SECURITIES

SECTION 2.01Forms Generally.

The Securities and the Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A, the terms of which are incorporated in and made a part of this Indenture. The Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements
required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Company is subject or usage. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Securities shall be issued in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.

SECTION 2.02 Execution and Authentication.

An Officer shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Security is authenticated, the Security shall nevertheless be valid.

A Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of an authorized officer of the Trustee. The signature of an authorized officer of the Trustee shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this
Indenture. The form of Trustee's certificate of authentication to be borne by the Securities shall be substantially as set forth in Exhibit A hereto.

The Trustee shall, upon a Company Order, authenticate for original issue up to, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities outstanding at any time may not exceed the sum of, $5,155,000 aggregate principal amount of the Securities.

SECTION 2.03 Form and Payment.

Except for any Securities issued as Global Securities pursuant to Section 2.05, the Securities shall be issued in fully registered certificated form without interest coupons. Principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, Definitive Securities
will be payable, the transfer of such Securities will be registrable and such Securities will be exchangeable for Securities bearing identical terms and provisions at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose under Section 3.02;
provided, however, that payment of interest with respect to Definitive Securities may be made at the option of the Company (i) by check mailed to the Holder at such address as shall appear in the Security Register or (ii) by transfer to an account
maintained by the Person entitled thereto as specified in the Security Register, provided that proper transfer instructions have been received in writing by the relevant record date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Holder of any Securities
is the Property Trustee, the payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest (including Compounded Interest and Additional Interest, if any) on such Securities held by the Property Trustee will be made at such place and to such account as
may be designated by the Property Trustee.

SECTION 2.04 Legends.

(a)Except as permitted by subsection (b) of this Section 2.04 or as otherwise determined by the Company in accordance with applicable law, each Security shall bear an applicable legend relating to restrictions on transfer pursuant to the securities
laws (the "Restricted Securities Legend") in substantially the form of the restrictive legend contained in the form of Securities included as Exhibit A hereto.

(b)The Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate Series B Securities in exchange for Series A Securities accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offer, which Series B Securities shall not bear the Restricted Securities Legend except in
those cases where the Holder of the Series A Securities accepted for exchange is either (A) a broker-dealer who purchased such Series A Securities directly from the Company for resale pursuant to Rule 144A or any other available exemption under the
Securities Act, (B) a Person participating in the distribution of the Series A Securities or (C) a Person who is an affiliate (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Company.

SECTION 2.05 Global Security.

(a)In connection with a Dissolution Event,

(i)if any outstanding Capital Securities are in the form of Global Capital Securities, such Capital Securities shall be presented to the Trustee by the Property Trustee (if an arrangement with the Depositary has been maintained) in exchange for one
or more Global Securities (as may be required pursuant to Section 2.07) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Securities, to be registered in the name of the Depositary, or its nominee, and delivered
by the Trustee to the Depositary for crediting to the accounts of its participants pursuant to the instructions of the Administrative Trustees; the Company upon any such presentation shall execute one or more Global Securities in fully registered
certificated form in such aggregate principal amount and deliver the same to the Trustee for authentication and delivery in accordance with this Indenture, and payments on the Securities issued as a Global Security will be made to the Depositary; and

(ii)if any outstanding Capital Securities are in the form of Definitive Capital Securities, such Definitive Capital Securities may be presented to the Trustee by the Property Trustee and (A) if any Global Securities have been delivered by the
Trustee to the Depository under Section 2.05(a)(i), above, any certificate which represents Definitive Capital Securities will be deemed to represent beneficial interests in such Global Securities having an aggregate principal amount equal to the
aggregate liquidation amount of such Definitive Capital Securities until the certificate representing such is presented to the Security registrar for transfer or reissuance, at which time such certificate will be cancelled and Definitive Securities
registered in the name of the holder of the Definitive Capital Securities or the transferee of such holder, as the case may be, with an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of such Definitive Capital Securities will be
executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee for authentication and delivery in accordance with this Indenture, or (B) if no such Global Securities have been delivered by the Trustee to the Depository, any certificate which represents Definitive
Capital Securities will represent a right to receive Definitive Securities having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of such Definitive Capital Securities but shall not represent Definitive Securities or the right to
receive payments with respect thereto until such certificate is presented to the Security registrar for transfer or reissuance, at which time the cancellation of the surrendered certificate and the authentication and delivery of a certificate for
Definitive Securities will take place in accordance with the procedures specified in subsection (A), preceding.  Upon the issuance of such Definitive Securities in certificated form, Securities with an equivalent aggregate principal amount that were
issued as an interest in one or more Global Securities under Section 2.05(a)(i), if any, will be deemed to have been cancelled.

(b)Any Global Securities thus issued shall represent the aggregate amount of outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon; provided, that the aggregate amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be
reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and prepayments. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee, in
accordance with instructions given by the Company as required by this Section 2.05.

(c)Any Global Securities thus issued may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only to the Depositary, a nominee of the Depositary, a successor Depositary selected or approved by the Company or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

(d)If at any time a Depositary of Global Securities notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary or the Depositary has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor Depositary is
not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be, the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon Company Order, will authenticate and make available for delivery
Definitive Securities, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Securities in exchange for such Global Securities. If there is an Event of Default, the Depositary or the Trustee shall
have the right to exchange any Global Securities for Definitive Securities. In addition, the Company may at any time determine that any Securities represented by Global Securities shall no longer be represented by Global Securities. In either such event,
the Company shall execute, and subject to Section 2.07, the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, will authenticate and make available for delivery Definitive Securities, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
principal amount of the Global Securities in exchange for such Global Securities, and upon the exchange of the Global Securities for such Definitive Securities, in authorized denominations, the Global Securities shall be cancelled by the Trustee, and the
Definitive Securities issued in exchange for such Global Securities shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct
the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Definitive Securities to the Depositary for delivery to the Persons in whose names such Definitive Securities are so registered.

SECTION 2.06Interest.

(a)Each Security will bear interest at the rate of 9.50% per annum (the "Coupon Rate") from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest previously has been paid or duly provided for, from the date of
issuance of such Security until the principal thereof becomes due and payable and at the Coupon Rate on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue
installment of interest, compounded quarterly, payable (subject to the provisions of Article XVI) quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date") commencing on December 31, 1999, to
the Person in whose name such Security or any predecessor Security is registered, at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest installment, which shall be the fifteenth day prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date.

(b)Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and, for any period of less than a full calendar month, the number of days elapsed in such month. In the event that any Interest Payment Date falls on a
day that is not a Business Day, then payment of interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), with the same force and effect as if
made on such date.

(c)During such time as the Property Trustee is the Holder of any Securities, the Company shall pay any additional amounts on the Securities as may be necessary in order that the amount of Distributions then due and payable by the Trust on the
outstanding Trust Securities shall not be reduced as a result of any additional taxes, duties and other governmental charges to which the Trust has become subject as a result of a Tax Event ("Additional Interest")

SECTION 2.07 Transfer and Exchange.

(a)Transfer Restrictions. (i) The Series A Securities, and those Series B Securities with respect to which any Person described in Section 2.04(b)(A), (B) or (C) is the beneficial owner, may not be transferred except in compliance with the
Restricted Securities Legend unless otherwise determined by the Company in accordance with applicable law. Upon any distribution of the Securities following a Dissolution Event, the Company and the Trustee shall enter into a supplemental indenture
pursuant to Section 9.01 to provide for the transfer restrictions and procedures with respect to the Securities substantially similar to those contained in the Declaration to the extent applicable in the circumstances existing at such time.

(ii)Except as provided in a Company Order delivered to the Trustees, the Series A Securities will be issued and may be transferred only in blocks having an aggregate principal amount of not less than $100,000. Any such transfer of the Series A
Securities in a block having an aggregate principal amount of less than $100,000 shall be deemed to be voided and of no legal effect whatsoever. Any transferee of a block of Series A Securities having an aggregate principal amount of less than $100,000
shall be deemed not to be a Holder of such Securities for any purpose, including, but not limited to the receipt of payments on such Securities, and such transferee shall be deemed to have no interest whatsoever in such Securities.

(b)General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities and Global Securities, if any, at the Company's
request. All Definitive Securities and Global Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Definitive Securities or Global Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same
benefits under this Indenture, as the Definitive Securities or Global Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

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

The Company shall not be required to (i) issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of mailing of a notice of prepayment or any notice of selection of Securities
for prepayment under Article XIV hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing; or (ii) register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for prepayment in whole or in part, except the unprepaid portion of any Security
being prepaid in part.

Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Security, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security for the
purpose of receiving payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Securities, and neither the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent nor the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(c)Exchange of Series A Securities for Series B Securities. The Series A Securities may be exchanged for Series B Securities pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Offer. The Trustee shall make the exchange as follows:

The Company shall present the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate certifying the following:

(A)upon issuance of the Series B Securities, the transactions contemplated by the Exchange Offer have been consummated; and

(B)the principal amount of Series A Securities properly tendered in the Exchange Offer that are represented by Definitive Securities, the name of each Holder of such Definitive Securities, the principal amount at maturity properly tendered in the
Exchange Offer by each such Holder and the name and address to which Definitive Securities for Series B Securities shall be registered and sent for each such Holder; and 

(C)the principal amount of Series A Securities properly tendered in the Exchange Offer that are represented by one or more Global Securities, if any. 

The Trustee, upon receipt of (i) such Officers' Certificate, (ii) an Opinion of Counsel (x) to the effect that the Series B Securities have been registered under Section 5 of the Securities Act and the Indenture has been qualified under the Trust
Indenture Act, and (y) with respect to the matters set forth in Section 3(p) of the Registration Covenant and (iii) a Company Order, shall authenticate (A) Definitive Securities representing Series B Securities registered in the names of, and in the
principal amounts indicated in, such Officers' Certificate, and (B) one or more Global Securities for Series B Securities in aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Series A Securities represented by Global Securities, if
any, indicated in such Officers' Certificate as having been properly tendered. 

If the principal amount at maturity of any Global Securities for the Series B Securities is less than the principal amount at maturity of any Global Securities for the Series A Securities, the Trustee shall make an endorsement on the appropriate Global
Securities for Series A Securities indicating a reduction in the principal amount at maturity represented thereby.

The Trustee shall deliver such Definitive Securities for Series B Securities to the Holders thereof as indicated in such Officers' Certificate.

SECTION 2.08 Replacement Securities.

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, or the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement
Security if the Trustee's requirements for replacements of Securities are met. An indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, or any Authenticating
Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company or the Trustee may charge for its expenses in replacing a Security.

Every replacement Security is an obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

SECTION 2.09 Treasury Securities.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Securities owned by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company shall be considered as though not outstanding, except
that for purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Securities that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows to be so owned shall be so considered.

SECTION 2.10Temporary Securities.

Pending the preparation of Definitive Securities, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, temporary Securities that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or
otherwise reproduced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the Officers executing
such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

If temporary Securities are issued, the Company shall cause Definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. The Definitive Securities shall be printed, lithographed or engraved, or provided by any combination thereof, or in any other
manner permitted by the rules and regulations of any applicable securities exchange, all as determined by the Officers executing such Definitive Securities. 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 maintained by the Company for such purpose pursuant to Section 3.02 hereof, 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 make available for delivery, in exchange therefor the same aggregate principal amount of Definitive Securities of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary
Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Securities.

SECTION 2.11Cancellation.

The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall retain or destroy
cancelled Securities in accordance with its normal practices (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act) unless the Company directs by Company Order that such cancelled Securities be returned to it.  The Company may not issue new
Securities to replace Securities that have been paid or prepaid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

SECTION 2.12 Defaulted Interest.

Any interest on any Security that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date ("Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant regular record date by virtue of having
been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by the Company, at its election, as provided in clause (a) or clause (b) below:

(a)The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of
such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner: the Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time
the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed
payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which
shall be not more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such special
record date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Securityholder at his or her
address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted
Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such special record date and shall not be payable pursuant to the following clause (b).

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

SECTION 2.13 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 prepayment as a convenience to Securityholders; 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 prepayment and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such
prepayment shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

ARTICLE III

rescission thereof.

(a)The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of the Securities (1) contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 4.01 or
(2) received by it in the capacity of Securities registrar (if so acting) hereunder. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 4.01 upon receipt of a new list so furnished.

information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of Securities in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section 4.02, regardless of the source from which such information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held
accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under said subsection (b).

information, documents and reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 4.03 as may be required by rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission.

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

(e)So long as is required for an offer or sale of the Securities to qualify for an exemption under Rule 144A under the Securities Act, the Company shall, upon request, provide the information required by clause (d)(4) thereunder to each Holder and

ARTICLE V

REMEDIES OF THE TRUSTEE AND SECURITYHOLDERS

ON EVENT OF DEFAULT

SECTION 5.01 Events of Default.

One or more of the following events of default shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder (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):

(a)default in the payment of any interest upon any Security or any Other Debentures when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; provided, however, that a valid extension of an interest payment period by
the Company in accordance with the terms hereof or, in the case of any Other Debentures, the indenture related thereto, shall not constitute a default in the payment of interest for this purpose; or

(b)default in the payment of all or any part of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security or any Other Debentures as and when the same shall become due and payable either at maturity, upon prepayment, by declaration of acceleration or
otherwise; or

(c)default in the performance, or breach, 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 a breach of which is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt
with), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 90 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding Securities a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder; or

(d)a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a
receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or for any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and
in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or

(e)the Company shall commence a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, shall consent to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or shall
consent to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or shall make any general assignment for the
benefit of creditors, or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due.

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

The foregoing provisions, however, are subject to the condition that if, at any time after the principal of the Securities shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been
obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, (i) the Company shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay (a) all matured installments of interest upon all the Securities and the principal of (and premium, if any) on any and all
Securities which shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest upon such principal and premium, if any, and, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, on overdue installments of interest, at the
same rate as the rate of interest specified in the Securities to the date of such payment or deposit) and (b) such amount as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, their respective agents,
attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith, and (ii) any and all Events of Default under the Indenture, other
than the non-payment of the principal of the Securities which shall have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, shall have been cured, waived or otherwise remedied as provided herein, then, in every such case, the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences, but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect
any subsequent default or shall impair any right consequent thereon.

In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of such rescission or annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to
the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities shall be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Trustee and the
Holders of the Securities shall continue as though no such proceeding had been taken.

SECTION 5.02 Payment of Securities on Default; Suit Therefor.

The Company covenants that (a) in case default shall be made in the payment of any installment of interest upon any of the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable, and such default shall have continued for a period of 30 days, or
(b) in case default shall be made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) on any of the Securities as and when the same shall have become due and payable, whether at maturity of the Securities or upon prepayment or by declaration of
acceleration or otherwise, then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities, the whole amount that then shall have become due and payable on all such Securities for principal (and
premium, if any) or interest, or both, as the case may be, with interest upon the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law and, if the Securities are held by Arrow Capital
Trust I or a trustee of such trust, without duplication of any other amounts paid by Arrow Capital Trust I or trustee in respect thereof) upon the overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Securities; and, in addition thereto, such further
amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including reasonable compensation to the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel, and any expenses or liabilities incurred by the Trustee hereunder other than through its
negligence or bad faith.

In case the Company shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any actions or proceedings at law or in equity for the
collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company or any other obligor on the Securities and collect in the manner
provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor on the Securities wherever situated the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable.

In case there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company or any other obligor on the Securities under Title 11, United States Code, or any other applicable law, or in case a receiver or trustee shall have
been appointed for the property of the Company or such other obligor, or in the case of any other similar judicial proceedings relative to the Company or other obligor upon the Securities, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other
obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 5.02, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and, in case of any
judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and
their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) and of the Securityholders
allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any other obligor on the Securities, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the
Holders of the Securities in any election of a trustee or a standby trustee in arrangement, reorganization, liquidation or other bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or person performing similar functions in comparable proceedings, and to collect and
receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction of its charges and expenses; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby authorized by each
of the Securityholders to make such payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Securityholders, to pay to the Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable
compensation to the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee except as a result of negligence
or bad faith.

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

All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Securities, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities, or the production thereof in any trial or other proceeding relative
thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities.

In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and also any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party) the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Securities, and it
shall not be necessary to make any Holders of the Securities parties to any such proceedings.

SECTION 5.03 Application of Moneys Collected by Trustee.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any moneys collected by the Trustee shall be applied in the order following, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such moneys, upon presentation of the Securities in respect of
which moneys have been collected, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

First:To the payment of costs and expenses of collection applicable to the Securities and reasonable compensation to the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel, and of all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the
Trustee except as a result of its negligence or bad faith and all other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 6.06 and to the Delaware Trustee and the Property Trustee under the Declaration;

Second:To the payment of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company if and to the extent required by Article XV;

Third:In case the principal of the outstanding Securities in respect of which moneys have been collected shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon Securities for principal of (and premium, if
any) and interest on the Securities, in respect of which or for the benefit of which money has been collected, ratably, without preference of priority of any kind, according to the amounts due on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and
interest, respectively; and

Fourth:To the Company.

SECTION 5.04 Proceedings by Securityholders.

No Holder of any Security shall have any right by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a
receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof with respect to the Securities specifying such Event of Default, as
hereinbefore provided, and unless also the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as
Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and
offer of indemnity shall have failed to institute any such action, suit or proceeding, it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the taker and Holder of every Security with every other taker and Holder and the Trustee, that no
one or more Holders of Securities shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holder of Securities, or to obtain or seek to obtain
priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders of Securities.

Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, however, the right of any Holder of any Security to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Security, on or after the same shall have become due and payable,
or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder and by accepting a Security hereunder it is expressly understood, intended and covenanted by the taker and Holder of every
Security with every other such taker and Holder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Securities shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights
of the Holders of any other Securities, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit
of all Holders of Securities. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section, each and every Securityholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

The Company and the Trustee acknowledge that pursuant to the Declaration, the holders of Capital Securities are entitled, in the circumstances and subject to the limitations set forth therein, to commence a Direct Action with respect to any Event of
Default under this Indenture and the Securities.

SECTION 5.05 Proceedings by Trustee.

In case an Event of Default occurs with respect to Securities and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall
deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in
aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

SECTION 5.06 Remedies Cumulative and Continuing.

All powers and remedies given by this Article V to the Trustee or to the Securityholders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders of the
Securities, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture or otherwise established with respect to the Securities, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of
any Holder of any of the Securities to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or an acquiescence
therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 5.04, every power and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Trustee or to the Securityholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by
the Securityholders.

SECTION 5.07 Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Securityholders.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding 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; provided, however, that (subject to the provisions of Section 6.01) the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee shall determine that the action so directed would be unjustly
prejudicial to the Holders not taking part in such direction or if the Trustee being advised by counsel determines that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith by its board of directors or trustees,
executive committee, or a trust committee of directors or trustees and/or Responsible Officers shall determine that the action or proceedings so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to any declaration accelerating the maturity
of the Securities, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences except a Default (a)
in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any of the Securities or (b) in respect of covenants or provisions hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Security affected; provided,
however, that if the Securities are held by Property Trustee, such waiver or modification to such waiver shall not be effective until the holders of a majority in aggregate liquidation amount of Trust Securities shall have consented to such waiver or
modification to such waiver; provided further, that if the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Security is required, such waiver shall not be effective until each holder of the Trust Securities shall have consented to such waiver. Upon any such
waiver, the Default covered thereby shall be deemed to be cured for all purposes of this Indenture and the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 5.07, said Default or Event of Default shall for all
purposes of the Securities and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing.

SECTION 5.08 Notice of Defaults.

The Trustee shall, within 90 days after the occurrence of a default with respect to the Securities, mail to all Securityholders, as the names and addresses of such Holders appear upon the Security Register, notice of all defaults known to the Trustee,
unless such defaults shall have been cured before the giving of such notice (the term "defaults" for the purpose of this Section 5.08 being hereby defined to be the events specified in clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of Section 5.01, not including
periods of grace, if any, provided for therein, and irrespective of the giving of written notice specified in clause (c) of Section 5.01); and provided that, except in the case of default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
on any of the Securities, 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 Securityholders; and provided further, that in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 5.01(c) no such notice to Securityholders shall be given until at least 60 days
after the occurrence thereof but shall be given within 90 days after such occurrence.

SECTION 5.09 Undertaking to Pay 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 and expenses, 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 5.09 shall not apply to any suit
instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Securityholder, or group of Securityholders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities, or to any suit instituted by any Securityholder for
the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security against the Company on or after the same shall have become due and payable.

ARTICLE VI

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

SECTION 6.01 Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee.

With respect to the Holders of the Securities issued hereunder, the Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default that may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such
duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture. In case an Event of Default has occurred (which has not been cured or waived), the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care
and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

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

(a)prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default that may have occurred

(1)the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations 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 the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and
conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to
determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture;

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

(c)the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith, in accordance with the direction of the Securityholders pursuant to Section 5.07, 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.

None of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if
there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it under the terms of this Indenture or adequate indemnity against such risk is not reasonably assured to it.

SECTION 6.02 Reliance on Documents, Opinions, etc.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.01:

(a)the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, note, debenture, coupon or other paper or
document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

(b)any request, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein may be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers' Certificate (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed); and any Board Resolution may be
evidenced to the Trustee by a copy thereof certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company;

(c)the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and any advice or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance
with such advice or Opinion of Counsel;

(d)the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Securityholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such
Securityholders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby;

(e)the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; nothing contained herein shall, however,
relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (that has not been cured or waived), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their
exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs;

(f)the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, note, debenture, coupon or other
paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities; provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or
liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee may require reasonable
indemnity against such expense or liability as a condition to so proceeding; 

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

(h)the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities unless either (1) a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (2)
written notice of such Default or Event of Default shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company or by any Holder of the Securities.

SECTION 6.03 No Responsibility for Recitals, etc.

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities (except in the certificate of authentication of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent) shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee and the Authenticating Agent assume no
responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee and the Authenticating Agent make no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. The Trustee and the Authenticating Agent shall not be accountable
for the use or application by the Company of any Securities or the proceeds of any Securities authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture.

SECTION 6.04 Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar May Own Securities.

The Trustee or any Authenticating Agent or any paying agent or any transfer agent or any Security registrar, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and as such shall have the same rights it would have if
it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, paying agent, transfer agent or Security registrar.

SECTION 6.05 Moneys to be Held in Trust.

Subject to the provisions of Section 11.04, all moneys received by the Trustee or any paying agent shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purpose for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other
funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee and any paying agent shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Company. So long as no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, all interest allowed on any such moneys shall be paid from time to time upon the written order of the Company, signed by any Officer of the Company.

SECTION 6.06  Compensation and Expenses of Trustee.

The Company, as issuer of the Securities, covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such compensation as shall be agreed to in writing between the Company and the Trustee (which shall not be
limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust), and the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in
accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise
from its negligence or bad faith. The Company also covenants to indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee (and its officers, agents, directors and employees) for, and to hold them harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim,
liability or expense including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust,
including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability in the premises. The obligations of the Company under this Section 6.06 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses,
disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder. Such additional indebtedness shall be secured by a lien prior to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held
in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Securities.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(d) or Section 5.01(e), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the
services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.

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

SECTION 6.07 Officers' Certificate as Evidence.

Except as otherwise provided in Sections 6.01 and 6.02, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action
hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof is herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officers' Certificate
delivered to the Trustee, and such certificate, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.

SECTION 6.08 Conflicting Interest of Trustee.

If the Trustee has or shall acquire any "conflicting interest" within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee and the Company shall in all respects comply with the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.

SECTION 6.09 Eligibility of Trustee.

The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or any state or territory thereof or of the District of Columbia or a corporation or other Person permitted to act as
trustee by the Commission authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least 50 million U.S. dollars ($50,000,000) and subject to supervision or examination by federal, state, territorial, or
District of Columbia authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.09 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.

The Company may not, nor may any Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Company, serve as Trustee.

In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.09, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 6.10.

SECTION 6.10 Resignation or Removal of Trustee.

(a)The Trustee, or any trustee or trustees hereafter appointed, may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the Company and by mailing notice thereof to the Holders of the Securities at their addresses as they shall
appear on the Security Register. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee or trustees by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee
and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 60 days after the mailing of such notice of resignation to the affected Securityholders, the resigning Trustee may petition
any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee, or any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security for at least six months may, subject to the provisions of Section 5.09, on behalf of himself and all others
similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee.

(b)In case at any time any of the following shall occur:

(1)the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 6.08 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months, or

(2)the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Securityholder, 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, the Company may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject
to the provisions of Section 5.09, any Securityholder 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 and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

(c)The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding may at any time remove the Trustee and nominate a successor trustee, which shall be deemed appointed as successor trustee unless within 10 days
after such nomination the Company objects thereto or if no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted appointment within 30 days after such removal, in which case the Trustee so removed or any Securityholder, upon the terms and
conditions and otherwise as in subsection (a) of this Section 6.10 provided, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor trustee.

(d)Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 6.10 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 6.11.

SECTION 6.11 Acceptance by Successor Trustee.

Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 6.10 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, 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, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named
as Trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor trustee, the Trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.06, execute and deliver an
instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the Trustee so ceasing to act and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. Upon request
of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any Trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain
a lien upon all property or funds held or collected by such Trustee to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.06.

No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 6.11 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 6.08 and eligible under the provisions of Section 6.09.

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 6.11, the Company shall mail notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the Holders of Securities at their addresses as they shall appear on the Security
register. If the Company fails to mail such notice within 10 days after the acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Company.

SECTION 6.12 Succession by Merger, etc.

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 without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

In case at the time such successor trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor
trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name
of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which the Securities or this Indenture elsewhere provides that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the
certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

SECTION 6.13 Limitation on Rights of Trustee as a Creditor.

The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, excluding any creditor relationship described in Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) of the
Trust Indenture Act to the extent included therein.

SECTION 6.14 Authenticating Agents.

There may be one or more agents ("Authenticating Agents") appointed by the Trustee upon the request of the Company with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication and delivery of Securities issued upon exchange or
transfer thereof as fully to all intents and purposes as though any such Authenticating Agent had been expressly authorized to authenticate and deliver Securities; provided, that the Trustee shall have no liability to the Company for any acts or omissions
of the Authenticating Agent with respect to the authentication and delivery of Securities. Any such Authenticating Agent shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state or territory
thereof or of the District of Columbia authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and being subject to supervision or examination by federal, state, territorial or District of
Columbia authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually pursuant to law or the requirements of such authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.14 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 an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in
the manner and with the effect herein specified in this Section.

Any corporation into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any
corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, if such successor corporation is otherwise eligible under this Section 6.14 without the execution or filing
of any paper or any further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent.

Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such
Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible under this Section 6.14, the Trustee may, and upon the request of
the Company shall, promptly appoint a successor Authenticating Agent eligible under this Section 6.14, shall give written notice of such appointment to the Company and shall mail notice of such appointment to all Securityholders as the names and addresses
of such Holders appear on the Security Register. Any Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all rights, powers, duties and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally
named as Authenticating Agent herein.

The Company, as borrower, agrees to pay to any Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services. Any Authenticating Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any action taken by it as such in accordance with the
directions of the Trustee.

ARTICLE VII

CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS

SECTION 7.01 Action by Securityholders.

Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the Holders of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the
taking of any other action) the fact that at the time of taking any such action the Holders of such specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced (a) by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by such
Securityholders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing, or (b) by the record of such Holders of Securities voting in favor thereof at any meeting of such Securityholders duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII,
or (c) by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of such Securityholders.

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

SECTION 7.02 Proof of Execution by Securityholders.

Subject to the provisions of Sections 6.01, 6.02 and 8.05, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Securityholder or his agent or proxy shall be sufficient if made in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by
the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee. The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register or by a certificate of the Security registrar. The Trustee may require such additional proof of any matter referred
to in this Section as it shall deem necessary.

The record of any Securityholders' meeting shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 8.06.

SECTION 7.03 Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners.

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Security, the Company, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any paying agent, any transfer agent and any Security registrar may deem the Person in whose name such Security shall be
registered upon the Security Register to be, and may treat him as, the absolute owner of such Security (whether or not such Security shall be overdue) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of (and premium, if any) and
(subject to Section 2.06) interest on such Security and for all other purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent nor any paying agent nor any transfer agent nor any Security registrar shall be affected by any notice to
the contrary. All such payments so made to any Holder for the time being or upon his order shall be valid and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable upon any such Security.

SECTION 7.04Securities Owned by Company Deemed Not Outstanding.

In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture, Securities which are owned by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities or by
any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company, except Securities held by the Trust, or any other obligor on the Securities shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding
for the purpose of any such determination; provided that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver, only Securities which the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so
disregarded. Securities so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding for the purposes of this Section 7.04 if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right to vote such Securities and
that the pledgee is not the Company or any such other obligor or Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any such other obligor. In the case of a dispute as to such right,
any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee.

SECTION 7.05Revocation of Consents; Future Holders Bound.

At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 7.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities specified in this Indenture in connection with
such action, any Holder of a Security (or any Security issued in whole or in part in exchange or substitution therefor) the serial number of which is shown by the evidence to be included in the Securities the Holders of which have consented to such action
may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at its principal office and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 7.02, revoke such action so far as concerns such Security (or so far as concerns the principal amount represented by any exchanged or
substituted Security). Except as aforesaid any such action taken by the Holder of any Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Security, and of any Security issued in exchange or substitution
therefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Security or any Security issued in exchange or substitution therefor.

ARTICLE VIII

determine the time and the place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York for such meeting and may call such meeting to take any action authorized in Section 8.01, by mailing notice thereof as provided in Section 8.02.

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.04, at any meeting each Holder of Securities or proxy therefor shall be entitled to one vote for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities held or represented by him; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast

ARTICLE IX

SECTION 9.01Without Consent of Securityholders.

The Company and the Trustee may from time to time and at any time amend the Indenture, without the consent of the Securityholders, for one or more of the following purposes:

(a)to evidence the succession of another Person to the Company, or successive successions, and the assumption by the successor Person of the covenants, agreements and obligations of the Company pursuant to Article X hereof;

(b)to add to the covenants of the Company such further covenants, restrictions or conditions for the protection of the Securityholders as the Board of Directors and the Trustee shall consider to be for the protection of the Securityholders, and to
make the occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of a default in any of such additional covenants, restrictions or conditions a Default or an Event of Default permitting the enforcement of all or any of the remedies provided in this Indenture as
herein set forth; provided, however, that in respect of any such additional covenant, restriction or condition such amendment may provide for a particular period of grace after default (which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the case
of other Defaults) or may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such default or may limit the remedies available to the Trustee upon such default;

(c)to provide for the issuance under this Indenture of Securities in coupon form (including Securities registrable as to principal only) and to provide for exchangeability of such Securities with the Securities issued hereunder in fully registered
form and to make all appropriate changes for such purpose;

(d)to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture, or to make such
other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising under this Indenture; provided that any such action shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Securities;

(e)to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor trustee with respect to the Securities;

(f)to make provision for transfer procedures, certification, book-entry provisions, the exact form of the Restricted Securities Legend, if any, to be placed on Securities, and all other matters required pursuant to Section 2.07 or otherwise

(g)to qualify or maintain qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act, if appropriate; or

The Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Company in the execution of any supplemental indenture to effect such amendment, to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained and to accept the conveyance,
transfer and assignment of any property thereunder, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to, but may in its discretion, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or
otherwise.

Any amendment to this Indenture authorized by the provisions of this Section 9.02 may be executed by the Company and the Trustee without the consent of the Holders of any of the outstanding Securities, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section
9.02.

SECTION 9.02With Consent of Securityholders.

With the consent (evidenced as provided in Section 7.01) of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities, the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may from time to time and at any time
amend this Indenture for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities; provided, however, that no such
amendment shall without the consent of the Holders of each Security then outstanding and affected thereby (i) change the Maturity Date of any Security, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon (except as contemplated by Article

each outstanding Security is required, such amendment shall not be effective until each holder of the Trust Securities shall have consented to such amendment.

Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a copy of a Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any supplemental indenture effecting such amendment, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Securityholders as
aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may
in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture. The Trustee may receive an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article is authorized or permitted by,

or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Securityholders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.

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

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

SECTION 9.05Evidence of Compliance of Supplemental Indenture to be Furnished Trustee.

published by the United States Internal Revenue Service.

the applicable Prepayment Price, together with interest accrued (including Additional Interest and Compounded Interest) to the date fixed for prepayment (subject to the rights of Holders of Securities on the close of business on a regular record date in
respect of an Interest Payment Date occurring on or prior to the prepayment date), and on and after said date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of such Securities at the Prepayment Price, together with interest accrued to said date)

ARTICLE XV

SUBORDINATION OF SECURITIES

SECTION 15.01Agreement to Subordinate.

The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Securities issued hereunder likewise covenants and agrees, that the Securities shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Article XV; and each Holder of a Security, whether upon original issue
or upon transfer or assignment thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions.

The payment by the Company of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on all Securities issued hereunder shall, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and junior in right of payment to all Senior
Indebtedness, whether outstanding at the date of this Indenture or thereafter incurred.

No provision of this Article XV shall prevent the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder.

SECTION 15.02Default on Senior Indebtedness.

No payment of principal (including prepayment) of (or premium, if any) or interest on the Securities may be made at any time when (i) any Senior Indebtedness is not paid when due, (ii) any applicable grace period with respect to such default has ended
and such default on Senior Indebtedness has not been cured or waived or ceased to exist, or (iii) the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness has been accelerated because of a default.

In the event of the acceleration of the maturity of the Securities, then no payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal (including prepayments) of (or premium, if any) or interest on the Securities until the holders of all Senior
Indebtedness outstanding at the time of such acceleration shall receive payment in full of all amounts due in respect of such Senior Indebtedness (including any amounts due upon acceleration).

In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment shall be received by the Trustee when such payment is prohibited by the preceding paragraphs of this Section 15.02, such payment shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid
over or delivered to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their respective representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may
appear, but only to the extent that the holders of the Senior Indebtedness (or their representative or representatives or a trustee) notify the Trustee in writing, within 90 days of such payment of the amounts then due and owing on such Senior
Indebtedness, and only the amounts specified in such notice to the Trustee shall be paid to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

SECTION 15.03Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy.

Upon any payment by the Company or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether
voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings, all amounts due upon all Senior Indebtedness of the Company shall first be paid in full, or payment thereof provided for in money in accordance with its terms,
before any payment is made by the Company on account of the principal (and premium, if any) or interest with respect to the Securities; and upon any such dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization, any payment by the Company, or
distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, which the Securityholders or the Trustee would be entitled to receive from the Company, except for the provisions of this Article XV, shall be paid by
the Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, or by the Securityholders or by the Trustee under this Indenture if received by them or it, directly to the holders of
Senior Indebtedness of the Company (pro rata to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness held by such holders, as calculated by the Company) or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under
any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the extent necessary to pay such Senior Indebtedness in full, in money or money's worth, after giving
effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to the Securityholders or to the Trustee.

In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, prohibited by the foregoing, shall be received by the Trustee before all Senior
Indebtedness is paid in full, or provision is made for such payment in money in accordance with its terms, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of such Senior
Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, as calculated
by the Company, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such Senior Indebtedness in full in money in accordance with its terms, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution
to or for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

For purposes of this Article XV, the words "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, the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Article XV with respect to the Securities to the payment of Senior Indebtedness that may at the time be outstanding, provided that (i) such Senior
Indebtedness is assumed by the new corporation, if any, resulting from any such reorganization or readjustment, and (ii) the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness are not, without the consent of such holders, altered by such reorganization or
readjustment. 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, conveyance, transfer or lease of its property as an entirety, or substantially as
an entirety, to another Person upon the terms and conditions provided for in Article X of this Indenture shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section 15.03 if such other Person shall, as a
part of such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease, comply with the conditions stated in Article X of this Indenture. Nothing in Section 15.02 or in this Section 15.03 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or
pursuant to Section 6.05 of this Indenture.

SECTION 15.04Subrogation.

Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the rights of the Securityholders shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the
Company, as the case may be, applicable to such Senior Indebtedness until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities shall be paid in full; and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders
of such Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which the Securityholders or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article XV, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Article XV to or for the
benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness by Securityholders or the Trustee, shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, and the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment by
the Company to or on account of such Senior Indebtedness. It is understood that the provisions of this Article XV are and are intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the
holders of such Senior Indebtedness on the other hand.

Nothing contained in this Article XV or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, and the Holders of the
Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance
with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company, as the case may be, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, as the case may be, nor shall anything
herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article XV of the holders of such Senior
Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company, as the case may be, received upon the exercise of any such remedy.

Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article XV, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture, and the Securityholders shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order or decree
made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidation trustee, agent or other Person making such
payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Securityholders, for the purposes of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, as the case
may be, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article XV.

SECTION 15.05Trustee to Effectuate Subordination.

Each Securityholder by such Holder's acceptance of such Security authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Securityholder's behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this Article XV and
appoints the Trustee such Securityholder's attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

SECTION 15.06Notice by the Company.

The Company shall give prompt written notice to a Responsible Officer of any fact known to the Company that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article
XV. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article XV or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in
respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article XV, unless and until a Responsible Officer shall have received written notice thereof from the Company or a holder or holders of Senior Indebtedness or from any trustee therefor; and
before the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture, shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received the
notice provided for in this Section 15.06 at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or
interest on any Security), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the purposes for which it was received, and shall not be affected by
any notice to the contrary that may be received by it within two Business Days prior to such date.

The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture, shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Company (or a trustee
on behalf of such holder), to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of such Senior Indebtedness or a trustee on behalf of any such holder or holders. 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 such Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article XV, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article XV, 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.

Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article XV, the Trustee and the Securityholders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such insolvency,
bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution, winding up or similar case or proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, custodian, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent
or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Securityholders, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other
indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article XV.

SECTION 15.07Rights of the Trustee; Holders of Senior Indebtedness.

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

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

Nothing in this Article XV shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.06.

SECTION 15.08Subordination May Not Be Impaired.

No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness of the Company 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 otherwise be charged with.

Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Securityholders, without incurring
responsibility to the Securityholders and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article XV or the obligations hereunder of the Holders of the Securities to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, 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, such Senior Indebtedness, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner such Senior Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing the same or any
agreement under which such Senior Indebtedness is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing such Senior Indebtedness; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the
collection of such Senior Indebtedness; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and any other Person.

ARTICLE XVI

EXTENSION OF INTEREST PAYMENT PERIOD

SECTION 16.01Extension of Interest Payment Period.

So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have the right, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Securities, to defer payments of interest by extending the interest payment period of such
Securities for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarterly periods, including the first such quarterly period during such extension period (the "Extended Interest Payment Period"), during which Extended Interest Payment Period no interest shall be due
and payable; provided that no Extended Interest Payment Period shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date or may extend beyond the Maturity Date. To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest, the payment of which has been deferred
because of the extension of the interest payment period pursuant to this Section 16.01, will bear interest thereon at the Coupon Rate compounded quarterly for each quarterly period of the Extended Interest Payment Period ("Compounded Interest"). At the
end of the Extended Interest Payment Period, the Company shall pay all interest accrued and unpaid on the Securities, including any Additional Interest and Compounded Interest (together, "Deferred Interest") that shall be payable to the Holders of the
Securities in whose names the Securities are registered in the Security Register on the record date for the Interest Payment Date on which such Extended Interest Payment Period ends. Before the termination of any Extended Interest Payment Period, the
Company may further defer payments of interest by further extending such period, provided that such period, together with all such previous and further extensions within such Extended Interest Payment Period, shall not exceed 20 consecutive quarterly
periods, including the first such quarterly period during such Extended Interest Payment Period, or extend beyond the Maturity Date. Upon the termination of any Extended Interest Payment Period and the payment of all Deferred Interest then due, the
Company may elect to commence a new Extended Interest Payment Period, subject to the foregoing requirements. No interest shall be due and payable during an Extended Interest Payment Period, except at the end thereof, but the Company may prepay at any time
all or any portion of the interest accrued during an Extended Interest Payment Period.

SECTION 16.02Notice of Extension.

(a)If the Property Trustee is the only registered Holder of the Securities at the time the Company selects an Extended Interest Payment Period, the Company shall give written notice to the Administrative Trustees, the Property Trustee and the
Trustee of its selection of such Extended Interest Payment Period five Business Days before the earlier of (i) the next succeeding date on which Distributions on the Trust Securities issued by Arrow Capital Trust I are payable, or (ii) the date the Trust
is required to give notice of the record date, or the date such Distributions are payable, to any national securities exchange or to holders of the Capital Securities issued by the Trust, but in any event at least five Business Days before such record date.

(b)If the Property Trustee is not the only Holder of the Securities at the time the Company selects an Extended Interest Payment Period, the Company shall give the Holders of the Securities and the Trustee written notice of its selection of such
Extended Interest Payment Period at least 10 Business Days before the earlier of (i) the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, or (ii) the date the Company is required to give notice of the record or payment date of such interest payment to any national
securities exchange.

(c)The quarterly period in which any notice is given pursuant to paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section 16.02 shall be counted as one of the 20 quarterly periods permitted in the maximum Extended Interest Payment Period permitted under Section 16.01.

The Chase Manhattan Bank hereby accepts the trusts in this Indenture declared and provided, upon the terms and conditions hereinabove set forth.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the day and year first above written.

ARROW FINANCIAL CORPORATION

9.50% JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEFERRABLE INTEREST DEBENTURE,

SERIES ___, DUE DECEMBER 31, 2029

Arrow Financial Corporation, a New York corporation (the "Company", which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to The Chase Manhattan Bank, not in its individual
capacity but solely as Property Trustee of Arrow Capital Trust I (the "Trust") or registered assigns, the principal sum of _________________________________ Dollars on December 31, 2029 (the "Maturity Date"), unless previously prepaid, and to pay interest
on the outstanding principal amount hereof from ____________, 1999, or from the most recent interest payment date (each such date, an "Interest Payment Date") to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly (subject to deferral as set
forth herein) in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing December 31, 1999 at the rate of 9.50% per annum until the principal hereof shall have become due and payable, and on any overdue principal and premium,
if any, and (without duplication and to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest at the same rate per annum compounded quarterly. The amount of interest payable on any Interest
Payment Date shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and, for any period less than a full calendar month, the number of days elapsed in such month. In the event that any date on which the principal of (or premium, if any)
or interest on this Security is payable is not a Business Day, then payment payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), with the same force
and effect as if made on such date.

The interest installment so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities, as defined in said
Indenture) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest installment, which shall be the fifteenth day prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date. Any such interest installment not punctually paid or duly provided
for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders on such regular record date and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a special record date to be
fixed by the Trustee for the payment of such defaulted interest, notice whereof shall be given to the Holders of Securities not less than 10 days prior to such special record date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent
with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

The principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security shall be payable, at the main office of the Company in the City of Glens Falls, New York, in any coin or currency of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that, payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by (i) check mailed to the Holder at such address as shall appear in the Security Register or (ii) by transfer to an
account maintained by the Person entitled thereto as specified in the Security Register, provided that proper written transfer instructions have been received by the relevant record date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Holder of this
Security is the Property Trustee holding on behalf of the Trust, the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security will be made at such place and to such account as may be designated by the Property Trustee.

The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of Senior Indebtedness, and this Security is issued subject to the provisions of the
Indenture with respect thereto. Each Holder of this Security, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions, (b) 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 so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each Holder hereof, by his or her acceptance hereof, hereby waives all notice of the acceptance of the
subordination provisions contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions.

This Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the Certificate of Authentication hereon shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee.

The provisions of this Security are continued on the reverse side hereof and such provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY]

This Security is one of the Securities of the Company (herein sometimes referred to as the "Securities"), specified in the Indenture, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of December 13, 1999 (the "Indenture"), duly
executed and delivered between the Company and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as Trustee (the "Trustee"), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the
Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities.

Upon the occurrence and continuation of a Special Event, the Company shall have the right at any time prior to December 31, 2004 (the "Initial Optional Prepayment Date"), within 90 days following the occurrence of such Special Event to prepay this
Security in whole (but not in part) at the Special Event Prepayment Price. "Special Event Prepayment Price" shall mean an amount in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount to be prepaid, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, including
Compounded Interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the date of such prepayment.

In addition, the Company shall have the right to prepay this Security, in whole or in part, at any time on or after the Initial Optional Prepayment Date (an "Optional Prepayment"), at the Optional Prepayment Price.  "Optional Prepayment Price" shall
mean an amount in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount to be prepaid, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including Additional Interest and Compounded Interest, if any) to the applicable date of prepayment.

The Optional Prepayment Price or the Special Event Prepayment Price, as the case requires, 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 that the
Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount sufficient to pay the applicable Prepayment Price by 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the date such Prepayment Price is to be paid. Any prepayment pursuant to this paragraph will be made upon not less than 30
days nor more than 60 days notice. If the Securities are only partially prepaid by the Company pursuant to an Optional Prepayment, the 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 Securities are registered as one or more Global Securities, the Depositary shall determine the particular Securities to be prepaid in accordance with its procedures.

In the event of prepayment of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities for the unprepaid portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayment of Securities by the Company shall be subject to the receipt by the Company of the approval of the Federal Reserve and any other required regulatory approval.

In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all of the Securities may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject
to the conditions provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, as defined in the Indenture, to execute supplemental
indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities; provided, however, that no such supplemental
indenture shall, without the consent of each Holder of Securities then outstanding and affected thereby, (i) change the Maturity Date of any Securities, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce any amount payable on prepayment thereof, or reduce
the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon (subject to Article Sixteen of the Indenture), or make the principal of, or interest or premium on, the Securities payable in any coin or currency other than U.S. dollars, or impair or affect the
right of any Holder of Securities to institute suit for the payment thereof, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities the Holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding affected thereby, on behalf of all of the Holders of the Securities, to waive any past default in the performance of any of the covenants
contained in the Indenture, or established pursuant to the Indenture, and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any of the Securities or a default in respect of any covenant or provision
under which the Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Holder of Securities then outstanding. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and
binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of this Security and of any Security issued in exchange herefor or in place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or otherwise), irrespective of whether or not any notation of such
consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this
Security at the time and place and at the rate and in the money herein prescribed.

The Company shall have the right, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Securities, to defer payments of interest by extending the interest payment period of such Securities for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarterly
periods, including the first such quarterly period during such extension period, and not to extend beyond the Maturity Date of the Securities (an "Extended Interest Payment Period"), at the end of which period the Company shall pay all interest then
accrued and unpaid (together with interest thereon at the rate specified for the Securities to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law). Before the termination of any such Extended Interest Payment Period, the Company
may further defer payments of interest by further extending such Extended Interest Payment Period, provided that such Extended Interest Payment Period, together with all such previous and further extensions within such Extended Interest Payment Period,
(i) shall not exceed 20 consecutive quarterly periods, including the first quarterly period during such Extended Interest Payment Period, (ii) shall not end on any date other than an Interest Payment Date and (iii) shall not extend beyond the Maturity
Date of the Securities. Upon the termination of any such Extended Interest Payment Period and the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and any additional amounts then due, the Company may commence a new Extended Interest Payment Period, subject to
the foregoing requirements.

The Company has agreed that it will not (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 its Common Stock and Preferred
Stock), (ii) make any payment of principal, interest or premium, if any, with respect to or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company that rank pari passu with or junior in right of payment to the Securities 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 any Other Guarantees) if such guarantee ranks pari passu or junior in right of payment to the Securities (other than (a)
dividends or distributions in shares of, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of, Common Stock of the Company; (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 Capital Securities Guarantee; (d) as a result of a reclassification of the Company's capital stock or the
exchange or the conversion of one class or series of the Company's capital stock for another class or series of the Company's capital stock; (e) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company's capital stock pursuant to the exchange or
conversion of such capital stock or the security being exchanged or converted; and (f) 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 or any of
the Company's dividend reinvestment plans) if at such time (i) there shall have occurred any event of which the Company has actual knowledge that (a) is, or with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute, an Event of Default and
(b) in respect of which the Company shall not have taken reasonable steps to cure, (ii) if Securities are held by the Property Trustee on behalf of the Trust, the Company shall be in default with respect to its payment of any obligations under the Capital
Securities Guarantee or (iii) the Company shall have given notice of its election of the exercise of its right to extend the interest payment period pursuant to the preceding paragraph and any such extension shall be continuing.

The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to the transfer restriction limitations as may be contained herein and therein
from time to time, this Security is transferable by the Holder hereof on the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the City of Glens Falls, New York,
accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company or the Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of authorized
denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount and series will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.  No service charge will be made for any such transfer, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in relation thereto.

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Security, the Company, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any paying agent, any transfer agent and the registrar may deem and treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner
hereof (whether or not this Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Security registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof (and
premium, if any) and (subject to the Indenture) interest due hereon and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent nor any paying agent nor any transfer agent nor any registrar shall be affected by any
notice to the contrary.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on this Security, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture, against any incorporator,
stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, as such, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor Person, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise,
all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof, expressly waived and released.

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

THE INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF.

ARROW FINANCIAL CORPORATION

9.50% JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEFERRABLE INTEREST DEBENTURE,

SERIES B, DUE DECEMBER 31, 2029

Arrow Financial Corporation, a New York corporation (the "Company", which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to The Chase Manhattan Bank, not in its individual
capacity but solely as Property Trustee of Arrow Capital Trust I (the "Trust") or registered assigns, the principal sum of _________________________________ Dollars on December 31, 2029 (the "Maturity Date"), unless previously prepaid, and to pay interest
on the outstanding principal amount hereof from ____________, 1999, or from the most recent interest payment date (each such date, an "Interest Payment Date") to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly (subject to deferral as set
forth herein) in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing December 31, 1999 at the rate of 9.50% per annum until the principal hereof shall have become due and payable, and on any overdue principal and premium,
if any, and (without duplication and to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest at the same rate per annum compounded quarterly. The amount of interest payable on any Interest
Payment Date shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and, for any period less than a full calendar month, the number of days elapsed in such month. In the event that any date on which the principal of (or premium, if any)
or interest on this Security is payable is not a Business Day, then payment payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), with the same force
and effect as if made on such date.

The interest installment so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities, as defined in said
Indenture) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest installment, which shall be the fifteenth day prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date. Any such interest installment not punctually paid or duly provided
for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders on such regular record date and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a special record date to be
fixed by the Trustee for the payment of such defaulted interest, notice whereof shall be given to the Holders of Securities not less than 10 days prior to such special record date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent
with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

The principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security shall be payable, at the main office of the Company in the City of Glens Falls, New York, in any coin or currency of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that, payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by (i) check mailed to the Holder at such address as shall appear in the Security Register or (ii) by transfer to an
account maintained by the Person entitled thereto as specified in the Security Register, provided that proper written transfer instructions have been received by the relevant record date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Holder of this
Security is the Property Trustee holding on behalf of the Trust, the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security will be made at such place and to such account as may be designated by the Property Trustee.

The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of Senior Indebtedness, and this Security is issued subject to the provisions of the
Indenture with respect thereto. Each Holder of this Security, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions, (b) 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 so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each Holder hereof, by his or her acceptance hereof, hereby waives all notice of the acceptance of the
subordination provisions contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions.

This Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the Certificate of Authentication hereon shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee.

The provisions of this Security are continued on the reverse side hereof and such provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to be executed.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY]

This Security is one of the Securities of the Company (herein sometimes referred to as the "Securities"), specified in the Indenture, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of December 13, 1999 (the "Indenture"), duly
executed and delivered between the Company and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as Trustee (the "Trustee"), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the
Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities.

Upon the occurrence and continuation of a Special Event, the Company shall have the right at any time prior to December 31, 2004 (the "Initial Optional Prepayment Date"), within 90 days following the occurrence of such Special Event to prepay this
Security in whole (but not in part) at the Special Event Prepayment Price. "Special Event Prepayment Price" shall mean an amount in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount to be prepaid, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, including
Compounded Interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the date of such prepayment.

In addition, the Company shall have the right to prepay this Security, in whole or in part, at any time on or after the Initial Optional Prepayment Date (an "Optional Prepayment"), at the Optional Prepayment Price.  "Optional Prepayment Price" shall
mean an amount in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount to be prepaid, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including Additional Interest and Compounded Interest, if any) to the applicable date of prepayment.

The Optional Prepayment Price or the Special Event Prepayment Price, as the case requires, 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 that the
Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount sufficient to pay the applicable Prepayment Price by 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the date such Prepayment Price is to be paid. Any prepayment pursuant to this paragraph will be made upon not less than 30
days nor more than 60 days notice. If the Securities are only partially prepaid by the Company pursuant to an Optional Prepayment, the 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 Securities are registered as one or more Global Securities, the Depositary shall determine the particular Securities to be prepaid in accordance with its procedures.

In the event of prepayment of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities for the unprepaid portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayment of Securities by the Company shall be subject to the receipt by the Company of the approval of the Federal Reserve and any other required regulatory approval.

In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all of the Securities may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject
to the conditions provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, as defined in the Indenture, to execute supplemental
indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities; provided, however, that no such supplemental
indenture shall, without the consent of each Holder of Securities then outstanding and affected thereby, (i) change the Maturity Date of any Securities, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce any amount payable on prepayment thereof, or reduce
the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon (subject to Article Sixteen of the Indenture), or make the principal of, or interest or premium on, the Securities payable in any coin or currency other than U.S. dollars, or impair or affect the
right of any Holder of Securities to institute suit for the payment thereof, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities the Holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding affected thereby, on behalf of all of the Holders of the Securities, to waive any past default in the performance of any of the covenants
contained in the Indenture, or established pursuant to the Indenture, and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any of the Securities or a default in respect of any covenant or provision
under which the Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Holder of Securities then outstanding. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and
binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of this Security and of any Security issued in exchange herefor or in place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or otherwise), irrespective of whether or not any notation of such
consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this
Security at the time and place and at the rate and in the money herein prescribed.

The Company shall have the right, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Securities, to defer payments of interest by extending the interest payment period of such Securities for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarterly
periods, including the first such quarterly period during such extension period, and not to extend beyond the Maturity Date of the Securities (an "Extended Interest Payment Period"), at the end of which period the Company shall pay all interest then
accrued and unpaid (together with interest thereon at the rate specified for the Securities to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law). Before the termination of any such Extended Interest Payment Period, the Company
may further defer payments of interest by further extending such Extended Interest Payment Period, provided that such Extended Interest Payment Period, together with all such previous and further extensions within such Extended Interest Payment Period,
(i) shall not exceed 20 consecutive quarterly periods, including the first quarterly period during such Extended Interest Payment Period, (ii) shall not end on any date other than an Interest Payment Date and (iii) shall not extend beyond the Maturity
Date of the Securities. Upon the termination of any such Extended Interest Payment Period and the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and any additional amounts then due, the Company may commence a new Extended Interest Payment Period, subject to
the foregoing requirements.

The Company has agreed that it will not (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 its Common Stock and Preferred
Stock), (ii) make any payment of principal, interest or premium, if any, with respect to or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company that rank pari passu with or junior in right of payment to the Securities 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 any Other Guarantees) if such guarantee ranks pari passu or junior in right of payment to the Securities (other than (a)
dividends or distributions in shares of, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of, Common Stock of the Company; (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 Capital Securities Guarantee; (d) as a result of a reclassification of the Company's capital stock or the
exchange or the conversion of one class or series of the Company's capital stock for another class or series of the Company's capital stock; (e) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company's capital stock pursuant to the exchange or
conversion of such capital stock or the security being exchanged or converted; and (f) 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 or any of
the Company's dividend reinvestment plans) if at such time (i) there shall have occurred any event of which the Company has actual knowledge that (a) is, or with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute, an Event of Default and
(b) in respect of which the Company shall not have taken reasonable steps to cure, (ii) if Securities are held by the Property Trustee on behalf of the Trust, the Company shall be in default with respect to its payment of any obligations under the Capital
Securities Guarantee or (iii) the Company shall have given notice of its election of the exercise of its right to extend the interest payment period pursuant to the preceding paragraph and any such extension shall be continuing.

The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to the transfer restriction limitations as may be contained herein and therein
from time to time, this Security is transferable by the Holder hereof on the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the City of Glens Falls, New York,
accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company or the Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of authorized
denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount and series will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.  No service charge will be made for any such transfer, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in relation thereto.

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Security, the Company, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any paying agent, any transfer agent and the registrar may deem and treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner
hereof (whether or not this Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Security registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof (and
premium, if any) and (subject to the Indenture) interest due hereon and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent nor any paying agent nor any transfer agent nor any registrar shall be affected by any
notice to the contrary.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on this Security, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture, against any incorporator,
stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, as such, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor Person, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise,
all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof, expressly waived and released.

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

THE INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF.
