State of Delaware (herein called the “Company”), and THE BANK OF NEW YORK, a New

known as The Chase Manhattan Bank)), as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”),
under the Indenture dated as of October 1, 2001 (hereinafter called the
“Original Indenture”), this Supplemental Indenture No. 9 being supplemental
thereto.  The Original Indenture and any and all indentures and
instruments supplemental thereto are hereinafter sometimes collectively called
the “Indenture.”

     

    Recitals
of the Company

     

    The
Original Indenture was authorized, executed and delivered by the Company to
provide for the issuance by the Company from time to time of its Securities
(such term and all other capitalized terms used herein without definition having
the meanings assigned to them in the Original Indenture), to be issued in one or
more series as contemplated therein.

     

    As
contemplated by Sections 301 and 1201(f) of the Original Indenture, the Company
wishes to establish a series of Securities to be designated “Senior Notes, 6.50%
Series due 2018” to be limited in aggregate principal amount (except as
contemplated in Section 301(b) and the last paragraph of Section 301 of the
Original Indenture) to $400,000,000 (such series of Securities to be hereinafter
sometimes called “Series No. 8”).

     

    The
Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Supplemental
Indenture No. 9 to establish the Securities of Series No. 8 and has duly
authorized the issuance of such Securities.  All acts necessary to
make this Supplemental Indenture No. 9 a valid agreement of the Company and to
make the Securities of Series No. 8 valid obligations of the Company have been
performed.

     

    NOW, THEREFORE, THIS SUPPLEMENTAL
INDENTURE NO. 9 WITNESSETH:

     

    For and
in consideration of the premises and of the purchase of the Securities by the
Holders thereof, it is mutually covenanted and agreed, for the equal and
proportionate benefit of all Holders of the Securities of Series No. 8 as
follows:

     

    ARTICLE
ONE

     

    Eighth
Series of Securities

     

    Section
1. There is
hereby created a series of Securities designated “Senior Notes, 6.50% Series due
2018” and limited in aggregate principal amount (except as contemplated in
Section 301(b) and the last paragraph of Section 301 of the Original Indenture)
to $400,000,000.  The form and terms of the Securities of Series No. 8
shall be established in an Officer’s Certificate of the Company, as contemplated
by Section 301 of the Original Indenture.

     

    Section
2. The
Company hereby agrees that, if the Company shall make any deposit of money
and/or Eligible Obligations with respect to any Securities of Series No. 8, or
any portion of the principal amount thereof, as contemplated by Section 701 of
the Indenture, the Company shall not deliver an Officer’s Certificate described
in clause (z) in the first paragraph of said Section 701 unless the Company
shall also deliver to the Trustee, together with such Officer’s Certificate,
either:

     

    (A)  an
instrument wherein the Company, notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge
of its indebtedness in respect of such Securities, shall assume the obligation
(which shall be absolute and unconditional) to irrevocably deposit with the
Trustee or Paying Agent such additional sums of money, if any, or additional
Eligible Obligations (meeting the requirements of Section 701), if any, or any
combination thereof, at such time or times, as shall be necessary, together with
the money and/or Eligible Obligations theretofore so deposited, to pay when due
the principal of and premium, if any, and interest due and to become due on such
Securities or portions thereof, all in accordance with and subject to the
provisions of said Section 701; provided, however, that such
instrument may state that the obligation of the Company to make additional
deposits as aforesaid shall arise only upon the delivery to the Company by the
Trustee of a notice asserting the deficiency and showing the calculation thereof
and shall continue only until the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
opinion of an independent public accountant of nationally recognized standing to
the effect that no such deficiency exists and showing the calculation of the
sufficiency of the deposits then held by the Trustee; or

     

    (B)  an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Securities, or
portions of the principal amount thereof, will not recognize income, gain or
loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the
satisfaction and discharge of the Company’s indebtedness in respect thereof and
will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts, at the
same times and in the same manner as if such satisfaction and discharge had not
been effected.

     

    Section
3. The
Company agrees that for so long as any Securities of Series No. 8, shall remain
Outstanding, without consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of such series, the Company shall not create, incur
or assume any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any property of the
Company, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in order to secure any Debt of
the Company.  The foregoing agreement shall not restrict the ability
of Subsidiaries or Affiliates of the Company to create, incur or assume any Lien
upon their properties or assets.

     

    Section
4. The
provisions of Section 3 above shall not prohibit the creation, issuance,
incurrence or assumption of any Lien if either:

     

    (A)  the
Company shall make effective provision whereby all Securities of Series No. 8
then Outstanding shall be secured equally and ratably with all other Debt then
outstanding under such Lien; or

     

    (B)  the
Company shall deliver to the Trustee bonds, notes or other evidences of
indebtedness secured by the Lien which secures such Debt (hereinafter called
“Secured Obligations”) (I) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
aggregate principal amount of the Securities of Series No. 8 then Outstanding,
(II) maturing (or being subject to mandatory redemption) on such dates and in
such principal amounts that, at each Stated Maturity of the Outstanding
Securities of Series No. 8, there shall mature (or be redeemed) Secured
Obligations equal in principal amount to such Securities then to mature and
(III) containing, in addition to any mandatory redemption provisions applicable
to all Secured Obligations outstanding under such Lien and any mandatory
redemption provisions contained therein pursuant to clause (II) above, mandatory
redemption provisions correlative to the provisions, if any, for the mandatory
redemption (pursuant to a sinking fund or otherwise) of the Securities of Series
No. 8 or for the redemption thereof at the option of the Holder, as well as a
provision for mandatory redemption upon an acceleration of the maturity of all
Outstanding Securities of Series No. 8 following an Event of Default (such
mandatory redemption to be rescinded upon the rescission of such acceleration);
it being expressly understood that such Secured Obligations (X) may, but need
not, bear interest, (Y) may, but need not, contain provisions for the redemption
thereof at the option of the issuer, any such redemption to be made at a
redemption price or prices not less than the principal amount thereof and (Z)
shall be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of all Securities of
Series No. 8 from time to time Outstanding subject to such terms and conditions
relating to surrender to the Company, transfer restrictions, voting, application
of payments of principal and interest and other matters as shall be set forth in
an indenture supplemental hereto specifically providing for the delivery to the
Trustee of such Secured Obligations.

     

    Section
5. If the
Company shall elect either of the alternatives described in Section 4 above, the
Company shall deliver to the Trustee:

     

    (A)  an
indenture supplemental to the Original Indenture (I) together with any
appropriate inter-creditor arrangements, whereby such Securities of Series No. 8
then Outstanding shall be secured by the Lien referred to in Section 4 above
equally and ratably with all other indebtedness secured by such Lien or (II)
providing for the delivery to the Trustee of Secured Obligations;

     

    (B)  an
Officer’s Certificate (I) stating that, to the knowledge of the signer, (1) no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (2) no event has occurred
and is continuing which entitles the secured party under such Lien to accelerate
the maturity of the indebtedness outstanding thereunder and (II) stating the
aggregate principal amount of indebtedness issuable, and then proposed to be
issued, under and secured by such Lien; and

     

    (C)  an
Opinion of Counsel (I) if the Securities of Series No. 8 then Outstanding are to
be secured by such Lien, to the effect that all such Securities then Outstanding
are entitled to the benefit of such Lien equally and ratably with all other
indebtedness outstanding under such Lien or (II) if Secured Obligations are to
be delivered to the Trustee, to the effect that such Secured Obligations have
been duly issued under such Lien and constitute valid obligations, entitled to
the benefit of such Lien equally and ratably with all other indebtedness then
outstanding under such Lien.

     

    Section
6. The
Company agrees that for so long as any Securities of Series No. 8 shall remain
Outstanding, and except for the sale of the properties and assets of the Company
substantially as an entirety pursuant to Article Eleven of the Original
Indenture, and other than assets required to be sold to conform with
governmental requirements, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of
its Subsidiaries to, consummate any Asset Sale, if the aggregate net book value
of all such Asset Sales consummated during the four calendar quarters
immediately preceding any date of determination would exceed 15% of the
consolidated assets of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the
beginning of the Company’s most recently ended full fiscal quarter; provided, however, that any
such Asset Sale will be disregarded for purposes of the 15% limitation specified
above (i) if any such Asset Sale is in the ordinary course of business, (ii) to
the extent that such assets are worn out or are no longer useful or necessary in
connection with the operation of the business of the Company or its
Subsidiaries, (iii) to the extent such assets are being transferred to a
wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company, (iv) to the extent any such assets
subject to any such Asset Sale involve transfers of assets of or equity
interests in connection with (a) the formation of any joint venture between the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any other entity, or (b) any project
development and acquisition activities, and (v) if the proceeds thereof (a) are,
within 12 months of such Asset Sale, invested or reinvested by the Company or
any Subsidiary in a Permitted Business, (b) are used by the Company or a
Subsidiary to repay Debt of the Company or such Subsidiary, or (c) are retained
by the Company or its Subsidiaries. Additionally, if prior to any Asset Sale
that otherwise would cause the 15% limitation to be exceeded, Moody’s and
S&P confirm the then current long term debt rating of such Securities of
Series No. 8 after giving effect to such Asset Sale, such Asset Sale shall also
be disregarded for purposes of the foregoing limitations.

     

    Section
7. So long
as any Securities of Series No. 8 shall remain Outstanding, the following event
shall be an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of Series No.
8:  the occurrence of a matured event of default, as defined in any
instrument of the Company under which there may be issued or evidenced any Debt
of the Company, that has resulted in the acceleration of such Debt in excess of
$25,000,000, or any default in payment of Debt in excess of $25,000,000 at final
maturity, after the expiration of any applicable grace or cure periods; provided, however, that the
waiver or cure of any such default under any such instrument or Debt shall
constitute a waiver and cure of the corresponding Event of Default under the
Indenture and the rescission and annulment of the consequences thereof shall
constitute a rescission and annulment of the corresponding consequences under
the Indenture.

     

    Section
8. So long
as any Securities of Series No. 8 shall remain Outstanding, for purposes of
Section 1101(a) of the Original Indenture, “corporation” shall be deemed to
refer to a corporation or limited liability company.  For all other
purposes, the definition of “corporation” in Section 101 of the Original
Indenture shall govern.
