     All other TIA terms used in this Indenture that are defined by the TIA,
defined by TIA reference to another statute or defined by SEC rule have the
meanings assigned to them by such definitions.

     Section 1.04. Rules of Construction. Unless the context otherwise requires:

     (a)  a term has the meaning assigned to it;

     (b)  an accounting term not otherwise defined has the meaning assigned to
it in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as in effect from
time to time;

     (c)  "or" is not exclusive;

     (d)  "including" means including, without limitation; and

     (e)  words in the singular include the plural, and words in the plural
include the singular.

     Section 1.05. Acts of Holders. (a) Any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to
be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more
instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or
by their agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or
instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly
required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action
embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the
"Act" of Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of
any such

                                       12

<PAGE>

instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any
purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the
Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section.

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

     (c)  The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the register for the
Securities or by a certificate of the Registrar.

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

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

                                 The Securities

     Section 2.01. Form and Dating. The Securities and the Trustee's certificate
of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1, which is a
part of this Indenture. The Securities may have notations, legends or
endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage (provided that any
such notation, legend or endorsement required by usage is in a form acceptable
to the Company). The Company shall provide any such notations, legends or
endorsements to the Trustee in writing. Each Security shall be dated the date of
its authentication.

     (a)  144A Global Securities. The Securities will be offered and sold within
the United States to qualified institutional investors as defined in Rule 144A
("QIBs") in reliance on Rule 144A and shall be issued, initially in the form of
a 144A Global Security, which shall be deposited with the Trustee at its
Corporate Trust Office, as custodian for the Depositary and registered in the
name of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") or the nominee thereof (such
depositary, or any successor thereto, and any such nominee being hereinafter
referred to as the "Depositary"), duly executed by the Company and authenticated
by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The aggregate Principal Amount at
Maturity of the 144A Global Securities may from time to time be increased or
decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary
as hereinafter provided.

          Each Global Security shall represent such of the outstanding
Securities as shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it shall
represent the aggregate amount of outstanding Securities from time to time
endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of outstanding Securities
represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as
appropriate, to reflect exchanges, redemptions and conversions.

          Any adjustment of the aggregate Principal Amount at Maturity 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 Holder thereof as required by Section
2.12 hereof and shall be made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary.
----

     (b)  Book-Entry Provisions.

          The Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with
this Section 2.01(b), authenticate and deliver initially one or more Global
             -------
Securities that (a) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary, (b) shall
be delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary or pursuant to the Depositary's
instructions and (c) shall bear legends substantially to the following effect:

     "UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF
     THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY TO THE ISSUER OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF
     TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN
     THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN
     AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (AND ANY PAYMENT
     HEREON IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN
     AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY), ANY TRANSFER,
     PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS
     WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST
     HEREIN.

     TRANSFERS OF THIS GLOBAL SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS IN WHOLE,
     BUT NOT IN PART, TO NOMINEES OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY OR TO A
     SUCCESSOR THEREOF OR SUCH SUCCESSOR'S NOMINEE AND TRANSFERS OF PORTIONS OF
     THIS GLOBAL SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH
     THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE TWO OF THE INDENTURE REFERRED TO ON
     THE REVERSE HEREOF."

     Section 2.02. Execution and Authentication. The Securities shall be
executed on behalf of the Company by any Officer, under its corporate seal
reproduced thereon. The signature of the Officer on the Securities may be manual
or facsimile.

     Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who
were at the time of the execution of the Securities the proper Officers of the
Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of
them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery
of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication of
such Securities.

     No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a
certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein duly
executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an authorized officer, and such
certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder.

                                       15

<PAGE>

     The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Securities for original issue in
an aggregate Principal Amount at Maturity of up to $390,000,000 upon a Company
Order without any further action by the Company. The aggregate Principal Amount
at Maturity of Securities outstanding at any time may not exceed the amount set
forth in the foregoing sentence, except as provided in Section 2.07.
                                                               ----

     The Securities shall be issued only in registered form without coupons and
only in denominations of $1,000 of Principal Amount at Maturity and any integral
multiple thereof.

     Section 2.03. Registrar, Paying Agent and Conversion Agent. The Company
shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for
registration of transfer or for exchange ("Registrar"), an office or agency
where Securities may be presented for purchase or payment ("Paying Agent") and
an office or agency where Securities may be presented for conversion
("Conversion Agent"). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and
of their transfer and exchange. The Company may have one or more co-registrars,
one or more additional paying agents and one or more additional conversion
agents. The term Paying Agent includes any additional paying agent, including
any named pursuant to Section 4.05. The term Conversion Agent includes any
                              ----
additional conversion agent, including any named pursuant to Section 4.05.
                                                                     ----

     The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any
Registrar, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or co-registrar (other than the
Trustee). The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that
relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and
address of any such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar, Paying
Agent or Conversion Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled
to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.06. The Company or
                                                         ----
any Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them may act as Paying Agent,
Registrar, Conversion Agent or co-registrar.

     The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar, Conversion Agent
and Paying Agent in connection with the Securities.

     Section 2.04. Paying Agent to Hold Money and Securities in Trust. Except as
otherwise provided herein, on or prior to each due date of payments in respect
of any Security, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum of money
(in immediately available funds if deposited on the due date) or Class A Common
Stock sufficient to make such payments when so becoming due. The Company shall
require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the
Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Securityholders or the
Trustee all money and Class A Common Stock held by the Paying Agent for the
making of payments in respect of the Securities and shall notify the

                                       16

<PAGE>

Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. At any time
during the continuance of any such default, the Paying Agent shall, upon the
written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all money and Class
A Common Stock so held in trust. If the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of
either of them acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money and Class A
Common Stock held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund.
The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money and Class A
Common-Stock held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds and Class A
Common Stock disbursed by it. Upon doing so, the Paying Agent shall have no
further liability for the money or Class A Common Stock.

     Section 2.05. Securityholder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as
current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it
of the names and addresses of Securityholders. If the Trustee is not the
Registrar, the Company shall cause to be furnished to the Trustee at least
semiannually on May 1 and November 1 a listing of Securityholders dated within
15 days of the date on which the list is furnished and at such other times as
the Trustee may request in writing a list in such form and as of such date as
the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of
Securityholders.

     Section 2.06. Transfer and Exchange. Subject to Section 2.12 hereof, (a)
                                                             ----
upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security, together with a
written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by
the Securityholder or such Securityholder's attorney duly authorized in writing,
at the office or agency of the Company designated as Registrar or co-registrar
pursuant to Section 2.03, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
                    ----
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, one or more new Securities of any authorized denomination or
denominations, of alike aggregate Principal Amount at Maturity. The Company
shall not charge a service charge for any registration of transfer or exchange,
but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes,
assessments or other governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with
the transfer or exchange of the Securities from the Securityholder requesting
such transfer or exchange.

     At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for other
Securities of any authorized denomination or denominations, of a like aggregate
Principal Amount at Maturity, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged,
together with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Registrar
duly executed by the Securityholder or such Securityholder's attorney duly
authorized in writing, at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so
surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is
entitled to receive.

     The Company shall not be required to make, and the Registrar need not
register, transfers or exchanges of Securities selected for redemption (except,
in the case of Securities to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be

                                       17

<PAGE>

redeemed) or any Securities in respect of which a Purchase Notice or Fundamental
Change Purchase Notice has been given and not withdrawn by the Holder thereof in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture (except, in the case of Securities
to be purchased in part, the portion thereof not to be purchased) or any
Securities for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption
of Securities to be redeemed.

     (b)   Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, so long as a
Global Security remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the
Depositary, transfers of a Global Security, in whole or in part, shall be made
only in accordance with Section 2.12 and this Section 2.06(b). Transfers of a
                                ----                  -------
Global Security shall be limited to transfers of such Global Security in whole,
or in part, to nominees of the Depositary or to a successor of the Depositary or
such successor's nominee.

     (c)   Successive registrations and registrations of transfers and exchanges
as aforesaid may be made from time to time as desired, and each such
registration shall be noted on the register for the Securities.

     (d)   Any Registrar appointed pursuant to Section 2.03 hereof shall provide
                                                       ----
to the Trustee such information as the Trustee may reasonably require in
connection with the delivery by such Registrar of Securities upon transfer or
exchange of Securities.

     (e)   No Registrar shall be required to make registrations of transfer or
exchange of Securities during any periods designated in the text of the
Securities or in this Indenture as periods during which such registration of
transfers and exchanges need not be made.

     (f)   If Securities are issued upon the transfer, exchange or replacement
of Securities subject to restrictions on transfer and bearing the legends set
forth on the form of Security attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 and setting forth
such restrictions (collectively, the "Legend"), or if a request is made to
remove the Legend on a Security, the Securities so issued shall bear the Legend,
or the Legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there is
delivered to the Company and the Registrar such satisfactory evidence, which
shall include an opinion of counsel, as may be reasonably required by the
Company and the Registrar, that neither the Legend nor the restrictions on
transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers thereof comply
with the provisions of Rule 144A or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or that
such Securities are not "restricted" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the
Securities Act. Upon (i) provision of such satisfactory evidence, or (ii)
notification by the Company to the Trustee and Registrar of the sale of such
Security pursuant to a registration statement that is effective at the time of
such sale, the Trustee, at the written direction of the Company, shall
authenticate and deliver a Security that does not bear the Legend. If the Legend
is removed from the face of a Security and the

                                       18

<PAGE>

Security is subsequently held by an Affiliate of the Company, the Legend shall
be reinstated.

     Section 2.07. Replacement Securities. If (a) any mutilated Security is
surrendered to the Trustee, or (b) the Company and the Trustee receive evidence
to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and
there is delivered to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as
may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of
notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a
bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its written request the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated
Security or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new
Security of like tenor and Principal Amount at Maturity, bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding.

     In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become
or is about to become due and payable, or is about to be purchased by the
Company pursuant to Article 3 hereof, the Company in its discretion may, instead
                            -
of issuing a new Security, pay or purchase such Security, as the case may be.

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

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

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

     Section 2.08. Outstanding Securities; Determinations of Holders' Action.
Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the
Trustee except for those cancelled by it or delivered to it for cancellation,
those paid pursuant to Section 2.07 and those described in this Section 2.08 as
                               ----                                     ----
not outstanding. A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company
or an Affiliate thereof holds the Security; provided, however, that in
determining whether the Holders of the requisite Principal Amount at Maturity of
Securities have given or concurred in any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, Securities owned by the Company
or any other obligor upon the Securities or any Affiliate of the Company or such
other obligor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except
that, in determining

                                       19

<PAGE>

whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Securities which a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded.
Subject to the foregoing, only Securities outstanding at the time of such
determination shall be considered in any such determination (including, without
limitation, determinations pursuant to Articles 6 and 9).
                                                -     -

     If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be
                                                   ----
outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the
replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser.

     If the Paying Agent holds, in accordance with this Indenture, on a
Redemption Date, or on the Business Day following the Purchase Date or a
Fundamental Change Purchase Date, or on Stated Maturity, money or securities, if
permitted hereunder, sufficient to pay Securities payable on that date, then
immediately after such Redemption Date, Purchase Date, Fundamental Change
Purchase Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be, such Securities shall
cease to be outstanding and Original Issue Discount and interest on such
Securities shall cease to accrue; provided that, if such Securities are to be
redeemed, notice of such redemption has been duly given pursuant to this
Indenture or provision therefor satisfactory to the Trustee has been made.

     If a Security is converted in accordance with Article 11, then from and
                                                           --
after the time of conversion on the Conversion Date, such Security shall cease
to be outstanding and Original Issue Discount and interest shall cease to accrue
on such Security.

     Section 2.09. Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of definitive
Securities, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed,
typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination,
substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they
are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and
other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as
conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

     If temporary Securities are issued, the Company will cause definitive
Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of
definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for
definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at the office
or agency of the Company designated for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.03,
                                                                         ----
without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more
temporary Securities the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like Principal Amount at
Maturity 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.

                                            -
registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any person other
than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by
it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any
Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company
may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered
shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. The Company may not issue new
Securities to replace Securities it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation or that any Holder has converted pursuant to Article 11. No
                                                                  --
Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities
cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this
Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be destroyed by
the Trustee and the Trustee shall deliver a certificate of destruction to the
Company.

     Section 2.11. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Security
for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the
Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is
registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of
principal of the Security or the payment of any Redemption Price, Purchase Price
or Fundamental Change Purchase Price in respect thereof, and interest thereon,
for the purpose of conversion and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or
not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent
of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

     Section 2.12. Global Securities. (a Notwithstanding any other provisions of
this Indenture or the Securities, (A) transfers of a Global Security, in whole
or in part, shall be made only in accordance with Section 2.06 and Section
                                                          ----
2.12(a)(i) below.
----------

          (i)   Transfer of Global Security. A Global Security may not be
     transferred, in whole or in part, to any Person other than the Depositary
     or a nominee or any successor thereof, and no such transfer to any such
     other Person may be registered; provided that this clause (i) shall not
     prohibit any transfer of a Security that is issued in exchange for a Global
     Security but is not itself a Global Security. No transfer of a Security to
     any Person shall be effective under this Indenture or the Securities unless
     and until such Security has been registered in the name of such Person.
     Nothing in this Section 2.12(a)(i) shall prohibit or render ineffective any
                             ----------
     transfer of a beneficial interest in a Global Security effected in
     accordance with the other provisions of this Section 2.12(a).
                                                          -------

     (b)  Subject to the succeeding paragraph, every Security shall be subject
to the restrictions on transfer provided in the Legend including the delivery of
an opinion of counsel, if so provided. Whenever any Restricted Security is
presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange for

                                       21

<PAGE>

a Security registered in a name other than that of the Holder, such Security
must be accompanied by a certificate in substantially the form set forth in
Exhibit B-1, dated the date of such surrender and signed by the Holder of such
Security, as to compliance with such restrictions on transfer. The Registrar
shall not be required to accept for such registration of transfer or exchange
any Security not so accompanied by a properly completed certificate.

     (c)  The restrictions imposed by the Legend upon the transferability of any
Security shall cease and terminate when such Security has been sold pursuant to
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or transferred in
compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any successor provision
thereto) or, if earlier, upon the expiration of the holding period applicable to
sales thereof under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act (or any successor
provision). Any Security as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have
expired in accordance with their terms or shall have terminated may, upon a
surrender of such Security for exchange to the Registrar in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 2.12 (accompanied, in the event that such
                           ----
restrictions on transfer have terminated by reason of a transfer in compliance
with Rule 144 or any successor provision, by an opinion of counsel having
substantial experience in practice under the Securities Act and otherwise
reasonably acceptable to the Company, addressed to the Company and in form
acceptable to the Company, to the effect that the transfer of such Security has
been made in compliance with Rule 144 or such successor provision), be exchanged
for a new Security, of like tenor and aggregate Principal Amount at Maturity,
which shall not bear the restrictive Legend. The Company shall inform the
Trustee of the effective date of any registration statement registering the
Securities under the Securities Act. The Trustee shall not be liable for any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
aforementioned opinion of counsel or registration statement.

     (d)  As used in the preceding two paragraphs of this Section 2.12, the term
                                                                  ----
"transfer" encompasses any sale, pledge, transfer, hypothecation or other
disposition of any Security.

     (e)  The provisions below shall apply to the Global Securities:

             (i)   Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture or the
     Securities, a Global Security shall not be exchanged in whole or in part
     for a Security registered in the name of any Person other than the
     Depositary or one or more nominees thereof, provided that a Global Security
     may be exchanged for Securities registered in the names of any person
     designated by the Depositary in the event that (A) the Depositary has
     notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as
     Depositary for such Global Security or such 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 or (B) an Event
     of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Securities.
     Any Global

                                       22

<PAGE>

     Security exchanged pursuant to clause (A) above shall be so exchanged in
     whole and not in part, and any Global Security exchanged pursuant to clause
     (B) above may be exchanged in whole or from time to time in part as
     directed by the Depositary. Any Security issued in exchange for a Global
     Security or any portion thereof shall be a Global Security; provided that
     any such Security so issued that is registered in the name of a Person
     other than the Depositary or a nominee thereof shall not be a Global
     Security.

             (ii)  Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security or any
     portion thereof shall be issued in definitive, fully registered form,
     without interest coupons, shall have an aggregate Principal Amount at
     Maturity equal to that of such Global Security or portion thereof to be so
     exchanged, shall be registered in such names and be in such authorized
     denominations as the Depositary shall designate and shall bear the
     applicable legends provided for herein. Any Global Security to be exchanged
     in whole shall be surrendered by the Depositary to the Trustee, as
     Registrar. With regard to any Global Security to be exchanged in part,
     either such Global Security shall be so surrendered for exchange or, if the
     Trustee is acting as custodian for the Depositary or its nominee with
     respect to such Global Security, the Principal Amount at Maturity thereof
     shall be reduced, by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so
     exchanged, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the
     Trustee. Upon any such surrender or adjustment, the Trustee shall
     authenticate and deliver the Security issuable on such exchange to or upon
     the order of the Depositary or an authorized representative thereof.

             (iii) Subject to the provisions of clause 2.12(e)(v) below, the
                                                       ----------
     registered Holder may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person,
     including Agent Members (as defined below) and persons that may hold
     interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a holder is
     entitled to take under this Indenture or the Securities.

             (iv)  In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified
     in clause (i) above, the Company will promptly make available to the
     Trustee a reasonable supply of certificated securities in definitive, fully
     registered form, without interest coupons.

             (v)   Neither any members of, or participants in, the Depositary
     (collectively, the "Agent Members") nor any other Persons on whose behalf
     Agent Members may act shall have any rights under this Indenture with
     respect to any Global Security registered in the name of the Depositary or
     any nominee thereof, or under any such Global Security, and the Depositary
     or such nominee, as the case may be, may be treated by the Company, the
     Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner
     and holder of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent

                                       23

<PAGE>

     the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from
     giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization
     furnished by the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, or impair,
     as between the Depositary, its Agent Members and any other person on whose
     behalf an Agent Member may act, the operation of customary practices of
     such Persons governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any
     Security.

     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 redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided
that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the
correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained
in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other
identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall
not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will
promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

     Section 2.14. No Regular Cash Interest on Securities. The Securities shall
not bear periodic interest, except (i) for contingent interest payable in six
month periods commencing on January 28, 2007 subject to the conditions contained
in paragraph 11 of the Securities, and (ii) in the event the Securities are
converted to Cash Pay Securities pursuant to Article 10 hereof.

                                    Article 3
                            Redemption and Purchases

     Section 3.01. Right to Redeem; Notices to Trustee. The Company, at its
option, may redeem the Securities in accordance with the provisions of
paragraphs 5 and 7 of the Securities. If the Company elects to redeem Securities
pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Securities, it shall notify the Trustee in
writing of the Redemption Date, the Principal Amount at Maturity of Securities
to be redeemed and the Redemption Price.

     The Company shall give the notice to the Trustee provided for in this
Section 3.01 by a Company Order, at least 60 days before the Redemption Date
        ----
(unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee).

     Section 3.02. Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed. If less than all the
Securities are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be
redeemed pro rata or by lot or by any other method the Trustee considers fair
and appropriate (so long as such method is not prohibited by the rules of any
stock exchange on which the Securities are then listed). The Trustee shall make
the selection at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption
Date

                                       24

<PAGE>

from outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption. The Trustee
may select for redemption portions of the Principal Amount at Maturity of
Securities that have denominations larger than $1,000.

     Securities and portions of them the Trustee selects shall be in Principal
Amounts at Maturity of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. Provisions of
this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to
portions of Securities called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify the
Company promptly of the Securities or portions of Securities to be redeemed.

     If any Security selected for partial redemption is converted in part before
termination of the conversion right with respect to the portion of the Security
so selected, the converted portion of such Security shall be deemed (so far as
may be) to be the portion selected for redemption. Securities which have been
converted during a selection of Securities to be redeemed may be treated by the
Trustee as outstanding for the purpose of such selection.

     Section 3.03. Notice of Redemption. At least 30 days but not more than 60
days before a Redemption Date, the Company shall mail a notice of redemption by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed.

     The notice shall identify the Securities to be redeemed and shall state:

     (a)   the Redemption Date;

     (b)   the Redemption Price;

     (c)   the Conversion Rate;

     (d)   the name and address of the Paying Agent and Conversion Agent;

     (e)   that Securities called for redemption may be converted at any time
before the close of business on the Redemption Date;

     (f)   that Holders who want to convert Securities must satisfy the
requirements set forth in paragraph 8 of the Securities;

     (g)   that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the
Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price;

     (h)   if fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the
certificate number and Principal Amounts at Maturity of the particular
Securities to be redeemed;

                                       25

<PAGE>

          (i)  that, unless the Company defaults in making payment of such
Redemption Price, Original Issue Discount and any interest on Securities called
for redemption will cease to accrue on and after the Redemption Date; and

          (j)  the CUSIP number of the Securities.

         At the Company's request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Company's name and at the Company's expense, provided that the
Company makes such request at least three Business Days prior to such notice of
redemption.

         Section 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption
is given, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the
Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price stated in the notice, except for
Securities which are converted in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.
Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the
Redemption Price stated in the notice.

         Section 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 10:00 a.m. (New
York City time) on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the
Paying Agent (or if the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of
them is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to
pay the Redemption Price of all Securities to be redeemed on that date other
than Securities or portions of Securities called for redemption which on or
prior thereto have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation
or have been converted. The Paying Agent shall as promptly as practicable return
to the Company any money, with interest, if any, thereon, not required for that
purpose because of conversion of Securities pursuant to Article 11. If such
                                                                --
money is then held by the Company in trust and is not required for such purpose,
it shall be discharged from such trust.

         Section 3.06. Securities Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Security
that is redeemed in part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Security in an authorized
denomination equal in Principal Amount at Maturity to the unredeemed portion of
the Security surrendered.

         Section 3.07. Conversion Arrangement on Call for Redemption. In
connection with any redemption of Securities, the Company may arrange for the
purchase and conversion of any Securities called for redemption by an agreement
with one or more investment banks or other purchasers to purchase such
Securities by paying to the Trustee in trust for the Securityholders, on or
prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date, an amount that,
together with any amounts deposited with the Trustee by the Company for the
redemption of such Securities, is not less than the Redemption Price of such
Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article
3, the obligation of the Company to pay the Redemption Price of such Securities
-

                                       26

<PAGE>

shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged to the extent such amount is so
paid by such purchasers. If such an agreement is entered into, any Securities
not duly surrendered for conversion by the Holders thereof may, at the option of
the Company, be deemed, to the fullest extent permitted by law, acquired by such
purchasers from such Holders and (notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in Article 11) surrendered by such purchasers for conversion, all as
                     --
of immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date, subject to
payment of the above amount as aforesaid. The Trustee shall hold and pay to the
Holders whose Securities are selected for redemption any such amount paid to it
for purchase and conversion in the same manner as it would moneys deposited with
it by the Company for the redemption of Securities. Without the Trustee's prior
written consent, no arrangement between the Company and such purchasers for the
purchase and conversion of any Securities shall increase or otherwise affect any
of the powers, duties, responsibilities or obligations of the Trustee as set
forth in this Indenture, and the Company agrees to indemnify the Trustee from,
and hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense (other than arising
from gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Trustee) arising
out of or in connection with any such arrangement for the purchase and
conversion of any Securities between the Company and such purchasers, including
the costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee in the defense of any claim or
liability arising out of or in connection with the exercise or performance of
any of its powers, duties, responsibilities or obligations under this Indenture.

         Section 3.08. Purchase of Securities at Option of the Holder upon
Fundamental Change. (a If prior to January 28, 2007 there shall have occurred a
Fundamental Change, all or a portion of the Securities of any Holder shall be
purchased by the Company, at the option of such Holder, at a purchase price
specified in paragraph 6 of the Securities (the "Fundamental Change Purchase
Price"), as of the date specified by the Company in its notice pursuant to
Section 3.08(b), but in any event not later than 35 Business Days after the
occurrence of the Fundamental Change (the "Fundamental Change Purchase Date"),
subject to satisfaction by or on behalf of the Holder of the requirements set
forth in Section 3.08(c). If on or after January 28, 2007 there occurs a
                 -------
Fundamental Change, no Holder shall have any right or option to require the
Company to purchase the Securities of such Holder on account thereof except as
permitted by Section 3.09.

          (b)  Within 20 days after the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the
Company shall mail a written notice of Fundamental Change by first-class mail to
the Trustee and to each Holder (and to beneficial owners as required by
applicable law). In addition, the Company shall cause a copy of such notice of
Fundamental Change to be published in The Wall Street Journal or another daily
newspaper of national circulation. The notice shall include a form of
Fundamental Change Purchase Notice to be completed by the Securityholder and
shall state:

                                       27

<PAGE>

                  (i)    briefly, the events causing a Fundamental Change and
         the date of such Fundamental Change;

                 (ii)    the date by which the Fundamental Change Purchase
         Notice pursuant to this Section 3.08 must be given;
                                         ----

                (iii)    the Fundamental Change Purchase Date;

                 (iv)    that the Fundamental Change Purchase Price for any
         Security as to which a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice has been duly
         given and not withdrawn will be paid promptly following the later of
         the Fundamental Change Purchase Date and the time of surrender of such
         Security;

                  (v)    the information required to be included in a Company
         Notice as specified in Section 3.10(d).

         (c) A Holder may exercise its rights specified in Section 3.08(a)
                                                                   -------
hereof upon delivery of the Securities to be purchased, duly endorsed for
transfer, and a duly completed Fundamental Change Purchase Notice to the Paying
Agent at any time prior to the close of business on the Fundamental Change
Purchase Date, stating:

                  (i)    the certificate number of the Security which the Holder
         will deliver to be purchased;

                 (ii)    the portion of the Principal Amount at Maturity of the
         Security which the Holder will deliver to be purchased, which portion
         must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof; and

                (iii)    that such Security shall be purchased pursuant to the
         terms and conditions specified in paragraph 6 of the Securities and
         Section 3.08 of the Indenture.
                 ----

                 (iv)    in the event the Company elects, pursuant to Section
         3.10(a), to pay the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, in whole or in
         -------
         part, in shares of Class A Common Stock but such portion of the
         Fundamental Change Purchase Price shall ultimately be payable to such
         Holder entirely in cash because any of the conditions to payment of the
         Fundamental Change Purchase Price in Class A Common Stock is not
         satisfied prior to the close of business on the relevant Fundamental
         Change Purchase Date, as set forth in Section 3.10(c), whether such
                                                       -------
         Holder elects (i) to withdraw such Fundamental Change Purchase Notice
         as to some or all of the Securities to which such Fundamental Change
         Purchase Notice relates (stating the Principal Amount at Maturity and
         certificate numbers of the Securities as to which such withdrawal shall
         relate), or (ii) to receive cash in respect of the entire Fundamental
         Change Purchase Price for all

                                       28

<PAGE>

     Securities (or portions thereof) to which such Fundamental Change Purchase
     Notice relates.

     If a Holder, in such Holder's Fundamental Change Purchase Notice and in any
written notice of withdrawal delivered by such Holder pursuant to the terms of
Section 3.11, fails to indicate such Holder's choice with respect to the
        ----
election set forth in clause (iv) immediately above, such Holder shall be deemed
to have elected to receive cash in respect of the Fundamental Change Purchase
Price for all Securities subject to such Fundamental Change Purchase Notice in
the circumstances set forth in such clause (iv).

     The delivery of such Security to the Paying Agent prior to, on or after the
Fundamental Change Purchase Date (together with all necessary endorsements) at
the offices of the Paying Agent shall be a condition to the receipt by the
Holder of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price therefor; provided, however,
that such Fundamental Change Purchase Price shall be so paid pursuant to this
Section 3.08 only if the Security so delivered to the Paying Agent shall conform
        ----
in all respects to the description thereof set forth in the related Fundamental
Change Purchase Notice.

     The Company shall purchase from the Holder thereof, pursuant to this
Section 3.08, a portion of a Security if the Principal Amount at Maturity of
        ----
such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. Provisions of this
Indenture that apply to the purchase of all of a Security also apply to the
purchase of such portion of such Security.

     Any purchase by the Company contemplated pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 3.08 shall be consummated by the delivery of the consideration to be
        ----
received by the Holder promptly following the later of the Fundamental Change

Manner of Payment of Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price. The
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities to be purchased pursuant to Section 3.08(a) or Section 3.09(a) may be
                                                                  -------
paid for, at the election of the Company, in U.S. legal tender ("cash") or Class
A Common Stock, or in any combination of cash and Class A Common Stock, subject
to the conditions set forth in Sections 3.10(b), (c) and (d). The Company shall
                                        -------
designate, in the Company Notice delivered pursuant to Section 3.10(d), whether

the Company will purchase the Securities for cash or Class A Common Stock, or,
if a combination thereof, the percentages of the Purchase Price or Fundamental
Change Purchase Price of Securities in respect of which it will pay in cash or
Class A Common Stock; provided that the Company will pay cash for fractional
interests in Class A Common Stock. For purposes of determining the existence of
potential fractional interests, all Securities subject to purchase by the
Company held by a Holder shall be considered together (no matter how many
separate certificates are to be presented). Each Holder whose

                                       31

<PAGE>

Securities are purchased pursuant to Section 3.08(a) or Section 3.09(a) shall
receive the same percentage of cash or Class A Common Stock in payment of the
Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price for such Securities, except
(i) as provided in Section 3.10(c) with regard to the payment of cash in lieu of
                           -------
fractional shares of Class A Common Stock and (ii) in the event that the Company
is unable to purchase the Securities of a Holder or Holders for Class A Common
Stock because any necessary qualifications or registrations of the Class A
Common Stock under applicable state securities laws cannot be obtained, the
Company may purchase the Securities of such Holder or Holders for cash. The
Company may not change its election with respect to the consideration (or
components or percentages of components thereof) to be paid once the Company has
given its Company Notice to Securityholders except pursuant to this Section
3.10(a) or pursuant to Section 3.10(c) in the event of a failure to satisfy,
-------                        -------
prior to the close of business on the Purchase Date or or Fundamental Change
Purchase Date, any condition to the payment of the Purchase Price or Fundamental
Change Purchase Price, in whole or in part, in Class A Common Stock.

     At least three Business Days before the Company Notice Date, the Company
shall deliver an Officers' Certificate to the Trustee specifying:

          (i)   the manner of payment selected by the Company,

          (ii)  the information required by Section 3.10(d),
                                                    -------

          (iii) if the Company elects to pay the Purchase Price or Fundamental
     Change Purchase Price, or a specified percentage thereof, in Class A Common
     Stock, that the conditions to such manner of payment set forth in Section
     3.10(c) have been or will be complied with, and
     -------

          (iv)  whether the Company desires the Trustee to give the Company
     Notice required by Section 3.10(d).
                                -------

     The above notwithstanding, the Purchase Price for any Securities to be
purchased on January 28, 2005 pursuant to Section 3.09(a) may be paid for only
in cash and not in Class A Common Stock.

     (b)  Purchase with Cash. On each Purchase Date or Fundamental Change
          ------------------
Purchase Date, at the option of the Company, the Purchase Price or Fundamental
Change Purchase Price of Securities in respect of which a Purchase Notice or
Fundamental Change Purchase Notice has been given, or a specified percentage
thereof, may be paid by the Company with cash equal to the aggregate Purchase
Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price of such Securities. If the Company
elects to purchase Securities with cash, the Company Notice, as provided in
Section 3.10(d), shall be sent to Holders (and to beneficial owners as required
        -------
by applicable law) not less than 20 Business Days prior to such Purchase Date in
the case of a purchase pursuant to Section 3.09(a) or in conjunction with

                                       32

<PAGE>

the mailing of written notice of Fundamental Change pursuant to Section 3.08(b)
in the case of a purchase pursuant to Section 3.08(a) (the "Company Notice
Date").

     (c)  Payment by Issuance of Class A Common Stock. On each Purchase Date
          -------------------------------------------
after January 28, 2005 or on any Fundamental Change Purchase Date, at the option
of the Company, the Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price of
Securities in respect of which a Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase
Notice has been given, or a specified percentage thereof, may be paid by the
Company by the issuance of a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to
the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the amount of cash to which the
Securityholders would have been entitled had the Company elected to pay all or
such specified percentage, as the case may be, of the Purchase Price or
Fundamental Change Purchase Price of such Securities in cash by (ii) the Market
Price of a share of Class A Common Stock, subject to the next succeeding
paragraph.

     The date for on which the Market Price will be determined (for purposes of
calculating the Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price as the case
may be) will be selected by the Company and disclosed to Holders pursuant to
Section 3.10(d). Since the Market Price of Class A Common Stock will be
determined prior to the applicable Purchase Date or Fundamental Change Purchase
Date, Holders will bear the market risk with respect to the value of the Class A
Common Stock to be received from the date such Market Price is determined to the
Purchase Date or Fundamental Change Purchase Date.

     The Company will not issue a fractional share of Class A Common Stock in
payment of the Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price. Instead the
Company will pay cash for the current market value of the fractional share. The
current market value of a fraction of a share shall be determined by multiplying
the Market Price by such fraction and rounding the product to the nearest whole
cent. It is understood that if a Holder elects to have more than one Security
purchased, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock shall be based on the
aggregate amount of Securities to be purchased.

     If the Company elects to purchase the Securities by the issuance of shares
of Class A Common Stock, the Company Notice, as provided in Section 3.10(d),
                                                                    -------
shall be sent to the Holders (and to beneficial owners as required by applicable
law) not later than the Company Notice Date.

     The Company's right to exercise its election to purchase the Securities
pursuant to Section 3.08 or 3.09 through the issuance of shares of Class A
                            ----
Common Stock shall be conditioned upon:

          (i)  the Company's not having given its Company Notice of an election
     to pay entirely in cash and its giving of timely Company Notice of

                                       33

<PAGE>

     election to purchase all or a specified percentage of the Securities with
     Class A Common Stock as provided herein;

          (ii)  the registration of the shares of Class A Common Stock to be
     issued in respect of the payment of the Purchase Price under the Securities
     Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the Securities Exchange
     Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), in each case, if required;

          (iii) any necessary qualification or registration under applicable
     state securities laws or the availability of an exemption from such
     qualification and registration; and

          (iv)  the receipt by the Trustee of an Officers' Certificate and an
     Opinion of Counsel each stating that (A) the terms of the issuance of the
     Class A Common Stock are in conformity with this Indenture and (B) the
     shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued by the Company in payment of
     the Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price in respect of
     Securities have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered
     pursuant to the terms of this Indenture in payment of the Purchase Price or
     Fundamental Change Purchase Price in respect of the Securities, will be
     validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and, to the best of such
     counsel's knowledge, free from preemptive rights, and, in the case of such
     Officers' Certificate, stating that conditions (i), (ii) and (iii) above
     and the condition set forth in the second succeeding sentence have been
     satisfied and, in the case of such Opinion of Counsel, stating that
     conditions (ii) and (iii) above has been satisfied.

     Such Officers' Certificate shall also set forth the number of shares of
Class A Common Stock to be issued for each $1,000 Principal Amount at Maturity
of Securities and the Sale Price of a share of Class A Common Stock on each
trading day during the period commencing on the first trading day of the period
during which the Market Price is calculated and ending on the applicable
Purchase Date. The Company may pay the Purchase Price or Fundamental Change
Purchase Price (or any portion thereof) in Class A Common Stock only if the
information necessary to calculate the Market Price is published in The Wall
Street Journal or another daily newspaper of national circulation. If the
foregoing conditions are not satisfied with respect to a Holder or Holders prior
to the close of business on the Purchase Date or Fundamental Change Purchase
Date and the Company has elected to purchase the Securities pursuant to this
Section 3.10 through the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock, the Company
shall pay the entire Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price of the
Securities of such Holder or Holders in cash.

     The "Market Price" means the average of the Sale Prices of the Class A
Common Stock for the five trading day period ending on the third Business Day
prior to the applicable Purchase Date (or if the third Business Day prior to the

                                       34

<PAGE>

applicable Purchase Date is not a trading day, then on the last trading day
prior to the third Business Day prior to the applicable Purchase Date),
appropriately adjusted to take into account the occurrence, during the period
commencing on the first of such trading days during such five trading day period
and ending on such Purchase Date (or other date in question, for the purpose of
adjusting the Conversion Rate), of any event described in Section 11.06, 11.07
                                                                  -----  -----
or 11.08; subject, however, to the conditions set forth in Sections 11.09 and
   -----                                                            -----
11.10.
-----

     The "Sale Price" of the Class A Common Stock on any date means the closing
per share sale price (or, if no closing sale price is reported, the average of
the bid and ask prices or, if more than one in either case, the average of the
average bid and average ask prices) on such date as reported in the composite
transactions for the principal United States securities exchange on which the
Class A Common Stock is traded or, if the Class A Common Stock is not listed on
a United States national or regional securities exchange, as reported by the
National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System. In the
absence of such quotations, the Company shall be entitled to determine the Sale
Price on the basis of such quotations as it considers appropriate.

     (d)  Notice of Election. The Company's notice of election to purchase with
          ------------------
cash or Class A Common Stock or any combination thereof shall be sent to the
Holders (and to beneficial owners as required by applicable law) in the manner
provided in Section 13.02 at the time specified in Section 3.10(b) or (d), as
                    -----                                  -------
applicable (the "Company Notice"). Such Company Notice shall state the manner of
payment elected and shall contain the following information:

     In the event the Company has elected to pay the Purchase Price or
Fundamental Change Purchase Price (or a specified percentage thereof) with Class
A Common Stock, the Company Notice shall:

          (i)   state that each Holder will receive Class A Common Stock with a
     Market Price determined as of a specified date prior to the Purchase Date
     or Fundamental Change Purchase Date equal to such specified percentage of
     the Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price of the Securities
     held by such Holder (except any cash amount to be paid in lieu of
     fractional shares);

          (ii)  set forth the method of calculating the Market Price of the
     Class A Common Stock; and

          (iii) state that because the Market Price of Class A Common Stock will
     be determined prior to the applicable Purchase Date or Fundamental Change
     Purchase Date, Holders will bear the market risk with respect to the value
     of the Class A Common Stock to be received from the date such Market Price
     is determined to the Purchase Date or Fundamental Change Purchase Date.

                                       35

         Price for any security as to which a Purchase Notice has been given and

                              -----------  -------------            -----
                  (I) that, unless the Company defaults in making payment of
         such Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price, Original

practicable after the Purchase Date or Fundamental Change Purchase Date, the
Company shall deliver to each Holder entitled to receive Class A Common Stock
through the Paying Agent, a certificate for the number of full shares of Class A
Common Stock issuable in payment of the Purchase Price or Fundamental Change
Purchase Price and cash in lieu of any fractional interests. The person in whose
name the certificate for Class A Common Stock is registered shall be treated as
a holder of record of shares of Class A Common Stock on the Business Day
following the Purchase Date or Fundamental Change Purchase Date. Subject to
Section 3.10(c), no payment or adjustment will be made for dividends on the

              -----
the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax
due on such issue of shares of Class A Common Stock. However, the Holder shall
pay any such tax which is due because the Holder requests the shares of Class A
Common Stock to be issued in a name other than the Holder's name. The Paying
Agent may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the Class A Common
Stock being issued in a name other than the Holder's name until the Paying Agent
receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax which will be due because the shares of
Class A Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than the

                                       37

by law or regulations.

         Section 3.11. Effect of Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase
Notice. Upon receipt by the Paying Agent of the Purchase Notice or Fundamental
Change Purchase Notice, the Holder of the Security in respect of which such
Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice, as the case may be, was
given shall (unless such Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice
is withdrawn as specified in the following two paragraphs) thereafter be

Price, as the case may be, with respect to such Security. Such Purchase Price or
Fundamental Change Purchase Price shall be paid to such Holder, subject to
receipts of funds and/or securities by the Paying Agent, promptly following the
later of (x) the Purchase Date or the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, as the
case may be, with respect to such Security (provided the conditions in Section
3.08 or Section 3.09, as applicable, have been satisfied) and (y) the time of
delivery of such Security to the Paying Agent by the Holder thereof in the
manner required by Section 3.08 or 3.09, as applicable. Securities in respect of

         A written notice of withdrawal of a Purchase Notice may be in the form
set forth in the preceding paragraph or may be in the form of (i) a conditional

cash in lieu of fractional shares) if there has occurred (prior to, on or after,

required Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice, as the case may
be) and is continuing an Event of Default (other than a default in the payment
of the Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price, as the case may be,
with respect to such Securities). The Paying Agent will promptly return to the
respective Holders thereof any Securities (x) with respect to which a Purchase
Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice, as the case may be, has been
withdrawn in compliance with this Indenture, or (y) held by it during the
continuance of an Event of Default (other than a default in the payment of the
Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price, as the case may be, with
respect to such Securities) in which case, upon such return, the Purchase Notice
or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to
have been withdrawn.

Price. Prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day following
the Purchase Date or the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, as the case may be,

purchased only in part shall be surrendered at the office of the Paying Agent
(with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the
Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder's attorney duly
authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge,
a new Security or Securities, of any authorized denomination as requested by

         Section 3.14. Covenant to Comply with Securities Laws upon Purchase of
Securities. In connection with any offer to purchase or purchase of Securities
under Section 3.08 or 3.09 hereof (provided that such offer or purchase
constitutes an "issuer tender offer" for purposes of Rule 13e-4 (which term, as
used herein, includes any successor provision thereto) under the Exchange Act at
the time of such offer or purchase), the Company shall (i) comply with Rule
13e-4, Rule 14e-1 and any other tender offer rules under the Exchange Act which

Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price, as the case may be;
provided, however, that to the extent that the aggregate amount of cash or
shares of Class A Common Stock deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 3.12
exceeds the aggregate Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price, as
the case may be, of the Securities or portions thereof which the Company is
obligated to purchase as of the Purchase Date or Fundamental Change Purchase
Date, as the case may be, then promptly after the Business Day following the
Purchase Date or Fundamental Change Purchase Date, as the case may be, the
Trustee shall return any such excess to the Company together with interest or
dividends, if any, thereon.

Trustee or the Paying Agent holds, in accordance with this Indenture, money or
securities, if permitted hereunder, sufficient to pay all such amounts then due.

<PAGE>

         The Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay cash interest on
overdue amounts at the rate per annum set forth in paragraph 1 of the
Securities, compounded semiannually, which interest shall accrue from the date
such overdue amount was originally due to the date payment of such amount,
including interest thereon, has been made or duly provided for. All such
interest shall be payable on demand. The accrual of such interest on overdue
amounts shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, the continued accrual of
Original Issue Discount.

         Section 4.02. SEC and Other Reports. The Company shall file with the
Trustee, within 15 days after it files such annual and quarterly reports,
information, documents and other reports with the SEC, copies of its annual

portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations
prescribe) which the Company is required to file with the SEC pursuant to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. In the event the Company is at any time
no longer subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, it shall continue to provide the Trustee with reports containing
substantially the same information as would have been required to be filed with
the SEC had the Company continued to have been subject to such reporting
requirements. In such event, such reports shall be provided at the times the
Company would have been required to provide reports had it continued to have
been subject to such reporting requirements. The Company also shall comply with
the other provisions of TIA Section 314(a).

         Section 4.03. Compliance Certificate. The Company shall deliver to the
Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company

Certificate, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof
the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms,
provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period of
grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and if the Company shall be
in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of
which they may have knowledge.

Broad Street, 5/th/ Floor, Suite 550, New York, NY 10004, shall

                                       41

initially be such office or agency for all of the aforesaid purposes. The
Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and of
any change in the location, of any such office or agency (other than a change in
the location of the office of the Trustee). If at any time the Company shall
fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the
Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and
demands may be made or served at the address of the Trustee set forth in Section
13.02.
-----

         The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other
offices or agencies where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for any
or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations;
provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner
relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the
Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, for such purposes.

         Section 4.06. Delivery of Certain Information. At any time when the
Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, upon the
request of a holder or any beneficial holder of Securities or shares of Class A

required to permit compliance by such Holder or holder with Rule 144A under the
Securities Act in connection with the resale of any such security. "Rule 144A

144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

         Section 4.07. Calculation of Original Issue Discount. The Company shall
file with the Trustee promptly at the end of each calendar year (i) a written
notice specifying the amount of original issue discount (including daily rates

amended from time to time.

relating to such transaction have been satisfied.

         For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale
or otherwise) of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries (other
than to the Company or another Subsidiary), which, if such assets were owned by
the Company, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and
assets of the Company, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or
substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company.

         The successor person formed by such consolidation or into which the
Company is merged or the successor person to which such conveyance, transfer or
lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every
right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if
such successor had been named as the Company herein; and thereafter, except in
the case of a lease and obligations the Company may have under a supplemental
indenture pursuant to Section 11.14, the Company shall be discharged from all
                              -----
obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities. Subject to
Section 9.02, the Company, the Trustee and the successor person shall enter into
        ----
a supplemental indenture to evidence the succession and substitution of such
successor person and such discharge and release of the Company.

Principal Amount, plus accrued interest) on all the Securities shall become and
be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part
of the Trustee or any Securityholders. The Holders of a majority in aggregate
Principal Amount at Maturity of the Securities at the time outstanding, by
notice to the Trustee (and without notice to any other Securityholder) may
rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not
conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have
been cured or waived except nonpayment of the Issue Price plus accrued Original
Issue Discount and any accrued cash interest (or, if the Securities have been
converted to Cash Pay Securities following a Tax Event, the Restated Principal
Amount, plus accrued interest) that have become due solely as a result of
acceleration and if all amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06 have been
                                                                 ----
paid. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right
consequent thereto.

     Section 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment
of the Issue Price plus accrued Original Issue Discount and any accrued cash
interest (or, if the Securities have been converted to Cash Pay Securities
following a Tax Event, the Restated Principal Amount, plus accrued interest) on
the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities
or this Indenture.

     The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if the Trustee does not possess
any of the Securities or produce any of the Securities in the proceeding. A
delay or omission by the Trustee or any Securityholder in exercising any right
or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy
or constitute a waiver of, or acquiescence in, the Event of Default. No remedy
is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative.

     Section 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in
aggregate Principal Amount at Maturity of the Securities at the time
outstanding, by notice to the Trustee (and without notice to any other
Securityholder), may waive an existing Default and its consequences except (1)
an Event of Default described in Section 6.01(1) or (2), (2) a Default in
                                         ----
respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the
                                          ----
consent of each Securityholder affected or (3) a Default which constitutes a
failure to convert any Security in accordance with the terms of Article 11. When
                                                                        --
a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right. This Section 6.04
                                                                         ----

Principal Amount at Maturity of the Securities at the time outstanding may
direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the
Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts
with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines in good faith is
unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Securityholders or would involve the
Trustee in personal liability unless the Trustee is offered indemnity
satisfactory to it against loss, liability or expense. This Section 6.05 shall
                                                                    ----

     Maturity of the Securities at the time outstanding make a written request
     to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

          (3)  such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee reasonable security
     or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or
     expense;

          (4)  the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after
     receipt of such notice, request and offer of security or indemnity; and

          (5)  the Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount at
     Maturity of the Securities at the time outstanding do not give the Trustee
     a direction inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period.

other Securityholder or to obtain a preference or priority over any other
Securityholder.

enforceable) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any
manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or

converted to Cash Pay Securities following a Tax Event, the Restated Principal

performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so and to the extent legally enforceable) hereby expressly waives
all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder,
delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but

                                     Trustee

     Section 7.01. Duties and Responsibilities of the Trustee; During Default;
Prior to Default. The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder and after the curing or waiving of all such Events of Default which
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 hereunder
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 hereunder and after the
curing or waiving of all such Events of Default which may have occurred:

          (i)  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

          (ii) 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

                                       51

<PAGE>

     correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any statements,
     certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the
     requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such statements,
     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 of the Trustee, 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
Holders pursuant to Section 6.05 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 the Trustee believes in good faith that the repayment
of such funds or adequate indemnity against such liability is not reasonably
assured to it.

Sections 315 and 316 of the TIA.

     (a)  the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining
from acting upon any resolution, Officers' Certificate or any other certificate,

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, suffered or omitted to be taken by it hereunder in

<PAGE>

     (d)  the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts
or powers vested in it by this Indenture with the request, order or direction of

indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred
therein or thereby;

order, approval, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, coupon, security, or other
paper or document unless requested in writing to do so by the Holders of not
less than a majority in aggregate Principal Amount at Maturity of the Securities
then outstanding; provided 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 expenses or
liabilities as a condition to proceeding; the reasonable expenses of every such
investigation shall be paid by the Company or, if paid by the Trustee or any
predecessor trustee, shall be repaid by the Company upon demand; and

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

     Section 7.03. Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals, Disposition of
Securities or Application of Proceeds Thereof. The recitals contained herein and
in the Securities, except the Trustee's certificates of authentication, shall be
taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no
responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no
representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the
Securities. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by
the Company of any of the Securities or of the proceeds thereof.

     Section 7.04. Trustee and Agents May Hold Securities; Collections, etc.
The Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee, in its individual or any
other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities with the same
rights it would have if it were not the Trustee or such agent and, subject to

                                       53

<PAGE>

Sections 7.08 and 7.13, if operative, may otherwise deal with the Company and
         ----     ----
receive, collect, hold and retain collections from the Company with the same
rights it would have if it were not the Trustee or such agent.

     Section 7.05. Moneys Held by Trustee. Subject to the provisions of Section
8.02 hereof, all moneys received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as
herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received,
but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
mandatory provisions of law. Neither the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or
the Trustee shall be under any liability for interest on any moneys received by
it hereunder.

     Section 7.06. Compensation and Indemnification of Trustee and its Prior
Claim. The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time,
and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such compensation (which shall not be
limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an
express trust) to be agreed to in writing by the Trustee and the Company, and
the Company covenants and agrees to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each
predecessor Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements
and advances incurred or made by or on behalf of it in accordance with any of
the provisions of this Indenture (including (i) the reasonable compensation and
the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all agents and other
persons not regularly in its employ and (ii) interest at the prime rate on any
disbursements and advances made by the Trustee and not paid by the Company
within 5 days after receipt of an invoice for such disbursement or advance)
except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its
negligence or bad faith. The Company also covenants to indemnify the Trustee and
each predecessor Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss,
liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part,
arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this
Indenture or the trusts hereunder and its duties hereunder, including the costs
and expenses of defending itself against or investigating any claim of liability
in the premises. The obligations of the Company under this Section to compensate
and indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee and to pay or reimburse
the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for expenses, disbursements and
advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive
the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Such additional indebtedness
shall be a senior claim 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, and the Securities are hereby
effectively subordinated to such senior claim to such extent. The provisions of
this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

     Section 7.07. Right of Trustee to Rely on Officers' Certificate, etc.
Subject to Sections 7.01 and 7.02, whenever in the administration of the trusts
                    ----     ----
of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter
be proved or established prior to taking or suffering or omitting any action

                                       54

<PAGE>

hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be 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, suffered or omitted by it under the
provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.

     Section 7.08. Conflicting Interests. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a
conflicting interest within the meaning of the TIA, the Trustee shall either
eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by,
and subject to the provisions of, the TIA.

     Section 7.09. Persons Eligible for Appointment as Trustee. The Trustee

capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such corporation or banking
association publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or
to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then,
for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth
in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect
specified in Section 7.10.

resign with respect to one or more or all series of Securities by giving written

class mail to the Holders of Securities at their last 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, executed by authority of the Board of Directors, one
copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one
copy to the successor trustee or trustees. If no successor trustee shall have
been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the mailing
of such notice of resignation, 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 7.11, 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.

     7.08 with respect to any Securities after written request therefor by the

                                       55

<PAGE>

         Company or by any Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a
         Security for at least six months; or

                 (ii)  the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with
         the provisions of Section 7.09 and shall fail to resign after written

         request therefor by the Company or by any Securityholder; or

                 (iii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be
         adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver or liquidator 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;
         or

                 (iv)  the Company shall determine that the Trustee has failed
         to perform its obligations under this Indenture in any material
         respect;

then, in any such case, the Company may remove the Trustee and appoint a
successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the
Board of Directors of the Company, 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 7.11, 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. If no successor
trustee shall have been appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days
after a notice of removal has been given, the removed trustee may petition a
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.

         (c)  The Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount at
Maturity of the Securities at the time outstanding may at any time remove the
Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by delivering to the Trustee so removed,
to the successor trustee so appointed and to the Company the evidence provided
for in Section 1.05 of the action in that regard taken by the Securityholders.
               ----

         (d)  Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and any appointment of a
successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 7.10 shall
                                                                    ----
become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as
provided in Section 7.11.
                    ----

         Section 7.11.  Acceptance of Appointment by Successor Trustee. Any
successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.10 shall execute and
                                                   ----
deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting
such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the
predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without
any

                                       56

<PAGE>

further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all rights, powers,
duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if
originally named as trustee hereunder; but, nevertheless, on the written request
of the Company or of the successor trustee, upon payment of its charges then
unpaid, the trustee ceasing to act shall pay over to the successor trustee all
moneys at the time held by it hereunder and shall execute and deliver an
instrument transferring to such successor trustee all such rights, powers,
duties and obligations. 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 prior claim upon all
property or funds held or collected by such trustee to secure any amounts then
due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06. ----

         No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 7.11 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall
        ----
be qualified under the provisions of Section 7.08 and eligible under the
                                             ----
provisions of Section 7.09.
                      ----

         Upon acceptance of appointment by any successor trustee as provided in
this Section 7.11, the Company shall mail notice thereof by first class mail to
             ----
the Holders of Securities at their last addresses as they shall appear in the
register. If the acceptance of appointment is substantially contemporaneous with
the resignation, then the notice called for by the preceding sentence may be
combined with the notice called for by Section 7.10. If the Company fails to
                                               ----
mail such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the
successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at
the expense of the Company.

         Section 7.12. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to
Business of Trustee. Any corporation or banking association into which the
Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any
corporation or banking association resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or
banking association, succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate
trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder,
provided that such corporation or banking association shall be qualified under
the provisions of Section 7.08 and eligible under the provisions of Section
7.09, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the
----
part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding. In case at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed
to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Securities shall have been
authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the 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 to the Trustee may authenticate
such Securities either in the name of any

                                       57

<PAGE>

predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee; and in all such
cases such certificate shall have the full force and effect that this Indenture
provides for the certificate of authentication of the Trustee; provided, that
the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee
or to authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply
only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

         Section 7.13. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company.
The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of Section 311 of the TIA.

         Section 7.14. Reports by the Trustee. (a) The Trustee shall transmit to
Holders and other persons such reports concerning the Trustee and its actions
under this Indenture as may be required pursuant to the TIA on or before July 15
in each year that such report is required, such reports to be dated as of the
immediately preceding May 15.

          (b) A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission
to Securityholders, be furnished to the Company and be filed by the Trustee with
each stock exchange upon which the Securities are listed and also with the SEC.
The Company agrees to notify the Trustee when and as the Securities become
admitted to trading on any national securities exchange.

Certain Circumstances. The Trustee shall transmit to the Securityholders, as the
names and addresses of such Holders appear on the Security register, notice by
mail of all Defaults which have occurred, such notice to be transmitted within
90 days after the occurrence thereof, unless such defaults shall have been cured
before the giving of such; provided that, except in the case of Default in the
payment of the principal of, interest on, or other similar obligation with
respect to, 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 or trustees and/or Responsible Officers of the
Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the
interests of the Securityholders.

                                    ARTICLE 8
                             Discharge of Indenture

Company delivers to the Trustee all outstanding Securities (other than
Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07) for cancellation or (ii) all
                                        ----
outstanding Securities have become due and payable and the Company deposits with
the Trustee cash or, if expressly permitted by the terms of the Securities,
Class A Common Stock sufficient to pay all amounts due and owing on all
outstanding

                                       58

                                                               ----
either case the Company pays all other sums payable hereunder by the Company,
then this Indenture shall, subject to Section 7.06, cease to be of further
                                              ----
effect. The Trustee shall join in the execution of a document prepared by the

at the cost and expense of the Company.

look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable
abandoned property law designates another person and the Trustee and the Paying
Agent shall have no further liability to the Securityholders with respect to
such money or securities for that period commencing after the return thereof.

                                    ARTICLE 9

               (4)     to make any change that does not materially adversely

Holders of at least a majority in aggregate Principal Amount at Maturity of the
Securities at the time outstanding, the Company and the Trustee may amend this
Indenture or the Securities. However, without the consent of each Securityholder
affected, an amendment to this Indenture or the Securities may not:

         Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment;

               (2)     make any change in the manner or rate of accrual in

         any payment with respect to, or conversion of, the Securities.

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

         After an amendment under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the

Until an amendment, waiver or other action by Holders becomes effective, a
consent thereto by a Holder of a Security hereunder is a continuing consent by
the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the
Security that evidences the same obligation as the consenting Holder's Security,
even if notation of the consent, waiver or action is not made on the Security.
However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent, waiver or
action as to such Holder's Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee

                          Special Tax Event Conversion

         Section 10.01. Optional Conversion to Cash Pay Securities Upon Tax
Event. From and after (i) the date (the "Tax Event Date") of the occurrence of a
Tax Event and (ii) the date the Company exercises such option, whichever is
later (the "Option Exercise Date"), at the option of the Company, interest in
lieu of future Original Issue Discount and regular cash interest shall accrue at
the rate of 0.875% per annum on a restated principal amount per $1,000 original
Principal Amount at Maturity (the "Restated Principal Amount") equal to the
Issue Price plus Original Issue Discount accrued through the Option Exercise
Date and shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date to Holders of record at
the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding such
Interest Payment Date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year
comprised of twelve 30-day months and will accrue from the most recent date on
which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the Option
Exercise Date. Within 15 days of the occurrence of a Tax Event, the Company
shall mail a written notice of such Tax Event by facsimile and first-class mail
to the Trustee and within 15 days of its exercise of such option the Company
shall mail a written notice of the Option Exercise Date by facsimile and
first-class mail to the Trustee and by first class mail to the Holders of the
Securities. From and after the Option Exercise Date, (i) the Company shall be
obligated to pay at Stated Maturity, in lieu of the Principal Amount at Maturity
of a Security, the Restated Principal Amount thereof and (ii) "Issue Price and
accrued Original Issue Discount," "Issue Price plus Original Issue Discount" or
similar words, as used herein, shall mean Restated Principal Amount plus accrued
and unpaid interest with respect to any Security. Securities authenticated and
delivered after the Option Exercise Date may, and shall if required by the
Trustee, bear a notation in a form approved by the Trustee as to the conversion
of the Securities to Cash Pay Securities.

         Section 10.02. Payment of Cash Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. (a)
Cash interest on any Security that is payable, and is punctually paid or duly
provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the person in whose
name that Security is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record
Date for such cash interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained
for such purpose. Each installment of cash interest on any Security shall be
paid in same-day funds by transfer to an account maintained by the payee located
inside the United States. In the case of a permanent Global Security, any cash
interest payable on any Interest Payment Date will be paid to the Depositary,
with respect to that portion of such permanent Global Security held for its
account by Cede & Co. for the purpose of permitting such party to credit the
cash interest received by it in respect of such permanent Global Security to the
accounts of the beneficial owners thereof.

<PAGE>

         (b) Except as otherwise specified with respect to the Securities, any
cash interest on any Security that is payable, but is not punctually paid or
duly provided for within 30 days following, on any Interest Payment Date (herein
called "Defaulted Interest", which term shall include any accrued and unpaid
interest that has accrued on such defaulted amount in accordance with paragraph
1 of the Securities), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered
Holder thereof on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such
Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, as its election
in each case, as provided in clause (1) or (2) below:

             (1)  The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted
         Interest to the persons in whose names the Securities are registered at
         the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such
         Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The
         Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted
         Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the
         proposed payment (which shall not be less than 20 days after such
         notice is received by the Trustee), 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 on or 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 days and not
         less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not
         less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the
         proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such
         Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company,
         shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest
         and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage
         prepaid, to each Holder of Securities at his address as it appears on
         the list of Securityholders maintained pursuant to Section 2.05 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 the Securities are registered at
         the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer
         be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

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

         Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 2.06,
each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or
in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to
interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other
Security.

         Section 11.01. Conversion Privilege. A Holder of a Security may convert
such Security into Class A Common Stock at any time during the period in which
the conditions stated in paragraph 8 of the Securities are met. The number of
shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a Security per $1,000
of Principal Amount at Maturity thereof (the "Conversion Rate") shall be that

forth.

         A Holder may convert a portion of the Principal Amount at Maturity of a
Security if the portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. Provisions
of this Indenture that apply to conversion of all of a Security also apply to
conversion of a portion of a Security.

         "Average Quoted Price" means the average of the Sale Prices of the
Class A Common Stock for the shorter of

         Average Quoted Price is being calculated, or

         first public announcement of (a) the issuance of rights, warrants or
         options or (b) the distribution, in each case, in respect of which the
         Average Quoted Price is being calculated and (y) proceeding through the
         last full trading day prior to the Time of Determination with respect
         to the rights, warrants or options or distribution in respect of which
         the Average Quoted Price is being calculated (excluding days within
         such period, if any, which are not trading days), or

                (iii) the period, if any, (x) commencing on the date next
         succeeding the ExDividend Time with respect to the next preceding (a)
         issuance of rights, warrants or options or (b) distribution, in each
         case, for which an adjustment is required by the provisions of Section
         11.06(4), 11.07 or 11.08 and (y) proceeding through the last full
         trading day prior to the Time of Determination with respect to the
         rights, warrants or options

                                       64

         calculated (excluding days within such period, if any, which are not
         trading days).

         In the event that the Ex-Dividend Time (or in the case of a
subdivision, combination or reclassification, the effective date with respect
thereto) with respect to a dividend, subdivision, combination or
reclassification to which Section 11.06(1), (2), (3) or (5) applies occurs
during the period applicable for calculating "Average Quoted Price" pursuant to
the definition in the preceding sentence, "Average Quoted Price" shall be
calculated for such period in a manner determined by the Board of Directors to
reflect the impact of such dividend, subdivision, combination or
reclassification on the Sale Price of the Common Stock during such period.

         "Time of Determination" means the time and date of the earlier of (i)
the determination of stockholders entitled to receive rights, warrants or
options or a distribution, in each case, to which Section 11.07 or 11.08 applies
                                                          -----    -----
and (ii) the time ("Ex-Dividend Time") immediately prior to the commencement of
"ex-dividend" trading for such rights, warrants or options or distribution on
the New York Stock Exchange or such other national or regional exchange or
market on which the Class A Common Stock is then listed or quoted.

         Section 11.02. Conversion Procedure. To convert a Security a Holder
must satisfy the requirements in paragraph 8 of the Securities. The date on
which the Holder satisfies all those requirements is the conversion date (the
"Conversion Date"). As soon as practicable after the Conversion Date but in any
event no later than the seventh Business Day following the Conversion Date, the
Company shall deliver to the Holder, through the Conversion Agent, a certificate
for the number of full shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion and cash in lieu of any fractional share determined pursuant to
Section 11.03. The person in whose name the certificate is registered shall be
        -----
treated as a stockholder of record on and after the Conversion Date; provided,
however, that no surrender of a Security on any date when the stock transfer
books of the Company shall be closed shall be effective to constitute the person
or persons entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock upon such
conversion as the record holder or holders of such shares of Class A Common
Stock on such date, but such surrender shall be effective to constitute the
person or persons entitled to receive such shares of Class A Common Stock as the
record holder or holders thereof for all purposes at the close of business on
the next succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open; such
conversion shall be at the Conversion Rate in effect on the date that such
Security shall have been surrendered for conversion, as if the stock transfer
books of the Company had not been closed. Upon conversion of a Security, such
person shall no longer be a Holder of such Security.

                                       65

<PAGE>

         No payment or adjustment will be made for dividends on, or other
distributions with respect to, any Class A Common Stock except as provided in
this Article 11. On conversion of a Security, that portion of accrued Original
Issue Discount (or interest, if the Company has exercised its option provided
for in Section 10.01) or (except as provided below) accrued cash interest
               -----
attributable to the period from the Issue Date (or, if the Company has exercised
the option provided for in Section 10.01, the later of (x) the date of such
                                   -----
exercise and (y) the date on which interest was last paid) of the Security or
the date on which interest was last paid through the Conversion Date with
respect to the converted Security shall not be cancelled, extinguished or
forfeited, but rather shall be deemed to be paid in full to the Holder thereof
through delivery of the Class A Common Stock (together with the cash payment, if
any, in lieu of fractional shares) in exchange for the Security being converted
pursuant to the provisions hereof; and the fair market value of such shares of
Class A Common Stock (together with any such cash payment in lieu of fractional
shares) shall be treated as issued, to the extent thereof, first in exchange for
Original Issue Discount (or interest, if the Company has exercised its option
provided for in Section 10.01) and cash interest accrued through the Conversion
                        -----
Date, and the balance, if any, of such fair market value of such Class A Common
Stock (and any such cash payment) shall be treated as issued in exchange for the
Issue Price of the Security being converted pursuant to the provisions hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, accrued but unpaid cash interest will be payable
upon conversion of Securities made concurrently with or after acceleration of
Securities following an Event of Default.

         If the Holder converts more than one Security at the same time, the
number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the conversion shall be
based on the total Principal Amount at Maturity of the Securities converted.

         If the last day on which a Security may be converted is a Legal
Holiday, the Security may be surrendered on the next succeeding day that is not
a Legal Holiday.

         Upon surrender of a Security that is converted in part, the Company
shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder, a
new Security in an authorized denomination equal in Principal Amount at Maturity
to the unconverted portion of the Security surrendered.

         Section 11.03. Fractional Shares. The Company will not issue a
fractional share of Class A Common Stock upon conversion of a Security. Instead,
the Company will deliver cash for the current market value of the fractional
share. The current market value of a fractional share shall be determined, to
the nearest 1/1,000th of a share, by multiplying the Sale Price, on the last
trading day prior to the Conversion Date, of a full share by the fractional
amount and rounding the product to the nearest whole cent.

         Section 11.04. Taxes on Conversion. If a Holder converts a Security,
the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax
due on

                                       66

<PAGE>

the issue of shares of Class A Common Stock upon the conversion. However, the
Holder shall pay any such tax which is due because the Holder requests the
shares to be issued in a name other than the Holder's name. The Conversion Agent
may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the Class A Common Stock
being issued in a name other than the Holder's name until the Conversion Agent
receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax which will be due because the shares
are to be issued in a name other than the Holder's name. Nothing herein shall
preclude any tax withholding required by law or regulations.

         Section 11.05. Company to Provide Stock. The Company shall, prior to
issuance of any Securities under this Article 11, and from time to time as may
                                              --
be necessary, reserve out of its authorized but unissued Class A Common Stock a
sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to permit the conversion of the
Securities.

         All shares of Class A Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the
Securities shall be newly issued shares or treasury shares, shall be duly and
validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable and shall be free from
preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim.

         The Company will endeavor promptly to comply with all federal and state
securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of shares of Class A Common
Stock upon conversion of Securities, if any, and will list or cause to have
quoted such shares of Class A Common Stock on each national securities exchange
or in the over-the-counter market or such other market on which the Class A
Common Stock is then listed or quoted.

         Section 11.06. Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock. If, after the
Issue Date of the Securities, the Company:

                (1) pays a dividend or makes a distribution on its Class A
         Common Stock in shares of its Class A Common Stock;

                (2) subdivides its outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock
         into a greater number of shares;

                (3) combines its outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock into
         a smaller number of shares;

                (4) pays a dividend or makes a distribution on its Class A
         Common Stock in shares of its Capital Stock (other than Class A Common
         Stock or rights, warrants or options for its Capital Stock); or

                (5) issues by reclassification of its Class A Common Stock any
         shares of its Capital Stock (other than rights, warrants or options for
         its Capital Stock);

                                       67

<PAGE>

then the conversion privilege and the Conversion Rate in effect immediately
prior to such action shall be adjusted so that the Holder of a Security
thereafter converted may receive the number of shares of Capital Stock of the
Company which such Holder would have owned immediately following such action if
such Holder had converted the Security immediately prior to such action.

         The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date
in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective
date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.

         If after an adjustment a Holder of a Security upon conversion of such
Security may receive shares of two or more classes of Capital Stock of the
Company, the Conversion Rate shall thereafter be subject to adjustment upon the
occurrence of an action taken with respect to any such class of Capital Stock as
is contemplated by this Article 11 with respect to the Class A Common Stock, on
                                --
terms comparable to those applicable to Class A Common Stock in this Article 11.
                                                                             --

         Section 11.07. Adjustment for Rights Issue. If after the Issue Date of
the Securities, the Company distributes any rights, warrants or options to all
holders of its Class A Common Stock entitling them, for a period expiring within
60 days after the record date for such distribution, to purchase shares of Class
A Common Stock at a price per share less than the Market Price as of the Time of
Determination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted in accordance with the
formula:

                                   R' = R x      (O + N)
                                             ---------------
                                             (O + (N x P)/M)
         where:

         R' = the adjusted Conversion Rate.

         R = the current Conversion Rate.

         O = the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding on the
record date for the distribution to which this Section 11.07 is being applied.
                                                       -----

         N = the number of additional shares of Class A Common Stock offered
pursuant to the distribution.

         P = the offering price per share of the additional shares.

         M = the Average Quoted Price, minus, in the case of (i) a distribution
to which Section 11.06(4) applies or (ii) a distribution to which Section 11.08
                                                                          -----
applies, for which, in each case, (x) the record date shall occur on or before
the

the Ex-Dividend Time shall occur on or after the date of the Time of
Determination for the distribution to which this Section 11.07 applies, the fair

11.07 applies) of the

         share of Class A Common Stock in such Section 11.06(4) distribution and

                (2) assets of the Company or debt securities or any rights,
         warrants or options to purchase securities of the Company distributed
         in respect of each share of Class A Common Stock in such Section 11.08
                                                                          -----
         distribution.

The Board of Directors shall determine fair market values for purposes of this
Section 11.07.
        -----

         The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date
for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive the rights, warrants
or options to which this Section 11.07 applies. If all of the shares of Class A
                                 -----
Common Stock subject to such rights, warrants or options have not been issued
when such rights, warrants or options expire, then the Conversion Rate shall
promptly be readjusted to the Conversion Rate which would then be in effect had
the adjustment upon the issuance of such rights, warrants or options been made
on the basis of the actual number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued upon
the exercise of such rights, warrants or options.

         No adjustment shall be made under this Section 11.07 if the application
                                                        -----
of the formula stated above in this Section 11.07 would result in a value of R'
                                            -----
that is equal to or less than the value of R.

         Section 11.08. Adjustment for Other Distributions. If, after the Issue
Date of the Securities, the Company distributes to all holders of its Class A
Common Stock any of its assets, or evidences of indebtedness of the Company or
any rights, warrants or options to purchase securities of the Company (including
securities or cash, but excluding (x) distributions of Capital Stock referred to
in Section 11.06 and distributions of rights, warrants or options referred to in
           -----
Section 11.07 and (y) cash dividends or other cash distributions that are paid
        -----
out of consolidated current net earnings or earnings retained in the business as
shown on the books of the Company unless such cash dividends or other cash
distributions are Extraordinary Cash Dividends) the Conversion Rate shall be
adjusted, subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of this Section 11.08,
                                                                          -----

case of cash dividends or other cash distributions giving rise to an adjustment,
all such cash distributed concurrently).

         The Board of Directors shall determine fair market values for purposes
         of this Section 11.08.
                         -----

         The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date
for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive the distribution to
which this Section 11.08 applies.

                For purposes of this Section 11.08, the term "Extraordinary Cash
                                             -----
         Dividend" shall mean any cash dividend with respect to the Class A
         Common Stock the amount of which, together with the aggregate amount of
         cash dividends on the Class A Common Stock to be aggregated with such
         cash dividend in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph,
         equals or exceeds the threshold percentages set forth below:

                If, upon the date prior to the Ex-Dividend Time with respect to
         a cash dividend on the Class A Common Stock, the aggregate amount of

         the Class A Common Stock with ExDividend Times occurring in the 365
         consecutive day period ending on the date prior to the Ex-Dividend Time
         with respect to the cash dividend to which this provision is being
         applied equals or exceeds on a per share basis 10% of the Market Price
         of the Class A Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding

     this provision is being applied, such cash dividend together with each
     other cash dividend with an Ex-Dividend Time occurring in such 365 day
     period shall be deemed to be an Extraordinary Cash Dividend and for
     purposes of applying the formula set forth above in this Section 11.08, the
                                                                      -----

     In addition, in case a tender or exchange offer (other than an odd-lot
offer) made by, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for all or any
portion of the Company's Common Stock shall expire and such tender or exchange
offer shall involve the payment by the Company or such Subsidiary of
consideration per share of Class A Common Stock having a fair market value (as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be
conclusive and described in a resolution of the Board of Directors) at the last
time (the "Expiration Time") tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such
tender or exchange offer (as it shall have been amended) that exceeds 110% of
the Market Price on the trading day next succeeding the Expiration Time, the
Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate
determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the
effectiveness of the Conversion Rate increase contemplated by this paragraph by
a fraction of which the numerator shall be the sum of (x) the fair market value

based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender
or exchange offer) of all shares validly tendered or exchanged and not withdrawn
as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted, up to any such
maximum, being referred to as the "Purchased Shares") and (y) the product of the
number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares)
at the Expiration Time and the Market Price on the trading day next succeeding
the Expiration Time, and the denominator shall be the number of

shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered or exchanged
shares) at the Expiration Time multiplied by the Market Price on the trading day
next succeeding the Expiration Time, such increase to become effective
immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration
Time.

         SECTION 11.09. When Adjustment May Be Deferred. No adjustment in the
Conversion Rate need be made unless the adjustment would require an increase or
decrease of at least 1% in the Conversion Rate. Any adjustments that are not
made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent
adjustment.

         All calculations under this Article 11 shall be made to the nearest

cent or to the nearest 1/1,000th of a share, as the case may be.

         SECTION 11.10. When No Adjustment Required. No adjustment need be made
for a transaction referred to in Section 11.06, 11.07, 11.08 or 11.14 if
                                         -----  -----  -----    -----
Securityholders are to participate in the transaction on a basis and with notice
that the Board of Directors determines to be fair and appropriate in light of
the basis and notice on which holders of Class A Common Stock participate in the
transaction. Such participation by Securityholders may include participation
upon conversion provided that an adjustment shall be made at such time as the
Securityholders are no longer entitled to participate.

         No adjustment need be made for rights to purchase Class A Common Stock
pursuant to a Company plan for reinvestment of dividends or interest.

         No adjustment need be made for a change in the par value or no par
value of the Common Stock.

         To the extent the Securities become convertible pursuant to this
Article 11 into cash, no adjustment need be made thereafter as to the cash.

Interest will not accrue on the cash.

         SECTION 11.11. Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Conversion Rate is
adjusted, the Company shall promptly mail to Securityholders a notice of the
adjustment. The Company shall file with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent
such notice and a certificate from the Company's independent public accountants
briefly stating the facts requiring the adjustment and the manner of computing
it. The certificate shall be conclusive evidence that the adjustment is correct.
Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any duty or
responsibility with respect to any such certificate except to exhibit the same
to any Holder desiring inspection thereof.

         SECTION 11.12. Voluntary Increase. The Company from time to time may
increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for any period of time. Whenever the
Conversion Rate is increased, the Company shall mail to

                                       72

<PAGE>

Securityholders and file with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent a notice of
the increase. The Company shall mail the notice at least 15 days before the date
the increased Conversion Rate takes effect. The notice shall state the increased
Conversion Rate and the period it will be in effect.

     A voluntary increase of the Conversion Rate does not change or adjust the
Conversion Rate otherwise in effect for purposes of Section 11.06, 11.07 or
                                                            -----  -----

     SECTION 11.13. Notice of Certain Transactions. If:

          (1)  the Company takes any action that would require an adjustment in
     the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 11.06, 11.07 or 11.08 (unless no
                                             -----  -----    -----
     adjustment is to occur pursuant to Section 11.10); or

          (2)  the Company takes any action that would require a supplemental
     indenture pursuant to Section 11.14; or
                                   -----

          (3)  there is a liquidation or dissolution of the Company;

then the Company shall mail to Securityholders and file with the Trustee and the
Conversion Agent a notice stating the proposed record date for a dividend or
distribution or the proposed effective date of a subdivision, combination,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, transfer,
liquidation or dissolution. The Company shall file and mail the notice at least
15 days before such date. Failure to file or mail the notice or any defect in it
shall not affect the validity of the transaction.

     SECTION 11.14. Reorganization of Company; Special Distributions. If the
Company is a party to a transaction subject to Section 5.01 (other than a sale
                                                       ----
of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in a transaction in
which the holders of Class A Common Stock immediately prior to such transaction
do not receive securities, cash or other assets of the Company or any other
person) or a merger or binding share exchange which reclassifies or changes its
outstanding Class A Common Stock, the person obligated to deliver securities,
cash or other assets upon conversion of Securities shall enter into a
supplemental indenture. If the issuer of securities deliverable upon conversion
of Securities is an Affiliate of the successor Company, that issuer shall join
in the supplemental indenture.

     The supplemental indenture shall provide that the Holder of a Security may
convert it into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets which
such Holder would have received immediately after the consolidation, merger,
binding share exchange or transfer if such Holder had converted the Security
immediately before the effective date of the transaction, assuming (to the
extent applicable) that such Holder (i) was not a constituent person or an
Affiliate of a constituent person to such transaction; (ii) made no election
with respect thereto;

                                       73

and (iii) was treated alike with the plurality of non-electing Holders. The
supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustmentswhich shall be as nearly
equivalent as may be practical to the adjustments provided for in this Article
11. The successor Company shall mail to Securityholders a notice briefly
--
describing the supplemental indenture.

         If this Section applies, neither Section 11.06 nor 11.07 applies.
                                                  -----     -----

         If the Company makes a distribution to all holders of its Class A
Common Stock of any of its assets, or debt securities or any rights, warrants or
options to purchase securities of the Company that, but for the provisions of
the last paragraph of Section 11.08, would otherwise result in an adjustment in
                              -----
the Conversion Rate pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.08, then, from and
                                                          -----
after the record date for determining the holders of Class A Common Stock
entitled to receive the distribution, a Holder of a Security that converts such
Security in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture shall upon such
conversion be entitled to receive, in addition to the shares of Class A Common
Stock into which the Security is convertible, the kind and amount of securities,
cash or other assets comprising the distribution that such Holder would have
received if such Holder had converted the Security immediately prior to the
record date for determining the holders of Class A Common Stock entitled to
receive the distribution.

         SECTION 11.15. Company Determination Final. Any determination that the
Company or the Board of Directors must make pursuant to Section 11.03, 11.06,
                                                                -----  -----

         SECTION 11.16. Trustee's Adjustment Disclaimer. The Trustee has no duty
to determine when an adjustment under this Article 11 should be made, how it
should be made or what it should be. The Trustee has no duty to determine
whether a supplemental indenture under Section 11.14 need be entered into or
                                               -----
whether any provisions of any supplemental indenture are correct. The Trustee
shall not be accountable for and makes no representation as to the validity or
value of any securities or assets issued upon conversion of Securities. The
Trustee shall not be responsible for the Company's failure to comply with this
Article 11 11. Each Conversion Agent shall have the same protection under this
        --
Section 11.16 as the Trustee.
        -----

         SECTION 11.17. Simultaneous Adjustments. In the event that this Article
11 requires adjustments to the Conversion Rate under more than one of Sections
--
11.06(4), 11.07 or 11.08, and the record dates for the distributions giving rise
          -----    -----
to such adjustments shall occur on the same date, then such adjustments shall be
made by applying, first, the provisions of Section 11.06, second, the provisions
                                                   -----
of Section 11.08 and, third, the provisions of Section 11.07.

         SECTION 11.18. Successive Adjustments. After an adjustment to the
Conversion Rate under this Article 11, any subsequent event requiring an

adjustment under this Article 11 shall cause an adjustment to the Conversion
                              --
Rate as so adjusted.

         SECTION 11.19. Rights Issued in Respect of Class A Common Stock Issued
upon Conversion. Each share of Class A Common Stock issued upon conversion of
Securities pursuant to this Article 11 shall be entitled to receive the
                                    --
appropriate number of Class A Common Stock or preferred stock purchase rights,
as the case may be (the "Rights"), if any, and the certificates representing the
Class A Common Stock issued upon such conversion shall bear such legends, if
any, in each case as may be provided by the terms of any shareholder rights
agreement adopted by the Company, as the same may be amended from time to time
(in each case, a "Rights Agreement"). Provided that such Rights Agreement
requires that each share of Class A Common Stock issued upon conversion of
Securities at any time prior to the distribution of separate certificates
representing the Rights be entitled to receive such Rights, then,
notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Article 11, there shall
                                                              --
not be any adjustment to the conversion privilege or Conversion Rate as a result
of the issuance of Rights, the distribution of separate certificates
representing the Rights, the exercise or redemption of such Rights in accordance
with any such Rights Agreement, or the termination or invalidation of such
Rights.

                                   ARTICLE 12

                                  SUBORDINATION

         SECTION 12.01. Agreement to Subordinate. The Debt evidenced by the
Securities is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner
provided in the Indenture, to the prior payment of all Senior Debt. The
subordination provisions are for the benefit of and enforceable by the holders
of Senior Debt.

         SECTION 12.02. Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy. Upon any payment
or distribution of the assets of the Company to creditors upon a total or
partial liquidation or a total or partial dissolution of the Company or in a
bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding
relating to the Company or its property:

                  (1) holders of Senior Debt are entitled to receive payment in
         full in cash of all Obligations in respect of Senior Debt, including
         all interest accrued or accruing on Senior Debt after the commencement
         of any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or similar case or
         proceeding at the contract rate (including, without limitation, any
         contract rate applicable upon default) specified in the relevant
         documentation, whether or not the claim for the interest is allowed as
         a claim in the case or proceeding with respect to the Senior Debt (only
         such payment

                                       75

<PAGE>

     constituting "payment in full") before Securityholders will be entitled to
     receive any payment of principal of or interest on the Securities; and

          (2)  until the Senior Debt is paid in full and payment has been made
     to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.06, any distribution to
     which Securityholders would be entitled but for these subordination
     provisions shall instead be made to holders of Senior Debt and the Trustee
     as their interests may appear.

     Section 12.03. Default on Designated Senior Debt. (a) The Company shall not
pay the principal of or interest on the Securities or make any deposit pursuant
to the provisions of Article 8 and shall not, pursuant to the provisions of
                             -
Article 3 or otherwise, repurchase, redeem or otherwise retire any Securities
(collectively, "pay the Securities") if at the time any Designated Senior Debt
has not been paid when due, whether at maturity, upon redemption or mandatory
repurchase, acceleration, or otherwise, and the default has not been cured or
waived.

     (b)  During the continuance of any other default with respect to any
Designated Senior Debt pursuant to which the maturity thereof may be accelerated
immediately without further notice (except any notice that may be required to
effect acceleration) or upon the expiration of a grace period, the Company may
not pay the Securities for a period (a "Payment Blockage Period")

          (1)  commencing upon the receipt by the Company and the Trustee of
     written notice of default from the holders of any Designated Senior Debt
     specifying an election to effect a Payment Blockage Period (a "Blockage
     Notice") and

          (2)  ending 179 days thereafter (or earlier if the Payment Blockage
     Period is terminated (i) by written notice to the Trustee and the Company
     from the Person that gave the Blockage Notice, (ii) by repayment in full of
     such Senior Debt or (iii) because the default giving rise to the Blockage
     Notice is no longer continuing).

Subject to the preceding paragraph, unless the holders of such Senior Debt have
accelerated the maturity of such Senior Debt, the Company may resume payments on
the Securities after the Payment Blockage Period.

     (c)  Not more than one Blockage Notice may be given in any consecutive
360-day period, irrespective of the number of defaults with respect to Senior
Debt during such period. No default which existed or was continuing on the date
of the commencement of any Payment Blockage Period with respect to the Senior
Debt whose holders initiated the Payment Blockage Period may be made the basis
of the commencement of a subsequent Payment Blockage Period

                                       76

<PAGE>

by the holders of such Senior Debt, whether or not within a period of 360
consecutive days, unless the default has been cured or waived for a period of
not less than 90 consecutive days.

         Section 12.04. When Distribution Must Be Paid Over. If a payment or
other distribution is made to Securityholders that because of these
subordination provisions should not have been made to them, the Securityholders
that receive the distribution shall hold it in trust for holders of Senior Debt
and pay it over to them as their interests may appear.

         Section 12.05. Subrogation. A distribution made under these
subordination provisions to holders of Senior Debt which otherwise would have
been made to Securityholders is not, as between the Company and Securityholders,
a payment by the Company on Senior Debt. After all Senior Debt is paid in full
and until the Securities are paid in full, Securityholders will be subrogated to
the rights of holders of Senior Debt to receive payments in respect of Senior
Debt, which, to the extent received by Securityholders, do not constitute, as
between the Company and the Securityholders, payments by the Company on the
Securities.

         Section 12.06. Relative Rights; Subordination Not to Prevent Events of
Default or Limit Right to Accelerate. These subordination provisions define the
relative rights of Securityholders and holders of Senior Debt and do not impair,
as between the Company and Securityholders, the obligation of the Company, which
is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and interest on the
Securities in accordance with their terms. The failure to make a payment
pursuant to the Securities by reason of these subordination provisions does not
prevent the occurrence of a Default, nor do these subordination provisions have
any effect on the right of the Securityholders or the Trustee to accelerate the
maturity of the Securities upon an Event of Default or prevent the Trustee or
any Securityholder from exercising its available remedies upon a Default,
subject to the rights of holders of Senior Debt to receive distributions
otherwise payable to Securityholders.

         Section 12.07. Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Company. No right
of any holder of Senior Debt to enforce the subordination of the Securities will
be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Company or by its failure to
comply with the Indenture.

         Section 12.08. Rights of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may continue to make
payments on the Securities and will not be charged with knowledge of the
existence of facts that would prohibit the making of any such payments unless,
not less than two Business Days prior to the date of such payment, the Trustee
receives notice satisfactory to it from the Company or a holder of Senior Debt
that payments may not be made under this Article.

                                       77

<PAGE>

          (b)  The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may hold
Senior Debt with the same rights, including rights under this Article, it would
have if it were not Trustee. Nothing in this Article applies to claims of, or
payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.06.
                                                      ----

         Section 12.09. Distributions and Notices to, and Notices and Consents
by, Representatives of Holders of Senior Debt. Whenever a distribution is to be
made or a notice given to holders of Senior Debt, the distribution may be made
and the notice given to their representative (if any). If there is a
representative acting for the holders of any Senior Debt pursuant to the
agreements governing such Senior Debt, notices or consents under the Indenture
from holders of such Senior Debt may be given only by their representative.

         Section 12.10. Trustee Entitled to Rely. For the purpose of
ascertaining the outstanding amount of Senior Debt, the holders thereof, and all
other information relevant to making any payment or distribution to holders of
Senior Debt pursuant to this Article, the Trustee and the Securityholders are
entitled to rely upon an order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in
which any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 12.02 are pending, a
                                                           -----
certificate of the liquidating trustee or other Person making a payment or
distribution to the Trustee or to the Securityholders, or information provided
by the holders of Senior Debt. The Trustee may defer any payment or distribution
pending receipt of evidence or instructions satisfactory to it or a judicial
determination regarding the rights of parties to receive the payment or
distribution.

         Section 12.11. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. Each Securityholder
by accepting a Security authorizes and directs the Trustee on behalf of the
Securityholder to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to
acknowledge or effectuate the subordination between the Securityholders and the
holders of Senior Debt as provided in this Article and appoints the Trustee as
attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes, including for the purpose of
filing a claim in any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 12.02.
                                                                       -----

         Section 12.12. Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Debt. The
Trustee will not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior
Debt and will not be liable to any such holders if it mistakenly pays over or
distributes to Securityholders, or to the Company or any other Person, any money
or assets to which holders of Senior Debt are entitled by virtue of this
Article.

         Section 12.13. Reliance by Holder of Senior Debt on Subordination
Provisions; No Waiver. (a) Each Securityholder by accepting a Security
acknowledges and agrees that these subordination provisions are, and are
intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to each holder of Senior Debt,
whether created or acquired before or after the issuance of the Securities, to
acquire or to hold such Senior Debt, and each holder of Senior Debt will be
deemed conclusively to have relied on these subordination provisions in
acquiring and holding such Senior Debt.

                                       78

<PAGE>

     (b)  The holders of Senior Debt may, at any time and from time to time,
without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Securityholders, without
incurring any liability or responsibility to the Securityholders, and without
impairing the rights of holders of Senior Debt under these subordination
provisions, do any of the following:

          (1)  change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time
     of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior Debt or any instrument evidencing
     the same or any agreement under which Senior Debt is outstanding or
     secured;

          (2)  sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property
     pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Debt;

          (3)  release any Person liable in any manner for the payment of Senior
     Debt; or

          (4)  exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the
     Company and any other Person.

         This Security shall not bear periodic interest, except as specified in
this paragraph and in paragraphs 10 and 11 hereof. The Company shall pay cash

due, at the rate borne by the Securities plus 1% per annum, and it shall pay
interest in cash on overdue installments of cash interest at the same rate to
the extent lawful. All such overdue cash interest shall be payable on demand.

Principal Amount at Maturity of the Security), in the period during which a
Security remains outstanding, together with regular cash interest, shall accrue
at 0.875% per annum, on a semiannual bond equivalent basis using a 360-day year
composed of twelve 30-day months, from the Issue Date of this Security.

on this Security and in respect of Redemption Prices, Purchase Prices and
Fundamental Change Purchase Prices to Holders who surrender Securities to a
Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Securities. The Company
will pay cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment
is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. However, the Company
may make such cash payments by check payable in such money. Any payment required
to be made on any day that is not a Business Day will be made on the next
succeeding Business Day.

3.       Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Registrar.

         Initially, First Union National Bank, a national banking association

successors in trust, the "Trustee"), will act as Paying Agent, Conversion Agent
and Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Conversion
Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice, other than notice to the
Trustee except that the Company will maintain at least one Paying Agent in the
State of New York, City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, which shall initially
be an office or agency of the Trustee. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries or
any of their Affiliates may act as Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Registrar or
co-registrar.

4.       Indenture.

                                     A-1-4

<PAGE>

         The Company issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as of
January 28, 2002 (the "Indenture"), between the Company and the Trustee. The
terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made
part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as in
effect from time to time (the "TIA"). Capitalized terms used herein and not
defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The
Securities are subject to all such terms, and Securityholders are referred to
the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of those terms.

         The Securities are general unsecured obligations of the Company limited
to $390,000,000 aggregate Principal Amount at Maturity (subject to Section 2.07
of the Indenture). The Indenture does not limit other indebtedness of the
Company, secured or unsecured.

5.       Redemption at the Option of the Company.

         No sinking fund is provided for the Securities. The Securities are
redeemable as a whole, or from time to time in part, at any time at the option
of the Company at the Redemption Prices set forth below, provided that the
Securities are not redeemable prior to January 28, 2007.

         The table below shows Redemption Prices of a Security per $1,000
Principal Amount at Maturity on the dates shown below and at Stated Maturity,
which prices reflect accrued Original Issue Discount calculated to each such
date. The Redemption Price of a Security redeemed between such dates shall

accrued since the next preceding date in the table.

28, 2007.

6.       Purchase By the Company at the Option of the Holder.

         Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company shall
become obligated to purchase, at the option of the Holder, the Securities held
by such Holder on the following Purchase Dates and at the following Purchase
Prices per $1,000 Principal Amount at Maturity, upon delivery of a Purchase
Notice containing the information set forth in the Indenture, at any time from
the opening of business on the date that is 30 Business Days prior to such
Purchase Date until the close of-business on such Purchase Date and upon
delivery of the Securities to the Paying Agent by the Holder as set forth in the
Indenture.

         Purchase Date                      Purchase Price
         -------------                      --------------

         January 28, 2005                   $862.07

         January 28, 2007                   $877.25

         January 28, 2012                   $916.40

         The Purchase Price (equal to the Issue Price plus accrued Original
Issue Discount and accrued and unpaid cash interest to the Purchase Date) may be
paid, at the option of the Company, in cash or shares of Class A Common Stock or
any combination thereof, except that the Purchase Price may only be paid in cash
for any purchase of Securities pursuant to the January 28, 2005 Purchase Date.

         If prior to a Purchase Date this Security has been converted to a Cash
Pay Security following the occurrence of a Tax Event, the Purchase Price will be
equal to the Restated Principal Amount plus accrued and unpaid interest from the
date of conversion to, but excluding, the Purchase Date.

                                     A-1-6

<PAGE>

         At the option of the Holder and subject to the terms and conditions of
the Indenture, the Company shall become obligated to purchase all or a portion
of the Securities held by such Holder 35 Business Days after the occurrence of a
Fundamental Change of the Company occurring on or prior to January 28, 2007 for
a Fundamental Change Purchase Price equal to the Issue Price plus accrued
Original Issue Discount and accrued and unpaid cash interest to the Fundamental
Change Purchase Date, which Fundamental Change Purchase Price may be paid, at
the option of the Company, in cash or shares of Class A Common Stock or any
combination thereof. If prior to a Fundamental Change Purchase Date this
Security has been converted to a Cash Pay Security following the occurrence of a
Tax Event, the Fundamental Change Purchase Price shall be equal to the Restated
Principal Amount plus accrued and unpaid interest from the date of conversion to
the Fundamental Change Purchase Date.

         Holders have the right to withdraw any Purchase Notice or Fundamental
Change Purchase Notice, as the case may be, by delivering to the Paying Agent a
written notice of withdrawal in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.

         If cash (and/or securities if permitted under the Indenture) sufficient
to pay the Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price, as the case may
be, of all Securities or portions thereof to be purchased as of the Purchase
Date or the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, as the case may be, is deposited
with the Paying Agent on the Business Day following the Purchase Date or the
Fundamental Change Purchase Date, as the case may be, such Securities will cease
to be outstanding and Original Issue Discount and cash interest shall cease to
accrue on such Securities (or portions thereof) and will be deemed paid
immediately after such Purchase Date or Fundamental Change Purchase Date, as the
case may be, whether or not such Securities have been delivered to the Paying
Agent, and the Holder thereof shall have no other rights as such (other than the
right to receive the Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price, as the
case may be, upon surrender of such Security).

7.       Notice of Redemption.

         Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than
60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed
at the Holder's registered address. If money sufficient to pay the Redemption
Price of all Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the Redemption
Date is deposited with the Paying Agent prior to or on the Redemption Date,
immediately after such Redemption Date Original Issue Discount ceases to accrue
on such Securities or portions thereof. Securities in denominations larger than
$1,000 of Principal Amount at Maturity may be redeemed in part but only in
integral multiples of $1,000 of Principal Amount at Maturity.

8.       Conversion.

                                     A-1-7

<PAGE>

     Subject to the procedures set forth in Section 11.02 of the Indenture, a
Holder of a Security may convert it into Class A Common Stock of the Company at
any time before the close of business on January 28, 2022 if at least one of the
following conditions is satisfied on the Conversion Date:

     (a) the average of the Sale Prices for the Class A Common Stock for 20 of
the 30 Trading Days immediately prior to the Conversion Date is equal to or
greater than 120% of the Accreted Value on the Conversion Date, divided by the
Conversion Rate;

     (b) (i) the credit ratings assigned to the Securities by Moody's and S&P
are Ba1 and BB+, respectively, or lower, or (ii) both Moody's and S&P have
ceased to rate the Securities, or (iii) both Moody's and S&P have suspended
rating of the Securities;

     (c) the Securities have been called for redemption by the Company, at any
time prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Redemption
Date;

     (d) the Company becomes a party to a consolidation, merger or binding share
exchange pursuant to which the Class A Common Stock would be converted into cash
or property (other than securities), in which case a Holder may surrender
Securities for conversion at any time from and after the date which is 15 days
prior to the anticipated effective date for the transaction until 15 days after
the actual effective date of such transaction; or

     (e) the Company elects to (i) distribute to all Holders of Class A Common
Stock assets, debt securities or rights to purchase securities of the Company,
which distribution has a per share value as determined by the Company's Board of
Directors exceeding 15% of the Sale Price of the Class A Common Stock on the day
preceding the declaration date for such distribution or (ii) distribute to all
Holders of Class A Common Stock rights entitling them to purchase, for a period
expiring within 60 days after the date of such distribution, Class A Common
Stock at less than the Sale Price at the time of such distribution. In the case
of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Company must notify the Holders of
Securities at least 20 days prior to the ex-dividend date for such distribution.
Once the Company has given such notice, Holders may surrender their Securities
for conversion at any time thereafter until the earlier of the close of business
on the Business Day prior to the ex-dividend date or the Company's announcement
that such distribution will not take place.

     If the Security is called for redemption, the Holder may convert it at any
time before the close of business on the Redemption Date. A Security in respect
of which a Holder has delivered a Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase
Notice exercising the option of such Holder to require the Company to purchase
such Security may be converted only if such notice of exercise is withdrawn in
accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

                                      A-1-8

<PAGE>

     The initial Conversion Rate is 32.1644 shares of Class A Common Stock per
$1,000 Principal Amount at Maturity, subject to adjustment in certain events
described in the Indenture. The Company will deliver cash or a check in lieu of
any fractional share of Class A Common Stock.

     In the event the Company exercises its option pursuant to Section 10.01 of
the Indenture to have interest in lieu of Original Issue Discount accrue on the
Security following a Tax Event, the Holder will be entitled on conversion to
receive the same number of shares of Class A Common Stock such Holder would have
received if the Company had not exercised such option. In any event, whether or
not the Company exercises such option, Securities surrendered for conversion
during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date next
preceding any Interest Payment Date to the opening of business of such Interest
Payment Date (except Securities to be redeemed on a date within such period or
on the next Interest Payment Date) must be accompanied by payment of an amount
equal to the interest thereon that the registered Holder is to receive. Except
where Securities surrendered for conversion must be accompanied by payment as
described above, no interest on converted Securities will be payable by the
Company on any Interest Payment Date subsequent to the date of conversion.

     To convert a Security, a Holder must (1) complete and manually sign the
conversion notice below (or complete and manually sign a facsimile of such
notice) and deliver such notice to the Conversion Agent, (2) surrender the
Security to the Conversion Agent, (3) furnish appropriate endorsements and
transfer documents if required by the Conversion Agent, the Company or the
Trustee and (4) pay any transfer or similar tax, if required.

     A Holder may convert a portion of a Security if the Principal Amount at
Maturity of such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. No payment
or adjustment will be made for dividends on the Class A Common Stock except as
provided in the Indenture. On conversion of a Security, that portion of accrued
Original Issue Discount (or interest if the Company has exercised its option
provided for in paragraph 11 hereof) and (except as provided below) accrued cash
interest attributable to the period from the Issue Date (or, if the Company has
exercised the option referred to in paragraph 11 hereof, the later of (x) the
date of such exercise and (y) the date on which interest was last paid) or the
date on which interest was last paid through the Conversion Date with respect to
the converted Security shall not be cancelled, extinguished or forfeited, but
rather shall be deemed to be paid in full to the Holder thereof through the
delivery of the Class A Common Stock (together with the cash payment, if any, in
lieu of fractional shares) in exchange for the Security being converted pursuant
to the terms hereof; and the fair market value of such shares of Class A Common
Stock (together with any such cash payment in lieu of fractional shares) shall
be treated as issued, to the extent thereof, first in exchange for Original
Issue Discount (or interest, if the Company has exercised its option provided
for in paragraph 11 hereof) and cash interest accrued through the Conversion
Date, and the balance, if

                                     A-1-9

<PAGE>

any, of such fair market value of such Common Stock (and any such cash payment)
shall be treated as issued in exchange for the Issue Price of the Security being
converted pursuant to the provisions hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
accrued but unpaid interest will be payable upon conversion of Securities made
concurrently with or after acceleration of Securities following an Event of
Default.

         The Conversion Rate is subject to adjustment at such times as specified
in Sections 11.06 through 11.10 of the Indenture.

         If the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger or binding share
exchange or a transfer of all or substantially all of its assets, or upon
certain distributions described in the Indenture, the right to convert a
Security into Class A Common Stock may be changed into a right to convert it
into securities, cash or other assets of the Company or another person.

9.       Conversion Arrangement on Call for Redemption.

         Any Securities called for redemption, unless surrendered for conversion
before the close of business on the Redemption Date, may be deemed to be
purchased from the Holders of such Securities at an amount not less than the
Redemption Price, by one or more investment bankers or other purchasers who may
agree with the Company to purchase such Securities from the Holders, to convert
them into Class A Common Stock of the Company and to make payment for such
Securities to the Trustee in trust for such Holders.

10.      Contingent Interest

         Subject to the accrual and record date provisions specified in this
paragraph 10, the Company shall pay contingent interest to the Holders during
any six-month period (a "Contingent Interest Period") from January 28 to July 27
and from July 28 to January 27, commencing with the six-month period beginning
         January 28, 2007, if the average Security Price for the Five-Day Period
with respect to such Contingent Interest Period equals 120% or more of the
Accreted Value thereof on the trading day immediately preceding the first day of
the relevant Contingent Interest Period.

         The amount of contingent interest payable per $1,000 Principal Amount
at Final Maturity hereof in respect of any Contingent Interest Period shall
equal the greater of (x) Cash Dividends paid by the Company per share of Class A
Common Stock during that Contingent Interest Period multiplied by the number of
shares of Class A Common Stock into which $1,000 Principal Amount at Final
Maturity hereof is convertible pursuant to paragraph 8 hereof as of the accrual
date for such contingent interest or (y) 0.125% of the average Security Price
for the Five-Day Period with respect to such Contingent Interest Period.

                                     A-1-10

<PAGE>

         Contingent interest, if any, will accrue and be payable to Holders as
of the 15th day preceding the last day of the relevant Contingent Interest
Period (a "Contingent Interest Record Date"). Such payments shall be paid on the
last day of the relevant Contingent Interest Period.

         Contingent interest calculates pursuant to this paragraph 10 shall be
paid on the last day of the relevant Contingent Interest Period (a "Contingent
Interest Payment Date").

         Original Issue Discount will continue to accrue at 0.875% per annum
whether or not contingent interest is paid.

         "Five-Day Period" means, with respect to any Contingent Interest
Period, the five trading days ending on (a) the second trading day immediately
preceding the first day of such Contingent Interest Period, or (b) if the
Company declares a dividend for which the record date is prior to, but the
payment date is within such Contingent Interest Period, the second trading day
immediately preceding such record date.

         "Cash Dividends" means all cash dividends on the Company's Class A
Common Stock (whether regular, periodic, extraordinary, special, nonrecurring or
otherwise) as declared by the Company's Board of Directors.

         "Security Price" means, as of any date of determination, the average of
the secondary market bid quotations per $1,000 original Principal Amount at
Final Maturity obtained by the Bid Agent for $5,000,000 original Principal
Amount at Final Maturity of Securities at approximately 4:00 p.m. (New York City
time) on such determination date from three recognized securities dealers in The
City of New York (none of which shall be an Affiliate of the Company) selected
by the Company; provided, however, if (a) at least three such bids are not
obtained by the Bid Agent or (b) in the Company's reasonable judgment, the bid
quotations are not indicative of the secondary market value of the Securities as
of such determination date, then the Security Price for such determination date
shall equal (i) the Conversion Rate in effect as of such determination date
multiplied by (ii) the average Sale Price for the five trading days ending on
such determination date, appropriately adjusted to take into account the
occurrence, during the period commencing on the first of such trading days
during such five trading day period and ending on such determination date, of
any event described in Section 11.06, 11.07 or 11.08 (subject to the conditions
set forth in Sections 11.09 and 11.10) of the Indenture.

         Upon determination that Holders will be entitled to receive contingent
interest which may become payable during a Contingent Interest Period, on or
prior to the first day of such Contingent Interest Period, the Company shall
issue a press release and publish such information on its web site at
www.hma-corp.com or such other media as the Company shall determine.

11.  Tax Event

     (a) From and after (i) the date (the "Tax Event Date") of the occurrence of
a Tax Event and (ii) the date the Company exercises such option, whichever is
later (the "Option Exercise Date"), at the option of the Company, interest in
lieu of future Original Issue Discount and regular cash interest shall accrue at
the rate of 0.875% per annum on a principal amount per Security (the "Restated
Principal Amount") equal to the Issue Price plus Original Issue Discount accrued
through the Option Exercise Date and shall be payable semiannually on January 28
and July 28 of each year (each an "Interest Payment Date") to Holders of record
at the close of business on January 5 or July 5 (each a "Regular Record Date'")
immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date. Interest will be computed on
the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and will accrue
from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has
been paid, from the Option Exercise Date.

     (b) Cash interest on any Security that is payable, and is punctually paid
or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the person
in whose name that Security is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such cash interest at the office or agency of the
Company maintained for such purpose. Each installment of cash interest on any
Security shall be paid in same-day funds by transfer to an account maintained by
the payee located inside the United States.

     (c) Except as otherwise specified with respect to the Securities, any
Defaulted Interest on any Security shall forthwith cease to be payable to the
registered Holder thereof on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of
having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company
as provided for in Section 10.02(b) of the Indenture.
                           --------

12.  Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

     The Securities are in fully registered form, without coupons, in
denominations of $1,000 of Principal Amount at Maturity and integral multiples
of $1,000. A Holder may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the
Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish
appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees
required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not transfer
or exchange any Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of a
Security to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed)
or any Securities in respect of which a Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change
Purchase Notice has been given and not withdrawn (except, in the case of a
Security to be purchased in part, the portion of the Security not to be
purchased) or any Securities for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a
notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed.

13.  Persons Deemed Owners.

                                     A-1-12

<PAGE>

         The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the owner of
this Security for all purposes.

14.      Unclaimed Money or Securities.

         The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return to the Company upon
written request any money or securities held by them for the payment of any
amount with respect to the Securities that remains unclaimed for two years,
subject to applicable unclaimed property law. After return to the Company,
Holders entitled to the money or securities must look to the Company for payment
as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates
another person.

15.      Amendment; Waiver.

         Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the
Indenture or the Securities may be amended with the written consent of the
Holders of at least a majority in aggregate Principal Amount at Maturity of the
Securities at the time outstanding and (ii) certain Defaults may be waived with
the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount
at Maturity of the Securities at the time outstanding. Subject to certain
exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any
Securityholder, the Company and the Trustee may amend the Indenture or the
Securities to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, or to
comply with Article 5 or Section 11.14 of the Indenture, to provide for
                    -            -----
uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities
or to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any
Securityholder, or to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with
the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA.

16.      Defaults and Remedies.

         Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) default in the
payment of any cash interest, contingent interest or additional amount owing
under the Registration Rights Agreement upon any Security when such interest
becomes due and payable, and such default in payment of interest shall continue
for 30 days; (ii) default in the payment of the Principal Amount at Maturity
(or, if the Securities have been converted to Cash Pay Securities following a
Tax Event pursuant to Article 10, the Restated Principal Amount), Issue Price
                              --
plus accrued Original Issue Discount, Redemption Price, Purchase Price or
Fundamental Change Purchase Price on any Security when the same becomes due and
payable at its Stated Maturity, upon redemption, upon declaration, when due for
purchase by the Company or otherwise; (iii) failure by the Company to deliver
shares of Class A Common Stock (together with cash in lieu of fractional shares)
when such Class A Common Stock (or cash in lieu of fractional shares) is
required to be delivered upon conversion of a Security and such failure
continues for 10 days; (iv) failure by the Company to comply with any of its
agreements in the Securities or the Indenture (other than those referred to in
clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above)

                                     A-1-13

<PAGE>

and such failure continues for 30 days after receipt by the Company of a Notice
of Default; (v) there shall be (a) a default under any bond, debenture, note or
other evidence of indebtedness for money borrowed or under any mortgage,
indenture or other instrument under which there may be issued or by which there
may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness by the Company or any Significant
Subsidiary or by any Subsidiaries of the Company which in the aggregate would
constitute a Significant Subsidiary or under any guarantee of payment of
Indebtedness by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or by any Subsidiaries
of the Company which in the aggregate would constitute a Significant Subsidiary,
whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists or shall hereafter be created,
and the effect of such default is to cause such Indebtedness (or Indebtedness so
guaranteed) to become due prior to its stated maturity or (b) a failure to pay
at the stated maturity of any such Indebtedness (or Indebtedness so guaranteed)
any amounts then due and owing thereunder; provided, however, that no Default
under this clause (v) shall exist if all such defaults and failures to pay
relate to Indebtedness (including Indebtedness so guaranteed) with an aggregate
principal amount of not more than $25,000,000 at the time outstanding; (vi)
final judgments for the payment of money which in the aggregate exceed
$25,000,000 at the time outstanding shall be rendered against the Company or any
Significant Subsidiary or any Subsidiaries of the Company which in the aggregate
would constitute a Significant Subsidiary by a court of competent jurisdiction
and shall remain undischarged for a period (during which execution shall not be
effectively stayed) of 60 days after such judgment becomes final and
nonappealable; or (vii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization with respect to the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or any
Subsidiaries of the Company which in the aggregate would constitute a
Significant Subsidiary. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Principal Amount at
Maturity of the Securities at the time outstanding, may declare all the
Securities to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy or
insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Securities becoming
due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

         Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except
as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or
the Securities unless it receives reasonable indemnity or security. Subject to
certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount at
Maturity of the Securities at the time outstanding may direct the Trustee in its
exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Securityholders
notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of amounts
specified in clause (i) or (ii) above) if it determines that withholding notice
is in their interests.

17.      Trustee Dealings with the Company.

         Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under
the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or
pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed
to

                                     A-1-14

<PAGE>

it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company
or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

18.      No Recourse Against Others.

         A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company
shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the
Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by
reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each
Securityholder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release
are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

19.      Authentication.
This Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee
manually signs the Trustee's Certificate of Authentication on the other side of
this Security.

20.      Abbreviations.

         Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Securityholder or

entireties), JT TEN (joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants
