RECITALS OF THE COMPANY




          The Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Indenture to provide for
the issuance from time to time of its debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness (herein
called the “Securities”), to be issued in one or more series as provided in this Indenture.



          All things necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement of the Company, in accordance
with its terms, have been done.



          NOW, THEREFORE, THIS INDENTURE WITNESSETH:



          For and in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the Securities by the Holders
thereof, it is mutually agreed, for the equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders of the
Securities or of series thereof, as follows:



ARTICLE ONE




DEFINITIONS AND OTHER PROVISIONS OF GENERAL APPLICATION




SECTION 101. Definitions.



          For all purposes of this Indenture, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the
context otherwise requires:




          (1) the terms defined in this Article have the meanings assigned to them in this
Article and include the plural as well as the singular;




          (2) all other terms used herein which are defined in the Trust Indenture Act, either
directly or by reference therein, have the meanings assigned to them therein;




          (3) all accounting terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to
them in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and, except as
otherwise herein expressly provided, the term “generally accepted accounting principles”
with respect to any computation required or permitted hereunder shall mean such accounting
principles as are generally accepted at the date of such computation;




          (4) unless the context otherwise requires, any reference to an Article or a Section
refers to an Article or a Section, as the case may be, of this Indenture; and



 









 






          (5) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder” and other words of similar import
refer to this Indenture as a whole and not to any particular Article, Section or other
subdivision.



          “Act”, when used with respect to any Holder, has the meaning specified in Section 104.



          “Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person directly or indirectly controlling
or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For the
purposes of this definition, “control” when used with respect to any specified Person means the
power to direct the management and policies of such Person, directly or indirectly, whether through
the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise; and the terms “controlling” and
“controlled” have meanings correlative to the foregoing.



          “Attributable Debt” means, as to any particular lease under which any Person is at the time
liable and at any date as of which the amount thereof is to be determined, the total net amount of
rent required to be paid by such Person under such lease during the remaining primary term thereof,
discounted from the respective due dates thereof to such date at a rate per annum equal to the
weighted average yield to maturity of the Securities calculated in accordance with generally
accepted financial practices. The net amount of rent required to be paid under any such lease for
any such period shall be the aggregate amount of the rent payable by the lessee with respect to
such period after excluding amounts required to be paid on account of maintenance and repairs,
insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates and similar charges. In the case of any lease which is
terminable by the lessee upon the payment of a penalty, such net amount shall also include the
amount of such penalty, but no rent shall be considered as required to be paid under such lease
subsequent to the first date upon which it may be so terminated.



          “Authenticating Agent” means any Person authorized by the Trustee pursuant to Section 614 to
act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of one or more series.



          “Board of Directors” means either the board of directors of the Company or any duly authorized
committee of that board.



          “Board Resolution” means a copy of a resolution certified by the Secretary or an Assistant
Secretary of the Company to have been duly adopted by the Board of Directors and to be in full
force and effect on the date of such certification, and delivered to the Trustee.



          “Business Day”, when used with respect to any Place of Payment, means each Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking institutions in that Place of
Payment are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close.



          “Capital Stock”, as applied to the stock of any corporation, means the capital stock of every
class whether now or hereafter authorized, regardless of whether such capital stock shall be
limited to a fixed sum or percentage with respect to the rights of the holders thereof to
participate in dividends and in the distribution of assets upon the voluntary or involuntary
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of such corporation.



2









 





          “Commission” means the Securities and Exchange Commission, from time to time constituted,
created under the Exchange Act, or, if at any time after the execution of this instrument such
Commission is not existing and performing the duties now assigned to it under the Trust Indenture
Act, then the body performing such duties at such time.



          “Company” means the Person named as the “Company” in the first paragraph of this instrument
until a successor Person shall have become such pursuant to the applicable provisions of this
Indenture, and thereafter “Company” shall mean such successor Person.



          “Company Request” or “Company Order” means a written request or order signed in the name of
the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its President or a Vice President, and by its Treasurer,
an Assistant Treasurer, its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, and delivered to the Trustee.



          “Consolidated Net Tangible Assets” means the aggregate amount of assets (less applicable

SECTION 104. Acts of Holders; Record Dates.



          Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action
provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders may be embodied in
and evidenced by one or more instruments of 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, if made in the manner
provided in this Section.



          The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be
proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a 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.



          The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register.

thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company
in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.



          The Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of
Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to give, make or take any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this
Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Securities of such series; provided, however,
that the Company may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not
apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction
referred to in the next paragraph. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph,



9









 







the Holders of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no other
Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders
after such record date; provided, however, that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless
taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of
Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be
construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record
date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set
shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in
this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the
requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action
is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its
own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the
applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities
of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106.



          The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of
Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of
Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 502, (iii) any request to
institute proceedings referred to in Section 507(2) or (iv) any direction referred to in Section
512, in each case with respect to Securities of such series. If any record date is set pursuant to
this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date, and no
other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether
or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, however, that no such action
shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders
of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date.
Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date
for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph
(whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be
cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective
any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the
relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to
this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the
proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing
and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106.



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



10









 





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



SECTION 105. Notices, Etc., to Trustee and Company.



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




          (1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company 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, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, 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

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 (if any), and not earlier than the earliest
date (if any), 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.
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.



SECTION 107. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.



          If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture
Act which is required under such Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the latter
provision shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of
the Trust Indenture Act which may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed
to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be.

          All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and
assigns, whether so expressed or not.



SECTION 110. Separability Clause.



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



SECTION 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 and their 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 by and construed in accordance with the
law of the State of New York.



SECTION 113. Legal Holidays.



          In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any
Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other
provision of this Indenture or of the Securities (other than a provision of any Security which
specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section)) payment of interest
or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may
be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect
as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity.

          The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its

Resolution as permitted by Section 201, that such form has been established in conformity
with the provisions of this Indenture;

Resolution as permitted by Section 301, that such terms have been established in conformity
with the provisions of this Indenture; and

the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of
Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable
in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer,
reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or
affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.



22









 




If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate
such Securities 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.




          Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 301 and of the preceding paragraph, if all
Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to
deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 301 or the Company Order
and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the
authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the
authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued.



          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 by manual signature, and such certificate
upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been
duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall
have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the
Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 309, for
all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and
delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.



SECTION 304. Temporary Securities.



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



          If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities
of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive
Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for
definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at
the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the
Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or
more definitive Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor
and aggregate principal amount. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in
all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such
series and tenor.

SECTION 305. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.



          The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register

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 and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed
“Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as
herein provided.



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



          At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of
the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount,
upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities
are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee 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 for exchange shall (if
so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar 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.



          If the Securities of any series (or any series and specified tenor) are to be redeemed in
part, the Company shall not be required (A) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any
Securities of that series (or of that series and specified tenor, as the case may be,) during a
period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of
redemption of any such Securities selected for redemption under Section 1103 and ending at the
close of business on the day of such mailing, or (B) to register the transfer of or



24









 







exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed
portion of any Security being redeemed in part.



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




          (1) Each Global Security authenticated under this Indenture shall be registered in the
name of the Depositary designated for such Global Security or a nominee thereof and
delivered to such Depositary or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such
Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all purposes of this Indenture.




          (2) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be
exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and no transfer of a Global
Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the
Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (A) such Depositary (i) has
notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such
Global Security or (ii) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange
Act, (B) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to
such Global Security or (C) there shall exist such circumstances, if any, in addition to or
in lieu of the foregoing as have been specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section
301.




          (3) Subject to clause (2) above, any exchange of a Global Security for other Securities
may be made in whole or in part, and all Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security
or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depositary for such Global
Security shall direct.




          (4) Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in
exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to
this Section, Section 304, 306, 906 or 1107 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and
delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is
registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a
nominee thereof.



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



          If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series and
of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.



          If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction
of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be
required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the
absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in



25









 







lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of
like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.



          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.



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



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




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



26









 







shall he not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the
proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of
the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record
Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed
payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given to each
Holder of Securities of such series in the manner set forth in Section 106, not less than 10
days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted
Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest
shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their
respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special
Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following
clause (2).




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



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



SECTION 308. Persons Deemed Owners.



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



SECTION 309. Cancellation.



          All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, conversion, 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 may deliver
to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities
previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Securities so
delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu
of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as



27









 







provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled
Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of as directed by a Company Order.



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.

          This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect (except as to any
surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided
for), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when




          (1) either




          (A) all Securities 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

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




                (i) have become due and payable,

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




and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has deposited or
caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust money in an
amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such
Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for
principal and any premium and interest to the date of such deposit (in the



28









 







case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated
Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be;




          (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the

Company to the Trustee under Section 607, the obligations of the Trustee to any Authenticating
Agent under Section 614 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 402 and
the last paragraph of Section 1003 shall survive.



SECTION 402. Application of Trust Money.



          Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money deposited with the
Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the
provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any
Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine,
to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and any premium and interest for whose payment
such money has been deposited with the Trustee.



ARTICLE FIVE




REMEDIES




SECTION 501. Events of Default.



          “Event of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any series, means any
one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be
voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or
order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any
administrative or governmental body):




          (1) default in the payment of any interest upon any Security of that series when it
becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days;




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




          (3) default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as due by the terms of

breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with or which has expressly been
included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of series of Securities other than that
series), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 days after there has
been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company
and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of that series a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring
it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder;




          (5) a default under any bond, debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness for
money borrowed in an aggregate principal amount exceeding $10,000,000 by the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary (including a default with respect to Securities of any series other
than that series) or under any mortgage, indenture or instrument (including this Indenture)
under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any
indebtedness for money borrowed in an aggregate principal amount exceeding $10,000,000 by
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary whether such indebtedness now exists or shall
hereafter be created, which default shall have resulted in such indebtedness becoming or
being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due
and payable, without such indebtedness having been discharged, or such acceleration having
been rescinded or annulled, within a period of 10 days after there shall have been given, by
registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the
Trustee by the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
that series a written notice specifying such default and requiring the Company to cause such
indebtedness to be discharged or cause such acceleration to be rescinded or annulled, as the
case may be, and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; provided,
however, that, subject to the provisions of Sections 601 and 602, the Trustee shall not be
deemed to have knowledge of such default unless either (A) a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee shall have actual knowledge of such default or (B) the Trustee shall have received
written notice thereof from the Company, from any Holder, from the holder of any such
indebtedness or from the trustee under any such mortgage, indenture or other instrument;




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



30









 






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




          (8) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series.



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 and 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 any Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the
principal amount of such Securities as may be specified by the terms thereof) of all 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
amount) shall become immediately due and payable.



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




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




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




          (B) the principal of and any premium on any Securities of that series which
have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and any 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 prescribed therefor in such Securities, and



31









 






          (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 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 any premium on any Security
at the Maturity thereof,


the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such
Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and any premium
and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable,
interest on any overdue principal and any premium and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates
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 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 any judicial proceeding relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the
Securities), its property or its creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by
intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the
Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such
proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized 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



32









 







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.



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



SECTION 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 any premium 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; and




     SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and any
premium and interest 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 any premium and interest,
respectively.



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) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing
Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series;



33









 






          (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 of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or
preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in
the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.




SECTION 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 any
premium and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturities
expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute
suit for the enforcement of any such payment, 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



34









 







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 Securities to exercise any right
or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a
waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by
this Article 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, however, that




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




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



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 any premium or interest 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 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.



          In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit
against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may



35

SECTION 609. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If any such Person

its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section and to the extent
permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be
deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition
so published. If at any time the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall cease
to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in
the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.



SECTION 610. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.



          No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to

jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such
series.



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



          If at any time:

to all Securities, or (B) 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,

          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

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 611. 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 611,
become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent
supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to
the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and
accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 611, 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.

to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the

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



          In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of
one or more (but not all) series, the Company, 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,

provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts
and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to
which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the



40









 







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 those series to which the appointment of such
successor Trustee relates.



          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 the first or second preceding paragraph, as the case may be.



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



SECTION 612. 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 613. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.



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



SECTION 614. Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities
of such series issued upon original issue and upon exchange, registration

of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 306, and Securities so
authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory
for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this
Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and
delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication
executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be
acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia,
authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of
not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority.
If such 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 at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee
and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by
giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such
a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating
Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may
appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give
notice of such appointment in the manner provided in Section 106 to all Holders of Securities of
the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve. Any successor Authenticating
Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers
and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an
Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under
the provisions of this Section.



          The Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable
compensation for its services under this Section, and the Trustee shall be entitled to be
reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 607.

Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of
authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form:

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 reduce the amount of the
principal of an Original Issue Discount Security or any other Security which would be due
and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section
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 adversely effect any right to convert or
exchange any Security as may be provided pursuant to Section 301 herein;




          (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;




          (3) modify any of the provisions of this Section, Section 513 or Section 1010, 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 1010, or the deletion of this proviso,
in accordance with the requirements of Sections 611 and 901(8); or




          (4) cause the Holders of Securities to be expressly subordinated to other indebtedness
of the Company.


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




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



SECTION 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



47









 







Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, 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. 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 under this Article, this Indenture shall be
modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this
Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated
and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.



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.



SECTION 906. Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures.



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



ARTICLE TEN




COVENANTS




SECTION 1001. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest.



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



SECTION 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency.



          The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or
agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where
Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, where
Securities of that series that are convertible or exchangeable may be surrendered for conversion or
exchange, as applicable, 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.
If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or



48









 







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



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



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



          The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture or 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 terms as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such
Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be
released from all further liability with respect to such money.



          Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in
trust for the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Security



49









 







of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest
has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the
Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as
an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of
the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company
as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying
Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to
be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each
Business Day and of general circulation, 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 be repaid to the Company.



SECTION 1004. Existence.



          Subject to Article Eight, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to
preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights (charter and statutory) and
franchises; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right or
franchise if the Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer
desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and that the loss thereof is not
disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.



SECTION 1005. Maintenance of Properties.



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



SECTION 1006. Payment of Taxes and Other Claims.



          The Company will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall
become delinquent, (1) all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the
Company or any Subsidiary or upon the income, profits or property of the Company or any Subsidiary,
and (2) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a
lien upon the property of the Company or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall
not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment,
charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings.



SECTION 1007. Restrictions on Secured Debt.



50









 





          The Company will not itself, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, incur, issue,
assume, or guarantee any loans, whether or not evidenced by negotiable instruments or securities,
or any notes, bonds, debentures or other similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed
(loans, and notes, bonds, debentures or other similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed
being hereinafter in this Section 1007 called “Debt”), secured after the date hereof by pledge of,
or mortgage or lien on, any Principal Property of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or any
shares of Capital Stock of or Debt of any Restricted Subsidiary (mortgages, pledges and liens being
hereinafter in this Section 1007 called “Mortgage” or “Mortgages”), without effectively providing
that the Securities (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other Debt of the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created which is not subordinated
to the Securities) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or, at the option of the Company,
prior to) such secured Debt, so long as such secured Debt shall be so secured, unless, after giving
effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all such secured Debt plus all Attributable Debt of the
Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries with respect to sale and lease back transactions to which
Section 1008 is applicable would not exceed 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets; provided,
however, that this Section 1007 shall not apply to, and there shall be excluded from secured Debt
in any computation under this Section 1007, Debt secured by:




          (1) Mortgages on property of, or on any shares of Capital Stock of or Debt of, any
corporation existing at the time such corporation becomes a Restricted Subsidiary;



          (2) Mortgages in favor of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary;





          (3) Mortgages in favor of any governmental body to secure progress, advance or other
payments pursuant to any contract or provision of any statute;




          (4) Mortgages on property, shares of Capital Stock or Debt existing at the time of
acquisition thereof (including acquisition through merger or consolidation) or to secure the
payment of all or any part of the purchase price thereof or construction thereon or to
secure any Debt incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 180 days after the later of the
acquisition of such property, shares of Capital Stock or Debt or the completion of
construction, for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof or
construction thereon;




          (5) Mortgages securing obligations issued by a State, territory or possession of the
United States, any political subdivision of any of the foregoing, or the District of
Columbia, or any instrumentality of any of the foregoing to finance the acquisition or
construction of property, and on which the interest is not, in the opinion of tax counsel of
recognized standing or in accordance with a ruling issued by the Internal Revenue Service,
includible in gross income of the holder by reason of Section 103(a) (1) of the Internal
Revenue Code (or any successor to such provision) as in effect at the time of the issuance
of such obligations; or




          (6) Any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or
replacements), as a whole or in part, of any Mortgage referred to in the



51









 







foregoing clauses (1) to (5), inclusive; provided, however, that such extension,
renewal or replacement Mortgage shall be limited to all or part of the same property, shares
of Capital Stock or Debt that secured the Mortgage extended, renewed or replaced (plus
improvements on such property).



SECTION 1008. Restrictions on Sales and Leasebacks.



          The Company will not itself, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to enter into any
transaction after the date hereof with any bank, insurance company or other lender or investor, or
any such transaction to which any such bank, company, lender or investor is a party, providing for
the leasing by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of any Principal Property which has been or
is to be sold or transferred by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to such bank, company,
lender or investor, or any person to whom funds have been or are to be advanced by such bank,
company, lender or investor on the security of such Principal Property (herein referred to as a
“sale and leaseback transaction”) unless, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all
Attributable Debt with respect to all such transactions plus all secured Debt to which Section 1007
is applicable would not exceed 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets. This covenant shall not
apply to, and there shall be excluded from Attributable Debt in any computation under this Section
1008 or Section 1007 Attributable Debt with respect to, any sale and leaseback transaction if:




          (1) the lease in such sale and lease back transaction is for a period, including
renewal rights, of not in excess of three years;




          (2) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, within 180 days after the sale or transfer
shall have been made by the Company or by a Restricted Subsidiary, applies an amount equal
to the greater of the net proceeds of the sale of the Principal Property leased pursuant to
such arrangement or the fair market value of the Principal Property so leased at the time of
entering into such arrangement (as determined in any manner approved by the Board of
Directors) to




          (A) the retirement of the Securities, other Funded Debt of the Company ranking
on a parity with or senior to the Securities, or Funded Debt of a Restricted
Subsidiary, provided, however, that the amount to be applied to the retirement of
such Funded Debt of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary shall be reduced by (x)
the principal amount of any Securities (or other notes or debentures constituting
such Funded Debt) delivered within such 180-day period to the Trustee or other
applicable trustee for retirement and cancellation and (y) the principal amount of
such Funded Debt, other than items referred to in the preceding clause (x),
voluntarily retired by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary within 180 days after
such sale, and provided further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no retirement
referred to in this clause (a) may be effected by any payment at maturity or
pursuant to any mandatory sinking fund payment or any mandatory prepayment
provision; or




          (B) the purchase of other property which will constitute a Principal Property
having a fair market value, in the opinion of the Board of



52









 







Directors, at least equal to the fair market value of the Principal Property
leased in such sale and lease back transaction;




          (3) such sale and leaseback transaction is entered into prior to, at the time of, or
within 180 days after the later of the acquisition of the Principal Property or the
completion of construction thereon;




          (4) the lease in such sale and leaseback transaction secures or relates to obligations
issued by a State, territory or possession of the United States, or any political
subdivision of any of the foregoing, the District of Columbia, or any instrumentality of any
of the foregoing to finance the acquisition or construction of property, and on which the
interest is not, in the opinion of tax counsel of recognized standing or in accordance with
a ruling issued by the Internal Revenue Service, includible in gross income of the holder by
reason of Section 103 (a) (1) of the Internal Revenue Code (or any successor to such
provision) as in effect at the time of the issuance of such obligations; or




          (5) such sale and leaseback transaction is entered into between the Company and a
Restricted Subsidiary or between Restricted Subsidiaries.



SECTION 1009. Statement by Officers as to Default.



          The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of
the Company ending after the date hereof, an Officers’ Certificate, stating whether or not to the
best knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the performance and observance
of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period of
grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and if the Company shall be in default,
specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge.



SECTION 1010. Waiver of Certain Covenants.



          Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of such series,
the Company may, with respect to the Securities of any series, omit in any particular instance to
comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in any covenant provided pursuant to Section
301(18), 901(2) or 901(7) for the benefit of the Holders of such series or in any of Sections 1004
to 1008, inclusive, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least 66 2/3 % in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either
waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or
condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to
the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of
the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall
remain in full force and effect.

ARTICLE ELEVEN




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 such Securities) 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
or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities. In case of any
redemption at the election of the Company of less than all the Securities of any series (including
any such redemption affecting only a single Security), the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to
the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the
Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date, of the principal amount of Securities of such
series to be redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor of the Securities to be redeemed. In the
case of any redemption of Securities 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.



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



          If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless all of the Securities
of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed or unless such redemption affects only a
single Security), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days
prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, 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 a portion of the principal amount of any
Security of such series; provided, however, that the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of
any Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum
authorized denomination) for such Security. If less than all the Securities of such series and of
a specified tenor are to be redeemed (unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the
particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the
Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series and specified tenor
not previously called for redemption in accordance with the preceding sentence.



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



          The provisions of the two preceding paragraphs shall not apply with respect to any redemption
affecting only a single Security, whether such Security is to be redeemed in whole or in part. In
the case of any such redemption in part, the unredeemed portion of the



54









 







principal amount of the Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be
less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security.



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



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




          (4) 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,




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




          (6) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case.



          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 and shall be irrevocable.



SECTION 1105. Deposit of Redemption Price.



          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.



55









 





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, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, installments of interest whose
Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such
Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on
the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307.



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



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 and of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as
requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed
portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.



ARTICLE TWELVE




SINKING FUNDS




SECTION 1201. Applicability of Article.



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



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



SECTION 1202. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.



56









 





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



SECTION 1203. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.



          Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any Securities, the Company
will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing
sinking fund payment for such Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, the portion
thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which
is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities pursuant to Section 1202 and will also
deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days prior to each such
sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking
fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 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.

SECTION 1301. Company’s Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.



          The Company may elect, at its option at any time, to have Section 1302 or Section 1303 applied
to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, designated pursuant to Section
301 as being defeasible pursuant to such Section 1302 or 1303, in accordance with any applicable
requirements provided pursuant to Section 301 and upon compliance with the conditions set forth

SECTION 1302. Defeasance and Discharge.



          Upon the Company’s exercise of its option, if any, to have this Section applied to any

been discharged from its obligations with respect to such Securities as provided in this Section on
and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304 are satisfied (hereinafter called
“Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have
paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities and



57









 







to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture insofar
as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute
proper instruments acknowledging the same), subject to the following which shall survive until
otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (1) the rights of Holders of such Securities to
receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 1304 and as more fully set forth in such
Section, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities
when payments are due, (2) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections
304, 305, 306, 1002 and 1003, (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee
hereunder and (4) this Article. Subject to compliance with this Article, the Company may exercise
its option, if any, to have this Section applied to any Securities notwithstanding the prior
exercise of its option, if any, to have Section 1303 applied to such Securities.



SECTION 1303. Covenant Defeasance.



          Upon the Company’s exercise of its option, if any, to have this Section applied to any
Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, (1) the Company shall be released from
its obligations under Section 801(3), Sections 1005 through 1009, inclusive, and any covenants
provided pursuant to Section 301(18), 901(2) or 901(7) for the benefit of the Holders of such
Securities and (2) the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 501(4) (with respect to any of
Section 801(3), Sections 1005 through 1008, inclusive, and any such covenants provided pursuant to
Section 301(18), 901(2) or 901(7)), 501(5) and 501(8) shall be deemed not to be or result in an
Event of Default, in each case with respect to such Securities as provided in this Section on and
after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant
Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to such
Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term,
condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section (to the extent so specified in the
case of Section 501(4)), whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein
to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision herein
or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be
unaffected thereby.



SECTION 1304. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.



          The following shall be the conditions to the application of Section 1302 or Section 1303 to
any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be:




          (1) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the
Trustee (or another trustee which satisfies the requirements contemplated by Section 609 and
agrees to comply with the provisions of this Article applicable to it) as trust funds in
trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security
for, and dedicated solely to, the benefits of the Holders of such Securities, (A) money in
an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of
principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not
later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a
combination thereof, in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm
of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to
the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be



58









 







applied by the Trustee (or any such other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the
principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities on the respective Stated
Maturities, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Securities. As used
herein, “U.S. Government Obligation” means (x) any security which is (i) a direct obligation
of the United States of America for the payment of which the full faith and credit of the
United States of America is pledged or (ii) an obligation of a Person controlled or
supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the
payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the
United States of America, which, in either case (i) or (ii), is not callable or redeemable
at the option of the issuer thereof, and (y) any depositary receipt issued by a bank (as
defined in Section 3(a) (2) of the Securities Act) as custodian with respect to any U.S.
Government Obligation which is specified in clause (x) above and held by such bank for the
account of the holder of such depositary receipt, or with respect to any specific payment of
principal of or interest on any U. S. Government Obligation which is so specified and held;
provided, however, that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make
any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any
amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the
specific payment of principal or interest evidenced by such depositary receipt.




          (2) In the event of an election to have Section 1302 apply to any Securities or any
series of Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been
published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of this
instrument, there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case
(A) or (B) to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the
Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes
as a result of the deposit, Defeasance and discharge to be effected with respect to such
Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner
and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit, Defeasance and discharge were
not to occur.




          (3) In the event of an election to have Section 1303 apply to any Securities or any
series of Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain
or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and Covenant Defeasance
to be effected with respect to such Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on
the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such
deposit and Covenant Defeasance were not to occur.




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



59









 






          (5) No event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event
of Default with respect to such Securities or any other Securities shall have occurred and
be continuing at the time of such deposit or, with regard to any such event specified in
Sections 501(6) and (7), at any time on or prior to the 90th day after the date of such
deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until after
such 90th day)




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




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




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




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



SECTION 1305. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Miscellaneous
Provisions.



          Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and U.S. Government
Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other qualifying trustee
(solely for purposes of this Section and Section 1306, the Trustee and any such other trustee are
referred to collectively as the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1304 in respect of any Securities
shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such
Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any such Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders
of such Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and any
premium and interest, but money so held in trust need not be segregated from other funds except to
the extent required by law.



          The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed
on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1304 or the
principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge
which by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities.



          Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to
the Company from time to time upon Company Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by
it as provided in Section 1304 with respect to any Securities which, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount



60









 







thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance, as the case may be, with respect to such Securities.



SECTION 1306. Reinstatement.



          If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with this
Article with respect to any Securities by reason of any order or judgment of any court or
governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the
obligations under this Indenture and such Securities from which the Company has been discharged or
released pursuant to Section 1302 or 1303 shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had
occurred pursuant to this Article with respect to such Securities, until such time as the Trustee
or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all money held in trust pursuant to Section 1305 with respect
to such Securities in accordance with this Article; provided, however, that if the Company makes
any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on any such Security following such
reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights, if any, of the
Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money so held in trust.
