substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly
appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such
action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered
to the Trustee and, where 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 the Holders signing
such instrument or instruments, proof of execution of any such instrument or of
a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this
Indenture and (subject to Section 601) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and
the Company and any agent of the Trustee or the Company, if made in the manner
provided in this Section.

certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take
acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument
or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by
a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such
certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his
authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing,
or the authority of the person executing the same, may also be proved in any
other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient; and the Trustee may in any
instance require further proof with respect to any of the matters referred to in
this Section.

of holding the same shall be proved by the Security Register.

     

    (d)       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 Board Resolution, 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 provision of this
Indenture not later than six months after the record date.

     

    (e)       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 Trustee, the Security
Registrar, any Paying Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not
notation of such action is made upon such Security.

or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed
with,

     

    (1)       the
Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose
hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee
at its Corporate Trust Office, or

     

    (2)       the
Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose
hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed,
first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to the attention of its
Treasurer at [_____] or any other address subsequently furnished in writing to
the Trustee by the Company.

     

    SECTION
106.  Notice to Holders; Waiver.

     

    Where
this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing
and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event,
at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest
date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such
notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the
failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any
particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to
other Holders. Any notice mailed in the manner prescribed by this Indenture
shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given whether or not received
by any particular Holder. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any
manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive
such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the
equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the
Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of
any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

     

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

     

    In the
case of Global Securities, notices or communications to be given to Holders
shall be given to the Depository, in accordance with its applicable policies
from time to time.

     

    SECTION
107.  Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.

     

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

successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the
Trustee, any additional trustee and any Paying Agents in this Indenture shall
bind their respective successors and assigns.

     

    SECTION
110.  Separability Clause.

     

    In case
any provision of this Indenture or in the Securities shall be invalid, illegal
or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and a Holder
shall have no claim therefor against any party hereto.

     

    SECTION
111.  Benefits of Indenture.

     

    Nothing
in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give to any
Person, other than the parties hereto, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar,
or any Authenticating Agent and their respective successors hereunder and the
Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this
Indenture.

     

    SECTION
112.  Governing Law.

     

      This
Indenture and the Securities shall be governed and construed by and in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York, as applied to contracts made
and performed within the State of New York without regard to principles of
conflicts of laws.

     

    SECTION
113.  Legal Holidays.

     

    In any
case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, the Stated Maturity of
any Security or any date upon which any Defaulted Interest is proposed to be
paid shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding
any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities) payment of interest,
if any, or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made at such Place of
Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at
such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest
Payment Date, Redemption Date, at the Stated Maturity, or on the date for
payment of Defaulted Interest, provided that no interest shall accrue for the
period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Stated
Maturity or date for the payment of Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, to
the date of payment.

     

    SECTION
114.  Indenture and Securities Solely Corporate
Obligations.

     

    No
recourse for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on
any Security, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof,
and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the
Company in this Indenture or in any supplemental indenture, or in any Security,
or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had
against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past,
present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either
directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue
of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any
assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that all such
liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a
consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issuance of the
Securities.

     

    SECTION
115.  Consent of Holders of Securities in a Foreign Currency or
Euros.

     

    Unless
otherwise specified in a certificate delivered pursuant to Section 301 of this
Indenture with respect to a particular series of Securities, whenever for
purposes of this Indenture any action may be taken by the Holders of a specified
percentage in aggregate principal amount of Securities of all series or all
series affected by a particular action at the time Outstanding and, at such
time, there are Outstanding Securities of any series which are denominated in a
coin, currency or currency unit other than Dollars, then the principal amount of
Securities of such series which shall be deemed to be Outstanding for the
purpose of taking such action shall be that amount of Dollars that could be
obtained for the stated Foreign Currency or Euro principal amount of such
Outstanding Securities at the Market Exchange Rate on the record date for the
purpose of taking such action. If the appropriate Market Exchange Rate is not
available for any reason with respect to such currency, the Trustee shall use,
in its sole discretion and without liability on its part, such quotation of the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York or, in the case of Euros, the rate of exchange
as published in Journal, as of the most recent available date, or quotations or,
in the case of Euros, rates of exchange from one or more major banks in The City
of New York or in the country of issue of the currency in question or, in the
case of Euros, in Luxembourg or such other quotations or, in the case of Euros,
rates of exchange as the Trustee, upon consultation with the Company, shall deem
appropriate. All decisions and determinations of the Trustee regarding the
Market Exchange Rate or any alternative determination provided for in the
preceding paragraph shall be in its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of
manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and irrevocably binding upon the
Company and all Holders.

116.  Payment Currency.

     

    If the
principal of and/or interest on (or premium, if any, on) any Securities is
payable in a Foreign Currency or Euros and such Foreign Currency or Euros is not
available for payment due to the imposition of exchange controls or other
circumstances beyond the control of the Company, then the Company shall be
entitled to satisfy its obligations to Holders under this Indenture by making
such payment in Dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate for such
Foreign Currency or Euros on the latest date for which such rate was established
on or before the date on which payment is due. Any payment made under this
Section  in Dollars where the required payment is in a Foreign
Currency or Euros shall not constitute an Event of Default.

principal amount of any series may not be increased to provide for issuances of
additional Securities of such series, unless otherwise provided in such Board
Resolution, supplemental indenture or Officers’ Certificate.

     

    SECTION
302.  Denominations.

     

    The
Securities of each series shall be issuable in registered form without coupons
in such denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by Section 301. In
the absence of any such provisions with respect to the Securities of any series,
the Securities of such series shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and
any integral multiple thereof.

     

    SECTION
303.  Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

     

    The
Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by any two of its Chairman
of the Board, its President, any Vice President, its Treasurer or its Secretary,
under its corporate seal reproduced thereon. The signature of any of these
officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.

     

    Securities
bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time
the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that
such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the
authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at
the date of such Securities.

     

    At any
time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture,
the Company may deliver to the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent for
authentication Securities of any series executed by the Company, together with a
Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the
Trustee or such Authenticating Agent in accordance with the Company Order shall
authenticate and deliver such Securities. If all the Securities of any series
are not to be issued at one time, and if the Board Resolution, Officers’
Certificate or supplemental indenture establishing such series shall so permit,
such Company Order may set forth procedures acceptable to the Trustee for the
issuance of such Securities and the determination of the terms of particular
Securities of such series such as interest rate, maturity date, date of issuance
and date from which interest shall accrue. If the form or terms of the
Securities of the series have been established in or pursuant to one or more
Board Resolutions as permitted by Sections 201 and 301, in authenticating such
Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture
in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall receive, and (subject to
Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel
stating,

     

    (a)       if
the form of such Securities has been established by or pursuant to Board
Resolution as permitted by Section 201, that such form has been established in
conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and

     

    (b)       if
the terms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to Board
Resolution as permitted by Section 301, that such terms have been established in
conformity with the provisions of this Indenture.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        10

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    If all
the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it shall not be
necessary to deliver an Opinion of Counsel at the time of issuance of each
Security, but such Opinion of Counsel, with appropriate modifications, may
instead be delivered at or prior to the time of issuance of the first Security
of such series.

     

    The
Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall have the right to authenticate and
deliver any of such Securities if it, being advised by counsel, determines that
such action may not lawfully be taken, or if it, its board of directors,
trustees, executive committee, or a trust committee of directors or trustees
and/or vice presidents shall determine in good faith that such action would
expose it to personal liability to existing Holders or if the issue of such
Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights,
duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a
manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

     

    Each
Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

     

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

     

    SECTION
304.  Temporary Securities.

     

    Pending
the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute,
and upon Company Order the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent 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
evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

     

    Until so
exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be
entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of
such series.

     

    SECTION
305.  Registration, Registration of Transfer and
Exchange.

     

    With
respect to each series of Securities, the Company shall cause to be kept at one
of the offices or agencies maintained pursuant to Section 1002 a register (the
register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency established
by the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively
referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration
of Securities of that series and of transfers of Securities of that series.
Pursuant to Section 301, the Company shall appoint, with respect to Securities
of each series, a “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering such
Securities and transfers and exchanges of such Securities as herein provided. In
the event the Trustee shall not be Security Registrar, it shall have the right
to examine the Security Register at all reasonable times.

     

    Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the
designated office or agency in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company
shall execute, and the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and
deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more
new Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like
tenor, aggregate principal amount and Stated Maturity.

     

    At the
option of the Holder, Securities of any series (except Global Securities) may be
exchanged for other Securities of the same series, of any authorized
denominations and of a like tenor, aggregate principal amount and Stated
Maturity, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or
agency and upon payment, if the Company shall so require, of the charges
hereinafter provided. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange,
the Company shall execute, and the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent shall
authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is
entitled to receive.

     

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

     

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

     

    No
service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of
Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any
registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges
pursuant to Section 304, 906 or 1107 not involving any transfer.

    The
Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange
Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15
days before the day of selection for redemption of Securities of that series
selected for redemption under Section 1103 and ending at the close of business
on the day of the mailing of notice of redemption, or (ii) to register the
transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in
part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in
part.

     

    SECTION
306.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

     

    If there
shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) a mutilated Security or
evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security
and (ii) such security or indemnity bond as may be determined in the reasonable
judgment of the Company or the Trustee, as the case may be, to protect the
Company, the Trustee and any agent of either of them from any loss which any of
them may suffer if a Security is replaced, then, in the absence of notice to the
Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its request the Trustee or an
Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu
of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the
same series and of like tenor, principal amount and Stated Maturity and 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, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a
new Security, pay such Security.

     

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

     

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

     

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

     

    SECTION
307.  Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved; Optional
Interest Reset.

     

    (a)       Except
as otherwise specified with respect to a series of Securities in accordance with
the provisions of Section 301, interest on any Security which is payable, and is
punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid
to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor
Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date
for such interest.

     

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

     

    (1)       The
Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in
whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor
Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for
the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following
manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of
Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the
date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit
with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be
paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements
satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed
payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the
Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided.
Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such
Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10
days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after
the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee
shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name
and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of
such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed,
first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of such series at his
address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than l0 days prior to
such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted
Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such
Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of
such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the
close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable
pursuant to the following Clause (2).

     

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

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        12

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

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

     

    (b)       The
provisions of this Section 307(b) may be made applicable to any series of
Securities pursuant to Section 301 (with such modifications, additional or
substitutions as may be specified pursuant to such Section 301). The interest
rate on any Security of such series may be reset by the Company on the date or
dates specified on the face of such Security (each an “Optional Reset Date”).
The Company may exercise such option with respect to a Security by notifying the
Trustee of all of the relevant information relating to such exercise at least 50
but not more than 60 days prior to an Optional Reset Date, the Trustee shall
transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 106, to the Holder of any such
Security a notice (the “Reset Notice”) indicating whether the Company has
elected to reset the interest rate, and if so (i) such new interest rate and
(ii) the provisions, if any, for redemption during the period from such Optional
Reset Date to the next Optional Reset Date or if there is no such next Optional
Reset Date, to the Stated Maturity Date of such Security (each such period a
“Subsequent Interest Period”), including the date or dates on which or the
period or periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption
may occur during the Subsequent Interest Period.

     

    Notwithstanding
the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the Optional Reset Date, the
Company may, at its option, revoke the interest rate provided for in the Reset
Notice and establish a higher interest rate for the Subsequent Interest Period
by causing the Trustee to transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 106,
notice of such higher interest rate to the Holder of such Security. Such notice
shall be irrevocable. All Securities with respect to which the interest rate is
reset on an Optional Reset Date will bear such higher interest
rate.

     

    The
Holder of any such Security will have the option to elect repayment by the
Company of the principal of such Security on each Optional Reset Date at a price
equal to the principal amount thereof plus interest accrued to such Optional
Reset Date. In order to obtain repayment on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder
must follow the procedures set forth in Article Thirteen for repayment at the
option of Holders, as such apply to such Security, except that the period for
delivery or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but not more than
35 days prior to such Optional Reset Date and except that, if the holder has
tendered any Security for repayment pursuant to the Reset Notice, the Holder
may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender or repayment until the
close of business on the tenth day before such Optional Reset Date.

     

    Subject
to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 305, each Security
delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange
for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued
and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other
Security.

     

    SECTION
308.  Persons Deemed Owners.

     

    Prior to
due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the
Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent and any other agent of the
Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is
registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of
principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 307) interest, if
any, on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such
Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent, any
Authenticating Agent nor any other agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

     

    None of
the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar will have
any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or
payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in a Global Security
or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such
beneficial ownership interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to
any Global Security, 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 any Depositary, as a
Holder, with respect to such Global Security or impair, as between such
Depositary and owners of beneficial interests in such Global Security, the
operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of such
Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such Global Security.

     

    SECTION
309.  Cancellation.

     

    All
Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or
exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if 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. 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 shall be destroyed by the Trustee and the Trustee shall deliver a
certificate of such destruction to the Company, unless the Company by Company
Order shall direct that such cancelled Securities be returned to
it.

    SECTION
310.  Computation of Interest.

     

    Except as
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series,
interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

     

    SECTION
311.  Global Securities.

     

    If the
Company shall establish pursuant to Section 301 that the Securities of a series
are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global
Securities, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance
with Section 303 and the Company Order with respect to such series, authenticate
and deliver one or more Global Securities in temporary or permanent form that
(i) shall represent and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such series to be represented
by one or more Global Securities, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the
Depositary for such Global Security or Securities or the nominee of such
depositary, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depositary or
pursuant to such Depositary’s instruction, and (iv) shall bear a legend
substantially to the following effect: “This Security is a Global Security
within the meaning of the Indenture hereinafter referred to, and is registered
in the name of the Depository or a nominee of the Depository. This Security is
exchangeable for Securities registered in the name of a Person other than the
Depository or its nominee only in the limited circumstances described in the
Indenture, and may be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a
nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or
another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a
successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.” The Trustee
shall deal with the Depositary and its participants as representatives of the
Beneficial Owners of the Global Securities for purposes of exercising the rights
of the Holders hereunder and the rights of the Beneficial Owners of the Global
Securities shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between
such Beneficial Owners and the Depositary and its participants. Beneficial
Owners shall not be entitled to certificates for Global Securities as to which
they are the Beneficial Owners. Requests and directions from, and votes of, such
representatives shall not be deemed to be inconsistent if they are made with
respect to different Beneficial Owners.

     

    Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Section or Section 305, unless and until it is
exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in definitive form, a Global
Security representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be
transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of
such Depositary, by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another
nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a
successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor depositary.
The Beneficial Owner’s ownership of Securities shall be recorded on the records
of a participant of the Depositary that maintains such Beneficial Owner’s
account for such purpose and the participant’s record ownership of such
Securities shall be recorded on the records of the Depositary.

     

    If at any
time the Depositary for the Securities of a series notifies the Company that it
is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Securities of such
series or if at any time the Depositary for Securities of a series ceases to be
a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, or other applicable statute or regulation, the Company shall appoint a
successor Depositary with respect to the Securities of such series. If a
successor Depositary for the Securities of such series is not appointed by the
Company within 90 days after the Company receives written notice or becomes
aware of such condition, the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt
of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities
of such series, will authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series, with
like tenor and terms, in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal
to the principal amount of the Global Security or Securities representing such
series in exchange for such Global Security or Securities.

     

    The
Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Securities
of any series issued in the form of one or more Global Securities shall no
longer be represented by such Global Security or Securities. In such event, the
Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the
authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, will
authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series, with like tenor and terms,
in definitive form and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal
amount of the Global Security or Securities representing such series in exchange
for such Global Security or Securities.

     

    If
specified by the Company pursuant to Section 301 with respect to Securities of a
series, the Depositary for such series of Securities may surrender a Global
Security for such series of Securities in exchange in whole or in part for
Securities of such series in definitive form on such terms as are acceptable to
the Company and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Company shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, without charge,

     

    (i)       to
each Person specified by the Depositary a new Security or Securities of the same
series of like tenor and terms of any authorized denomination as requested by
such Person in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for such
Person’s beneficial interest in the Global Security; and

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        14

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (ii)       to
the Depositary a new Global Security in a denomination equal to the difference,
if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered Global Security and the
aggregate principal amount of Securities delivered to Holders
thereof.

     

    Upon the
exchange of a Global Security for Securities in definitive form, such Global
Security shall be cancelled by the Trustee. Securities issued in exchange for a
Global Security pursuant to this Section  shall be registered in such
names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Global
Security, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or
otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities
to the persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

     

    The
Depository, as a Holder, may appoint agents and otherwise authorize participants
to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action which a Holder is entitled to give or take under this
Indenture.

     

    Notwithstanding
the other provisions of this Indenture, unless otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 301, payment of the principal of, and interest and
premium, if any, on, any Global Security shall be made to the Depository or its
nominee in its capacity as the Holder thereof. Further, the Company, the Trustee
and any Authentication Agent shall treat a Person as the Holder of such
principal amount of outstanding Securities of any series represented by a Global
Security as shall be specified in a written statement of the Depository (which
may be in the form of a participants’ list for such series) with respect to such
Global Security, for purposes of obtaining any consents, declarations, waivers
or directions required to be given by the Holders pursuant to this Indenture,
provided, that until the Trustee is so provided with a written statement, it may
treat the Depository or any other Person in whose name a Global Security is
registered as the owner of such Global Security for all purposes, and none of
the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

     

    SECTION
312.  Optional Extension of Maturity.

     

    The
provisions of this Section may be made applicable to any series of Securities
pursuant to Section 301 (with such modifications, additions or substitutions as
may be specified pursuant to such Section 301). The Stated Maturity of any
Security of such series may be extended at the option of the Company for the
period or periods specified on the face of such Security (each an “Extension
Period”) up to but not beyond the date (the “Final Maturity”) set forth on the
face of such Security. The Company may exercise such option with respect to any
Security by notifying the Trustee of such exercise at least 50 but not more than
60 days prior to the Stated Maturity of such Security in effect prior to the
exercise of such (the “Original Stated Maturity”). If the Company exercises such
option, the Trustee shall transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 106,
to the Holder of such Security not later than 40 days prior to the Original
Stated Maturity a notice (the “Extension Notice”) indicating (i) the election of
the Company to extend the Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity Date, (iii) the
interest rate applicable to the Extension Period and (iv) the provisions, if
any, for redemption during such Extension Period. Upon the Trustee’s transmittal
of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity Date of such Security shall be
extended automatically and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as
described in the next paragraph, such Security will have the same terms as prior
to the transmittal of such Notice.

     

    Notwithstanding
the foregoing, not later than 20 days before the Original Stated Maturity of
such Security, the Company may, at its option, revoke the interest rate provided
for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher interest rate for the
Extension Period by causing the Trustee to transmit, in the manner provided for
in Section 106, notice of such higher interest rate to the Holder of such
Security. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Securities with respect to which
the Stated Maturity is extended will bear such higher interest
rate.

     

    If the
Company extends the Maturity of any Security, the Holder will have the option to
elect repayment of such Security by the Company on the Original Stated Maturity
at a price equal to the outstanding principal amount thereof, plus interest
accrued to such date. In order to obtain repayment on the Original Stated
Maturity once the Company has extended the Maturity thereof, the Holder of an
Outstanding Security must follow the procedures set forth in Article Thirteen
for repayment at the option of Holders, as such applies to the Securities of
such series, except that the period for delivery or notification to the Trustee
shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to the Original Stated
Maturity and except that, if the Holder has tendered any Security for repayment
pursuant to an Extension Notice, the Holder may by written notice to the Trustee
revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day
before the Original Stated Maturity unless the Trustee has previously delivered
repayment of such Security to such Holder.

     

    SECTION
313.  CUSIP and ISIN Numbers.

     

    The
Company in issuing the Securities may use one or more “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers
(if then generally in use), and, if the Company does so, the Trustee shall use
the CUSIP number(s) and ISIN numbers in notices of redemption or exchange as a
convenience to Holders, provided, that any such notice may state that no
representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP and ISIN
number(s) printed in the notice or on the Securities, and that reliance may be
placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and
that any such redemption or exchange shall not be affected by any defect in or
omission of any such numbers.

    SATISFACTION
AND DISCHARGE

     

    SECTION
401.  Satisfaction and Discharge of Securities of any
Series.

     

    The
Company shall be deemed to have satisfied and discharged the entire indebtedness
on all the Securities of any particular series and the Trustee, upon Company
request and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of such indebtedness, when

     

    (1)       either:

     

    (A)        all
Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than
(i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been
replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 and (ii) Securities for whose
payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in
trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from
such trust, as provided in the last paragraph of Section 1003) have been
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

     

    (B)         with
respect to all Outstanding Securities of such series described in (A) above not
theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation,

     

    (i)       The
Company has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds
in trust an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on
all such Outstanding Securities of such series for principal (and premium, if
any) and interest to the Stated Maturity or any Redemption Date as contemplated
by Section 403, as the case may be; or

     

    (ii)       The
Company has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as obligations
in trust such amount of direct obligations of, or obligations the principal of
and interest on which are fully guaranteed by, the United States of America
(other than obligations subject to prepayment, redemption or call prior to their
stated maturity) as will, together with the predetermined and certain income to
accrue thereon (without consideration of any reinvestment thereof), be
sufficient to pay and discharge when due the entire indebtedness on all such
Outstanding Securities of such series for principal (and premium, if any) and
interest to the Stated Maturity or any Redemption Date as contemplated by
Section 403, as the case may be;

     

    (2)       the
Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable with respect to the
Securities of such series;

     

    (3)       the
Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating
to the satisfaction and discharge of the entire indebtedness on all Securities
of such series have been complied with; and

     

    (4)       if
the entire indebtedness on the Outstanding Securities of such series is to be
satisfied and discharged pursuant to Section 401(l)(B) above, then (i) the
Company shall have specified the applicability (as provided in Section 301) of
this Section 401(4) to the Securities of such series, (ii) the Company shall
have given, not later than the date of such deposit, notice of such deposit to
the Holders of Securities of such series and (iii) the Trustee shall have
received an Opinion of Counsel (which Counsel shall be recognized tax counsel)
stating that, (x) the Company has received from the Internal Revenue Service a
ruling or (y) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the
applicable federal income tax law, including by means of a Revenue Ruling
published by the Internal Revenue Service, in either case to the effect that,
and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that the deposit of funds
or obligations and the satisfaction and discharge of indebtedness on the
Securities of such series pursuant to this Section will not result in
recognition by the Holders of income, gain or loss for federal income tax
purposes (other than income, gain or loss which would have been recognized in
like amount and at a like time absent such deposit, satisfaction and discharge),
provided that the Company will be discharged from the requirements of Article
Eight if (i) it has satisfied all of the requirements for satisfaction and
discharge of the indebtedness on the Outstanding Securities pursuant to Section
401(1)(B) except for the delivery of the Opinion of Counsel described above, and
(ii) the Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel stating that the
Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes
as a result of the deposit of such funds or obligations and will be subject to
federal tax in the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as
would have been the case if such deposit of funds or obligations had not
occurred.

     

    Upon the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section with respect to all the
Securities of any series, the terms and conditions of such series, including the
terms and conditions with respect thereto set forth in this Indenture, shall no
longer be binding upon, or applicable to, the Company, and the Holders of the
Securities of such series shall look for payment only to the funds or
obligations deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401(l)(B); provided,
however, that, in no event shall the Company be discharged (a) from any payment
obligations in respect of Securities of such series which are deemed not to be
Outstanding under clause (iii) of the definition thereof if such obligations
continue to be valid obligations of the Company under applicable law, (b) from
any obligations under Section 607 or the last paragraph of Section 1003, and (c)
from any obligations under Section 305 and 306 (except that Securities of such
series issued upon registration of transfer or exchange or in lieu of mutilated,
lost, destroyed or stolen Securities shall not be obligations of the Company),
and Section 701.

402.  Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

     

    Upon
compliance by the Company with the provisions of Section 401 as to the
satisfaction and discharge of each series of Securities issued hereunder, this
Indenture shall cease to be of any further effect (except as otherwise provided
herein). Upon Company Request (and at the expense of the Company), the Trustee
shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture. In the event there are two or more Trustees hereunder, then the
effectiveness of any such instrument shall be conditioned upon receipt of such
instruments from all Trustees hereunder.

     

    Notwithstanding
the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, any obligations of the Company
under Sections 305, 306, 607 and 701 and the last paragraph of Section 1003, and
of the Trustee under Sections 403 and 613 and the last two paragraphs of Section
1003, shall survive.

     

    SECTION
403.  Application of Trust Money.

     

    Subject
to the provisions of the last two paragraphs of Section 1003, all money and
obligations deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held
irrevocably in trust and shall be made under the terms of an escrow trust
agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee. Such money and
obligations shall be applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions
of the Securities, this Indenture and such escrow trust agreement, to the
payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company
acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons
entitled thereto, of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if
any, on the Securities for the payment of which such money and obligations have
been deposited with the Trustee (but such money need not be segregated from
other funds except to the extent required by law). If Securities of any series
are to be redeemed prior to their Stated Maturity, whether pursuant to any
optional redemption provisions or in accordance with any mandatory sinking fund
requirement, the Company shall make such arrangements as are satisfactory to the
Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and
at the expense, of the Company.

series of Securities other than that series), and continuance of such default or
breach for a period of 90 days after there has been given, by registered or
certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee

    (7)       any
other Event of Default provided with respect to the Securities of that series
pursuant to Section 301 or in a supplemental indenture.

     

    SECTION
502.  Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

     

    If an
Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at the time
Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the
Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities
of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if the Securities of that
series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal
amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of all of the Securities
of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the
Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration
such principal amount (or specified portion) shall become immediately due and
payable.

     

    Upon
payment of such amount, all obligations of the Company in respect of the payment
of principal of the Securities of such series shall terminate.

     

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

     

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

     

    (A)        all
overdue interest, if any, on all Securities of that series,

     

    (B)         the
principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of that series which have
become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest
thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such
Securities,

     

    (C)         to
the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue
interest at the rate or rates, if any, prescribed therefor in such Securities,
and

     

    (D)         all
sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel;
and

     

    (2)       all
Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the
non-payment of the principal of Securities of that series which have become due
solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured, or waived as
provided in Section 513.

     

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

     

    SECTION
503.  Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Trustee.

     

    The
Company covenants that if:

     

    (1)       default
is made in the payment of any interest on any Security of any series when such
interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30
days, or

     

    (2)       default
is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security
of any series at the Maturity thereof, the Company will, upon demand of the
Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of Securities of such series,
the whole amount then due and payable on Securities of such series for principal
(and premium, if any) and interest and, to the extent that payment of such
interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal (and
premium, if any) and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates, if any,
prescribed therefor in such Securities; and, in addition thereto, such further
amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection,
including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

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

     

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

     

    SECTION
504.  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 of the Securities shall then be
due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration of acceleration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on
the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled
and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

     

    (i)        to
file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (or with respect to
Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may
be specified in the terms of such Securities), and premium, if any and interest
owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities 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) and of the
Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

     

    (ii)       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 other similar official in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the
Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such
payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under
Section 607. 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
505.  Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of
Securities.

     

    All
rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be
prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the
Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any
such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as
trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision
for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of
the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been
recovered.

     

    SECTION
506.  Application of Money Collected.

     

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

     

    FIRST: To
the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 607;

     

    SECOND:
To the payment of all Senior Indebtedness if and to the extent required by
Article Fourteen or other subordination provisions applicable with respect to a
series of Securities; and

     

    THIRD: To
the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium, if
any) and interest, if any, on the Securities in respect of which or for the
benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or
priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such
Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any,
respectively; and

     

    FOURTH:
The balance, if any, to the Company, its successor or assigns or to whoever may
be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction
may direct.

    SECTION
507.  Limitation on Suits.

     

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

     

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

     

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

     

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

     

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

     

    (5)       no
direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee
during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of that series;

     

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

     

    SECTION
508.  Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and
Interest.

     

    Notwithstanding
any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the
right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal
of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 307) interest, if any, on such
Security on the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in
the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the
enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without
the consent of such Holder.

     

    SECTION
509.  Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

     

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

     

    SECTION
510.  Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

     

    Except as
otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 306, no
right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the
Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every
right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in
addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any
right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

     

    SECTION
511.  Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

     

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

     

    SECTION
512.  Control by Holders.

     

    The
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any
series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting
any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust
or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such
series, provided that

     

    (1)       such
direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this
Indenture,

    (2)       the
Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not
inconsistent with such direction,

     

    (3)       such
direction is not unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders,
and

     

    (4)       such
direction would not involve the Trustee in personal liability.

     

    SECTION
513.  Waiver of Past Defaults.

     

    The
Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of
such series waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its
consequences, except a default

     

    (1)       in
the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any
(subject to the provisions of Section 502), on any Security of such series,
or

     

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

     

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

     

    SECTION
514.  Undertaking for Costs.

     

    All
parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his
acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its
discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under
this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such
suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in
its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees at
trial and on appeal, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard
to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party
litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit
instituted by the Company, to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit
instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more
than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, or to
any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the
principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security on or after the
Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of
redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

    SECTION
601.  Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

     

    (a)       Except
during the continuance of an Event of Default,

     

    (1)       the
Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or
obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee;
and

     

    (2)       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 the case of any such certificate
or opinion which by any provision hereof is specifically required to be
furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same
to determine whether or not it conforms to the requirements of this
Indenture.

     

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

     

    (c)       No
provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from
liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its
own willful misconduct, except that

     

    (1)       this
Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of Subsection (a) of this
Section;

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        21

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

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

     

    (3)       the
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or
omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any
series, as provided in Section 512, relating to the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising
any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect
to the Securities of such series; and

     

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

     

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

     

    SECTION
602.  Notice of Defaults.

     

    Within 90
days after the occurrence of any default hereunder with respect to the
Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of
Securities of such series, as their names and addresses appear in the Security
Register, notice of such default hereunder actually known to a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee, unless such default shall have been cured or waived;
provided, however, that except in the case of a default in the payment of the
principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Security of such
series, in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to
Securities of such series or in the payment of the Redemption Price of any
Securities as to which notice of redemption has been given, the Trustee shall be
protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors,
the executive committee or a trust committee of directors or Responsible
Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such
notice is in the interest of the Holders of Securities of such series; and
provided, further, that in the case of any default of the character specified in
Section 501(4) with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to
Holders shall be given until at least 60 days after the occurrence thereof. For
the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event which is, or
after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with
respect to Securities of such series.

     

    SECTION
603.  Certain Rights of Trustee.

     

    Subject
to the provisions of Section 601:

     

    (a)       the
Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon
any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,

    SECTION
604.  Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of

    The
recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except certificates of
authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and neither the

Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

     

    SECTION

    The
Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, the Security Registrar or
any other agent of the Company or the Trustee, in their individual or any other
capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections
608 and 612, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would
have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security
Registrar or such other agent.

     

    SECTION
606.  Money Held in Trust.

     

    Money
held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust hereunder need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. Neither the
Trustee nor any paying Agent shall be subject to any liability for interest on
any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the
Company.

     

    SECTION
607.  Compensation and Reimbursement.

     

    The
Company agrees:

     

    (1)       to
pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services
rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any
provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express
trust);

     

    (2)       except
as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its

the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending
themselves against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or
performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder.

     

    As
security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this
Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon all property
and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust
for the payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on
Securities.

     

    The
provisions of this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the
Trustee or the discharge of this Indenture. When the Trustee incurs expenses
after the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5) or (6)
the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any
Bankruptcy Law. The obligations of the Company under this Section shall not be
subordinated to the payment of Senior Indebtedness.

     

    SECTION
608.  Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility; Conflicting
Interests.

     

    This
Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of Trust
Indenture Act Sections 310(a)(1), (2) and (5) in every respect. The Trustee (or
in the case of a Trustee that is a Person included in a bank holding company
system, the related bank holding company) shall have a combined capital and
surplus of at least $100,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published
annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with Trust Indenture Act
Section 310(b), including the provision in Section 310(b)(1). In addition, if
the Trustee is a Person included in a bank holding company system, the Trustee,
independently of such bank holding company, shall meet the capital requirements
of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(a)(2). If at any time the Trustee shall cease
to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall
resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this
Article.

    SECTION
609.  Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

     

    (a)       No
resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee
or Trustees pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance
of appointment by the successor Trustee or Trustees in accordance with the
applicable requirements of Section 610.

     

    (b)       The
Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more
series by notifying the Company in writing at least 90 days in advance of such
resignation. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by
Section 610 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 60 days after
the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of such series.

     

    (c)       The
Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series
by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the
Company.

     

    (d)       If
at any time the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 608 after written
request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder
of a Security for at least six months, the Company by a Board Resolution may
remove the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series or, subject to
Section 514, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such
series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others
similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal
of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the appointment
of a successor Trustee.

     

    (e)       If
at any time:

     

    (1)       the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 608 and shall fail to resign
after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a
bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

     

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

     

    then, in
any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with
respect to all Securities, or (ii) subject to Section 514, any holder who has
been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of
himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and
the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

     

    (f)       If
the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a
vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the
Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall
promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities
of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may
be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series
and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the
Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable
requirements of Section 610. If, within one year after such resignation, removal
or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series
delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so
appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance
with the applicable requirements of Section 610, become the successor Trustee
with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the
successor Trustee appointed by the Company with respect to such series. If no
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been
so appointed by the Company or the Holders of the Securities of such series and
accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 610, any Holder who has
been a bona fide holder of a Security of such series for at least six months
may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court
of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of such series.

     

    (g)       The
Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee
with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor
Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series by mailing written notice
of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities
of such series as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register.
Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust
Office.

     

    SECTION
610.  Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all
series of Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument
accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the
retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights,
powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the
Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of
its charges due pursuant to Section 607, execute and deliver an instrument
transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the
retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor
Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder subject
to the lien provided in Section 607.

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

     

    (c)       Upon
request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all
instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such
successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph
(a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be.

     

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

     

    SECTION
611.  Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to
Business.

     

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

     

    SECTION
612.  Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to Trust Indenture Act Section
311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

     

    SECTION
613.  Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

     

    At any
time when any of the Securities remain Outstanding the Trustee may appoint an
Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities
which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate and
deliver Securities of such series with respect to which it has been so
designated, and Securities so authenticated and delivered shall be entitled to
the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all
purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder.

     

    Wherever
reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of
Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such
reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of
the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication
executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each
Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times
be a bank or trust company or corporation organized and doing business and in
good standing under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the
District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent,
having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 and subject
to supervision or examination by Federal, State or District of Columbia
authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or
examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital
and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so
published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall
resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this
Section.

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

     

    An
Authenticating Agent may resign with respect to one or more series of Securities
at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company.
The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent with
respect to one or more series of Securities by giving written notice thereof to
such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of
resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating
Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall mail written notice of
such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all holders of
Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will
serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Any
successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder
shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor
hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent.
No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the
provisions of this Section.

     

    The
Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable
compensation for its services under this Section. The provisions of Sections
104, 111, 603, 604 and 605 shall be applicable to any Authenticating
Agent.

     

    Pursuant
to each appointment made under this Section, the Securities of each series
covered by such appointment may have endorsed thereon, in lieu of the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in
substantially the following form:

     

    This is
one of the Securities, of the series designated herein, issued under the
within-mentioned Indenture.

INDENTURES

     

    SECTION
901.  Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders.

     

    Without
the consent of any Holder, the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution,
and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, may enter into one or more
indentures supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of
the following purposes:

     

    (1)       to
evidence the succession of another corporation to the Company and the assumption
by any such successor of the covenants of the Company herein and in the
Securities; or

     

    (2)       to
add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Holders of all or any
series of Securities (and if such covenants are to be for the benefit of less
than all series of Securities, stating that such covenants are expressly being
included solely for the benefit of such series) or to surrender any right or
power herein conferred upon the Company; provided, however, that in respect of
any such additional covenant, such supplemental indenture may provide for a
particular period of grace after default in the performance of such covenant
(which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the case of other
defaults) or may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such default or may
limit the remedies available to the Trustee upon such default; or

     

    (3)       to
add any additional Events of Default; or

     

    (4)       add
to or change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture to extent as
shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the issuance of Securities in bearer
form, registrable or not registrable as to principal, and with or without
interest coupons; or

     

    (5)       to
change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture, provided that any
such change or elimination shall become effective only when there is no Security
Outstanding of any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental
indenture which is entitled to the benefit of such provision; or

     

    (6)       to
secure the Securities; or

     

    (7)       to
establish the form or terms of Securities of any series as permitted by Sections
201 and 301; or

     

    (8)       to
evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor
Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series and to add to or
change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide
for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one
Trustee, pursuant to the requirements of Section 610(b); or

     

    (9)       to
cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein which may be
inconsistent with any other provision herein, or to make any other provisions
with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture, provided such
action shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of Securities of
any series in any material respect.

     

    SECTION
902.  Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders.

     

    With the
consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of each series (each such series voting as a separate
class) affected by such supplemental indenture, by Act of said Holders delivered
to the Company and the Trustee, the Company, when authorized by a Board
Resolution, and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures
supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in
any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of
modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series
under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture
shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected
thereby,

     

    (1)       change
the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of principal of or
interest on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of
interest thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or modify
the manner of determination of the rate of interest thereon so as to affect
adversely the interest of such Holder or reduce the amount of the principal of
an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a
declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 502, or
change any Place of Payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any
Security or any premium or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right
to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated
Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption
Date), or

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        28

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

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

     

    (3)       modify
any of the provisions of this Section, Section 513 or Section 1006, except to
increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of this
Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Security affected thereby, provided, however, that this clause shall
not be deemed to require the consent of any Holder with respect to changes in
the references to the “Trustee” and concomitant changes in this Section and
Section 1006, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the
requirements of Sections 610(b) and 901(8).

     

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

     

    The
Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not any Securities would be
affected by any supplemental indenture and any such determination shall he
conclusive upon the Holders of all Securities of any series. The Trustee shall
not be liable for any such determination made in good faith.

     

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

     

    SECTION
903.  Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

     

    In
executing or accepting the additional trusts created by any supplemental
indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts
created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be provided, and (subject to
Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel
stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or
permitted by this Indenture and that such supplemental indenture, when executed
and delivered by the Company, will constitute a valid and binding obligation of
the Company in accordance with its terms. The Trustee may, but shall not be
obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the
Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or
otherwise.

     

    SECTION
904.  Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

     

    Upon the
execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this
Article, this Indenture shall, with respect to such series, be deemed to be
modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights,
limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture
of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of Securities of the series affected
thereby shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject
in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and
conditions of any such supplemental indenture, with respect to such series,
shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture
for any and all purposes.

     

    SECTION
905.  Conformity with Trust Indenture Act.

     

    Every
supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article shall conform to the
requirements of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in effect on such
date.

     

    SECTION
906.  Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures.

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

of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the Securities of each series
in accordance with the terms of the Securities of such series and this
Indenture.

    SECTION
1002.  Maintenance of Office or Agency.

     

    The
Company will cause to be maintained in each Place of Payment for any series of
Securities an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented
or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered
for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or
upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture
may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the
location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. With respect
to the Securities of any series such office or agency and each place of Payment
shall be as specified as contemplated in Section 301. In the absence of any such
provisions with respect to the Securities of any series (i) the place of payment
for such securities shall be the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, New
York, and (ii) such office or agency in such Place of Payment shall be the
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee therein. If at any time the Company shall
fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the
Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and
demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and
the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

     

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

     

    SECTION
1003.  Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust.

     

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

     

    Whenever
the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities,
it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or
interest, if any, on any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent
a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any,
so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the persons
entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent
is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or
failure so to act.

     

    The
Company will cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee for any series of
Securities to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such
paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this
Section, that such Paying Agent will:

     

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

     

    (2)       give
the Trustee written notice within three Business Days of any default by the
Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making
of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on the
Securities of that series; and

     

    (3)       at
any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of
the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such
Paying Agent.

     

    The
Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order
direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the
Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same
trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying
Agent; and, upon such payment by any paying Agent to the Trustee, such paying
agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.
Upon the satisfaction and discharge of the indebtedness in respect of all
Outstanding Securities of any series all sums then held by any Paying Agent
(other than the Trustee) in respect thereof shall, upon demand of the Company,
be repaid to it or paid to the Trustee, and thereupon such Paying Agent shall be
released from all further liability with respect to such money.

     

    The
Trustee and any Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Company upon Company
Request any money or securities held by them at any time in excess of amounts
necessary to satisfy amounts payable to the Holders, the Trustee and the Paying
Agent.

    Any money
deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in
trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if
any, on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after
such principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, has become due and
payable shall, unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of applicable
escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property law, be paid to the Company on
Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such
trust; and the Holder of such Security shall, unless otherwise required by
mandatory provisions of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property
law, thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for
payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with
respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee
thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such
Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the
expense of the Company cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in
the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general
circulation in each Place of Payment with respect to Securities of such series,
notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified
therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication,
any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will, unless otherwise
required by mandatory provisions of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed
property law, be repaid to the Company.

Certificate which complies with Trust Indenture Act Section 314(a)(4) and need
not comply with Section 102, stating as to each signer thereof that

     

    (1)       a
review of the activities of the Company during such year and of performance
under this Indenture has been made under his supervision, and

     

    (2)       as
of the end of such year and at the date of the certificate to the best of his
knowledge, based on such review, (a) the Company is not in default in the
fulfillment of any of its obligations under this Indenture, or specifying each
such default known to him and the nature and status thereof and (b) no event has
occurred and is continuing which is or after notice or lapse of time or both
would become an Event of Default, or, if such an event has occurred and is
continuing, specifying each such event known to him and the nature and status
thereof.

     

    SECTION
1006.  Waiver of Certain Covenants.

     

    The
Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or
condition set forth in Sections 1002 to 1005, each inclusive, or a supplemental
indenture with respect to the Securities of any series if before the time for
such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either
waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such
covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such
covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such
waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of
the Trustee with respect to any such covenant or condition shall remain in full
force and effect.

    REDEMPTION
OF SECURITIES

     

    SECTION
1101.  Applicability of Article.

     

    Securities
of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be
redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series) in accordance with
this Article.

     

    SECTION
1102.  Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

     

    The
election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a Board
Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less
than all the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 45 days
(unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) prior to the
Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice, but not less than
30 days, shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee in writing of
such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to
be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration
of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities
or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an
Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. Any such
notice may be canceled at any time prior to notice of such redemption being
mailed to any Holder, and shall thereby be void and of no effect.

    SECTION
1103.  Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed.

     

    If less
than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the particular
Securities to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee not more than 45 days
prior to the Redemption Date, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not
previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair
and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of
portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that
series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities
of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination
for Securities of that series. In any case where Securities of such series are
registered in the same name, the Trustee in its discretion may treat the
aggregate principal amount so registered as if it were represented by one
Security of such series. If the Securities of any series to be redeemed consist
of Securities having different Stated Maturities or different rates of interest
(or methods of computing interest), then the Company may, by written notice to
the Trustee, direct that the Securities of such series to be redeemed shall be
selected from among groups of such Securities having specified Stated Maturities
or rates of interest (or methods or computing interest) and the Trustee shall
thereafter select the particular Securities to be redeemed in the manner set
forth above from among the groups of such Securities so specified.

     

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

     

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

     

    SECTION
1104.  Notice of Redemption.

     

    Notice of
redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less
than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of
Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security
Register.

     

    All
notices of redemption shall state:

     

    (1)       the
Redemption Date,

     

    (2)       the
Redemption Price,

     

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

     

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

     

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

     

    (6)       the
place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the
Redemption Price,

     

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

     

    (8)       the
CUSIP number, if any, printed on the Securities being redeemed; and

     

    (9)       that
no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number,
if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities.

     

    Notice of
redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be
given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name
and at the expense of the Company. In the case of redemptions by the Company of
Global Securities, the Company shall, at least 30 days prior to the Redemption
Date, notify the Depositary (with a copy to the Trustee) of such
redemption.

    SECTION
1105.  Deposit of Redemption Price.

     

    On or
prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with
a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate
and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to
pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an
Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be
redeemed on that date.

     

    SECTION
1106.  Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

     

    Notice of
redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed
shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price
therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall
default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such
Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for
redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the
Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the
Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated
Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders
of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at
the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to their
terms and the provisions of Section 307.

     

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

     

    SECTION
1107.  Securities Redeemed in Part.

     

    Any
security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of
Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due
endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney
duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service
charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of any authorized
denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to
and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so
surrendered; provided, however, that the Depositary need not surrender Global
Securities for a partial redemption and may be authorized to make a notation on
such Global Security of such partial redemption. In the case of a partial
redemption of the Global Securities, the Depositary, and in turn, the
participants in the Depositary, shall have the responsibility to select any
Securities to be redeemed by random lot.

    SECTION
1201.  Applicability of Article.

     

    The
provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the
retirement of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of such series.

     

    The
minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of
Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund
payment”, and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the
terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking
fund payment.” If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the
cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided
in Section 1202. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of
Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such
series.

     

    SECTION
1202.  Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with
Securities.

     

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

    SECTION
1203.  Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

     

    Not less
than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of
Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate
specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series
pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to
be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be
satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to
Section 1202, and the amount of any optional sinking fund payment to be added to
the next ensuing sinking fund payment, and will also deliver to the Trustee any
Securities to be so delivered. If such Officers’ Certificate shall specify an
optional amount to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund
payment, the Company shall thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein
specified. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the
Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund
payment date in the manner specified in Section 1103 and cause notice of the
redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company
in the manner provided in Section 1104. Such notice having been duly given, the
redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner
stated in Sections 1106 and 1107.

    REPAYMENT
AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS

     

    SECTION
1301.  Applicability of Article.

     

    Securities
of any series which are repayable at the option of the Holders thereof before
their Stated Maturity shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of the
Securities of such series. The repayment of any principal amount of Securities
pursuant to such option of the Holder to require repayment of Securities before
their Stated Maturity, for purposes of Section 309, shall not operate as a
payment, redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such
Securities unless and until the Company, at its option, shall deliver or
surrender the same to the Trustee with a directive that such Securities be
cancelled. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section,
in connection with any repayment of Securities, the Company may arrange for the
purchase of any Securities by an agreement with one or more investment bankers
or other purchasers to purchase such Securities by paying to the Holders of such
Securities on or before the close of business on the repayment date an amount
not less than the repayment price payable by the Company on repayment of such
Securities, and the obligation of the Company to pay the repayment price of such
Securities shall be satisfied and discharged to the extent such payment is so
paid by such purchasers to the respective Holders thereof.

    SUBORDINATION

     

    SECTION
1401.  Securities Subordinated to Senior Indebtedness.

     

     The
Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Securities by his acceptance
thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the indebtedness evidenced by the
Securities and the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and
interest on each and all of the Securities is hereby expressly subordinated, to
the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, in right of payment to the
prior payment in full of Senior Indebtedness.

     

    Anything
in this Indenture or in the Securities to the contrary notwithstanding, the
indebtedness evidenced by the Securities shall be subordinate and junior in
right of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to all
Senior Indebtedness. Senior Indebtedness shall continue to be Senior
Indebtedness and entitled to the benefits of these subordination provisions
irrespective of any amendment, modification or waiver of any term of Senior
Indebtedness or extension or renewal of Senior Indebtedness.

     

    (a)       (i)  In
the event the Company shall default in the payment of any Senior Indebtedness
when the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or on a date fixed
for prepayment or by declaration or otherwise, then, unless and until such
default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no direct
or indirect payment (in cash, property or securities or by set-off or otherwise)
shall be made or agreed to be made on account of the principal of, premium, if
any, or interest on the Securities, or as a sinking fund for the Securities, or
in respect of any redemption, retirement, purchase or other acquisition of any
of the Securities.

     

    (ii)       Upon
the happening of an event of default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness,
permitting the holders thereof to accelerate the maturity thereof (other than
under circumstances when the terms of subdivision (a)(i) are applicable), then,
unless and until such event of default shall have been cured or waived or shall
have ceased to exist, no direct or indirect payment (in cash, property or
securities or by set-off or otherwise) shall be made or agreed to be made on
account of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the Securities,
or as a sinking fund for the Securities, or in respect of any redemption,
retirement, purchase or other acquisition of any of the Securities, during any
period:

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        34

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (A)         of
90 days after written notice of such default shall have been given to the
Company by any holder of Senior Indebtedness; or

     

    (B)         in
which any judicial proceeding shall be pending in respect of such default and a
notice of acceleration of the maturity of such Senior Indebtedness shall have
been transmitted to the Company in respect of such default.

     

    (b)       In
the event of

     

    (i)     
  any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation,
reorganization, readjustment, composition or other similar proceeding relating
to the Company, its creditors or its property,

     

    (ii)       any
proceeding for the liquidation, dissolution or other winding-up of the Company,
voluntary or involuntary, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy
proceedings,

     

    (iii)      any
assignment by the Company for the benefit of creditors, or

     

    (iv)      any
other marshalling of the assets of the Company,

     

    all
Senior Indebtedness (including any interest accruing after the commencement of
such proceedings) shall first be paid in full before any payment or
distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to
any Holder of Securities on account of the Securities. Any payment or
distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than
securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of
reorganization or readjustment the payment of which is subordinate, at least to
the extent provided in this Article with respect to the Securities, to the
payment of all Senior Indebtedness at the time outstanding and to any securities
issued in respect thereof under any such plan of reorganization or
readjustment), which would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Article) be
payable or deliverable in respect of the Securities shall be paid or delivered
directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness in accordance with the priorities
then existing among such holders until all Senior Indebtedness (including any
interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any such proceedings) shall
have been paid in full.

     

    (c)       In
the event that any Security shall be declared due and payable as the result of
the occurrence of any one or more defaults in respect thereof, under
circumstances when the terms of subparagraph (b) are not applicable, no payment
shall be made in respect of any Securities unless and until all Senior
Indebtedness shall have been paid in full or such declaration and its
consequences shall have been rescinded and all such defaults shall have been
remedied or waived.

     

    (d)       If
any payment or distribution of any character or any security, whether in cash,
securities or other property (other than securities of the Company or any other
corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the payment
of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in the provisions of
this Article with respect to the Securities, to the payment of all Senior
Indebtedness at the time outstanding and to any securities issued in respect
thereof under any such plan or reorganization or readjustment), shall be
received by any Holder of Securities in contravention of any terms hereof and
before all the Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, such payment or
distribution or security shall be received in trust for the benefit of, and
shall be paid over or delivered and transferred to, the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness at the time outstanding, in accordance with the priorities then
existing among such holders for application to the payment of all Senior
Indebtedness remaining unpaid, or, if applicable, to any trustee in bankruptcy,
receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee, agent or other Person making
payment or distribution of assets of the Company, to the extent necessary to pay
all such Senior Indebtedness in full. In the event of the failure of any Holder
of Securities to endorse or assign any such payment, distribution or security,
each holder of Senior Indebtedness is hereby irrevocably authorized to endorse
or assign the same.

     

    (e)       Nothing
contained herein shall impair, as between the Company and the Holder of any
Securities, the obligation of the Company to pay to the Holder thereof the
principal thereof and interest thereon as and when the same shall become due and
payable in accordance with the terms of such Security, or prevent the Holder of
any Securities from exercising all rights, powers and remedies otherwise
permitted by applicable law or pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and the
Security, upon a default or Event of Default under this Indenture, all subject
to the rights of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness to receive cash,
securities or other property otherwise payable or deliverable to the Holders of
the Securities.

     

    (f)       Senior
Indebtedness shall not be deemed to have been paid in full unless the holders
thereof shall have received cash equal to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness
then outstanding. Upon the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the
Holders of Securities shall be subrogated to all rights of any holders of Senior
Indebtedness to receive any further payments or distributions applicable to the
Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the Securities shall have been
paid in full, and such payments or distributions received by the holders of the
Securities by reason of such subrogation, of cash, securities or other property
which otherwise would be paid or distributed to the holders of Senior
Indebtedness, shall, as between the Company and its creditors other than the
holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the one hand, and the Holders of Securities,
on the other hand, be deemed to be a payment by the Company on account of Senior
Indebtedness and not on account of Securities.

    The
Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any insolvency,
bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition
or other similar proceeding relating to the Company within the meaning of this
Section. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to
in this Article, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 601, and the
Holders of Securities shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate of the
trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors or other
liquidating agent making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee
or to the Holders of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the person
entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or
payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other
facts pertinent thereto or to this Article.

     

    In the
event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that further evidence is
required with respect to the right of any person as a holder of Senior
Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this
Section, the Trustee may request such person to furnish evidence to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness
held by such person, as to the extent to which such person is entitled to
participate in such payment or distribution, and as to other facts pertinent to
the rights of such person under this Section, and if such evidence is not
furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such person pending judicial
determination as to the right of such person to receive such
payment.

     

    SECTION
1402.  Effectuation of Subordination by Trustee.

     

    Each
Holder of Securities, by his acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the
Trustee in his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to
effectuate, as between the Holders of the Securities and the holders of Senior
Indebtedness, the subordination provided in this Article and appoints the
Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

     

    SECTION
1403.  Knowledge of Trustee.

     

    Nothing
contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture, shall (a) prevent the
Company from setting aside in trust or depositing with the Trustee or any Paying
Agent, at any time, except during the pendency of any of the proceedings or upon
the happening or continuance of any of the events referred to in Section 1401,
moneys for the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the
Securities, or (b) prevent the application by the Trustee or Paying Agent of any
moneys deposited with it hereunder by or on behalf of the Company to the payment
of or on account of the principal of, or the premium, if any, or interest on the
Securities, if the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, did not have
written notice of any event prohibiting such application by the close of
business on the Business Day immediately prior to the date of such
application.

     

    Notwithstanding
the provisions of this Article or any other provisions of this Indenture, the
Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any Senior
Indebtedness or of any default or event of default with respect to any Senior
Indebtedness or any fact or facts which would prohibit the making of any payment
of moneys to or by the Trustee, or the taking of any other action by the
Trustee, unless and until the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof
from the Company, any Holder of Securities, any paying or conversion agent of
the Company or the holder or representative of any class of Senior Indebtedness
who shall have been certified by the Company or otherwise established to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee to be such holder or representative or by
the trustee under any indenture pursuant to which Senior Indebtedness shall be
outstanding.

     

    SECTION
1404.  Trustee’s Relation to Senior Indebtedness.

     

    The
Trustee shall be entitled to all rights set forth in this Article with respect
to any Senior Indebtedness at the time held by it, to the same extent as any
other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in Section 612 or elsewhere in
this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.
Nothing in this Article shall subordinate to Senior Indebtedness the claims of,
or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 607.

     

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

     

    SECTION
1405.  Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness Not
Impaired.

     

    No right
of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce the
subordination herein shall at any time or in any way be prejudiced or impaired
by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any non-compliance
by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture,
regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be otherwise
charged with.
