then owned or thereafter acquired by the Company shall immediately, and, in the
case of any Excepted Property described or referred to in paragraphs (H) through
(J) inclusive, of "Excepted Property" in the Indenture, upon demand of the
Trustee or such other trustee or receiver, become subject to the lien of the
Indenture to the extent permitted by law, and the Trustee or such other trustee
or receiver may, to the extent permitted by law, at the same time likewise take
possession thereof, and (ii) whenever all Events of Default shall have been
cured and the possession of all or substantially all of the Trust Estate shall
have been restored to the Company, such Excepted Property shall again be
excepted and excluded from the lien of the  Indenture to the extent and
otherwise as hereinabove set forth and as set forth in the Indenture.

     The Company may, however, pursuant to Granting Clause Third of the
Indenture, subject any Excepted Property to the lien of the Indenture, whereupon
the same shall cease to be Excepted Property.

     TO HAVE AND TO HOLD all said property, rights, privileges and franchises of
every kind and description, real, personal or mixed, hereby and hereafter (by
Supplemental Indenture or otherwise) granted, bargained, sold, alienated,
remised, released, conveyed, assigned, transferred, mortgaged, hypothecated,
pledged, set over or confirmed as aforesaid, or intended, agreed or covenanted
so to be, together with all the appurtenances thereto appertaining unto the
Trustee and its successors and assigns forever.

     SUBJECT, HOWEVER, to (i) Permitted Encumbrances (as defined in Section 1.01
of the Indenture), (ii) to the extent permitted by Section 14.06 of the
Indenture, as to property acquired since the date of execution of the Original
Indenture, (a) any duly recorded or perfected prior mortgage or other lien that
may exist thereon at the date of the acquisition thereof by the Company, and (b)
purchase money mortgages created by the Company at the time of acquisition
thereof, and (iii) defects of title to and encumbrances on property described in
Article IV of the First Supplemental Indenture.

     BUT IN TRUST, NEVERTHELESS, with power of sale, for the equal and
proportionate benefit and security of the Holders from time to time of all the
Outstanding Secured

                                                                               7

Bonds without any priority of any such Bond over any other such Bond and for the
enforcement of the payment of such Bonds in accordance with their terms.

     UPON CONDITION that, until the happening of an Event of Default and subject
to the provisions of Article Six of the Indenture, the Company shall be
permitted to possess and use the Trust Estate, except cash, securities and other
personal property deposited, or required to be deposited, with the Trustee and
to explore for, mine, extract and dispose of coal, ore, gas, oil and other
minerals, to harvest standing timber and to receive and use the rents, issues,
profits, revenues and other income, products and proceeds of the Trust Estate.

     AND IT IS HEREBY COVENANTED AND DECLARED that all the Bonds are to be
authenticated and delivered and the Trust Estate is to be held and applied by
the Trustee, subject to the further covenants, conditions and trusts set forth
in the Indenture, and the Company does hereby covenant and agree to and with the
Trustee, for the equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders of the Bonds as
follows:

                                   ARTICLE I

                  TERMS AND ISSUE OF THE 2001 SERIES A BONDS

     Section 1.01.  General.  There be hereby established under the Indenture,
as further amended by this Eleventh Supplemental Indenture, a series of Bonds,
known as and entitled "2001 Series A Bonds" (collectively, the "2001 Series A
Bonds"). The aggregate principal amount of 2001 Series A Bonds which may be
authenticated and delivered and Outstanding is limited to TWO HUNDRED FIFTEEN
MILLION AND NO/00 DOLLARS ($215,000,000.00). The Trustee is hereby appointed as
Authenticating Agent for the 2001 Series A Bonds.

     The 2001 Series A Bonds shall be issuable without coupons and in
denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.  Each 2001 Series A Bond
shall be dated the date of its authentication.  The 2001 Series Bonds shall bear
interest from their date of issuance, payable on December 1, 2001, and on each
June 1 and December 1 of each year thereafter at the rate of 6.25% per annum and
shall mature, subject to prior redemption, on June 1, 2011.  Interest on the
2001 Series A Bonds shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months.

     The principal and the Redemption Price of and interest on the 2001 Series A
Bonds shall be payable to the registered owner of the 2001 Series A Bonds or its
assignee in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture on the applicable
principal, Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date.  Interest on the 2001
Series A Bonds shall be payable without presentation of the 2001 Series A Bonds
for payment.  Payment of the principal and Redemption Price of and interest on
any 2001 Series A Bond shall be payable at the office of the Trustee in
Richmond, Virginia.  Such location is the Place of Payment.

     The Regular Record Date (referred to in Section 3.09 of the Indenture) for
the payment of interest on the 2001 Series A Bonds shall be the fifteenth day
(whether or not a business day) of the calendar month next preceding such
Interest Payment Date.

                                                                               8
<PAGE>

     Section 1.02.  Make Whole Redemption.

                    (a)  The 2001 Series A Bonds are subject to redemption, as a
whole or in part, at the election of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to
the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the 2001 Series A Bonds being
redeemed plus accrued interest to the Redemption Date; and (ii) the sum of the
present values of all principal and interest payments scheduled to become due
after the date of such redemption in respect of the 2001 Series A Bonds being
redeemed, discounted on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting
of twelve 30-day months) and calculated using a discount rate equal to the sum
of (A) the yield to maturity on the U.S. Treasury security having an average
life equal to the remaining average life of the 2001 Series A Bonds and trading
in the secondary market at the price closest to par, and (B) twenty (20) basis
points; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if there is no U.S. Treasury security having an
average life equal to the remaining average life of the 2001 Series A Bonds,
such discount rate shall be calculated using a yield to maturity interpolated or
extrapolated on a straight-line basis (rounding to the nearest calendar month,
if necessary) from the yields to maturity of two U.S. Treasury securities having
average lives most closely corresponding to the remaining life of the 2001
Series A Bonds and trading in the secondary market at the price closest to par.
Without duplication, any interest due and payable but unpaid on 2001 Series A
Bonds being redeemed shall be paid on the Redemption Date therefor.

                    (b)  The calculations set forth in paragraph (a) above of
this Section 1.02 shall be determined on the third business day prior to the
scheduled Redemption Date by an investment banking institution of national
standing in the United States selected by the Company or, if the Trustee does
not receive notice of such selection at least ten days prior to a scheduled
Redemption Date or if an Event of Default under the Indenture shall have
occurred and be continuing, selected by the Trustee.

                    (c)  If less than all of the 2001 Series A Bonds are to be
redeemed, the particular 2001 Series A Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by
the Trustee from the Outstanding 2001 Series A Bonds which have not been
previously been called for redemption by prorating, as nearly as may be, the
principal amount of the 2001 Series A Bonds to be redeemed among the Holders
thereof in proportion to the aggregate principal amount thereof registered in
their respective names; EXCEPT that, if there shall have been previously filed
with the Trustee an Act of all of the Holders thereof satisfactory to the
Trustee specifying the method of selecting the 2001 Series A Bonds to be
redeemed, such selection shall be made by the Trustee in accordance with the
terms of such Act.

                    (d)  Upon receipt of a notice from the Company of its intent
to effect an optional redemption of the 2001 Series A Bonds, the Trustee shall
cause notice of such redemption to be given to each Holder of the 2001 Series A
Bonds then Outstanding at its address as the same shall last appear upon the
Bond Register, by first class mail at least 30 and no more than 60 days prior to
the Redemption Date; provided that so long as the Book-Entry System is
maintained in effect, notice of redemption shall be given to the registered
Holders at the time and in the manner required in the DTC Letter of
Representations executed in connection with the issuance and sale of the 2001
Series A Bonds (as amended and in effect from time to time, the "2001 Series A
DTC Letter of Representations"), and the Trustee shall not be required to give
any other notice of redemption otherwise required herein. The notice of
redemption shall specify the Redemption Date, the place or places of payments,
that payment will be made only upon the presentation and

                                                                               9
<PAGE>

surrender of the 2001 Series A Bonds to be redeemed, that interest, if any,
accrued to the Redemption Date will be paid as specified in such notice and that
on and after such date interest thereon shall cease to accrue.

                    (e)  Except as provided in this Section 1.02, the 2001
Series A Bonds are not redeemable at any time prior to their Stated Maturity.

     Section 1.03.  Exchangeability.

     When the 2001 Series A Bonds are held in a Book-Entry System, the delivery
of 2001 Series A Bonds, exchanges, transfers and assignments of the 2001 Series
A Bonds and issuance of the 2001 Series A Bonds shall be determined by the
provisions of the 2001 Series A DTC Letter of Representations.

     Subject to Section 3.07 of the Indenture, all 2001 Series A Bonds not held
in the Book-Entry System shall be fully interchangeable, and, upon surrender at
the office or agency of the Trustee in a Place of Payment therefor, shall be
exchangeable for other 2001 Series A Bonds of a different authorized
denomination or denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
The Company will execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, 2001
Series A Bonds whenever the same are required for any such exchange.

     Section 1.04.  Book-Entry System, Certificates, Registration and Payment.

     The 2001 Series A Bonds initially shall be held in a Book-Entry System and
shall (except to the extent otherwise required by the 2001 Series A DTC Letter
of Representations) be evidenced by one or more certificates, in an amount equal
to the aggregate principal amount of the 2001 Series A Bonds.

     The principal and Redemption Price of and interest on the 2001 Series A
Bonds shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America.  While
the 2001 Series A Bonds are held in the Book-Entry System, payment of the
principal and Redemption Price of and interest on the 2001 Series A Bonds shall
be made by wire transfer of Federal funds or equivalent same-day funds, or in
such other manner as permitted by the DTC Letter of Representations executed by
the Company in connection with such series (as the same may be amended from time
to time), to the account of Cede & Co.  In the event the 2001 Series A Bonds are
no longer held in the Book-Entry System, (i) interest on the 2001 Series A Bonds
shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date by check payable to the Holder
(except that if so instructed in writing by a Holder of $1,000,000 or more of
the 2001 Series A Bonds on or prior to the applicable Regular Record Date, such
payments shall be made by the wire transfer of Federal funds on the Interest
Payment Date), mailed to the Holder at his or her address as it appears on the
Bonds Register on the last day of the calendar month prior to the Interest
Payment Date, or in such other manner as such Holder and the Trustee may
determine, and (ii) principal shall be payable only upon presentation and
surrender of each 2001 Series A Bond, as the same becomes due, at the office
from which the Trustee performs the payment function for 2001 Series A Bonds.
Except as may be provided in the 2001 Series A DTC Letter of Representations
with respect to 2001 Series A Bonds then held in the Book-Entry System, payment
of principal shall be made only upon presentation and surrender of each 2001
Series A Bond, as the same becomes due, at the office from which the Trustee
performs the payment function for the 2001 Series A Bonds.

                                                                              10
<PAGE>

     The Trustee shall act as Bond Registrar and shall maintain registration
books for the registration and the registration of transfer of the 2001 Series A
Bonds.

     So long as the 2001 Series A Bonds are held in the Book-Entry System, the
registered Holder of all of the 2001 Series A Bonds shall be DTC, and the 2001
Series A Bonds shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for
DTC, pursuant to the DTC Letter of Representations with respect to 2001 Series A
Bonds, as amended from time to time, and the provisions of such Letter of
Representations shall be incorporated herein by this reference.

     Upon initial issuance, the ownership of the 2001 Series A Bonds shall be
registered by the Trustee on the Bond Register in the name of Cede & Co., as
nominee of DTC.  The Trustee and the Company may treat DTC (or its nominee) as
the sole and exclusive registered Holder of the 2001 Series A Bonds registered
in its name for the purposes of payment of the principal and Redemption Price of
or interest on the 2001 Series A Bonds, selecting the 2001 Series A Bonds or
portions thereof to be redeemed, giving notice as required under the Indenture,
registering the transfer of 2001 Series A Bonds, obtaining any consent or other
action to be taken by the Holders and for all other purposes whatsoever; and
neither the Trustee nor the Company shall be affected by any notice to the
contrary.  Neither the Trustee nor the Company shall have any responsibility or
obligation to any person claiming a beneficial ownership interest in the 2001
Series A Bonds under or through DTC or any DTC Participant, or any other person
which is not shown on the Bond Register as being a registered Holder, with
respect to the accuracy of any records maintained by DTC or any DTC Participant;
the payment by DTC or any DTC Participant of any amount in respect of the
principal or Redemption Price of or interest on the 2001 Series A Bonds; any
notice or direction which is permitted or required to be given to or received
from Holders under the Indenture; the selection by DTC or any DTC Participant of
any Person to receive payment in the event of a partial redemption of the 2001
Series A Bonds; or any consent given or other action taken by DTC as Holder; nor
shall any DTC Participant or any such Person be deemed to be a third party
beneficiary of any Holders' rights under the Indenture.  The Trustee shall pay
from moneys available hereunder all principal and Redemption Price of and
interest on the 2001 Series A Bonds only to or upon the order of DTC or its
designee, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy
and discharge the Company's obligations with respect to the principal and
Redemption Price of and interest on the 2001 Series A Bonds to the extent of the
sum or sums so paid.  So long as the 2001 Series A Bonds are held in the Book-
Entry System, no person other than DTC shall receive an authenticated Bond
evidencing the obligation of the Company to make payments of principal and
Redemption Price of and interest pursuant to the Indenture.  Upon delivery by
DTC to the Trustee of DTC's written notice to the effect that DTC has determined
to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., and subject to the
provisions of the Indenture with respect to transfers of 2001 Series A Bonds,
the term "Cede & Co." in this Eleventh Supplemental Indenture shall refer to
such new nominee of DTC.

     Section 1.05.  Availability of Bond Certificates.

     At any time it determines that it is in the best interests of the Holders,
the Company may notify DTC and the Trustee, whereupon DTC will, if consistent
with DTC's then-current policies, notify the DTC Participants of the
availability through DTC of 2001 Series A Bond certificates.  In such event, the
Company shall prepare and execute and the Trustee shall issue, transfer and
exchange, at the expense of the Company, 2001 Series A Bond certificates as
requested in writing by DTC in appropriate amounts.  DTC may determine to
discontinue providing its services with

                                                                              11
<PAGE>

respect to the 2001 Series A Bonds at any time by giving written notice to the
Company and the Trustee and discharging its responsibilities with respect
thereto under applicable law. If DTC resigns as securities depository for the
2001 Series A Bonds, 2001 Series A Bond certificates shall be delivered pursuant
to this Section. Under such circumstances (if there is no successor securities
depository), the Company and the Trustee shall be obligated to deliver 2001
Series A Bonds as described in the Indenture, provided that the expense in
connection therewith shall be paid by the Company. In the event that
certificates for 2001 Series A Bonds are issued, the provisions of the Indenture
shall apply to, among other things, the transfer and exchange of such
certificates and the method of payment of principal of and Redemption Price of
and interest on such 2001 Series A Bonds. Whenever DTC requests the Company to
do so, the Company will cooperate with DTC in taking appropriate action after
written notice (a) to make available one or more separate certificates
evidencing the 2001 Series A Bonds to any DTC Participant having 2001 Series A
Bonds credited to its DTC account, or (b) to arrange for another securities
depository to maintain custody of certificates evidencing the 2001 Series A
Bonds.

     Section 1.06.  Form of 2001 Series A Bonds.  The 2001 Series A Bonds and
the Trustee's authentication certificate to be executed on the Bonds of such
series shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, with
such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as
are required or permitted by the Indenture, and may have such letters, numbers
or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon
as may be required to comply with the rules of any securities exchange or as
may, consistently herewith, be determined by the Officers executing such Bonds,
as evidenced by their execution of such Bonds.

     Section 1.07.  Ambac Assurance Designated Credit Enhancer.  Ambac Assurance
Corporation, a Wisconsin-domiciled stock insurance company ("Ambac Assurance"),
                                                             ---------------
is hereby designated the Credit Enhancer with respect to the 2001 Series A
Bonds.

     Section 1.08.  Consent Of Ambac Assurance To Amendments To the Indenture.
If the financial guaranty insurance policy issued by Ambac Assurance insuring
the payment when due of the principal of and interest on the 2001 Series A Bonds
as provided therein (the "Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy") is in effect and
Ambac Assurance is not in breach of any of the provisions thereof, any provision
of the Indenture expressly recognizing or granting rights in or to Ambac
Assurance may not be amended in any manner which affects the rights of Ambac
Assurance hereunder without the prior written consent of Ambac Assurance.

     Section 1.09.  Ambac Assurance To Be Subrogated To Rights Of Holders of
2001 Series A Bonds. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the
event that the principal or interest due on the 2001 Series A Bonds shall be
paid by Ambac Assurance pursuant to the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy, the
2001 Series A Bonds shall remain Outstanding for all purposes of the Indenture,
not be defeased or otherwise satisfied and not be considered paid by the
Company, and the obligations of the Company to the Holders of the 2001 Series A
Bonds shall continue to exist and shall run to the benefit of Ambac Assurance,
and Ambac Assurance shall be subrogated to the rights of such Holders.

     Section 1.10.  Trustee Notification To Ambac Assurance Of Failure To
Deliver Notices By Company. The Trustee shall notify Ambac Assurance of any
failure of the Company to provide any notices, certificates or other documents
required to be provided to the Trustee pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.

                                                                              12
<PAGE>

     Section 1.11.  Trustee To Notify Ambac Assurance Of Events Of Default.  The
Trustee shall immediately notify Ambac Assurance upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default of which it has knowledge.

     Section 1.12.  Payment Procedure Pursuant To The Financial Guaranty
Insurance Policy. If the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy shall be in full
force and effect, the Trustee and Paying Agent agree to comply with the
following provisions:

                    (a)  On the Interest Payment Dates the Trustee or Paying
Agent, if any, will determine whether there will be sufficient funds to pay the
principal of or interest on the 2001 Series A Bonds on such Interest Payment
Date. If the Trustee or Paying Agent, if any, determines that there will be
insufficient funds, the Trustee or Paying Agent, if any, shall so notify Ambac
Assurance. Such notice shall specify the amount of the anticipated deficiency,
the 2001 Series A Bonds to which such deficiency is applicable and whether such
2001 Series A Bonds will be deficient as to principal or interest, or both. If
there is such a deficiency but the Trustee or Paying Agent, if any, has not so
notified Ambac Assurance on an Interest Payment Date (but does do so on a later
date), Ambac Assurance will make payments of principal or interest due on the
2001 Series A Bonds on or before the first day next following the date on which
Ambac Assurance shall have received notice of nonpayment from the Trustee or
Paying Agent, if any.

                    (b)  The Trustee or Paying Agent, if any, shall, after
giving notice to Ambac Assurance as provided in (a) above, make available to
Ambac Assurance and, at Ambac Assurance's direction, to The Bank of New York in
New York, New York, as insurance trustee for Ambac Assurance or any successor
insurance trustee (the "Insurance Trustee"), the registration books of the
Company maintained by the Bond Registrar.

                    (c)  The Trustee or Paying Agent, if any, shall provide
Ambac Assurance and the Insurance Trustee with a list of registered Holders of
the 2001 Series A Bonds entitled to receive principal or interest payments from
Ambac Assurance under the terms of the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy, and
shall make arrangements with the Insurance Trustee (i) to mail checks or drafts
to the registered Holders of the 2001 Series A Bonds entitled to receive full or
partial interest payments from Ambac Assurance and (ii) to pay principal upon
2001 Series A Bonds surrendered to the Insurance Trustee by the registered
Holders entitled to receive full or partial principal payments from Ambac
Assurance.
                    (d)  The Trustee or Paying Agent, if any, shall, at the time
it provides notice to Ambac Assurance pursuant to (a) above, notify registered
Holders of the 2001 Series A Bonds entitled to receive the payment of principal
or interest thereon from Ambac Assurance (i) as to the fact of such entitlement,
(ii) that Ambac Assurance will remit to them all or a part of the interest
payments next coming due upon proof of Holder entitlement to interest payments
and delivery to the Insurance Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Insurance
Trustee, of an appropriate assignment of the registered Holder's right to
payment, (iii) that should they be entitled to receive full payment of principal
from Ambac Assurance, they must surrender their 2001 Series A Bonds (along with
an appropriate instrument of assignment in form satisfactory to the Insurance
Trustee to permit ownership of such Bonds to be registered in the name of Ambac
Assurance) for payment to the Insurance Trustee, and not the Trustee or Paying
Agent, if any, and (iv) that should they be entitled to receive partial payment
of principal from Ambac Assurance, they must surrender their 2001 Series A Bonds
for payment thereon first to the Trustee or Paying Agent, if any, who shall note
on such

                                                                              13
<PAGE>

2001 Series A Bonds the portion of the principal paid by the Trustee or Paying
Agent, if any, and then, along with an appropriate instrument of assignment in
form satisfactory to the Insurance Trustee, to the Insurance Trustee, which will
then pay the unpaid portion of principal.

                    (e)  In the event that the Trustee or Paying Agent, if any,
has notice that any payment of principal of or interest on a 2001 Series A Bond
which has become due for payment and which is made to a Holder of a 2001 Series
A Bond by or on behalf of the Company has been deemed a preferential transfer
and theretofore recovered from its Holder pursuant to the United States
Bankruptcy Code by a trustee in bankruptcy in accordance with the final,
nonappealable order of a court having jurisdiction, the Trustee or Paying Agent,
if any, shall, at the time Ambac Assurance is notified pursuant to (a) above,
notify all Holders of 2001 Series A Bonds that in the event that any Holder's
payment is so recovered, such Holder will be entitled to payment from Ambac
Assurance to the extent of such recovery if sufficient funds are not otherwise
available, and the Trustee or Paying Agent, if any, shall furnish to Ambac
Assurance its records evidencing the payments of principal of and interest on
the 2001 Series A Bonds which have been made by the Trustee or Paying Agent, if
any, and subsequently recovered from Holders and the dates on which such
payments were made.

                    (f)  In addition to those rights granted Ambac Assurance
under this Eleventh Supplemental Indenture, Ambac Assurance shall, to the extent
it makes payment of principal of or interest on the 2001 Series A Bonds, become
subrogated to the rights of the recipients of such payments in accordance with
the terms of the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy, and to evidence such
subrogation (i) in the case of subrogation as to claims for past due interest,
the Trustee or Paying Agent, if any, shall note Ambac Assurance's rights as
subrogee on the registration books of the Company maintained by the Bond
Registrar upon receipt from Ambac Assurance of proof of the payment of interest
thereon to the registered Holders of the 2001 Series A Bonds, and (ii) in the
case of subrogation as to claims for past due principal, the Trustee or Paying
Agent, if any, shall note Ambac Assurance's rights as subrogee on the
registration books of the Company maintained by the Bond Registrar upon
surrender of the 2001 Series A Bonds by the registered Holders thereof with
proof of the payment of principal thereof.

     Section 1.13.  Ambac Assurance As Third Party Beneficiary.  To the extent
that the Indenture confers upon or gives or grants to Ambac Assurance any right,
remedy or claim under or by reason of the Indenture, Ambac Assurance is hereby
explicitly recognized as being a third-party beneficiary hereunder and may
enforce any such right remedy or claim conferred, given or granted hereunder in
accordance with the terms hereof. Notwithstanding any other provision to the
contrary herein, any rights, remedies or claims of Ambac Assurance under or by
reason of the Indenture shall only be applicable so long as the Financial
Guaranty Insurance Policy shall be in full force and effect and Ambac Assurance
shall not be in default thereunder.

     Section 1.14.  Trustee.  The Company shall give written notice to Ambac
Assurance of the resignation and/or removal of the Trustee and the appointment
of a successor Trustee.

                                                                              14

     not more than 30 days prior to the date of the related Application, and
     signed, in addition to the two Officers signing the same, by a Person, who
     may be one of such Officers, signing as an Accountant, stating that:

          (1)  the Margins for Interest for any 12 consecutive calendar months
     during the period of 18 calendar months immediately preceding the first day
     of the calendar month in which the relevant Application is made, are not
     less than 1.10 times the Interest Charges during such 12-month period; and

          (2)  the Margins for Interest have been calculated in accordance with
     the definition contained in this Section and to that end specifying the
     revenues and income of the Company and the deductions therefrom, all as
     called for by that definition.

     If any period of 12 months referred to in such Available Margins
     Certificate is a period with respect to which an annual report is required
     to be filed by the Company pursuant to Section 11.04, such Certificate
     shall be accompanied by an Independent Accountant's Certificate stating in
     substance that nothing came to the attention of such Accountant in
     connection with his audit of such period which would lead him to believe
     that there was any incorrect or inaccurate statement in such Certificate.

     Section 2.05.  Section 1.01 of the Indenture is amended by deleting the

          "Margins for Interest" means, for any period, the net margins of the
     Company for such period, which shall include revenues of the Company, if
     any, subject to possible refund at a later date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, no
     deductions shall be made as a result of refunds ordered in a subsequent
     period; adjusted by:

          (a)  adding:

          (i)  Interest Charges;

                                                                              16
<PAGE>

          (ii)   the amount, if any, deducted in arriving at net margins on
     account of accruals of Federal income and other taxes imposed on income
     after deduction of Interest Charges for such period;

          (iii)  the amount, if any, deducted in arriving at net margins on
     account of any losses incurred by any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the
     Company other than amounts deducted pursuant to paragraph (b)(ii) below;

          (iv)   the amount, if any, the Company actually receives in such
     period as a dividend or other distribution of earnings of any Subsidiary or
     Affiliate (whether or not such earnings were for such period or any earlier
     period or periods) which amount has not otherwise been reflected as an
     increase in net margins in such period or any earlier period or periods;
     and

          (v)    the amount of any expenses or provisions for any non-recurring
     charge to income or margins or retained earnings of whatever kind or nature
     (including, without limitation, (A) the recognition of expense due to the
     non-recoverability of assets or expenses and (B) the accelerated portion of
     the amortization of any deferred charges or regulatory assets carried on
     the books of the Company) that may have been deducted or otherwise taken
     into account in arriving at net margins whether or not recorded as a non-
     recurring charge in the Company's books of account; and

          (b)    subtracting:

          (i)    the amount, if any, added in arriving at net margins on account
     of any income, gain, earnings or profits of any Subsidiary or Affiliate of
     the Company other than amounts added pursuant to paragraph (a)(iv) above;
     and

          (ii)   the amount, if any, the Company actually contributes to the
     capital of, or actually pays under a guarantee or like agreement by the
     Company of an obligation of, any Subsidiary or Affiliate in such period, to
     the extent of any accumulated losses incurred by such Subsidiary or
     Affiliate (whether or not such losses were for such period or any earlier
     periods), but only to the extent (A) such losses have not otherwise caused
     other contributions or payments to be subtracted from net margins for
     purposes of computing Margins for Interest for a prior period and (B) such
     amount has not otherwise been subtracted from net margins.

     Margins for Interest shall be determined in accordance with Accounting
     Requirements; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such determination shall be made on a
     Company only and not on a consolidated basis.

     Section 2.07.  Section 9.01 of the Indenture is amended by deleting the
paragraph (D) thereof and substituting in lieu thereof the following:

     D. a failure to pay any portion of the principal when due and payable
     (other than amounts due and payable on acceleration) under any bond,
     debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness for money borrowed by the
     Company, other than any indebtedness evidenced by a Bond, whether such
     indebtedness now exists or shall

                                                                              17
<PAGE>

     hereafter be created, which failure shall have resulted in such
     indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date
     on which it would otherwise have become due and payable in an aggregate
     principal amount exceeding $10,000,000 without such indebtedness having
     been discharged or such acceleration having been rescinded or annulled
     within a period of ten (10) days after such acceleration; or

following at the end of paragraph (J) thereof:

     For purposes of this paragraph of this Section, any Supplemental Indenture
     will be presumed not to materially and adversely affect the rights of the
     Holders if (1) this Indenture, as supplemented and amended by such
     Supplemental Indenture, provides equally and ratably for the payment of
     principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Outstanding Bonds
     which are to remain Outstanding, and (2) subject to the last sentence of
     this paragraph, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee written evidence
     from at least two (2) nationally recognized statistical rating
     organizations then rating the Bonds (or other obligations primarily secured
     by Outstanding Bonds) that their respective ratings of the Outstanding
     Bonds (or other obligations primarily secured by Outstanding Bonds) that
     are not subject to Credit Enhancement will not be withdrawn or reduced as a
     result of the changes in the Indenture effected by such Supplemental
     Indenture; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the failure to qualify for the
     presumption set forth in this sentence shall not create any presumption to
     the contrary or be used to question the judgment of the Trustee; PROVIDED,
     FURTHER, that the provisions of this paragraph may not be used to amend or
     modify the items listed in paragraphs (A) through (F) of Section 13.02
     hereof in any way that is inconsistent with the provisions of such Section
     13.02.  The Trustee may rely on the written evidence of the nationally
     recognized statistical rating organizations then rating the Bonds (or other
     obligations primarily secured by Outstanding Bonds) with respect to credit
     matters relating to the Company to the extent that it deems such reliance
     to be appropriate.

     The Company shall promptly give notice to any Credit Enhancer of any
     Supplemental Indenture entered into pursuant to the provisions of this
     Section 13.01.

     Section 2.10.  The Indenture is amended by deleting Section 14.14 thereof
and substituting the following in lieu thereof:

          Section 14.14. Rate Covenant.  Subject to the approval or
     determination of any regulatory or judicial authority with jurisdiction
     over rates, rents, charges, fees and other compensation (collectively,
     "Rates"), the Company shall establish and collect Rates (i) for the use or
     the sale of the output, capacity or service of the System which are
     reasonably expected to yield Margins for Interest for each fiscal year of
     the Company, equal to at least 1.10 times Interest Charges for such period,

                                                                              18
<PAGE>

     and (ii) that, together with other moneys available to the Company, produce
     moneys sufficient to enable the Company to comply with its covenants under
     this Indenture.  Promptly upon any material change in the circumstances
     which were contemplated at the time such Rates were most recently reviewed,
     but not less frequently than once every twelve (12) months, the Company
     shall review the Rates so established and shall, subject to any necessary
     regulatory approval, promptly establish or revise such Rates as necessary
     to comply with the foregoing requirements.

     Section 2.11.  The Indenture is amended by deleting Section 14.15 thereof
and substituting the following in lieu thereof:

          Section 14.15. Distributions to Members.  The Company shall not
     directly or indirectly declare or pay any dividend or make any payments,
     distributions or retirements of patronage capital to members (each a

     an Event of Default shall exist, or (ii) the Company's patronage capital
     (determined in accordance with Accounting Requirements) as of the end of
     the Company's most recent fiscal quarter would be less than twenty percent
     (20%) of the Company's total long-term debt and patronage capital
     (determined in accordance with Accounting Requirements) at such time.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing and so long as no Event of Default shall
     exist, the Company may declare and make Distributions each fiscal year as
     long as the aggregate Distributions for such fiscal year is equal to or
     less than five percent (5%) of the Company's patronage capital (determined
     in accordance with Accounting Requirements) as of the end of the
     immediately preceding fiscal year.  For purposes of this Section,
     determination of patronage capital and total long-term debt and patronage
     capital shall not include any amount on account of earnings retained in any
     Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company and any such determination of total
     long-term debt and patronage capital shall exclude the debt of any
     Subsidiary or Affiliate.

     Section 2.12.  The Indenture is amended by deleting Sections 14.16, 14.17
and 14.18 thereof and substituting the word "Reserved." in lieu thereof in each

     Section 3.01.  Pursuant to Section 13.01 of the Indenture, the Indenture is
hereby amended effective as of the date hereof as follows:

                    (a)  Section 1.01 is amended to include the following after
the definition of "Regular Record Date":

          "Release Date" means the earliest date on which there ceases to be
     Outstanding each and every Bond initially issued prior to September 1,
     2001, other than any Bond whose Holder shall have agreed in writing that
     the Release Date may occur while such Bond remains Outstanding; PROVIDED,
     HOWEVER, the Release Date shall not occur if immediately thereafter there
     would exist an Event of Default or any event which with notice or lapse of
     time or both would become an Event of Default; PROVIDED, FURTHER, if

                                                                              19
<PAGE>

     that any such Event of Default or event shall prevent the Release Date from
     occurring, the Release Date shall occur when such Event of Default or event
     shall cease to exist so long as no such other Event of Default or event
     shall exist.

                    (b)  With respect to Bonds issued on or after the date of
this Eleventh Supplemental Indenture, the words "First Mortgage Bond [Year]
Series ___" appearing in the title of the form of Bond set forth in Section 2.02
(Form of Face of Bond) of the Indenture are deleted and the words "[Year] Series
___ Bond" are substituted therefor.

                    (c)  With respect to Bonds issued on or after the date of
this Eleventh Supplemental Indenture, Section 2.03 (Form of Reverse of Bond) of
the Indenture is amended as follows:

          (i)  The first sentence of the first paragraph of Section 2.03 of the
Indenture is deleted in its entirety and the following sentences are substituted

     Dominion Electric Cooperative and Crestar Bank, as trustee, as the same has
     been and may be amended and effective from time to time prior to the
     Release Date (the "Original Indenture"), under which the undersigned now
     acts as Trustee.  From and after the Release Date (as defined in the
     Eleventh Supplemental Indenture to the Original Indenture), this shall
     constitute one of the unsecured Obligations referred to in and entitled to
     the benefits of that Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of September
     1, 2001, between Old Dominion Electric Cooperative and SunTrust Bank,
     successor by merger to Crestar Bank, as trustee, the form of which is
     attached as Exhibit B to such Eleventh Supplemental Indenture (the
     "Restated Indenture"), which Restated Indenture amends and supersedes the
     Original Indenture in its entirety from and after the Release Date.  The
     Original Indenture, including all indentures supplemental thereto and
     effective prior to the Release Date, contains a statement of the
     description of the properties thereby mortgaged, pledged and assigned, the
     nature and extent of the security and the respective rights, limitations of
     rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and

     The Restated Indenture, including all indentures supplemental thereto,
     contains a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights,
     duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the
     Holders of the Obligations and of the terms upon which the Obligations are,
     and are to be, authenticated and delivered from and after the Release Date.
     From and after the Release Date, the term "Bond" as used in this instrument
     shall be construed to mean "Obligation" as that term is used in the
     Restated Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto.  The term
     "Indenture" as used herein means the Original Indenture prior to the
     Release Date and the Restated Indenture from and after the Release Date.

               (ii) The words "Section 13.02 of the Indenture" in the fifteenth
     paragraph of Section 2.03 of the Indenture are deleted and the words
     "Section 13.02 of the Original Indenture

                                                                              20

that the form of Trustee's Certificate of Authentication for all Bonds issued on
or after the date of this Eleventh Supplemental Indenture and prior to the
Release Date is as follows:

     This is one of the Bonds referred to in and secured by the Indenture of
     Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated as of May 1, 1992 by and between Old
     Dominion Electric Cooperative and Crestar Bank, as trustee, as the same may
     be amended and effective from time to time prior to the Release Date (the
     "Original Indenture"), under which the undersigned now acts as Trustee.
     From and after the Release Date (as defined in the Eleventh Supplemental
     Indenture to the Original Indenture), this shall constitute one of the
     unsecured Obligations referred to in and entitled to the benefits of that
     Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of September 1, 2001, between Old
     Dominion Electric Cooperative and SunTrust Bank, successor by merger to
     Crestar Bank, as trustee, the form of which is attached as Exhibit B to

     Restated Indenture amends and supersedes the Original Indenture in its
     entirety from and after the Release Date.

all covenants, terms, conditions and other provisions of the Indenture shall be
amended and superseded in their entirety by the covenants, terms, conditions and
other provisions of the Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of September 1,
2001, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit B to this Eleventh Supplemental
Indenture, and (ii) any lien or security interest arising under the Indenture
shall automatically and without further action terminate, and (iii) the Trustee
shall forthwith take all steps (including but not limited to execution,
delivery, recording and filing of satisfactions of mortgage or Uniform
Commercial Code termination statements) the Company deems reasonably necessary
or desirable to confirm or give notice of the termination and release of any
lien or security interest arising under the Indenture and to evidence the

interest of the Trustee in and to the Trust Estate (including but not limited to
all Trust Moneys and Pledged Securities).

                                                                              21

                                                Authorized Officer

                               [REVERSE OF BOND]

     This is one of the Bonds referred to in and secured by the Indenture of
Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated as of May 1, 1992, by and between Old Dominion
Electric Cooperative and Crestar Bank, as trustee, as the same has been and may
be amended and effective from time to time prior to the Release Date (the
"Original Indenture"), under which the undersigned now acts as Trustee.  From
and after the Release Date (as defined in the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture to
the Original Indenture), this shall constitute one of the unsecured Obligations
referred to in and entitled to the benefits of that Amended and Restated
Indenture, dated as of September 1, 2001, between Old Dominion Electric
Cooperative and SunTrust Bank, successor by merger to Crestar Bank, as trustee,
the form of which is attached as Exhibit B to such Eleventh Supplemental
Indenture (the "Restated Indenture"), which Restated Indenture amends and
supersedes the Original Indenture in its entirety

                                      A-2
<PAGE>

from and after the Release Date. The Original Indenture, including all
indentures supplemental thereto and effective prior to the Release Date,
contains a statement of the description of the properties thereby mortgaged,
pledged and assigned, the nature and extent of the security and the respective
rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company,
the Trustee and the Holders of the Bonds and of the terms upon which the Bonds
are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered, in each case prior to the
Release Date. The Restated Indenture, including all indentures supplemental
thereto, contains a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights,
duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of
the Obligations and of the terms upon which the Obligations are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered from and after the Release Date. From and after the
Release Date, the term "Bond" as used in this instrument shall be construed to
mean "Obligation" as that term is used in the Restated Indenture and all
indentures supplemental thereto. The term "Indenture" as used herein means the
Original Indenture prior to the Release Date and the Restated Indenture from and
after the Release Date. This Bond is one of the series designated on the face
hereof, limited in aggregate principal amount to Two Hundred Fifteen Million
Dollars ($215,000,000).

     This Bond is subject to redemption, as a whole or in part, at the election
of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the
principal amount of the portion of the Bond being redeemed plus all accrued
interest to the Redemption Date; and (ii) the sum of the present values of all
principal and interest payments scheduled to become due after the date of such
redemption in respect of the portion of the Bond being redeemed, discounted on a
semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months)
and calculated using a discount rate equal to the sum of (1) the yield to
maturity on the U.S. Treasury security having an average life equal to the
remaining average life of the Bond and trading in the secondary market at the
price closest to par, and (2) twenty (20) basis points; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
if there is no U.S. Treasury security having an average life equal to the
remaining average life of the Bond, such discount rate shall be calculated using
a yield to maturity interpolated or extrapolated on a straight-line basis
(rounding to the nearest calendar month, if necessary) from the yields to
maturity of two U.S. Treasury securities having average lives most closely
corresponding to the remaining life of the Bond and trading in the secondary
market at the price closest to par.  The foregoing calculations shall be made in
accordance with the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture to the Indenture.  Without
duplication, any interest due and payable but unpaid on the portion of this 2001
Series A Bond being redeemed shall be paid on the Redemption Date therefor.

     The calculations set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be
determined on the third business day prior to the scheduled Redemption Date by
an investment banking institution of national standing in the United States
selected by the Company or, if the Trustee does not receive notice of such
selection at least ten days prior to a scheduled Redemption Date or if an Event
of Default under the Indenture shall have occurred and be continuing, selected
by the Trustee.

     In the event of an optional redemption of all or a portion of this Bond,
the Company shall cause notice of such redemption to be given to each Holder of
such Bonds to be redeemed at his or her address as the same shall last appear
upon the Bond Register, by first class mail at least 30 and no more than 60 days
prior to the Redemption Date; provided that so long as the Bonds to be redeemed
are held in a Book-Entry System, notice of redemption shall be given to the
registered Holders thereof at the time and in the manner required in the DTC
Letter of Representations executed among the Company, the Trustee and DTC in
connection with the issuance and sale of

                                      A-3
<PAGE>

such Bonds, and the Trustee shall not be required to give any other notice of
redemption otherwise required in the Indenture.

     In the event of an optional redemption of this Bond in part only, a new
Bond or Bonds of this series for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in
the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

     Except as otherwise provided above, this Bond is not redeemable at any time
prior to its Stated Maturity.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if not in default in respect of any of its
obligations with respect to Credit Enhancement for the Bonds, Ambac Assurance
Corporation, as the Credit Enhancer for the 2001 Series A Bonds, and not the
actual Holders of this Bond, shall be deemed to be the Holder of this Bond at
all times for the purpose of (i) giving any approval or consent to the
effectiveness of any Supplemental Indenture or any amendment, change or
modification of the Indenture which requires the written approval or consent of
Holders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the provisions of this clause (i) shall not
apply to any change which could not be made pursuant to Section 13.02 of the
Original Indenture (prior to the Release Date) or Section 10.02 of the Restated
Indenture (on and after the Release Date) without the consent of each Holder
affected thereby, or shall change or modify any of the rights or obligations of
the Trustee or any Paying Agent without its written assent thereto, and (ii)
giving any approval or consent, effecting any waiver or authorization,
exercising any remedies or taking any other action in accordance with the
provisions of Article Nine of the Original Indenture (prior to the Release Date)
or Article VI of the Restated Indenture (on and after the Release Date).

     The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Holders of this Bond under the Indenture at any
time by the Company with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of Bonds of all series at the time Outstanding affected by such
modification. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of Bonds at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the
Holders of all Bonds to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions
of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their
consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Bond shall be
conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Bond
and of any Bond issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is
made upon this Bond.

     No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Bond or of
the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal and Redemption Price of and
interest on this Bond at the times, places and rates, and in the coin or
currency, herein prescribed.

     As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set
forth, the transfer of this Bond is registrable in the Bond Register, upon
surrender of this Bond for registration of transfer at the office or agency
maintained by the Bond Registrar in the Place of Payment therefor, duly endorsed
by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to
the Company and the Bond Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Bonds of this
series, of authorized

                                      A-4
<PAGE>

denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.

     The Bonds of this series are issuable only in registered form without
coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Bonds of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of
Bonds of this series of a different authorized denomination as requested by the
Holder surrendering the same.

     No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

     Prior to due presentment of this Bond for registration of transfer, the
Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name this Bond is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, whether or not this Bond be overdue, and neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

     The Bonds of this series initially shall be held in a Book-Entry System.
While the Bonds or this series are held in the Book-Entry System, payment of the
principal and Redemption Price of and interest on such Bonds shall be made by
wire transfer of Federal Reserve funds or equivalent same-day funds, or in such
other manner as permitted by the DTC Letter of Representations executed by the
Company in connection with such series (as the same may be amended from time to
time), to the account of Cede & Co. In the event the Bonds of this series are no
longer held in the Book-Entry System, (i) interest on such Bonds shall be
payable on each Interest Payment Date by check payable to the Holder (except
that if so instructed in writing by a Holder of $1,000,000 or more of such Bonds
on or prior to the applicable Regular Record Date, such payments shall be made
by wire transfer of Federal Reserve funds on the Interest Payment Date), mailed
to the Holder at his or her address as it appears on the Bond Register on the
last day of the calendar month prior to the Interest Payment Date, or in such
other manner as such Holder and the Trustee may determine, and (ii) principal
shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of each such Bond, as the
same becomes due, at the office from which the Trustee performs the payment
function for such Bonds. Except as may be provided in the DTC Letter of
Representations with respect to Bonds of this series then held in the Book-Entry
System, payment of principal (other than through operation of the sinking fund)
shall be made only upon presentation and surrender of each such Bond, as the
same becomes due, at the office from which the Trustee performs the payment
function for such Bonds.

     All terms used in this Bond which are defined in the Indenture shall have
the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

     Unless the context suggests otherwise, all capitalized terms used herein
and not otherwise defined shall have the same meaning assigned to them in the
Indenture.

     This AMENDED AND RESTATED INDENTURE, dated as of September 1, 2001, is
between OLD DOMINION ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE, a Virginia utility aggregation
cooperative (hereinafter called the "Company"), and SUNTRUST BANK, a Georgia
banking corporation (hereinafter called the "Trustee").

                            RECITALS OF THE COMPANY

     The Company previously has entered into the Original Indenture (as defined
below), pursuant to which the Company has issued the Pre-Existing Bonds (as
defined below).  The Company intends to issue, under the Original Indenture on
or after the reference date stated in the first paragraph hereof, new bonds
(including a series of bonds, denominated "2001 Series A Bonds" authorized by
the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture to the Original Indenture).

     All bonds issued under the Original Indenture are secured by a lien on and
security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company.  However,
the Company desires that those bonds it issues under the Original Indenture on
or after the reference date hereof (including all 2001 Series A Bonds), together
with all Pre-Existing Bonds (as defined below) still Outstanding, shall become
unsecured general obligations of the Company, governed by and subject to the
terms and conditions stated in this Indenture, beginning on the Release Date (as
defined below).

     Effective as of the Release Date, this Indenture amends and restates the
Original Indenture in its entirety.  Effective on and as of the Release Date,
all Pre-Existing Bonds including all 2001 Series A Bonds, shall constitute
Obligations subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, this Indenture.

     The Company may from time to time authorize and issue the Pre-Existing
Bonds and may authorize the creation, execution and delivery from time to time
on or after the Release Date of its notes, bonds and other obligations (other
than Subordinated Debt) of substantially the tenor hereinafter provided,
issuable under this Indenture in one or more series (the "Additional
Obligations" and, collectively with the Pre-Existing Bonds, the "Obligations"),
and provide for the execution and issuance by the Company authentication and
delivery hereunder of the Additional Obligations by the Trustee from time to
time.

     All things have been done which are necessary to make the Pre-Existing
Bonds and, when duly executed and issued by the Company and authenticated and
delivered by the Trustee hereunder, the Additional Obligations, the valid
obligations of the Company, and to constitute this Indenture a valid contract
for the benefit of the holders of the Obligations, in accordance with the terms
of the Obligations and this Indenture.

     Should the Obligations be paid according to the tenor and effect thereof
when the same shall become due and payable and should the Company perform all
covenants herein contained in a timely manner, then this Indenture shall be
cancelled and surrendered in accordance with the terms hereof.

     AND IT IS HEREBY COVENANTED AND DECLARED that all the Additional
Obligations are to be authenticated and delivered, subject to the further
covenants, conditions and trusts hereinafter set forth, and the Company does
hereby covenant and agree to and with
<PAGE>

Trustee, for the equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders of the
Outstanding Obligations as follows:

Obligation. However, unless such Obligation is held in the Book-Entry System and
the DTC letter of representations executed by the Company in connection
therewith, as amended from time to time, does not permit such revocation, any
such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke by written instrument any such Act
as to its Obligation or portion of an Obligation except as otherwise provided
herein until such time as written instruments have been received by the Trustee
with respect to the requisite percentage of principal amount of Obligations for
the action contemplated such instruments; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such

                    (a)  the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in
writing to or with the Trustee at its principal corporate trust office, or (b)
the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every
purpose hereunder (except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 6.01(C) and
(E)) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, hand delivered,
express overnight or via facsimile to the Company addressed to it at Innsbrook
Corporate Center, 4201 Dominion Boulevard, Glen Allen, Virginia 23060, facsimile
(804) 747-3742, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the
Trustee by the Company.

     Section 1.04.  Notices to Holders; Waiver.

     Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such
notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided)
if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of such
Obligations, at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Obligation
Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest
date, prescribed for such notice.

     In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure
to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular
Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other
Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such

                                      13
<PAGE>

notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice,
either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of
such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but
such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action
taken in reliance upon such waiver.

     In case, by reason of the suspension of mail service or by reason of any
other cause, it shall be impossible to give such notice by mail, then such
notification as shall be specified by the Company and satisfactory to the
Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

     Section 1.05.  Form and Contents 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 they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one
such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one
or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify
or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

     Any certificate or opinion of an Officer of the Company may be based,
insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, advice
of or representations by, counsel, unless such Officer knows, or in the exercise
of reasonable care should know, that the certificate, opinion, advice or
representations with respect to the matters upon which its certificate or
opinion is based are erroneous. Any Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as
it relates to factual matters or matters of business judgment, upon a
certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an Officer or Officers of the
Company stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in
the possession of the Officers, unless such counsel knows that the certificate
or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.  Any
Opinion of Counsel may be based upon such assumptions, be subject to such
qualifications and may be stated in such language as at the time delivered is
considered in the jurisdiction whose laws are covered by such opinion to be
standard practice with respect to opinions relating to such matters.  In
addition, in giving any Opinion of Counsel, counsel may, except with respect to
any opinion required by Article V, rely upon (i) opinions of other counsel
believed by such counsel to be reliable and (ii) title insurance policies, title
insurance commitments and reports, lien search certificates and other similar
evidences of the existence of liens.

     Whenever any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more
Applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other
instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and
form one instrument.

     Wherever in this Indenture, in connection with any Application, certificate
or report to the Trustee, it is provided that the Company shall deliver any
document as a condition of the granting of such Application, or as evidence of
the Company's compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and
accuracy, at the time of the granting of such Application or at the effective
date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and
opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to
the right of the Company to have such Application granted or to the sufficiency
of such certificate or report.  Notwithstanding anything else herein to the
contrary, the validity of any action taken or Obligation issued hereunder based
upon any

                                      14
<PAGE>

Application, certificate or report shall not be affected by the truth and
accuracy of such Application, certification or report. Nothing in the
immediately preceding sentence shall, however, limit any rights or remedies
available to the Trustee or the Holders under this Indenture or at law or equity
against the Company, any officer thereof or any Person with respect to a false
or inaccurate Application, certification or report other than any remedy seeking
to invalidate the action so taken or Obligation issued.

     Whenever a clerical, typographical, inadvertent or unintentional error or
omission shall be discovered in any instrument filed with the Trustee, a new
instrument in corrected form, executed as prescribed herein for that originally
filed and which may bear the same date as the instrument originally filed, may
be substituted therefor with the same force and effect as if the instrument
originally filed had been filed in the corrected form, or in lieu of such
substitution an appropriate adjustment may be made in a like instrument filed
with the Trustee after such discovery. To the extent that action has been taken
hereunder which could not have been taken if the original instrument had been
filed in the corrected form, such action shall be validated and rendered
effective if the substituted or adjusting instrument shall indicate that any
deficiency has been fully satisfied since the filing of the original instrument.

     Section 1.06.  Compliance Certificates and Opinions.

     Upon any Application or request by the Company to the Trustee to take any
action under any provision of this Indenture, the Company shall furnish to the
Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any,
provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been
complied with and an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such
Counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with, except
that in the case of any such Application or request as to which the furnishing
of such documents is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture
relating to such particular Application or request, no additional certificate or
opinion need be furnished.

     Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or
covenant provided for in this Indenture (other than certificates provided
pursuant to Section 11.10 hereof) shall include:

                    (a)  a statement that each individual signing such
certificate or opinion has read such condition or covenant and the definitions
herein relating thereto;

                    (b)  a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the
examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in
such certificate or opinion are based;

                    (c)  a statement that, in the opinion of each such
individual, such individual has made such examination or investigation as is
necessary to enable him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or
not such condition or covenant 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 1.07.  Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.

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.

     In case any provision in this Indenture or in any Obligation shall be

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 the Obligations, express or implied, shall
give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder
and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim
under this Indenture.

     Section 1.12.  Governing Law.

     This Indenture and the Obligations shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except as otherwise
provided in a Supplemental Indenture authorizing Obligations of any series or
maturity within a series for which Credit Enhancement is being provided, if not
in default in respect of any of its obligations with respect to Credit
Enhancement for such Obligations, the Credit Enhancer for, and not the actual
Holders of, such Obligations, shall be deemed to be the Holder of such
Obligations at all times for the purpose of (i) giving any approval or consent
to the effectiveness of any Supplemental Indenture or any amendment, change or
modification of the Indenture which requires the written approval or consent of
Holders of such Obligations; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the provisions of this
paragraph (i) shall not apply to any change which could not be made pursuant to
Section 10.02 without the consent of each Holder of Obligations affected
thereby, and (ii) giving any notice, approval or consent, effecting any waiver
or authorization, exercising any remedies, giving any direction or taking any

     Except as specified in a Pre-Existing Obligation or a Supplemental
Indenture, if the specified date for the making of any payment or the last date
for performance of any act or the exercising of any right, as provided in this
Indenture, shall be a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday or a day on which
banking institutions in the city in which is located the office from which the
Trustee performs the functions to which such act or right relates are authorized
by law to remain closed, such payment may be made or act performed or right
exercised on the next succeeding day which is not one of the foregoing days
without additional interest and with the same force and effect as if made,
performed or exercised on the specified date for such payment.

     Section 1.15.  Acceptance of Trust by Trustee.

     The Trustee accepts the trusts in this Indenture declared and provided,
upon the terms and conditions herein set forth.

     Section 1.16.  Maturity of Obligations.

     The Stated Maturity of the Pre-Existing Bonds is set forth in the Pre-
Existing Bonds or the Supplemental Indenture establishing the series to which
such Pre-Existing Bonds belong.  The Stated Maturity of Additional Obligations
authorized pursuant to Article IV and governed by this Indenture shall be as
provided in Supplemental Indentures adopted in accordance with and pursuant to
Sections 3.03 and Article X.

     Section 1.17.  Investment of Cash Held by Trustee.

     Any cash held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent under any provision of
this Indenture shall, except as otherwise provided in Article V and Section
6.04, at the request of the Company evidenced by a Company Request be invested
or reinvested as designated by the Company, and, unless an Event of Default
shall exist, any interest or other earnings on such investments shall be
promptly paid over to the Company as received free and clear of any lien.  Such
investments shall be held subject to the same provisions hereof as was the cash
used to purchase the same, but upon a like request of the Company shall be sold,
in whole or in designated part, and the proceeds of such sale shall be held
subject to the same provisions hereof as was the cash used to purchase the
investments so sold.

     Section 1.18.  Principal Amount of Certain Obligations.

     At any point in time, the principal amount of an Obligation in any form
other than a bond shall not include any amount not then advanced and outstanding
thereunder.  The principal amount of any Obligation evidencing an assumption by
the Company of all or a part of another obligation shall be the principal amount
of the other obligation, or the portion thereof, assumed pursuant to such
Obligation.  The principal amount of such Obligation shall be reduced as the
principal amount of such Obligation (or the obligation it evidences an
assumption of) is paid or otherwise reduced.  The principal amount of such
Obligation may be evidenced from time to time by an Officers' Certificate
delivered to the Trustee and the Holder of such Obligation.  In the absence of
any timely objection by the Holder to the principal amount of such Obligation
set forth in such Officers' Certificate, the Trustee may conclusively rely on
such Officers' Certificate. Following any timely objection by the Holder, the
Trustee may require such other evidence of the principal amount of such
Obligation as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee in its sole discretion.

                                OBLIGATION FORM

     Section 2.01.  Forms of Additional Obligations Generally.

     Additional Obligations of each series shall be in substantially the form
set forth in the Supplemental Indenture creating such series or in a Board
Resolution establishing such series and delivered to the Trustee, or in an
Officers' Certificate pursuant to a Supplemental Indenture or Board Resolution
delivered to the Trustee, in each case, with 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 endorsements placed thereon as may be
required to comply with the rules of any securities exchange or as may,
consistently herewith, be determined by the Officers executing such Additional
Obligations, as evidenced by their execution of such Additional Obligations.
The Place of Payment of Additional Obligations of each series shall be set forth
in such Additional Obligations.  Any portion of the text of any Additional
Obligation may be set forth on the reverse or subsequent pages thereof, with an
appropriate reference thereto on the face of the Additional Obligation if
desired.  Additional Obligations may be printed, lithographed, typewritten,
mimeographed or otherwise produced.

     Section 2.02.  Form of Trustee's Certificate of Authentication for Pre-
Existing Bonds.

     The Trustee's certificate of authentication for Pre-Existing Bonds shall be
in substantially the following form:

          This is one of the Bonds referred to in and secured by the
          Indenture of Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated as of May 1,
          1992, by and between Old Dominion Electric Cooperative and
          Crestar Bank, predecessor to SunTrust Bank, as trustee, as
          amended (the "Original Indenture"). This now constitutes
          one of the unsecured Obligations referred to in and
          entitled to the benefits of the Amended and Restated
          Indenture, dated as of September 1, 2001, between Old
          Dominion Electric Cooperative and SunTrust Bank, as
          trustee, which amended and restated the Original Indenture
          in its entirety.

                                     SUNTRUST BANK,
                                     as Trustee


                                     By: ____________________________

     Section 2.03.  Form of Trustee's Certificate of Authentication for
Additional Obligations.

     The Trustee's certificate of authentication for Additional Obligations
shall be in substantially the following form.

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

                              SUNTRUST BANK, as Trustee


                              By: _____________________________
                                  Authorized Signatory


                                  ARTICLE III

                                THE OBLIGATIONS

     Section 3.01.  Terms and Forms of Pre-Existing Bonds.

     Authentication of the Pre-Existing Bonds shall be in substantially the form
set forth in Section 2.02 and may be either on the Pre-Existing Bonds or on an
allonge to be affixed to such Pre-Existing Bonds.  The Pre-Existing Bonds shall
be in the forms of such instruments as are delivered to the Trustee for
authentication under the Original Indenture.  The terms and conditions of the
Pre-Existing Bonds, including series designations, principal amounts, maximum
aggregate principal amount (if any), maturity dates, interest rates and payment
and redemption provisions, shall be as provided for therein or in the
Supplemental Indenture establishing the series to which such Pre-Existing Bonds
belong.

     Section 3.02.  General Limitations; Issuable in Series.

                    (a)  Any increase in the outstanding principal amount of any
Pre-Existing Bond (other than an advance under a Pre-Existing Bond held by a
Credit Enhancer) shall be deemed an issuance of an Additional Obligation and
shall, therefore, be subject to satisfying the conditions for the issuance of
Additional Obligations provided in Article IV.

                    (b)  The aggregate principal amount of Additional
Obligations which may be authenticated and delivered and Outstanding under this
Indenture is not limited, except as provided in Article IV and the provisions of
any Supplemental Indenture creating any series of Additional Obligations and
except as may be limited by law.

                    (c)  The Additional Obligations may be issued in series as
from time to time authorized by the Board of Directors.

                                      19
<PAGE>

     With respect to the Additional Obligations of any particular series, the
Company may incorporate in or add to the general title of such Additional
Obligations any words, letters or figures designed to distinguish that series.

     Section 3.03.  Terms of Particular Series.

     Each series of Additional Obligations shall be created by a Supplemental
Indenture authorized by the Board of Directors and establishing the terms and
provisions of such series of Additional Obligations or the method by which such
terms and conditions shall be established.  The several series of Additional
Obligations may differ as between series and may differ from the Pre-Existing
Bonds and as between series in any respect not in conflict with the provisions
of this Indenture and as may be prescribed in the Supplemental Indenture
creating such series; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company may not issue
Additional Obligations which constitute Subordinated Debt.

     The Company may, at the time of the creation of any series of Additional
Obligations or at any time thereafter, make, and the Additional Obligations of
such series may contain, provision for:

                    (a)  the exchange or conversion of the Additional
Obligations of such series, at the option of the Holders thereof, for or into
new Additional Obligations of a different series or other securities;

                    (b)  a sinking, amortization, improvement or other analogous
fund or the other payment of principal by installments or otherwise;

                    (c)  limiting the aggregate principal amount of the
Additional Obligations of such series;

                    (d)  exchanging Additional Obligations of such series, at
the option of the Holders thereof, for other Additional Obligations of the same
series of the same aggregate principal amount of a different authorized kind or
authorized denomination or denominations;

                    (e)  the authentication of Additional Obligations of such
series by the Authenticating Agent;

                    (f)  providing for the issuance of Additional Obligations of
such series in bearer or book-entry form;

                    (g)  specifying redemption or prepayment terms and
procedures with respect to such series;

                    (h)  specifying business days, grace periods, covenants,
events of default, remedies or other provisions with respect to such series; and

                    (i)  any other terms of the Additional Obligations of such
series, or any maturity thereof, not inconsistent with the provisions of this
Indenture;

all upon such terms as the Board of Directors may determine as evidenced by a
Board Resolution or as may be set forth in the Supplemental Indenture creating
the series of Additional Obligations.

                                      20
<PAGE>

     With respect to Additional Obligations of a series subject to a Periodic
Offering, the Supplemental Indenture or the Board Resolution, or Officers'
Certificate pursuant to the Supplemental Indenture or Board Resolution, as the
case may be, which establishes such series may provide general terms or
parameters for Additional Obligations of such series and specify procedures,
acceptable to the Trustee, by which such specific terms are to be established
(which procedures may provide for authentication and delivery pursuant to oral
or electronic instructions from the Company or any agent or agents thereof,
which oral instructions are to be promptly confirmed electronically or in
writing).

     Section 3.04.  Denominations.

     Additional Obligations of each series shall be issuable in such
denominations as shall be provided in the provisions of the Supplemental
Indenture creating such series. In the absence of any such provision with
respect to Additional Obligations of any particular series, the Additional
Obligations of such series shall be of the denomination of $1,000 or any
integral multiple thereof.  Additional Obligations may be in the form of bonds,
notes, debentures, guarantees or any other undertaking for the payment of money.

     Section 3.05.  Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

     Additional Obligations shall be executed on behalf of the Company by any
Officer and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The
signature of any of these Officers on the Additional Obligations may be manual
or facsimile.  Additional Obligations bearing the manual or facsimile signatures
of individuals who were at any time the proper Officers of the Company shall
bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall
have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of
such Additional Obligations or shall not have held such offices at the date of
such Additional Obligations.

     At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this
Indenture, the Company may deliver Additional Obligations executed by the
Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the
authentication and delivery of such Additional Obligations, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver such Additional Obligations as in this Indenture
provided and not otherwise.

     All Additional Obligations shall be dated as provided in the Supplemental
Indenture creating such Additional Obligations or in the absence thereof, the
date of their authentication.

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

     Section 3.06.  Temporary Obligations.

     Pending the preparation of definitive Additional Obligations, the Company
may execute, and upon Company Request the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, temporary Additional Obligations which are printed, lithographed,
typewritten, mimeographed, copied or otherwise produced or

                                      21
<PAGE>

reproduced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the
definitive Additional Obligations in lieu of which they are issued, and with
such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as
the Officers executing such Additional Obligations may determine, as evidenced
by their execution of such Additional Obligations.

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

     Section 3.07.  Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

     The Company shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or agencies
maintained by the Trustee a register (herein sometimes referred to as the
"Obligation Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it
may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration of Obligations and
registration of transfers and exchanges of Obligations. The Trustee is hereby
appointed "Obligation Registrar" for the purpose of registering Obligations and
transfers and exchanges of Obligations as herein provided.

     Upon surrender for transfer of any Obligation at the office or agency of
the Trustee in a Place of Payment therefor (or delivery of other evidence
satisfactory to the Trustee of the transfer of an Obligation), the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Obligations of the same
series and maturity, of any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate
principal amount.  If such Obligation is not surrendered for transfer, upon
delivery to the Trustee of such evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of a
transfer, the Obligation Registrar shall register such transfer on the
Obligation Register.

     Upon surrender for exchange of any Obligation at the office or agency of
the Trustee, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in the name of the Holder exchanging such Obligation, one or more new
Obligations of the same series of any authorized denomination and of a like
aggregate principal amount and maturity.

     All Obligations surrendered upon registration of any exchange or transfer
provided for in this Indenture shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee and
thereafter the Trustee shall retain such Obligations or destroy such Obligations
and deliver a certificate of destruction to the Company.

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

     Every Obligation presented or surrendered for registration of transfer,
exchange or discharge from registration shall (if so required by the Company or
the Obligation Registrar) be duly

                                      22
<PAGE>

endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Company and the Obligation Registrar duly executed, by the
Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing.

     No service charge shall be made for any registration, discharge from
registration, registration of transfer or exchange of Obligations, but the
Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of
transfer or exchange of Obligations, other than exchanges under Section 3.06,
10.06 or 12.07 not involving any transfer.

     Except as provided in a Supplemental Indenture and with respect to Pre-
Existing Bonds, the Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange any Obligation of any series during a period beginning
at the opening of business fifteen (15) days before the day of the mailing of a
notice of redemption of Obligations of such series under Section 12.04 and
ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to register
the transfer of or exchange any Obligation so selected for redemption in whole
or in part, except the unredeemed portion of an Obligation being redeemed in
part.

     Section 3.08.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Obligations.

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

     In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Obligation has become
or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may,
instead of issuing a new Obligation, pay all amounts to become due and payable
with respect to such Obligation.

     Upon the issuance of any new Obligation 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 expense (including
the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

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

     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 Obligations.

                                      23

     Section 3.09.  Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

     Interest on any Obligation of any series which is payable, and is
punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid
to the Person in whose name that Obligation (or one or more Predecessor
Obligations) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date
for such interest as specified herein or in the provisions of the Supplemental
Indenture creating such series.

     Any interest on any Obligation of any series which is payable, but is not
punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein
called "Defaulted Interest") shall be payable as provided in such Obligation or,
if not so provided, shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the
relevant Regular Record Date solely by virtue of such Holder having been such
Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election
in each case, as provided in subsection (A) or (B) below:

                    (a)  The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted
Interest on the Obligations of any series to the Persons in whose names such
Obligations (or their respective Predecessor Obligations) 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 Obligation and the date of the proposed payment (which date shall be
such as will enable the Trustee to comply with the next sentence hereof), 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
provided in this subsection. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record
Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than
fifteen (15) days nor less than ten (10) days prior to the date of the proposed
payment and not less than ten (10) days after the receipt by the Trustee of the
notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of
such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company,
shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the
Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each
Holder of an Obligation of such series at its address as it appears in the
Obligation Register not less than ten (10) days prior to such Special Record
Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special
Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest
shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Obligations of such series (or
their respective Predecessor Obligations) are registered on such Special Record
Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following subsection B.

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

                                      24

     Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Obligation
delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange
for or in lieu of any other Obligation shall carry all the rights to interest
accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Obligation
and each such Obligation shall bear interest from such date so that neither gain
nor loss in interest shall result from such transfer, exchange or substitution.

     Section 3.10.  Persons Deemed Owners.

     Subject to the provisions of Section 1.13, prior to due presentment of such
Obligation 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 Obligation
is registered as the owner of such Obligation for the purpose of receiving
payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.09)
interest on such Obligation and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or
not such Obligation be overdue, and, to the extent permitted by law, neither the
Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

     Section 3.11.  Cancellation.

     All Obligations surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer, exchange or
conversion, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be promptly cancelled by it,
and, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, shall be delivered to
the Trustee and, if not already cancelled, shall be promptly cancelled by it.
The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any
Obligations previously authenticated and delivered hereunder, which the Company
may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Obligations so delivered
shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Obligation shall be authenticated
in lieu of or in exchange for any Obligation cancelled as provided in this
Section, except as expressly provided by this Indenture.  All cancelled
Obligations held by the Trustee shall be destroyed and thereafter the Trustee
shall deliver a certificate of destruction to the Company.

     Section 3.12.  CUSIP Numbers.

     The Company in issuing Obligations may use "CUSISP" numbers (if then
generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers in notices
of redemption as a convenience to Holders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any such
notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such
numbers either printed on the Obligations or as contained in any notice of a
redemption and that reliance may be placed only on other identification numbers
printed on the Obligations, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any
defect in or omission of such numbers.  The Company will promptly notify the
Trustee of any change in the "CUSIP" numbers.

                                  ARTICLE IV

             AUTHENTICATION AND DELIVERY OF ADDITIONAL OBLIGATIONS

     Additional Obligations of any one or more series, or within a series, may
from time to time be executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee for
authentication and thereupon the same shall be authenticated and delivered by
the Trustee upon Company Request, upon receipt in

                                      25
<PAGE>

each case by the Trustee of the following upon or prior to the date of the
initial issuance of Additional Obligations of such series:

                     (a)  A Board Resolution authorizing and requesting the
authentication and delivery under this Article from time to time or at any time
of a specified principal amount of Additional Obligations of a designated
series;

                     (b)  An Officers' Certificate, dated within thirty (30)
days of the date of the relevant Application for the authentication and delivery
of the initial issuance of such Additional Obligations and stating that all
conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the
authentication and delivery of such Additional Obligations have been complied
with (and, in the event such Additional Obligations are subject to a Periodic
Offering, that the statements made in such Officers' Certificate shall be deemed
remade at the time of each subsequent authentication and delivery of such
Additional Obligations); and

                     (c)  An Opinion of Counsel:

               (i)   specifying the certificate or other evidence that shows the
authorization, approval or consent of or to the issuance by the Company of the
Additional Obligations then applied for by any Federal, state or other
governmental regulatory agency whose authorization, approval or consent is at
the time required to be obtained by the Company having jurisdiction in the
premises, or stating that no such authorization, approval or consent is
required;

               (ii)  stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this
Indenture relating to the authentication and delivery of the issuance of such
Additional Obligations have been complied with; and

               (iii) stating that such Additional Obligations, when executed by
the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and when issued by
the Company (and, in the event of Additional Obligations subject to a Periodic
Offering, when the terms of such Additional Obligations have been established as
provided in the manner contemplated by this Indenture or the Supplemental
Indenture under which such Additional Obligations are established), will be the
legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance
with their terms and the terms of this Indenture and entitled to the benefits of
this Indenture equally and ratably with all other Outstanding Obligations.

                                   ARTICLE V

                                  DEFEASANCE

     Section 5.01.   Termination of Company's Obligations.

                     (a)  The Company may terminate its obligations under the
Obligations and this Indenture if all Obligations previously authenticated and
delivered (other than destroyed, lost or stolen Obligations which have been
replaced or paid or Obligations for whose payment money or securities has
theretofore been held in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company, as provided
in Section 5.03) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and the
Company has paid all sums payable by it hereunder and thereunder; or

                                      26
<PAGE>

                     (b)  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.01, the
Company may terminate its obligations under any Obligations and all of its
obligations under this Indenture to or for the benefit of the Holders of such
Obligations, if:

               (i)   the Company has (a) in case any of such Obligations are to
be redeemed on any date prior to their Stated Maturity, given to the Trustee
irrevocable instructions to give as provided in Article XII notice of redemption
of such Obligations (other than Obligations which have been purchased by the
Trustee at the direction of the Company as hereinafter provided prior to the
giving of such notice of redemption), and (b) irrevocably deposited or caused to
be deposited with the Trustee or Paying Agent and conveyed all right, title and
interest for the benefit of the Holders of such Obligations, under the terms of
an irrevocable trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee
and any such Paying Agent, as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the
Holders of such Obligations for that purpose, money or Defeasance Securities
maturing as to principal and interest in such amounts and at such times as are
sufficient (in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of Independent
Accountants expressed in a certificate signed by such firm and delivered to the
Trustee), without consideration of any reinvestment of such interest, to pay
principal or Redemption Price (if applicable) of, and interest due or to become
due on such Obligations (other than destroyed, lost or stolen Obligations which
have been replaced or paid or Obligations for whose payment money or securities
has theretofore been held in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company as
provided in Section 5.03) on or prior to the Redemption Date or Stated Maturity
thereof, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and
such Obligations; PROVIDED, that the Trustee or Paying Agent shall have been
irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the proceeds of such Defeasance
Securities to the payment of such principal, Redemption Price and interest with
respect to such Obligations;

               (ii)  no Event of Default shall exist on the date of such deposit
or shall occur as a result of such deposit;

               (iii) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee either (i)
a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service and directed to the Trustee to the
effect that the Holders of such Obligations will not recognize income, gain or
loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the Company's exercise of
its option under this subsection 5.01(B) 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 option had not been exercised, or (ii) an Opinion of
Counsel from nationally recognized tax counsel not an employee of the Company to
the same effect as the ruling described in paragraph (i) of this subsection;

               (iv)  the Company has paid or caused to be paid all sums then due
from the Company hereunder and under the Obligations;

               (v)   the Company has delivered an Opinion of Counsel stating
that the deposit shall not result in the Company, the Trustee or the trust
becoming or being deemed to be an "investment company" under the Investment
Company Act of 1940;

               (vi)  the Company has delivered an Opinion of Counsel from a
nationally recognized law firm stating that the Holders of such Obligations (or
the Trustee for the benefit of such Holders) shall have a perfected security
interest under applicable law in the money or Defeasance Securities so
deposited; and

                                      27
<PAGE>

               (vii)  the Company has delivered to the Trustee and any Paying
Agent an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that the
conditions set forth in subsections (1) through (6) above have been complied
with. After any such irrevocable deposit, the Trustee upon Company Request shall
acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Company's obligations under such
Obligations and of the Company's obligations to or for the benefit of the
Holders of such Obligations under this Indenture, except for those surviving
obligations specified below.

                      (c)  Notwithstanding the satisfaction of the conditions
set forth in subsection (B) with respect to any Obligations, the Company's and
the Trustee's obligations to or for the Holders of such Obligations or to the
Trustee under Sections 3.07, 3.08, 5.02, 5.03, 5.04, 7.07, 7.10, 8.02, 11.01,
11.02 and 11.03 shall survive until such Obligations are no longer Outstanding.
Thereafter, only the Company's obligations under Sections 5.03, 5.04 and 7.07
shall survive with respect to such Holders or the Trustee. If and when a ruling
from the Internal Revenue Service or Opinion of Counsel referred to in paragraph
(B)(3) is able to be provided specifically without regard to, and not in
reliance upon, the continuance of the Company's obligations to such Holders
under Section 11.01, then the Company's obligations to such Holders under such
Section 11.01 shall cease upon delivery to the Trustee of such ruling or Opinion
of Counsel and compliance with the other conditions precedent provided for
herein relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect
to such Holders.

                      (d)  The Trustee or Paying Agent shall, if so directed by
the Company (i) prior to the Stated Maturity of Obligations in respect of which
a deposit has been made under paragraph (B)(1) above which are not to be
redeemed prior to their Stated Maturity or (ii) prior to the giving of the
notice of redemption referred to in paragraph (B)(1) above with respect to any
Obligations in respect of which a deposit has been made under paragraph (B)(1)
which are to be redeemed on a date prior to their Stated Maturity, apply moneys
deposited with the Trustee in respect of such Obligations and redeem or sell
Defeasance Securities so deposited with the Trustee and apply the proceeds
thereof to the purchase of such Obligations and the Trustee shall immediately
thereafter cancel all such Obligations so purchased; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
moneys and Defeasance Securities remaining on deposit with the Trustee or Paying
Agent after the purchase and cancellation of such Obligations shall be
sufficient to pay when due the principal or Redemption Price (if applicable) of,
and interest due or to become due on, all Obligations in respect of which such
moneys and Defeasance Securities are being held by the Trustee or Paying Agent
on or prior to the Redemption Date or Stated Maturity thereof, as the case may
be. In the event that on any date as a result of any purchases and cancellations
of Obligations as provided in this subsection the total amount of moneys and
Defeasance Securities remaining on deposit with the Trustee or Paying Agent
under this Section is in excess of the total amount that would have been
required to be deposited with the Trustee or Paying Agent on such date under
paragraph (B)(1) in respect of the remaining Obligations for which such moneys
and Defeasance Securities are being held, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall, if
requested by the Company and upon receipt by the Trustee or Paying Agent of a
certificate of a nationally recognized firm of Independent Accountants setting
forth the calculation of such excess, pay the amount of such excess to the
Company free and clear of any trust, lien, security interest, pledge or
assignment securing such Obligations or otherwise existing under this Indenture.

                      (e)  If the requirements of this Section 5.01 have been
satisfied with respect to all Obligations theretofore Outstanding, then, upon
Company Request, the rights and interest

                                      28
<PAGE>

created hereby shall become null and void and be cancelled and surrendered
(except as otherwise provided herein).

     Section 5.02.  Application of Deposited Money and Money From Defeasance
Securities.

     Money or Defeasance Securities deposited with the Trustee or the Paying
Agent pursuant to Section 5.01 shall constitute a separate trust fund for the
benefit of persons entitled thereto. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.03,
the Trustee or Paying Agent shall hold in trust money or Defeasance Securities
deposited with it pursuant to Section 5.01, and shall apply the deposited money
and the money from Defeasance Securities to the payment of the principal or
Redemption Price (if applicable) of, and interest on, the Obligations in respect
of which such money and Defeasance Securities are deposited. If money deposited
with the Trustee under this Article V, or money received from principal or
interest payments on Defeasance Securities deposited with the Trustee under this
Article V, will be required at a later date for payment of the principal or
Redemption Price (if applicable) of, and interest on, the Obligations in respect
of which such money and Defeasance Securities are deposited, such money shall,
at the written investment direction of the Company, to the extent practicable,
be reinvested in Defeasance Securities maturing at times and in amounts that,
together with other moneys so deposited or to be generated by other Defeasance
Securities, will be sufficient to pay when due the principal or Redemption Price
(if applicable) of, and interest to become due on, such Obligations, and the
interest earned from such reinvestments shall be paid over to the Company, as
received by the Trustee, free and clear of any trust otherwise existing under
this Indenture.

     Section 5.03.  Repayment to Company.

     Subject to Section 5.01, to the extent any Defeasance Securities deposited
with the Trustee or Paying Agent under this Article V, or cash received from
principal or interest payments on such Defeasance Securities, will not be
required for the payment of the principal or Redemption Price (if applicable)
of, and interest on, the Obligations in respect of which such money and
Defeasance Securities are deposited, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall upon
Company Request accompanied by a certificate of a nationally recognized firm of
Independent Accountants calculating such excess, promptly pay and deliver to the
Company upon Company Request any such Defeasance Securities and cash, and
thereupon the Trustee or Paying Agent shall be relieved from any liability with
respect thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, the Trustee and the Paying
Agent shall pay to the Company upon Company Request any money held by them for
the payment of principal, Redemption Price or interest that remains unclaimed
for two years after the date such payment was due.  After payment to the
Company, Holders entitled to such money must look to the Company for payment as
general creditors unless an applicable law designates another person, and all
liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money shall
cease.

     Section 5.04.  Reinstatement.

     If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Defeasance
Securities in accordance with Section 5.01 and the second sentence of Section
5.02 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of
any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise
prohibiting such application, the Company's obligations under this Indenture to
or for the benefit of the Holders of Obligations for whose benefit such money or
Defeasance Securities were deposited and under such Obligations shall be revived
and reinstated as

                                      29
<PAGE>

though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 5.01 until such time as the
Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money and Defeasance
Securities in accordance with Section 5.01; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the
Company has made any payment of interest on or principal of any Obligations
because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated
to the rights of the Holders of such Obligations to receive such payment from
the money or Defeasance Securities held therefor by the Trustee or Paying Agent.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Indenture, during
any period in which the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable, for any of the
reasons described in the first sentence of this Section, to apply in accordance
with Section 5.01 and the second sentence of Section 5.02 for the benefit of the
Holders of any Obligations any money or proceeds from Defeasance Securities
deposited with the Trustee with respect to such Obligations pursuant to Section
5.01, the Company's right to obtain any excess funds from such moneys or
proceeds, and the Company's subrogation rights arising hereunder with respect to
such Obligations, shall be suspended.

                                  ARTICLE VI

                        EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

     Section 6.01.  Events of Default.

     "Events of Default," wherever used herein, means any one of the following

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):

                    (a)  default in the payment of any interest upon any

default for a period of forty-five (45) days or such other period provided for
in such Obligation or in the Supplemental Indenture under which such Obligation
is issued; or

                    (b)  default in the payment of the principal of (or premium,

specifically dealt with), and continuance of such default or breach for a period
of forty-five (45) 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 ten percent (10%) in principal amount of the Outstanding
Obligations, 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

                    (d)  a failure to pay any portion of the principal when due
and payable (other than amounts due and payable on acceleration) under any bond,
debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness for money borrowed by the
Company, other than any indebtedness evidenced by an Obligation, whether such
indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created, which failure shall

                                      30
<PAGE>

have resulted in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable
prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable in an
aggregate principal amount exceeding $10,000,000 without such indebtedness
having been discharged or such acceleration having been rescinded or annulled
within a period of ten (10) days after such acceleration; or

                    (e)  the rendering against the Company of a judgment for the
payment of moneys in excess of the sum of $10,000,000 and the continuance of
such judgment unsatisfied and without stay of execution thereon for a period of
forty-five (45) days after the entry of such judgment, or the continuance of
such judgment unsatisfied for a period of forty-five (45) days after the
termination of any stay of execution thereon entered within such first mentioned
forty-five (45) days; but only in either case if such judgment shall have been
continued unstayed or unsatisfied for a period of ten (10) days after written
notice of default hereunder shall have been given, by registered or certified
mail, to the Company by the Trustee, or to the Company and the Trustee by the
Holders of not less than ten percent (10%) in principal amount of the
Obligations Outstanding; or

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

                    (g)  the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or
proceeding under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency,

adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the entry of a
decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or
proceeding under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or
insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a petition or
answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable Federal
or state law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the
appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator,
assignee, trustee, sequestrator or 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.

     Section 6.02.  Acceleration of Maturity Rescission and Annulment.

     If an Event of Default exists, then and in every such case the Trustee or
the Holders of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in principal amount of
the Obligations Outstanding may declare the principal (or, if the Obligations of
any series are Original Issue Discount Obligations, such portion of the
principal amount of such Original Issue Discount Obligations as may be specified
in the terms of such series) of all the Obligations to be due and payable
immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee, if given
by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal shall become
immediately due and payable.

                                      31
<PAGE>

     At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made, but
before any judgment or decree for payment of money due on any Obligations has
been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Obligations (unless
such declaration has been made under Section 6.17 only with respect to a
particular series of Outstanding Obligations, in which event only a majority in
principal amount of the Obligations of such series) may, by written notice to
the Company and the Trustee, rescind and annul such declaration and its
consequences if:

     A.   the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to
pay

          (i)    all overdue installments of interest on all Obligations,

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

          (iii)  to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest
upon overdue installments of interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor
in such Obligations,

          (iv)   all late payment charges or fees, if any, prescribed in such
Obligations, and

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

                 (b)  all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the
principal of Obligations which have become due solely by such declaration of
acceleration, have been cured or have been waived as provided in Section 6.13.

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

     Section 6.03.  Covenant to Pay Trustee Amounts Due on Obligations and Right
of Trustee to Judgment.

     The Company covenants that, if:

                 (a)  default is made in the payment of any interest on any
Obligation when such interest becomes due and payable, and such default
continues for the period prescribed in subsection 6.01(A), or

                 (b)  default is made in the payment of the principal of (or
premium, if any, on) any Obligation at its Maturity and, if applicable, such
default continues for the period prescribed in subsection 6.01(B),

then upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Holders of such Obligations, the whole amount then due and
payable on such Obligations (including any amount accelerated pursuant to
Section 6.02) for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, with interest at
the respective rate or rates prescribed therefor in the Obligations on overdue
principal (and premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest
is legally

                                      32
<PAGE>

enforceable, on overdue installments of interest; and, in addition thereto, all
late payment charges and fees, if any, prescribed in such Obligations and such
further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of
collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. If the Company fails to pay
such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as
trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled to sue for and recover judgment
against the Company and any other obligor on the Obligations for the whole
amount so due and unpaid and exercise such other rights and remedies as may be
provided by law or otherwise available to the Trustee.

     Section 6.04.  Application of Money Collected.

     Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be
applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and,
except as otherwise provided in an Obligation or Supplemental Indenture creating
the series to which such Obligation belongs, in case of the distribution of such
money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon
presentation of the Obligations and the notation thereon of the payment if only
partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

               (a) First: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under
Section 7.07;

               (b) Second: To the payment of the interest, premium, if any, and
principal or Redemption Price then due on the Obligations, as follows:

          (i) unless the principal of all of the Obligations shall have become
due and payable,

               First: Interest - To the payment to the Persons entitled thereto
          of all installments of interest then due (and, to the extent that
          payment of such interest is legally enforceable, interest on overdue
          installments of interest) on Outstanding Indenture Obligations in the
          order of the maturity of such installments, together with accrued and
          unpaid interest on the Obligations theretofore called for redemption
          or prepayment, and, if the amount available shall not be sufficient to
          pay in full any installment or installments  maturing on the same
          date, then to the payment thereof ratably, according to the amounts
          due thereon, to the persons entitled thereto, without  any
          discrimination or preference; and

               Second: Principal, Premium or Redemption Price - To the payment
          to the Persons entitled thereto of the unpaid principal and premium,

Outstanding Indenture Obligations without preference or priority of principal
and premium, if any, over interest or of interest over principal and premium, if
any, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest,

fund or other collective investment fund registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, whose shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933,

     Section 6.05.  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
Obligations or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their
creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Obligations
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, premium or interest) shall be
entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

               (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal
(and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the
Outstanding Indenture Obligations and to file such other papers or documents as
may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee
(including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed
in such judicial proceeding, and

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

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

                                      34
<PAGE>

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

     Section 6.06. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Obligations.

     All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Obligations may
be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the
Obligations 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. Any recovery of judgment shall, after provision
for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of
the Holders of the Obligations in respect of which such judgment has been
recovered.

     Section 6.07. Limitation on Suits.

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

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

               (b) the Holders of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in
principal amount of the Outstanding Obligations 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 (other than the United States of
America or its agencies or instrumentalities) 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 sixty (60) days after its receipt of such
notice, request and offer of indemnity, if any is required pursuant to
subsection (C) above, has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

               (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been
given to the Trustee during such sixty (60) day period by the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Obligations;

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Obligations
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 Obligations, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or
preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture,
except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of
all Outstanding Indenture Obligations.

     Section 6.08. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium
and Interest.

                                      35
<PAGE>

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

     Section 6.09.  Restoration of Positions.

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

     Section 6.10.  Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

     Except as otherwise provided in Sections 3.08, 5.03 and 11.03 with respect
to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Obligations or the payment of certain moneys, no right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be
exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the
extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and
remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or
otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other
appropriate right or remedy.

     Section 6.11.  Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

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

     Section 6.12.  Control by Holders.

     The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Obligations shall have the right, during the continuance of an Event of Default:

               (a) to require the Trustee to proceed to enforce this Indenture,
either by judicial proceedings for the enforcement of the payment of the
Obligations or otherwise; and

               (b) 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 upon the Trustee hereunder, PROVIDED that:

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

                                      36
<PAGE>

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

          (iii)     the Trustee shall not determine that the action so directed
would be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not taking part in such direction.

     Section 6.13.  Waiver of Past Defaults.

     Before any judgment or decree for payment of money due has been obtained by
the Trustee as provided in this Article, the Holders of not less than a majority
in principal amount of the Outstanding Obligations may, by Act of such Holders
delivered to the Trustee and the Company, on behalf of the Holders of all the
Obligations waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a
default:

                    (a) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any)
or interest on any Obligation, or

                    (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under
Article X cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of
each Outstanding Obligation affected.

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

     Section 6.14.  Undertaking for Costs.

     All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Obligation by
its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its
discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under
this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such
suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in
its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
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, by the United States of America (or its agencies or instrumentalities)
or by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than ten
percent (10%) in principal amount of the Outstanding Obligations, or to any suit
instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of
(or premium, if any) or interest on any Obligation on or after the respective
Stated Maturities expressed in such Obligation (or, in the case of redemption or
acceleration, on or after the Redemption Date or date of acceleration).

     Section 6.15.  Remedies Subject to Applicable Laws.

     All rights, remedies and powers provided by this Article may be exercised
only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable
provision of law, and all the provisions of this Article are intended to be
subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be controlling
and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this
Indenture

                                      37
<PAGE>

invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be registered or filed under the
provisions of any applicable law.

     Section 6.16.  Principal Amount of Original Issue Discount Obligation.

     The principal amount of an Original Issue Discount Obligation shall, for
purposes of voting, directing the time, place or manner or exercising any
remedy, applying moneys, authenticating and delivering Additional Obligations,
and for all other purposes hereunder, be determined in the manner specified in
the Supplemental Indenture establishing the series to which such Original Issue
Discount Obligation belongs.

     Section 6.17.  Default Not Affecting All Series of Obligations.

     In case an Event of Default affecting the rights of the Holders of
Obligations of any one or more series which does not similarly affect the rights
of Holders of all other series of Obligations at the time Outstanding
(including, without limitation, an Event of Default specified in a Supplemental
Indenture creating a series of Obligations) shall have occurred and be
continuing, then whatever action (including, without limitation, the
acceleration of Obligations under Section 6.02, the giving of any request or
direction to the Trustee under Section 6.07 or 6.12 or the waiver of any default
under Section 6.13) may or shall be taken under this Article upon the occurrence
of such Event of Default by or upon the request of the Holders of a specified
percentage in principal amount of the Obligations then Outstanding, may or shall
be taken in respect of the Obligations then Outstanding of the series as to
which such Event of Default shall have been made, by or upon the request of the
Holders of the same percentage in principal amount of the Obligations of such
series then Outstanding.

                                  ARTICLE VII

                                  THE TRUSTEE

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

          (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the
opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the
Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of
any such 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 exists, the Trustee shall
exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use
the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own
affairs.

                                      38
<PAGE>

                    (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;

taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding

for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power
conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture; 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.

     Section 7.02.  Notice of Defaults.

     Within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of any default hereunder, the
Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders entitled to receive reports
pursuant to Section 8.03(C), if operative, and if Section 8.03(C) is not
operative, to all Holders of Obligations as their names and addresses appear in

except in the case of a default in the payment, repayment or prepayment of the
principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Obligation or in the
payment, repayment or prepayment of any sinking or purchase fund installment,
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 Holders; and PROVIDED
FURTHER, that in the case of any default of the character specified in Section
6.01(C) or 6.01(D), no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least
sixty (60) days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section,
the term "default" means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or
both would become, an Event of Default.

have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs,
expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such
request or direction;

               (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into

     Section 7.07.  Compensation and Reimbursement.

     The Company agrees:

               (a) to pay to the Trustee and each Paying Agent from time to time

Agent and, absent specific agreement, reasonable compensation for all services
rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any
provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express
trust);

               (b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse
the Trustee and each Paying Agent upon its request for all reasonable expenses,

acceptance or administration of this trust or its duties hereunder, including
the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in
connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
hereunder.

All such payments and reimbursements shall be made with interest at the "prime
rate" as quoted by and in effect from time to time by the Trustee plus one
percent (1%) per annum (such rate to be recomputed, and as so recomputed to take
effect, as of the day immediately following the date on which the Trustee
publicly announces any change in its "prime rate").

The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture
and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

     Section 7.08.  Disqualification; Conflicting Interests.

               (a) If the Trustee has or shall acquire any conflicting interest,
as defined in this Section (certain terms being defined and percentages
calculated as hereinafter stated in this Section), if the default to which such
conflicting interest relates has not been cured or duly waived or otherwise
eliminated within the ninety (90) day period immediately following the date on
which the Trustee ascertains that it has such conflicting interest, it shall,
within such ninety (90) day period, either eliminate such conflicting interest
or resign in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this
Article.

               (b) In the event that the Trustee shall fail to comply with the

such failure to the Holders in the manner and to the extent provided in Section
8.03(C).

               (c) For the purposes of this Section, the Trustee shall be deemed
to have a conflicting interest if there is an Event of Default and

          (i) the Trustee is trustee under another indenture under which any
other securities, or certificates of interest or participation in any other of
the Company are outstanding, or is trustee for more than one outstanding series
of securities, as hereafter defined, under a single indenture of the Company,
unless such other indenture is a collateral trust indenture under which the only
collateral consists of Obligations issued under this Indenture, PROVIDED that
there shall be excluded from the operation of this paragraph other series under
this Indenture and any indenture or indentures under which other securities, or
certificates of interest or participation in other securities, of the Company
are outstanding, if the Company shall have sustained the burden of proving, on
application to the Commission and after opportunity for hearing thereon, that
trusteeship under this Indenture and such other indenture or indentures or under
more than one outstanding series under a single indenture is not so likely to
involve a material conflict of interest as to make it necessary in the public
interest or for the protection of investors to disqualify the Trustee from
acting as such under one of such indentures or with respect to such series; or

                                      42
<PAGE>

          (ii)   the Trustee or any of its directors or executive officers is an
underwriter for the Company; or

          (iii)  the Trustee directly or indirectly controls or is directly or
indirectly controlled by or is under direct or indirect common control with the
Company or an underwriter for the Company; or

          (iv)   the Trustee or any of its directors or executive officers is a
director, officer, partner, employee, appointee or representative of the
Company, or of an underwriter (other than the Trustee itself) for the Company
who is currently engaged in the business of underwriting, except that (a) one
individual may be a director or an executive officer or both of the Trustee and
a director or an executive officer or both of the Company but may not be at the
same time an executive officer of both the Trustee and the Company; (b) if and
so long as the number of directors of the Trustee in office is more than nine
(9), one (1) additional individual may be a director or an executive officer or
both of the Trustee and a director of the Company; and (c) the Trustee may be
designated by the Company or by any underwriter for the Company to act in the
capacity of transfer agent, registrar, custodian, paying agent, fiscal agent,
escrow agent, or depositary, or in any other similar capacity, or, subject to
the provisions of paragraph (1) of this subsection, to act as trustee, whether
under an indenture or otherwise; or

          (v)    ten percent (10%) or more of the voting securities of the
Trustee is beneficially owned either by the Company or by any director, partner,
or executive officer thereof, or twenty percent (20%) or more of such voting
securities is beneficially owned, collectively, by any two (2) or more of such
persons; or ten percent (10%) or more of the voting securities of the Trustee is
beneficially owned either by an underwriter for the Company or by any director,
partner or executive officer thereof, or is beneficially owned, collectively, by
any two (2) or more such persons; or

          (vi)   the Trustee is the beneficial owner of, or holds as collateral
security for an obligation which is in default (as hereinafter in this
subsection defined), (a) five percent (5%) or more of the voting securities, or
ten percent (10%) or more of any other class of security, of the Company not

          (vii)  the Trustee is the beneficial owner of, or holds as collateral

subsection defined), five percent (5%) or more of the voting securities of any
person who, to the knowledge of the Trustee, owns ten percent (10%) or more of
the voting securities of, or controls directly or indirectly or is under direct
or indirect common control with, the Company; or

          (viii) the Trustee is the beneficial owner of, or holds as collateral
security for an obligation which is in default (as hereinafter in this
subsection defined), ten percent (10%) or more of any class of security of any
person who, to the knowledge of the Trustee, owns fifty percent (50%) or more of

          (ix)   the Trustee owns, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
(or any occurrence that would constitute an Event of Default upon the lapse of
time or giving of notice) or

                                      43
<PAGE>

any anniversary of such date while such Event of Default or occurrence remains
outstanding, in the capacity of executor, administrator, testamentary or inter
vivos trustee, guardian, committee or conservator, or in any other similar
capacity, an aggregate of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the voting
securities, or of any class of security, of any person, the beneficial ownership
of a specified percentage of which would have constituted a conflicting interest
under paragraph (6), (7) or (8) of this subsection. As to any such securities of
which the Trustee acquired ownership through becoming executor, administrator,
or testamentary trustee of an estate which included them, the provisions of the
preceding sentence shall not apply, for a period of two (2) years from the date
of such acquisition, to the extent that such securities included in such estate
do not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of such voting securities or twenty-five
percent (25%) of any such class of security. Promptly after any Event of Default
(or other occurrence that would constitute an Event of Default upon the lapse of
time or giving of notice) and annually in each succeeding year that any Event of
Default or other occurrence remains outstanding, the Trustee shall make a check
of its holdings of such securities in any of the above-mentioned capacities as
of such dates. If the Company fails to make payment in full of the principal of,
or the premium, if any, or interest on, any of the Obligations when and as the
same becomes due and payable, and such failure continues for thirty (30) days
thereafter, the Trustee shall make a prompt check of its holdings of such
securities in any of the above-mentioned capacities as of the date of the
expiration of such thirty (30) day period, and after such date, notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, all such securities so held by the
Trustee, with sole or joint control over such securities vested in it, shall,
but only so long as such failure shall continue, be considered as though
beneficially owned by the Trustee for the purposes of paragraphs (6), (7) and
(8) of this subsection; or

          (x) except under the circumstances described in subsection 7.13(B),
the Trustee shall become a creditor of the Company.

     For purposes of paragraph (1) of this subsection, the term "series of
securities" or "series" means a series, class or group of securities issuable
under an indenture pursuant to whose terms holders of one such series may vote
to direct the Trustee, or otherwise take action pursuant to a vote of such
Holders, separately from Holders of another such series; PROVIDED, that "series
of securities" or "series" shall not include any series of securities issuable
under an indenture if all such series rank equally and are wholly unsecured.

     The specification of percentages in paragraphs (5) to (9) inclusive, of
this subsection, shall not be construed as indicating that the ownership of such
percentages of the securities of a person is or is not necessary or sufficient
to constitute direct or indirect control for the purposes of paragraph (3) or
(7) of this subsection.

     For the purposes of paragraphs (6), (7), (8) and (9) of this subsection
only, (a) the terms "security" and "securities" shall include only such
securities as are generally known as corporate securities, but shall not include
any note or other evidence of indebtedness issued to evidence an obligation to
repay moneys lent to a person by one or more banks, trust companies or banking
firms, or any certificate of interest or participation in any such note or
evidence of indebtedness; (b) an obligation shall be deemed to be "in default"
when a default in payment of principal shall have continued for thirty (30) days
or more and shall not have been cured; and (c) the Trustee shall not be deemed
to be the owner or holder of (i) any security which it holds as collateral
security, as trustee or otherwise, for an obligation which is not in default as
defined above, or (ii) any security which it holds as collateral security under
this Indenture, irrespective of any default hereunder, or (iii) any

                                      44
<PAGE>

security which it holds as agent for collection, or as custodian, escrow agent,
or depositary, or in any similar representative capacity.

     Except in the case of the failure to pay, repay or prepay the principal of
or interest on any Obligation, or to pay any sinking or purchase fund
installment, on the date on which it becomes due, the Trustee shall not be
required to resign as provided by this subsection if such Trustee shall have
sustained the burden of proving, on application to the Commission and after
opportunity for hearing thereon, that:

          (i)    the Event of Default (or other event that would constitute an
     Event of Default upon the passage of time or giving of notice) otherwise
     giving rise to an obligation by the Trustee to resign may be cured or
     waived during a reasonable period and under the procedures described in
     such application, and

          (ii)   a stay of the Trustee's duty to resign will not be inconsistent
     with the interests of Holders of the Obligations. The filing of such an
     application shall automatically stay the performance of the duty to resign
     until the Commission orders otherwise.

     Any resignation of the Trustee shall become effective only upon the
appointment of a successor trustee and such successor's acceptance of such an
appointment.

                 (d)  For the purposes of this Section:

          (i)    The term "underwriter" when used with reference to the Company
means every person who, within one (1) year prior to the time as of which the
determination is made, has purchased from the Company with a view to, or has
offered or sold for the Company in connection with, the distribution of any
security of the Company outstanding at such time, or has participated or has had
a direct or indirect participation in any such undertaking, or has participated
or has had a participation in the direct or indirect underwriting of any such
undertaking, but such term shall not include a person whose interest was limited
to a commission from an underwriter or dealer not in excess of the usual and
customary distributors' or sellers' commission.

          (ii)   The term "director" means any director of a corporation, or any
individual performing similar functions with respect to any organization whether
incorporated or unincorporated.

          (iii)  The term "person" means an individual, a corporation, a
partnership, an association, a joint-stock company, a trust, an unincorporated
organization, or a government or political subdivision thereof. As used in this
paragraph, the term "trust" shall include only a trust where the interest or
interests of the beneficiary or beneficiaries are evidenced by a security.

          (iv)   The term "voting security" means any security presently
entitling the owner or holder thereof to vote in the direction or management of
the affairs of a person, or any security issued under or pursuant to any trust,
agreement or arrangement whereby a trustee or trustees or agent or agents for
the owner or holder of such security are presently entitled to vote in the
direction or management of the affairs of a person.

          (v)    The term "the Company" means any obligor upon the Obligations.

                                      45
<PAGE>

          (vi)   The term "executive officer" means the president, every vice
president, every trust officer, the cashier, the secretary, and the treasurer of
a corporation, and any individual customarily performing similar functions with
respect to any organization whether incorporated or unincorporated, but shall
not include the chairman of the board of directors.

                 (e) The percentages of voting securities and other securities
specified in this Section shall be calculated in accordance with the following
provisions:

          (i)    A specified percentage of the voting securities of the Trustee,
the Company or any other person referred to in this Section (each of whom is
referred to as a "person" in this paragraph) means such amount of the
outstanding voting securities of such person as entitles the holder or holders
thereof to cast such specified percentage of the aggregate votes which the
holders of all the outstanding voting securities of such person are entitled to
cast in the direction or management of the affairs of such person.

          (ii)   A specified percentage of a class of securities of a person
means such percentage of the aggregate amount of securities of the class
outstanding.

          (iii)  The term "amount," when used in regard to securities, means the
principal amount if relating to evidences of indebtedness, the number of shares
if relating to capital shares, and the number of units if relating to any other
kind of security.

          (iv)   The term "outstanding" means issued and not held by or for the
account of the issuer. The following securities shall not be deemed outstanding
within the meaning of this definition:

     (A) securities of an issuer held in a sinking fund relating to securities
of the issuer of the same class;

     (B) securities of an issuer held in a sinking fund relating to another
class of securities of the issuer, if the obligation evidenced by such other
class of securities is not in default as to principal or interest or otherwise;

     (C) securities pledged by the issuer thereof as security for an obligation
of the issuer not in default as to principal or interest or otherwise; and

     (D)  securities held in escrow if placed in escrow by the issuer thereof;

     PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any voting securities of an issuer shall be deemed
     outstanding if any person other than the issuer is entitled to exercise the
     voting rights thereof.

          (v)    A security shall be deemed to be of the same class as another
security if both securities confer upon the holder or holders thereof
substantially the same rights and privileges; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, in the
case of secured evidences of indebtedness, all of which are issued under a
single indenture, differences in the interest rates or maturity dates of various
series thereof shall not be deemed sufficient to constitute such series as
different classes, and PROVIDED FURTHER, that in the case of unsecured evidences
of indebtedness, differences in the interest rates

                                      46
<PAGE>

or maturity dates thereof shall not be deemed sufficient to constitute them
securities of different classes, whether or not they are issued under a single
indenture.

     Section 7.09.  Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

     There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which (i) shall be a
corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of
America or of any state or the District of Columbia, and (ii) shall have a
combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such corporation
publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of such 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.  Neither the Company nor any Person directly
or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the
Company shall serve as Trustee hereunder. If at any time the Trustee shall cease
to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall
resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in
this Article.

     Section 7.10.  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 7.11.

                    (b) The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written
notice thereof to the Company. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor
Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within thirty (30) days
after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Trustee.

                    (c) Unless an Event of Default (or an occurrence that would
constitute an Event of Default upon the passage of time or the giving of notice)
exists, the Company may remove the Trustee with or without cause, by delivery to
the Trustee of a Board Resolution effecting such removal. The Trustee may be
removed with or without cause at any time by Act of the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Obligations, delivered to the Trustee and to
the Company.

                    (d) If at any time:

          (i)       the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 7.08(A) after
written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona
fide Holder of an Obligation for at least six (6) months, or

          (ii)      the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 7.09
and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any
such Holder, or

          (iii)     the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be
adjudged 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,

                                      47
<PAGE>

then, in any such case, (a) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the
Trustee, or (b) subject to Section 6.14, any Holder who has been a bona fide
Holder of an Obligation for at least six (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.

               (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable
of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause,
the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.
In case all or substantially all of the property of the Company shall be in the
possession of a receiver or trustee lawfully appointed, such receiver or
trustee, by written instrument, may similarly appoint a successor to fill such
vacancy until a new Trustee shall be so appointed by the Holders. If, within one
(1) year after such resignation, removal or incapability or the occurrence of
such vacancy, a successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Obligations 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
and supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company or by such receiver
or trustee. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Company
or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided,
subject to Section 6.14, the Trustee or any Holder who has been a bona fide
Holder of an Obligation for at least six (6) months may, on behalf of itself and
all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Trustee.

               (f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each
removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee by mailing
written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the
Holders of Obligations as their names and addresses appear in the Obligation
Register. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the
address of its principal corporate trust office.

     Section 7.11.  Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

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

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

     Section 7.12.  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 such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this
Article, to the extent operative, without the execution or filing of any paper
or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any
Obligations shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee
then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such
authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Obligations
so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself
authenticated such Obligations.

     Section 7.13.  Preferential Collection of Claims against Company.

                    (a) Subject to subsection (B) of this Section, if the
Trustee shall be or shall become a creditor, directly or indirectly, secured or
unsecured, of the Company within three (3) months prior to a default (as defined
in subsection (C) of this Section), or subsequent to such a default, then,
unless and until such default shall be cured, the Trustee shall set apart and
hold in a special account for the benefit of the Trustee individually, the
Holders of the Obligations and the holders of other indenture securities (as
defined in subsection (C) of this Section):

               (i)  an amount equal to any and all reductions in the amount due
and owing upon any claim as such creditor in respect of principal, premium (if
any) or interest, effected after the beginning of such three (3) month period
and valid as against the Company and its other creditors, except any such
reduction resulting from the receipt or disposition of any property described in
paragraph (2) of this subsection, or from the exercise of any right of set-off
which the Trustee could have exercised if a petition in bankruptcy had been
filed by or against the Company upon the date of such default; and

               (ii) all property received by the Trustee in respect of any claim
as such creditor, either as security therefor, or in satisfaction or composition
thereof, or otherwise, after the beginning of such three (3) month period, or an
amount equal to the proceeds of any such property, if disposed of, SUBJECT,
HOWEVER, to the rights, if any, of the Company and its other creditors in such
property or such proceeds.

     Nothing herein contained, however, shall affect the right of the Trustee

     (A) to retain for its own account (i) payments made on account of any such
claim by any Person (other than the Company) who is liable thereon, and (ii) the
proceeds of the bona fide sale of any such claim by the Trustee to a third
person, and (iii) distributions made in cash, securities or other property in
respect of claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in
proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Code or
applicable state law; or

     (B) to realize, for its own account, upon any property held by it as
security for any such claim, if such property was so held prior to the beginning
of such three (3) month period; or

                                      49
<PAGE>

     (C) to realize, for its own account, but only to the extent of the claim
hereinafter mentioned, upon any property held by it as security for any such
claim, if such claim was created after the beginning of such three (3) month
period and such property was received as security therefor simultaneously with
the creation thereof, and if the Trustee shall sustain the burden of proving
that at the time such property was so received the Trustee had no reasonable
cause to believe that a default would occur within three (3) months; or

     (D) to receive payment on any claim referred to in subparagraph (b) or (c)
above, against the release of any property held as security for such claim as
provided in subparagraph (b) or (c), as the case may be, to the extent of the
fair value of such property.

     For the purposes of subparagraphs (b), (c) and (d), property substituted
after the beginning of such three (3) month period for property held as security
at the time of such substitution shall, to the extent of the fair value of the
property released, have the same status as the property released, and, to the
extent that any claim referred to in any of such Subparagraphs is created in
renewal of or in substitution for or for the purpose of repaying or refunding
any pre-existing claim of the Trustee as such creditor, such claim shall have
the same status as such pre-existing claim.

     If the Trustee shall be required to account, the funds and property held in
such special account and the proceeds thereof shall be apportioned among the
Trustee, the Holders and the holders of other indenture securities in such
manner that the Trustee, the Holders and the holders of other indenture
securities realize, as a result of payments from such special account and
payments of dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or
receivership or in proceedings for liquidation or reorganization pursuant to the
Federal Bankruptcy Code or applicable state law, the same percentage of their
respective claims, calculated before crediting to the claim of the Trustee
anything on account of the receipt by it from the Company of the funds and
property in such special account and before crediting to the respective claims
of the Trustee and the Holders and the holders of other indenture securities
dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or
in proceedings for liquidation or reorganization pursuant to the Federal
Bankruptcy Code or applicable state law, but after crediting thereon receipts on
account of the indebtedness represented by their respective claims from all
sources other than from such dividends and from the funds and property so held
in such special account. As used in this paragraph, with respect to any claim,
the term "dividends" shall include any distribution with respect to such claim,
in bankruptcy or receivership or proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the
Federal Bankruptcy Code or applicable state law, whether such distribution is
made in cash, securities, or other property, but shall not include any such
distribution with respect to the secured portion, if any, of such claim. The
court in which such bankruptcy, receivership or proceedings for reorganization
is pending shall have jurisdiction (i) to apportion among the Trustee, the
Holders and the holders of other indenture securities, in accordance with the
provisions of this paragraph, the funds and property held in such special
account and proceeds thereof, or (ii) in lieu of such apportionment, in whole or
in part, to give to the provisions of this paragraph due consideration in
determining the fairness of the distributions to be made to the Trustee and the
Holders and the holders of other indenture securities with respect to their
respective claims, in which event it shall not be necessary to liquidate or to
appraise the value of any securities or other property held in such special
account or as security for any such claim, or to make a specific allocation of
such distributions as between the secured and unsecured portions of such claims,
or otherwise to apply the provisions of this paragraph as a mathematical
formula.

     Any Trustee which has resigned or been removed after the beginning of such
three (3) month period shall be subject to the provisions of this subsection as
though such resignation or removal had not occurred. If any Trustee has resigned

shall be subject to the provisions of this subsection if and only if the
following conditions exist:

          (i)    the receipt of property or reduction of claim, which would have
     given rise to the obligation to account, if such Trustee had continued as

     three (3) months after such resignation or removal.

more at the time of acquisition by the Trustee; or

capacity of trustee under an indenture, transfer agent, registrar, custodian,
paying agent, fiscal agent or depositary, or other similar capacity; or

          (iii)  an indebtedness created as a result of services rendered or
premises rented; or an indebtedness created as a result of goods or securities
sold in a cash transaction (as defined in subsection (C) of this Section); or

          (iv)   the ownership of stock or of other securities of a corporation
organized under the provisions of Section 25(a) of the Federal Reserve Act, as
amended, or any successor statute, which is directly or indirectly a creditor of
the Company; or

          (v)    the acquisition, ownership, acceptance or negotiation of any
drafts, bills of exchange, acceptances or obligations which fall within the
classification of self-liquidating paper (as defined in subsection (C) of this
Section).

                 (c) For the purposes of this Section only:

          (i)    The term "default" means any failure to make payment in full of
the principal of or interest on any of the Obligations or upon the other
indenture securities when and as such principal or interest become due and
payable;

          (ii)   The term "other indenture securities" means securities upon
which the Company is an obligor outstanding (within the meaning of that term in
Section 7.08(E)(4)) under any other indenture (a) under which the Trustee is
also trustee, (b) which contains provisions substantially similar to the
provisions of this Section, and (c) under which a default exists at the time of
the apportionment of the funds and property held in such special account;

                                      51
<PAGE>

          (iii)     The term "cash transaction" means any transaction in which
full payment for goods or securities sold is made within seven (7) days after
delivery of the goods or securities in currency or in checks or other orders
drawn upon banks or bankers and payable upon demand;

          (iv)      The term "self-liquidating paper" means any draft, bill of
exchange, acceptance or obligation which is made, drawn, negotiated or incurred
by the Company for the purpose of financing the purchase, processing,

upon, the goods, wares or merchandise or the receivables or proceeds arising
from the sale of the goods, wares or merchandise previously constituting the
security, provided the security is received by the Trustee simultaneously with
the creation of the creditor relationship with the Company arising from the
making, drawing, negotiating or incurring of the draft, bill of exchange,
acceptance or obligation;

          (v)       The term "Company" means any obligor upon the Obligations;
and

          (vi)      The term "Federal Bankruptcy Code" means Title 11 of the
United States Code, as it may be amended from time to time.

     Section 7.14.  Authenticating Agent.

     The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents which shall be
authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Obligations issued
upon original issue and upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial
redemption or pursuant to Sections 3.06, 3.07, 3.08 or 12.07, and Obligations 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. Such Authenticating Agent shall at all times be a bank or trust
company, and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States or of any state, territory or the District
of Columbia, with a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and
authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and subject to
supervision or examination by Federal, state, territorial or District of
Columbia authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least
annually pursuant to law or the requirements of such 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.

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

     Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of
resignation to the Trustee and the Company. The Trustee may at any time
terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of
termination to such Authenticating Agent and the Company. Upon receiving such a
notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any

                                      52
<PAGE>

time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible under this Section, the
Trustee shall promptly appoint a successor Authenticating Agent, shall give
written notice of such appointment to the Company and shall mail notice of such
appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Obligations
of the applicable series as the names and addresses of such Holders appear on
the Obligation Register.

     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.

     The Trustee agrees to pay to the Authenticating Agent from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services under this Section and the Trustee
shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Company for such payments, subject to
Section 7.07. The provisions of Sections 3.10, 7.04 and 7.05 shall be applicable
to any Authenticating Agent.

     Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment
hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an
Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed
unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

     The Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services under this Section, and the Trustee
shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions
of Section 7.07.

     If an appointment is made pursuant to this Section, the Obligations may
have endorsed thereon, in lieu of the Trustee's certificate of authentication,
an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form:

     This is one of the Obligations described in the within-mentioned Indenture.

                          HOLDERS' LISTS AND REPORTS
                            BY TRUSTEE AND COMPANY

     Section 8.01.  Company to Furnish Trustee Semi-Annual Lists of Holders.

     The Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee
semiannually, not less than forty-five (45) days nor more than sixty (60) days
after June 1 and December 1, and at such

                                      53
<PAGE>

other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within thirty (30) days after
receipt by the Company of any such request, a list in such form as the Trustee
may reasonably require containing all the information in the possession or
control of the Company, or any of its Paying Agents other than the Trustee, as
to the names and addresses of the Holders of Obligations, obtained since the
date as of which the next previous list, if any, was furnished, EXCLUDING from
any such list the names and addresses received by the Trustee in its capacity as
Obligation Registrar. Any such list may be dated as of a date not more than
fifteen (15) days prior to the time such information is furnished and need not
include information received after such date.

     Section 8.02.  Preservation of Information; Communications to Holders.

                    (a)  The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is
reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Holders of Obligations (1)
contained in the most recent list furnished to the Trustee as provided in
Section 8.01, (2) received by the Trustee in the capacity of Paying Agent (if so
acting) hereunder, (3) filed with the Trustee by Holders of Obligations within
the two (2) preceding years as provided for in Section 8.03(C)(2) or (4)
received by the Trustee in its capacity as Obligation Registrar.

     The Trustee may (1) destroy any list furnished to it under Section 8.01
upon receipt of a new list so furnished, (2) destroy any information received by
it as Paying Agent (if so acting) hereunder upon delivering to itself as
Trustee, not earlier than forty-five (45) days after June 1 and December 1 of
each year, a list containing the names and addresses of the Holders of
Obligations obtained from such information since the delivery of the next
previous list, if any, (3) destroy any list delivered to itself as Trustee which
was compiled from information received by it as Paying Agent (if so acting)
hereunder upon the receipt of a new list so delivered, and (4) destroy, not
earlier than two (2) years after filing, any information as to their names and
addresses filed with the Trustee by Holders of Obligations as provided for in
Section 8.03(C)(2).

                    (b)  If three (3) or more Holders of Obligations
(hereinafter referred to as "applicants") apply in writing to the Trustee, and
furnish to the Trustee reasonable proof that each such applicant has owned an
Obligation for a period of at least six (6) months preceding the date of such
application, and such application states that the applicants desire to
communicate with other Holders of Obligations with respect to their rights under
this Indenture or under the Obligations 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 (5) 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 8.02(A), or

               (ii) inform such applicants as to the approximate number of
Holders of Obligations whose names and addresses appear in the information
preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 8.02(A), and as
to the approximate cost of mailing to such Holders 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 whose name and address appear in the information preserved
at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section

                                      54
<PAGE>

8.02(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 such mailing, unless within five (5) 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 Obligations 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 such
Holders 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 Obligations, by receiving and holding
the same, agrees with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor
the Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall be held accountable by reason of the
disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Holders
of Obligations in accordance with Section 8.02(B), regardless of the source from
which such 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 8.02(B).

     Section 8.03.  Reports by Trustee.

     The provisions of this Section shall be operative only while this Indenture
is required to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act.

                    (a)  The term "reporting date," as used in this Section,
means June 30 in each year, beginning with the first June 30th following the
Release Date. Within sixty (60) days after the reporting date in each year, the
Trustee shall transmit to the Holders, as provided in subsection (C) of this
Section, a brief report dated as of such reporting date with respect to any of
the following events which may have occurred within the previous twelve (12)
months (but if no such event has occurred within such period no such report need
be transmitted):

              (i)   any change to its eligibility under Section 7.09 and its
qualifications under Section 7.08;

              (ii)  the creation of or any material change to a relationship
specified in paragraphs (1) through (10) of subsection 7.08(C);

              (iii) the character and amount of any advances (and if the Trustee
elects so to state, the circumstances surrounding the making thereof) made by
the Trustee (as such) which remain unpaid on the date of such report, and for
the reimbursement of which it claims or may claim a lien or charge, prior to
that of the Obligations on any property or funds held or collected by it as
Trustee, except that the Trustee shall not be required (but may elect) to report
such advances if such advances so remaining unpaid aggregate not more than one-
half percent (0.5%) of the principal amount of the Obligations Outstanding on
the date of such report;

                                      55
<PAGE>

               (iv)  the amount, interest rate and maturity date of all other
indebtedness owing by the Company (or by any other obligor on the Obligations)
to the Trustee in its individual capacity, on the date of such report, with a
brief description of any property held as collateral security therefor, except
an indebtedness based upon a creditor relationship arising in any manner
described in Section 7.13(B)(2), (3), (4) or (6);

               (v)   any change to the property and funds, if any, physically in
     the possession of the Trustee as such on the date of such report;

               (vi)  any additional issue of Obligations which the Trustee has
     not previously reported; and

               (vii) any action taken by the Trustee in the performance of its
duties hereunder which it has not previously reported and which in its opinion
materially affects the Obligations, except action in respect of a default,
notice of which has been or is to be withheld by the Trustee in accordance with
Section 7.02.

                     (b)  The Trustee shall transmit to the Holders, as provided
in subsection (C) of this Section, a brief report with respect to the character
and amount of any advances (and if the Trustee elects so to state, the
circumstances surrounding the making thereof) made by the Trustee (as such)
since the date of the last report transmitted pursuant to subsection (A) of this
Section (or if no such report has yet been so transmitted, since the date of
execution of this instrument) for the reimbursement of which it claims or may
claim a lien or charge, prior to that of the Obligations on any property or
funds held or collected by it as Trustee, and which it has not previously
reported pursuant to this subsection, except that the Trustee shall not be
required (but may elect) to report such advances if such advances remaining
unpaid at any time aggregate ten percent (10%) or less of the principal amount
of the Obligations Outstanding at such time, such report to be transmitted
within ninety (90) days after such time.

                     (c)  Reports pursuant to this Section shall be transmitted
by mail:

               (i)   to all Holders of Obligations, as the names and addresses
of such Holders appear in the Obligation Register;

               (ii)  to such Holders as have, within the two (2) years preceding
     such transmission, filed their names and addresses with the Trustee for
     that purpose; and

               (iii) except in the case of reports pursuant to subsection (B) of
this Section, to all Holders whose names and addresses have been furnished to or
received by the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof.

                     (d)  A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such
transmission to Holders, be filed by the Trustee with each stock exchange upon
which any of the Obligations are listed and also with the Commission. The
Company will notify the Trustee when the Obligations are listed on any stock
exchange.

     Section 8.04.  Reports by Company.

As long as this Indenture is required to be qualified under the Trust Indenture
Act, the Company shall:

                    (a)  file with the Trustee, within fifteen (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 (or copies of
such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by
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 Exchange Act; or,
if the Company is not required to file information, documents or reports
pursuant to either of such Sections, then it will file with the Trustee and the
Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the
Commission, such of the supplementary and periodic information, documents and
reports which may be required pursuant to Section 13 of the Exchange Act in
respect of a security listed and registered on a national securities exchange as
may be prescribed in such rules and regulations;

                    (b)  file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance
with rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission, such additional
information, documents and reports with respect to compliance by the Company
with the conditions and covenants of this Indenture as may be required by such
rules and regulations; and

                    (c)  transmit to the Holders of Obligations, within thirty
(30) days after the filing thereof with the Trustee, in the manner and to the
extent provided in Section 8.03(C) with respect to reports pursuant to Section
8.03(A), such summaries of any information, documents and reports required to be
filed by the Company pursuant to subsections (A) and (B) of this Section as may
be required by rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission.

                    (d)  The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as
possible and in any event within five (5) days after the Company becomes aware
of the occurrence of any Event of Default or an event which, with notice or the
lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, an Officer's
Certificate setting forth the details of such Event of Default or default and
the action which the Company proposes to take with respect thereto.

                    (e)  In respect of each Series of Original Issue Discount
Obligations, the Company shall file with the Trustee promptly at the end of each
calendar year (i) a written notice specifying the amount of original issue
discount (including daily rates and accrual periods) accrued on each Series of
such Obligations as of the end of such year, and (ii) such other specific
information relating to such original issue discount as may then be relevant
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time.

Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee pursuant to
subsection (A) of this Section 8.04 is for informational purposes only and the
Trustee's receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any
information contained therein or determinable from information contained
therein, including the Company's compliance with any of its covenants hereunder
(as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers'
Certificates).

     Section 10.01.  Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders.

     Without the consent of the Holders of any Obligations, the Company, when

time, may enter into one or more Supplemental Indentures, in form satisfactory
to the Trustee, for any of the following purposes:

additional conditions, limitations and restrictions thereafter to be observed;
or

               (i)  in the event any such modification or elimination made in
such Supplemental Indenture would adversely affect or diminish the rights of the
Holders of any Obligations then Outstanding against the Company or its property,
it shall expressly be stated in such Supplemental Indenture that any such
modifications or eliminations shall become effective only when there is no
Obligation Outstanding of any series created prior to the execution of such
Supplemental Indenture; and

               (ii) the Trustee may, in its discretion, decline to enter into
any such Supplemental Indenture which, in its opinion, may not afford adequate
protection to the Trustee when the same becomes operative; or

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

                    (e)  to evidence the appointment of any successor trustee or

define the rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred upon any such

                    (f)  to add to the covenants of the Company or the Events of
Default for the benefit of the Holders of all or any series of Obligations or to
surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company; or

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

                    (h)  to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this
Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the qualification of
this Indenture under the TIA or under any similar federal statute hereafter
enacted, and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may be expressly
permitted by the TIA, EXCLUDING, HOWEVER, the provisions referred to in Section
316(a)(2) of the TIA as in effect at the date as of which this instrument was
executed or any corresponding provision in any similar federal statute hereafter
enacted; or

                    (i)  to add or change any of the provisions of this
Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the
issuance of Obligations (i) in bearer form, registrable or not registrable as to
principal and with or without interest coupons or (ii) in book-entry form; or

                    (j)  to make any change in the Indenture that, in the
reasonable judgment of the Trustee, will not materially and adversely affect the
rights of Holders. For purposes of this paragraph of this Section, any
Supplemental Indenture will be presumed not to materially and

                                      59
<PAGE>

adversely affect the rights of the Holders if (1) this Indenture, as
supplemented and amended by such Supplemental Indenture, provides equally and
ratably for the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on
the Outstanding Obligations which are to remain Outstanding, and (2) subject to
the last sentence of this paragraph, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee
written evidence from at least two (2) nationally recognized statistical rating
organizations then rating the Obligations (or other obligations primarily
secured by Outstanding Obligations) that their respective ratings of the
Outstanding Obligations (or other obligations primarily secured by Outstanding
Obligations) that are not subject to Credit Enhancement will not be withdrawn or
reduced as a result of the changes in the Indenture effected by such
Supplemental Indenture; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the failure to qualify for the
presumption set forth in this sentence shall not create any presumption to the
contrary or be used to question the judgment of the Trustee and PROVIDED,
FURTHER, that the provisions of this paragraph may not be used to amend or
modify the items listed in paragraphs (A) through (F) of Section 10.02 hereof in
any way that is inconsistent with the provisions of such Section 10.02. The
Trustee may rely on the written evidence of the nationally recognized
statistical rating organizations then rating the Obligations (or other
obligations primarily secured by Outstanding Obligations) with respect to credit
matters relating to the Company to the extent that it deems such reliance to be
appropriate.

     The Company shall promptly give notice to any Credit Enhancer of any
Supplemental Indenture entered into pursuant to the provisions of this Section
10.01.

     Section 10.02.  Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Holders.

     With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal
amount of the Obligations of all series then Outstanding affected by such
Supplemental Indenture, by Act of such Holders delivered to the Company and the
Trustee, the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may
enter into a Supplemental Indenture for the purpose of adding any provisions to
or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture
or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Obligations under
this Indenture; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such Supplemental Indenture shall,
without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Obligation affected
thereby:

               (a)  change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any
installment of interest on, any Obligation, or reduce the principal amount
thereof or the interest thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption
thereof, or change any Place of Payment where, or the coin or currency in which,
any Obligation, or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated
Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption
Date); or

               (b)  reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding
Obligations, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such Supplemental
Indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver provided
for in this Indenture of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or
certain defaults hereunder and their consequences; or

               (c)  modify or alter the provisions of the proviso to the
definition of the term "Outstanding"; or

<PAGE>

                    (d)  modify any of the provisions of this Section, Section
6.08 or Section 6.13, except to increase any percentage provided thereby or to
provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or
waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Obligation affected
thereby; or

                    (e)  modify, in the case of Obligations of any series for
which a mandatory sinking fund is provided, any of the provisions of this
Indenture in such manner as to affect the rights of the Holders of such
Obligations to the benefits of such sinking fund; or

                    (f)  modify Section 6.04 of this Indenture.

     The Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not any Obligations
would be affected by any Supplemental Indenture and any such determination shall
be conclusive upon the Holder of all Obligations, whether theretofore or
thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Trustee shall not be
liable for any such determination made in good faith.

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

     Section 10.03.  Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

     In executing or accepting the additional trusts created by, any
Supplemental Indenture permitted by this Article or the modification thereby of
the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive,
and, subject to Section 7.01, 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. The Trustee may, but shall not,
except to the extent required in the case of a Supplemental Indenture entered
into under Section 10.01, be obligated to, enter into any such Supplemental
Indenture which adversely affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities
under this Indenture or otherwise.

     Section 10.04.  Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

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

     Section 10.05.  Conformity with Trust Indenture Act.

     As long as this Indenture is required to be qualified under the TIA, every
Supplemental Indenture executed pursuant to this Article shall conform to the
requirements of the TIA as then in effect.

     Section 10.06.  Reference in Obligations to Supplemental Indentures.

     Obligations authenticated and delivered after the execution of any
Supplemental Indenture pursuant to this Article may, and if required by the
Trustee or the Company shall, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as
to any matter provided for in such Supplemental Indenture. If the

                                      61
<PAGE>

Company shall so determine, new Obligations so modified as to conform, in the
opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors, to any such Supplemental
Indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and
delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Obligations.

                                  ARTICLE XI

                                   COVENANTS

     Section 11.01.  Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest.

     The Company will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if
any) and interest on the Obligations in accordance with the terms of the
Obligations and this Indenture.

     Section 11.02.  Maintenance of Office or Agency.

     The Company will maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment
where Obligations may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Obligations
entitled to be registered, transferred, exchanged or converted may be presented
or surrendered for registration, transfer, exchange or conversion and where
notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Obligations 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 any such office
or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain such an 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
principal 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 11.03.  Money for Obligation Payments to be Held in Trust; Repayment of
Unclaimed Money.

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

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

     Moneys so segregated or deposited and held in trust shall constitute a
separate trust fund for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal,
premium or interest. Except in the case of moneys so segregated by the Company
when acting as its own Paying Agent, moneys held in trust by the Trustee or any
other Paying Agent for the payment of the principal (or premium, if any) or

                                      62
<PAGE>

interest on the Obligations need not be segregated from other funds, except to
the extent required by law.

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

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

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

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

     Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent or held by the
Company in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or
interest on any Obligation and remaining unclaimed for two (2) years after such
principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be
paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall
be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Obligation shall
thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for
payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with
respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee
thereof, shall thereupon cease.

     Section 11.04.  Limitations on Security Interests.

     The Company shall not create, assume or suffer to exist any Security
Interest on any Subject Property without equally and ratably securing the
obligations of the Company to the Holders of any and all Obligations of any
series then Outstanding except Security Interests securing at any one time
outstanding amounts not to exceed in the aggregate the greater of (i) two
percent (2%) of the Company's total assets, and (ii) $10,000,000.

     Section 11.05.  Maintenance of Properties.

     The Company will cause all its properties used or useful in the conduct of
its business to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working
order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be made all
necessary repairs, renewals, replacements,  betterments and improvements
thereof, all as in the judgment of the Company may be necessary so that the
business

                                      63
<PAGE>

carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted
at all times; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing in this Section shall prevent the
Company from discontinuing the operation and maintenance of any of its
properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Company, desirable
in the conduct of its business and not disadvantageous in any material respect
to the Holders.

     Section 11.06.  To Insure.

     The Company will at all times keep all its property of an insurable nature
and of the character usually insured by companies operating similar properties,
insured in amounts customarily carried, and against loss or damage from such
causes as are customarily insured against, by similar companies.  All such
insurance shall be effected with responsible insurance carriers.

     Section 11.07.  Corporate Existence.

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

     Section 11.08.  To Keep Books; Inspection by Trustee.

     The Company will keep proper books of record and account, in which full and
correct entries shall be made of all dealings or transactions of or in relation
to the Obligations and the plants, properties, business and affairs of the
Company in accordance with Accounting Requirements. The Company will, upon
reasonable written notice by the Trustee to the Company and at the expense of
the Company, permit the Trustee by its representatives to inspect the plants and
properties, books of account, records, reports and other papers of the Company,
and to take copies and extracts therefrom, and will afford and procure a
reasonable opportunity to make any such inspection, and the Company will furnish
to the Trustee any and all information as the Trustee may reasonably request,
with respect to the performance by the Company of its covenants in this
Indenture; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the Company shall not be required to make
available any information supplied to it by a third party which is subject to a
confidentiality agreement with such third party except to the extent allowed by,
and subject to the terms of, such confidentiality agreement.

     Section 11.09.  Advances by Trustee.

     If the Company shall fail to perform any of its covenants in this
Indenture, the Trustee may, at any time and from time to time after notice to
the Company, make advances, to effect performance of any such covenant on behalf
of the Company; and all moneys so used or advanced by the Trustee, together with
interest at the "prime rate" as quoted by and in effect from time to time by the
Trustee plus one percent (1%) per annum (such rate to be recomputed, and as so
recomputed to take effect, as of the day immediately following the date on which
the Trustee publicly announces any change in its "prime rate"), shall be repaid
by the Company upon demand.

                                      64
<PAGE>

     Section 11.10.  Statement as to Compliance.

     The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within one hundred twenty (120)
days after the end of each calendar year, a written statement signed by the
principal executive officer and by the principal financial officer or principal
accounting officer of the Company stating that a review of the Company's
activities has been made under his or her supervision and that the Company has
fulfilled its obligations hereunder in all material respects.

     Promptly after any Officer of the Company may reasonably be deemed to have
knowledge of a default (as defined in Section 7.02) hereunder, the Company will
deliver to the Trustee a written notice specifying the nature and period of
existence thereof and the action the Company is taking and proposes to take with
respect thereto.

     Promptly upon becoming aware of the ownership of any Obligation by any
Affiliate of the Company, any other obligor under such Obligation or any
Affiliate of such obligor, the Company shall give the Trustee notice thereof.

     Section 11.11.  Waiver of Certain Covenants.

The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or
condition set forth in this Article except Sections 11.01, 11.02, 11.03, 11.07,
11.08 and 11.09 if before or after the time for such compliance the Holders of
at least a majority in principal amount of all Obligations then Outstanding
shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or
generally waive compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver
shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so
expressly waived and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations
of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or
condition shall remain in full force and effect.

     Section 11.12.  Rate Covenant.

     The Company shall establish and collect rates, rents, charges, fees and
other compensation (collectively "Rates") (i) for the use or the sale of the
output, capacity or service of the System which are reasonably expected to yield
Margins for Interest for each fiscal year of the Company, equal to at least 1.10
times Interest Charges for such period, subject to the approval or determination
of any regulatory or judicial authority with jurisdiction over Rates, and (ii)
that, together with other moneys available to the Company, produce moneys
sufficient to enable the Company to comply with its covenants under this
Indenture.  Promptly upon any material change in the circumstances which were
contemplated at the time such Rates were most recently reviewed, but not less
frequently than once every twelve (12) months, the Company shall review the
Rates so established and shall, subject in the case of the Margins for Interest
requirement in clause (i) to any necessary regulatory or judicial approval or
determination, promptly establish or revise such Rates as necessary to comply
with the foregoing requirements.

     Section 11.13.  Distributions to Members.

     The Company shall not directly or indirectly declare or pay any dividend or
make any payments, distributions or retirements of patronage capital to members
(each a "Distribution") if, at the time thereof or after giving effect thereto,
(i) an Event of Default shall exist, or (ii) the Company's patronage capital
(determined in accordance with Accounting Requirements) as of the

                                      65
<PAGE>

end of the Company's most recent fiscal quarter would be less than twenty
percent (20%) of the Company's total long-term debt and patronage capital
(determined in accordance with Accounting Requirements) at such time.
Notwithstanding the foregoing and so long as no Event of Default shall exist,
the Company may declare and make Distributions each fiscal year as long as the
aggregate Distributions for such fiscal year is equal to or less than five
percent (5%) of the Company's patronage capital (determined in accordance with
Accounting Requirements) as of the end of the immediately preceding fiscal year.
For purposes of this Section, determination of patronage capital and total long-
term debt and patronage capital shall not include any amount on account of
earnings retained in any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company and any such
determination of total long-term debt and patronage capital shall exclude the
debt of any Subsidiary or Affiliate.

                                  ARTICLE XII

                   REDEMPTION OF OBLIGATIONS; SINKING FUNDS

     Section 12.01.  General Applicability of Sections 12.01 through 12.07.

     Obligations which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be
redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise provided with
respect to the Obligations of any particular series by the provisions of the
Supplemental Indenture creating such series) in accordance with Sections 12.01
through 12.07.

     Section 12.02.  Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

     The election of the Company to redeem any Obligations shall be evidenced by
a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of
less than all the Outstanding Obligations of any series, the Company shall, at
least forty-five (45) 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 Obligations of
such series to be redeemed and of the numbers of any Outstanding Obligations of
such series then owned by the Company.

     If the Obligations of any series to be redeemed consist of Obligations
having different Stated Maturities or different rates of interest (or methods of
computing interest), then the Company may, in the notice delivered to the
Trustee pursuant to this Section, direct that the Securities of such series to
be redeemed shall be selected from among groups of such Obligations having
specified Stated Maturities or rates of interest (or methods of computing
interest) and the Trustee shall thereafter select the particular Obligations to
be redeemed in the manner set forth below from among the groups of Obligations
so specified.

     Section 12.03.  Selection by Trustee of Obligations to be Redeemed.

     Unless otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture authorizing a
particular series of Obligations, if less than all the Outstanding Obligations
of any series or maturity within a series are to be redeemed, the particular
Obligations to be redeemed shall be selected not more than sixty (60) days prior
to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the Outstanding Obligations of such
series or maturity within a series which have not previously been called for
redemption by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate.  In
any such selection pursuant to this Section, the

                                      66
<PAGE>

Trustee shall make such adjustments, reallocations and eliminations as it shall
deem proper to the end that the principal amount of Obligations of such series
or maturity within a series so selected shall be equal to the greater of $1,000
and the smallest authorized denomination of the Obligations of such series, or a
multiple thereof, by increasing or decreasing or eliminating the amount which
would otherwise be allocable to any Holder by an amount not exceeding such
minimum. The Trustee in its discretion may determine the particular Obligations
(if there is more than one) registered in the name of any Holder which are to be
redeemed, in whole or in part. In any case where any Obligations of such series
are registered in the same name, the Trustee in its discretion may treat the
aggregate principal amount so registered as if it were represented by one
Obligation of such series.

     The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Obligations
selected for redemption and, in the case of any Obligation 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 Obligations shall relate, in the
case of any Obligation redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion
of the principal of such Obligation which has been or is to be redeemed.

     Section 12.04.  Notice of Redemption.

     Except as otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture, notice of
redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less
than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the Redemption Date, to
each Holder of Obligations of such series to be redeemed, at its address
appearing in the Obligation Register.

     Except as otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture, all notices of
redemption shall state:

                    (a)  the CUSIP number (if any) of all Obligations to be
redeemed,

                    (b)  the Redemption Date,

                    (c)  the Redemption Price,

                    (d)  the principal amount of Obligations of each series to
be redeemed, and, if less than all Outstanding Obligations of a series are to be
redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the
respective principal amounts) of the Obligations of such series to be redeemed,

                    (e)  that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price of
each of the Obligations to be redeemed will become due and payable and that the
interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after such Redemption Date if
the Redemption Price is then paid,

                    (f)  the place or places where the Obligations of each
series to be redeemed are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price,
which shall be the office or agency of the Company in each Place of Payment for
such series, and

                                      67
<PAGE>

                    (g)  if it be the case, that such redemption is to satisfy
sinking fund requirements.

     Notice of redemption of Obligations 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 12.05.  Deposit of Redemption Price.

     Prior to 10:00 a.m., Richmond, Virginia time on 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 11.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption
Price of all the Obligations which are to be redeemed on that date. Such money
shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such
Redemption Price.

     Subject to the requirements of any Supplemental Indenture, the Company may
determine what sinking fund requirements (if any) to apply redeemed Obligations
against.

     Section 12.06.  Obligations Payable on Redemption Date.

     Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Obligations 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 Obligations
shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Obligation for
redemption in accordance with such notice or compliance with such other terms as
may be provided in any Supplemental Indenture relating thereto, such Obligation
shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price. Installments of interest
with a Stated Maturity on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to
the Holders of the Obligations registered as such on the relevant Record Dates
according to the terms of such Obligations and the provisions of Section 3.09.

     If any Obligation called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender
thereof for redemption or as otherwise provided under Section 12.07 in lieu of
surrender, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest
from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Obligation.

     Section 12.07.  Obligations Redeemed in Part.

     Unless otherwise provided in any Supplemental Indenture, any Obligation
which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment
therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by,
or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the
Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in
writing) and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver to the Holder of such Obligation, without service charge, a new
Obligation or Obligations of the same series and maturity of any authorized
denomination or denominations as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal
amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of
the Obligation so surrendered.

     In lieu of surrender under the preceding paragraph, payment of the
Redemption Price of a portion of any Obligation held in the Book-Entry System
may be made directly to the Holder

                                      68
<PAGE>

thereof without surrender thereof, if there shall have been filed with the
Trustee either (1) a written agreement between the Company and such Holder and,
if such Holder is a nominee, the Person for whom such Holder is a nominee, that
payment shall be so made and that such Holder will not sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of such Obligation unless prior to delivery thereof such
Holder shall present such Obligation to the Trustee for notation thereon of the
portion of the principal thereof redeemed or shall surrender such Obligation in
exchange for a new Obligation or Obligations for the unredeemed balance of the
principal of the surrendered Obligation or (2) a certificate of the Company that
such an agreement has been entered into and remains in force.

     Section 12.08.  Applicability of Sections 12.08 through 12.10.

     The provisions of Sections 12.08 through 12.10 shall be applicable to any
sinking fund for the retirement of Obligations of a series except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 3.03 for Obligations of such series.

     The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of
Obligations of any series is herein referred to as a "mandatory sinking fund
payment," and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the
terms of Obligations of any series is herein referred to as an "optional sinking
fund payment."  If provided for by the terms of Obligations of any series, the
cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided
in Section 12.09. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption
of Obligations of any series as provided for by the terms of Obligations of such
series.

     Section 12.09.  Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Obligations.

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

     Section 12.10.  Redemption of Obligations for Sinking Fund.

     Not less than sixty (60) days prior to each sinking fund payment date for
any series of Obligations, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for
that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any,
which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any,
which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Obligations of that series
pursuant to Section 12.09 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Obligations
to be so delivered. Not less than thirty (30) days before each such sinking fund
payment date the Trustee shall select the Obligations to be redeemed upon such
sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 12.03 and cause
notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense
of the Company in

                                      69
<PAGE>

the manner provided in Section 12.04. Such notice having been duly given, the
redemption of such Obligations shall be made upon the terms and in the manner
stated in Sections 12.06 and 12.07.
