     declare the principal of all the Securities to be due and payable
     immediately.

     Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as
     provided in the Indenture.  The Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory

     Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power.

     and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise
     deal with those persons, as if it were not Trustee.
