 13.1.      No Personal Liability. No recourse shall be had for the payment of
the principal of, or the premium, if any, or interest on, any Security or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof or of the Indebtedness represented thereby, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of this Indenture,
against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any
constitutional provision, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Indenture and the Securities are solely corporate obligations, and that no personal
liability whatsoever shall attach to, or be incurred by, any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any successor
corporation, because of the incurring of the Indebtedness hereby authorized or under or by reason of any of the obligations, covenants, promises or agreements contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities, or to be implied herefrom or
therefrom, and that all liability, if any, of that character against every such incorporator, stockholder, officer and director is, by the acceptance of the Securities and as a condition of, and as part of the consideration for, the execution of
this Indenture and the issue of the Securities expressly waived and released.

                 (e)     to
          evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by

          set forth, or other conditions, limitations or restrictions thereafter
    to be observed. 





                    Subject to the provisions of Section 14.3, the Trustee is authorized to join with the Company in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, to make the further agreements and

time Outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 14.2. 


-51- 











                    Section 14.2.      With Consent of Securityholders; Limitations. 


                    (a)     With the consent (evidenced as provided in Article VIII) of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of each series affected by such supplemental indenture voting separately, the Company (when authorized by a resolution of the Board of Directors) and the Trustee may, from time to time and at any time, enter into an
indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the Securities of such

	          	          (i)     extend
          the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest
          on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the interest
          thereon or any premium payable upon redemption thereof, or change the
          Currency in which the principal of and premium, if any, or interest
          on such Security is denominated or payable, or reduce the amount of
          the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be
          due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity
          thereof pursuant to Section 7.2, or impair the right to institute suit
          for the enforcement of any payment on or after the Stated Maturity
          thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption
          Date), or materially adversely affect the economic terms of any right
          to convert or exchange any Security as may be provided pursuant to
          Section 3.1(r); or 

                 (ii)     reduce
          the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of

          or 

                 (iii)     modify
          any of the provisions of this Section, Section 6.6 or Section 7.6,
          except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other
          provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the
          consent of the holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby;
          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 6.6, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with
          the requirements of Sections 11.6 and 14.1(e); or 

                 (iv)     modify,
          without the written consent of the Trustee, the rights, duties or immunities
    of the Trustee. 





                    (b)     A supplemental indenture that changes or eliminates any 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. 


                    (c)     It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Securityholders under this Section 14.2 to approve the particular
form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. 


                    (d)     The Company may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of the holders of each series of Securities
entitled to give a written consent or waive compliance by the Company as authorized or permitted by this Section. Such record date shall not be more than 30 days 


-52- 











prior to the first solicitation of such consent or waiver or the date of the most recent list of holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation pursuant to Section 312 of the Trust Indenture Act. 


                    (e)     Promptly after the execution by the Company and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 14.2, the Company shall mail a notice, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture, to the holders of Securities at their addresses as the same shall then appear in the Register of the Company. Any
failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture. 


                    Section 14.3.      Trustee Protected. The Trustee shall join with the Company in the
execution of a supplemental indenture, unless said supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to,
enter into said supplemental indenture, upon the request of the Company, accompanied by the Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel required by Section 16.1 and by:

          is a valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against
          it in accordance with its terms (subject to customary exceptions);
          and 

                 (d)     if

    14.2. 





                    Section 14.4.      Effect of Execution of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution of
any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article XIV, this Indenture shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, the respective rights, limitations of

authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article may bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company

ARTICLE XV 



SUBORDINATION OF SECURITIES 


                    Section 15.1.      Agreement to Subordinate. In the event a series of Securities is
designated as subordinated pursuant to Section 3.1(t), and except as otherwise provided in Board Resolutions or a supplemental indenture, the Company, for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees, and each holder of Securities of
such series by his, her or its acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on each and all of the Securities of such series is hereby expressly subordinated, to
the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness. In the event a series of Securities is not designated as subordinated pursuant to Section 3.1(t), this Article XV shall
have no effect upon the Securities. 


                    Section 15.2.      Distribution on Dissolution, Liquidation and Reorganization; Subrogation of Securities. Subject to Section 15.1, upon any distribution of assets of the Company upon any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or receivership
proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company or otherwise (subject to the power of a court of competent jurisdiction to make other equitable provision reflecting
the rights conferred in this Indenture upon the Senior Indebtedness and the holders thereof with respect to the Securities and the holders thereof by a lawful plan of reorganization under applicable bankruptcy law): 

	          	          (a)     the
          holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive payment
          in full of the principal thereof (and premium, if any) and interest
          due thereon before the holders of the Securities are entitled to receive
          any payment upon the principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if
          any, on Indebtedness evidenced by the Securities; and 

                 (b)     any
          payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character,
          whether in cash, property or securities, to which the holders of the
          Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions
          of this Article XV shall be paid by the liquidation trustee or agent
          or other person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee
          in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly
          to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives
          or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments
          evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably
          according to the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of the
          principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Senior Indebtedness
          held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to make payment
          in full of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, after giving effect
          to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior
          Indebtedness; and 

                 (c)     in
          the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution
          of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash,
          property or securities, shall be received by the Trustee or the holders
          of the Securities before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, such
          payment or distribution shall be paid over, upon written notice to
          a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, to the holder of such Senior
          Indebtedness or his, her or its representative or representatives or
          to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instrument
          evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably
    as aforesaid, for application to 





-54- 










	          	payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining
        unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full,
        after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the
        holders of such Senior Indebtedness. Subject to the payment in full of
        all Senior Indebtedness, the holders of the Securities shall be subrogated
        to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness (to the extent that
        distributions otherwise payable to such holder have been applied to the
        payment of Senior Indebtedness) to receive payments or distributions
        of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to Senior Indebtedness
        until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on
        the Securities shall be paid in full and no such payments or distributions
        to the holders of the Securities of cash, property or securities otherwise
        distributable to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall, as between
        the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness,
        and the holders of the Securities be deemed to be a payment by the Company
        to or on account of the Securities. It is understood that the provisions
        of this Article XV are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining
        the relative rights of the holders of the Securities, on the one hand,
        and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand. Nothing
        contained in this Article XV or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the
        Securities is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company, its
        creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the holders
        of the Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is unconditional
        and absolute, to pay to the holders of the Securities the principal of
        (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the Securities as and
        when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms,
        or to affect the relative rights of the holders of the Securities and
        creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness,
        nor shall anything herein or in the Securities prevent the Trustee or
        the holder of any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted
        by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights,
        if any, under this Article XV of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in
        respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon
        the exercise of any such remedy. Upon any payment or distribution of
        assets of the Company referred to in this Article XV, the Trustee, subject
        to the provisions of Section 15.5, shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate
        of the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making any distribution
        to the Trustee for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to
        participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness
        and other Indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable
        thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereof and all other
    facts pertinent thereto or to this Article XV. 




                    With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or observe only such of its covenants and objectives as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and
no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee, however, shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness.
The Trustee shall not be liable to any such holder if it shall pay over or distribute to or on behalf of holders of Securities or the Company, or any other Person, moneys or assets to which any holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by
virtue of this Article XV. 


                    Section 15.3.      No Payment on Securities in Event of Default on Senior Indebtedness.
Subject to Section 15.1, no payment by the Company on account of principal (or premium, if any), sinking funds or interest, if any, on the Securities shall be made at anytime if: 

	          	          (i)     a
          default on Senior Indebtedness exists that permits the holders of such
          Senior Indebtedness to accelerate its maturity and 

                 (ii)     the
          default is the subject of judicial proceedings or the Company (or the
          trustee of the Senior Indebtedness) has received notice of such default.
          The Company may resume payments on the Securities when full payment
    of amounts then due for principal (premium, if any), 





-55- 










	          	sinking funds and interest on Senior Indebtedness
    has been made or duly provided for in money or money’s worth. 




                    Section 15.4.      Payments on Securities Permitted. Subject to Section 15.1, nothing
contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall (a) affect the obligation of the Company to make, or prevent the Company from making, at any time except as provided in Sections 15.2 and 15.3, payments of principal of (or premium, if
any) or interest, if any, on the Securities or (b) prevent the application by the Trustee of any moneys or assets deposited with it hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on the
Securities, unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received at its Corporate Trust Office written notice of any fact prohibiting the making of such payment from the Company or from the holder of any Senior Indebtedness or from the
trustee for any such holder, together with proof satisfactory to the Trustee of such holding of Senior Indebtedness or of the authority of such trustee more than two Business Days prior to the date fixed for such payment. 


                    Section 15.5.      Authorization of Securityholders to Trustee to Effect Subordination.
Subject to Section 15.1, each holder of Securities by his, her or its acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on his, her or its behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided
in this Article XV and appoints the Trustee as his, her or its attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 


                    Section 15.6.      Notices to Trustee. Subject to Section 15.1, notwithstanding the
provisions of this Article XV or any other provisions of this Indenture, neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent (other than the Company) shall be charged with knowledge of the existence of any Senior Indebtedness or of any fact which would
prohibit the making of any payment of moneys or assets to or by the Trustee or such Paying Agent, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall have received (in the case of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, at
the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee) written notice thereof from the Company or from the holder of any Senior Indebtedness or from the trustee for any such holder, together with proof satisfactory to the Trustee of such holding of Senior
Indebtedness or of the authority of such trustee and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled in all respects conclusively to presume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if at least two Business
Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any such moneys or assets may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of either the principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Security) a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall not have received with respect to such moneys or assets the notice provided for in this Section 15.6, then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and
authority to receive such moneys or assets and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it within two Business Days prior to such date. The
Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee on behalf of such holder) to establish that such a notice has been given by a holder of
Senior Indebtedness or a trustee on behalf of any such holder. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any
payment or distribution pursuant to this Article XV, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person
is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article XV and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial
determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment. 


-56- 











                    Section 15.7.      Trustee as Holder of Senior Indebtedness. Subject to Section 15.1,
the Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article XV in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time held by it to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness and nothing in this
Indenture shall be construed to deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Nothing in this Article XV shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Sections 7.5 or 11.1. 


                    Section 15.8.      Modifications of Terms of Senior Indebtedness. Subject to Section
15.1, any renewal or extension of the time of payment of any Senior Indebtedness or the exercise by the holders of Senior Indebtedness of any of their rights under any instrument creating or evidencing Senior Indebtedness, including, without
limitation, the waiver of default thereunder, may be made or done all without notice to or assent from the holders of the Securities or the Trustee. No compromise, alteration, amendment, modification, extension, renewal or other change of, or
waiver, consent or other action in respect of, any liability or obligation under or in respect of, or of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any indenture or other instrument under which any Senior Indebtedness is outstanding or of such
Senior Indebtedness, whether or not such release is in accordance with the provisions of any applicable document, shall in any way alter or affect any of the provisions of this Article XV or of the Securities relating to the subordination thereof.



                    Section 15.9.      Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate of Liquidating Agent.
Subject to Section 15.1, upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article XV, the Trustee and the holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent
jurisdiction in which such insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution, winding up or similar case or proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, custodian, receiver,
assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the holders of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such payment or
distribution to holders of Senior Indebtedness and other Indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article XV. 


                    Section 15.10.      Satisfaction and Discharge; Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance.
Subject to Section 15.1, amounts and U.S. Government Obligations deposited in trust with the Trustee pursuant to and in accordance with Article XII and not, at the time of such deposit, prohibited to be deposited under Sections 15.2 or 15.3 shall
not be subject to this Article XV.

matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his or
her certificate, statement or opinion is based are erroneous. Any certificate, statement or opinion of counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate, statement or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or

matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. 


                    (f)     Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates,

                    Section 16.2.      Trust Indenture Act Controls. This Indenture is subject to the
mandatory provisions of the Trust Indenture Act. If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed by, or another provision included in this Indenture which is required to be included in
this Indenture by the Trust Indenture Act, such imposed duties or incorporated provision shall control. 


                    Section 16.3.      What Constitutes Action by Board of Directors. Whenever action is
required by this Indenture by the Board of Directors of the Company and there is at the time constituted a committee of the Board of Directors duly authorized to take such action, or a committee of officers or other representatives of the Company so
authorized by the Board of Directors, such action by such a committee shall be deemed to be the action of the Board of Directors and shall be sufficient for all purposes of this Indenture where action by the Board of Directors is specified.



                    Section 16.4.      Notices to the Company and Trustee. Any notice or demand authorized
by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, the Company or the Trustee shall 


-58- 











be sufficiently made, given, furnished or filed for all purposes if it shall be mailed, delivered or telefaxed to: 

	          	          (a)     the
          Company, at Two Paragon Drive, Montvale, New Jersey 07645, Attention:
          Allan Richards, fax: (201) 571-4106, or at such other address or facsimile
          number as may have been furnished in writing to the Trustee by the
          Company. 

                 (b)     the
          Trustee, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, Attention: Corporate
          Client Services (A&P). 

                 Any
    such notice, demand or other document shall be in the English language. 





                    Section 16.5.      Notices to Securityholders; Waiver. Any notice required or permitted
to be given to Securityholders shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided), 

	          	          (a)     if
          to Registered Holders, if given in writing by first class mail, postage
          prepaid, to such holders at their addresses as the same shall appear
          on the Register of the Company. 

                 (b)     In
          the event of suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any
          other cause it shall be impracticable to give notice by mail, then
          such notification as shall be given with the approval of the Trustee
          shall constitute sufficient notice for every purpose hereunder. 

                 (c)     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 on such waiver. In any case
          where notice to holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail
          such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular
          holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to
          other holders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided
          shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given. In any case
          where notice to holders is given by publication, any defect in any
          notice so published as to any particular holder shall not affect the
          sufficiency of such notice with respect to other holders, and any notice
          that is published in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively
    presumed to have been duly given. 





                    Section 16.6.      Legal Holiday. Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.1,
in any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Maturity of any Security of any series shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment for the Securities of that series, then payment of principal and premium, if any, or interest
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 such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Maturity and no interest
shall accrue on such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Maturity, as the case may be, to such Business Day if such payment is made or duly provided for on such Business Day. 


                    Section 16.7.      Effects 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. 


-59- 











                    Section 16.8.      Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this
Indenture by the parties hereto shall bind their respective successors and assigns and inure to the benefit of their permitted successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. 


                    Section 16.9.      Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture or in
the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 


                    Section 16.10.      Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture expressed and
nothing that may be implied from any of the provisions hereof is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon, or to give to, any Person or corporation other than the parties hereto and their successors and the holders of the Securities any
benefit or any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Indenture or any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise or agreement hereof, and all covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Indenture contained shall
be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and of the holders of the Securities. 


                    Section 16.11.      Counterparts Originals. This Indenture may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. 


                    Section 16.12.      Governing Law. This Indenture and the Securities shall be deemed to
be contracts made under the laws of the State of New York, and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of said State.
