All other TIA terms used in this Indenture that are defined by the TIA, defined by TIA reference to another statute or
defined by SEC rule have the meanings assigned to them by such definitions.


SECTION 1.04   Rules of Construction.  Unless the context otherwise
requires:





	a defined term has the meaning assigned to it;



                                                 6










	an accounting term not otherwise defined has the meaning assigned to it in accordance with United States
generally accepted accounting principles as in effect from time to time;


	"or" is not exclusive;


	"including" means including, without limitation; and


	words in the singular include the plural, and words in the plural include the singular.


SECTION 1.05   Acts of Holders.




	Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments (which may
take the form of an electronic writing or messaging or otherwise be in accordance with customary procedures of the Depositary or the Trustee)
of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing (which may be in electronic form); and,
except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the
Trustee and, when it is hereby expressly required, to the Company.  Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and
evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of Holders signing such instrument or instruments.
Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent (either of which may be in electronic form) shall be
sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this
Section.


	The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit
of a witness of such execution (or electronic delivery) or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take
acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing or delivering such instrument or writing acknowledged to such officer the
execution (or electronic delivery) thereof.  When such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than such signer's individual capacity,
such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of such signer's authority.  The fact and date of the execution of any such
instrument or writing (electronic or otherwise), or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner
which the Trustee deems sufficient.


	The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the register maintained by the Registrar.



	Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security
shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in
exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the



                                                 7








Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.




	If the Company shall solicit from the Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other Act, the Company may, at its option, by or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors, fix in advance a record date for the
determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company
shall have no obligation to do so.  If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed
to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed
or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the outstanding
Securities shall be computed as of such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record
date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture within six months after the record
date.


ARTICLE 2



THE SECURITIES


SECTION 2.01  
Form and Dating.  The Securities and
the Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibits A-1 and A-3, which are a part of this Indenture.
The Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage (provided that any such notation,
legend or endorsement required by usage is in a form acceptable to the Company).  The Company shall provide any such notations, legends
or endorsements to the Trustee in writing.  Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.




	144A Global Securities.  Securities offered and sold within the United
States to "qualified institutional buyers" as defined in Rule 144A ("QIBs") in reliance on Rule 144A shall be
issued initially in the form of a 144A Global Security, which shall be deposited with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, as custodian for
the Depositary, and registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") or the nominee thereof (such
depositary, or any successor thereto, and any such nominee being hereinafter referred to as the "Depositary"), duly
executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided.  The aggregate Principal Amount of the 144A Global
Securities may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary as
hereinafter provided.


	Institutional Accredited Investor Securities.  Except as provided in this
Section 2.01 or Section 2.06 or 2.12, owners of beneficial interests in Global Securities will not be entitled to receive physical
delivery of Certificated Securities.  Securities offered and sold within the United States to institutional "accredited investors" as
defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2) (3) and (7) under the Securities Act ("Institutional Accredited Investors") shall
be issued initially



                                                 8








in the form of an Institutional Accredited Investor Security, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided.




	Global Securities in General.  Each Global Security shall represent such of the outstanding Securities as
shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate Principal Amount of outstanding Securities from time to
time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate Principal Amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be
reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions.
Any adjustment of the aggregate Principal Amount of a Global Security to reflect the amount of any increase or
decrease in the Principal Amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee in accordance with instructions
given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.12 hereof and shall be made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary.



	Book-Entry Provisions.  This Section 2.01(d) shall apply only to
Global Securities deposited with or on behalf of the Depositary.
The Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section 2.01(d), authenticate and
deliver initially one or more Global Securities that (a) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary, (b) shall be delivered by
the Trustee to the Depositary or pursuant to the Depositary's instructions or held by the Trustee as custodian for such Depositary and
(c) shall bear legends substantially to the following effect:

"UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE
DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY TO THE ISSUER OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT,
AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS
REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (AND ANY PAYMENT HEREON IS
MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE
DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY
PERSON IS WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.

TRANSFERS OF THIS GLOBAL SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS, IN WHOLE BUT NOT IN PART,
TO NOMINEES OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY OR TO A SUCCESSOR THEREOF OR SUCH SUCCESSOR'S NOMINEE AND
TRANSFERS OF PORTIONS OF THIS GLOBAL SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 2 OF THE INDENTURE REFERRED TO ON THE REVERSE HEREOF."




                                                 9









	Certificated Securities.  Securities not issued as interests in the Global Securities will be issued in
certificated form substantially in the form of Exhibit A-3 attached hereto.


	U.S. Tax Legend.  [Intentionally deleted.]


SECTION 2.02  
Execution and Authentication.  The Securities shall be executed on behalf
of the Company by any Officer.  The signature of the Officer on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.

Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of an individual who was at the time of the execution of the
Securities the proper Officer of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to hold such office prior
to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such office at the date of authentication of such Securities.

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

The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Securities for original issue in an aggregate Principal Amount of up to
$16,471,991 upon a Company Order without any further action by the Company.  The aggregate Principal Amount of Securities outstanding at
any time may not exceed the amount set forth in the foregoing sentence, except as provided in Section 2.07.

The Securities shall be issued only in registered form without coupons and only in denominations of $1,000 of Principal
Amount and any integral multiple thereof.


SECTION 2.03  
Registrar and
Paying Agent.  The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for
exchange ("Registrar") and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for purchase or payment
("Paying Agent").  The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange.  The Company
may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents.  The term "Paying Agent" includes any additional
paying agent, including any named pursuant to Section 4.05.  

The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or co-registrar or Paying Agent
(other than the Trustee).  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 any such agent.  If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as
such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07.  The Company or any Subsidiary or an Affiliate
of either of them may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.


                                                 10






The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent in connection with the Securities.


SECTION 2.04  
Paying Agent to Hold Money and Securities in
Trust.  Except as otherwise provided herein, not later than 11:30 a.m., New York City time, on each due date of payments in
respect of any Security, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum of money (in immediately available funds if deposited on the
due date) sufficient to make such payments when so becoming due.  The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee)
to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Securityholders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent
for the making of payments in respect of the Securities and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such
payment.  At any time during the continuance of any such default, the Paying Agent shall, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith
pay to the Trustee all money so held in trust.  If the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them acts as Paying Agent, it shall
segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund.  The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to
pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by it.  Upon doing so, the Paying Agent shall have no further
liability for the money.


SECTION 2.05  
Securityholder Lists.  The Trustee shall
preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Securityholders.  If
the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall cause to be furnished to the Trustee at least semiannually on June 1 and
December 1 a listing of Securityholders dated within 15 days of the date on which the list is furnished and at such other times as the
Trustee may request in writing a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of
Securityholders.



SECTION 2.06  
Transfer and Exchange.  Subject to Section 2.12
hereof,




	Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security, together with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory
to the Registrar duly executed by the Securityholder or such Securityholder's attorney duly authorized in writing, at the office or agency of the
Company designated as Registrar or co-registrar pursuant to Section 2.03, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee upon receipt of
a Company Order shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of any
authorized denomination or denominations, of a like aggregate Principal Amount.  The Company shall not charge a service charge for any
registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other
governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with the registration of transfer or exchange of the Securities from the
Securityholder requesting such registration of transfer or exchange.

At the option of the Holder, Certificated Securities may be exchanged for other Securities of any authorized
denomination or denominations, of a like aggregate Principal Amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged, together with a
written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by the Securityholder or such Securityholder's attorney duly authorized
in writing, at such office or agency.  Whenever any Securities are so




                                                 11








surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee
upon receipt of a Company Order shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to
receive.

The Company shall not be required to make, and the Registrar need not register, transfers or exchanges of Securities
selected for redemption (except, in the case of Securities to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or any Securities in
respect of which a Change in Control Purchase Notice has been given and not withdrawn by the Holder thereof in accordance with the terms
of this Indenture (except, in the case of Securities to be purchased in part, the portion thereof not to be purchased) or any Securities for a
period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed.



	Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, so long as a Global Security
remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the Depositary, transfers of a Global Security, in whole or in part, shall be made only in
accordance with Section 2.12 and this Section 2.06(b).  Transfers of a Global Security shall be limited to transfers of such Global
Security in whole, or in part, to nominees of the Depositary or to a successor of the Depositary or such successor's nominee.


	Successive registrations of transfers and exchanges as aforesaid may be made from time to time as desired, and
each such registration shall be noted on the register for the Securities.


	Any Registrar appointed pursuant to Section 2.03 hereof shall provide to the Trustee such information as
the Trustee may reasonably require in connection with the delivery by such Registrar of Securities upon registration of transfer or exchange of
Securities.


	No Registrar shall be required to make registrations of transfer or exchange of Securities during any periods
designated in the text of the Securities or in this Indenture as periods during which such registration of transfers and exchanges need not be
made.


	If Securities are issued upon the registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of
Securities subject to restrictions on transfer and bearing the legends set forth on the form of Security attached hereto as Exhibits A-1
and A-3 setting forth such restrictions (collectively, the "Legend"), or if a request is made to remove the Legend on a
Security, the Securities so issued shall bear the Legend, or the Legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there is delivered to
the Company and the Registrar such satisfactory evidence, which shall include an Opinion of Counsel, as may be reasonably required by the
Company and the Registrar, that neither the Legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers
thereof comply with the provisions of Rule 144A or Rule 144 or that such Securities are not "restricted" within the meaning of Rule
144.  Upon (i) provision of such satisfactory evidence, or (ii) notification by the Company to the Trustee and Registrar of the sale
of such Security pursuant to a registration statement that is effective at the time of such sale, the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order,
shall authenticate and deliver a Security that does not bear the Legend.  If the Legend is removed from the face of a Security and the Security is



                                                 12








subsequently held by an Affiliate of the Company, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to reinstate the
Legend.


The Trustee and the Registrar 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
(including any transfers between or among Depositary participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global 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.


SECTION 2.07  
Replacement
Securities.  If (a) any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, or (b) 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 such security or
indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such
Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser within the meaning of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a
"Protected Purchaser"), the Company shall execute and upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated Security or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor
and Principal Amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, or is
about to be purchased by the Company pursuant to Article 3 hereof, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new
Security, pay or purchase such Security, as the case may be.

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

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

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


SECTION 2.08  
Outstanding Securities; Determinations of
Holders' Action.  Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the Trustee, except for those cancelled by it,
those paid pursuant to Section 2.10 and delivered to it for cancellation and


                                                 13







those described in this Section 2.08 as not
outstanding.  A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate thereof holds the Security; provided,
however, that in determining whether the Holders of the requisite Principal Amount of Securities have given or concurred in any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, Securities owned by the Company or any other obligor upon
the Securities or any Affiliate of the Company or such other obligor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, in
determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or
waiver, only Securities which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded.  Subject to the
foregoing, only Securities outstanding at the time of such determination shall be considered in any such determination (including, without
limitation, determinations pursuant to Articles 6 and 9).

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, the replaced Security ceases to be outstanding unless the
Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory to each of them that the replaced Security is held by a Protected Purchaser unaware that
such Security has been replaced, in which case the replacement security shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

If the Paying Agent holds, in accordance with this Indenture, on a Redemption Date, or on the Business Day following
the Change in Control Purchase Date, or on Stated Maturity, money or securities, if permitted hereunder, sufficient to pay Securities payable
on that date, then immediately after such Redemption Date, Change in Control Purchase Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be, such
Securities shall cease to be outstanding and cash interest on such Securities shall cease to accrue; provided, that if such Securities are to be
redeemed, notice of such redemption has been duly given pursuant to this Indenture.


SECTION 2.09  
Temporary Securities.  Pending the preparation of definitive Securities, the
Company may execute, and upon Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed,
lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive
Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers
executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

If temporary Securities are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable
delay.  After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of
the temporary Securities at the office or agency of the Company designated for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.03, without charge
to the Holder.  Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities the Company shall execute and upon Company Order
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like Principal Amount of definitive Securities of authorized denominations.
Until so exchanged the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive
Securities.


SECTION 2.10  
Cancellation.  All Securities surrendered for
payment, purchase by the Company pursuant to Article 3, redemption or registration of transfer or exchange shall, if


                                                 14







surrendered to any
person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it.  The Company may at any time deliver to the
Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any
manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee.  The Company may not issue new Securities to
replace Securities it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.  No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any
Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture.  All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee
shall be disposed of by the Trustee.


SECTION 2.11  
Persons Deemed Owners.  Prior to due presentment of a Security for
registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such
Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of the Security or the payment of any
Redemption Price or Change in Control Purchase Price in respect thereof or the payment of any cash interest thereon and for all other
purposes whatsoever, whether or not such 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.


SECTION 2.12  
Global
Securities.




	Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture or the Securities, (A) transfers of a Global Security, in
whole or in part, shall be made only in accordance with Section 2.06 and Section 2.12(b)(i), (B) transfer of a beneficial
interest in a Global Security for a Certificated Security shall comply with Section 2.06 and Section 2.12(b)(i) below, and
(C) transfers of a Certificated Security shall comply with Section 2.06 and Section 2.12(b)(ii) and transfer of a Certificated
Security for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Security shall comply with Section 2.06 and Section 2.12(b)(iii) below.


	Transfer of Global Security.  A Global Security may not be transferred, in
whole or in part, to any Person other than the Depositary or a nominee or any successor thereof, and no such transfer to any such other
Person may be registered; provided that this Section 2.12(b)(i)shall not prohibit any transfer of a Security that is issued in exchange for a
Global Security but is not itself a Global Security.  No transfer of a Security to any Person shall be effective under this Indenture or the
Securities unless and until such Security has been registered in the name of such Person.  Nothing in this Section 2.12(b)(i) shall
prohibit or render ineffective any transfer of a beneficial interest in a Global Security effected in accordance with the other provisions of this
Section 2.12(b).



	Restrictions on Transfer of a Beneficial Interest in a Global Security for a
Certificated Security.  A beneficial interest in a Global Security may not be exchanged for a Certificated Security except upon satisfaction
of the requirements set forth below.  Upon receipt by the Trustee of a request for transfer of a beneficial interest in a Global Security in
accordance with Applicable Procedures for a Certificated Security in the form satisfactory to the Trustee, together with:




                                                 15











	so long as the Securities are Restricted Securities, certification, in the form set forth in Exhibit B-1, and, if
requested by the Company or the Registrar, certification in the form set forth in Exhibit B-2, that such beneficial interest in the Global
Security is being transferred to an Institutional Accredited Investor that satisfies the definitions set forth in subparagraph (a)(1), (2),
(3) or (7) of Rule 501 under the Securities Act;


	written instructions to the Trustee to make, or direct the Registrar to make, an adjustment on its books and records
with respect to such Global Security to reflect a decrease in the aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities represented by the Global
Security, such instructions to contain information regarding the Depositary account to be credited with such decrease; and


	if the Company or Registrar so requests, an Opinion of Counsel or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to them
as to the compliance with the restrictions set forth in the Legend,

then the Trustee shall cause, or direct the Registrar to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and
procedures existing between the Depositary and the Registrar, the aggregate Principal Amount of Securities represented by the Global
Security to be decreased by the aggregate Principal Amount of the Certificated Security to be issued, shall authenticate and deliver such
Certificated Security and shall instruct the Depositary to debit or cause to be debited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions
a beneficial interest in the Global Security equal to the Principal Amount of the Certificated Security so issued.



	Transfer and Exchange of Certificated Securities.  When Certificated
Securities are presented to the Registrar with a request:
(x)to register the transfer of such Certificated Securities; or

(y)to exchange such Certificated Securities for an equal Principal Amount of Certificated Securities of other
authorized denominations,

the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for such
transaction are met; provided, however, that the Certificated Securities surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange:




	shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the
Company and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing; and





                                                 16











	so long as such Securities are Restricted Securities, such Securities are being transferred or exchanged pursuant
to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or, if being transferred pursuant to clause (1), (2) or (3) below,
are accompanied by the additional information and documents specified in each clause, as applicable:



	if such Certificated Securities are being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such
Holder, without transfer, a certification from such Holder to that effect; or


	if such Certificated Securities are being transferred to the Company, a certification to that effect; or


	if such Certificated Securities are being transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration (i) a
certification to that effect (in the form set forth in Exhibit B-1 and B-2, if applicable) and (ii) if the Company or Registrar so
requests, an Opinion of Counsel or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to them as to the compliance with the restrictions set forth in the
Legend.




	Restrictions on Transfer of a Certificated Security for a Beneficial Interest in a
Global Security.  A Certificated Security may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Security except upon satisfaction of the
requirements set forth below.  Upon receipt by the Trustee of a Certificated Security, duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate
instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, together with:



	so long as the Securities are Restricted Securities, certification, in the form set forth in Exhibit B-1, that such
Certificated Security is being transferred to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A; and


	written instructions directing the Trustee to make, or to direct the Registrar to make, an adjustment on its books
and records with respect to such Global Security to reflect an increase in the aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities represented by the
Global Security, such instructions to contain information regarding the Depositary account to be credited with such increase,



then the Trustee shall cancel such Certificated Security and cause, or direct the Registrar to cause, in accordance with
the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Registrar, the aggregate Principal Amount of Securities
represented by the Global Security to be increased by the aggregate Principal Amount of the Certificated Security to be exchanged, and shall
instruct the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the
Global Security equal to the Principal Amount of the




                                                 17








Certificated Security so cancelled.  If no Global Securities are then outstanding, the
Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, shall authenticate a new Global Security in the appropriate Principal
Amount.




	Subject to the succeeding paragraph, every Security shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer provided in the
Legend including the requirement of the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel, if so provided.  Whenever any Restricted Security is presented or
surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange for a Security registered in a name other than that of the Holder, such Security must be
accompanied by a certificate in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit B-1, dated the date of such surrender and signed by the Holder
of such Security, as to compliance with such restrictions on transfer.  The Registrar shall not be required to accept for such registration of
transfer or exchange any Security not so accompanied by a properly completed certificate.


	The restrictions imposed by the Legend upon the transferability of any Security shall cease and terminate when
such Security has been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or transferred in compliance with Rule 144
or, if earlier, upon the expiration of the holding period applicable to sales thereof under Rule 144.  Any Security as to which such restrictions on
transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms or shall have terminated may, upon a surrender of such Security for exchange to the
Registrar in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.12 (accompanied, in the event that such restrictions on transfer have
terminated by reason of a transfer in compliance with Rule 144, by an opinion of counsel having substantial experience in practice under
the Securities Act and otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Company, addressed to the Company, the Trustee and the Registrar and in
form acceptable to the Company, to the effect that the transfer of such Security has been made in compliance with Rule 144), be
exchanged for a new Security, of like tenor and aggregate Principal Amount, which shall not bear the restrictive Legend.  The Company shall
inform the Trustee of the effective date of any registration statement registering the Securities under the Securities Act.  The Trustee and the
Registrar shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the aforementioned opinion of
counsel or registration statement.



	As used in the preceding two paragraphs of this Section 2.12, the term "transfer"
encompasses any sale, pledge, transfer, hypothecation or other disposition of any Security.


	The provisions of clauses (1), (2), (3), (4) and (5) below shall
apply only to Global Securities:




	Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture or the Securities, except as provided in
Section 2.12(b)(i), a Global Security shall not be exchanged in whole or in part for a Security registered in the name of any Person other
than the Depositary or one or more nominees thereof, provided that a Global Security may be exchanged for Securities registered in the
names of any person designated by the Depositary in the event that (i) the Depositary has notified the Company that it is unwilling or
unable to continue as Depositary for such Global




                                                 18









Security or such Depositary has ceased to be a "clearing agency" registered
under the Exchange Act, and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days; (ii) the Company elects to
discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfer through DTC (or any successor depositary); or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing with respect to the Securities.  Any Global Security exchanged pursuant to subclause (i) of this
clause (1) shall be so exchanged in whole and not in part, and any Global Security exchanged pursuant to
subclause (ii) of this clause (1) may be exchanged in whole or from time to time in part as directed by the Depositary.
Any Security issued in exchange for a Global Security or any portion thereof shall be a Global Security; provided that any such Security so
issued that is registered in the name of a person other than the Depositary or a nominee thereof shall not be a Global Security.




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


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


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



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




                                                 19









the Paying Agent and any agent of the Company, the Trustee,
the Registrar or the Paying Agent as the absolute owner and holder of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written
certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, or impair, as between the
Depositary, its Agent Members and any other person on whose behalf an Agent Member may act, the operation of customary practices of such
Persons governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Security.




SECTION 2.13  
CUSIP Numbers.  The Company in issuing the Securities may use
"CUSIP" numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers in notices of redemption
as a convenience to Holders; 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 of any change in the CUSIP numbers.


ARTICLE 3



REDEMPTION AND PURCHASES




SECTION 3.01  
Right to
Redeem; Notices to Trustee.  The Company, at its option, may redeem the Securities in accordance with the provisions of
paragraphs 5 and 6 of the Securities.  The Company may redeem the Securities for cash in whole at any time, or in part from time to

the Redemption Date, the Principal Amount of Securities to be redeemed, the amount of accrued and unpaid cash interest, if any, and the
Redemption Price payable on the Redemption Date.

The Company shall give the notice to the Trustee provided for in this Section 3.01 by a Company Order, at least
45 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee).  If
fewer than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the record date relating to such redemption shall be selected by the Company and given to
the Trustee, which record date shall not be less than ten days after the date of notice to the Trustee.


SECTION 3.02  
Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed.  If less than all the Securities are
to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed pro rata or by lot or by any other method the Trustee considers fair and
appropriate (so long as such method is not prohibited by the rules of any stock exchange on which the Securities are then listed).  The Trustee
shall make the selection at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date from outstanding Securities not
previously called for redemption.  The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the Principal Amount of Securities that have
denominations larger than $1,000.


                                                 20







Securities and portions of them the Trustee selects shall be in Principal Amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000.  Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption.
The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of the Securities or portions of Securities to be redeemed.


SECTION 3.03  
Notice of Redemption.  At least 30 days but not more than
60 days before a Redemption Date, the Company shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder
of Securities to be redeemed.

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






	the Redemption Date;


	the Redemption Price and accrued and unpaid cash interest, if any, payable on the Redemption Date;


	the name and address of the Paying Agent;


	that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price and
accrued and unpaid cash interest, if any;


	if fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the certificate number and Principal Amounts of
the particular Securities to be redeemed;


	that, unless the Company defaults in making payment of such Redemption Price and any cash interest which is
due and payable, interest will cease to accrue on and after the Redemption Date;


	the CUSIP number of the Securities; and


	any other information the Company wants to present.


At the Company's request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption to Holders in the Company's name and at
the Company's expense, provided that the Company makes such request at least five Business Days (unless a shorter period shall be
satisfactory to the Trustee) prior to the date such notice of redemption must be mailed.


SECTION 3.04  
Effect of Notice of Redemption.  Once notice of redemption is given,
Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price (together with accrued and
unpaid cash interest, if any, to but not including the date of redemption) stated in the notice.  Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such
Securities shall be paid at the Redemption Price (together with accrued and unpaid cash interest, if any, to but not including the date of
redemption) stated in the notice.


SECTION 3.05  
Deposit of Redemption Price.  Prior to
11:30 a.m. (New York City time), on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or if the Company or a
Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them is the Paying Agent, shall segregate


                                                 21







and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price
of, and any accrued and unpaid interest to but not including the date of redemption with respect to, all Securities to be redeemed on that date
other than Securities or portions of Securities called for redemption which on or prior thereto have been delivered by the Company to the
Trustee for cancellation.


SECTION 3.06  
Securities Redeemed in Part.  Upon surrender of a Security that is
redeemed in part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Security in an authorized
denomination equal in Principal Amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

SECTION 3.09  
Purchase of Securities at Option of the Holder upon Change in
Control.




	If there shall have occurred a Change in Control, Securities shall be purchased by
the Company, at the option of the Holder thereof, at a purchase price specified in paragraph 6 of the Securities (the "Change
in Control Purchase Price"), as of the date that is no later than 30 Business Days after the occurrence of the Change in Control but
in no event prior to the date on which such Change in Control occurs (the "Change in Control Purchase Date"), subject to

A "Change in Control" means the occurrence of any of the following:  (a) the sale, lease,
transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any "person" or "group" (as such
terms are used in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), (b) the adoption of a plan relating to the liquidation or dissolution of the
Company, (c) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that
any "person" or "group" (as such terms are used in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) becomes the
"beneficial owner" (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 and Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly through
one or more intermediaries, of more than [35%] of the voting power of the outstanding voting stock of the Company, or (d) the
first day on which more than a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company are not Continuing Directors.

"Continuing Directors" means, as of any date of determination, any member of the Board of
Directors of the Company who (a) was a member of the Board of Directors of the Company on February ___, 2009, or (b) was
nominated for election to the Board of Directors of the Company with the approval of, or whose election to the Board of Directors of the
Company was ratified by, at least a majority of the Continuing Directors who were members of the Board of Directors of the Company at the
time of such nomination or election.





                                                 22









	Within 15 Business Days after the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Company shall mail a written notice of
Change in Control by first-class mail to the Trustee and to each Holder (and to beneficial owners as required by applicable law).  The notice
shall include a form of Change in Control Purchase Notice to be completed by the Securityholder and shall state:



	briefly, the events causing a Change in Control and the date of  such Change in Control;


	the date by which the Change in Control Purchase Notice pursuant to this Section 3.09 must be
given;


	the Change in Control Purchase Date;


	the Change in Control Purchase Price and, to the extent known at the time of such notice, the amount of interest, if
any, that will be accrued and payable with respect to the Securities as of the Change in Control Purchase Date;


	the name and address of the Paying Agent;


	that Securities must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect payment of the Change in Control Purchase
Price and accrued and unpaid cash interest, if any;


	that the Change in Control Purchase Price for any Security as to which a Change in Control Purchase Notice has
been duly given and not withdrawn, together with any accrued interest payable with respect thereto, will be paid promptly following the later of
the Change in Control Purchase Date and the time of surrender of such Security as described in (6);


	briefly, the procedures the Holder must follow to exercise rights under this Section 3.09;


	the procedures for withdrawing a Change in Control Purchase Notice;


	that, unless the Company defaults in making payment of such Change in Control Purchase Price and contingent
interest, if any on Securities surrendered for purchase, cash interest on Securities surrendered for purchase will cease to accrue on and after
the Change in Control Purchase Date; and


	the CUSIP number of the Securities.



	A Holder may exercise its rights specified in Section 3.09(a) upon delivery of
a written notice of purchase (a "Change in Control Purchase Notice") to the Paying Agent at any time prior to the close of
business on the Change in Control Purchase Date, stating:



	the certificate number of the Security which the Holder will deliver to be purchased;




                                                 23










	the portion of the Principal Amount of the Security which the Holder will deliver to be purchased, which portion
must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof; and


	that such Security shall be purchased pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in paragraph 6 of the
Securities.


The delivery of such Security to the Paying Agent prior to, on or after the Change in Control Purchase Date (together
with all necessary endorsements) at the offices of the Paying Agent shall be a condition to the receipt by the Holder of the Change in Control
Purchase Price therefor; provided, however, that such Change in Control Purchase Price shall be so paid pursuant to this
Section 3.09 only if the Security so delivered to the Paying Agent shall conform in all respects to the description thereof set forth in the
related Change in Control Purchase Notice.

The Company shall purchase from the Holder thereof, pursuant to this Section 3.09, a portion of a Security if the
Principal Amount of such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000.  Provisions of this Indenture that apply to the purchase of all of a
Security also apply to the purchase of such portion of such Security.

Any purchase by the Company contemplated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.09 shall be
consummated by the delivery of the consideration to be received by the Holder (together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any) promptly
following the later of the Change in Control Purchase Date and the time of delivery of the Security to the Paying Agent in accordance with this
Section 3.09.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to the Paying Agent the Change in Control
Purchase Notice contemplated by this Section 3.09(c) shall have the right to withdraw such Change in Control Purchase Notice at any
time prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Change in Control Purchase Date by delivery of a written notice of
withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 3.10.

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

The Company shall not be required to comply with this Section 3.09 if a third party mails a written notice of
Change in Control in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with this Section 3.09 and repurchases all Securities for
which a Change in Control Purchase Notice shall be delivered and not withdrawn.


SECTION 3.10  
Effect of Purchase Notice or Change in Control Purchase Notice.
Upon receipt by the Paying Agent of the Change in Control Purchase Notice specified in Section  3.09(c), the Holder
of the Security in respect of which such Change in Control Purchase Notice was given shall (unless such Change in Control Purchase Notice
is withdrawn as specified in the following two paragraphs) thereafter be entitled to receive solely the Change in Control Purchase Price and
any accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such Security.  Such Change in Control Purchase Price and any accrued and unpaid cash
interest, if any, shall be paid to such Holder,


                                                 24







subject to receipt of funds and/or securities by the Paying Agent, promptly following the later of
(x) the Change in Control Purchase Date with respect to such Security (provided the conditions in Section 3.09(c) have been
satisfied) and (y) the time of delivery of such Security to the Paying Agent by the Holder thereof in the manner required by
Section 3.09(c).  


A Change in Control Purchase Notice may be withdrawn by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the
office of the Paying Agent in accordance with the Change in Control Purchase Notice at any time prior to the close of business on the Business
Day prior to the Change in Control Purchase Date specifying:






	the certificate number of the Security in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted,


	the Principal Amount of the Security with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted,
and


	the Principal Amount, if any, of such Security which remains subject to the original Change in Control Purchase
Notice and which has been or will be delivered for purchase by the Company.


There shall be no purchase of any Securities pursuant to Section 3.09 if there has occurred (prior to, on or after, as the
case may be, the giving, by the Holders of such Securities, of the required Change in Control Purchase Notice) and is continuing an Event of
Default (other than a default in the payment of the Change in Control Purchase Price and any accrued and unpaid cash interest with respect to
such Securities).  The Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Securities (x) with respect to which a
Change in Control Purchase Notice has been withdrawn in compliance with this Indenture, or (y) held by it during the continuance of an
Event of Default (other than a default in the payment of the Change in Control Purchase Price and any accrued and unpaid cash interest with
respect to such Securities) in which case, upon such return, the Change in Control Purchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to
have been withdrawn.


SECTION 3.11  
Deposit of
Purchase Price or Change in Control Purchase Price.  Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day
following the Change in Control Purchase Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a
Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 2.04) an
amount of money (in immediately available funds if deposited on such Business Day) sufficient to pay the aggregate Change in Control
Purchase Price, of, and any accrued and unpaid cash interest with respect to, all the Securities or portions thereof which are to be purchased
as of the Change in Control Purchase Date.


SECTION 3.12  
Securities Purchased in Part.  Any Security which is to be purchased only
in part shall be surrendered at the office of the Paying Agent (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such


                                                 25







Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such
Security, without service charge, a new Security or Securities, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate
Principal Amount equal to, and in exchange for, the portion of the Principal Amount of the Security so surrendered which is not
purchased.


SECTION 3.13  
Repayment to the Company.  The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall
promptly return to the Company any cash that remains unclaimed as provided in paragraph 14 of the Securities, together with interest, if
any, thereon (subject to the provisions of Section 7.01(f)), held by them for the payment of the Change in Control Purchase Price or
contingent interest, if any; provided, however, that to the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the
Company pursuant to Section 3.11 exceeds the aggregate Change in Control Purchase Price and the accrued and unpaid contingent
interest with respect to, the Securities or portions thereof which the Company is obligated to purchase as of the Change in Control Purchase
Date, whether as a result of withdrawal or otherwise, then promptly after the Business Day following the Change in Control Purchase Date, the
Trustee shall return any such excess to the Company together with interest, if any, thereon (subject to the provisions of
Section 7.01(f)).

hereunder, sufficient to pay all such amounts then due.

The Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay cash interest on overdue amounts at the rate per annum set
forth in paragraph 1 of the Securities, compounded semiannually, which interest shall accrue from the date such overdue amount was
originally due to the date payment of such amount, including interest thereon, has been made or duly provided for.  All such interest shall be

SECTION 4.02  
SEC and Other Reports.  The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within
15 days after it files such annual and quarterly reports, information, documents and other reports with the SEC, copies of its annual

regulations prescribe) which the Company is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.  The
Company also shall comply with the provisions of TIA Section 314(a).  Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the
Trustee is for


                                                 26







informational purposes only and the Trustee's receipt of the same shall not constitute constructive notice of any information

(as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers' Certificates).

address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the address of the Trustee set forth in
Section 14.02.

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities may be
presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided,
however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or
agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, for such purposes.


SECTION 4.06  
Delivery of Certain Information.  At any time
when the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, upon the request of a Holder or any beneficial holder of

shall not consolidate with or merge with or into any other person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets
to any person, nor will the Company permit any Subsidiary to enter into any such transaction or series of transactions if such transaction or
series of transactions, in the aggregate, would result in a sale, assignment, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
properties and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis to any other person or persons, unless:




	either (1) the Company or such subsidiary shall be the surviving corporation or (2) the person (if other
than the Company) formed by such consolidation or into which the Company or such Subsidiary is merged or the person which acquires by
conveyance, transfer or lease the properties and assets of the Company or such Subsidiary substantially as an entirety (i) shall be
organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia and (ii) shall expressly
assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all of the
obligations of the Company or such Subsidiary under the Securities and this Indenture;


	immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
and


	the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating
that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction,
such supplemental indenture, comply with this Article 5 and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction
have been satisfied.


For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale or otherwise) of the properties and assets of
one or more Subsidiaries (other than to the Company or another Subsidiary), which, if such assets were owned by the Company, would
constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the
properties and assets of the Company.


                                                 28






The successor person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company or the applicable Subsidiary is merged
or the successor person 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 or the applicable Subsidiary under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor had been named
as the Company or the applicable Subsidiary herein; and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the Company or the applicable Subsidiary
shall be discharged from all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities.  Subject to Section 9.06, the Company,
the applicable Subsidiary, the Trustee and the successor person shall enter into a supplemental indenture to evidence the succession and
substitution of such successor person and such discharge and release of the Company and the applicable Subsidiary.

A Guarantor shall not consolidate with or merge into any Person or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets
substantially as an entity to another Person unless the surviving Person assumes the obligations of such Guarantor and the surviving Person
is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, except if all of the
assets or all of the common stock of such Guarantor is sold to a non-affiliate of the Company, in which case the Guarantee is released.


ARTICLE 6



DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES




SECTION 6.01  
Events of Default.  An "Event of Default" occurs
if:






	the Company defaults in payment of any interest when due under the Securities and
such default continues for 30 days;


	the Company defaults in the payment of the Principal Amount, cash interest, or
Change in Control Purchase Price on any Security when the same becomes due and payable at its Stated Maturity, upon redemption, upon
declaration, when due for purchase by the Company or otherwise;


	the Company fails to comply with any of its agreements in the Security or this Indenture (other than those referred
to in clauses (1) and (2) above) and such failure continues for 60 days after receipt by the Company of a Notice of
Default;


	there occurs any default under any Debt, whether such Debt now exists or is created later, which default results in
such Debt becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable, and the
principal amount of all Debt so accelerated, together with all Debt due and payable but not paid prior to the end of any grace period, is
$10,000,000 or more, and such acceleration has not been rescinded or annulled within a period of 10 days after receipt by the Company
of a Notice of Default from the Trustee; provided, however, that if any such default shall be cured, waived, rescinded or
annulled, then the Event of Default by reason thereof shall be deemed not to have occurred;




                                                 29










	any Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect or is declared null and void or any Guarantor denies that it has
any further liability under any Guarantee, or gives notice to such effect (other than by reason of the termination of this Indenture or the release
of any such Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture) and such condition shall have continued for a period of 30 days after written
notice of such failure requiring the Guarantor and the Company to remedy the same shall have been given (x) to the Company by the
Trustee or (y) to the Company and the Trustee by the holders of 25% in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities then
outstanding;


	the Company pursuant to or under or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy
Law:



	commences a voluntary case or proceeding;


	consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding or the commencement of
any case against it;


	consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for any substantial part of its property;


	makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;


	files a petition in bankruptcy or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief; or


	consents to the filing of such petition or the appointment of or taking possession by a Custodian;
or




	a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy
Law that:



	is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding, or adjudicates the Company insolvent or
bankrupt;


	appoints a Custodian of the Company or for any substantial part of its property; or


	orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company;




and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days.

"Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar Federal or state law for the
relief of debtors.

"Custodian" means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under
any Bankruptcy Law.


                                                 30






A Default under clause (3) or clause (4) above is not an Event of Default until the Trustee
notifies the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding notify the
Company and the Trustee, of the Default and the Company does not cure such Default (and such Default is not waived) within the time
specified in clause (3) or clause (4) above after actual receipt of such notice.  Any such notice must specify the
Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a "Notice of Default".

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after it becomes aware of the occurrence thereof,
written notice of any event which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default under
clause (3) or clause (4) above, its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect
thereto.


SECTION 6.02  
Acceleration.  If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(6) or
6.01(7) in respect of the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by written notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least
25% in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the
Principal Amount plus accrued cash interest through the date of declaration on all the Securities to be immediately due and payable.  Upon
such a declaration, such Principal Amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be due and payable immediately.  If an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.01(6) or 6.07 occurs in respect of the Company and is continuing, the Principal Amount plus
accrued cash interest on all the Securities shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part
of the Trustee or any Securityholders.  The Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, by
notice to the Trustee (and without notice to any other Securityholder), may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission
would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of the
Principal Amount plus accrued cash interest that have become due solely as a result of acceleration and if all amounts due to the Trustee
under Section 7.07 have been paid.  No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent
thereto.


SECTION 6.03  
Other Remedies.  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of the Principal Amount plus accrued interest on the Securities or to enforce
the performance of any provision of the Securities or this Indenture.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if the Trustee does not possess any of the Securities or does not
produce any of the Securities in the proceeding.  A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Securityholder in exercising any right or remedy
accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of, or acquiescence in, the Event of Default.
Except as set forth in Section 2.07 hereof, no remedy is exclusive of any other remedy.  All available remedies are cumulative.


SECTION 6.04  
Waiver of Past Defaults.  Subject to
Section 6.02, the Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, by notice to the Trustee
(and without notice to any other Securityholder), may waive an existing Default and its


                                                 31







consequences except (1) an Event of Default
described in Section 6.01(1) or 6.02, or (2) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended
without the consent of each Securityholder affected.  When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.  This Section 6.04 shall be in lieu of Section 316(a)1(B) of the TIA
and such Section 316(a)1(B) is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by the TIA.


SECTION 6.05  
Control by Majority.  The Holders of a
majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee.  However, the Trustee may
refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines in good faith is unduly prejudicial to the
rights of other Securityholders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability unless the Trustee is offered indemnity satisfactory to it.  This
Section 3.05 shall be in lieu of Section 316(a)1(A) of the TIA and such Section 316(a)1(A) is hereby expressly excluded
from this Indenture, as permitted by the TIA.


SECTION 6.06  
Limitation on Suits.  A Securityholder may not pursue any remedy with
respect to this Indenture or the Securities unless:





	the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing;


	the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding make a written
request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;


	such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss,
liability or expense;


	the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of
security or indemnity; and


	the Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding do not give the
Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period.


A Securityholder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of any other Securityholder or to obtain a preference
or priority over any other Securityholder.


SECTION 6.07  
Rights of Holders
to Receive Payment.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of the Principal
Amount, Change in Control Purchase Price, or cash interest in respect of the Securities held by such Holder, on or after the respective due
dates expressed in the Securities, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be
impaired or affected adversely without the consent of such Holder.


                                                 32







SECTION 6.08  
Collection Suit by Trustee.  If an Event of Default described in
Section 6.01(1) or 6.01(2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an
express trust against the Company for the whole amount owing with respect to the Securities and the amounts provided for in
Section 7.07.


SECTION 6.09  
Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any
receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to
the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee
(irrespective of whether the Principal Amount, Change in Control Purchase Price, or cash interest shall then be due and payable as therein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the
payment of any such amount) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,




	to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the Principal Amount, Change in Control Purchase Price, or
accrued and unpaid cash interest and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of
the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel or any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and


	to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official in any such judicial proceeding
is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of
such payments directly to the Holders, to pay the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on
behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder
thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.


SECTION 6.10  
Priorities.  If the Trustee collects any money
pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order:


FIRST:  to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07;

SECOND:  to Securityholders for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities for the Principal Amount, Change in
Control Purchase Price, or accrued and unpaid cash interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to such amounts due
and payable on the Securities; and




                                                 3






THIRD:  the balance, if any, to the Company.




The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Securityholders pursuant to this
Section 6.10.  At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder and the Company a notice that
states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid.


SECTION 6.11  
Undertaking for Costs.  In any suit for the
enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a
court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant (other than the Trustee) in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit,
and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, against any party litigant in
the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant.  This Section 6.11 does not
apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate Principal
Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding.  This Section 6.11 shall be in lieu of Section 315(e) of the TIA and such
Section 315(e) is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by the TIA.


SECTION 6.12  
Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws.  The Company covenants (to
the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or
advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury or other law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which would
prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the Principal Amount, Change in Control Purchase Price, or accrued and
unpaid cash interest, as contemplated herein, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to
the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder,
delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as
though no such law had been enacted.


ARTICLE 7



TRUSTEE




SECTION 7.01  
Duties of Trustee.




	If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it
by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances
in the conduct of such person's own affairs.


	Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:



	the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others;
and




                                                 34










	in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this
Indenture, but in case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee,
the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions 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.

This Section 7.01(b) shall be in lieu of Section 315(a) of the TIA and such Section 315(a) is hereby
expressly excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by the TIA.



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



	this paragraph (c) does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01;


	the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer unless it is
proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and


	the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a
direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05.

Subparagraphs (c)(1), (2) and (3) shall be in lieu of Sections 315(d)(1), 315(d)(2) and
315(d)(3) of the TIA and such Sections 315(d)(1), 315(d)(2) and 315(d)(3) are hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture, as
permitted by the TIA.



	Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b),
(c) and (e) of this Section 7.01.


	The Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any right or power or extend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur any financial liability unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.


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


SECTION 7.02  
Rights of Trustee.  Subject to its duties and responsibilities under the
provisions of Section 7.01, and, except as expressly excluded from this Indenture pursuant to said Section 7.01, subject also to its
duties and responsibilities under the TIA:


                                                 35










	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, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of
indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or
parties;


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

by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or

complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with
such advice or Opinion of Counsel;


	the Trustee shall be under no 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, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the
Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby;


	any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request
or Company Order and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a resolution of the Board of
Directors;


	the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution,
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of
indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or
matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the
books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or
additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;



                                                 36









	the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of
the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a default is received by a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture;


	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, and to each agent,
custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder; and


	the Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officers' Certificate setting forth the names of individuals
and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officers' Certificate may be signed by
any person authorized to sign an Officers' Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously
delivered and not superseded.


SECTION 7.03  
Individual Rights of Trustee.  The Trustee in its individual or any other
capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it
would have if it were not Trustee.  Any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar may do the same with like rights.  However, the Trustee must
comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11.


SECTION 7.04  
Trustee's Disclaimer.  The Trustee makes no representation as to the
validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company's use or application of the proceeds from
the Securities, it shall not be responsible for any statement in the registration statement for the Securities under the Securities Act or in the
Indenture or the Securities (other than its certificate of authentication), or the determination as to which beneficial owners are entitled to
receive any notices hereunder.


SECTION 7.05  
Notice of Defaults.  If a Default occurs and if
it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall give to each Securityholder notice of the Default within 90 days after such
Responsible Officer obtains knowledge of such Default unless such Default shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice.
Except in the case of a Default described in Section 6.01(1) or 6.01(2), the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a
committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Securityholders.  The second
sentence of this Section 7.05 shall be in lieu of the proviso to Section 315(b) of the TIA and such proviso is hereby expressly
excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by the TIA.  The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a Default unless a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee has received written notice of such Default.


SECTION 7.06  
Reports by Trustee to Holders.  Within 60 days after each
May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date of this Indenture, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder a brief report
dated as of such May 15 that complies with TIA Section 313(a), if


                                                 37







required to do so by such Section 313(a).  The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b).


A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Securityholders shall be filed with the SEC and each securities
exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed.  The Company agrees to promptly notify the Trustee whenever the Securities become
listed on any securities exchange and of any delisting thereof.


SECTION 7.07  
Compensation and Indemnity.  The Company agrees:




	to pay to the Trustee from time to time such reasonable compensation as the Company and the Trustee shall from
time to time agree in writing for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited (to the extent permitted by law)
by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);


	to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or
made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses, advances
and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or
bad faith; and


	to indemnify the Trustee or any predecessor, Trustee and their agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any
loss, damage, claim, liability, cost or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses and taxes (other than taxes based upon,
measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee)) incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection
with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim (whether
asserted by the Company or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or
duties hereunder.

To secure the Company's payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Holders shall have been deemed to have
granted to the Trustee a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay the
Principal Amount, Change in Control Purchase Price, or cash interest, if any, on particular Securities.

The Company's payment obligations pursuant to this Section 7.07 shall survive the discharge of this Indenture
and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.  When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in
Section 6.01(6) or 6.01(7), the expenses including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel, are intended to constitute
expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.


SECTION 7.08  
Replacement of Trustee.  The Trustee may
resign by so notifying the Company; provided, however, no such resignation shall be effective until a successor Trustee has
accepted its appointment pursuant to this Section 7.08.  The Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the
time outstanding may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company.  The Company shall remove the Trustee
if:


                                                 38










	the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;


	the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;


	a receiver or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or


	the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.


If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall
promptly appoint, by resolution of its Board of Directors, a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company
satisfactory in form and substance to the retiring Trustee and the Company.  Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall
become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture.  The successor
Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Securityholders.  The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to
the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.07.

DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE



SECTION 8.01  
Discharge of Liability on Securities.
When (i) the Company delivers to the Trustee all outstanding Securities (other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07)
for cancellation or (ii) all outstanding Securities have become due and payable and the Company or any Guarantor irrevocably deposits
with the Trustee or the Paying Agent (if the Paying Agent is not the Company or any of its Affiliates) cash sufficient to pay all amounts due and
owing on all outstanding Securities (other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07), and if in either case the Company pays all
other sums payable hereunder by the Company, then this Indenture shall, subject to Section 7.07, cease to be of further effect.  The
Trustee shall join in the execution of a document prepared by the Company acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture on
demand of the Company accompanied by an Officers' Certificate and Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and expense of the
Company.


SECTION 8.02  
Repayment to the Company.  The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall
return to the Company upon written request any money held by them for the payment of any amount with respect to the Securities that remains
unclaimed for two years, subject to applicable unclaimed property law.  After return to the Company, Holders entitled to the money must look to
the Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another person and the Trustee and
the Paying Agent shall have no further liability to the Securityholders with respect to such money or securities for that period commencing after
the return thereof.


ARTICLE 9



AMENDMENTS




SECTION 9.01  
Without Consent of Holders.  The Company and the Trustee may
amend this Indenture or the Securities without the consent of any Securityholder:






	to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency;


	to comply with Article 5;


	to secure the Company's obligations under the Securities and this Indenture;


	to add to the Company's covenants for the benefit of the Securityholders or to surrender any right or power
conferred upon the Company;


	to make any change to comply with the TIA, or any amendment thereto, or to comply with any requirement of the
SEC in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, or as necessary in connection with the registration of the Securities
under the Securities Act; or




                                                 40










	to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holders (it being understood that any
amendment described in clause (1) above made solely to conform this Indenture to the final offering memorandum provided to
investors in connection with the initial offering of the Securities will be deemed not to adversely affect the rights or interests of
Holders).



SECTION 9.02  
With Consent of
Holders.  With the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the time
outstanding, the Company and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Securities.  However, without the consent of each Securityholder
affected, an amendment to this Indenture or the Securities may not:






	reduce the percentage in Principal Amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment;


	make any change in the manner or rate of accrual of cash interest, reduce the rate of cash interest referred to in
paragraph 1 of the Securities, or extend the time for payment of cash interest on any Security;


	reduce the Principal Amount or cash interest, with respect to any Security, or extend the Stated Maturity of any
Security; 


	reduce the Change in Control Purchase Price of any Security;


	make any Security payable in money or securities other than that stated in the Security;


	make any change in this Section 9.02, except to increase any percentage set forth herein;


	impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment with respect to the Securities; or


	release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Guarantee other than in accordance with the terms of
this Indenture.


It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of
any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to each Holder a notice
briefly describing the amendment.


SECTION 9.03  
Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.  Every supplemental indenture
executed pursuant to this Article shall comply with the TIA.


                                                 41







SECTION 9.04  
Revocation and Effect of Consents, Waivers and Actions.  Until an
amendment, consent, waiver or other action by Holders becomes effective, a consent thereto by a Holder of a Security hereunder is a
continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the Security that evidences the same obligation as
the consenting Holder's Security, even if notation of the amendment, consent, waiver or other action is not made on the Security.  However,
any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to such Holder's Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives
the notice of revocation before the date as of which the amendment, consent, waiver or action is made effective.  After an amendment,
consent, waiver or action becomes effective, it shall bind every Securityholder.


SECTION 9.05  
Notation on or Exchange of Securities.  Securities authenticated and
delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a
notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture.  If the Company shall so determine,
new Securities so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and
executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for outstanding Securities.


SECTION 9.06  
Trustee to Sign Supplemental Indentures.
The Trustee shall sign any supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment contained therein does not
adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee.  If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign such supplemental
indenture.  In signing such supplemental indenture the Trustee shall receive, and (subject to the provisions of Section 7.01) shall be fully
protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 14.04, an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.


SECTION 9.07  
Effect of Supplemental Indentures.  Upon the execution of any
supplemental indenture under this Article, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall
form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder
shall be bound thereby.

PAYMENT OF INTEREST




SECTION 12.01  
Interest Payments.  Cash interest on any Security that is punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any applicable payment date shall be paid to the person in whose name that Security is registered at the close of
business on the Regular Record Date or accrual date, as the case may be, for such interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained
for such purpose.  Each installment of interest on any Security shall be paid in same-day funds by transfer to an account maintained by the
payee located inside the United States, if the payee is the Holder of not less than $1,000,000 aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities and
the Trustee shall have received proper wire transfer instructions from such payee not later than the related Regular Record Date or accrual
date, as the case may be, or, if no such instructions have been received, by check mailed to the payee at its address set forth on the
Registrar's books.  In the case of a permanent Global Security, interest payable on any applicable payment date will be paid to the Depositary,
with respect to that portion of such permanent Global Security held for its account by Cede & Co for the purpose of permitting such
party to credit the interest received by it in respect of such permanent Global Security to the accounts of the beneficial owners
thereof.


SECTION 12.02  
Defaulted Interest.  Except as otherwise specified with respect to the
Securities, any interest on any Security that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, within 30 days following any
applicable payment date (herein called "Defaulted Interest", which term shall include any accrued and unpaid interest that
has accrued on such defaulted amount in accordance with paragraph 1 of the Securities), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the
registered Holder thereof on the relevant Regular Record Date or accrual date, as the case may be, by virtue of having been such Holder, and
such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (1) or
(2) below:






	The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the persons in whose names the Securities
are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following
manner.  The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the
date of the proposed payment (which shall not be less than 25 days after such notice is received by the




                                                 43









Trustee), 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 on or 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 (the "Special Record Date") for the payment
of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment
and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment.  The Trustee shall promptly notify the
Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of
such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities at his
address as it appears on the list of Securityholders maintained pursuant to Section 2.05 not less than 10 days prior to such
Special Record Date.  Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as
aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the persons in whose names the Securities are registered at the close of business on such
Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).



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



SECTION 12.03  
Interest Rights Preserved.  Subject to the foregoing provisions of this
Article 12 and Section 2.06, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in
lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to semiannual and contingent interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by
such other Security.


ARTICLE 13



GUARANTEES




SECTION 13.01  
Guarantees.  The Guarantors jointly
and severally, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the Securities and obligations of the Company hereunder and
thereunder, and guarantee to each Holder of a Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in accordance with the terms hereof, and to
the Trustee on behalf of such Holder, that:  (a) the principal of and cash interest on the Securities will be paid in full when due, whether
at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise (including, without limitation, the amount that would become due but for the
operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Law), together with cash interest and interest on any overdue
interest, to the extent lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be paid in full
or performed, all in accordance with the


                                                 44







terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any
Securities or of any such other obligations, the same shall be paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension
or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration redemption or otherwise.


The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity,
regularity or enforceability of the Securities or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any
Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or
any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor.

The Guarantors hereby waive (to the extent permitted by law) the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand for
payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against
the Company or any other Person, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that the Guarantee of such Guarantor shall not
be discharged as to any Security except by complete performance of the obligations contained in such Security, this Indenture and such
Guarantee.  The Guarantors acknowledge that the Guarantees are a guarantee of payment and not of collection.

The Guarantors hereby agree that, in the event of a default in payment of principal or cash interest on such Security,
whether at its Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption, or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of, or
by, the Holder of such Security, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Indenture, directly against each of the Guarantors to
enforce such Guarantor's Guarantee without first proceeding against the Company or any other Guarantor.  The Guarantor agrees that if, after
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee or any of the Holders are prevented by applicable law from
exercising their respective rights to accelerate the maturity of the Securities, to collect interest on the Securities, or to enforce or exercise any
other right or remedy with respect to the Securities, such Guarantor shall pay to the Trustee for the account of the Holder, upon demand
therefor, the amount that would otherwise have been due and payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be exercised by the
Trustee or any of the Holders.

If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company or any Guarantor, or any
custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or any Guarantor, any amount paid by any of them
to the Trustee or such Holder, the Guarantee of each of the Guarantors, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force
and effect.  The Guarantor further agrees that as between each Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other
hand, (x) subject to this Article 13, the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in
Article 6 hereof for the purposes of the Guarantee of such Guarantor notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing
such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any acceleration of such obligation as provided
in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each Guarantor for the
purpose of the Guarantee of such Guarantor.


                                                 45






Each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or
against the Company for liquidation, reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors
or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Company's assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Securities are, pursuant to
applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Securities, whether as a
"voidable preference," "fraudulent transfer" or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been
made.  In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, for the purposes of the amounts due
under the Guarantees, the Securities shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid
and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.  The form of Guarantee is attached hereto as Exhibit A-2.


SECTION 13.02  
Severability.  In case any provision of any Guarantee 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 13.03  
Future Subsidiaries.  If (a) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
acquires or forms a wholly-owned Subsidiary organized under the laws of the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof or the
District of Columbia or (b) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries acquires or forms any Subsidiary (domestic or foreign) and such
Subsidiary guarantees any indebtedness or other obligations of the Company other than the Guarantees of the Securities, the Company will
cause any such Subsidiary to (i) execute and deliver to the Trustee any amendment or supplement to this Indenture in accordance with
the provisions of Article 9 of this Indenture pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall guarantee all of the obligations on the Securities
(whether for principal, cash interest, and interest accruing after the filing of, or which would have accrued but for the filing of, a petition by or
against the Company under Bankruptcy Law, whether or not such interest is allowed as a claim after such filing in any proceeding under such
law), if any, and other amounts due in connection therewith (including any fees, expenses and indemnities), on a senior unsecured basis and
(ii) deliver to such Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Trustee to the effect that such amendment or
supplement has been duly executed and delivered by such Subsidiary and is in compliance with the terms of this Indenture.  Upon the
execution of any such amendment or supplement, the obligations of the Guarantors and any such Subsidiary under their respective
Guarantees shall become joint and several and each reference to the "Guarantor" in this Indenture shall, be deemed to
refer to all Guarantors, including such Subsidiary.



SECTION 13.04  
Priority of Guarantees.  The Guarantee issued by any Guarantor shall be
unsecured senior obligations of such Guarantor, ranking pari passu with all other existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness of such
Guarantor, if any.


SECTION 13.05  
Limitation of Guarantors' Liability.  Each Guarantor and by its acceptance
hereof each Holder confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee by the Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee not
constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the


                                                 46







Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law or the provisions of its local law relating to fraudulent transfer or conveyance.  To
effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor under its
Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount that will not, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor
result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee constituting such fraudulent transfer or conveyance.


SECTION 13.06  
Subrogation.  Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders
against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 13.01; provided,
however, that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or receive any
payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Company under this Indenture
or the Securities shall have been paid in full.


SECTION 13.07  
Reinstatement.  The Guarantor hereby agrees (and each Person who
becomes a Guarantor shall agree) that the Guarantee provided for in Section 13.01 shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the
case may be, (a) if at any time, payment, or any part thereof, of any obligations or interest thereon is rescinded or must otherwise be
restored by a Holder to the Company upon the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or any Guarantor and (b) at any time any
Guarantor (and each Person who becomes a Guarantor) guarantees any indebtedness or obligations of the Company.


SECTION 13.08  
Release of the Guarantor.  Concurrently with the discharge of the
Securities under Section 8.01, each Guarantor shall be released from all its obligations under its Guarantee under this
Article 13.

So long as no Default exists or with notice or lapse of time or both, would exist, the Guarantee issued by any Guarantor
shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (a) any sale, exchange or transfer to any Person that is not an
Affiliate of the Company of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor owned by the Company, which transaction is otherwise in compliance
with the Indenture or (b) any release or discharge of all guarantees by such Guarantor of any indebtedness or obligations of the
Company other than the Guarantees of the Securities.


SECTION 13.09  
Benefits Acknowledged.  Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive
direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that its guarantee and waivers pursuant to its
Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

[FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE]

Senior Note due 2012




	Interest.
The Company promises to pay interest in cash on the Principal Amount of this Note at the rate per annum of 8.0% from
the Issue Date, or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for, until February 10, 2012.  During such period, the
Company will pay cash interest semiannually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year (each an "Interest
Payment Date") to Holders of record at the close of business on each June 1 and December 1 (whether or not a
business day) (each a "Regular Record Date") immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date.  Cash interest on the
Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided or, if no interest has been paid, from the Issue
Date.  Cash interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

If the Principal Amount hereof or any portion of such Principal Amount is not paid when due (whether upon acceleration
pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Indenture, upon the date set for payment of the Redemption Price pursuant to paragraph 5 hereof,
upon the date set for payment of the Change in Control Purchase Price pursuant to paragraph 6 hereof or upon the Stated Maturity of
this Security) or if interest (including contingent interest, if any) due hereon or any portion of such interest is not paid when due in accordance
with paragraph 5 or 11 hereof, then in each such case the overdue amount shall, to the extent permitted by law, bear interest at the rate
of 3.625% per annum, compounded semiannually, which interest shall accrue from the date such overdue amount was originally due to the
date payment of such amount, including interest thereon, has been made or duly provided for.  All such interest shall be payable on demand.




	Method of Payment.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make payments in respect of Redemption
Prices, Change in Control Purchase Prices, and at Stated Maturity to Holders who surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect such
payments in respect of the Securities.  The Company will pay any cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is
legal tender for payment of public and private debts.  However, the Company may make such cash payments by check payable in such
money.



	Paying Agent and Registrar.
Initially, U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association (the "Trustee"), will act as
Paying Agent and Registrar.  The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice, other than
notice to the Trustee except that the Company will maintain at least one Paying Agent in the State of New York, City of New York, Borough of
Manhattan, which shall initially be an office or agency of the Trustee.  The Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates may act
as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.  


                                                 A-1-2









	Indenture.
The Company issued and the Guarantors have guaranteed the Securities pursuant to an Indenture dated as of
February 10, 2009 (the "Indenture"), among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee.  The terms of the Securities
include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as in effect from
time to time (the "TIA").  Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the
Indenture.  The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Securityholders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of those
terms.

The Securities and the Guarantees are general unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, of the Company and the
Guarantors, respectively, limited to $16,470,991 aggregate Principal Amount (subject to Section 2.07 of the Indenture).  The Indenture
does not limit other indebtedness of the Company, secured or unsecured. 



	Redemption at the Option of the Company.
No sinking fund is provided for the Securities.  The Securities are redeemable as a whole, or from time to time in part,
at any time at the option of the Company in accordance with the Indenture at price equal to the Principal Amount of Securities to be redeemed
plus the amount of accrued and unpaid cash interest, if any, on such amounts (the "Redemption Price"). 



	Purchase by the Company at the Option of the Holder.
At the option of the Holder and subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company shall become
obligated to purchase the Securities held by such Holder no later than 30 Business Days after the occurrence of a Change in Control of the
Company for a Change in Control Purchase Price equal to the Principal Amount of Securities to be purchased plus the amount of accrued and
unpaid cash interest, if any, on such amounts to but not including the Change in Control Purchase Date, which Change in Control Purchase
Price shall be paid in cash.

A third party may make the offer and purchase of the Securities in lieu of the Company in accordance with the
Indenture.

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

If cash sufficient to pay the Change in Control Purchase Price of all Securities or portions thereof to be purchased as of
the Change in Control Purchase Date is deposited with the Paying Agent on the Business Day following the Change in Control Purchase Date,
contingent interest, if any, shall cease to accrue on such Securities (or portions thereof) on such Change in Control Purchase Date and the
Holder thereof shall have no other rights as such (other than the right to receive the Change in Control Purchase Price, if any, upon surrender
of such Security).


                                                 A-1-3









	Notice of Redemption.
Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to
each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at the Holder's registered address.  If money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued
and unpaid contingent interest, if any, with respect to, all Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the Redemption Date is deposited
with the Paying Agent prior to or on the Redemption Date, on such Redemption Date, interest (including contingent interest), if any, shall cease
to accrue on such Securities or portions thereof.  Securities in denominations larger than $1,000 of Principal Amount may be redeemed in part
but only in integral multiples of $1,000 of Principal Amount.



	Defaulted Interest.
Except as otherwise specified with respect to the Securities, any Defaulted Interest on any Security shall forthwith
cease to be payable to the registered Holder thereof on the relevant Regular Record Date or accrual date, as the case may be, by virtue of
having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company as provided for in Section 12.02 of the
Indenture.



	Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.
The Securities are in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 of Principal Amount and
integral multiples of $1,000.  A Holder may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture.  The Registrar may require a
Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or
permitted by the Indenture.  The Registrar need not transfer or exchange any Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of a
Security to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed) or any Securities in respect of which a Change in Control
Purchase Notice has been given and not withdrawn (except, in the case of a Security to be purchased in part, the portion of the Security not to
be purchased) or any Securities for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed



	Persons Deemed Owners.
The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the owner of this Security for all purposes.



	Unclaimed Money.
The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return to the Company upon written request any money held by them for the
payment of any amount with respect to the Securities that remains unclaimed for two years, subject to applicable unclaimed property laws.
After return to the Company, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable
abandoned property law designates another person.


                                                 A-1-4









	Amendment; Waiver.
Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the Indenture or the Securities may be amended with
the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding and
(ii) certain Defaults may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities
at the time outstanding.  Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Securityholder, the Company and
the Trustee may amend the Indenture or the Securities to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, or to comply with
Article 5 of the Indenture, to secure the Company's obligations under this Security or to add to the Company's covenants for the benefit
of the Securityholders or to surrender any right or power conferred, to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with the
qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, or as necessary in connection with the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act or to
make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holders.



	Defaults and Remedies.
Events of Default are set forth in the Indenture.  Subject to certain limitations in the Indenture, if an Event of Default
occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding,
may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately.  Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default which will
result in the Securities becoming due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture.  The Trustee may
refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it.  Subject to certain
limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise
of any trust or power.  The Trustee may withhold from Securityholders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of
amounts specified in clause (i) or (ii) above) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests.



	Trustee Dealings with the Company.
Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other
capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its
Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.




	No Recourse Against Others.
A director, officer, employee, agent, representative, stockholder or equity holder, as such, of the Company shall not
have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such




                                                 A-1-5








obligations or their creation.  By accepting a Security, each Securityholder waives and releases all such liability.  The waiver and
release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.




	Authentication.
This Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the Trustee's Certificate of
Authentication on the other side of this Security.



	Abbreviations.
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Securityholder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in
common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST
(=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act).



	GOVERNING LAW.

THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF
CONFLICTS OF LAW, SHALL GOVERN THE INDENTURE, THE GUARANTEES AND THIS SECURITY.

(iv)we have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that we are capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of purchasing Securities; and




                                                 -1-






(v)we are not acquiring Securities with a view to distribution thereof or with any present intention of offering or
selling Securities, except as permitted below; provided that the disposition of our property and property of any accounts for which we are acting
as fiduciary shall remain at all times within our control.



We understand that the Securities were originally offered and sold in a transaction not involving any public offering
within the United States within the meaning of the Securities Act and that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act, and
we agree, on our own behalf and on behalf of each account for which we acquire any Securities, that if in the future we decide to resell or
otherwise transfer such Securities prior to the date (the "Resale Restriction Termination Date") which is one year after the
later of the last day the Securities of this issue were issued and the last date on which the Company or an affiliate of the Company was the
owner of the Security, such Securities may be resold or otherwise transferred only (i) to the Company or any subsidiary thereof, or
(ii) for as long as the Securities are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, to a person it reasonably believes is a "qualified
institutional buyer" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) that purchases for its own account or for the account of a qualified
institutional buyer to which notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, or (iii) to an Institutional Accredited
Investor that is acquiring the Security for its own account, or for the account of such Institutional Accredited Investor for investment purposes
and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act, or (iv) pursuant to another
available exemption from registration under the Securities Act (if applicable), or (v) pursuant to a registration statement which has been
declared effective under the Securities Act and, in each case, in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United
States or any other applicable jurisdiction and in accordance with the legends set forth on the Securities.  We further agree to provide any
person purchasing any of the Securities from us other than pursuant to clause (v) above a notice advising such purchaser that
resales of such securities are restricted as stated herein.  We understand that the trustee or the transfer agent, as the case may be, for the
Securities will not be required to accept for registration of transfer any Securities pursuant to (iii) or (iv) above except upon
presentation of evidence satisfactory to the Company that the foregoing restrictions on transfer have been complied with.  We further
understand that any Securities will be in the form of definitive physical certificates and that such certificates will bear a legend reflecting the
substance of this paragraph other than certificates representing Securities transferred pursuant to clause (v) above.

We acknowledge that the Company, others and you will rely upon our confirmations, acknowledgments and
agreements set forth herein, and we agree to notify you promptly in writing if any of our representations or warranties herein ceases to be
accurate and complete.

THIS LETTER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF
THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW.
