SECTION 1.3.  FORMS 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, or
representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations
with respect to matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are
erroneous. Any such certificate or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as
it relates to factual matters, 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
Company, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should
know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such
matters are erroneous.

         Where 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.

SECTION 1.4.  ACTS OF HOLDERS.

         (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given to or
taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of
substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent or
proxy duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly
provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments
is or are delivered to the Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required,
to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein
and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the
Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such
instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any
purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.1) conclusive in favor of
the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section.

         (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such
execution or by the certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized
by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing
such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such
execution is by a Person acting in other than his individual capacity, such
certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his
authority.

         (c) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may
also be proved in any other

                                       11
<PAGE>

manner which the Trustee deems sufficient and in accordance with such reasonable
rules as the Trustee may determine.

         (d) The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Securities
Register.

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

         (f) The Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose
of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to
give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be
given, made or taken by Holders of Securities of such series, provided that the
Company may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph
shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice,
declaration, request or direction referred to in the next paragraph. If any
record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding
Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no other Holders,
shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders
remain Holders after such record date, provided that no such action shall be
effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date
by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such
series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to
prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a
record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the
record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person
be canceled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed
to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal
amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action
is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the
Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the
proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the
Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in
the manner set forth in Section 1.6.

         The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of
determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to join
in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of
acceleration referred to in Section 5.2, (iii) any request to institute
proceedings referred to in Section 5.7(2) or (iv) any direction referred to in
Section 5.12, in each case with respect to Securities of such series. If any
record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding
Securities of such series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be
entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or
not such Holders remain Holders after such record date, provided that no such
action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable
Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding
Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall
be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any
action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this
paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with
no action by any Person be canceled and

                                       12
<PAGE>

of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render
ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of
Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken.
Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee,
at the Company's expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed
action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company
in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner
set forth in Section 1.6.

         With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party
hereto which sets such record dates may designate any day as the "Expiration
Date" and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or
later day, provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the
proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and
to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in
Section 10.6, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date
is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section,
the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially
designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with
respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided
in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be
later than the 180th day after the applicable record date.

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

SECTION 1.5.  NOTICES, ETC. TO TRUSTEE AND COMPANY.

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

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

         (2) the Company by the Trustee, any Holder or any holder of
Capital Securities shall be sufficient for every purpose (except as otherwise
provided in Section 5.1) hereunder if in writing and mailed, first class,
postage prepaid, to the Company, addressed to it at the address of its principal
office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any other
address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company.

SECTION 1.6.  NOTICE TO HOLDERS; WAIVER.

         Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such
notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided)
if in writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected
by such event, at the address of such Holder as it

                                       13
<PAGE>

appears in the Securities Register, not later than the latest date, and not
earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any
case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such
notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall
affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this
Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in
writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after
the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of
notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be
a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such
waiver.

SECTION 1.7.  CONFLICT WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT.

         If any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with
the duties imposed by any of Sections 310 to 317, inclusive, of the Trust
Indenture Act through operation of Section 318(c) thereof, such imposed duties
shall control.

SECTION 1.8.  EFFECT OF HEADINGS AND TABLE OF CONTENTS.

         The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are
for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

SECTION 1.9.  SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

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

SECTION 1.10.  SEPARABILITY CLAUSE.

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

SECTION 1.11.  BENEFITS OF INDENTURE.

         Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied,
shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors and
assigns, the Holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt, the Holders of the
Securities and, to the extent expressly provided in Sections 5.2, 5.8, 5.9,
5.11, 5.13, 9.1 and 9.2, the holders of Capital Securities, any benefit or any
legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

SECTION 1.12.  GOVERNING LAW.

accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

SECTION 1.13.  NON-BUSINESS DAYS.

         In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated
Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any
other provision of this Indenture or the Securities) payment of interest or
principal (and premium, if any) need not be made on such date, but may be made
on the next succeeding Business Day (and no interest shall accrue for the period
from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity,
as the case may be, until such next succeeding Business Day except that, if such
Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made
on the immediately preceding Business Day (in each case with the same force and
effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date or at the
Stated Maturity)).

addition to or in lieu of that set forth in Section 2.4 and any circumstances in
addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Section 3.5 in which any such
Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered,
and any transfer of such Global Security in whole or in part may be registered,
in the name or names of Persons other than the Depositary for such Global
Security or a nominee thereof;

         (p) the appointment of any Paying Agent or Agents for the Securities of
such series;

         (q) the terms of any right to convert or exchange Securities of
such series into any other securities or property of the Company, and the
additions or changes, if any, to this

                                       18
<PAGE>

Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series to permit or facilitate
such conversion or exchange;

         (r) the form or forms of the Trust Agreement, Amended and Restated
Trust Agreement and Guarantee Agreement, if different from the forms attached

series shall be senior to or be subordinated to other series of Securities in
right of payment, whether such other series of Securities are Outstanding or
not; and

         (t) any other terms of the Securities of such series (which terms
shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture).

         All Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical
except as to denomination and except as may otherwise be provided herein or in
or pursuant to such Board Resolution and set forth in such Officers' Certificate
or in any such indenture supplemental hereto.

         If any of the terms of the series are established by action taken
pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of an appropriate record of such action
shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and
delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers'
Certificate setting forth the terms of the series.

         The Securities shall be subordinated in right of payment to Senior and
Subordinated Debt as provided in Article XIII.

SECTION 3.2.  DENOMINATIONS.

         The Securities of each series shall be in registered form without
coupons and shall be issuable in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, unless otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 3.1.

SECTION 3.3.  EXECUTION, AUTHENTICATION, DELIVERY AND DATING.

         The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its
President or one of its Vice Presidents under its corporate seal reproduced or
impressed thereon and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant
Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be
manual or facsimile.

         Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals
who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such
offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not
hold such offices at the date of such Securities. At any time and from time to
time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver
Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for
authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and
delivery of such Securities, and the

                                       19
<PAGE>

Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such
Securities. If the form or terms of the Securities of the series have been
established by or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by
Sections 2.1 and 3.1, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the
additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities,
the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.1) shall be
fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating,

         (1) if the form of such Securities has been established by or
pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 2.1, that such form has
been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

         (2) if the terms of such Securities have been established by or
pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 3.1, that such terms have
been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and

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

         If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall not
be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities
pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's own rights, duties or
immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner
which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

         Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1 and of the preceding
paragraph, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one
time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers' Certificate otherwise
required pursuant to Section 3.1 or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel
otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the
authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered
at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security
of such series to be issued.

         Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

         No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Security a
certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein
executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized
officers, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence,
and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and
delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have
been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the
Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for
cancellation as provided in Section 3.9, for all purposes of this Indenture such
Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered
hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

                                       20

SECTION 3.4.  TEMPORARY SECURITIES.

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

         If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will
cause definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable
delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities
shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary
Securities at the office or agency of the Company designated for that purpose
without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more
temporary Securities, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more definitive Securities
of the same series of authorized denominations having the same Original Issue
Date and Stated Maturity and having the same terms as such temporary Securities.
Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects
be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities
of such series.

SECTION 3.5.  REGISTRATION, TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE.

         The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may
prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of
transfers of Securities. Such register is herein sometimes referred to as the
"Securities Register." The Trustee is hereby appointed "Securities Registrar"
for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein
provided.

         Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at the
office or agency of the Company designated for that purpose the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same
series of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, of
the same Original Issue Date and Stated Maturity and having the same terms.

         At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for other
Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations, of a like
aggregate principal amount, of the same Original Issue Date and Stated Maturity
and having the same terms, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at
such office or agency. Whenever any securities are so surrendered for exchange,
the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the
Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

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

                                       21
<PAGE>

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

         No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any transfer or
exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any transfer or exchange of Securities.

         No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any transfer or
exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any transfer or exchange of Securities.

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

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

         (2) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no
Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered,
and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in
the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a
nominee thereof unless (A) such Depositary (i) has notified the Company that it
is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or
(ii) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act at a
time when the Depositary is required to be so registered to act as depositary,
in each case unless the Company has approved a successor Depositary within
ninety (90) days, (B) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of
Default with respect to such Global Security, (C) the Company in its sole
discretion determines that such Global Security will be so exchangeable or
transferable or (D) there shall exist such circumstances, if any, in addition to
or in lieu of the foregoing as have been specified for this purpose as
contemplated by Section 3.1.

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

         (4) Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration
of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any
portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Section, Section 3.4, 3.6, 9.6 or 11.6
or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be,
a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person
other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

                                       22
<PAGE>

         Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be required, pursuant to the
provisions of this Section, (a) to issue, transfer or exchange any Security of
any series during a period beginning at the opening of business fifteen (15)
days before the day of selection for redemption of Securities pursuant to
Article XI and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of notice
of redemption or (b) to transfer or exchange any Security so selected for
redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any Security to be
redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed.

SECTION 3.6.  MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST AND STOLEN SECURITIES.

         If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee together with
such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company or the Trustee to
save each of them harmless, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same issue
and series of like tenor and principal amount, having the same Original Issue
Date and Stated Maturity, and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding.

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

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

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

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

         The provisions of this Section 3.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to
the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement
or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

                                       23

SECTION 3.7.  PAYMENT OF INTEREST; INTEREST RIGHTS PRESERVED.

         Interest on any Security 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 Security (or one or more Predecessor
Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date
for such interest in respect of Securities of such series, except that, unless
otherwise provided in the Securities of such series, interest payable on the
Stated Maturity of the principal of a Security shall be paid to the Person to
whom principal is paid. The initial payment of interest on any Security of any
series which is issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest
Payment Date shall be payable as provided in such Security or in the Board
Resolution pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to the related series of
Securities.

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

         (1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to
the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series in respect of which
interest is in default (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are
registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of
such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The
Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest
proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and
at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money
equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted
Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit
prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held
in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as
in this Clause provided. Thereupon, the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date
for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than fifteen
(15) days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment
and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the
proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special
Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause
notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record
Date therefor to be mailed, first class, postage prepaid, to each Holder of a
Security of such series at the address of such Holder as it appears in the
Securities Register not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. The
Trustee may, in its discretion, in the name and at the expense of the Company,
cause a similar notice to be published at least once in a newspaper, customarily
published in the English language on each Business Day and of general
circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, but such
publication shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment of such
Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest
and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such
Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of
such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such
Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following
Clause (2).

                                       24
<PAGE>

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

         Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.7, each Security
delivered under this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of
any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to
accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

SECTION 3.8.  PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS.

         The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee
may treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the owner of
such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject
to Section 3.7) any interest on such Security and for all other purposes
whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company,
the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.

SECTION 3.9.  CANCELLATION.

         All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer or
exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be
delivered to the Trustee, and any such Securities and Securities surrendered
directly to the Trustee for any such purpose shall be promptly canceled by it.
The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any
Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company
may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered
shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated
in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this
Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled
Securities shall be destroyed by the Trustee and the Trustee shall deliver to
the Company a certificate of such destruction.

SECTION 3.10.  COMPUTATION OF INTEREST.

         Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for
Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series for any
period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve (12) 30-day
months and interest on the Securities of each series for any partial period
shall be computed on the basis of the number of days elapsed in a 360-day year
of twelve (12) 30-day months.

SECTION 3.11.  DEFERRALS OF INTEREST PAYMENT DATES.

         If specified as contemplated by Section 2.1 or Section 3.1 with respect
to the Securities of a particular series, so long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have the right, at any time during
the term of such series, from time to time to defer the

                                       25
<PAGE>

payment of interest on such Securities for such period or periods as may be
specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 (each, an "Extension Period") during
which Extension Periods the Company shall have the right to make partial
payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date. No Extension Period shall end
on a date other than an Interest Payment Date. At the end of any such Extension
Period the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid on the
Securities (together with Additional Interest thereon, if any, at the rate
specified for the Securities of such series to the extent permitted by
applicable law); provided, however, that no Extension Period shall extend beyond
the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities of such series; provided,
further, that during any such Extension Period, the Company shall not, and shall
not permit any Subsidiary to, (i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions
on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to,
any of the Company's capital stock (which includes common and preferred stock)
or make any guarantee payment with respect thereto, or (ii) make any payment of
principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem
any debt securities of the Company (including Securities other than the
Securities of such series) that ranks pari passu with or junior to the
Securities of such series or (iii) make any guarantee payments with respect to
any guarantee by the Company of the debt securities of any Subsidiary of the
Company (including Compass Guarantees other than the Compass Guarantee related
to the Capital Securities issued by the Compass Trust holding Securities of such
series) if such guarantee rank pari passu with or junior in interest to the
securities of such series (other than (a) dividends or distributions in
additional shares of the Company's capital stock where the dividend stock is the
same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid, (b) any declaration of a
dividend in connection with the implementation of a stockholders' rights plan,
or the issuance of stock under any such plan in the future or the redemption or
repurchase of any such rights pursuant thereto, (c) payments under the Compass
Guarantee related to the Capital Securities issued by the Compass Trust holding
Securities of such series, (d) purchases of Common Stock related to the issuance
of Common Stock or rights under any of the Company's benefit plans for its
directors, officers or employees), and (e) the payment of dividends by a
Subsidiary to the Company. Prior to the termination of any such Extension
Period, the Company may further extend such Extension Period, provided that such
extension does not cause such Extension Period to extend beyond the Stated
Maturity of the principal of such Securities. Upon termination of any Extension
Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and any
Additional Interest then due on any Interest Payment Date, the Company may elect
to begin a new Extension Period, subject to the above requirements. No interest
shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except at the end thereof.
The Company shall give the Trustee, the Property Trustee and the Administrative
Trustees of the Compass Trust holding Securities of such series notice of its
election of any Extension Period (or an extension thereof) at least five
Business Days prior to the earlier of (i) the next succeeding date on which
Distributions on the Capital Securities of such Compass Trust would be payable
except for the election to begin or extend such Extension Period or (ii) the
date the Administrative Trustees of such Compass Trust are required to give
notice to any automated quotation system or to holders of such Capital
Securities of the record date or the date such Distributions are payable, but in
any event not less than five Business Days prior to such record date.

         The Trustee shall promptly give notice of the Company's election to
begin any such Extension Period to the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of
such series.

SECTION 3.12.  [RESERVED]

SECTION 3.13.  AGREED TAX TREATMENT.

         Each Security issued hereunder shall provide that the Company and, by
its acceptance of a Security or a beneficial interest therein, the Holder of,
and any Person that acquires a beneficial interest in, such Security agree that
for United States Federal, state and local tax purposes it is intended that such
Security constitute indebtedness.

SECTION 3.14.  SHORTENING OR EXTENSION OF STATED MATURITY.

         If specified as contemplated by Section 2.1 or Section 3.1 with respect
to the Securities of a particular series, the Company shall have the right to
(i) shorten the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities of such
series at any time to any date not earlier than the first date on which the
Company has the right to redeem the Securities of such series, and (ii) extend
the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities of such series at any
time at its election for one or more periods, but in no event to a date later
than the 49th anniversary of the first Interest Payment Date following the
Original Issue Date of the Securities of such series; provided that, if the
Company elects to exercise its right to extend the Stated Maturity of the
principal of the Securities of such series pursuant to clause (ii) above, at the
time such election is made and at the time of extension (A) the Company is not
in bankruptcy, otherwise insolvent or in liquidation, (B) the Company is not in
default in the payment of any interest or principal on such Securities, (C) in
the case of any series of Securities issued to a Compass Trust, such Compass
Trust is not in arrears on payments of Distributions on the Capital Securities
issued by such Compass Trust and no deferred Distributions are accumulated and
(D) such Securities are rated not less than BBB- by S&P or Baa3 by Moody's or
the equivalent by any other nationally recognized statistical rating
organization. In the event the Company elects to shorten or extend the Stated
Maturity of the Securities of any series, it shall give notice to the Trustee,
and the Trustee shall give notice of such shortening or extension to the Holders
thereof no less than thirty (30) and no more than sixty (60) days prior to the
effectiveness thereof.

SECTION 3.15.  CUSIP NUMBERS.

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

                     ARTICLE IV - SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

SECTION 4.1.  SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE.

         This Indenture shall, upon Company Request, cease to be of further
effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for and as otherwise provided
in this Section 4.1) and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the
Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture, when

         (1) either

been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.6 and (ii) Securities for whose
payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in
trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from
such trust, as provided in Section 10.3) have been delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation; or

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

             (i) have become due and payable, or

             (ii) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within
         one year of the date of deposit, or

and the Company, in the case of Clause (B) (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for
such purpose an amount in the currency or currencies in which the Securities of

Interest) to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have
become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the
case may be;

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the
obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 6.7, the obligations of
the Trustee to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.14 and, if money shall
have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (1) of

determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if
any) and interest for the payment of which such money or obligations have been
deposited with or received by the Trustee.

SECTION 5.1.  EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

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

         (1) default in the payment of any interest upon any Security of
that series, including any Additional Interest in respect thereof, when it
becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of thirty
(30) days (subject to the deferral of any due date in the case of an Extension
Period); or

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

         (3) default in the performance, or breach, in any material
respect, of any covenant or warranty of the Company in this Indenture (other
than a covenant or warranty a default in the performance of which or the breach
of which is elsewhere in this Section 5.1 specifically dealt with), and
continuance of such default or breach for a period of sixty (60) days after
there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the
Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice
specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied; or

         (4) the entry of a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction
in the premises adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as
properly filed a petition seeking

                                       29
<PAGE>

reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the
Company under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other similar law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator,
assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Company or of
any substantial part of its property or ordering the winding up or liquidation
of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in
effect for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days; or

         (5) the institution by the Company of proceedings to be
adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the institution of
bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against it, or the filing by it of a
petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any
applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other
similar law, or the consent by it to the filing of any such petition or to the
appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other
similar official) of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or
the making by it of an assignment for the benefit for creditors, or the
admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they
become due and its willingness to be adjudicated a bankrupt, or the taking of
corporate action by the Company in furtherance of any such action; or

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

SECTION 5.2.  ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT.

         If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in
Section 5.1(4) or 5.1(5)) with respect to Securities of any series at the time
Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or
the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if the
Securities of that series are Discount Securities, such portion of the principal
amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of all the Securities of
that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the
Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), provided that, in the case of
the Securities of a series issued to a Compass Trust, if, upon an Event of
Default, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of that series fail to declare the principal of all
the Securities of that series to be immediately due and payable, the holders of
at least 25% in aggregate liquidation amount of the corresponding series of
Capital Securities then outstanding shall have such right by a notice in writing
to the Company and the Trustee; and upon any such declaration such principal
amount (or specified portion thereof) of and the accrued interest (including any
Additional Interest) on all the Securities of such series shall become
immediately due and payable. Payment of principal and interest (including any
Additional Interest) on such Securities shall remain subordinated to the extent
provided in Article XIII notwithstanding that such amount shall become
immediately due and payable as herein provided. If an Event of Default specified
in Section 5.1(4) or 5.1(5) with respect to Securities of any series at the time
Outstanding occurs, the principal amount of all the Securities of that series
(or, if the Securities of that series are Discount Securities, such portion of
the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified by the terms of that
series) shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the
part of the Trustee or any Holder, become immediately due and payable.

                                       30
<PAGE>

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

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

             (A) all overdue installments of interest (including any Additional
         Interest) on all Securities of that series,

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

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

         (2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that
series, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities of that series
which has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as
provided in Section 5.13.

         In the case of Securities of a series issued to a Compass Trust, the
holders of a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount (as defined in the Trust
Agreement under which such Compass Trust is formed) of the related series of
Capital Securities issued by such Compass Trust shall also have the right to
rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences by written notice to the
Company and the Trustee subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth
in Clauses (1) and (2) above of this Section 5.2.

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

SECTION 5.3.  COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY TRUSTEE.

         The Company covenants that if:

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

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

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable
on such Securities for principal,

                                       31
<PAGE>

including any sinking fund payment or analogous obligations (and premium, if
any) and interest (including any Additional Interest); and, in addition thereto,
all amounts owing the Trustee under Section 6.7.

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

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

SECTION 5.4.  TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

         In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the
Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their
creditors,

         (a) the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the
Securities of any series 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 (and
premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest)) shall be
entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

             (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal
         (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest)
         owing and unpaid in respect to the Securities and to file such other
         papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable and to take any
         and all actions as are authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in
         order to have the claims of the Holders and any predecessor to the
         Trustee under Section 6.7 allowed in any such judicial proceedings; and

             (ii) in particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and
         receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such
         claims and to distribute the same in accordance with Section 5.6; and

         (b) 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 for
distribution in accordance with Section 5.6, and in the event that the

                                       32
<PAGE>

Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to
pay to the Trustee any amount due to it and any predecessor Trustee under
Section 6.7.

         Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to
authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities
or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in
respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding; provided, however,
that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a
trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors' or
other similar committee.

SECTION 5.5.  TRUSTEE MAY ENFORCE CLAIM WITHOUT POSSESSION OF SECURITIES.

         All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities
may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of
the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and
any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name
as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after
provision for the payment of all the amounts owing the Trustee and any
predecessor Trustee under Section 6.7, its agents and counsel, be for the
ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such
judgment has been recovered.

SECTION 5.6.  APPLICATION OF MONEY COLLECTED.

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

         FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee and any
predecessor Trustee under Section 6.7;

         SECOND: Subject to Article XIII, to the payment of the amounts then due
and unpaid upon such series of Securities for principal (and premium, if any)
and interest (including any Additional Interest), in respect of which or for the
benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or
priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such series of
Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest (including any
Additional Interest), respectively; and

         THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Person or Persons entitled thereto.

SECTION 5.7.  LIMITATION ON SUITS.

         No Holder of any Securities of any series shall have any right to
institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture
or for the appointment of a receiver, assignee,

                                       33
<PAGE>

trustee, liquidator, sequestrator (or other similar official) or for any other
remedy hereunder, unless:

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

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

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

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

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

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

SECTION 5.8. UNCONDITIONAL RIGHT OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM AND
INTEREST; DIRECT ACTION BY HOLDERS OF CAPITAL SECURITIES.

         Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of
any Security shall have the right which is absolute and unconditional to receive
payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.7)
interest (including any Additional Interest) on such Security on the respective
Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on
the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such
payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such
Holder. In the case of Securities of a series issued to a Compass Trust, any
holder of the corresponding series of Capital Securities issued by such Compass
Trust shall have the right, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described
in Section 5.1(1) or 5.1(2), to institute a suit directly against the Company
for enforcement of payment to such holder of principal of (premium, if any) and
(subject to Section 3.7) interest (including any Additional Interest) on the
Securities having a principal amount equal to the aggregate Liquidation Amount
(as defined in the Trust Agreement under which such Compass Trust is formed) of
such Capital Securities of the corresponding series held by such holder.

<PAGE>

SECTION 5.9.  RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

         If the Trustee, any Holder or any holder of Capital Securities 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, such Holder or such holder of Capital
Securities, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee, the Holders
and such holder of Capital Securities shall, subject to any determination in
such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former
positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee, the
Holders and the holders of Capital Securities shall continue as though no such
proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 5.10.  RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

         Except as otherwise provided in the last paragraph of Section 3.6, 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 5.11.  DELAY OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER.

         No delay or omission of the Trustee, any Holder of any Security or any
holder of any Capital Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any
Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of
any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.

         Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee
or to the Holders and the right and remedy given to the holders of Capital
Securities by Section 5.8 may be exercised from time to time, and as often as
may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee, the Holders or the holders of Capital
Securities, as the case may be.

SECTION 5.12.  CONTROL BY HOLDERS.

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

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

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

                                       35
<PAGE>

         (3) subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the Trustee shall
have the right to decline to follow such direction if a Responsible Officer or
Officers of the Trustee shall, in good faith, determine that the proceeding so
directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not joining in any such
direction or would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

SECTION 5.13.  WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS.

         The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of any series and, in the case of any Securities of a
series issued to a Compass Trust, the holders of Capital Securities issued by
such Compass Trust may waive any past default hereunder and its consequences
with respect to such series except a default:

         (1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
(including any Additional Interest) on any Security of such series, or

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

         Any such waiver shall be deemed to be on behalf of the Holders of all
the Securities of such series or, in the case of a waiver by holders of Capital
Securities issued by such Compass Trust, by all holders of Capital Securities
issued by such Compass Trust.

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

SECTION 5.14.  UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS.

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

SECTION 5.15.  WAIVER OF USURY, STAY OR EXTENSION LAWS.

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

                            ARTICLE VI - THE TRUSTEE

SECTION 6.1.  CERTAIN DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.

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

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

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

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

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

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

                                       37
<PAGE>

                  (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
         taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
         direction of Holders pursuant to Section 5.12 relating to the time,
         method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available
         to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the
         Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such
         series.

         (d) 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 there shall be reasonable grounds for believing that
repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is
not reasonably assured to it.

         (e) 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 6.1.

SECTION 6.2.  NOTICE OF DEFAULTS.

         Within ninety (90) days after actual knowledge by a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee of the occurrence of any default hereunder with respect to the
Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of
Securities of such series, as their names and addresses appear in the Securities
Register, notice of such default, unless such default shall have been cured or
waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment
of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional
Interest) on any Security of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in
withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive
committee or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the
Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the
interests of the Holders of Securities of such series; and provided, further,
that, in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 5.1(3),
no such notice to Holders of Securities of such series shall be given until at
least thirty (30) days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this
Section, the term "default" means any event which is, or after notice or lapse
of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to Securities of
such series.

SECTION 6.3.  CERTAIN RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.

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

instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond,

of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney; and

         (g) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder
or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or
negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it
hereunder.

SECTION 6.4.  NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR RECITALS OR ISSUANCE OF SECURITIES.

         The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the

Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other

SECTION 6.6.  MONEY HELD IN TRUST.

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

SECTION 6.7.  COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT.

The Company agrees

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

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

         (3) to indemnify the Trustee (which shall include its directors,
officers, employees and agents) for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss,
liability or expense (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and
disbursements of its agents and counsel) incurred without negligence or bad
faith, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of
this trust or the performance of 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. This
indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and the
resignation or removal of the Trustee.

         To secure the Company's payment obligations in this Section 6.7, the
Company and the Holders agree that the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the
Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee. Such lien
shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

         When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of
Default specified in Section 5.1(4) or (5) occurs, the expenses and the
compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 or any successor statute.

SECTION 6.8.  DISQUALIFICATION; CONFLICTING INTERESTS.

         The Trustee for the Securities of any series issued hereunder shall be
subject to the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. Nothing
herein shall prevent the Trustee from filing with the Commission the application
referred to in the second to last paragraph of said Section 301(b).

SECTION 6.9.  CORPORATE TRUSTEE REQUIRED; ELIGIBILITY.

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be

         (a) a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of
the United States of America or of any State or Territory or the District of
Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and
subject to supervision or examination by Federal, State, Territorial or District
of Columbia authority, or

         (b) a corporation or other Person organized and doing business
under the laws of a foreign government that is permitted to act as Trustee
pursuant to a rule, regulation or order of the Commission, authorized under such
laws to exercise corporate trust powers, and subject to supervision or

thereof substantially equivalent to supervision or examination applicable to
United States institutional trustees,

in either case having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000,
subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such
corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or
to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then,
for the purposes of this Section 6.9, the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth
in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section
6.9, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter
specified in this Article VI. Neither the Company nor any Person directly or
indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Company
shall serve as Trustee for the Securities of any series issued hereunder.

SECTION 6.10.  RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL; APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR.

         (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of
a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 6.11.

         (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the
Securities of one or more series 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 with respect to the
Securities of such series.

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

                                       41
<PAGE>

         (d) If at any time:

         (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 6.8 after
written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona
fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

         (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.9 and
shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any
such Holder, or

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

then, in any such case, (i) the Company, acting pursuant to the authority of a
Board Resolution, may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii)
subject to Section 5.14, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a
Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others
similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal
of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor
Trustee or Trustees.

         (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 with
respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board
Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of that or those series. If, within one year after such resignation,
removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee
with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such
series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee
so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become
the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and
supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor
Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so
appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner
hereinafter provided, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security
for at least six months may, subject to Section 5.14, on behalf of himself and
all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such
series.

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

SECTION 6.11.  ACCEPTANCE OF APPOINTMENT BY SUCCESSOR.

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

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

         (c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall
execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and
confirming to such successor Trustee all rights, powers and trusts referred to
in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 6.11, as the case may be.

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

SECTION 6.12. MERGER, CONVERSION, CONSOLIDATION OR SUCCESSION TO BUSINESS.

         Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or
with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any
corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust
business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder,
provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this
Article VI, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on
the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been
authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor
by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt
such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated, and in case any
Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may
authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor Trustee or in
the name of such successor Trustee, and in all cases the certificate of
authentication shall have the full force which it is provided anywhere in the
Securities or in this Indenture that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

SECTION 6.13.  PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY.

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

SECTION 6.14.  APPOINTMENT OF AUTHENTICATING AGENT.

         The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect
to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf
of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original
issue and upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof
or pursuant to Section 3.6, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to
the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all
purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is
made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the
Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be
deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the
Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States of America, or of any State or Territory or
the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating
Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and
subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such
Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant
to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then
for the purposes of this Section 6.14 the combined capital and surplus of such
Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as
set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 6.14, such Authenticating Agent shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 6.14.

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

         An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice
thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate
the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such
Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of
resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 6.14, the Trustee may appoint a successor
Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give
notice of such appointment in the manner provided in Section 1.6 to all Holders
of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will
serve. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment
hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an
Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed
unless eligible under the provision of this Section 6.14.

         The Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to
time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section 6.14, and the
Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the
provisions of Section 6.7.

         If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant
to this Section 6.14, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon,
in addition to the Trustee's certificate of authentication, an alternative
certificate of authentication in the following form:

         This is one of the Securities referred to in the within mentioned
Indenture.

         Upon any consolidation or merger by the Company with or into any other

into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the
Trustee, provided, however, that the

                                       48
<PAGE>

form and terms of Securities of any series may be established by a Board
Resolution, as set forth in the Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee
pursuant to Section 3.1, without entering into a supplemental indenture for all
purposes hereunder, for any of the following purposes:

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

         (2) to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge any property
to or with the Trustee or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon

are expressly being included solely for the benefit of such series) or to
surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company; or

         (5) to add any additional Events of Default for the benefit of the
Holders of all or any series of Securities (and if such additional Events of
Default are to be for the benefit of less than all series of Securities, stating
that such additional Events of Default are expressly being included solely for
the benefit of such series); or

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

         (7) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision
herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision herein,
or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising
under this Indenture, provided that such action pursuant to this clause (7)
shall not adversely affect the interest of the Holders of Securities of any
series in any material respect or, in the case of the Securities of a series
issued to a Compass Trust and for so long as any of the corresponding series of
Capital Securities issued by such Compass Trust shall remain outstanding, the
holders of such Capital Securities; or

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

         (9) to comply with the requirements of the Commission in order to

SECTION 9.2.  SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES WITH CONSENT OF HOLDERS.

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

         (1) except to the extent permitted by Section 3.11 or as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 2.1 or Section 3.1 with respect to the
deferral of the payment of interest on the Securities of any series, change the
Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest (including
any Additional Interest) on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount
thereof or the rate of interest thereon or reduce any premium payable upon the
redemption thereof, or reduce the amount of principal of a Discount Security
that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity
thereof pursuant to Section 5.2, or change the place of payment where, or the
coin or currency in which, any Security or 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

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

         (3) modify any of the provisions of this Section, Section 5.13 or
Section 10.5, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain
other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the
consent of the Holder of each Security affected thereby; or

         (4) modify the provisions in Article XIII of this Indenture with
respect to the subordination of Outstanding Securities of any series in a manner
adverse to the Holders thereof;

provided, further, that, in the case of the Securities of a series issued to a
Compass Trust, so long as any of the corresponding series of Capital Securities
issued by such Compass Trust remains outstanding, (i) no such amendment shall be
made that adversely affects the holders of such Capital Securities in any
material respect, and no termination of this Indenture shall occur, and no
waiver of any Event of Default or compliance with any covenant under this
Indenture shall be effective, without the prior consent of the holders of at
least a majority of the aggregate liquidation preference of such Capital
Securities then outstanding unless and until the principal (and premium, if any)
of the Securities of such series and all accrued and, subject to Section 3.7,
unpaid interest (including any Additional Interest) thereon have been paid in
full and (ii) no amendment shall be made to Section 5.8 of this Indenture that
would impair the rights of the

                                       50
<PAGE>

holders of Capital Securities provided therein without the prior consent of the
holders of each Capital Security then outstanding unless and until the principal
(and premium, if any) of the Securities of such series and all accrued and
(subject to Section 3.7) unpaid interest (including any Additional Interest)
thereon have been paid in full.

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

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

SECTION 9.3.  EXECUTION OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

         In executing or accepting the additional series of Securities created
by any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications
thereby of any series of Securities previously created by this Indenture, the
Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.1) shall be
fully protected in relying upon, an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized
or permitted by this Indenture, and that all conditions precedent have been
complied with. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any
such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or
immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

SECTION 9.4.  EFFECT OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

         Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article IX
or delivery to the Trustee of the Officers' Certificate pursuant to Section 3.1
hereof (which Officers' Certificate shall have the effect of a supplemental
indenture for all purposes hereunder), this Indenture shall be modified in
accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this
Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or
thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.

SECTION 9.5.  CONFORMITY WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT.

         Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article IX and
every Officers' Certificate delivered to the trustee pursuant to Section 3.1
hereof shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in
effect.

SECTION 9.6.  REFERENCE IN SECURITIES TO SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

         Securities authenticated and delivered after the execution of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article IX or delivery to the Trustee of
the Officers' Certificate pursuant to

                                       51
<PAGE>

Section 3.1 hereof (which Officers' Certificate shall have the effect of a
supplemental indenture for all purposes hereunder) may, and shall if required by
the Company, bear a notation in form approved by the Company as to any matter
provided for in such supplemental indenture or such Officers' Certificate. If
the Company shall so determine, new Securities of any series so modified as to
conform, in the opinion of the Company, to any such supplemental indenture or
such Officers's Certificate may be prepared and executed by the Company and
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding
Securities of such series.

                             ARTICLE X - COVENANTS

SECTION 10.1.  PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM AND INTEREST.

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

SECTION 10.2.  MAINTENANCE OF OFFICE OR AGENCY.

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

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

SECTION 10.3.  MONEY FOR SECURITY PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST.

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

                                       52
<PAGE>

         Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents, it will,
prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on each due date of the principal of or
interest on any Securities, 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 Persons 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 failure so to act.

         The Company will cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to
execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent
shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.3,
that such Paying Agent will:

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

         (2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any
other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any payment of principal
(and premium, if any) or interest:

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

         (4) comply with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to
it as a Paying Agent.

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

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

                                       53
<PAGE>

such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which
shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date of such publication, any
unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

SECTION 10.4.  STATEMENT AS TO COMPLIANCE.

         The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end
of each calendar year of the Company ending after the date hereof, an Officers'
Certificate covering the preceding calendar year, stating whether or not to the
best knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the
performance, observance or fulfillment of or compliance with any of the terms,
provisions, covenants and conditions of this Indenture, and if the Company shall
be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of
which they may have knowledge. For the purpose of this Section 10.4, compliance
shall be determined without regard to any grace period or requirement of notice
provided pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

SECTION 10.5.  WAIVER OF CERTAIN COVENANTS.

         The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any
covenant or condition provided pursuant to Sections 3.1, 9.1(3), or 9.1(4) with
respect to the Securities of any series, if before or after the time for such
compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either
waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such
covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such
covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such
waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company in respect of any
such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 10.6.  ADDITIONAL SUMS.

         In the case of the Securities of a series issued to a Compass Trust, so
long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and except as
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.1 or Section 3.1, in the event
that (i) such Compass Trust is the Holder of all of the Outstanding Securities
of such series, (ii) a Special Event in respect of such Compass Trust shall have
occurred and be continuing and (iii) the Company shall not have (A) redeemed the
Securities of such series pursuant to Section 11.7(b) or (B) terminated such
Compass Trust pursuant to Section 9.2(b) of the related Trust Agreement, the
Company shall pay to such Compass Trust (and its permitted successors or assigns
under the related Trust Agreement) for so long as such Compass Trust (or its
permitted successor or assignee) is the registered holder of any Securities of
such series, such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the
amount of Distributions (including any Additional Amounts (as defined in such
Trust Agreement)) then due and payable by such Compass Trust on the related
Capital Securities and Common Securities that at any time remain outstanding in
accordance with the terms thereof shall not be reduced as a result of any
Additional Taxes (the "Additional Sums"). Whenever in this Indenture or the
Securities there is a reference in any context to the payment of principal of or
interest on the Securities, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of
the payments of the Additional Sums provided for in this paragraph to the extent
that, in such context, Additional

                                       54
<PAGE>

Sums are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions
of this paragraph and express mention of the payment of Additional Sums (if
applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding
Additional Sums in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not
made; provided, however, that the deferral of the payment of interest pursuant
to Section 3.11 or the Securities shall not defer the payment of any Additional
Sums that may be due and payable.

SECTION 10.7.  ADDITIONAL COVENANTS.

         The Company covenants and agrees with each Holder of Securities of any
series that it shall not, and it shall not permit any Subsidiary of the Company
to, (a) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem purchase,
acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of the
Company's capital stock (which includes common and preferred stock), or (b) make
any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay,
repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company (including Securities
other than the Securities of such series) that rank pari passu with or junior in
interest to the Securities of such series or make any guarantee payments with
respect to any guarantee by the Company of debt securities of any subsidiary of
the Company (including Compass Guarantees other than the Compass Guarantee
related to the Capital Securities issued by the Compass Trust holding Securities
of such series) if such guarantee ranks pari passu with or junior in interest to
the Securities (other than (a) dividends or distributions in Common Stock of the
Company, (b) any declaration of a dividend in connection with the implementation
of a rights plan or the issuance of stock under any such plan or the redemption
or repurchase of any such rights pursuant thereto, (c) payments under the
Compass Guarantee related to the Capital Securities issued by the Compass Trust
holding Securities of such series, and (d) purchases of Common Stock related to
the issuance of Common Stock or rights under any of the Company's benefit plans
for its directors, officers or employees) if at such time (i) there shall have
occurred any event of which the Company has actual knowledge that (A) with the
giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of
Default with respect to the Securities of such series and (B) in respect of
which the Company shall not have taken reasonable steps to cure, (ii) if the
Securities of such series are held by a Compass Trust, the Company shall be in
default with respect to its payment of any obligations under the Compass
Guarantee relating to the Capital Securities issued by such Compass Trust or
(iii) the Company shall have given notice of its election to begin an Extension
Period with respect to the Securities of such series as provided herein and
shall not have rescinded such notice, or such Extension Period, or any extension
thereof, shall be continuing.

         The Company also covenants with each Holder of Securities of a series
issued to a Compass Trust (i) to maintain directly or indirectly 100% ownership
of the Common Securities of such Compass Trust; provided, however, that any
permitted successor of the Company hereunder may succeed to the Company's
ownership of such Common Securities, (ii) not to voluntarily terminate, wind-up
or liquidate such Compass Trust, except (a) in connection with a distribution of
the Securities of such series to the holders of Trust Securities in liquidation
of such Compass Trust or (b) in connection with certain mergers, consolidations
or amalgamations permitted by the related Trust Agreement and (iii) to use its
reasonable efforts, consistent with the terms and provisions of such Trust
Agreement, to cause such Compass Trust to remain

                                       55
<PAGE>

classified as a grantor trust and not an association taxable as a corporation
for United States federal income tax purposes.

                      ARTICLE XI - REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

SECTION 11.1.  APPLICABILITY OF THIS ARTICLE.

         Redemption of Securities of any series (whether by operation of a
sinking fund or otherwise) as permitted or required by any form of Security
issued pursuant to this Indenture shall be made in accordance with such form of
Security and this Article; provided, however, that if any provision of any such
form of Security shall conflict with any provision of this Article, the
provision of such form of Security shall govern. Except as otherwise set forth
in the form of Security for such series, each Security of such series shall be
subject to partial redemption only in the amount of $100,000 or, in the case of
the Securities of a series issued to a Compass Trust, $100,000, or integral
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

SECTION 11.2.  ELECTION TO REDEEM; NOTICE TO TRUSTEE.

         The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced
by or pursuant to a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election
of the Company of less than all of the Securities of any particular series and
having the same terms, the Company shall, not less than thirty (30) nor more
than sixty (60) days prior to the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall
be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such date and of the
principal amount of Securities of that series to be redeemed. In the case of any
redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such
redemption provided in the terms of such Securities, the Company shall furnish
the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel evidencing
compliance with such restriction.

SECTION 11.3.  SELECTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REDEEMED.

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

         The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the
Securities selected for partial redemption and the principal amount thereof to
be redeemed. For all purposes of this

                                       56
<PAGE>

Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the
redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Security redeemed or
to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such
Security which has been or is to be redeemed. If the Company shall so direct,
Securities registered in the name of the Company, any Affiliate or any
Subsidiary thereof shall not be included in the Securities selected for
redemption.

SECTION 11.4.  NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.

         Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage
prepaid, mailed not later than the thirtieth day, and not earlier than the
sixtieth day, prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be
redeemed, at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Securities
Register.

         With respect to Securities of each series to be redeemed, each notice
of redemption shall state:

         (a) the Redemption Date;

         (b) the Redemption Price;

         (c) if less than all Outstanding Securities of such particular
series and having the same terms are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in
the case of partial redemption, the respective principal amounts) of the
particular Securities to be redeemed;

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

         (e) the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for
payment of the Redemption Price; and

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

         Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of
the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the
Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company and shall not be
irrevocable. The notice if mailed in the manner herein provided shall be
conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder
receives such notice. In any case, a failure to give such notice by mail or any
defect in the notice to the Holder of any Security designated for redemption as
a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the
redemption of any other Security.

SECTION 11.5.  DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE.

         Prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date specified
in the notice of redemption given as provided in Section 11.4, the Company will
deposit with the Trustee or with one or more Paying Agents (or if the Company is
acting as its own Paying Agent, the

                                       57
<PAGE>

Company will segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.3) an amount
of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and any accrued interest
(including Additional Interest) on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed
on that date.

SECTION 11.6.  PAYMENT OF SECURITIES CALLED FOR REDEMPTION.

         If any notice of redemption has been given as provided in Section 11.4,
the Securities or portion of Securities with respect to which such notice has
been given shall become due and payable on the date and at the place or places
stated in such notice at the applicable Redemption Price. On presentation and
surrender of such Securities at a Place of Payment in said notice specified, the
said securities or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and redeemed by
the Company at the applicable Redemption Price, together with accrued interest
(including any Additional Interest) to the Redemption Date; provided, however,
that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, installments of
interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date will be
payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor
Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record
Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.7.

         Upon presentation of any Security redeemed in part only, the Company
shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder
thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities of the same
series, of authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the
portion of the Security not redeemed so presented and having the same Original
Issue Date, Stated Maturity and terms. If a Global Security is so surrendered,
such new Security will also be a new Global Security.

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

more than sixty (60) days' notice to the Holders of the Debt Securities, to
prepay the Debt Securities, in whole but not in part, for cash within ninety
(90) days following the occurrence of such Special Event (the "90 Day Period")
at a prepayment price equal to the Special Event Prepayment Price. The Special
Event Prepayment Price shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York time, on the
date of such repayment or such earlier time as the Company determines, provided
that the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount sufficient to pay the
Special Event Prepayment Price by 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the date such
Special Event Prepayment Price is to be paid.

SECTION 11.8  OPTIONAL PREPAYMENT BY COMPANY.

         (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 11.8(b) and to the
provisions of this Article 11 hereof, the Company shall have the right to prepay

<PAGE>

Optional Prepayment Price. Any prepayment pursuant to this paragraph will be
made upon not less than thirty (30) days' nor more than sixty (60) days' notice
to the Holders of the Debt Securities. If the Debt Securities are only partially
prepaid pursuant to this Section 3.2, the Debt Securities will be prepaid pro
rata or by lot or by any other method utilized by the Trustee; provided, that if
at the time of prepayment the Debt Securities are registered as a Global
Security, the Depositary shall determine, in accordance with its procedures, the
principal amount of such Debt Securities held by each Holder of a Debt Security
to be prepaid. The Optional Prepayment Price shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon,
New York time, on the date of such prepayment or at such earlier time as the
Company determines provided that the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an
amount sufficient to pay the Optional Prepayment Price by 10:00 a.m., New York
time, on the date such Optional Prepayment Price is to be paid.

         (b) If a partial prepayment of the Debt Securities would result in
the delisting of the Capital Securities issued by the Trust from any national
securities exchange or other organization on which the Capital Securities are
then listed, the Company shall not be permitted to effect such partial
prepayment and may only prepay the Debt Securities in whole.

                           ARTICLE XII - SINKING FUNDS

SECTION 12.1.  APPLICABILITY OF ARTICLE.

         The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund
for the retirement of Securities of any series except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 3.1 for such Securities. The minimum amount of any
sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of any Securities of any series
is herein referred to as a "mandatory sinking fund payment", and any sinking
fund payment in excess of such minimum amount which is permitted to be made by
the terms of such Securities of any series is herein referred to as an "optional
sinking fund payment". If provided for by the terms of any Securities of any
series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction
as provided in Section 12.2. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the
redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of such
Securities.

SECTION 12.2.  SATISFACTION OF SINKING FUND PAYMENTS WITH SECURITIES.

         In lieu of making all or any part of a mandatory sinking fund payment
with respect to any Securities of a series in cash, the Company may at its
option, at any time no more than 16 months and no less than thirty (30) days
prior to the date on which such sinking fund payment is due, deliver to the
Trustee Securities of such series (together with the unmatured coupons, if any,
appertaining thereto) theretofore purchased or otherwise acquired by the
Company, except Securities of such series that have been redeemed through the
application of mandatory or optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms
of the Securities of such series, accompanied by a Company Order instructing the
Trustee to credit such obligations and stating that the Securities of such
series were originally issued by the Company by way of bona fide sale or other
negotiation for value; provided that the Securities to be so credited have not
been previously so credited. The Securities to be so credited shall be received
and credited for such

                                       59
<PAGE>

purpose by the Trustee at the redemption price for such Securities, as specified
in the Securities so to be redeemed, for redemption through operation of the
sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced
accordingly.

SECTION 12.3.  REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES FOR SINKING FUND.

         Not less than sixty (60) days prior to each sinking fund payment date
for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an
Officers' Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund
payment for such Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, the
portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash in the
currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as provided
pursuant to Section 3.1) and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be
satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities pursuant to Section 12.2 and
will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Such
Officers' Certificate shall be irrevocable and upon its delivery the Company
shall be obligated to make the cash payment or payments therein referred to, if
any, on or before the succeeding sinking fund payment date. In the case of the
failure of the Company to deliver such Officers' Certificate (or, as required by
this Indenture, the Securities and coupons, if any, specified in such Officers'
Certificate), the sinking fund payment due on the succeeding sinking fund
payment date for such series shall be paid entirely in cash and shall be
sufficient to redeem the principal amount of the Securities of such series
subject to a mandatory sinking fund payment without the right to deliver or
credit securities as provided in Section 12.2 and without the right to make the
optional sinking fund payment with respect to such series at such time.

         Any sinking fund payment or payments (mandatory or optional) made in
cash plus any unused balance of any preceding sinking fund payments made with
respect to the Securities of any particular series shall be applied by the
Trustee (or by the Company if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent) on
the sinking fund payment date on which such payment is made (or, if such payment
is made before a sinking fund payment date, on the sinking fund payment date
immediately following the date of such payment) to the redemption of Securities
of such series at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities with respect
to the sinking fund. Any sinking fund moneys not so applied or allocated by the
Trustee (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregated and
held in trust by the Company as provided in Section 10.3) for such series and
together with such payment (or such amount so segregated) shall be applied in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.3. Any and all sinking fund
moneys with respect to the Securities of any particular series held by the
Trustee (or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregated and
held in trust as provided in Section 10.3) on the last sinking fund payment date
with respect to Securities of such series and not held for the payment or
redemption of particular Securities of such series shall be applied by the
Trustee (or by the Company if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent),
together with other moneys, if necessary, to be deposited (or segregated)
sufficient for the purpose, to the payment of the principal of the Securities of
such series at Maturity. The Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed
upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.3 and
cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the
expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.4. Such notice
having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the
terms and in the manner stated in Section 11.6. On or before each sinking fund
payment date, the Company shall pay to the Trustee (or, if

                                       60
<PAGE>

the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company shall segregate and
hold in trust as provided in Section 10.3) in cash a sum in the currency in
which Securities of such series are payable (except as provided pursuant to
Section 3.1) equal to the principal and any interest accrued to the Redemption
Date for Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed on such sinking fund
payment date pursuant to this Section 12.3.

         Neither the Trustee nor the Company shall redeem any Securities of a
series with sinking fund moneys or mail any notice of redemption of Securities
of such series by operation of the sinking fund for such series during the
continuance of a default in payment of interest, if any, on any Securities of
such series or of any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default occurring
as a consequence of this paragraph) with respect to the Securities of such
series, except that if the notice of redemption shall have been provided in
accordance with the provisions hereof, the Trustee (or the Company, if the
Company is then acting as its own Paying Agent) shall redeem such Securities if
cash sufficient for that purpose shall be deposited with the Trustee (or
segregated by the Company) for that purpose in accordance with the terms of this
Article XII. Except as aforesaid, any moneys in the sinking fund for such series
at the time when any such default or Event of Default shall occur and any moneys
thereafter paid into such sinking fund shall, during the continuance of such
default or Event of Default, be held as security for the payment of the
Securities and coupons, if any, of such series; provided, however, that in case
such default or Event of Default shall have been cured or waived herein, such
moneys shall thereafter be applied on the next sinking fund payment date for the
Securities of such series on which such moneys may be applied pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 12.3.

                   ARTICLE XIII - SUBORDINATION OF SECURITIES

SECTION 13.1.  SECURITIES SUBORDINATE TO SENIOR AND SUBORDINATED DEBT.

         The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Security, by its
acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in
the manner hereinafter set forth in this Article XIII, the payment of the
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional
Interest) on each and all of the Securities are hereby expressly made
subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all
amounts then due and payable in respect of all Senior and Subordinated Debt.

SECTION 13.2.  PAYMENT OVER OF PROCEEDS UPON DISSOLUTION, ETC.

         In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
judicial proceeding relative to the Company (each event, if any, herein
sometimes referred to as a "Proceeding"), then the holders of Senior and
Subordinated Debt shall be entitled to receive payment in full of Allocable
Amounts of such Senior and Subordinated Debt, or provision shall be made for
such payment in cash or cash equivalents or otherwise in a manner satisfactory
to the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt, before the Holders of the
Securities are entitled to receive or retain any payment or distribution of any
kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (including any
payment or distribution which may be payable or deliverable by reason of the
payment of any other Debt of the Company subordinated to the payment of the
Securities, such

                                       61
<PAGE>

payment or distribution being hereinafter referred to as a "Junior Subordinated
Payment"), on account of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
(including any Additional Interest) on the Securities or on account of the
purchase or other acquisition of Securities by the Company or any Subsidiary and
to that end the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt shall be entitled to
receive, for application to the payment thereof, any payment or distribution of
any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, including any
Junior Subordinated Payment, which may be payable or deliverable in respect of
the Securities in any such Proceeding.

         In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 13.2, the Trustee or the Holder of any Security shall have received any
payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character,
whether in cash, property or securities, including any Junior Subordinated
Payment, before all Allocable Amounts of all Senior and Subordinated Debt are
paid in full or payment thereof is provided for in cash or cash equivalents or
otherwise in a manner satisfactory to the holders of Senior and Subordinated
Debt, and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment or
distribution, have been made known to the Trustee or, as the case may be, such
Holder, then and in such event such payment or distribution shall be paid over
or delivered forthwith to the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating
trustee, custodian, assignee, agent or other Person making payment or
distribution of assets of the Company for application to the payment of all
Allocable Amounts of all Senior and Subordinated Debt remaining unpaid, to the
extent necessary to pay all Allocable Amounts of all Senior and Subordinated
Debt in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to
or for the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt.

         For purposes of this Article XIII only, the words "any payment or
distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities"
shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or
readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for
by a plan of reorganization or readjustment which securities are subordinated in
right of payment to all then outstanding Senior and Subordinated Debt to
substantially the same extent as the Securities are so subordinated as provided
in this Article XIII. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of
the Company into, another Person or the liquidation or dissolution of the
Company following the sale of all or substantially all of its properties and
assets as an entirety to another Person upon the terms and conditions set forth
in Article VIII shall not be deemed a Proceeding for the purposes of this
Section 13.2 if the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the
Company is merged or the Person which acquires by sale such properties and
assets as an entirety, as the case may be, shall, as a part of such
consolidation, merger, or sale comply with the conditions set forth in Article
VIII.

SECTION 13.3. PRIOR PAYMENT TO SENIOR AND SUBORDINATED DEBT UPON ACCELERATION OF
SECURITIES.

         In the event that any Securities are declared due and payable before
their Stated Maturity, then and in such event the holders of the Senior and
Subordinated Debt outstanding at the time such Securities so become due and
payable shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all Allocable Amounts
due on or in respect of such Senior and Subordinated Debt (including any amounts
due upon acceleration), or provision shall be made for such payment in cash or
cash equivalents or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to the holders of Senior
and Subordinated Debt,

                                       62
<PAGE>

before the Holders of the Securities are entitled to receive any payment or
distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, properties or securities
(including any Junior Subordinated Payment) by the Company on account of the
principal of (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional
Interest) on the Securities or on account of the purchase or other acquisition
of Securities by the Company or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that nothing
in this Section 13.3 shall prevent the satisfaction of any sinking fund payment
in accordance with this Indenture or as otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 3.1 for the Securities of any series by delivering and crediting
pursuant to Section 12.2 or as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section
3.1 for the Securities of any series Securities which have been acquired (upon
redemption or otherwise) prior to such declaration of acceleration.

         In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall
make any payment to the Trustee or the Holder of any Security prohibited by the
foregoing provisions of this Section 13.3, and if such fact shall, at or prior
to the time of such payment, have been made known to the Trustee or, as the case
may be, such Holder, then and in such event such payment shall be paid over and
delivered forthwith to the Company.

         The provisions of this Section 13.3 shall not apply to any payment with
respect to which Section 13.2 would be applicable.

SECTION 13.4.  NO PAYMENT WHEN SENIOR AND SUBORDINATED DEBT IN DEFAULT.

         (a) In the event and during the continuation of any default in the
payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Senior and
Subordinated Debt, or in the event that any event of default with respect to any
Senior and Subordinated Debt shall have occurred and be continuing and shall
have resulted in such Senior and Subordinated Debt becoming or being declared
due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due
and payable, unless and until such event of default shall have been cured or
waived or shall have ceased to exist and such acceleration shall have been
rescinded or annulled, or (b) in the event any judicial proceeding shall be
pending with respect to any such default in payment or such event or default,
then no payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash,
properties or securities (including any Junior Subordinated Payment) shall be
made by the Company on account of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
(including any Additional Interest), if any, on the Securities or on account of
the purchase or other acquisition of Securities by the Company or any
Subsidiary, in each case unless and until all Allocable Amounts of such Senior
and Subordinated Debt are paid in full; provided, however, that nothing in this
Section 13.4 shall prevent the satisfaction of any sinking fund payment in
accordance with this Indenture or as otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 3.1 for the Securities of any series by delivering and crediting
pursuant to Section 12.2 or as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section
3.1 for the Securities of any series Securities which have been acquired (upon
redemption or otherwise) prior to such default in payment or event of default.

         In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall
make any payment to the Trustee or the Holder of any Security prohibited by the
foregoing provisions of this Section 13.4, and if such fact shall, at or prior
to the time of such payment, have been made known to the

                                       63
<PAGE>

Trustee or, as the case may be, such Holder, then and in such event such payment
shall be paid over and delivered forthwith to the Company.

         The provisions of this Section 13.4 shall not apply to any payment with
respect to which Section 13.2 would be applicable.

SECTION 13.5.  PAYMENT PERMITTED IF NO DEFAULT.

         Nothing contained in this Article XIII or elsewhere in this Indenture
or in any of the Securities shall prevent (a) the Company, at any time except
during the pendency of any Proceeding referred to in Section 13.2 or under the
conditions described in Sections 13.3 and 13.4, from making payments at any time
of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest (including Additional
Interest) on the Securities, or (b) the application by the Trustee of any money
deposited with it hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of
(and premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on the
Securities or the retention of such payment by the Holders, if, at the time of
such application by the Trustee, it did not have knowledge that such payment
would have been prohibited by the provisions of this Article XIII.

SECTION 13.6.  SUBROGATION TO RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF SENIOR AND SUBORDINATED DEBT.

         Subject to the payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on
all Senior and Subordinated Debt, or the provision for such payment in cash or
cash equivalents or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to the holders of Senior
and Subordinated Debt, the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the
extent of the payments or distributions made to the holders of such Senior and
Subordinated Debt pursuant to the provisions of this Article XIII (equally and
ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company which by its express
terms is subordinated to Senior and Subordinated Debt of the Company to
substantially the same extent as the Securities are subordinated to the Senior
and Subordinated Debt and is entitled to like rights of subrogation by reason of
any payments or distributions made to holders of such Senior and Subordinated
Debt) to the rights of the holders of such Senior and Subordinated Debt to
receive payments and distributions of cash, property and securities applicable
to the Senior and Subordinated Debt until the principal of (and premium, if any)
and interest on the Securities shall be paid in full. For purposes of such
subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior and
Subordinated Debt of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders of
the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of
this Article, and no payments over pursuant to the provisions of this Article
XIII to the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt by Holders of the Securities
or the Trustee, shall, as among the Company, its creditors other than holders of
Senior and Subordinated Debt, and the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be
a payment or distribution by the Company to or on account of the Senior and
Subordinated Debt.

SECTION 13.7.  PROVISIONS SOLELY TO DEFINE RELATIVE RIGHTS.

         The provisions of this Article XIII are and are intended solely for the
purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities on the
one hand and the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt on the other hand.
Nothing contained in this Article XIII or elsewhere in this

                                       64
<PAGE>

Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall (a) impair, as between
the Company and the Holders of the Securities, the obligations of the Company,
which are absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities
the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional
Interest) on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in
accordance with their terms; or (b) affect the relative rights against the
Company of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company other than
their rights in relation to the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt; or (c)
prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security from exercising all remedies
otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture
including, without limitation, filing and voting claims in any Proceeding,
subject to the rights, if any, under this Article XIII of the holders of Senior
and Subordinated Debt to receive cash, property and securities otherwise payable
or deliverable to the Trustee or such Holder.

SECTION 13.8.  TRUSTEE TO EFFECTUATE SUBORDINATION.

         Each Holder of a Security by his or her acceptance thereof authorizes
and directs the Trustee on his or her behalf to take such action as may be
necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination provided
in this Article XIII and appoints the Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for
any and all such purposes.

SECTION 13.9.  NO WAIVER OF SUBORDINATION PROVISIONS.

         No right of any present or future holder of any Senior and Subordinated
Debt to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be
prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company
or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any
noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this
Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or
be otherwise charged with.

         Without in any way limiting the generality of the immediately preceding
paragraph, the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt may, at any time and from
to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of the
Securities, without incurring responsibility to the Holders of the Securities
and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article or
the obligations hereunder of the Holders of the Securities to the holders of
Senior and Subordinated Debt, do any one or more of the following: (i) change
the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew
or alter, Senior and Subordinated Debt, or otherwise amend or supplement in any
manner Senior and Subordinated Debt or any instrument evidencing the same or any
agreement under which Senior and Subordinated Debt is outstanding; (ii) sell,
exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or
otherwise securing Senior and Subordinated Debt; (iii) release any Person liable
in any manner for the collection of Senior and Subordinated Debt; and (iv)
exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and any other
Person.

SECTION 13.10.  NOTICE TO TRUSTEE.

         The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any fact
known to the Company which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the
Trustee in respect of the Securities. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Article XIII or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be
charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the
making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities, unless
and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written
notice thereof from the Company or a holder of Senior and Subordinated Debt or
from any trustee, agent or representative therefor; provided, however, that if
the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section
13.10 at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms
hereof any monies may become payable for any purpose (including, without
limitation, the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest
(including any Additional Interest) on any Security), then, anything herein
contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and
authority to receive such monies and to apply the same to the purpose for which
they were received and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which
may be received by it within two Business Days prior to such date.

         Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the Trustee shall be entitled
to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing
himself to be a holder of Senior and Subordinated Debt (or a trustee therefor)
to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior and
Subordinated Debt (or a trustee therefor). In the event that the Trustee
determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the
right of any Person as a holder of Senior and Subordinated Debt to participate
in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article, the Trustee may request
such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as
to the amount of Senior and Subordinated Debt held by such Person, the extent to
which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and
any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article, and
if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such
Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive
such payment.

SECTION 13.11.  RELIANCE ON JUDICIAL ORDER OR CERTIFICATE OF LIQUIDATING AGENT.

         Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to
in this Article XIII, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, and
the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree
entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such Proceeding is
pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating
trustee, custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other Person
making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders
of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to
participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of the Senior and
Subordinated Debt and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or
payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other
facts pertinent thereto or to this Article XIII.

SECTION 13.12.  TRUSTEE NOT FIDUCIARY FOR HOLDERS OF SENIOR AND SUBORDINATED
DEBT.

         The Trustee, in its capacity as trustee under this Indenture, shall not
be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior and Subordinated
Debt and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall in good faith
mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders of Securities or to the Company or
to any other Person cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior
and Subordinated Debt shall be entitled by virtue of this Article or otherwise.

SECTION 13.13.  RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE AS HOLDER OF SENIOR AND SUBORDINATED DEBT;
PRESERVATION OF TRUSTEE'S RIGHTS.

         The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the
rights set forth in this Article XIII with respect to any Senior and
Subordinated Debt which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any
other holder of Senior and Subordinated Debt, and nothing in this Indenture
shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.

SECTION 13.14.  ARTICLE APPLICABLE TO PAYING AGENTS.

         In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have
been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term "Trustee"
as used in this Article XIII shall in such case (unless the context otherwise
requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within
its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were
named in this Article XIII in addition to or in place of the Trustee.

SECTION 13.15.  CERTAIN CONVERSIONS OR EXCHANGES DEEMED PAYMENT.

         For the purposes of this Article XIII only, (a) the issuance and
delivery of junior securities upon conversion or exchange of Securities shall
not be deemed to constitute a payment or distribution on account of the
principal of (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional
Interest) on Securities or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of
Securities, and (b) the payment, issuance or delivery of cash, property or
securities (other than junior securities) upon conversion or exchange of a
Security shall be deemed to constitute payment on account of the principal of
such security. For the purposes of this Section 13.15, the term "junior
securities" means (i) shares of any stock of any class of the Company and (ii)
securities of the Company which are subordinated in right of payment to all
Senior and Subordinated Debt which may be outstanding at the time of issuance or
delivery of such securities to substantially the same extent as, or to a greater
extent than, the Securities are so subordinated as provided in this Article
XIII.
