obligor upon the Securities or any Affiliate of the Company or such other obligor.

all or a portion of the same debt as that evidenced by such particular Security; and, for the

a lost, destroyed, mutilated, or stolen Security shall be deemed to evidence the same debt as the
lost, destroyed, mutilated, or stolen Security.

to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and



     (d) a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such individual, such condition or
covenant has been complied with.



     Section 1.03. Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee. In any case where several matters are
required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary
that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that

     Section 1.04. Acts of Securityholders. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver, or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by
Securityholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially
similar tenor signed by such Securityholders in person or by an 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 (if expressly required by the applicable
terms of this Indenture) to the Company. If any Securities are denominated in coin or currency
other than that of the United States, then for the purposes of determining whether the Holders of
the requisite principal amount of Securities have taken any action as herein described, the
principal amount of such Securities shall be deemed to be that amount of United States dollars that
could be obtained for such principal amount on the basis of the spot rate of exchange into United
States dollars for the currency in which such Securities are denominated (as evidenced to the
Trustee by a certificate provided by a financial institution, selected by the Company, that
maintains an active trade in the currency in question, acting as conversion agent) as of the date
the taking of such action by the Holders of such requisite principal amount is evidenced to the
Trustee as provided in the immediately preceding sentence. Such instrument or instruments (and the
action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the
Securityholders 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 6.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner
provided in this Section.



     (b) 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 to such execution or by the certificate of any 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 an officer of a corporation or a member of a partnership, on behalf of such corporation or
partnership, 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.



10









 





     (c) The ownership of Securities shall for all purposes be determined by reference to the
Security Register, as such register shall exist as of the applicable date.



     (d) If the Company shall solicit from the Holders any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, the Company may, at its option, by Board
Resolution, fix in advance a Record Date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, but the Company
shall have no obligation to do so. If such Record Date is fixed, such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action may be given before or after such
Record Date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such Record Date shall be
deemed to be Holders for the purpose of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of
Securities Outstanding have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, and for that purpose the
Securities Outstanding shall be computed as of such Record Date; provided that no such
authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such Record Date shall be deemed effective
unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six
months after such Record Date.



     (e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by
the Holder of any Security shall bind each subsequent Holder of such Security, and each Holder of
any Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu
thereof, with respect to anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in
reliance upon such action, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.



     Section 1.05. Notices, etc., to Trustee and Company. Any request, order, authorization,
direction, consent, waiver, or other action to be taken by the Trustee, the Company, or the
Securityholders hereunder (including any Authentication Order), and any notice to be given to the
Trustee or the Company with respect to any action taken or to be taken by the Trustee, the Company,
or the Securityholders hereunder, shall be sufficient if made in writing and



     (a) (if to be furnished or delivered to or filed with the Trustee by the Company or any
Securityholder) delivered to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate
Finance, or



     (b) (if to be furnished or delivered to the Company by the Trustee or any Securityholder, and
except as otherwise provided in Section 5.01(d) and, in the case of a request for repayment, except
as specified in the Security carrying the right to repayment) mailed to the Company, first-class
postage prepaid, at its principal office (as specified in the first paragraph of this instrument),
Attention: Treasurer, or at any other address hereafter furnished in writing by the Company to the
Trustee.



11









 





     Section 1.06. Notice To Securityholders; Waiver. Where this Indenture or any Security
provides for notice to Securityholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given
(unless otherwise expressly provided herein or in such Security) if in writing and mailed,
first-class postage prepaid, to each Securityholder affected by such event, at his or her address
as it appears in the Security Register as of the applicable Record Date, not later than the latest
date or earlier than the earliest date prescribed by this Indenture or such Security for the giving
of such notice. In any case where notice to Securityholders is given by mail, neither the failure
to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Securityholder shall
affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Securityholders. Where this Indenture
or any Security 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 Securityholders 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 as a result of a strike, work
stoppage or otherwise, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to any Securityholder
when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture or the
applicable Security, then any method of notification as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee and
the Company shall be deemed to be sufficient for the giving of such notice.



     Section 1.07. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies
or conflicts with another provision hereof which is required to be included in this Indenture by
any of the provisions of the TIA, such required provision shall control.



     Section 1.08. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings
herein and the Table of Contents hereof are for convenience only and shall not affect the
construction of any provision of this Indenture.



     Section 1.09. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the
Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.



     Section 1.10. 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 1.11. Benefits Of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in any Securities, express
or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, their successors hereunder,
the Authenticating Agent, the Security Registrar, any Paying Agent, and the Holders of Securities
(or such of them as



12









 







may be affected thereby), any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under
this Indenture.



     Section 1.12. Governing Law. This Indenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York.



     Section 1.13. Counterparts. This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall together
constitute but one and the same instrument.



     Section 1.14. Judgment Currency. The Company agrees, to the fullest extent that it may
effectively do so under applicable law, that (a) if for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any
court with respect to the Securities of any series it is necessary to convert the sum due in
respect of the principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, payable with respect to such
Securities into a currency in which a judgment can be rendered (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate
of exchange from the currency in which payments under such Securities is payable (the “Required
Currency”) into the Judgment Currency shall be the highest bid quotation (assuming European-style
quotation — i.e., Required Currency per Judgment Currency) received by the Company from three
recognized foreign exchange dealers in the City of New York for the purchase of the aggregate
amount of the judgment (as denominated in the Judgment Currency) on the New York Business Day
preceding the date on which a final unappealable judgment is rendered, for settlement on such
payment date, and at which the applicable dealer timely commits to execute a contract, and (b) the
Company’s obligations under this Indenture to make payments in the Required Currency (i) shall not
be discharged or satisfied by any tender, or by any recovery pursuant to any judgment (whether or
not entered in accordance with the preceding clause (a)), in any currency other than the Required
Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in the actual receipt by
the judgment creditor of the full amount of the Required Currency expressed to be payable in
respect of such payments, (ii) shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional cause of action
for the purpose of recovering in the Required Currency the amount, if any, by which such actual
receipt shall fall short of the full amount of the Required Currency so expressed to be payable,
and (iii) shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other sum due under this
Indenture.



     Section 1.15. Legal Holidays.



     In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date or Maturity of
any Security shall not be a New York Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding
any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities) 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, Redemption Date,



13









 







Repayment Date or at Maturity, provided that no interest shall accrue for the period from and after
such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date or Maturity, as the case may be.



ARTICLE 2

     Section 2.01. Forms Generally. The Securities of each series shall have such appropriate
insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this
Indenture and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or

exchange, or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers executing such
Securities, as evidenced by their execution of the Securities. Any portion of the text of any
Security may be set forth on the reverse thereof, with an appropriate reference thereto on the face
of the Security.



     The definitive Securities, if any, shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or produced by

of such Board Resolution, together with a true and correct copy of the form of Security which has
been approved thereby, or, if a Board Resolution authorizes a specific officer or officers to
approve a form of Security, together with a certificate of such officer or officers approving the
form of Security attached thereto, provided, however, that with respect to all Securities issued
pursuant to the same Board Resolution, the required copy of such Board Resolution, together with
the appropriate attachment, need be delivered only once. Any form of Security approved by or
pursuant to a Board Resolution must be acceptable as to form to the Trustee, such acceptance to be
evidenced by the Trustee’s authentication of Securities in that form or by a certificate signed by
a Responsible Officer of the Trustee and delivered to the Company.



     Section 2.03. Securities in Global Form. If Securities of a series are issuable in whole or

represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and may

to time be reduced to reflect exchanges or increased to reflect the issuance of



14









 







additional Securities. Any endorsement of a Security in global form to reflect the amount (or
any increase or decrease in the amount) of Outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made
in such manner and by such Person or Persons as shall be specified therein or in the Authentication
Order delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof.

     (22) the exchange of Securities of such series, at the option of the Holders thereof, for

     If all of the Securities issuable by or pursuant to any Board Resolution are not to be issued
at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel
required by Section 3.03 hereof at the time of issuance of each such Security, but such Officers’
Certificate and Opinion of Counsel shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the
first such Security.



     If any series of Securities shall be established by action taken pursuant to any Board
Resolution, the execution by the officer or officers authorized by such Board Resolution of an
Authentication Order (as defined in Section 3.03 below) with respect to the first Security of such
series to be issued, and the delivery of such Authentication Order to the Trustee at or before the
time of issuance of the first Security of such series, shall constitute a sufficient record of such
action. Except as otherwise permitted by Section 3.03, if all of the Securities of any such series
are not to be issued at one time, the Company shall deliver an Authentication Order with respect to
each subsequent issuance of Securities of



18









 







such series, but such Authentication Orders may be executed by any authorized officer or
officers of the Company, whether or not such officer or officers would have been authorized to

such denominations and currency as shall be provided in the provisions of this Indenture or by or
pursuant to the Board Resolution or supplemental indenture creating such series. In the absence of
any such provisions with respect to the Securities of any series, the Securities of that series
shall be issuable only in fully registered form in denominations of U.S. $1,000 and any integral
multiple thereof.

Officer, Senior Vice President and any Vice President of the Company under its corporate seal
reproduced thereon and attested by its Secretary or any one of its Assistant Secretaries. The
signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. The seal of the
Company may be in the form of a facsimile thereof and may be impressed, affixed, imprinted, or
otherwise reproduced on the Securities. Typographical and other minor errors or defects in any such
reproduction of the seal or any such signature shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
any Security that has been duly authenticated and delivered by the Trustee.



     Unless otherwise provided in the form of Security for any series, all Securities shall be
dated the date of their authentication.



     Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the
proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company,



19









 







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



     At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the
Company may deliver Securities to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for
authentication and delivery (such Order an “Authentication Order”) with respect to such Securities,
and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of such Authentication Order, in accordance with procedures
acceptable to the Trustee set forth in the Authentication Order, and subject to the provisions
hereof, authenticate and deliver such Securities to such recipients as may be specified from time
to time pursuant to such Authentication Order. The material terms of such Securities shall be
determinable by reference to such Authentication Order and procedures. If provided for in such
procedures, such Authentication Order may authorize authentication and delivery of such Securities
pursuant to oral instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agent, which instructions
shall be promptly confirmed in writing. In authenticating such Securities and accepting the
additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall
be entitled to receive, and (subject to the provisions of Section 6.01 hereof) shall be fully
protected in relying upon:



     (1) an executed supplemental indenture, if any;



     (2) an Officers’ Certificate, certifying as to the authorized form or forms and terms of such
Securities; and



     (3) an Opinion of Counsel, stating that:




     (a) the form or forms and terms of such Securities have been established by and in
conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; provided that if all such Securities are
not to be issued at the same time, such Opinion of Counsel may state that such terms will
be established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture, subject to any
conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel; and




     (b) such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by
the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of
Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable
in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium,
reorganization, and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity;


provided, however, that if all Securities issuable by or pursuant to a Board Resolution or
supplemental indenture are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to
deliver the Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel


20









 






otherwise required pursuant to this paragraph at or prior to the time of authentication of each
such Security if such documents are delivered at or prior to the time of authentication upon
original issuance of the first such Security to be issued. After the original issuance of the first
such Security to be issued, any separate request by the Company that the Trustee authenticate such
Securities for original issuance will be deemed to be a certification by the Company that it is in
compliance with all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the
authentication and delivery of such Securities.




     The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue thereof will
adversely affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties, or immunities under the Securities and this
Indenture.



     If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 3.01 that Securities of a series may be
issued in whole or in part in global form, then the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
(in accordance with this Section 3.03 and the Authentication Order with respect to such series)
authenticate and deliver, one or more Securities in global form that (i) shall represent and shall
be denominated in an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such series to be represented by such one or more Securities in global form, (ii)
shall be registered, in the name of the Depositary for such Security or Securities in global form,
or in the name of a nominee of such Depositary, (iii) shall be delivered to such Depositary or
pursuant to such Depositary’s instruction, and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially as follows:
“Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in certificated form, this
Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary,
or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary, or by the
Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor
Depositary.” Each Depositary designated pursuant to Section 3.01 for a Security in global form
must, at the time of its designation and at all times while it serves as Depositary, be a clearing
agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and any other applicable statute or
regulation.



     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 of an authorized
signatory, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.



     Section 3.04. Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any
series, the Company may execute, and, upon receipt of the documents required by Sections 2.02, 3.01
and 3.03 hereof, together with an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
temporary Securities of such series that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed, or
otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination,



21









 







substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued in
registered form, without coupons, 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. In the case of Securities of any series for which a temporary
Security may be issued in global form, such temporary global security shall represent all of the
Outstanding Securities of such series and tenor.



     Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form, which shall be exchanged in
accordance with the provisions thereof, if temporary Securities of any series are issued, the
Company will cause definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay.
After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities of such series shall be
exchangeable, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or at such other office or agency as
may be maintained by the Company in a Place of Payment pursuant to Section 10.02 hereof, for
definitive Securities of such series having identical terms and provisions, upon surrender of the
temporary Securities of such series, at the Company’s own expense and without charge to the Holder;
and 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 a like
principal amount of definitive Securities of such series in authorized denominations containing
identical terms and provisions. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with
respect to a temporary Security in global form, until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of
such series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as
definitive Securities of such series.



     Section 3.05. Registration, Transfer and Exchange. With respect to the Securities of each
series, the Trustee shall keep a register (herein sometimes referred to as the “Security Register”)
which shall provide for the registration of Securities of such series, and for transfers of
Securities of such series, in accordance with information to be provided to the Trustee by the
Company, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe. Such register shall
be in written form or in any other form capable of being converted into written form within a
reasonable time. At all reasonable times the information contained in such register or registers
shall be available for inspection at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at such other
office or agency to be maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 10.02 hereof.



     Upon due presentation for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at any other office or agency maintained by the Company
with respect to that series pursuant to Section 10.02 hereof, 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 such series of any authorized denominations, of like aggregate
principal amount, tenor, terms and Scheduled Maturity Date.



22









 





     Any other provision of this Section 3.05 notwithstanding, unless and until it is exchanged in
whole or in part for the individual Securities represented thereby, in definitive form, a Security
in global form representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred
except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary, or by a
nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary, or by such
Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such
successor Depositary.



     At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of
such series of any authorized denominations, of like aggregate principal amount, tenor, terms and
Scheduled Maturity Date, 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 Securityholder making the exchange is
entitled to receive.



     If at any time the Depositary for the Securities of a series represented by one or more
Securities in global form notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as
Depositary for the Securities of such series, or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities
of such series shall no longer be eligible under Section 3.03 hereof, the Company, by Company
Order, shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the Securities of such series. If a
successor Depositary for the Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company within 90
days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company’s
election pursuant to Section 3.01 that such Securities be represented by one or more Securities in
global form shall no longer be effective with respect to the Securities of such series and the
Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order for the
authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver
Securities of such series in definitive form, in authorized denominations, in an aggregate
principal amount, and of like terms and tenor, equal to the principal amount of the Security or
Securities in global form representing such series, in exchange for such Security or Securities in
global form.



     The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion and subject to the procedures of the
Depositary determine that individual Securities of any series issued in global form shall no longer
be represented by such Security or Securities in global form. In such event the Company will
execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order for the authentication and
delivery of definitive Securities of such series and of the same terms and tenor, will authenticate
and deliver Securities of such series in definitive form, in authorized denominations, and in
aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Security or Securities in global
form representing such series in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form.



23









 





     If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 3.01 with respect to a series of Securities
issued in global form, the Depositary for such series of Securities may surrender a Security in
global form for such series of Securities in exchange in whole or in part for Securities of such
series in definitive form and of like terms and tenor on such terms as are acceptable to the
Company and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee upon receipt of
an Authentication Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such
series, shall authenticate and deliver, without service charge:



     (a) to each Person specified by such Depositary, a new definitive Security or Securities of
the same series and of the same tenor and terms, in authorized denominations, in aggregate
principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person’s beneficial interest in the Security in
global form; and



     (b) to such Depositary, a new Security in global form in a denomination equal to the
difference, if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered Security in global form and the
aggregate principal amount of the definitive Securities delivered to Holders pursuant to clause (a)
above.



     Upon the exchange of a Security in global form for Securities in definitive form, such
Security in global form shall be canceled by the Trustee or an agent of the Company or the Trustee.
Securities issued in definitive form in exchange for a Security in global form pursuant to this
Section 3.05 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the
Depositary for such Security in global form, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect
participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee or an agent of the Company or the Trustee in
writing. The Trustee or such agent shall deliver such Securities to or as directed by the Persons
in whose names such Securities are so registered or to the Depositary.



     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 transfer or exchange.



     Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, redemption or
payment 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.



     Unless otherwise provided in the Security to be transferred or exchanged, no service charge
shall be imposed for any registration of transfer or exchange of



24









 







Securities, but the Company may (unless otherwise provided in such Security) require payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.04, 3.06,
9.06 and 11.07 hereof not involving any transfer.



     The Company shall not be required to (i) issue, register the transfer of, or exchange any
Security of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day
of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of such series selected for redemption under
Section 11.03 and ending at the close of business on the date of such mailing, or (ii) register the
transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except in the
case of any Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed.



     Section 3.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. If (i) any mutilated
Security is surrendered to the Trustee, or the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and (ii) there is delivered to the
Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them
harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company may in its discretion execute and upon request of
the Company the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor, terms, series,
Scheduled Maturity Date, and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.



     In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to
become due and payable, 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 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 the same 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.



25









 





     Section 3.07. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. Interest on any Security which
is payable and is punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date shall, if so
provided in such Security, 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 applicable Record Date,
notwithstanding any transfer or exchange of such Security subsequent to such Record Date and prior
to such Interest Payment Date. (unless such Interest Payment Date is also the date of Maturity of
such Security).



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



     (a) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose
names any such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close
of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be
fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of
Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Security and the date of the proposed payment,
and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the
aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed
payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to
such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special
Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 nor less
than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt
by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company
of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice
of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be
mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Holder of each such Security at his address as it
appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice
of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been
mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such
Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on
such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b).



     (b) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest 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



26









 







the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed
practicable by the Trustee.



     Interest on Securities of any series that bear interest may be paid by mailing a check to the
address of the Person entitled thereto at such address as shall appear in the Securities Register
for such series or by such other means as may be specified in the form of such Security.



     Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07 and the provisions of Section 3.05
hereof, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in
exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and
unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.



     Section 3.08. 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 any Security is registered on the applicable Record Date(s) as the owner of
such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, if any
(subject to Sections 3.05 and 3.07 hereof), and any additional amounts payable with respect to 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.



     None of the Company, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, the Security
Registrar, or any Co-Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of
the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Security
in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial
ownership interests and each of them may act or refrain from acting without liability on any
information relating to such records provided by the Depositary.



     Section 3.09. Cancellation. All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration
of transfer, exchange, or credit against a sinking or analogous fund shall, if surrendered to any
Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and, if not already canceled, shall be
promptly canceled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any
Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in
any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee.
Acquisition of such Securities by the Company shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of
the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation. No Security shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any
Securities canceled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture.
The Trustee shall dispose of all canceled Securities in accordance with its customary procedures
and deliver a certificate of such disposition to the Company.



27









 





     Section 3.10. Computation of Interest. Unless otherwise provided as contemplated in Section
3.01, interest on the Securities shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months.



ARTICLE 4

Satisfaction and Discharge




     Section 4.01. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture shall cease to be of
further effect with respect to any series of Securities (except as to any surviving rights of
conversion or transfer or exchange of Securities of such series expressly provided for herein or in
the form of Security for such series), and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the
Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture as to such series, when



     (a) either




     (i) all Securities of that series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than
(A) Securities of such series which have been destroyed, lost, or stolen and which have
been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.06, and (B) Securities of such series for
whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in
trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust,
as provided in Section 4.07) have been delivered to the Trustee canceled or for
cancellation; or




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




     (A) have become due and payable, or




     (B) will, in accordance with their Scheduled Maturity Date, become due and
payable within one year, or




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


and, in any of the cases described in subparagraphs (A), (B), or(C) above, the Company has
irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee, as trust funds in trust for the
purpose, (x) an amount in money sufficient, (y) U.S. Government Obligations or Equivalent
Government Securities which through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in
accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any
payment, money sufficient, or (z) a combination of (x) and (y) sufficient, in the opinion with


28









 






respect to (y) and (z) of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed
in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge the entire
indebtedness on such Securities with respect to principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any,
to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable), or to
the Scheduled Maturity Date or Redemption Date, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such
U.S. Government Obligations or Equivalent Government Securities are callable or redeemable at the
option of the issuer thereof, the amount of such money, U.S. Government Obligations, and Equivalent
Government Securities deposited with the Trustee must be sufficient to pay and discharge the entire
indebtedness referred to above if such issuer elects to exercise such call or redemption provisions
at any time prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date or Redemption Date, as the case may be. The
Company, but not the Trustee, shall be responsible for monitoring any such call or redemption
provision; and




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



     (c) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series have
been complied with.



     Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to any series of
Securities, the obligations of the Company under paragraph (a) of this Section 4.01 and its
obligations to the Trustee with respect to that series under Section 6.07 shall survive, and the
obligations of the Trustee under Sections 4.05, 4.07 and 10.03 shall survive.



     Section 4.02. Discharge and Defeasance.



     The provisions of this Section and Section 4.04 (insofar as relating to this Section) shall
apply to the Securities of each series unless specifically otherwise provided in a Board Resolution
or indenture supplemental hereto provided pursuant to Section 3.01. In addition to discharge of
this Indenture pursuant to Section 4.01, in the case of any series of Securities with respect to
which the exact amount described in subparagraph (a) of Section 4.04 can be determined at the time
of making the deposit referred to in such subparagraph (a), the Company shall be deemed to have
paid and discharged the entire indebtedness on all the Securities of such a series as provided in
this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 4.04 are satisfied, and the
provisions of this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series shall no longer be in
effect (except as to (i) rights of registration of transfer and exchange of Securities of such
series, (ii) substitution of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities of such series, (iii)
rights of Holders of Securities of such series to receive, solely from the trust fund described in
subparagraph (a) of Section 4.04, payments of principal thereof, premium, if any, and interest, if
any, thereon upon the original



29









 







stated due dates or upon the Redemption Dates therefor (but not upon acceleration), and
remaining rights of the Holders of Securities of such series to receive mandatory sinking fund
payments, if any, (iv) the rights, obligations, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder, (v)
this Section 4.02, Section 4.07, Section 10.02 and Section 10.03 and (vi) the rights of the Holders
of Securities of such series as beneficiaries hereof with respect to the property so deposited with
the Trustee payable to all or any of them) (hereinafter called “Defeasance”), and the Trustee at
the cost and expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same.



     Section 4.03. Covenant Defeasance.



     The provisions of this Section and Section 4.04 (insofar as relating to this Section) shall
apply to the Securities of each series unless specifically otherwise provided in a Board Resolution
or indenture supplemental hereto provided pursuant to Section 3.01. In the case of any series of
Securities with respect to which the exact amount described in subparagraph (a) of Section 4.04 can
be determined at the time of making the deposit referred to in such subparagraph (a), (i) the
Company shall be released from its obligations under any covenants specified in or pursuant to
Section 3.01 as being subject to Covenant Defeasance with respect to such series (except as to (a)
rights of registration of transfer and exchange of Securities of such series and rights under
Section 4.07, Section 10.02 and Section 10.03, (b) substitution of mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Securities of such series, (c) rights of Holders of Securities of such series to receive,
from the Company pursuant to Section 10.01, payments of principal thereof and interest, if any,
thereon upon the original stated due dates or upon the Redemption Dates therefor (but not upon
acceleration), and remaining rights of the Holders of Securities of such series to receive
mandatory sinking fund payments, if any, (d) the rights, obligations, duties and immunities of the
Trustee hereunder and (e) the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series as beneficiaries
hereof with respect to the property so deposited with the Trustee payable to all or any of them),
and (ii) the occurrence of any event specified in Section 5.01(d) (with respect to any of the
covenants specified in or pursuant to Section 3.01 as being subject to Covenant Defeasance with
respect to such series) shall be deemed not to be or result in a default or an Event of Default, in
each case with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series as provided in this Section on
and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 4.04 are satisfied (hereinafter called
“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Trustee at the cost and expense of the Company, shall execute
proper instruments acknowledging the same. For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that
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 covenant (to the extent so specified in the case of Section
5.01(d)), whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such
covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any
other document, but the



30









 







remainder of this Indenture and the Securities of such series shall be unaffected thereby.



     Section 4.04. Conditions To Defeasance Or Covenant Defeasance.



     The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 4.02 or Section 4.03 to
the Outstanding Securities:



     (a) with reference to Section 4.02 or Section 4.03, the Company has irrevocably deposited or
caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee as funds in trust, specifically pledged as
security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of Securities of such series (i)
money in an amount, or (ii) U.S. Government Obligations or Equivalent Government Securities which
through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms
will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or
(iii) a combination of (i) and (ii), sufficient, in the opinion (with respect to (ii) and (iii)) of
a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification
thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge each installment of principal (including
mandatory sinking fund payments) of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Outstanding Securities
of such series on the dates such installments of interest, premium or principal are due, including
upon redemption; provided, however, that if such U.S. Government Obligations and Equivalent
Government Securities are callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, the amount of
such money, U.S. Government Obligations, and/or Equivalent Government Securities deposited with the
Trustee must be sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness referred to above if the
issuer of any such U.S. Government Obligations or Equivalent Government Securities elects to
exercise such call or redemption provisions at any time prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date or
Redemption Date of such Securities, as the case may be. The Company, but not the Trustee, shall be
responsible for monitoring any such call or redemption provision.



     (b) in the case of Defeasance under Section 4.02, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel based on the fact that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been
published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (y) since the date hereof, there has been a
change in the applicable United States federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that,
and such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of the Securities of such series will not
recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit,
defeasance and discharge and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount and in the
same manner and at the same times, as would have been the case if such deposit, Defeasance and
discharge had not occurred;



     (c) in the case of Covenant Defeasance under Section 4.03, the Company has delivered to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, and such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders
of the Securities of such series




31









 




will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of
such deposit and Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount
and in the same manner and at the same times, as would have been the case if such deposit and
Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;




     (d) no Event of Default or event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become an
Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series shall have occurred and be
continuing on the date of such deposit, after giving effect to such deposit or, in the case of a
Defeasance under Section 4.02, no Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(e) or Section 5.01(f)
shall have occurred, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such
deposit or, if longer, ending on the day following the expiration of the longest preference period
applicable to the Company in respect of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall
not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period);



     (e) such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting
interest within the meaning of the TIA, assuming all Securities of a series were in default within
the meaning of the TIA;



     (f) such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or
constitute a default under, any agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by
which it is bound;



     (g) such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in the trust arising from such
deposit constituting an investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, unless the trust is registered under such Act or exempt from registration;



     (h) If the Securities of such series are to be redeemed prior to their Stated Maturity Date
(other than from mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments), notice of such redemption
shall have been duly given pursuant to this Indenture or provision therefor satisfactory to the
Trustee shall have been made; and



     (i) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to such Defeasance
or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.



     Section 4.05 . Application of Trust Money; Excess Funds. All money and U.S. Government
Obligations or Equivalent Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the
Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 or Section 4.04 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it,
in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and of the series of Securities in respect of
which it was deposited, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent), as the Trustee may



32









 




determine, to the
Persons entitled thereto, of the principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, for whose
payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from
other funds except to the extent required by law.




     The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on
or assessed against the cash or U.S. Government Obligations or Equivalent Government Securities
deposited pursuant to Section 4.01 or Section 4.04 hereof 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 the Outstanding Securities.



     Anything in this Article 4 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. Governmental Obligations or
Equivalent Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 4.01 or Section 4.04 which, in
the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee, (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 4.01 or Section 4.04,
as applicable), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to
effect an equivalent satisfaction and discharge, Covenant Defeasance or Defeasance of the
applicable series.



     Section 4.06 . Paying Agent to Repay Moneys Held. Upon the satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture, all moneys then held by any Paying Agent of the Securities (other than the Trustee)
shall, upon demand of the Company, be repaid to it or paid to the Trustee, and thereupon such
Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such moneys.



     Section 4.07 . Return of Unclaimed Amounts. Any amounts deposited with or paid to the
Trustee or any Paying Agent or then held by the Company, in trust for payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Securities and not applied but remaining unclaimed by
the Holders of such Securities for two years after the date upon which the principal of, premium,
if any, or interest, if any, on such Securities, as the case may be, shall have become due and
payable, shall be repaid to the Company by the Trustee on Company Request or (if then held by the
Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of any of such Securities shall
thereafter look only to the Company for any payment which such Holder may be entitled to collect
(until such time as such unclaimed amounts shall escheat, if at all, to the State of New York) 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Trustee or Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense
of the Company cause to be published once a week for two successive weeks (in each case on any day
of
the week) in a newspaper printed in the English language and customarily



33









 




published at least
once a day at least five days in each calendar week and of general circulation in the Borough of
Manhattan, in the City and State of New York, a notice that said amounts have not been so applied
and that after a date named therein any unclaimed balance of said amounts then remaining will be
promptly returned to the Company.




ARTICLE 5

Remedies




     Section 5.01 . Events of Default. "Event of Default”, wherever used herein, means with
respect to any series of Securities any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such
Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of
law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of
any administrative or governmental body), unless such event is either inapplicable to a particular
series or it is specifically deleted or modified in the manner contemplated by Section 3.01:



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



     (b) default in the payment of the principal amount of (or premium, if any, on) any Security of
such series as and when the same shall become due, either at Maturity, upon redemption, by
declaration, or otherwise; or



     (c) default in the payment of any sinking or purchase fund or analogous obligation when the
same becomes due by the terms of the Securities of such series and continuance of such default for
a period of 30 days; or



     (d) default in the performance or breach of any covenant or warranty of the Company in this
Indenture in respect of the Securities of such series (other than a covenant or warranty in respect
of the Securities of such series a default in the performance of which or the breach of which is
elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with), and continuance of such default or breach for a
period of 90 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by
the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 51% in the principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, a written notice specifying such default or
breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”
hereunder; or



     (e) the entry of an order for relief against the Company under the Federal Bankruptcy Act by a
court having jurisdiction in the premises or a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction in
the premises adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent under any other applicable Federal or
State law, or the entry
of a decree or order approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization,



34









 




arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company under the Federal Bankruptcy
Code or any other applicable Federal or State law, or appointing a 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 unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or




     (f) the consent by the Company to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings
against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief
under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable Federal or State law, or the consent by
it to the filing of any such petition or to the appointment of a 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



     (g) any other Event of Default provided for with respect to the Securities of such series in
accordance with Section 3.01.



     A default under any indebtedness of the Company other than the Securities will not constitute
an Event of Default under this Indenture, and a default under one series of Securities will not
constitute a default under any other series of Securities.



     Section 5.02 . Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission, and Annulment. If any Event of Default
described in Section 5.01 above (other than Event of Default described in Section 5.01(e) and
Section 5.01(f)) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to any series, then and in each
and every such case, unless the principal of all the Securities of such series shall have already
become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 51% in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding hereunder, by notice in writing
to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), may declare the principal amount (or, if
the Securities of such series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal
amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of all the Securities of such series and
any and all accrued interest thereon to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such
declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable, any provision of this
Indenture or the Securities of such series to the contrary notwithstanding. If an Event of Default
specified in Section 5.01(e) or Section 5.01(f) occurs, the principal amount of the Securities of
such series and any and all accrued interest thereon shall immediately become and be due and
payable without any declaration or other act on the party of the Trustee or any Holder. No
declaration of acceleration by the Trustee with respect to any series of Securities shall
constitute a declaration of acceleration by the Trustee with respect to any
other series of Securities, and no declaration of acceleration by the Holders of at



35









 




least 51%
in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall constitute a
declaration of acceleration or other action by any of the Holders of any other series of
Securities, in each case whether or not the Event of Default on which such declaration is based
shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to more than one series of Securities, and
whether or not any Holders of the Securities of any such affected series shall also be Holders of
Securities of any other such affected series.




     At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made with respect to the
Securities of any series 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 not less than 51%
in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, by written notice to
the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if all
Events of Default with respect to such series of Securities, other than the nonpayment of the
principal of the Securities of such series which have become due solely by such acceleration, have
been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13, if such cure or waiver does not conflict with any
judgment or decree set forth in Section 5.01(e) and Section 5.01(f) and if all sums paid or
advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel have been paid.



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



     Section 5.03 . Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. The Company
covenants that if:



     (a) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security of any
series when such interest becomes due and payable, or



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



     (c) default is made in the payment of any sinking or purchase fund or analogous obligation
when the same becomes due by the terms of the Securities of any series, and



     (d) any such default continues for any period of grace provided in relation to such default
pursuant to Section 5.01,


then, with respect to the Securities of such series, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee,
pay to it, for the benefit of the Holder of any such Security (or the Holders of any such series in
the case of clause (c) above), the whole amount then due and payable on any such Security (or on
the Securities of any such series in the case of clause (c) above) for principal (and premium, if
any) and
interest, if any, with interest (to the extent that payment of such interest shall be






36









 







legally
enforceable) upon the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and upon overdue installments of
interest, if any, at such rate or rates as may be prescribed therefor by the terms of any such
Security (or of Securities of any such series in the case of clause (c) above); 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 and all other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07.




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



     If an Event of Default with respect to any series of Securities 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 5.04 . Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any
receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment,
composition, or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the
Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee
(irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made
any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and
empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise,



     (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (or, with respect to Original
Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such
Securities), premium, if any, and interest, if any, owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities,
and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary and advisable in order to have the
claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements, and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and all other amounts due the
Trustee under Section 6.07) and of the Securityholders allowed in such judicial proceedings, and



37









 





     (b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such
claims and to distribute the same; and any receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator
(or other similar official) in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Securityholder 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 Securityholders, to pay to the Trustee any
amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee and its agent and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07 hereof.



     Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to
or accept or adopt on behalf of any Securityholder 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 Securityholder in any such proceeding.



     Section 5.05 . Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. All rights of
action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities of any series may be prosecuted and
enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities of such series 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 and its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of
the Holders of the Securities, of the series in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.



     Section 5.06 . Application of Money Collected. Any money collected by the Trustee with
respect to a series of Securities 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, premium, if any, or interest, if any, upon presentation of the Securities of such
series and the notation thereon of the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof,
if fully paid:



     First: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07 hereof.



     Second: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Securities of that series
for principal, premium, if any, interest, if any, and additional amounts, if any, in respect of
which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or
priority of any kind.



     Section 5.07 . 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



38









 





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



     (b) the Holders of not less than 51% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such
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;



     (c) 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;



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



     (e) 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 such series; it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Securities of such
series 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 Holders of Securities of
such series, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other such Holders
or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the
equal and proportionate benefit of all the Holders of all Securities of such series.



     Section 5.08 . Unconditional Right of Securityholders 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, premium,
if any, and (subject to Section 3.07) interest, if any, (and additional amounts, if any) on such
Security on or after the respective payment dates expressed in such Security (or, in the case of
redemption or repayment, on the Redemption Date or Repayment Date, as the case may be) and to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective date, and such
right shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.



     Section 5.09 . Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Securityholder has
instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding
has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, then and in every such case the Company, the
Trustee and the Securityholders shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored
severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and
remedies of the Trustee and the Securityholders shall continue as though no such proceeding had
been instituted.



39









 





     Section 5.10 . Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Trustee or to the Securityholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or
remedy, and every right or remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in
addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise,
shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.



     Section 5.11 . Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any
Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall
impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an
acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to
the Securityholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by
the Trustee or by the Securityholders, as the case may be.



     Section 5.12 . Control by Securityholders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place
of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or
power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that



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



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



     Section 5.13 . 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 not theretofore cured:



     (a) in the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any Security of such
series, or in the payment of any sinking or purchase fund or analogous obligation with respect to
the Securities of such series, or



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



40









 





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



     Section 5.14 . Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder
of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its
discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or
in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any
party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court
may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any
party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or
defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any
suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Securityholder or group of
Securityholders holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of any series to which the suit relates, or to any suit instituted by any Securityholder
for the enforcement of the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any
Security on or after the respective payment dates expressed in such Security (or, in the case of
redemption or repayment, on or after the Redemption Date or Repayment Date).



     Section 5.15 . Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that
it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner
whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law (other than any
bankruptcy law) wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the
covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully
do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will
not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will
suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.



ARTICLE 6

The Trustee




     Section 6.01 . Certain Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee. (a) Except during the
continuance of an Event of Default with respect to any series of Securities,




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



41









 






     (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may, with respect to
Securities of such series, conclusively rely upon certificates or opinions furnished to
the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any
such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to
be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to
determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.



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



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




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




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




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




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



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



42









 





     Section 6.02 . Notice of Defaults. Within 90 days after the occurrence of any default
hereunder with respect to Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all
Securityholders of such series, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register,
notice of such default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such default shall have been cured or
waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal,
premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any Security of such series or in the payment of any
sinking or purchase fund installment or analogous obligation with respect to Securities of such
series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of
directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of
the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the
Securityholders of such series and; provided, further, that, in the case of any default of the
character specified in Section 5.01(d) with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to
Securityholders of such series shall be given until at least 60 days after the occurrence thereof.
For the purpose of this Section, the term “default”, with respect to Securities of any series,
means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of
Default with respect to Securities of such series.



     Section 6.03 . Certain Rights of Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.01

Section 5.01(e) and Section 5.01(f) above, such expenses (including the reasonable charges and
expenses of its counsel) and compensation for such services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or
other similar law.



     The Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon all property and funds held or
collected by it as such for any amount owing to it or any predecessor Trustee pursuant to this

     Section 6.09 . Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There shall at all times be a

and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any State or Territory
thereof or of the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust
powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, and subject to supervision
or examination by Federal or State authority and having its principal office and place of business
in the City of New York, if there be such a corporation having its principal office and place of
business in said City and willing to act as Trustee on customary and usual terms. If such
corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this
Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any
time the Trustee with respect to any series of Securities 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 6.10 . Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. (a) No resignation or
removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall
become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 6.11.



     (b) The Trustee may resign with respect to any one or more series of Securities at any time by
giving at least 60 days’ written notice thereof to the Company. If an instrument of acceptance by a
successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of
such notice of



46









 




resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee.




     (c) The Trustee may be removed with respect to any series of Securities at any time by Act of
the Holders of 66 2/3% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, delivered
to the Trustee and to the Company.



     (d) If at any time:




     (i) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 6.08 above with respect to any
series of Securities after written request therefor by the Company or by any
Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of that series for at least 6
months, or




     (ii) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.09 above with respect to
any series of Securities and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the
Company or by any such Securityholder, or




     (iii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting with respect to any series of
Securities, or




     (iv) the Trustee shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the
Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or
control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation,
conservation or liquidation, then, in any such case (A) the Company may remove the
Trustee, with respect to the series or, in the case of clause (iv), with respect to all
series, or (B) subject to Section 5.14, any Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder
of a Security of such series for at least 6 months may, on behalf of himself and all
others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of
the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the series or, in
the case of clause (iv), with respect to all series.



     (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting with respect to any
series of Securities, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee with respect to any
series of Securities for any cause, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee for that
series of Securities. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapacity, or the
occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to such series of Securities shall be
appointed by Act of the Holders of 66 2/3% 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, become the successor Trustee with respect
to such series and supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company with respect to such
series. If no successor Trustee with respect to such series shall have been so appointed by the
Company or the Securityholders of such series and accepted



47









 




appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Securityholder who has been bona fide
Holder of a Security of that series for at least 6 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 such series.




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



     Section 6.11 . Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. Every successor Trustee appointed
hereunder with respect to all series of Securities shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the
Company and to the predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the
resignation or removal of the predecessor 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 predecessor Trustee with respect to any such series; but, on
request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such predecessor Trustee shall, upon payment of
its reasonable charges, if any, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor
Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the predecessor Trustee, and shall duly assign,
transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such predecessor
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 predecessor Trustee and each successor Trustee
with respect to the Securities of any applicable series shall execute and deliver an indenture
supplemental hereto which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or
desirable to transfer and to conform to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights,
powers, trusts and duties of the predecessor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series
as to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates and (2) if the predecessor Trustee is
not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed
necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the predecessor
Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series as to which the predecessor Trustee is not
being succeeded shall continue to be vested in the predecessor 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



48









 




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; and, 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 with respect to any series of Securities shall accept its appointment
unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible with
respect to that series under this Article.



     Section 6.12 . Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any corporation
into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any
corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a
party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of
the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that 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 Trustee 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 6.13 . Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. If and when the Trustee
shall be or shall become a creditor, of the Company (or of 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 against any such other obligor, as the case may be).



     Section 6.14 . Appointment of Authenticating Agent. At any time when any of the Securities
remain Outstanding the Trustee, with the approval of the Company, may appoint an Authenticating
Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act
on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon exchange,
registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.06, 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.



49









 





     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 an Authenticating Agent, having a
combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and, if other than the Company itself,
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, if other than the Company, 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, if other
than the Company, 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, with the approval of the Company, may
appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall mail
written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of
Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names
and addresses appear in the Security Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance
of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No
successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this
Section.



     The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable
compensation for its services under this Section.



50









 





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



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

     (a) semiannually, not more than 15 days after January 1 and July 1 in each year, in such form
as the Trustee may reasonably require, a list of the names and addresses of the Holders of
Securities of each series as of such date, and



     (b) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after the
receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not
more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished, provided that if the Trustee shall be
the Security Registrar for such series, such list shall not be required to be furnished.



     Section 7.02 . Preservation of Information; Communications to Securityholders. (a) The
Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses
of Holders of Securities contained in the most recent list furnished to the Trustee as provided in
Section 7.01 and the names and addresses of Holders of Securities received by the Trustee in its
capacity as Security Registrar. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in
Section 7.01 upon receipt of a new list so furnished.



     (b) If three or more Holders of Securities of any series (hereinafter referred to as
“applicants”) apply in writing to the Trustee, and furnish to the Trustee reasonable proof that
each such applicant has owned a Security of such series for a period of at least six months
preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire to
communicate with other



51









 




Holders of Securities of such series or with the Holders of all Securities with respect to
their rights under this Indenture or under such Securities and is accompanied by a copy of the form
of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall,
within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, at its election, either:





     (i) afford such applicants access to the information preserved at the time by the
Trustee in accordance with Section 7.02(a), or




     (ii) inform such applicants as to the approximate number of Holders of Securities of
such series or all Securities, as the case may be, whose names and addresses appear in the

as to the approximate cost of mailing to such Securityholders the form of proxy or other
communication, if any, specified in such application.



     If the Trustee shall elect not to afford such applicants access to such information, the
Trustee shall, upon the written request of such applicants, mail to each Holder of a Security of
such series or to all Securityholders, as the case may be, whose names and addresses appear in the
information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.02(a), a copy of the
form of proxy or other communication which is specified in such request, with reasonable promptness
after a tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment, or provision for the
payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless within five days after such tender, the
Trustee shall mail to such applicants and file with the Commission, together with a copy of the
material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such
mailing would be contrary to the best interests of the Holders of Securities of such series or all
Securityholders, as the case may be, or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written
statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If the Commission, after opportunity for a
hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so filed, shall enter an order
refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or
more of such objections, the Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that
all the objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee
shall mail copies of such material to all Securityholders of such series or all Securityholders, as
the case may be, with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such
tender; otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants
respecting their application.



     (c) Every Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company and
the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be held accountable by reason of the
disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of Securities in
accordance with Section 7.02(b), regardless of the source from which such



52









 




information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of
mailing any material pursuant to a request made under Section 7.02(b).




     Section 7.03 . Reports by Trustee. (a) The Trustee shall transmit to Holders such reports
concerning the Trustee and its actions under this Indenture as may be required pursuant to the
Trust Indenture Act at the times and in the manner provided pursuant thereto. If required by

the Trustee with each stock exchange upon which any Securities are listed, with the Commission and
with the Company as required by Trust Indenture Act Section 313(d). The Company will promptly
notify the Trustee when any Securities are listed on any stock exchange.

     (a) file with the Trustee, within 15 days after the Company is required to file the same with
the Commission, copies of the annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports

rules and regulations prescribe) which the Company may be required to file with the Commission
pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or, if the Company
is not required to file information, documents or reports pursuant to either of said Sections, then
it will file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations
prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such of the supplementary and periodic information,

Consolidation, Merger, Conveyance or Transfer




     Section 8.01 . Company May Consolidate, etc., Only on Certain Terms. The Company shall not
consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or convey or transfer all or substantially all
of its properties and assets to any Person, unless;



     (a) either the Company shall be the continuing corporation, or the corporation formed by such
consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or
transfer all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company shall be a
corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America or any State or
the District of Columbia, and shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed
and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the due and punctual payment of
the principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on all the Securities and the performance of
every covenant of this Indenture on the part of the Company to be performed or observed;



     (b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of Default, or event which,
after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have happened and
be continuing; and



     (c) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that
any such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer and any assumption permitted or required by
this Article complies with the provisions of this Article.



     Section 8.02 . Successor Corporation Substituted. Upon any consolidation or merger, or any
conveyance or transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company in
accordance with Section 8.01, the successor corporation formed by such consolidation or into which
the Company is merged or the Person to which such conveyance or transfer is made shall succeed to,
and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture
with the same effect as if such successor corporation had been named as the Company herein and the
Company shall thereupon be released from all obligations hereunder and under the Securities. Such
successor corporation thereupon may cause to be signed and may issue any or all of the Securities
issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the
Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor corporation, instead of the Company, and subject to
all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall
authenticate and shall deliver any Securities which previously shall have been signed and delivered
by the officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and any Securities which such
successor corporation thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that
purpose. All of the Securities so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit



54









 




under this Indenture as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the
terms of this Indenture as though all of such Securities had been issued at the date of the
execution hereof.




     In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance such changes in phraseology and
form (but not in substance) may be made in the Securities thereafter to be issued as may be
appropriate.

for the protection of the Holders of the Securities of any or all series as the Company and the

Securities, stating that such covenants are expressly being included or such surrenders are
expressly being made solely for the benefit of one or more specified series); or



     (c) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein which may be

hereof; or



     (i) to add any additional Events of Default in respect of the Securities of any or all series

of one or more specified series); or



     (j) to comply with the requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of
this Indenture under the TIA; or



     (k) to make any change in any series of Securities that does not adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of the Holders of such Securities.



     Section 9.02 . Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Securityholders. With the consent of
the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of each
series affected by such supplemental indenture or indentures, by Act of said Holders delivered to

payable thereon on any date, or change any Place of Payment where, or the coin or currency in
which, any Security or any payment of premium or interest thereon is payable, or



56









 





     (c) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment described in clauses
(a) or (b) on or after the same shall become due and payable, whether at Maturity or, in the case
of redemption or repayment, on or after the Redemption Date or the Repayment Date, as the case may

Indenture that has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series
of Securities, or that 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 Securityholders under this Section 9.02 to approve
the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act
shall approve the substance thereof.



     Section 9.03 . Execution of Supplemental Indentures. Upon request of the Company and upon

affects the Trustee’s own rights, powers, trusts, duties or immunities under this Indenture or
otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter
into such supplemental indenture. In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created
by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.01) 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.




     Section 9.04 . Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental

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

Securities.



ARTICLE 10

Covenants




     Section 10.01 . Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. With respect to each series of
Securities, the Company will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal, premium, if
any, and interest, if any, on such Securities in accordance with their terms and this Indenture,
and will duly comply with all the other terms, agreements and conditions contained in the Indenture
for the benefit of the Securities of such series.



     Section 10.02 . Maintenance of Office or Agency. So long as any of the Securities remain
outstanding, the Company will maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment where
Securities may be presented or surrendered for



58









 




payment, where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and
where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this Indenture
may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and of
any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to
maintain such office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office
of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee its agent to receive all such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.




     Section 10.03 . Money or Security Payments to Be Held in Trust. If the Company shall at any
time act as its own Paying Agent for any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date
of the principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any of the Securities of such series,
segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such series a sum
sufficient to pay such principal, premium, or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be
paid to such Holders of such Securities or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and will
promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.



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



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



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



     (b) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the
Securities of such series) in the making of any such payment of principal, premium, if any, or
interest, if any, on the Securities of such series; and



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



59









 





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



     Section 10.04 . Certificate to Trustee. The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120
days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company (beginning in 2007), an Officers’
Certificate, one of whose signatories shall be the Company’s principal executive, accounting or
financial officer, stating that in the course of the performance by the signers of their duties as
officers of the Company they would normally have knowledge of any default by the Company in the
performance of any of its covenants, conditions or agreements contained herein (without regard to
any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder), stating whether or not they have
knowledge of any such default and, if so, specifying each such default of which the signers have
knowledge and the nature thereof.



     Section 10.05 . Corporate Existence. Subject to Article 8 the Company will do or cause to be
done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence.



     Section 10.06 . Limitation on Secured Debt.



With respect to any series of Securities, other than Subordinated Securities:




     Unless otherwise provided in such series of Securities, so long as any of such Securities
shall be Outstanding, neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary will incur, suffer to exist
or guarantee any indebtedness for borrowed money (“Debt”), secured by a mortgage, pledge, or lien
(a “Mortgage”) on any Principal Property or on any shares of stock of (or other interests in) any
Restricted Subsidiary unless the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary secures or causes such
Restricted Subsidiary to secure the Securities of such series (other than Subordinated Securities)
and any other Debt of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, at the option of the Company or
such Restricted Subsidiary, not subordinate to the Securities, equally and ratably with (or 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 Debt so secured does not exceed 15% of Consolidated Net
Tangible Assets. This restriction will not, however, apply to Debt secured by:



     (a) Mortgages existing prior to the original issuance of such Securities;



60









 





     (b) Mortgages on property of, or on shares of stock of (or other interests in) or Debt of, any
corporation existing at the time such corporation becomes a Restricted Subsidiary;



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



     (d) Mortgages in favor of, or required by contracts with, any governmental bodies;



     (e) Mortgages on property, shares of stock (or other interests) 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 or improvement thereon or
to secure any Debt incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 365 days after the later of the
acquisition, the completion of construction, or the commencement of full operation of such property
or within 365 days after the acquisition of such shares or Debt for the purpose of financing all or
any part of the purchase price thereof or construction thereon; and



     (f) any extension, renewal or refunding referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) to (e),
inclusive.



     The transfer of a Principal Property to an Unrestricted Subsidiary or the change in
designation from Restricted Subsidiary to Unrestricted Subsidiary which owns a Principal Property
shall not be restricted.



     Section 10.07 . Waiver of Certain Covenants. The Company may omit in respect of any series
of Securities, in any particular instance, to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in
Section 10.06, if before or after the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority
in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of such series shall, by Act of such
Securityholders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with
such covenant or condition, provided that no waiver by the Holders of the Securities of such series
shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and,
until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the
Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect.



ARTICLE 11

Redemption of Securities




     Section 11.01 . Applicability of Article. The Company may reserve the right to redeem and
pay before the Scheduled Maturity Date all or any part of the Securities of any series, either by
optional redemption, sinking or purchase fund or analogous obligation or otherwise, by provision
therefor in the form of Security for such series established and approved pursuant to Section 2.02
and 2.03 or as



61









 




otherwise provided in Section 3.01, and on such terms as are specified in such form or in the
indenture supplemental hereto with respect to Securities of such series as provided in Section
3.01. Redemption of Securities of any series shall be made in accordance with the terms of such
Securities and, to the extent that this Article does not conflict with such terms, the succeeding
Sections of this Article.




     Section 11.02 . Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. In case of any redemption at the
election of the Company, 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 and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed. In
the case of any redemption of Securities (a) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such
redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, or (b) pursuant
to an election of the Company which is subject to a condition specified 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 or condition.



     Section 11.03 . Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed. If fewer than all the
Securities of any series are to be redeemed, 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, which may include provision for the selection for redemption of portions
of the principal of Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized
denomination for Securities of that series. Unless otherwise provided in the terms of a particular
series of Securities, the portions of the principal of Securities so selected for partial
redemption shall be equal to the minimum authorized denomination of the Securities of such series,
or an integral multiple thereof, and the principal amount which remains outstanding shall not be
less than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of such series.



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



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



     Section 11.04 . Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class
mail, postage prepaid, mailed not fewer than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date,
to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his or her address appearing in the Security
Register on the applicable Record Date.



62









 





     All notices of redemption shall state:



     (1) the Redemption Date;



     (2) the Redemption Price, or if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof;



     (3) if fewer than all Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the
identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the respective principal amounts) of the
Securities to be redeemed, from the Holder to whom the notice is given and that on and after the
date fixed for redemption, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities of the
same series in the aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be
issued in accordance with Section 11.07;



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



     (5) the place where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price,
which shall be the office or agency maintained by the Company in the Place of Payment pursuant to
Section 10.02 hereof; and



     (6) that the redemption is on account of a sinking or purchase fund, or other analogous
obligation, if that be 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.



     Section 11.05 . Deposit of Redemption Price. On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company
shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own
Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money
sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.



     Section 11.06 . 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) such Securities shall cease to bear interest.
Upon surrender of such Securities for redemption in accordance with the notice, such Securities
shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price. Any installment of interest due and payable
on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities registered as
such on the relevant Record Date according to the terms and the provisions of Section 3.07 above;
unless, with respect to an Interest Payment Date that falls on a Redemption



63









 




Date, such Securities provide that interest due on such date is to be paid to the Person to
whom principal is payable.




     If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for
redemption, the principal shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate
borne by the Security, or as otherwise provided in such Security.



     Section 11.07 . Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security that is to be redeemed only in
part shall be surrendered at the office or agency maintained by the Company in the Place of Payment
pursuant to Section 10.02 hereof with respect to that series (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 and at the expense of the Company, a new Security or
Securities of the same series, tenor, terms and Scheduled Maturity Date, of any authorized
denomination as requested by such Holders in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange
for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.



     Section 11.08 . Provisions with Respect to any Sinking Funds. Unless the form or terms of
any series of Securities shall provide otherwise, in lieu of making all or any part of any
mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to such series of Securities in cash, the Company may
at its option (a) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities of such series theretofore
acquired by the Company, or (b) receive credit for any Securities of such series (not previously so
credited) acquired or redeemed by the Company (other than through operation of a mandatory sinking
fund) and theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, and if it does so then (i)
Securities so delivered or credited shall be credited at the applicable sinking fund Redemption
Price with respect to Securities of such series, and (ii) on or before the 60th day next preceding
each sinking fund Redemption Date with respect to such series of Securities, the Company will
deliver to the Trustee (A) an Officers’ Certificate specifying the portions of such sinking fund
payment to be satisfied by payment of cash and by the delivery or credit of Securities of such
series acquired or redeemed by the Company, and (B) such Securities, to the extent not previously
surrendered. Such Officers’ Certificate shall also state the basis for any such credit and that the
Securities for which the Company elects to receive credit have not been previously so credited and
were not acquired by the Company through operation of the mandatory sinking fund, if any, provided
with respect to such Securities and shall also state that no Event of Default with respect to
Securities of such series has occurred and is continuing. All Securities so delivered to the
Trustee shall be canceled by the Trustee and no Securities shall be authenticated in lieu thereof.



64









 





     If the sinking fund payment or payments (mandatory or optional) with respect to any series of
Securities made in cash plus any unused balance of any preceding sinking fund payments with respect
to Securities of such series made in cash shall exceed $50,000 (or a lesser sum if the Company
shall so request), unless otherwise provided by the terms of such series of Securities, that cash
shall be applied by the Trustee on the sinking fund Redemption Date with respect to Securities of
such series next following the date of such payment to the redemption of Securities of such series
at the applicable sinking fund Redemption Price with respect to Securities of such series, together
with accrued interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption, with the effect provided in
Section 11.06. The Trustee shall select, in the manner provided in Section 11.03, for redemption on
such sinking fund Redemption Date a sufficient principal amount of Securities of such series to
utilize that cash and shall thereupon cause notice of redemption of the Securities of such series
for the sinking fund to be given in the manner provided in Section 11.04 (and with the effect
provided in Section 11.06) for the redemption of Securities in part at the option of the Company.
Any sinking fund moneys not so applied or allocated by the Trustee to the redemption of Securities
of such series shall be added to the next cash sinking fund payment with respect to Securities of
such series received by the Trustee and, together with such payment, shall be applied in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 11.08. Any and all sinking fund moneys with respect to
Securities of any series held by the Trustee at the Maturity of Securities of such series, and not
held for the payment or redemption of particular Securities of such series, shall be applied by the
Trustee, together with other moneys, if necessary, to be deposited sufficient for the purpose, to
the payment of the principal of the Securities of such series at Maturity.



     On or before each sinking fund Redemption Date provided with respect to Securities of any
series, the Company shall pay to the Trustee in cash a sum equal to all accrued interest, if any,
to the date fixed for redemption on Securities to be redeemed on such sinking fund Redemption Date
pursuant to this Section 11.08.



     The Trustee shall not redeem any Securities with sinking fund moneys or give any notice of
redemption of Securities by operation of the applicable sinking fund during the continuance of a
default in payment of interest on Securities of such series or of any Event of Default with respect
to such series, except that if the notice of redemption of any Securities shall theretofore have
been mailed in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Trustee shall redeem such Securities if
cash sufficient for that purpose shall be deposited with the Trustee for that purpose in accordance
with the terms of this Article 11. Except as aforesaid, any moneys in the sinking fund with respect
to Securities of any series at the time when any such default or Event of Default with respect to
such series shall occur, and any moneys thereafter paid into such sinking fund shall, during the
continuance of such default or Event of Default with respect to such series, be held as security
for the payment of all Securities of such series; provided, however, that in case such default or
Event of Default with respect to such series



65









 




shall have been cured or waived as provided herein, such moneys shall thereafter be applied on
the next sinking fund payment date on which such moneys may be applied pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 11.08.




ARTICLE 12




Repayment at Option of Holders




     Section 12.01. Applicability of Article. Repayment of Securities of any series before their
Scheduled Maturity Date at the option of Holders thereof shall be made in accordance with the terms
of such Securities and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for
Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article.



     Section 12.02. Repayment of Securities. Securities of any series subject to repayment in
whole or in part at the option of the Holders thereof will, unless otherwise provided in the terms
of such Securities, be repaid at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, together with
interest thereon accrued to the Repayment Date specified in the terms of such Securities. On or
before the Repayment Date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if
the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section
10.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Repayment Price of all the Securities which are to
be repaid on such date.



     Section 12.03. Exercise of Option. Securities of any series subject to repayment at the
option of the Holders thereof will contain an “Option to Elect Repayment” form on the reverse of
such Securities. To be repaid at the option of the Holder, any Security so providing for such
repayment, with the “Option to Elect Repayment” form on the reverse of such Security duly completed
by the Holder, must be received by the Company at the Place of Payment therefor specified in the
terms of such Security (or at such other place or places of which the Company shall from time to
time notify the Holders of such Securities) not earlier than 30 days nor later than 15 days prior
to the Repayment Date. If less than the entire principal amount of such Security is to be repaid in
accordance with the terms of such Security, the principal amount of such Security to be repaid, in
increments of $1,000 unless otherwise specified in the terms of such Security, and the denomination
or denominations of the Security or Securities to be issued to the Holder for the portion of the
principal amount of such Security surrendered that is not to be repaid must be specified. The
principal amount of any Security providing for repayment at the option of the Holder thereof may
not be repaid in part, if, following such repayment, the unpaid principal amount of such Security
would be less than the minimum authorized denomination of Securities of the series of which such
Security to be repaid is a part. Except as otherwise may be provided by the terms of any Security
providing for repayment at the option of the Holder thereof, exercise of the repayment option by
the Holder shall be irrevocable unless waived by the Company.



66









 





     Section 12.04 . When Securities Presented for Repayment Become Due and Payable. If
Securities of any series providing for repayment at the option of the Holders thereof shall have
been surrendered as provided in this Article and as provided by the terms of such Securities, such
Securities or the portions thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid shall become due and payable
and shall be paid by the Company on the Repayment Date therein specified, and on and after such
Repayment Date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of such Securities on such
Repayment Date) interest on such Securities or the portions thereof, as the case may be, shall
cease to accrue.



     Section 12.05 . Securities Repaid in Part. Upon surrender of any Security which is to be
repaid in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to
the Holder of such Security, without service charge and at the expense of the Company, a new
Security or Securities of the same series, tenor, terms and Scheduled Maturity Date, of any
authorized denomination specified by the Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in
exchange for the portion of the principal of such Security so surrendered which is not to be
repaid.



ARTICLE 13

Subordination Of Subordinated Securities




     Section 13.01 . Agreement To Subordinate. The Company covenants and agrees, and each
Holder of any Subordinated Security issued hereunder by his acceptance thereof, whether upon
original issue or upon transfer or assignment, likewise covenants and agrees, that the principal of
(and premium, if any) and interest on each and all of the Subordinated Securities issued hereunder
are hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, in right
of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness.



     Section 13.02 . Payment On Dissolution, Liquidation Or Reorganization; Default On Senior
Indebtedness.



     Upon any payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Company of any kind or
character, whether in cash, property or securities, upon any dissolution or winding up or total or
partial liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or in
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceedings, or upon any assignment for the
benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company or
otherwise, all principal of (and premium, if any) and interest then due upon all Senior
Indebtedness shall first be paid in full, or payment thereof provided for in money or money’s
worth, before the Holders of the Subordinated Securities or the Trustee on their behalf shall be
entitled to receive any assets or securities (other than shares of stock of the Company as
reorganized or readjusted or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a
plan of reorganization or



67









 




readjustment, junior to, or the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in
this Article to the payment of, all Senior Indebtedness which may at the time be outstanding or any
securities issued in respect thereof under any such plan of reorganization or readjustment) in
respect of the Subordinated Securities (for principal, premium or interest). Upon any such
dissolution or winding up or liquidation or reorganization, any payment or distribution of assets
or securities of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities
(other than as aforesaid), to which the Holders of the Subordinated Securities or the Trustee on
their behalf would be entitled, except for the provisions of this Article, shall be made by the
Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person
making such payment or distribution, direct to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their
representatives to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full, in money or money’s
worth, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of
Senior Indebtedness. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee or the Holder of
any Subordinated Security shall, under the circumstances described in the two preceding sentences,
have received any payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Company of any kind or
character, whether in cash, property or securities (other than as aforesaid) before all Senior
Indebtedness is paid in full or payment thereof provided for in money or money’s worth, and if such
fact shall then have been made known to the Trustee or, as the case may be, such Holder, then such
payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Company shall be paid over or delivered
forthwith to the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making
payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Company for application to the payment of
all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in
full, in money or money’s worth, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to
or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness.




     Subject to the payment in full, in money or money’s worth, of all Senior Indebtedness, the
Holders of the Subordinated Securities (together with the holders of any indebtedness of the
Company which is subordinate in right of payment to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness
and which is not subordinate in right of payment to the Subordinated Securities) shall be
subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distribution
of assets or securities of the Company applicable to Senior Indebtedness until the principal of
(and premium, if any) and interest on the Senior Indebtedness shall be paid in full. No such
payments or distributions applicable to Senior Indebtedness shall, as between the Company, its
creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Subordinated
Securities, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of the Subordinated
Securities, it being understood that the provisions of this Article are and are intended solely for
the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Subordinated Securities, on the
one hand, and the holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand. Nothing contained in this



68









 




Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Subordinated Securities is intended to or shall
impair, as between the Company and the Holders of Subordinated Securities, the obligation of the
Company, which is unconditional and absolute, to pay to the Holders of the Subordinated Securities
the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Subordinated Securities as and when the
same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or to affect (except to the
extent specifically provided above in this paragraph) the relative rights of the Holders of the
Subordinated Securities and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness.
Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Subordinated Security from
exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture,
subject to the rights, if any, under this Article, of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect
of assets or securities of the Company of any kind or character, whether cash, property or
securities, received upon the exercise of any such remedy.




     Upon any payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Company referred to in this
Article, the Trustee and the Holders of the Subordinated Securities shall be entitled to rely upon
any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding up,
liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, and upon a certificate of the receiver,
trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making any such payment or
distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Subordinated Securities for the
purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of
Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon,
the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this
Article.



     If:



     (i) there shall have occurred a default in the payment on account of the



     principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on or other monetary amounts due and payable on any
Senior Indebtedness, or



     (ii) any other default shall have occurred concerning any Senior Indebtedness which permits
the holder or holders thereof to accelerate the maturity of such Senior Indebtedness following
notice, the lapse of time, or both, or



     (iii) during any time Senior Indebtedness is outstanding, the principal of, and accrued
interest on, any series of Subordinated Securities shall have been declared due and payable upon an
Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof (and such declaration shall not have been
rescinded or annulled pursuant to this Indenture);



69









 




then, unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist,
or such declaration shall have been waived, rescinded or annulled, no payment shall be made by the
Company on account of the principal (or premium, if any) or interest on the Subordinated
Securities.




     The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person
representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a representative of such holder or a
trustee under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness may
have been issued) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of such Senior
Indebtedness or such representative or trustee on behalf of such holder. In the event that the
Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any
Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to
this Article 13, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent
to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts
pertinent to the right of such Person under this Article 13, and, if such evidence is not
furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to
the right of such Person to receive such payment or distribution.



     Section 13.03 . Payment Prior To Dissolution Or Default. Nothing contained in this Article
or elsewhere in this Indenture, or in any of the Subordinated Securities, shall prevent (a) the
Company, at any time except under the conditions described in Section 13.02 or during the pendency
of any dissolution or winding up or total or partial liquidation or reorganization proceedings
therein referred to, from making payments at any time of principal of (or premium, if any) or
interest on Subordinated Securities or from depositing with the Trustee or any Paying Agent moneys
for such payments, or (b) the application by the Trustee or any Paying Agent of any moneys
deposited with it under this Indenture to the payment of or on account of the principal of (or
premium, if any) or interest on Subordinated Securities to the Holders entitled thereto if such
payment would not have been prohibited by the provisions of Section 13.02 on the day such moneys
were so deposited.



     Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.01 or any other provision of this Indenture, the
Trustee and any Paying Agent shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any Senior
Indebtedness, or of the occurrence of any default with respect to Senior Indebtedness of the
character described in Section 13.02, or of any other facts which would prohibit the making of any
payment of moneys to or by the Trustee or such Paying Agent, unless and until the Trustee shall
have received, no later than three Business Days prior to such payment, written notice thereof from
the Company or from a holder of such Senior Indebtedness and the Trustee shall not be affected by
any such notice which may be received by it on or after such third Business Day.



70









 





     Section 13.04 . Securityholders Authorize Trustee To Effectuate Subordination of Securities.
Each Holder of Subordinated Securities by his or her acceptance thereof authorizes and expressly
directs the Trustee on his or her behalf to take such action in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provisions contained
in this Article 13 and to protect the rights of the Holders of Subordinated Securities pursuant to
this Indenture, and appoints the Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for such purpose.



     Section 13.05 . Right Of Trustee To Hold Senior Indebtedness. The Trustee shall be entitled
to all of the rights set forth in this Article 13 in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time
held by it to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in this
Indenture shall be construed to deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.



     Section 13.06 . Article 13 Not To Prevent Events Of Default. The failure to make a payment
on account of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Subordinated Securities by reason
of any provision of this Article 13 shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of an Event
of Default under Section 6.01 or an event which with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or
both, would become an Event of Default or in any way prevent the Holders of Subordinated Securities
from exercising any right hereunder other than the right to receive payment on the Subordinated
Securities.



     Section 13.07 . No Fiduciary Duty Of Trustee To Holders Of Senior Indebtedness. The Trustee
shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and shall not
be liable to any such holders (other than for its willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence) if
it shall in good faith mistakenly pay over or distribute to the Holders of Subordinated Securities
or the Company or any other Person, cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior
Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 13 or otherwise. Nothing in this Section
13.06 shall affect the obligation of any other such Person to hold such payment for the benefit of,
and to pay such payment over to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative.
