Trustee,  and,  where it is hereby  expressly  required,  to the  Company.  Such
instrument  or  instruments  (and the  action  embodied  therein  and  evidenced
thereby) are herein  sometimes  referred to as the "Act" of the Holders  signing

the purpose of determining the Securityholders entitled to give their consent or
take any other  action  described  above or  required or  permitted  to be taken
pursuant to this  Indenture.  If a record date is fixed,  those Persons who were
Securityholders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only
those  Persons,  shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent
previously  given or take any such action,  whether or not such Persons continue
to be  Holders  after  such  record  date.  No such  consent  shall  be valid or
effective for more than 120 days after such record date.

SECTION 105.  Notices, etc., to Trustee and Company.

provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon,  given or furnished to,
or filed with,

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

         (2) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for

     Company for this purpose.

SECTION 106.  Notices to Holders; Waiver.

     Where this  Indenture  provides  for  notice to Holders of any event,  such
notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly  provided)
if in writing and mailed,  first-class  postage prepaid, to each Holder affected
by such event, at his address as it appears on the Security Register,  not later
than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the
giving of such  notice.  In any case  where  notice to Holders is given by mail,
neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed,
to any  particular  Holder  shall  affect the  sufficiency  of such  notice with
respect  to other  Holders.  Where  this  Indenture  provides  for notice in any
manner,  such notice may be waived in writing by the Person  entitled to receive
such  notice,  either  before or after the event,  and such waiver  shall be the

Exhibit 4.1                            10
<PAGE>

equivalent of such notice.  Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the
Trustee,  but such filing shall not be a condition  precedent to the validity of
any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

     In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of
any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such
notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall  constitute
a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

provision which is required or deemed to be included in this Indenture by any of

herein shall control.

its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

SECTION 110.  Separability Clause.

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

SECTION 111.  Benefits of Indenture.

     Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities,  express or implied,  shall
give  to any  Person,  other  than  the  parties  hereto  and  their  successors
hereunder,  any Paying Agent and the Holders of  Securities,  any benefit or any
legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

SECTION 112.  Governing Law.

     This  Indenture  shall be construed in accordance  with and governed by the

     In any case where any Interest  Payment Date, any  Redemption  Date, or the

proposed to be paid,  shall not be a Business  Day,  then  (notwithstanding  any
other  provision  of this  Indenture)  payment of  interest  or  principal  (and
premium,  if any)  need  not be made on such  date,  but may be made on the next
succeeding  Business  Day with  the  same  force  and  effect  as if made on the
Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, at the Stated Maturity, or on the date
on which the Defaulted  Interest is proposed to be paid,  and no interest  shall
accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date

SECTION 114.  Act of Holders when Securities are Denominated in Different
Currencies.

     Whenever  any action or Act is to be taken  hereunder by the Holders of two
or more Series or Issues of  Securities  denominated  in  different  currencies,
then, for the purposes of determining the principal amount of Securities held by
such Holders, the aggregate principal amount of the Securities  denominated in a
currency  other than United States  dollars shall be deemed to be that amount of
United States  dollars that could be obtained for such  principal  amount on the
basis of the spot  rate of  exchange  for such  currency  as  determined  by the
Company or by an authorized  exchange rate agent and evidenced to the Trustee by
an Officers'  Certificate as of the date the taking of such action or Act by the
Holders of the  requisite  percentage in principal  amount of the  Securities is
evidenced to the Trustee. An exchange rate agent may be authorized in advance or
from time to time by the Company,  and may be the Trustee or its Affiliate.  Any
such  determination  by the Company or by any such  exchange rate agent shall be
conclusive  and binding on all Holders and the Trustee,  and neither the Company
nor such  exchange  rate agent  shall be liable  therefor  in the absence of bad
faith.

SECTION 115.  Monies of Different Currencies to be Segregated.

     The Trustee shall segregate monies, funds, and accounts held by the Trustee
hereunder  in one  currency  from any  monies,  funds or  accounts  in any other
currencies,  notwithstanding  any provision  herein which would otherwise permit
the Trustee to commingle such amounts.

SECTION 116.  Payment to be in Proper Currency.

     Each reference in any Security,  or in the Authorizing  Resolution relating
thereto,  to any currency  shall be of the essence.  In the case of any Security
denominated in any currency (the "Required  Currency")  other than United States
dollars,  except as  otherwise  provided  therein or in the related  Authorizing
Resolution,  the  obligation  of the Company to make any  payment of  principal,
premium or interest  thereon  shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender
by the  Company,  or recovery by the  Trustee,  in any  currency  other than the
Required  Currency,  except to the extent  that such  tender or  recovery  shall
result in the Trustee  timely  holding the full amount of the Required  Currency
then due and payable. If any such tender or recovery is in a currency other than
the  Required  Currency,  the  Trustee  may take such  actions  as it  considers
appropriate to exchange such currency for the Required  Currency.  The costs and
risks of any such exchange,  including without limitation the risks of delay and
exchange  rate  fluctuation,  shall be borne by the Company,  the Company  shall
remain  fully  liable for any  shortfall  or  delinquency  in the full amount of
Required  Currency  then due and  payable,  and in no  circumstances  shall  the
Trustee be liable  therefor.  The Company  hereby  waives any defense of payment
based upon any such tender or recovery which is not in the Required Currency, or
which, when exchanged for the Required Currency by the Trustee, is less than the
full amount of Required Currency then due and payable.

that the Securities  which are the subject  thereof shall be  authenticated  and
delivered  by the  Authenticating  Agent upon the  telephonic,  written or other
order of Persons  designated  in the Company  Order,  and that such  Persons are
authorized to specify the terms and conditions of such Securities, to the extent
permitted by the  Authorizing  Resolution  or  supplemental  indenture  relating
thereto.  The Trustee shall execute and deliver the  supplemental  indenture (if
any) and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver said Securities
as specified in such Company Order; provided,  that, prior to authentication and
delivery  of  the  first   Securities  of  any  Series,   the  Trustee  and  the
Authenticating Agent shall have received:

         (1) A copy of the Authorizing Resolution;

         (2) A supplemental indenture in respect of the  issuance of the Series,
     if  called  for by the  terms  of the  Authorizing  Resolution  in  respect
     thereof, executed on behalf of the Company;

         (3) An Officers'  Certificate to the effect that the Securities of such
     Series comply or will comply with the  requirements  of this  Indenture and
     the said Authorizing Resolution and supplemental indenture (if any);

         (4) An Opinion of Counsel (a) to the effect that (i) the  Securities of
     such Series, the Authorizing  Resolution and the supplemental indenture (if
     any) relating  thereto comply or will comply with the  requirements of this
     Indenture and (ii) the Securities of such Series,  when  authenticated  and
     delivered by the  Authenticating  Agent in accordance with the said Company
     Order,  will  constitute  valid and binding  obligations of the Company and
     enforceable in accordance  with their terms,  subject to (A) bankruptcy and
     other laws affecting  creditors' rights generally as in effect from time to
     time, (B) limitations of generally  applicable equitable principles and (C)
     other  exceptions  acceptable  to the  Trustee  and  its  counsel;  and (b)
     relating  to such  other  matters as may  reasonably  be  requested  by the
     Trustee or its counsel; and

         (5)  If  the  Securities  to be  issued  are  Original  Issue  Discount
     Securities,  an Officers'  Certificate  setting forth the Yield to Maturity
     for the Securities or other  information  sufficient to compute amounts due
     on  acceleration,  or specifying the manner in which such amounts are to be
     determined,  provided  that such Yield to Maturity  and other facts are not
     specified in the form of the Securities.

     Subject to Section 601  hereof,  the  Authenticating  Agent and the Trustee
shall be fully  protected  in  relying  upon the  documents  delivered  to it as
provided above in connection with the issuance of any Series of Securities.

Exhibit 4.1                            20
<PAGE>

     The  Authenticating  Agent shall have the right to decline to  authenticate
and deliver any Securities under this Section if the Authenticating Agent, being
advised by counsel,  determines that such action may not lawfully be taken or if
the  Authenticating  Agent  in good  faith  by a  committee  of its  Responsible
Officers shall determine that such action would expose the Authenticating  Agent
to liability to Holders of previously issued and Outstanding Securities.

     Each  Security  shall  be  dated  the  date  of its  authentication  unless
otherwise specified in the Authorizing Resolution relating thereto.

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

SECTION 304.  Temporary Securities.

     Pending the  preparation  of definitive  Securities of any Series or Issue,
the Company may execute,  and upon compliance  with the  requirements of Section
303  the  Authenticating   Agent  shall  authenticate  and  deliver,   temporary
Securities,  which may be printed,  lithographed,  typewritten,  photocopied  or
otherwise  produced,  in any  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 may, consistently
herewith, be determined by the officers executing such Securities,  as evidenced
by their execution of such Securities.

     If  temporary  Securities  of any Series or Issue are  issued,  the Company
shall  thereafter  cause  definitive  Securities  for such Series or Issue 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  provided for that purpose,  without  charge to the Holder.  Upon
surrender for  cancellation of any one or more temporary  Securities the Company
shall execute and the  Authenticating  Agent shall  authenticate  and deliver in
exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized
denominations.  Until  so  exchanged,  the  temporary  Securities  shall  in all
respects be entitled to the same  benefits  under this  Indenture as  definitive
Securities.

SECTION 305.  Global Securities

     If the Company shall establish  pursuant to Section 301 that the Securities
of a  Series  are to be  issued  in  whole or in part in the form of one or more
Global  Securities,  then the Company  shall execute and the Trustee  shall,  in
accordance  with this Section and the Company Order with respect to such Series,
authenticate and deliver one or more Global Securities in temporary or permanent
form that (i) shall  represent and shall be denominated  in an aggregate  amount
equal to the aggregate  principal  amount of the Outstanding  Securities of such
Series  to be  represented  by one or more  Global  Securities,  (ii)  shall  be
registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global  Security of Securities
or the nominee of such  Depositary,  (iii) shall be  delivered by the Trustee to
such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary's instruction and (iv) shall bear
a legend  substantially  to the following effect (or such other legend as may be

Exhibit 4.1                            21
<PAGE>

prescribed by the Depositary):  "Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in
part for  Securities in  definitive  registered  form,  this Security may not be
transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to the nominee of the Depositary
or by a nominee of the  Depositary to the  Depositary or another  nominee of the
Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or
a nominee of such successor Depositary."

     Each Depositary designated pursuant to Section 301 for a Global Security in
registered  form must, at the time of its  designation and at all times while it
serves as Depositary, be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and
any other applicable statute or regulation.

     Beneficial  owners of part or all of a Global  Security shall be subject to
the rules of the  Depositary  as in effect from time to time.  The Company,  the
Trustee and the Paying Agent shall not be responsible  for any acts or omissions
of the Depositary, for any Depositary records of beneficial interests or for any
transactions between the Depositary and beneficial owners.

     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, unless and until it is
exchanged  in whole or in part  for  Securities  in  definitive  form,  a Global
Security  representing all or a portion of the Securities of a Series may not be
transferred  except as a whole by the Depositary for such Series or to a nominee
of such  Depositary  or by a nominee of such  Depositary  to such  Depositary or
another  nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to
a  successor  Depositary  for  such  Series  or  a  nominee  of  such  successor
Depositary.

     If at any time the Depositary  for any Securities of a Series  notifies the
Company  that it is  unwilling  or  unable to  continue  as  Depositary  for the
Securities of such Series or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities of
such Series shall no longer be eligible  under  Section  305, the Company  shall
appoint a successor  Depositary  eligible under Section 305, with respect to the
Securities of such Series. If a successor  Depositary eligible under Section 305
for the Securities of such Series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days
after the Company  receives such notice or becomes aware of such  ineligibility,
the Company's  election that the Securities of such Series be represented by one
or more  Global  Securities  shall no longer be  effective  with  respect to the
Securities of such Series and the Company  shall  execute and the Trustee,  upon
receipt of a Company  Order for the  authentication  and delivery of  definitive
Securities of such Series,  shall  authenticate and deliver,  Securities of such
Series  in  definitive  form  in an  aggregate  principal  amount  equal  to the
principal amount of the Global Security or Securities  representing  such Series
in exchange for such Global Security or Securities.

     The Company may at any time and in its sole  discretion  determine that the
Securities  of any Series  issued in the form of one or more  Global  Securities
shall no longer be  represented by such Global  Security or Securities.  In such
event the Company  shall  execute,  and the  Trustee,  upon receipt of a Company
Order for the  authentication  and  delivery of  definitive  Securities  of such
Series, shall authenticate and deliver,  Securities of such Series in definitive
form and in an aggregate  principal  amount equal to the principal amount of the
Global  Security or  Securities  representing  such Series in exchange  for such
Global Security or Securities.

     If  specified  by the Company  pursuant  to Section  301 with  respect to a
Series of Securities  represented by a Global Security,  the Depositary for such
Global  Securities may surrender a Global Security for such Series of Securities

Exhibit 4.1                            22
<PAGE>

in exchange in whole or in part for Securities of such Series in definitive form
on such terms as are acceptable to the Company and such  Depositary.  Thereupon,
the Company  shall  execute,  and the Trustee  shall  authenticate  and deliver,
without service charge:

         (i) to each  Person  specified  by such  Depositary  a new  Security or
     Securities of the same Series, of any authorized  denomination as requested
     by such Person in aggregate  principal  amount equal to and in exchange for
     such Person's beneficial interest in the Global Security; and

         (ii) to such Depositary a new Global  Security in a denomination  equal
     to the difference,  if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered
     Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of Securities  delivered
     pursuant to clause (i) above.

     In any exchange provided for in this Section,  the Company will execute and
the Trustee will  authenticate and deliver  Securities in definitive  registered
form in authorized denominations.

     Upon the  exchange  of a  Global  Security  for  Securities  in  definitive
registered  form,  such Global  Security shall be cancelled by the Trustee or an
agent of the Company or the  Trustee.  The  Trustee or such agent shall  deliver
such  Securities to or as directed by the Persons in whose names such Securities
are so registered.

SECTION 306.  Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

     The  Company  shall  cause to be kept a register  at one of its  offices or
agencies  maintained  pursuant  to  Section  1002  (herein  referred  to as  the
"Security  Register") in which,  subject to such  reasonable  regulations as the
Company  may  prescribe,  the Company  shall  provide  for the  registration  of
Securities and the  registration  of transfers of Securities.  At all reasonable
times the Security  Register  shall be open for  inspection by the Trustee.  The
Security Register shall be kept at the said office or agency, and said office or
agency is hereby  initially  appointed  "Security  Registrar" for the purpose of
registering  Securities and transfers of Securities as herein  provided.  If the
Security  Registrar  shall not be the  Authenticating  Agent in  respect  of any
Series,  the Company  shall  promptly  notify the  Security  Registrar as to the
amounts and terms of each  Security of such Series which shall be  authenticated
and delivered  hereunder,  and as to the names in which such Securities shall be
registered.

     Upon surrender for  registration  of transfer of any Security at the office
or agency of the Company  provided for that purpose,  the Company shall execute,
and the Authenticating  Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated  transferee or  transferees,  one or more new  Securities of the same
Issue and Stated Maturity of a like aggregate principal amount.

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

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

     No  service  charge  shall  be made for any  registration  of  transfer  or
exchange of Securities,  but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient

Exhibit 4.1                            23
<PAGE>

to cover any tax or other governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection
with any  registration  of  transfer  or  exchange  of  Securities,  other  than
exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 906 or 1108 not involving any transfer.

     The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or
exchange any Security of any Series during a period  beginning at the opening of
the day which is 15  Business  Days before the day of the mailing of a notice of
redemption of Securities of such Series  selected for  redemption  under Section
1104 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing,  or (ii) to
register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for  redemption in
whole or in part,  except,  in the case of any  Security to be redeemed in part,
the portion thereof not to be redeemed.

     At the option of the Holder (other than a Global  Security),  Securities of
any  Issue  may be  exchanged  for  other  Securities  of the same  Issue of any
authorized  denominations,  of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender
of the  Securities  to be  exchanged  at such  office or  agency.  Whenever  any
Securities are so surrendered for exchange,  the Company shall execute,  and the
Authenticating  Agent shall  authenticate and deliver,  the Securities which the
Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

SECTION 307.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

     If (i) any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, or the Company
and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction,  loss
or theft of any  Security,  and (ii) 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 request the  Authenticating  Agent shall  authenticate  and
deliver, in exchange for, or in lieu of, any such mutilated,  destroyed, lost or
stolen  Security,  a new  Security of like tenor,  Issue and  principal  amount,
bearing  a  number  not  assigned  to any  Security  of  the  same  Series  then
outstanding.

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

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

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

     The  provisions of this Section are  exclusive  and (to the extent  lawful)
shall preclude all other rights and remedies with respect to the  replacement or
payment of mutilated,  destroyed,  lost or stolen  Securities.  If a Security is
replaced  pursuant to Section 307, it shall cease to be  Outstanding  unless the

Exhibit 4.1                            24
<PAGE>

Company receives proof  satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by
a protected purchaser, as defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code.

SECTION 308.  Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

     Interest which is payable,  and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on
any Interest Payment Date, on the Securities of any Issue,  shall be paid to the
Persons in whose names the  Securities (or one or more  Predecessor  Securities)
are  registered  at the close of business  on the  Regular  Record Date for such
interest.

     Any  interest on any  Security  of any Issue  which is payable,  but is not
punctually  paid or duly  provided for, on any Interest  Payment Date,  together
with any interest thereon (herein called  "Defaulted  Interest") shall forthwith
cease to be payable to the Holder,  as such, on the Regular Record Date for such
payment; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election
in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below:

         (1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted  Interest to
     the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective  Predecessor
     Securities)  are  registered  at the close of business on a Special  Record
     Date for the payment of such  Defaulted  Interest,  which shall be fixed in
     the  following  manner.  The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of
     the amount of Defaulted  Interest  proposed to be paid on each  Security of
     such Issue and the date of the proposed  payment,  and at the same time the
     Company  shall  deposit  with the  Trustee an amount of money  equal to the
     aggregate  amount of such Defaulted  Interest  proposed to be paid or shall
     make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the
     date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust
     for the  benefit of the  Persons  entitled to such amount 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 of such Issue at his address as it appears in
     the Security  Register  not less than 10 days prior to such Special  Record
     Date.  Notice of the proposed  payment of such  Defaulted  Interest and the
     Special  Record  Date  therefor  having  been  mailed  as  aforesaid,  such
     Defaulted  Interest  shall be paid to the  Persons in whose  names the said
     Securities (or their respective  Predecessor  Securities) are registered 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 in any other
     lawful manner not  inconsistent  with the  requirements  of any  securities
     exchange on which the  Securities  of such  Series 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 payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

     Subject  to  the  foregoing  provisions  of  this  Section,  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 309.  Persons Deemed Owners.

     Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Security,  the
Company,  the  Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name any Security is  registered  as the owner of such  Security
for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium,  if any), and
(subject to Section 308) interest on, such  Security and for all other  purposes
whatsoever,  whether or not such  Security be overdue,  and neither the Company,
the Trustee  nor any agent of the  Company or the  Trustee  shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.

SECTION 310.  Cancellation.

     All  Securities  surrendered  for  payment,  redemption,   registration  of
transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee,
be delivered to the Trustee.  All  Securities  so delivered  and any  Securities
surrendered  directly  to the  Trustee  for any such  purpose  shall be promptly
cancelled by the Trustee and all Securities of any Series or Issue  delivered to
the Trustee  for credit  against  any  Sinking  Fund  payment in respect of such
Series or Issue  pursuant  to Section  1202 shall be promptly  cancelled  by the
Trustee. 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. 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 and  certification  of their
destruction delivered to the Company unless by a Company Order the Company shall
direct that cancelled Securities be returned to it.

                    ARTICLE FOUR--SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

SECTION 401.  Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

     This  Indenture  shall  cease to be of  further  effect  (except  as to any
surviving  rights of registration  of transfer or exchange of Securities  herein
expressly  provided  for,  and except as otherwise  provided in the  Authorizing
Resolution in respect of any Series),  and the Trustee,  on demand of and at the
expense  of  the  Company,   shall  execute  proper  instruments   acknowledging

         interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of  Securities  which

obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 607 shall survive.

SECTION 402.  Application of Trust Money.

     All money and U.S.  Governmental  Obligations  deposited  with the  Trustee

SECTION 501.  Events of Default.

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

SECTION 502.  Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

     If any one or more of the Events of Default  described  in clauses (1), (2)
or (3) of Section 501 with  respect to  Securities  of any Series or Issue shall

Exhibit 4.1                            28
<PAGE>

happen,  then,  and in each and every such case,  during the  continuance of any
such Event of Default,  either the Trustee, by notice in writing to the Company,
or the  Holders  of at least 25% in  principal  amount of such  Securities  then
Outstanding, by notice in writing to the Company and to the Trustee, may declare
the  principal  amount (or,  if such  Securities  are  Original  Issue  Discount
Securities,  such  portion  of the  principal  amount as may then be  payable on
acceleration  as  provided  in the terms  thereof)  of and  accrued  and  unpaid
interest on all such Securities  then  Outstanding (if not then due and payable)
to be immediately due and payable,  and upon any such declaration the same shall
become and be immediately due and payable,  anything in this Indenture or in the
Securities contained to the contrary notwithstanding.  If any one or more of the
Events of Default described in clause (4) of Section 501 shall happen, then, and
in each and  every  such  case,  during  the  continuance  of any such  Event of
Default, either the Trustee, by notice in writing to the Company, or the Holders
of at least  25% in  principal  amount  of the  Securities  of all  Issues  then
Outstanding  (or,  if  such  default  is not  applicable  to all  Issues  of the
Securities,  the Holders of at least 25% in principal  amount of the Outstanding
Securities  of all Issues to which it is  applicable)  (in each case voting as a
single  class),  by notice in writing to the  Company  and to the  Trustee,  may
declare  the  principal  amount (or,  if the  Securities  of any such Issues are
Original Issue Discount Securities,  such portion of the principal amount as may
then be payable on  acceleration  as provided in the terms of that Issue) of and
accrued and unpaid interest on all the Securities (or all the Securities of such
Issues,  if such default is not applicable to all Issues of the Securities) then
Outstanding (if not then due and payable) to be immediately due and payable, and
upon any such  declaration  the same  shall  become and be  immediately  due and
payable,  anything  in this  Indenture  or in the  Securities  contained  to the
contrary notwithstanding.  If any one or more of the Events of Default described
in clauses (5) or (6) of Section 501 shall happen,  then,  and in each and every
such case,  during the  continuance  of any such  Event of  Default,  either the
Trustee,  by notice in writing to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in
principal  amount of all the  Securities  then  Outstanding  (voting as a single
class), by notice in writing to the Company and to the Trustee,  may declare the
principal amount (or, if any Securities are Original Issue Discount  Securities,
such portion of the principal  amount as may then be payable on  acceleration as
provided in the terms  thereof)  of and  accrued and unpaid  interest on all the
Securities then Outstanding (if not then due and payable), to be immediately due
and  payable,  and upon any  such  declaration  the  same  shall  become  and be
immediately  due and payable,  anything in this  Indenture or in the  Securities
contained to the contrary notwithstanding.

     At any time after such a  declaration  of  acceleration  has been made with
respect to any  Securities  and before a judgment  or decree for  payment of the
money due has been  obtained  by the  Trustee  as  hereinafter  in this  Article
provided,  the  Holders of a majority  in  principal  amount of such  Securities
Outstanding (voting as a single class), by written notice to the Company and the
Trustee,  may rescind and annul such  declaration  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 principal or
interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration.

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

SECTION 503.  Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

     The Company covenants that if

Exhibit 4.1                            29
<PAGE>

         (1)  default is made in the payment of any  installment  of interest on
     any Security  when such  interest  becomes due and payable and such default
     continues  for the period of grace,  if any,  provided  for with respect to
     such payment, or

         (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium,  if
     any, on) any Security at its  Maturity and such default  continues  for the
     period of grace, if any, provided for with respect to such payment,

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee,  pay to it, for the benefit of the
Holders of all such  Securities,  the whole  amount then due and payable on such
Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest,  with interest,  to
the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,  upon the overdue  principal
(and premium,  if any) and installments of interest from the due date thereof at
the rate borne by such  Securities  or, in the case of Original  Issue  Discount
Securities,  at a rate equal to the Yield to Maturity thereof,  and, in addition
thereto,  such  further  amount  as shall be  sufficient  to cover the costs and
expenses  of  collection,  including  the  reasonable  compensation,   expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

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

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

SECTION 504.  Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

     In case  of the  pendency  of any  receivership,  insolvency,  liquidation,
bankruptcy,  reorganization,   arrangement,  adjustment,  composition  or  other
judicial  proceeding  relative  to the  Company  or any other  obligor  upon the
Securities  or the  property of the  Company or of such other  obligor or its or
their  creditors,  the Trustee  (irrespective  of whether the  principal  of the
Securities shall then be due and payable as therein  expressed or by declaration
or otherwise and  irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand
on the  Company  for the  payment of overdue  principal  or  interest)  shall be
entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

         (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole  amount (or, in the case of
     Original Issue Discount  Securities,  such portion of the principal  amount
     thereof as shall then be provable in  bankruptcy  as specified  therein) of
     principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid in respect of
     the  Securities  and to file  such  other  papers  or  documents  as may be
     necessary  or  advisable  in  order  to  have  the  claims  of the  Trustee
     (including   any  claim   for  the   reasonable   compensation,   expenses,
     disbursements  and advances of the Trustee,  its agents and counsel) and of
     the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

Exhibit 4.1                            30
<PAGE>

         (ii)     to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
     deliverable  on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any receiver,  liquidator,  assignee, trustee,  custodian,  sequestrator (or
other similar official) in any such judicial  proceeding is hereby authorized by
each  Holder to make such  payments  to the  Trustee,  and in the event that the
Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to
pay to the  Trustee  any  amount  due to it  for  the  reasonable  compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and
any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607.

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

SECTION 505.  Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.

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

SECTION 506.  Application of Money Collected.

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

         FIRST: To the payment  of all  amounts due to the Trustee under Section
     607;

         SECOND:  In case the  principal of the  Securities  in respect of which
     moneys  have  been  collected  shall  not have  become  and be then due and
     payable,  to the  payment of interest  on the  Securities  of such Issue in
     default in the order of the maturity of the  installments of such interest,
     with  interest (to the extent that  payment of such  interest is lawful and
     such  interest  has  been  collected  by  the  Trustee)  upon  the  overdue
     installments  of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest or Yield
     to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities)  applicable
     to such  Securities,  such  payments  to be  made  ratably  to the  persons
     entitled thereto, without discrimination or preference;

         THIRD:  In case the  principal  of the  Securities  in respect of which
     moneys  have been  collected  shall  have  become and shall be then due and
     payable,  to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon all
     the  Securities  of such Issue for  principal  and  interest,  with (to the
     extent that payment of such  interest is lawful and such  interest has been
     collected by the Trustee)  interest  upon the overdue  principal,  and upon
     overdue  installments  of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest
     or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original  Issue  Discount  Securities)

Exhibit 4.1                            31
<PAGE>

     applicable to the  Securities of such Issue;  and in case such moneys shall
     be  insufficient to pay in full the whole amount so due and unpaid upon the
     Securities  of such  Issue,  then to the  payment  of  such  principal  and
     interest,  without preference or priority of principal over interest, or of
     interest over  principal,  or of any installment of interest over any other
     installment  of  interest,  or of any Security of such Issue over any other
     Security of such Issue,  ratably to the  aggregate  of such  principal  and
     accrued and unpaid interest.

         FOURTH: To the Company.

SECTION 507.  Limitation on Suits.

     No  Holder  of any  Securities  shall  have  any  right  to  institute  any
proceeding,  judicial  or  otherwise,  with  respect  to this  Indenture  or the
Securities,  or for the  appointment of a receiver or trustee,  or for any other
remedy hereunder, unless

         (1)  the Trustee shall have received written notice from such Holder of
     a continuing  Event of Default in respect of such Securities;

         (2)  the Trustee shall have received a written request from the Holders
     of not less than 25% in principal  amount of the Outstanding  Securities of
     the Issue or Series in respect of which the Event of Default  has  occurred
     to  institute  proceedings  in  respect of such Event of Default in its own
     name as Trustee hereunder;

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

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

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

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

SECTION 508.  Unconditional  Right of Holders to Receive Principal,  Premium and
Interest.

     Notwithstanding  any other provision in this  Indenture,  the Holder of any
Security shall have the absolute and  unconditional  right to receive payment of
the principal of (and premium,  if any) and (subject to Section 308) interest on
such Security on the  respective  Stated  Maturities  expressed in such Security
(or, in the case of redemption,  on the  Redemption  Date) and to institute suit
for the  enforcement  of any such payment,  and such right shall not be impaired
without the consent of such Holder.

Exhibit 4.1                            32
<PAGE>

SECTION 509.  Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

     If the Trustee or any Holder has  instituted  any proceeding to enforce any
right or remedy under this Indenture and such  proceeding has been  discontinued
or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined  adversely to the Trustee or
to such  Holder,  then and in every such case the  Company,  the Trustee and the
Holders shall,  subject to any  determination  in such  proceeding,  be restored
severally and respectively to their former positions  hereunder,  and thereafter
all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall  continue as though
no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 510.  Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

     No right or remedy herein  conferred  upon or reserved to the Trustee or to
the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy,  and every
right and remedy shall,  to the extent  permitted by law, be  cumulative  and in
addition to every other right and remedy  given  hereunder  or now or  hereafter
existing at law or in equity or  otherwise.  The  assertion or employment of any
right or remedy  hereunder,  or  otherwise,  shall not  prevent  the  concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 511.  Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

     No delay or  omission  of the  Trustee or of any Holder of any  Security to
exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any
such right or remedy or  constitute  a waiver of any such Event of Default or an
acquiescence therein.  Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to
the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised  from time to time,  and as often
as may be deemed  expedient,  by the Trustee or by the Holders,  as the case may
be.

SECTION 512.  Control by Holders.

     The  Holders  of not  less  than a  majority  in  principal  amount  of the
Outstanding  Securities of any Series  (voting as a single class) shall have the
right to direct the time,  method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy  available to the Trustee or exercising  any trust or power  conferred on
the Trustee in respect of the Securities of such Series, provided that

         (1)  such direction  shall not be in  conflict  with any rule of law or
     with this  Indenture  or unduly  prejudicial  to the  rights of  Holders of
     Securities  of all Series not joining in such  direction or, in the opinion
     of the Trustee, involve the Trustee in personal liability, and

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

SECTION 513.  Waiver of Past Defaults.

     The  Holders  of not  less  than a  majority  in  principal  amount  of the
Outstanding Securities of all Series affected thereby (voting as a single class)
may on behalf  of the  Holders  of all such  Securities  waive any past  default
hereunder and its consequences, except a default

         (1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
     on any Security, or

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

Exhibit 4.1                             33
<PAGE>

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

SECTION 514.  Undertaking for Costs.

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

SECTION 515.  Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.

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

SECTION 516.  Exemption from Individual Liability.

     No recourse  under or upon any  obligation,  covenant or  agreement of this
Indenture,  or of any  Security,  or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in
respect thereof,  shall be had against any incorporator,  stockholder,  officer,
director or employee, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any
successor Person,  either directly or through the Company,  whether by virtue of
any  constitution,  statute  or  rule  of  law,  or by  the  enforcement  of any
assessment  or penalty or otherwise,  it being  expressly  understood  that this
Indenture and the obligations issued hereunder are solely corporate  obligations
of the Company, and that no such personal liability whatever shall attach to, or
is or shall be incurred by, the incorporators, stockholders, officers, directors
or employees,  as such, of the Company or of any successor Person, or any of the
foregoing  Persons,   because  of  the  creation  of  the  indebtedness   hereby
authorized,  or under or by reason of the  obligations,  covenants or agreements
contained in this  Indenture or in any of the  Securities or implied  therefrom;
and that any and all such personal liability,  either at common law or in equity
or by  constitution  or  statute,  of,  and any and all such  rights  and claims
against, every such incorporator, stockholder, officer, director or employee, as
such, because of the creation of the indebtedness hereby authorized, or under or

Exhibit 4.1                             34
<PAGE>

by  reason  of the  obligations,  covenants  or  agreements  contained  in  this
Indenture or in any of the Securities or implied therefrom, are hereby expressly
waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution
of this Indenture and the issuance of such Securities.

                            ARTICLE SIX--The Trustee

SECTION 601.  Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

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

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

         (2)  in  the  absence  of  bad  faith  on its  part,  the  Trustee  may
     conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of
     the opinions expressed therein,  upon certificates or opinions furnished to
     the Trustee and conforming to the  requirements of this  Indenture;  but in
     the case of any  such  certificates  or  opinions  which by any  provisions
     hereof are  specifically  required  to be  furnished  to the  Trustee,  the
     Trustee  shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine  whether or
     not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

     (b) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee
shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and
use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise,  as a prudent man would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

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

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

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

         (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or
     omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of
     the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
     of all Series (voting as a single class)  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; and

         (4) no provision of this Indenture  shall require the Trustee to expend
     or risk its own funds or  otherwise  incur any  financial  liability in the
     performance  of any of its duties  hereunder,  or in the exercise of any of
     its rights or powers,  if it shall have  reasonable  grounds for  believing
     that  repayment  of such funds or adequate  indemnity  against such risk or
     liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Security Register, notice of such default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless
such default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in
the case of a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or

board of directors,  the executive  committee or a trust  committee of directors
and/or  Responsible  Officers  of the Trustee in good faith  determine  that the
withholding  of such notice is in the  interest of the  Holders;  and  provided,
further,  that in the case of any default of the character  specified in Section
501(4) no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the
occurrence thereof.

SECTION 609.  Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

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

America or of any State,  authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust
powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $5,000,000, subject to
supervision or examination by Federal or State  authority.  If such  corporation
publishes  reports of  condition  at least  annually,  pursuant to law or to the
requirements of the aforesaid  supervising or examining authority,  then for the
purposes of this  Section 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.  Neither the Company nor any Affiliate
of the  Company  shall  serve as Trustee  hereunder.  If at any time the Trustee
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it
shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified
in this Article.

SECTION 610.  Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

     (a) No  resignation  or  removal of the  Trustee  and no  appointment  of a
successor  Trustee  pursuant to this Article  shall become  effective  until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 611.

     (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with  respect to the  Securities  of
any Series by giving written notice thereof to the Company.  If an instrument of
acceptance by a successor  Trustee shall not have been  delivered to the Trustee
within 30 days after the giving of such  notice of  resignation,  the  resigning
Trustee may petition any court of competent  jurisdiction for the appointment of
a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such Series.

     (c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with  respect to the  Securities
of any Series (i) by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding  Securities  of such  Series,  delivered  to the  Trustee and to the
Company or (ii) so long  as there shall not have  occurred and be  continuing  a
Default or Event of Default, by written notice from the Company to the Trustee.

     (d) If at any time:

         (1) the  Trustee  shall fail to comply with  Section 608 after  written
     request  therefor  by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide
     Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

         (2) the Trustee for a Series of  Securities  shall cease to be eligible
     under Section 609 and shall fail to resign after written  request  therefor
     by the Company or by any such Holder of such Securities, or

Exhibit 4.1                             38
<PAGE>

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

then,  in any such case,  (i) the Company may remove the Trustee with respect to
all  Securities,  or (ii) subject to Section 514,  unless the Trustee's  duty to
resign is stayed as provided in Section  608 of this  Indenture,  any Holder who
has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf
of himself and all others  similarly  situated,  petition any court of competent
jurisdiction  for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all  Securities and
the appointment of a successor Trustee.

     (e) If the Trustee shall resign,  be removed or become incapable of acting,
or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect
to the Securities of one or more Series,  the Company shall  promptly  appoint a
successor  Trustee or Trustees  with respect to the  Securities of that or those
Series (it being  understood  that any such  successor  Trustee may be appointed
with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such Series and that any
time there  shall be only one  Trustee  with  respect to the  Securities  of any
particular Series) and shall comply with the applicable  requirements of Section
611. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the
occurrence of such vacancy,  a successor  Trustee with respect to the Securities
of any  Series  shall  be  appointed  by Act of the  Holders  of a  majority  in
principal  amount of the Outstanding  Securities of such Series delivered to the
Company and the retiring  Trustee,  the  successor  Trustee so appointed  shall,
forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment,  become the successor Trustee
with  respect to the  Securities  of such  Series and  supersede  the  successor
Trustee  appointed by the Company.  If no successor  Trustee with respect to the
Securities  of any Series  shall have been so  appointed  by the  Company or the
Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided,  any Holder
who has been a bona fide  Holder of a Security  of such  Series for at least six
months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any
court of competent  jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of such Series.

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

SECTION 611.  Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

     (a)  Every  successor  Trustee  appointed  hereunder  with  respect  to all
Securities  shall  execute,  acknowledge  and  deliver to the Company and to the
retiring  Trustee an instrument  accepting such  appointment,  and thereupon the
resignation or removal of the retiring  Trustee shall become  effective and such
successor  Trustee,  without any further act, deed or  conveyance,  shall become
vested with all the rights,  powers,  trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee;
but, on request of the Company or the successor  Trustee,  such retiring Trustee

Exhibit 4.1                             39
<PAGE>

shall,  upon  payment  of  its  charges,   execute  and  deliver  an  instrument
transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights,  powers and trusts of the
retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign,  transfer and deliver to such successor
Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder,  subject
nevertheless to its lien, if any, provided for in Section 607.

     (b) In  case of the  appointment  hereunder  of a  successor  Trustee  with
respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) Series, the Company,  the
retiring Trustee,  upon payment of its charges,  and each successor Trustee with
respect to the  Securities  of one or more Series  shall  execute and deliver an
indenture  supplemental  hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such
appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or
desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all
the rights,  powers,  trusts and duties of the retiring  Trustee with respect to
the  Securities  of that or  those  Series  to  which  the  appointment  of such
successor  Trustee  relates,  (2) if the retiring  Trustee is not retiring  with
respect to all  Securities,  shall  contain such  provisions  as shall be deemed
necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties
of the retiring  Trustee with respect to the  Securities of that or those Series
as to which the retiring  Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in
the retiring  Trustee,  and (3) shall add to or change any of the  provisions of
this  Indenture  as  shall  be  necessary  to  provide  for  or  facilitate  the
administration  of the  trusts  hereunder  by more  than one  Trustee,  it being
understood  that  nothing  herein  or  in  such  supplemental   indenture  shall
constitute  such  Trustees  co-trustees  of the same  trust  and that  each such
Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder  separate and apart from
any trust or trusts hereunder  administered by any other such Trustee;  and upon
the execution and delivery of such  supplemental  indenture the  resignation  or
removal of the retiring  Trustee shall become  effective to the extent  provided
therein  and each such  successor  Trustee,  without any  further  act,  deed or
conveyance,  shall become vested with all the rights,  powers, trusts and duties
of the retiring  Trustee with respect to the  Securities of that or those Series
to which the appointment of such successor  Trustee relates;  but, on request of
the Company or any successor  Trustee,  such retiring Trustee shall duly assign,
transfer  and deliver to such  successor  Trustee all property and money held by
such retiring Trustee  hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those
Series to which the  appointment  of such  successor  Trustee  relates,  subject
nevertheless to its lien, if any, provided for in Section 607.

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

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

SECTION 612.  Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

     Any  corporation  into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be  consolidated,  or any  corporation  resulting  from any merger,
conversion  or  consolidation  to which  the  Trustee  shall be a party,  or any
corporation  succeeding  to all or  substantially  all  of the  corporate  trust
business  of the  Trustee,  shall be the  successor  of the  Trustee  hereunder,
provided such corporation  shall be otherwise  qualified and eligible under this
Article,  without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the
part of any of the  parties  hereto.  In case any  Securities  shall  have  been

Exhibit 4.1                             40
<PAGE>

authenticated,  but not delivered,  by the Trustee then in office, any successor
by merger,  conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt
such  authentication  and deliver the Securities so authenticated  with the same
effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

        ARTICLE SEVEN--HOLDERS' LISTS AND REPORTS BY TRUSTEE AND COMPANY

SECTION 701.  Company to Furnish Trustee Names and Addresses of Holders.

     The Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee

         (a)  semi-annually,  not later than March 15 and  September  15 in each
     year, a list, in such form as the Trustee may  reasonably  require,  of the
     names and  addresses of the Holders of the  Securities of each Series as of

     30 days after the  receipt by the  Company of any such  request,  a list of
     similar  form and  content  as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the
     time such list is furnished,

provided,  however,  that so long as the Trustee is the Security  Registrar,  no
such list shall be required to be furnished.

SECTION 702.  Preservation Of Information; Communications to Holders.

     (a) The  Trustee  shall  preserve,  in as  current a form as is  reasonably
practicable,  the names and  addresses of Holders of  Securities  of each Series
contained  in the most recent list  furnished  to the Trustee in respect of such
Series as provided in Section 701 and the name and addresses of Holders received
by the Trustee in its capacity as Security Registrar (if so acting). The Trustee
may destroy any list  furnished to it as provided in Section 701 upon receipt of
a new list so furnished.

     (b) If three or more  Holders  of  Securities  of any  Series  (hereinafter
referred to as  "applicants")  apply in writing to the Trustee,  and furnish the
Trustee  reasonable  proof that each such applicant has owned a Security of such
Series  for a  period  of at  least  six  months  preceding  the  date  of  such
application,   and  such  application  states  that  the  applicants  desire  to
communicate  with other  Holders of  Securities  of such Series with  respect to
their rights under this  Indenture or under the Securities and is accompanied by
a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose
to transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five business days after the receipt
of such application, at its election, either

         (i)  afford such  applicants  access to the  information  in respect of
     such Series preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section
     702(a), or

         (ii) inform such applicants as to the approximate  number of Holders of
     Securities  of  such  Series  whose  names  and  addresses  appear  in  the
     information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section
     702(a),  and as to the approximate cost of mailing to such Holders the form
     of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such application.

     If the Trustee  shall elect not to afford  such  applicants  access to such
information,  the Trustee shall,  upon the written  request of such  applicants,
mail to each Holder of Securities  of such Series whose name and address  appear

Exhibit 4.1                             41
<PAGE>

Section  702(a) a copy of the form of  proxy  or  other  communication  which is
specified in such  request,  with  reasonable  promptness  after a tender to the
Trustee  of the  material  to be mailed and of  payment,  or  provision  for the
payment,  of the reasonable  expenses of mailing,  unless within five days after
such  tender,  the  Trustee  shall  mail to such  applicants  and file  with the
Commission,  together  with a copy  of the  material  to be  mailed,  a  written
statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee,  such mailing would
be contrary to the best  interests  of said  Holders or would be in violation of
applicable law. Such written  statement shall specify the basis of such opinion.
If the Commission, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified
in the written statement so filed,  shall enter an order refusing to sustain any
of such objections or if, after the entry of an order  sustaining one or more of
such  objections,  the Commission  shall find,  after notice and opportunity for
hearing,  that all the  objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an
order so  declaring,  the Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all such
Holders with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal
of such tender;  otherwise  the Trustee  shall be relieved of any  obligation or
duty to such applicants respecting their application.

     (c) Every Holder of Securities,  by receiving and holding the same,  agrees
with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee  shall
be held  accountable by reason of the  disclosure of any such  information as to
the names and  addresses  of the  Holders in  accordance  with  Section  702(b),
regardless  of the source  from which such  information  was  derived,  and that
neither  the  Trustee nor the  Company  shall be held  accountable  by reason of
mailing any material pursuant to a request made under Section 702(b).

Series are listed on any stock exchange.

     regulations  prescribe)  which the Company may be required to file with the
     Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act; or,
     if the Company is not  required to file  information,  documents or reports
     pursuant to either of said Sections, then it will file with the Trustee and
     the Commission,  in accordance  with rules and regulations  prescribed from
     time to time by the  Commission,  such of the  supplementary  and  periodic

     Authorizing Resolution relating thereto; and

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

<PAGE>

         (6) to  make any other change  which,  in the opinion of counsel to the
     Company,  does not materially adversely affect the interests of the Holders
     of the Series of Securities affected thereby.

         SECTION 902.  Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders.

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

         (1)  change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment
     of interest on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the
     interest  thereon or any premium  payable upon the redemption  thereof,  or
     reduce the amount of the principal of an Original Issue  Discount  Security
     which  would be due and  payable  upon  acceleration  under  Section 502 or
     provable in bankruptcy under Section 504, or change the coin or currency in
     which any Security or any  interest  thereon is payable or impair the right
     to institute  suit for the  enforcement of any such payment on or after the
     Stated  Maturity  thereof (or, in the case of  redemption,  on or after the
     Redemption Date), or

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

         (3)  modify  any of the  provisions  of this  Section,  Section  513 or
     Section  1010,  except to increase any such  percentage  or to provide that
     certain  other  provisions of this  Indenture  cannot be modified or waived
     without the consent of the Holder of each Security affected thereby.

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

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

SECTION 903.  Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

     In  executing,   or  accepting  the  additional   trusts  created  by,  any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of

Exhibit 4.1                             45
<PAGE>

and  (subject  to Section  601) shall be fully  protected  in relying  upon,  an
Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental  indenture is
authorized  or  permitted by this  Indenture.  The Trustee may, but shall not be
obligated  to,  enter into any such  supplemental  indenture  which  affects the
Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

SECTION 904.  Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

     Upon the execution of any supplemental  indenture under this Article,  this
Indenture  shall be  modified in  accordance  therewith,  and such  supplemental

of Securities  theretofore or thereafter  authenticated and delivered  hereunder
shall be bound thereby.

SECTION 905.  Conformity with Trust Indenture Act.

     Unless  the  Company  shall  determine,  based  on an  Opinion  of  Counsel
delivered  to  the  Trustee,  that  the  same  shall  not  be  required,   every
supplemental  indenture  executed  pursuant to this Article shall conform to the
requirements of TIA as then in effect.

SECTION 906.  Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures.

     Securities   authenticated   and  delivered  after  the  execution  of  any
supplemental  indenture  pursuant to this  Article may, and shall if required by
the  Trustee,  bear a notation in form  approved by the Trustee as to any matter
provided for in such supplemental  indenture. If the Company shall so determine,
new Securities so modified as to conform,  in the opinion of the Trustee and the
Company, to any such supplemental  indenture may be prepared and executed by the
Company and authenticated and delivered by the Authenticating  Agent in exchange
for Outstanding Securities of the same Series and Issue.

                             ARTICLE TEN--COVENANTS

SECTION 1001.  Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest.

     The  Company  will  duly and  punctually  pay (or  cause  to be  paid)  the
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities of each Series
in  accordance  with  the  terms of such  Securities  and  this  Indenture.  The
principal  of  (and  premium,  if any)  and  interest  on  Securities  shall  be
considered  paid on the date due if the Paying  Agents hold in  accordance  with
this Indenture on that date money, sufficient to pay all principal (and premium,
if any) and  interest  then due and the Paying  Agents are not  prohibited  from
paying  such  money to the  Holders on such date  pursuant  to the terms of this
Indenture.

SECTION 1002.  Maintenance of Office or Agency.

     Except as otherwise  provided in the  Authorizing  Resolution in respect of
any  Series,  the  Company  will  maintain an office or agency in The Borough of
Manhattan,  The  City  of  New  York,  where  Securities  may  be  presented  or
surrendered for payment, and will maintain an office or agency in The Borough of
Manhattan,  The  City of New  York,  where  Securities  may be  surrendered  for
registration  of transfer or exchange  and where  notices and demands to or upon
the Company in respect of the Securities  and this Indenture may be served.  The
Company  initially  appoints  the Trustee as such agent at its  Corporate  Trust
Office for said  purposes.  The Company will give prompt  written  notice to the
Trustee of any change in the  location of such office or agency.  If at any time
the  Company  shall  fail to  maintain  such  office or agency or shall  fail to

Exhibit 4.1                             46
<PAGE>

furnish the Trustee with the address thereof,  such  presentations,  surrenders,
notices and demands may be made or served at the  Corporate  Trust Office of the
Trustee,  and the Company  hereby  appoints the Trustee its agent to receive all
such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

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

SECTION 1003.  Money for  Security Payments  to be Held in Trust; Appointment of
Paying Agent.

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

     Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying  Agents,  it will, on or
before each due date of the  principal of (and  premium,  if any) or interest on
any Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum, or make other arrangements so
that there will be moneys,  in each case  sufficient to pay the  principal  (and
premium,  if any) or interest so becoming  due, such sum to be held in trust for
the benefit of the Persons  entitled to such principal (and premium,  if any) or
interest,  and  (unless  such Paying  Agent is the  Trustee)  the  Company  will
promptly  notify the  Trustee of its  action or failure so to act.  The  Company
initially appoints the Trustee as Paying Agent.

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

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

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

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

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

Exhibit 4.1                             47
<PAGE>

     Any money  deposited  with the Trustee or any Paying  Agent or then held by
the Company,  in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any)
or interest on any Security  and  remaining  unclaimed  for two years after such
principal (and premium,  if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be
paid to the Company on Company  Request,  or (if then held by the Company) shall
be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter,
as an unsecured general creditor,  look only to the Company for payment thereof,
and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust
money,  and all  liability of the Company as trustee  thereof,  shall  thereupon
cease.

SECTION 1004.  Statement as to Default.

     The Company will deliver to the Trustee,  on or before a date not more than
four months  after the end of each fiscal year (which on the date hereof ends on
December 31) of the Company  ending after the date  hereof,  a statement  (which
shall not be deemed an  Officers'  Certificate  and need not conform with any of
the  provisions  of Section  102)  signed by the  principal  executive  officer,
principal  financial  officer or  principal  accounting  officer of the Company,
stating that in the course of the  performance by the signers of their duties as
officers of the Company and based upon a review made under their  supervision of
the activities of the Company during such year and of the Company's  performance
under this  Indenture they would normally  obtain  knowledge  whether or not the
Company is in default in the  performance of any covenant or agreement set forth
in the Indenture,  stating whether or not they have obtained  knowledge that the
Company is in default in the  performance of any such covenant or agreement and,
if so,  specifying each such default of which the signers have knowledge and the
nature thereof.

SECTION 1005.  Corporate Existence.

     Subject  to  Article  Eight,  the  Company  will do or cause to be done all
things  necessary  to preserve  and keep in full force and effect its  corporate
existence,  rights  (charter and statutory) and franchises;  provided,  however,
that the Company  shall not be required to preserve  any such right or franchise
if the  Company  shall  determine  that the  preservation  thereof  is no longer
desirable  in the  conduct  of the  business  of the  Company  and that the loss
thereof is not  disadvantageous  in any  material  respect to the Holders of the
Securities.

SECTION 1006.  Limitation upon Liens.

     (a) The Company will not create, assume,  guarantee or suffer to exist, and
will not cause,  suffer or permit any Restricted  Subsidiary to create,  assume,
guarantee or suffer to exist,  any  indebtedness  for borrowed  money secured by
pledge  of, or  mortgage  or lien on,  any of its  Principal  Plants,  or on any
capital stock of any Restricted Subsidiary, other than

         (i)    purchase money  pledges of, or purchase money mortgages or liens
     on, property acquired (including through merger or consolidation) after the
     date of execution of this Indenture, so long as such pledges, mortgages and
     liens shall attach only to the assets so acquired and improvements thereon,

         (ii)  pledges, mortgages or liens on  property acquired  after the date
     of execution of this  Indenture (1) existing at the time of  acquisition of
     such property  (including  through  merger or  consolidation)  or (2) which
     secure  indebtedness the proceeds of which are used to pay, or to reimburse
     the Company or any Restricted  Subsidiary  for, the cost of the acquisition
     or construction of such property,

Exhibit 4.1                             48
<PAGE>

         (iii)  pledges  of or  mortgages or  liens on  property of a Restricted
     Subsidiary existing at the time it becomes a Restricted Subsidiary,

         (iv)  pledges, mortgages or liens to secure all or any part of the cost
     of development or  construction  of any property or assets or  improvements
     thereon  and which shall be  released  or  satisfied  within 120 days after
     completion of such development or construction,

         (v)   pledges, mortgages  or  liens  required  in  connection  with the
     acquisition,  construction  or  development  of additions or  extensions to
     Principal  Plants  which  shall be  financed by  obligations  described  in
     Sections  141-145 of the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,  or by
     obligations  entitled to  substantially  similar tax  benefits  under other
     legislation or regulations in effect from time to time,

         (vi)  pledges, mortgages or liens securing indebtedness  owing  to  the
     Company or a Restricted Subsidiary by a Restricted Subsidiary,

         (vii) pledges,  mortgages  or  liens  existing  at  the  date  of  this
     Indenture,

         (viii) extensions,  renewals or replacements  of pledges,  mortgages or
     liens referred to in clauses (i) to (vii), inclusive, above, or (xi) below,
     provided that the amount of indebtedness secured by such extension, renewal
     or replacement shall not exceed the principal amount of indebtedness  being
     extended,  renewed or replaced,  nor shall the pledge,  mortgage or lien be
     extended to any additional Principal Plant,

         (ix)  as  permitted  under  Subsection  (b) or  Subsection (d) of  this
     Section 1006,

         (x)   pledges,  mortgages  or  liens   incurred  in   connection   with
     sale-leaseback  transactions  permitted under Section 1007, and

         (xi)  pledges,  mortgages  or liens  required  in  connection  with any
     program,  law,  statute or  regulation  of any state or local  governmental
     entity or authority which provides  financial or tax benefits not available
     without such pledge,  mortgage or lien,  provided that substantially all of
     the obligations  secured  thereby are  obligations  that are in lieu of, or
     reduce,  a property tax or other payment  obligation that itself would have
     been secured by a pledge, mortgage or lien permitted hereunder,

without effectively providing that the Securities (together with, if the Company
shall so  determine,  any other  indebtedness  of the Company  then  existing or
thereafter   created   ranking   equally  with  the  Securities  and  any  other
indebtedness of the Restricted  Subsidiary then existing or thereafter  created)
shall be  secured by the  security  of such  secured  indebtedness  equally  and
ratably therewith.

     (b) If the  Company or any  Restricted  Subsidiary  shall at any time enter
into a merger or  consolidation  with  another  corporation  or purchase  all or
substantially all of the assets of another corporation,  or if the Company shall
sell all or substantially  all of its assets to another  corporation and if such
other  corporation has outstanding  indebtedness  secured by a mortgage or other
lien which, by reason of an after-acquired  property clause or similar provision
therein  contained,  would  extend,  after such merger,  consolidation,  sale or
purchase,  to any  Principal  Plant  owned  by the  Company  or such  Restricted
Subsidiary immediately prior to such merger, consolidation, sale or purchase, or
to the capital stock of a Restricted Subsidiary,  the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary,  as the case may be, shall in such event be deemed to have created a

Exhibit 4.1                             49
<PAGE>

mortgage or lien, within the prohibition of Subsection (a) of this Section 1006,
unless (i) such merger or consolidation  involving a Restricted Subsidiary shall
constitute  a  disposition  by the  Company of its  interest  in the  Restricted
Subsidiary, or (ii) either (A) at or prior to the effective date of such merger,
consolidation,  sale or purchase, such mortgage or lien shall have been released
of record or otherwise satisfied to the extent it would extend to such Principal
Plant or (B) prior to such merger, consolidation,  sale or purchase, the Company
or such  Restricted  Subsidiary,  as the case may be,  shall  have  created,  as
security for the Securities (and, if the Company shall so determine, as security
for any other  indebtedness  of the Company then existing or thereafter  created
ranking equally with the Securities and any other indebtedness of the Restricted
Subsidiary  then  existing or  thereafter  created),  a valid lien  which,  upon
completion of said merger,  consolidation,  sale or purchase, will rank prior to
the  lien of such  mortgage  or other  lien of such  other  corporation  on such
Principal Plant or such capital stock of Restricted Subsidiaries.

     (c) If pursuant to the  provisions  of this Section 1006 the Company or any
Restricted  Subsidiary  shall at any time be obligated to secure the  Securities
(together with, if the Company shall so determine,  any other  indebtedness then
existing or thereafter created ranking equally with the Securities and any other
indebtedness of the Restricted  Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created),
the Company covenants and agrees that it will promptly furnish to the Trustee

         (i)  an Officers'  Certificate  stating that the applicable covenant of
     the  Company above  set forth  in this Section 1006 has been complied with;
     and

         (ii) an  Opinion  of Counsel to the  effect that such covenant has been
     complied with.

     (d)  Notwithstanding  the foregoing  provisions  of this Section 1006,  the
Company  and  any  one or  more  Restricted  Subsidiaries  may  create,  assume,
guarantee  or suffer to exist any  indebtedness  for  borrowed  money  otherwise
subject to the  foregoing  restrictions  and in  addition to that  permitted  by
Subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 1006 (other than pursuant to clause (x) of
said Subsection (a)), and renew,  extend or replace such  indebtedness for money
borrowed; provided, that, at the time of such creation,  assumption,  guarantee,
sufferance, renewal, extension or replacement, the aggregate principal amount of
such  indebtedness  for money  borrowed,  when added to the fair market value of
property  transferred in sale-leaseback  transactions and not reacquired at such
time as  permitted  by Section  1007(c) and the  aggregate  principal  amount of
indebtedness  for borrowed  money created,  assumed,  guaranteed or permitted to
exist as permitted by Section 1008(b) (computed  without  duplication of amounts
constituting  indebtedness  referred to in this Subsection (d)), does not at the
time exceed 10% of Net Tangible Assets.

SECTION 1007.  Sale-Leaseback Transactions Relating to Principal Plants.

     (a) Except to the extent  permitted  under  Subsection  (c) of this Section
1007, and except for any transaction  involving a lease for a temporary  period,
not to exceed  three years,  by the end of which it is intended  that the use of
the  leased  property  by the  Company  or any  Restricted  Subsidiary  will  be
discontinued and except for any transaction with a state or local authority that
is required in connection  with any program,  law,  statute or  regulation  that
provides  financial or tax benefits not available without such transaction,  the
Company shall not sell any Principal  Plant as an entirety,  or any  substantial
portion thereof,  with the intention of taking back a lease of such property and
the Company will not permit any  Restricted  Subsidiary  to sell to anyone other
than the Company or a Restricted  Subsidiary any Principal Plant as an entirety,
or any substantial portion thereof, with the intention of taking back a lease of
such property unless

Exhibit 4.1                             50
<PAGE>

         (i)   the net proceeds of  such  sale  (including  any  purchase  money
     mortgages  received in connection with such sale) are at least equal to the

     (c) Notwithstanding the restriction of Subsection (a) of this Section 1007,
the Company and any one or more Restricted Subsidiaries may transfer property in

transferred and not reacquired at such time, when added to the aggregate  amount
of  indebtedness  for borrowed  money  permitted by Section  1006(d) and Section
1008(b) which shall be outstanding at the time (computed without  duplication of
the value of property  transferred as provided in this Subsection (c)), does not
at the time exceed 10% of Net Tangible Assets.

     (d) The Company,  at its option,  shall be entitled to a credit, in respect

be declared to be due and payable pursuant to Section 502.

SECTION 1008.  Limitation Upon Funded Debt of Restricted Subsidiaries.

     (a) The Company will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to create, assume

the  provisions  of Section  1006,  (B) Funded  Debt owed to the  Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary,  (C) Funded Debt of a corporation existing at the time it

governmental  authority,  which is applicable to such Restricted  Subsidiary and
which provides financial or tax benefits to such Restricted Subsidiary which are
not available  directly to the Company or available directly to the Company only
on terms which the Company determines are not as favorable as those available to
the  Restricted  Subsidiary  and (E)  guarantees  existing  at the  date of this
Indenture.

     (b)  Notwithstanding  the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Section 1008,
any Restricted  Subsidiary may create, assume or permit to exist any Funded Debt
in addition to that  permitted by paragraph (a) of this Section 1008, and renew,
extend or replace such Funded Debt,  provided that at the time of such creation,
assumption,  renewal, extension or replacement, and after giving effect thereto,
the  aggregate  principal  amount of such Funded Debt which would  otherwise  be
subject to the foregoing  restriction,  together  with the  aggregate  principal
amount of indebtedness for borrowed money permitted by Subsection (d) of Section
1006 and the aggregate  amount of the fair market value of property  transferred
in  sale-leaseback  transactions and not reacquired at such time as permitted by

SECTION 1009.  Maintenance of Insurance.

     The Company will cause its property and the property of each  Subsidiary to
be insured at all times  against  loss from  damage or  destruction  by fire and
other  risks to the  extent and in such  manner as is  customary  for  companies
comparable in size to the Company and conducting  businesses similar in size and
nature to the businesses carried on by the Company from time to time;  provided,
however,  that the Company and each of its Subsidiaries may adopt (in lieu of or
supplementing  such  insurance)  any  other or  supplemental  plan or  method of
protection against loss, including self-insurance plans, as may be determined by
the  Company to be in the overall  best  interests  of the Company  from time to
time.

SECTION 1010.  Waiver of Certain Covenants.

     The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant
or  condition  set  forth in  Sections  1005 to 1009,  inclusive,  and any other

Exhibit 4.1                             52
<PAGE>

covenant or condition set forth in any  Authorizing  Resolution or  supplemental
indenture  for the benefit of the Holders of the  Securities  or any  particular
Series of  Securities,  if the Holders of not less than a majority in  principal
amount  of the  Securities  at the time  Outstanding  of all  Series  which  are
entitled to the benefits  thereof  (voting as a single class)  shall,  by Act of
such Holders,  either waive such  compliance in such instance or generally waive
compliance  with such covenant or condition,  but no such waiver shall extend to
or affect such covenant or condition  except to the extent so expressly  waived,
and, until such waiver shall become  effective,  the  obligations of the Company
and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall
remain in full force and effect.

                    ARTICLE ELEVEN--REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

SECTION 1101.  Right of Redemption.

     Redeemable  Securities may be redeemed otherwise than through the operation
of the  Sinking  Fund  provided  for in Article  Twelve at the  election  of the
Company at the times, on the conditions and at the Redemption  Prices  specified
therein, in (or pursuant to) the Authorizing  Resolution relating thereto and in
the supplemental  indenture (if any) executed in connection with the issuance of
such  Securities,  any Redemption Price to be accompanied by accrued interest to
the Redemption Date.

SECTION 1102.  Applicability of Article.

     Redemption of  Securities  at the election of the Company or otherwise,  as
permitted or required by any  provision  referred to in Section  1101,  shall be
made in accordance with such provision and this Article.

SECTION 1103.  Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

     The election of the Company to redeem any Securities  shall be evidenced by
a Board  Resolution or set forth in an Officers'  Certificate  which states that
such election has been duly authorized by all requisite  corporate action on the
part of the Company. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of
less than all of the Securities the Company shall, at least 50 days prior to the
Redemption  Date  fixed  by the  Company  (unless  a  shorter  notice  shall  be
satisfactory to the Trustee),  notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of
the principal  amount of Securities of the Series or Issue or the several Series
or Issues, as the case may be, to be redeemed.  In the case of any redemption of
Securities  prior  to the  expiration  of any  restriction  on  such  redemption
provided in the  Securities  or elsewhere in this  Indenture,  the Company shall
furnish the Trustee with an Officers'  Certificate  evidencing  compliance  with
such restriction.

SECTION 1104.  Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed.

     If less than all the  Securities of any Series or Issue are to be redeemed,
the  particular  Securities  of such  Series  or Issue to be  redeemed  shall be
selected not more than 90 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from
the  Outstanding  Securities of such Series or Issue not  previously  called for
redemption,  by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and  appropriate  and
which may provide for the  selection for  redemption  of portions  (equal to the
minimum authorized  denomination of the Series or Issue or any integral multiple
thereof) of the principal  amount of such  Securities of a  denomination  larger
than such minimum denomination. If the Company shall so specify, Securities held
by the  Company  or any  Subsidiary  shall  not be  included  in the  Securities
selected for redemption.

Exhibit 4.1                             53
<PAGE>

     The Trustee shall promptly  notify the Company in writing of the Securities
selected for  redemption  and, in the case of any Security  selected for partial
redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

     For all purposes of this Indenture,  unless the context otherwise requires,
all  provisions  relating to the redemption of Securities  shall relate,  in the
case of any  Securities  redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion
of the principal amount of such Security which has been or is to be redeemed.

SECTION 1105.  Notice of Redemption.

     Notice of redemption  shall be given by first class mail,  postage prepaid,
mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the  Redemption  Date, to
each  Holder of  Securities  to be  redeemed,  at his address  appearing  in the
Security Register.

     All notices of redemption shall state:

         (1)  the Redemption Date,

         (2)  the Redemption Price,

         (3)  if less than all Outstanding Securities of the Series or Issue are
     to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption,
     the principal amount) of the particular Securities to be redeemed,

         (4)  that on the Redemption Date the  Redemption  Price will become due
     and payable upon each such Security,  and that interest thereon shall cease
     to accrue on and after said date,

         (5)  that  the redemption  is for a Sinking  Fund, if such is the case;
     and

         (6)  the place or places  where such  Securities are to be  surrendered
     for payment of the Redemption Price.

     Notice of  redemption  of  Securities to be redeemed at the election of the
Company  shall be given by the  Company  or, at the  Company's  request,  by the
Trustee in the name of and at the expense of the Company.

SECTION 1106.  Deposit of Redemption Price.

     On or prior to any  Redemption  Date,  the Company  shall  deposit with the
Trustee or with a Paying  Agent (or,  if the Company is acting as its own Paying
Agent,  segregate  and hold in trust as provided  in Section  1003) an amount of
money  sufficient to pay the Redemption  Price of, and (except if the Redemption
Date  shall be an  Interest  Payment  Date) any  accrued  interest  on,  all the
Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date.

SECTION 1107.  Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

     Notice of redemption  having been given as aforesaid,  the Securities so to
be  redeemed  shall,  on the  Redemption  Date,  become  due and  payable at the
Redemption  Price thereof and from and after such date (unless the Company shall
default in the  payment  of the  Redemption  Price and  accrued  interest)  such
Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for
redemption  in accordance  with said notice such  Security  shall be paid by the
Company  at  the  Redemption  Price,  together  with  accrued  interest  to  the
Redemption Date; provided,  however,  that installments of interest whose Stated

Exhibit 4.1                             54
<PAGE>

Maturity is on or prior to the  Redemption  Date shall be payable to the Holders
of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such on
the  relevant  Regular or Special  Record Date  according to their terms and the
provisions of Section 308.

     If any Security  called for redemption  shall not be so paid upon surrender
thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid or
duly provided for, bear interest from the  Redemption  Date at the rate borne by
the Security or, in the case of Original  Issue Discount  Securities,  at a rate
equal to the Yield to Maturity thereof.

SECTION 1108.  Securities Redeemed in Part.

     Any Security  which is to be redeemed only in part shall be  surrendered at
the office or agency of the  Company  maintained  for that  purpose  pursuant to
Section 1002 (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 his attorney duly authorized
in writing),  and the Company shall execute and the  Authenticating  Agent shall
authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge,
a new Security or Securities of the same Issue,  of any authorized  denomination
as  requested  by such  Holder in  aggregate  principal  amount  equal to and in
exchange  for  the  unredeemed  portion  of the  principal  of the  Security  so
surrendered;  except that if a Global  Security is so  surrendered,  the Company
shall  execute,  and the Trustee shall  authenticate,  upon Company  Order,  and
deliver to the Depositary for such Global Security without service charge, a new
Global  Security in a  denomination  equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed
portion of the principal amount of the Global Security so surrendered.

                          ARTICLE TWELVE--SINKING FUND

SECTION 1201.  Sinking Fund Payments.

     As and for a Sinking Fund for the  retirement  of Sinking Fund  Securities,
the Company will,  until all such Securities are paid or payment thereof is duly
provided for, deposit in accordance with Section 1106, at such times and subject
to such terms and  conditions  as shall be specified in the  provisions  of such
Securities and the Authorizing  Resolution and  supplemental  indenture (if any)
relating  thereto,  such amounts in cash as shall be required or permitted under
such provisions in order to redeem Securities on the specified  Redemption Dates
at a Redemption Price equal to their principal  amounts,  less in each such case
the amount of any credit  against  such  payment  received by the Company  under
Section 1202.  Each such Sinking Fund payment shall be applied to the redemption
of Securities on the specified Redemption Date as herein provided.

SECTION 1202.  Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

     The Company (1) may deliver  Securities  of the same Issue  (other than any
previously  called for redemption or  theretofore  applied as a credit against a
Sinking Fund payment or as a credit under Section  1007(d)) and (2) may apply as
a credit  Securities  of the same Issue  redeemed at the election of the Company
pursuant to Section  1101 or through the  operation  of the Sinking  Fund in any
period in excess of the minimum  amount  required for such period under  Section
1201 or the  provisions  relating to such Issue  referred to in Section 1201 and
not  theretofore  applied as a credit against a Sinking Fund payment or a credit
under Section  1007(d),  in each case in  satisfaction of all or any part of any

Exhibit 4.1                             55
<PAGE>

Sinking Fund payment  required to be made  pursuant to Section  1201.  Each such
Security  so  delivered  or applied  shall be credited  for such  purpose by the
Trustee at a  Redemption  Price equal to its  principal  amount and the required
amount of such Sinking Fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

SECTION 1203.  Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

     If in any year the  Company  shall elect to redeem in excess of the minimum
principal amount of Securities  required to be redeemed pursuant to Section 1201
or to satisfy  all or any part of any  Sinking  Fund  payment by  delivering  or
crediting  Securities  pursuant to Section 1202,  then at least 60 days prior to
the date on which the Sinking  Fund  payment in  question  shall be due (or such
shorter  period as shall be approved by the Trustee),  the Company shall deliver
to the Trustee an  Officers'  Certificate  specifying  the amount of the Sinking
Fund  payment and the portions  thereof  which are to be satisfied by payment of
cash,  by delivery of Securities  or by crediting  Securities,  and, at least 45
days prior to the Sinking Fund payment date (or such shorter  period as shall be
approved by the Trustee),  will also deliver to the Trustee the Securities to be
so delivered.  Such Officers'  Certificate  shall also state that the Securities
forming the basis of any such credit do not  include any  Securities  which have
been redeemed  through the  operation of the Sinking Fund in the minimum  amount
required  under  Section  1201,  previously  credited  against any Sinking  Fund
payment or credited in accordance with Section 1007(d).  The Trustee shall, upon
the receipt of such  Officers'  Certificate  (or, if it shall not have  received
such an Officers' Certificate at least 60 days prior to the Sinking Fund payment
date,  then following such 60th day),  select the Securities to be redeemed upon
the next Sinking Fund payment date, in the manner specified in Section 1104, and
cause  notice of the  redemption  thereof  to be given in the name of and at the
expense of the  Company in the manner  provided  in Section  1105.  Such  notice
having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the
terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1107 and 1108.

              ARTICLE THIRTEEN--DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

SECTION 1301.  Defeasance.

     Upon satisfaction of the applicable  conditions  specified in Section 1303,
the Company shall be discharged from all of its obligations under the Securities
and  under  this  Indenture  with  respect  to the  Securities,  except  for its
obligations  under  Sections  304, 306, 307, 607, 1002 and 1003 and this Article
Thirteen (referred to below as a "Defeasance").

SECTION 1302.  Covenant Defeasance.

     Upon satisfaction of the applicable  conditions  specified in Section 1303,
the Company  shall be released  from its  obligations  under  Article  Eight and
Sections 1005 through 1009,  inclusive,  with respect to the  Securities and the
occurrence  of an event  specified in Section  501(4)  (with  respect to Article
Eight or any of said Sections 1005 through 1009,  inclusive) shall not be deemed
to be an Event of Default with respect to the Securities (referred to below as a
"Covenant Defeasance"). Such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the
Securities,  the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no  liability in
respect of any term,  condition  or  limitation  set forth in any such  Section,
whether  directly or indirectly by reason of any reference in this  Indenture or
in any  other  document  to any such  Section,  and that  the  Securities  shall
thereafter be deemed not to be  Outstanding  for the purposes of any  direction,

Exhibit 4.1                             56
<PAGE>

waiver,  consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the  consequences  of any
thereof) in  connection  with the  provisions of Article Eight and Sections 1005
through 1009,  inclusive,  but shall continue to be deemed  Outstanding  for all
other purposes hereunder.

SECTION 1303.  Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

     The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 1301
or Section 1302 to the Securities of any Series:

         (1) The  Company  shall  irrevocably  have  deposited  or  caused to be
     deposited with the Trustee (which term, for purposes of this Article, shall
     also refer to another  trustee  satisfying the  requirements of Section 609
     who shall agree to comply with the  applicable  provisions of this Article)
     in trust for the Holders of such Securities (A) money in an amount,  or (B)
     U.S.  Government   Obligations  which  through  the  scheduled  payment  of
     principal and interest in respect  thereof in accordance  with their terms,
     and with no  further  reinvestment,  will  provide,  not later than one day
     before  the  due  date  of  any  payment,  money  in an  amount,  or  (C) a
     combination thereof,  sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized
     firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification
     thereof  delivered to the Trustee,  to pay and  discharge  the principal of
     (and  premium,  if any) and  interest on such  Securities  at or before the
     Stated Maturity thereof (and to redeem any Sinking Fund Securities required
     to be redeemed prior to such payment and discharge) in accordance with this
     Indenture and such Securities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  in the case
     of any  Redeemable  Securities  which  are to be  redeemed  prior  to their
     respective  Stated  Maturities,  no deposit under this  paragraph  shall be
     deemed  sufficient to pay and discharge such  Securities as aforesaid until
     proper notice of such  redemption  shall have been given in accordance with
     Article XI of this  Indenture or irrevocable  instructions  shall have been
     given to the Trustee to give such notice.

         (2) The  Company  shall  have  delivered  to the  Trustee an Opinion of
     Counsel stating that the Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain
     or loss for  Federal  income  tax  purposes  as a result  of such  deposit,
     Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax
     on the same amount,  in the same manner and at the same times as would have
     been the case if such deposit,  Defeasance or Covenant  Defeasance  had not
     occurred.

         (3) The  Company  shall have  delivered  to the  Trustee  an  Officers'
     Certificate  to the  effect  that such  Securities,  if then  listed on any
     securities exchange, will not be delisted as a result of such deposit.

         (4) No Event of Default or event  which with notice or lapse of time or
     both would become an Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall
     have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or,  insofar as
     any event described in Section 501(5) or (6), at any time prior to the 91st
     day after such deposit.

         (5) Such  deposit,  Defeasance  or  discharge  shall  not  result  in a
     violation  of, or  constitute  a default  under,  any  other  agreement  or
     instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.

         (6) Such  Defeasance  or  Covenant  Defeasance  shall not result in the
     trust  arising  from such deposit  constituting  an  investment  company as
     defined in the  Investment  Company Act of 1940, as amended,  or such trust
     shall be qualified under such act or exempt from regulation thereunder.

Exhibit 4.1                             57
<PAGE>

         (7) Such Defeasance or Covenant  Defeasance shall not cause the Trustee
     to have a conflicting interest under the TIA with respect to any Securities
     of the Company or any guarantor.

         (8) The Company  shall have  delivered  to the Trustee (i) an Officers'
     Certificate stating that all conditions  precedent provided for relating to
     such Defeasance,  discharge or deposit have been complied with, and (ii) an
     Opinion of Counsel  stating  that all  conditions  precedent  provided  for
     relating to such Defeasance, discharge or deposit have been complied with.

SECTION 1304.  Application of Funds.

     Subject to the  provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money
and U.S. Government  Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with
the  Trustee  pursuant  to  Section  1303 in  respect  of one or more  Series of
Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with
the provisions of such  Securities and this  Indenture,  to the payment,  either
directly or through any Paying Agent  (including  the Company  acting as its own
Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine,  to the Holders of such  Securities,
of all sums due and to become  due  thereon  in  respect  of  principal  and any
premium and  interest,  but such money need not be  segregated  from other funds
except to the extent required by law.

     The  Company  shall pay (in  addition  to any U.S.  Government  Obligations
deposited pursuant to Section 1303), and indemnify the Trustee against, any tax,
fee  or  other  charge  imposed  on or  assessed  against  the  U.S.  Government
Obligations  deposited  pursuant to Section 1303 or the  principal  and interest
received in respect  thereof  other than any such tax, fee or other charge which
by law is for the  account  of the  Holders  of the  Securities  for which  such
deposit is made.

     Anything in this  Article  Thirteen to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  the
Trustee  shall  deliver  or pay to the  Company  from time to time upon  Company
Request  any money or U.S.  Government  Obligations  held by it as  provided  in
Section  1303  which,  in  the  opinion  of  a  nationally  recognized  firm  of
independent  public  accountants  expressed in a written  certification  thereof
delivered to the Trustee,  are in excess of the amount  thereof which would then
be required  to be  deposited  to effect an  equivalent  Defeasance  or Covenant
Defeasance.

SECTION 1305.  Reinstatement.

the purpose of determining the Securityholders entitled to give their consent or
take any other  action  described  above or  required or  permitted  to be taken

Securityholders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only
those  Persons,  shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent
previously  given or take any such action,  whether or not such Persons continue
to be  Holders  after  such  record  date.  No such  consent  shall  be valid or
effective for more than 120 days after such record date.

provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon,  given or furnished to,
or filed with,

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

         (2) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for

SECTION 106.  Notices to Holders; Waiver.

     Where this  Indenture  provides  for  notice to Holders of any event,  such
notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly  provided)
if in writing and mailed,  first-class  postage prepaid, to each Holder affected
by such event, at his address as it appears on the Security Register,  not later
than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the
giving of such  notice.  In any case  where  notice to Holders is given by mail,
neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed,
to any  particular  Holder  shall  affect the  sufficiency  of such  notice with
respect  to other  Holders.  Where  this  Indenture  provides  for notice in any
manner,  such notice may be waived in writing by the Person  entitled to receive
such  notice,  either  before or after the event,  and such waiver  shall be the

Exhibit 4.2                             10
<PAGE>

equivalent of such notice.  Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the
Trustee,  but such filing shall not be a condition  precedent to the validity of
any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

     In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of
any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such
notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall  constitute
a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

invalid, illegal or unenforceable,  the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

SECTION 111.  Benefits of Indenture.

     Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities,  express or implied,  shall
give  to any  Person,  other  than  the  parties  hereto  and  their  successors

succeeding  Business  Day with  the  same  force  and  effect  as if made on the
Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, at the Stated Maturity, or on the date
on which the Defaulted  Interest is proposed to be paid,  and no interest  shall
accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date

Currencies.

     Whenever  any action or Act is to be taken  hereunder by the Holders of two
or more Series or Issues of  Securities  denominated  in  different  currencies,
then, for the purposes of determining the principal amount of Securities held by
such Holders, the aggregate principal amount of the Securities  denominated in a
currency  other than United States  dollars shall be deemed to be that amount of
United States  dollars that could be obtained for such  principal  amount on the
basis of the spot  rate of  exchange  for such  currency  as  determined  by the
Company or by an authorized  exchange rate agent and evidenced to the Trustee by
an Officers'  Certificate as of the date the taking of such action or Act by the
Holders of the  requisite  percentage in principal  amount of the  Securities is
evidenced to the Trustee. An exchange rate agent may be authorized in advance or

faith.

SECTION 116.  Payment to be in Proper Currency.

     Each reference in any Security,  or in the Authorizing  Resolution relating

     determined  with  reference  to an index based on a currency or  currencies
     other  than that in which the  Securities  are  stated to be  payable,  the
     manner in which such amounts shall be determined; and

         (14) Any  other  terms  of the  Securities  of such  Series  or  Issue;
     provided,  that such other terms shall not be inconsistent with any express
     terms of this  Indenture or in conflict with any express terms of any other
     Series or Issue of Securities which shall be issued and Outstanding.

SECTION 302.  Denominations.

     Unless otherwise provided by Section 301 in connection with the issuance of
Global Securities,  the Securities of each Series or Issue may be issued only in
registered  form  without  coupons in  denominations  of $1,000 and any integral
multiple  thereof,  or in  such  other  currencies  or  denominations  as may be
specified  in, or  pursuant  to,  the  Authorizing  Resolution  or  supplemental
indenture relating to the Series.

SECTION 303.  Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

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

Exhibit 4.2                             19
<PAGE>

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

     At any time and from time to time after the  execution and delivery of this
Indenture,  the  Company may deliver  Securities  of any Series  executed by the
Company  to the  Authenticating  Agent,  together  with a Company  Order for the
authentication  and delivery of such  Securities.  The Company Order may provide
that the Securities  which are the subject  thereof shall be  authenticated  and
delivered  by the  Authenticating  Agent upon the  telephonic,  written or other
order of Persons  designated  in the Company  Order,  and that such  Persons are
authorized to specify the terms and conditions of such Securities, to the extent
permitted by the  Authorizing  Resolution  or  supplemental  indenture  relating
thereto.  The Trustee shall execute and deliver the  supplemental  indenture (if
any) and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver said Securities
as specified in such Company Order; provided,  that, prior to authentication and
delivery  of  the  first   Securities  of  any  Series,   the  Trustee  and  the
Authenticating Agent shall have received:

         (1) A copy of the Authorizing Resolution;

         (2) A supplemental indenture in respect of the  issuance of the Series,
     if  called  for by the  terms  of the  Authorizing  Resolution  in  respect
     thereof, executed on behalf of the Company;

         (3) An Officers'  Certificate to the effect that the Securities of such
     Series comply or will comply with the  requirements  of this  Indenture and
     the said Authorizing Resolution and supplemental indenture (if any);

         (4) An Opinion of Counsel (a) to the effect that (i) the  Securities of
     such Series, the Authorizing  Resolution and the supplemental indenture (if
     any) relating  thereto comply or will comply with the  requirements of this
     Indenture and (ii) the Securities of such Series,  when  authenticated  and
     delivered by the  Authenticating  Agent in accordance with the said Company
     Order,  will  constitute  valid and binding  obligations of the Company and
     enforceable in accordance  with their terms,  subject to (A) bankruptcy and
     other laws affecting  creditors' rights generally as in effect from time to
     time, (B) limitations of generally  applicable equitable principles and (C)
     other  exceptions  acceptable  to the  Trustee  and  its  counsel;  and (b)
     relating  to such  other  matters as may  reasonably  be  requested  by the
     Trustee or its counsel; and

         (5)  If  the  Securities  to be  issued  are  Original  Issue  Discount
     Securities,  an Officers'  Certificate  setting forth the Yield to Maturity
     for the Securities or other  information  sufficient to compute amounts due
     on  acceleration,  or specifying the manner in which such amounts are to be
     determined,  provided  that such Yield to Maturity  and other facts are not
     specified in the form of the Securities.

     Subject to Section 601  hereof,  the  Authenticating  Agent and the Trustee
shall be fully  protected  in  relying  upon the  documents  delivered  to it as
provided above in connection with the issuance of any Series of Securities.

Exhibit 4.2                             20
<PAGE>

     The  Authenticating  Agent shall have the right to decline to  authenticate
and deliver any Securities under this Section if the Authenticating Agent, being
advised by counsel,  determines that such action may not lawfully be taken or if
the  Authenticating  Agent  in good  faith  by a  committee  of its  Responsible
Officers shall determine that such action would expose the Authenticating  Agent
to liability to Holders of previously issued and Outstanding Securities.

     Each  Security  shall  be  dated  the  date  of its  authentication  unless
otherwise specified in the Authorizing Resolution relating thereto.

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

SECTION 304.  Temporary Securities.

     Pending the  preparation  of definitive  Securities of any Series or Issue,
the Company may execute,  and upon compliance  with the  requirements of Section
303  the  Authenticating   Agent  shall  authenticate  and  deliver,   temporary
Securities,  which may be printed,  lithographed,  typewritten,  photocopied  or
otherwise  produced,  in any  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 may, consistently
herewith, be determined by the officers executing such Securities,  as evidenced
by their execution of such Securities.

     If  temporary  Securities  of any Series or Issue are  issued,  the Company
shall  thereafter  cause  definitive  Securities  for such Series or Issue 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  provided for that purpose,  without  charge to the Holder.  Upon
surrender for  cancellation of any one or more temporary  Securities the Company
shall execute and the  Authenticating  Agent shall  authenticate  and deliver in
exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized
denominations.  Until  so  exchanged,  the  temporary  Securities  shall  in all
respects be entitled to the same  benefits  under this  Indenture as  definitive
Securities.

SECTION 305.  Global Securities

     If the Company shall establish  pursuant to Section 301 that the Securities
of a  Series  are to be  issued  in  whole or in part in the form of one or more
Global  Securities,  then the Company  shall execute and the Trustee  shall,  in
accordance  with this Section and the Company Order with respect to such Series,
authenticate and deliver one or more Global Securities in temporary or permanent
form that (i) shall  represent and shall be denominated  in an aggregate  amount
equal to the aggregate  principal  amount of the Outstanding  Securities of such
Series  to be  represented  by one or more  Global  Securities,  (ii)  shall  be
registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global  Security of Securities
or the nominee of such  Depositary,  (iii) shall be  delivered by the Trustee to
such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary's instruction and (iv) shall bear
a legend  substantially  to the following effect (or such other legend as may be
prescribed by the Depositary):  "Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in

Exhibit 4.2                             21
<PAGE>

part for  Securities in  definitive  registered  form,  this Security may not be
transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to the nominee of the Depositary
or by a nominee of the  Depositary to the  Depositary or another  nominee of the
Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or
a nominee of such successor Depositary."

     Each Depositary designated pursuant to Section 301 for a Global Security in
registered  form must, at the time of its  designation and at all times while it
serves as Depositary, be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and
any other applicable statute or regulation.

     Beneficial  owners of part or all of a Global  Security shall be subject to
the rules of the  Depositary  as in effect from time to time.  The Company,  the
Trustee and the Paying Agent shall not be responsible  for any acts or omissions
of the Depositary, for any Depositary records of beneficial interests or for any
transactions between the Depositary and beneficial owners.

     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, unless and until it is
exchanged  in whole or in part  for  Securities  in  definitive  form,  a Global
Security  representing all or a portion of the Securities of a Series may not be
transferred  except as a whole by the Depositary for such Series or to a nominee
of such  Depositary  or by a nominee of such  Depositary  to such  Depositary or
another  nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to
a  successor  Depositary  for  such  Series  or  a  nominee  of  such  successor
Depositary.

     If at any time the Depositary  for any Securities of a Series  notifies the
Company  that it is  unwilling  or  unable to  continue  as  Depositary  for the
Securities of such Series or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities of
such Series shall no longer be eligible  under  Section  305, the Company  shall
appoint a successor  Depositary  eligible under Section 305, with respect to the
Securities of such Series. If a successor  Depositary eligible under Section 305
for the Securities of such Series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days
after the Company  receives such notice or becomes aware of such  ineligibility,
the Company's  election that the Securities of such Series be represented by one
or more  Global  Securities  shall no longer be  effective  with  respect to the
Securities of such Series and the Company  shall  execute and the Trustee,  upon
receipt of a Company  Order for the  authentication  and delivery of  definitive
Securities of such Series,  shall  authenticate and deliver,  Securities of such
Series  in  definitive  form  in an  aggregate  principal  amount  equal  to the
principal amount of the Global Security or Securities  representing  such Series
in exchange for such Global Security or Securities.

     The Company may at any time and in its sole  discretion  determine that the
Securities  of any Series  issued in the form of one or more  Global  Securities
shall no longer be  represented by such Global  Security or Securities.  In such
event the Company  shall  execute,  and the  Trustee,  upon receipt of a Company
Order for the  authentication  and  delivery of  definitive  Securities  of such
Series, shall authenticate and deliver,  Securities of such Series in definitive
form and in an aggregate  principal  amount equal to the principal amount of the
Global  Security or  Securities  representing  such Series in exchange  for such
Global Security or Securities.

     If  specified  by the Company  pursuant  to Section  301 with  respect to a
Series of Securities  represented by a Global Security,  the Depositary for such
Global  Securities may surrender a Global Security for such Series of Securities
in exchange in whole or in part for Securities of such Series in definitive form
on such terms as are acceptable to the Company and such  Depositary.  Thereupon,

Exhibit 4.2                             22
<PAGE>

the Company  shall  execute,  and the Trustee  shall  authenticate  and deliver,
without service charge:

         (i) to each  Person  specified  by such  Depositary  a new  Security or
     Securities of the same Series, of any authorized  denomination as requested
     by such Person in aggregate  principal  amount equal to and in exchange for
     such Person's beneficial interest in the Global Security; and

         (ii) to such Depositary a new Global  Security in a denomination  equal
     to the difference,  if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered
     Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of Securities  delivered
     pursuant to clause (i) above.

     In any exchange provided for in this Section,  the Company will execute and
the Trustee will  authenticate and deliver  Securities in definitive  registered
form in authorized denominations.

     Upon the  exchange  of a  Global  Security  for  Securities  in  definitive
registered  form,  such Global  Security shall be cancelled by the Trustee or an
agent of the Company or the  Trustee.  The  Trustee or such agent shall  deliver
such  Securities to or as directed by the Persons in whose names such Securities
are so registered.

SECTION 306.  Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

     The  Company  shall  cause to be kept a register  at one of its  offices or
agencies  maintained  pursuant  to  Section  1002  (herein  referred  to as  the
"Security  Register") in which,  subject to such  reasonable  regulations as the
Company  may  prescribe,  the Company  shall  provide  for the  registration  of
Securities and the  registration  of transfers of Securities.  At all reasonable
times the Security  Register  shall be open for  inspection by the Trustee.  The
Security Register shall be kept at the said office or agency, and said office or
agency is hereby  initially  appointed  "Security  Registrar" for the purpose of
registering  Securities and transfers of Securities as herein  provided.  If the
Security  Registrar  shall not be the  Authenticating  Agent in  respect  of any
Series,  the Company  shall  promptly  notify the  Security  Registrar as to the
amounts and terms of each  Security of such Series which shall be  authenticated
and delivered  hereunder,  and as to the names in which such Securities shall be
registered.

     Upon surrender for  registration  of transfer of any Security at the office
or agency of the Company  provided for that purpose,  the Company shall execute,
and the Authenticating  Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated  transferee or  transferees,  one or more new  Securities of the same
Issue and Stated Maturity of a like aggregate principal amount.

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

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

     No  service  charge  shall  be made for any  registration  of  transfer  or
exchange of Securities,  but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient

Exhibit 4.2                             23
<PAGE>

to cover any tax or other governmental  charge that may be imposed in connection
with any  registration  of  transfer  or  exchange  of  Securities,  other  than
exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 906 or 1108 not involving any transfer.

     The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or
exchange any Security of any Series during a period  beginning at the opening of
the day which is 15  Business  Days before the day of the mailing of a notice of
redemption of Securities of such Series  selected for  redemption  under Section
1104 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing,  or (ii) to
register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for  redemption in
whole or in part,  except,  in the case of any  Security to be redeemed in part,
the portion thereof not to be redeemed.

     At the option of the Holder (other than a Global  Security),  Securities of
any  Issue  may be  exchanged  for  other  Securities  of the same  Issue of any
authorized  denominations,  of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender
of the  Securities  to be  exchanged  at such  office or  agency.  Whenever  any
Securities are so surrendered for exchange,  the Company shall execute,  and the
Authenticating  Agent shall  authenticate and deliver,  the Securities which the
Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

SECTION 307.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

     If (i) any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, or the Company
and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction,  loss
or theft of any  Security,  and (ii) 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 request the  Authenticating  Agent shall  authenticate  and
deliver, in exchange for, or in lieu of, any such mutilated,  destroyed, lost or
stolen  Security,  a new  Security of like tenor,  Issue and  principal  amount,
bearing  a  number  not  assigned  to any  Security  of  the  same  Series  then
outstanding.

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

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

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

     The  provisions of this Section are  exclusive  and (to the extent  lawful)
shall preclude all other rights and remedies with respect to the  replacement or
payment of mutilated,  destroyed,  lost or stolen  Securities.  If a Security is
replaced  pursuant to Section 307, it shall cease to be  Outstanding  unless the

Exhibit 4.2                             24
<PAGE>

Company receives proof  satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by
a protected purchaser, as defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code.

SECTION 308.  Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

     Interest which is payable,  and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on
any Interest Payment Date, on the Securities of any Issue,  shall be paid to the
Persons in whose names the  Securities (or one or more  Predecessor  Securities)
are  registered  at the close of business  on the  Regular  Record Date for such
interest.

     Any  interest on any  Security  of any Issue  which is payable,  but is not
punctually  paid or duly  provided for, on any Interest  Payment Date,  together
with any interest thereon (herein called  "Defaulted  Interest") shall forthwith
cease to be payable to the Holder,  as such, on the Regular Record Date for such
payment; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election
in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below:

         (1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted  Interest to
     the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective  Predecessor
     Securities)  are  registered  at the close of business on a Special  Record
     Date for the payment of such  Defaulted  Interest,  which shall be fixed in
     the  following  manner.  The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of
     the amount of Defaulted  Interest  proposed to be paid on each  Security of
     such Issue and the date of the proposed  payment,  and at the same time the
     Company  shall  deposit  with the  Trustee an amount of money  equal to the
     aggregate  amount of such Defaulted  Interest  proposed to be paid or shall
     make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the
     date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust
     for the  benefit of the  Persons  entitled to such amount 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 of such Issue at his address as it appears in
     the Security  Register  not less than 10 days prior to such Special  Record
     Date.  Notice of the proposed  payment of such  Defaulted  Interest and the
     Special  Record  Date  therefor  having  been  mailed  as  aforesaid,  such
     Defaulted  Interest  shall be paid to the  Persons in whose  names the said
     Securities (or their respective  Predecessor  Securities) are registered 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 in any other
     lawful manner not  inconsistent  with the  requirements  of any  securities
     exchange on which the  Securities  of such  Series 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 payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

     Subject  to  the  foregoing  provisions  of  this  Section,  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.

Exhibit 4.2                             25
<PAGE>

SECTION 309.  Persons Deemed Owners.

     Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Security,  the
Company,  the  Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name any Security is  registered  as the owner of such  Security
for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium,  if any), and
(subject to Section 308) interest on, such  Security and for all other  purposes
whatsoever,  whether or not such  Security be overdue,  and neither the Company,
the Trustee  nor any agent of the  Company or the  Trustee  shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.

SECTION 310.  Cancellation.

     All  Securities  surrendered  for  payment,  redemption,   registration  of
transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee,
be delivered to the Trustee.  All  Securities  so delivered  and any  Securities
surrendered  directly  to the  Trustee  for any such  purpose  shall be promptly
cancelled by the Trustee and all Securities of any Series or Issue  delivered to
the Trustee  for credit  against  any  Sinking  Fund  payment in respect of such
Series or Issue  pursuant  to Section  1202 shall be promptly  cancelled  by the
Trustee. 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. 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 and  certification  of their
destruction delivered to the Company unless by a Company Order the Company shall
direct that cancelled Securities be returned to it.

                    ARTICLE FOUR--SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

SECTION 401.  Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

     This  Indenture  shall  cease to be of  further  effect  (except  as to any
surviving  rights of registration  of transfer or exchange of Securities  herein
expressly  provided  for,  and except as otherwise  provided in the  Authorizing
Resolution in respect of any Series),  and the Trustee,  on demand of and at the
expense  of  the  Company,   shall  execute  proper  instruments   acknowledging

     All money and U.S.  Governmental  Obligations  deposited  with the  Trustee
pursuant  to  Section  401 (or into  which  such  money  and  U.S.  Governmental
Obligations  are  reinvested)  shall  be held in trust  and  applied  by it,  in
accordance  with the  provisions of the Securities  and this  Indenture,  to the
payment,  either  directly or through any Paying  Agent  (including  the Company
acting as its own Paying  Agent) as the  Trustee may  determine,  to the Persons
entitled  thereto,  of the  principal  (and  premium,  if any) and  interest for
payment of which such money has been deposited with the Trustee;  but such money
and U.S. Governmental Obligations need not be segregated from other funds except

SECTION 502.  Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

     If any one or more of the Events of Default  described  in clauses (1), (2)
or (3) of Section 501 with  respect to  Securities  of any Series or Issue shall

Exhibit 4.2                             28
<PAGE>

happen,  then,  and in each and every such case,  during the  continuance of any
such Event of Default,  either the Trustee, by notice in writing to the Company,
or the  Holders  of at least 25% in  principal  amount of such  Securities  then
Outstanding, by notice in writing to the Company and to the Trustee, may declare
the  principal  amount (or,  if such  Securities  are  Original  Issue  Discount
Securities,  such  portion  of the  principal  amount as may then be  payable on
acceleration  as  provided  in the terms  thereof)  of and  accrued  and  unpaid
interest on all such Securities  then  Outstanding (if not then due and payable)
to be immediately due and payable,  and upon any such declaration the same shall
become and be immediately due and payable,  anything in this Indenture or in the
Securities contained to the contrary notwithstanding.  If any one or more of the
Events of Default described in clause (4) of Section 501 shall happen, then, and
in each and  every  such  case,  during  the  continuance  of any such  Event of
Default, either the Trustee, by notice in writing to the Company, or the Holders
of at least  25% in  principal  amount  of the  Securities  of all  Issues  then
Outstanding  (or,  if  such  default  is not  applicable  to all  Issues  of the
Securities,  the Holders of at least 25% in principal  amount of the Outstanding
Securities  of all Issues to which it is  applicable)  (in each case voting as a
single  class),  by notice in writing to the  Company  and to the  Trustee,  may
declare  the  principal  amount (or,  if the  Securities  of any such Issues are
Original Issue Discount Securities,  such portion of the principal amount as may
then be payable on  acceleration  as provided in the terms of that Issue) of and
accrued and unpaid interest on all the Securities (or all the Securities of such
Issues,  if such default is not applicable to all Issues of the Securities) then
Outstanding (if not then due and payable) to be immediately due and payable, and
upon any such  declaration  the same  shall  become and be  immediately  due and
payable,  anything  in this  Indenture  or in the  Securities  contained  to the
contrary notwithstanding.  If any one or more of the Events of Default described
in clauses (5) or (6) of Section 501 shall happen,  then,  and in each and every
such case,  during the  continuance  of any such  Event of  Default,  either the
Trustee,  by notice in writing to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in
principal  amount of all the  Securities  then  Outstanding  (voting as a single
class), by notice in writing to the Company and to the Trustee,  may declare the
principal amount (or, if any Securities are Original Issue Discount  Securities,
such portion of the principal  amount as may then be payable on  acceleration as
provided in the terms  thereof)  of and  accrued and unpaid  interest on all the
Securities then Outstanding (if not then due and payable), to be immediately due
and  payable,  and upon any  such  declaration  the  same  shall  become  and be
immediately  due and payable,  anything in this  Indenture or in the  Securities
contained to the contrary notwithstanding.

     At any time after such a  declaration  of  acceleration  has been made with
respect to any  Securities  and before a judgment  or decree for  payment of the
money due has been  obtained  by the  Trustee  as  hereinafter  in this  Article
provided,  the  Holders of a majority  in  principal  amount of such  Securities
Outstanding (voting as a single class), by written notice to the Company and the
Trustee,  may rescind and annul such  declaration  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 principal or
interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration.

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

SECTION 503.  Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

     The Company covenants that if

Exhibit 4.2                             29
<PAGE>

         (1)  default is made in the payment of any  installment  of interest on
     any Security  when such  interest  becomes due and payable and such default
     continues  for the period of grace,  if any,  provided  for with respect to
     such payment, or

         (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium,  if
     any, on) any Security at its  Maturity and such default  continues  for the
     period of grace, if any, provided for with respect to such payment,

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee,  pay to it, for the benefit of the
Holders of all such  Securities,  the whole  amount then due and payable on such
Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest,  with interest,  to
the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,  upon the overdue  principal
(and premium,  if any) and installments of interest from the due date thereof at
the rate borne by such  Securities  or, in the case of Original  Issue  Discount
Securities,  at a rate equal to the Yield to Maturity thereof,  and, in addition
thereto,  such  further  amount  as shall be  sufficient  to cover the costs and
expenses  of  collection,  including  the  reasonable  compensation,   expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

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

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

SECTION 504.  Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

     In case  of the  pendency  of any  receivership,  insolvency,  liquidation,
bankruptcy,  reorganization,   arrangement,  adjustment,  composition  or  other
judicial  proceeding  relative  to the  Company  or any other  obligor  upon the
Securities  or the  property of the  Company or of such other  obligor or its or
their  creditors,  the Trustee  (irrespective  of whether the  principal  of the
Securities shall then be due and payable as therein  expressed or by declaration
or otherwise and  irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand
on the  Company  for the  payment of overdue  principal  or  interest)  shall be
entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

         (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole  amount (or, in the case of
     Original Issue Discount  Securities,  such portion of the principal  amount
     thereof as shall then be provable in  bankruptcy  as specified  therein) of
     principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid in respect of
     the  Securities  and to file  such  other  papers  or  documents  as may be
     necessary  or  advisable  in  order  to  have  the  claims  of the  Trustee
     (including   any  claim   for  the   reasonable   compensation,   expenses,
     disbursements  and advances of the Trustee,  its agents and counsel) and of
     the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

Exhibit 4.2                             30
<PAGE>

         (ii)     to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
     deliverable  on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any receiver,  liquidator,  assignee, trustee,  custodian,  sequestrator (or
other similar official) in any such judicial  proceeding is hereby authorized by
each  Holder to make such  payments  to the  Trustee,  and in the event that the
Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to
pay to the  Trustee  any  amount  due to it  for  the  reasonable  compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and
any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607.

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

SECTION 505.  Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.

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

SECTION 506.  Application of Money Collected.

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

         FIRST: To the payment  of all  amounts due to the Trustee under Section
     607;

         SECOND:  In case the  principal of the  Securities  in respect of which
     moneys  have  been  collected  shall  not have  become  and be then due and
     payable,  to the  payment of interest  on the  Securities  of such Issue in
     default in the order of the maturity of the  installments of such interest,
     with  interest (to the extent that  payment of such  interest is lawful and
     such  interest  has  been  collected  by  the  Trustee)  upon  the  overdue
     installments  of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest or Yield
     to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities)  applicable
     to such  Securities,  such  payments  to be  made  ratably  to the  persons
     entitled thereto, without discrimination or preference;

         THIRD:  In case the  principal  of the  Securities  in respect of which
     moneys  have been  collected  shall  have  become and shall be then due and
     payable,  to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon all
     the  Securities  of such Issue for  principal  and  interest,  with (to the
     extent that payment of such  interest is lawful and such  interest has been
     collected by the Trustee)  interest  upon the overdue  principal,  and upon
     overdue  installments  of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest
     or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original  Issue  Discount  Securities)

Exhibit 4.2                             31
<PAGE>

     applicable to the  Securities of such Issue;  and in case such moneys shall
     be  insufficient to pay in full the whole amount so due and unpaid upon the
     Securities  of such  Issue,  then to the  payment  of  such  principal  and
     interest,  without preference or priority of principal over interest, or of
     interest over  principal,  or of any installment of interest over any other
     installment  of  interest,  or of any Security of such Issue over any other
     Security of such Issue,  ratably to the  aggregate  of such  principal  and
     accrued and unpaid interest.

         FOURTH: To the Company.

SECTION 507.  Limitation on Suits.

     No  Holder  of any  Securities  shall  have  any  right  to  institute  any
proceeding,  judicial  or  otherwise,  with  respect  to this  Indenture  or the
Securities,  or for the  appointment of a receiver or trustee,  or for any other
remedy hereunder, unless

         (1)  the Trustee shall have received written notice from such Holder of
     a continuing  Event of Default in respect of such Securities;

         (2)  the Trustee shall have received a written request from the Holders
     of not less than 25% in principal  amount of the Outstanding  Securities of
     the Issue or Series in respect of which the Event of Default  has  occurred
     to  institute  proceedings  in  respect of such Event of Default in its own
     name as Trustee hereunder;

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

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

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

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

SECTION 508.  Unconditional  Right of Holders to Receive Principal,  Premium and
Interest.

     Notwithstanding  any other provision in this  Indenture,  the Holder of any
Security shall have the absolute and  unconditional  right to receive payment of
the principal of (and premium,  if any) and (subject to Section 308) interest on
such Security on the  respective  Stated  Maturities  expressed in such Security
(or, in the case of redemption,  on the  Redemption  Date) and to institute suit
for the  enforcement  of any such payment,  and such right shall not be impaired
without the consent of such Holder.

Exhibit 4.2                             32
<PAGE>

SECTION 509.  Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

     If the Trustee or any Holder has  instituted  any proceeding to enforce any
right or remedy under this Indenture and such  proceeding has been  discontinued
or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined  adversely to the Trustee or
to such  Holder,  then and in every such case the  Company,  the Trustee and the
Holders shall,  subject to any  determination  in such  proceeding,  be restored
severally and respectively to their former positions  hereunder,  and thereafter
all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall  continue as though
no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 510.  Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

     No right or remedy herein  conferred  upon or reserved to the Trustee or to
the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy,  and every
right and remedy shall,  to the extent  permitted by law, be  cumulative  and in
addition to every other right and remedy  given  hereunder  or now or  hereafter
existing at law or in equity or  otherwise.  The  assertion or employment of any
right or remedy  hereunder,  or  otherwise,  shall not  prevent  the  concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 511.  Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

     No delay or  omission  of the  Trustee or of any Holder of any  Security to
exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any
such right or remedy or  constitute  a waiver of any such Event of Default or an
acquiescence therein.  Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to
the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised  from time to time,  and as often
as may be deemed  expedient,  by the Trustee or by the Holders,  as the case may
be.

SECTION 512.  Control by Holders.

     The  Holders  of not  less  than a  majority  in  principal  amount  of the
Outstanding  Securities of any Series  (voting as a single class) shall have the
right to direct the time,  method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy  available to the Trustee or exercising  any trust or power  conferred on
the Trustee in respect of the Securities of such Series, provided that

         (1)  such direction  shall not be in  conflict  with any rule of law or
     with this  Indenture  or unduly  prejudicial  to the  rights of  Holders of
     Securities  of all Series not joining in such  direction or, in the opinion
     of the Trustee, involve the Trustee in personal liability, and

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

SECTION 513.  Waiver of Past Defaults.

     The  Holders  of not  less  than a  majority  in  principal  amount  of the
Outstanding Securities of all Series affected thereby (voting as a single class)
may on behalf  of the  Holders  of all such  Securities  waive any past  default
hereunder and its consequences, except a default

         (1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
     on any Security, or

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

Exhibit 4.2                             33
<PAGE>

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

SECTION 514.  Undertaking for Costs.

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

SECTION 515.  Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.

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

SECTION 516.  Exemption from Individual Liability.

     No recourse  under or upon any  obligation,  covenant or  agreement of this
Indenture,  or of any  Security,  or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in
respect thereof,  shall be had against any incorporator,  stockholder,  officer,
director or employee, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any
successor Person,  either directly or through the Company,  whether by virtue of
any  constitution,  statute  or  rule  of  law,  or by  the  enforcement  of any

authorized,  or under or by reason of the  obligations,  covenants or agreements
contained in this  Indenture or in any of the  Securities or implied  therefrom;
and that any and all such personal liability,  either at common law or in equity

SECTION 601.  Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

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

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

         (2)  in  the  absence  of  bad  faith  on its  part,  the  Trustee  may
     conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of
     the opinions expressed therein,  upon certificates or opinions furnished to
     the Trustee and conforming to the  requirements of this  Indenture;  but in
     the case of any  such  certificates  or  opinions  which by any  provisions
     hereof are  specifically  required  to be  furnished  to the  Trustee,  the
     Trustee  shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine  whether or
     not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

     (b) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee
shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and
use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise,  as a prudent man would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

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

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

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

         (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or
     omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of
     the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
     of all Series (voting as a single class)  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; and

         (4) no provision of this Indenture  shall require the Trustee to expend
     or risk its own funds or  otherwise  incur any  financial  liability in the
     performance  of any of its duties  hereunder,  or in the exercise of any of
     its rights or powers,  if it shall have  reasonable  grounds for  believing
     that  repayment  of such funds or adequate  indemnity  against such risk or
     liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Exhibit 4.2                             35

protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

     Within 90 days after the occurrence of any default  hereunder in respect of
any Issue of  Securities,  the Trustee shall  transmit by mail to all Holders of
the  Securities  of such  Issue,  as their  names  and  addresses  appear in the
Security Register, notice of such default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless
such default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in
the case of a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or
interest on any Security or in the payment of any Sinking Fund installment,  the
Trustee  shall be  protected  in  withholding  such notice if and so long as the
board of directors,  the executive  committee or a trust  committee of directors
and/or  Responsible  Officers  of the Trustee in good faith  determine  that the
withholding  of such notice is in the  interest of the  Holders;  and  provided,
further,  that in the case of any default of the character  specified in Section
501(4) no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the
occurrence thereof.

SECTION 603.  Certain Rights of Trustee.

     Except as otherwise provided in Section 601:

         (a) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining
     from  acting  upon  any  resolution,  certificate,  statement,  instrument,
     opinion,  report,  notice,  request,   direction,   consent,  order,  bond,

     faith on its part, rely upon an Officers' Certificate;

     rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction
     of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall
     have offered to the Trustee  reasonable  security or indemnity  against the
     costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance
     with such request or direction;

         (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any  investigation  into the
     facts  or  matters  stated  in  any  resolution,   certificate,  statement,
     instrument,  opinion, report, notice, request,  direction,  consent, order,
     bond,  debenture  or  other  paper or  document,  but the  Trustee,  in its

     negligence on the part of any agent or attorney  appointed with due care by
     it hereunder.

SECTION 604.  Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.

     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 their  correctness.  The Trustee
makes no  representations 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 Securities or the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 605.  May Hold Securities.

     The Trustee,  any  Authenticating  Agent,  any Paying  Agent,  any Security
Registrar  or any other agent of the  Company,  in its  individual  or any other
capacity,  may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Section
608, may  otherwise  deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if
it were not Trustee,  Authenticating  Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or
such other agent.

SECTION 606.  Money Held in Trust.

         (1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for

     of an express trust);

         (2) except as otherwise  expressly  provided  herein,  to reimburse the

     faith; and

         (3) to indemnify the 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 trust, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against
     any claim or liability in connection  with the exercise or  performance  of
     any of its powers or duties hereunder.

                                [to be provided]

SECTION 609.  Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

     There  shall  at  all  times  be  a  Trustee  hereunder  which  shall  be a
corporation  organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of
America or of any State,  authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust
powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $5,000,000, subject to
supervision or examination by Federal or State  authority.  If such  corporation
publishes  reports of  condition  at least  annually,  pursuant to law or to the
requirements of the aforesaid  supervising or examining authority,  then for the
purposes of this  Section 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.  Neither the Company nor any Affiliate
of the  Company  shall  serve as Trustee  hereunder.  If at any time the Trustee
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it
shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified
in this Article.

SECTION 610.  Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

     (a) No  resignation  or  removal of the  Trustee  and no  appointment  of a
successor  Trustee  pursuant to this Article  shall become  effective  until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 611.

     (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with  respect to the  Securities  of
any Series by giving written notice thereof to the Company.  If an instrument of
acceptance by a successor  Trustee shall not have been  delivered to the Trustee
within 30 days after the giving of such  notice of  resignation,  the  resigning
Trustee may petition any court of competent  jurisdiction for the appointment of
a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such Series.

     (c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with  respect to the  Securities
of any Series (i) by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding  Securities  of such  Series,  delivered  to the  Trustee and to the
Company or (ii) so long as there shall not have  occurred  and be  continuing  a
Default or Event of Default, by written notice from the Company to the Trustee.

     (d) If at any time:

         (1) the  Trustee  shall fail to comply with  Section 608 after  written
     request  therefor  by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide
     Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

         (2) the Trustee for a Series of  Securities  shall cease to be eligible

Exhibit 4.2                             38
<PAGE>

     under Section 609 and shall fail to resign after written  request  therefor
     by the Company or by any such Holder of such Securities, or

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

then,  in any such case,  (i) the Company may remove the Trustee with respect to
all  Securities,  or (ii) subject to Section 514,  unless the Trustee's  duty to
resign is stayed as provided in Section  608 of this  Indenture,  any Holder who
has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf
of himself and all others  similarly  situated,  petition any court of competent
jurisdiction  for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all  Securities and
the appointment of a successor Trustee.

     (e) If the Trustee shall resign,  be removed or become incapable of acting,
or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect
to the Securities of one or more Series,  the Company shall  promptly  appoint a
successor  Trustee or Trustees  with respect to the  Securities of that or those
Series (it being  understood  that any such  successor  Trustee may be appointed
with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such Series and that any
time there  shall be only one  Trustee  with  respect to the  Securities  of any
particular Series) and shall comply with the applicable  requirements of Section
611. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the
occurrence of such vacancy,  a successor  Trustee with respect to the Securities
of any  Series  shall  be  appointed  by Act of the  Holders  of a  majority  in
principal  amount of the Outstanding  Securities of such Series delivered to the
Company and the retiring  Trustee,  the  successor  Trustee so appointed  shall,
forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment,  become the successor Trustee
with  respect to the  Securities  of such  Series and  supersede  the  successor
Trustee  appointed by the Company.  If no successor  Trustee with respect to the
Securities  of any Series  shall have been so  appointed  by the  Company or the
Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided,  any Holder
who has been a bona fide  Holder of a Security  of such  Series for at least six
months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any
court of competent  jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of such Series.

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

SECTION 611.  Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

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

Exhibit 4.2                             39
<PAGE>

transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights,  powers and trusts of the
retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign,  transfer and deliver to such successor
Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder,  subject
nevertheless to its lien, if any, provided for in Section 607.

     (b) In  case of the  appointment  hereunder  of a  successor  Trustee  with
respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) Series, the Company,  the
retiring Trustee,  upon payment of its charges,  and each successor Trustee with
respect to the  Securities  of one or more Series  shall  execute and deliver an
indenture  supplemental  hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such
appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or
desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all
the rights,  powers,  trusts and duties of the retiring  Trustee with respect to
the  Securities  of that or  those  Series  to  which  the  appointment  of such
successor  Trustee  relates,  (2) if the retiring  Trustee is not retiring  with
respect to all  Securities,  shall  contain such  provisions  as shall be deemed
necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties
of the retiring  Trustee with respect to the  Securities of that or those Series
as to which the retiring  Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in
the retiring  Trustee,  and (3) shall add to or change any of the  provisions of
this  Indenture  as  shall  be  necessary  to  provide  for  or  facilitate  the
administration  of the  trusts  hereunder  by more  than one  Trustee,  it being
understood  that  nothing  herein  or  in  such  supplemental   indenture  shall
constitute  such  Trustees  co-trustees  of the same  trust  and that  each such
Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder  separate and apart from
any trust or trusts hereunder  administered by any other such Trustee;  and upon
the execution and delivery of such  supplemental  indenture the  resignation  or
removal of the retiring  Trustee shall become  effective to the extent  provided
therein  and each such  successor  Trustee,  without any  further  act,  deed or
conveyance,  shall become vested with all the rights,  powers, trusts and duties
of the retiring  Trustee with respect to the  Securities of that or those Series
to which the appointment of such successor  Trustee relates;  but, on request of
the Company or any successor  Trustee,  such retiring Trustee shall duly assign,
transfer  and deliver to such  successor  Trustee all property and money held by
such retiring Trustee  hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those
Series to which the  appointment  of such  successor  Trustee  relates,  subject
nevertheless to its lien, if any, provided for in Section 607.

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

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

SECTION 612.  Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

     Any  corporation  into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be  consolidated,  or any  corporation  resulting  from any merger,
conversion  or  consolidation  to which  the  Trustee  shall be a party,  or any
corporation  succeeding  to all or  substantially  all  of the  corporate  trust
business  of the  Trustee,  shall be the  successor  of the  Trustee  hereunder,
provided such corporation  shall be otherwise  qualified and eligible under this
Article,  without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the
part of any of the  parties  hereto.  In case any  Securities  shall  have  been

Exhibit 4.2                             40
<PAGE>

authenticated,  but not delivered,  by the Trustee then in office, any successor
by merger,  conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt
such  authentication  and deliver the Securities so authenticated  with the same
effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

        ARTICLE SEVEN--HOLDERS' LISTS AND REPORTS BY TRUSTEE AND COMPANY

SECTION 701.  Company to Furnish Trustee Names and Addresses of Holders.

     The Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee

         (a)  semi-annually,  not later than March 15 and  September  15 in each
     year, a list, in such form as the Trustee may  reasonably  require,  of the
     names and  addresses of the Holders of the  Securities of each Series as of
     the preceding March 1 or September 1, respectively, and

         (b)  at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing,  within
     30 days after the  receipt by the  Company of any such  request,  a list of
     similar  form and  content  as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the
     time such list is furnished,

provided,  however,  that so long as the Trustee is the Security  Registrar,  no
such list shall be required to be furnished.

SECTION 702.  Preservation Of Information; Communications to Holders.

     (a) The  Trustee  shall  preserve,  in as  current a form as is  reasonably
practicable,  the names and  addresses of Holders of  Securities  of each Series
contained  in the most recent list  furnished  to the Trustee in respect of such
Series as provided in Section 701 and the name and addresses of Holders received
by the Trustee in its capacity as Security Registrar (if so acting). The Trustee
may destroy any list  furnished to it as provided in Section 701 upon receipt of
a new list so furnished.

     (b) If three or more  Holders  of  Securities  of any  Series  (hereinafter
referred to as  "applicants")  apply in writing to the Trustee,  and furnish the
Trustee  reasonable  proof that each such applicant has owned a Security of such
Series  for a  period  of at  least  six  months  preceding  the  date  of  such
application,   and  such  application  states  that  the  applicants  desire  to
communicate  with other  Holders of  Securities  of such Series with  respect to
their rights under this  Indenture or under the Securities and is accompanied by
a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose
to transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five business days after the receipt
of such application, at its election, either

         (i)  afford such  applicants  access to the  information  in respect of
     such Series preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section
     702(a), or

         (ii) inform such applicants as to the approximate  number of Holders of
     Securities  of  such  Series  whose  names  and  addresses  appear  in  the
     information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section
     702(a),  and as to the approximate cost of mailing to such Holders the form
     of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such application.

     If the Trustee  shall elect not to afford  such  applicants  access to such
information,  the Trustee shall,  upon the written  request of such  applicants,
mail to each Holder of Securities  of such Series whose name and address  appear
in the  information  preserved  at the time by the  Trustee in  accordance  with

Exhibit 4.2                             41

Section  702(a) a copy of the form of  proxy  or  other  communication  which is
specified in such  request,  with  reasonable  promptness  after a tender to the
Trustee  of the  material  to be mailed and of  payment,  or  provision  for the
payment,  of the reasonable  expenses of mailing,  unless within five days after
such  tender,  the  Trustee  shall  mail to such  applicants  and file  with the
Commission,  together  with a copy  of the  material  to be  mailed,  a  written
statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee,  such mailing would
be contrary to the best  interests  of said  Holders or would be in violation of
applicable law. Such written  statement shall specify the basis of such opinion.
If the Commission, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified
in the written statement so filed,  shall enter an order refusing to sustain any
of such objections or if, after the entry of an order  sustaining one or more of
such  objections,  the Commission  shall find,  after notice and opportunity for
hearing,  that all the  objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an
order so  declaring,  the Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all such
Holders with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal
of such tender;  otherwise  the Trustee  shall be relieved of any  obligation or
duty to such applicants respecting their application.

     (c) Every Holder of Securities,  by receiving and holding the same,  agrees
with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee  shall
be held  accountable by reason of the  disclosure of any such  information as to
the names and  addresses  of the  Holders in  accordance  with  Section  702(b),
regardless  of the source  from which such  information  was  derived,  and that
neither  the  Trustee nor the  Company  shall be held  accountable  by reason of
mailing any material pursuant to a request made under Section 702(b).

names and addresses appear in the Security Register,  a brief report dated as of
such May 15, in accordance with and to the extent required by Section 313 of the
TIA.

     (b) A copy of each such report shall,  at the time of such  transmission to
Holders,  be filed by the  Trustee  with  each  stock  exchange  upon  which the
Securities  of such  Series  are  listed,  with the  Company,  and also with the
Commission.  The  Company  will notify the Trustee  when the  Securities  of any
Series are listed on any stock exchange.

SECTION 704.  Reports by Company.

     The Company will

         (1) file with the Trustee, within 15 days after the Company is required
     to file the same with the  Commission,  copies of the annual reports and of
     the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of
     any of the foregoing as the  Commission  may from time to time by rules and

         (6) to  make any other change  which,  in the opinion of counsel to the
     Company,  does not materially adversely affect the interests of the Holders

         SECTION 902.  Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders.

         With  the  consent  of the  Holders  of not  less  than a  majority  in

     indenture or indentures  supplemental  hereto for the purpose of adding any
     provisions  to or  changing  in  any  manner  or  eliminating  any  of  the
     provisions  of this  Indenture  or of modifying in any manner the rights of
     the Holders of such  Securities  under this Indenture;  provided,  however,

     to institute  suit for the  enforcement of any such payment on or after the
     Stated  Maturity  thereof (or, in the case of  redemption,  on or after the
     Redemption Date), or

         (2)  reduce  the  percentage  in  principal  amount of the  Outstanding
     Securities,  the  consent  of  whose  Holders  is  required  for  any  such
     supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any

or other  provision,  shall be  deemed  not to  affect  the  rights  under  this
Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other Series.

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

     In  executing,   or  accepting  the  additional   trusts  created  by,  any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of

and  (subject  to Section  601) shall be fully  protected  in relying  upon,  an

Exhibit 4.2                             45
<PAGE>

Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental  indenture is
authorized  or  permitted by this  Indenture.  The Trustee may, but shall not be
obligated  to,  enter into any such  supplemental  indenture  which  affects the
Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

SECTION 904.  Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

supplemental  indenture  executed  pursuant to this Article shall conform to the
requirements of TIA as then in effect.

SECTION 906.  Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures.

     Securities   authenticated   and  delivered  after  the  execution  of  any

                             ARTICLE TEN--COVENANTS

SECTION 1001.  Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest.

     The  Company  will  duly and  punctually  pay (or  cause  to be  paid)  the
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities of each Series
in  accordance  with  the  terms of such  Securities  and  this  Indenture.  The
principal  of  (and  premium,  if any)  and  interest  on  Securities  shall  be
considered  paid on the date due if the Paying  Agents hold in  accordance  with
this Indenture on that date money, sufficient to pay all principal (and premium,
if any) and  interest  then due and the Paying  Agents are not  prohibited  from
paying  such  money to the  Holders on such date  pursuant  to the terms of this
Indenture.

SECTION 1002.  Maintenance of Office or Agency.

     Except as otherwise  provided in the  Authorizing  Resolution in respect of
any  Series,  the  Company  will  maintain an office or agency in The Borough of
Manhattan,  The  City  of  New  York,  where  Securities  may  be  presented  or
surrendered for payment, and will maintain an office or agency in The Borough of
Manhattan,  The  City of New  York,  where  Securities  may be  surrendered  for
registration  of transfer or exchange  and where  notices and demands to or upon
the Company in respect of the Securities  and this Indenture may be served.  The
Company  initially  appoints  the Trustee as such agent at its  Corporate  Trust
Office for said  purposes.  The Company will give prompt  written  notice to the
Trustee of any change in the  location of such office or agency.  If at any time
the  Company  shall  fail to  maintain  such  office or agency or shall  fail to

Exhibit 4.2                             46
<PAGE>

furnish the Trustee with the address thereof,  such  presentations,  surrenders,
notices and demands may be made or served at the  Corporate  Trust Office of the
Trustee,  and the Company  hereby  appoints the Trustee its agent to receive all
such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

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

SECTION 1003.  Money for  Security Payments  to be Held in Trust; Appointment of
Paying Agent.

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

     Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying  Agents,  it will, on or
before each due date of the  principal of (and  premium,  if any) or interest on
any Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum, or make other arrangements so
that there will be moneys,  in each case  sufficient to pay the  principal  (and
premium,  if any) or interest so becoming  due, such sum to be held in trust for
the benefit of the Persons  entitled to such principal (and premium,  if any) or
interest,  and  (unless  such Paying  Agent is the  Trustee)  the  Company  will
promptly  notify the  Trustee of its  action or failure so to act.  The  Company
initially appoints the Trustee as Paying Agent.

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

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

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

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

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

Exhibit 4.2                             47
<PAGE>

     Any money  deposited  with the Trustee or any Paying  Agent or then held by
the Company,  in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any)
or interest on any Security  and  remaining  unclaimed  for two years after such
principal (and premium,  if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be
paid to the Company on Company  Request,  or (if then held by the Company) shall
be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter,
as an unsecured general creditor,  look only to the Company for payment thereof,
and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust
money,  and all  liability of the Company as trustee  thereof,  shall  thereupon
cease.

SECTION 1004.  Statement as to Default.

     The Company will deliver to the Trustee,  on or before a date not more than
four months  after the end of each fiscal year (which on the date hereof ends on
December 31) of the Company  ending after the date  hereof,  a statement  (which
shall not be deemed an  Officers'  Certificate  and need not conform with any of
the  provisions  of Section  102)  signed by the  principal  executive  officer,
principal  financial  officer or  principal  accounting  officer of the Company,
stating that in the course of the  performance by the signers of their duties as
officers of the Company and based upon a review made under their  supervision of
the activities of the Company during such year and of the Company's  performance
under this  Indenture they would normally  obtain  knowledge  whether or not the
Company is in default in the  performance of any covenant or agreement set forth
in the Indenture,  stating whether or not they have obtained  knowledge that the
Company is in default in the  performance of any such covenant or agreement and,
if so,  specifying each such default of which the signers have knowledge and the
nature thereof.

SECTION 1005.  Corporate Existence.

     Subject  to  Article  Eight,  the  Company  will do or cause to be done all
things  necessary  to preserve  and keep in full force and effect its  corporate
existence,  rights  (charter and statutory) and franchises;  provided,  however,
that the Company  shall not be required to preserve  any such right or franchise
if the  Company  shall  determine  that the  preservation  thereof  is no longer
desirable  in the  conduct  of the  business  of the  Company  and that the loss
thereof is not  disadvantageous  in any  material  respect to the Holders of the
Securities.

SECTION 1006.  Limitation upon Liens.

     (a) The Company will not create, assume,  guarantee or suffer to exist, and
will not cause,  suffer or permit any Restricted  Subsidiary to create,  assume,
guarantee or suffer to exist,  any  indebtedness  for borrowed  money secured by
pledge  of, or  mortgage  or lien on,  any of its  Principal  Plants,  or on any
capital stock of any Restricted Subsidiary, other than

         (i)    purchase money  pledges of, or purchase money mortgages or liens
     on, property acquired (including through merger or consolidation) after the
     date of execution of this Indenture, so long as such pledges, mortgages and
     liens shall attach only to the assets so acquired and improvements thereon,

         (ii)  pledges, mortgages or liens on  property acquired  after the date
     of execution of this  Indenture (1) existing at the time of  acquisition of
     such property  (including  through  merger or  consolidation)  or (2) which
     secure  indebtedness the proceeds of which are used to pay, or to reimburse
     the Company or any Restricted  Subsidiary  for, the cost of the acquisition
     or construction of such property,

Exhibit 4.2                             48
<PAGE>

         (iii)  pledges  of or  mortgages or  liens on  property of a Restricted
     Subsidiary existing at the time it becomes a Restricted Subsidiary,

         (iv)  pledges, mortgages or liens to secure all or any part of the cost
     of development or  construction  of any property or assets or  improvements
     thereon  and which shall be  released  or  satisfied  within 120 days after
     completion of such development or construction,

         (v)   pledges, mortgages  or  liens  required  in  connection  with the
     acquisition,  construction  or  development  of additions or  extensions to
     Principal  Plants  which  shall be  financed by  obligations  described  in
     Sections  141-145 of the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,  or by
     obligations  entitled to  substantially  similar tax  benefits  under other
     legislation or regulations in effect from time to time,

         (vi)  pledges, mortgages or liens securing indebtedness  owing  to  the
     Company or a Restricted Subsidiary by a Restricted Subsidiary,

         (vii) pledges,  mortgages  or  liens  existing  at  the  date  of  this
     Indenture,

         (viii) extensions,  renewals or replacements  of pledges,  mortgages or
     liens referred to in clauses (i) to (vii), inclusive, above, or (xi) below,
     provided that the amount of indebtedness secured by such extension, renewal
     or replacement shall not exceed the principal amount of indebtedness  being
     extended,  renewed or replaced,  nor shall the pledge,  mortgage or lien be
     extended to any additional Principal Plant,

         (ix)  as  permitted  under  Subsection  (b) or  Subsection (d) of  this
     Section 1006,

         (x)   pledges,  mortgages  or  liens   incurred  in   connection   with
     sale-leaseback  transactions  permitted under Section 1007, and

         (xi)  pledges,  mortgages  or liens  required  in  connection  with any
     program,  law,  statute or  regulation  of any state or local  governmental
     entity or authority which provides  financial or tax benefits not available
     without such pledge,  mortgage or lien,  provided that substantially all of
     the obligations  secured  thereby are  obligations  that are in lieu of, or
     reduce,  a property tax or other payment  obligation that itself would have
     been secured by a pledge, mortgage or lien permitted hereunder,

without effectively providing that the Securities (together with, if the Company
shall so  determine,  any other  indebtedness  of the Company  then  existing or
thereafter   created   ranking   equally  with  the  Securities  and  any  other
indebtedness of the Restricted  Subsidiary then existing or thereafter  created)
shall be  secured by the  security  of such  secured  indebtedness  equally  and
ratably therewith.

     (b) If the  Company or any  Restricted  Subsidiary  shall at any time enter
into a merger or  consolidation  with  another  corporation  or purchase  all or
substantially all of the assets of another corporation,  or if the Company shall
sell all or substantially  all of its assets to another  corporation and if such
other  corporation has outstanding  indebtedness  secured by a mortgage or other
lien which, by reason of an after-acquired  property clause or similar provision
therein  contained,  would  extend,  after such merger,  consolidation,  sale or
purchase,  to any  Principal  Plant  owned  by the  Company  or such  Restricted
Subsidiary immediately prior to such merger, consolidation, sale or purchase, or
to the capital stock of a Restricted Subsidiary,  the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary,  as the case may be, shall in such event be deemed to have created a

Exhibit 4.2                             49
<PAGE>

mortgage or lien, within the prohibition of Subsection (a) of this Section 1006,
unless (i) such merger or consolidation  involving a Restricted Subsidiary shall
constitute  a  disposition  by the  Company of its  interest  in the  Restricted
Subsidiary, or (ii) either (A) at or prior to the effective date of such merger,
consolidation,  sale or purchase, such mortgage or lien shall have been released
of record or otherwise satisfied to the extent it would extend to such Principal
Plant or (B) prior to such merger, consolidation,  sale or purchase, the Company
or such  Restricted  Subsidiary,  as the case may be,  shall  have  created,  as
security for the Securities (and, if the Company shall so determine, as security
for any other  indebtedness  of the Company then existing or thereafter  created
ranking equally with the Securities and any other indebtedness of the Restricted
Subsidiary  then  existing or  thereafter  created),  a valid lien  which,  upon
completion of said merger,  consolidation,  sale or purchase, will rank prior to
the  lien of such  mortgage  or other  lien of such  other  corporation  on such
Principal Plant or such capital stock of Restricted Subsidiaries.

     (c) If pursuant to the  provisions  of this Section 1006 the Company or any
Restricted  Subsidiary  shall at any time be obligated to secure the  Securities
(together with, if the Company shall so determine,  any other  indebtedness then
existing or thereafter created ranking equally with the Securities and any other
indebtedness of the Restricted  Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created),
the Company covenants and agrees that it will promptly furnish to the Trustee

         (i)  an Officers'  Certificate  stating that the applicable covenant of
     the  Company above  set forth  in this Section 1006 has been complied with;
     and

         (ii) an  Opinion  of Counsel to the  effect that such covenant has been
     complied with.

     (d)  Notwithstanding  the foregoing  provisions  of this Section 1006,  the
Company  and  any  one or  more  Restricted  Subsidiaries  may  create,  assume,
guarantee  or suffer to exist any  indebtedness  for  borrowed  money  otherwise
subject to the  foregoing  restrictions  and in  addition to that  permitted  by
Subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 1006 (other than pursuant to clause (x) of
said Subsection (a)), and renew,  extend or replace such  indebtedness for money
borrowed; provided, that, at the time of such creation,  assumption,  guarantee,

not available  directly to the Company or available directly to the Company only
on terms which the Company determines are not as favorable as those available to
the  Restricted  Subsidiary  and (E)  guarantees  existing  at the  date of this
Indenture.

     (b)  Notwithstanding  the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Section 1008,
any Restricted  Subsidiary may create, assume or permit to exist any Funded Debt
in addition to that  permitted by paragraph (a) of this Section 1008, and renew,
extend or replace such Funded Debt,  provided that at the time of such creation,
assumption,  renewal, extension or replacement, and after giving effect thereto,

     The Company will cause its property and the property of each  Subsidiary to
be insured at all times  against  loss from  damage or  destruction  by fire and
other  risks to the  extent and in such  manner as is  customary  for  companies
comparable in size to the Company and conducting  businesses similar in size and
nature to the businesses carried on by the Company from time to time;  provided,
however,  that the Company and each of its Subsidiaries may adopt (in lieu of or
supplementing  such  insurance)  any  other or  supplemental  plan or  method of
protection against loss, including self-insurance plans, as may be determined by
the  Company to be in the overall  best  interests  of the Company  from time to
time.

SECTION 1010.  Waiver of Certain Covenants.

     The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant
or  condition  set  forth in  Sections  1005 to 1009,  inclusive,  and any other

Exhibit 4.2                             52
<PAGE>

covenant or condition set forth in any  Authorizing  Resolution or  supplemental
indenture  for the benefit of the Holders of the  Securities  or any  particular
Series of  Securities,  if the Holders of not less than a majority in  principal
amount  of the  Securities  at the time  Outstanding  of all  Series  which  are
entitled to the benefits  thereof  (voting as a single class)  shall,  by Act of
such Holders,  either waive such  compliance in such instance or generally waive
compliance  with such covenant or condition,  but no such waiver shall extend to
or affect such covenant or condition  except to the extent so expressly  waived,
and, until such waiver shall become  effective,  the  obligations of the Company
and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall
remain in full force and effect.

                    ARTICLE ELEVEN--REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

SECTION 1101.  Right of Redemption.

     Redeemable  Securities may be redeemed otherwise than through the operation
of the  Sinking  Fund  provided  for in Article  Twelve at the  election  of the
Company at the times, on the conditions and at the Redemption  Prices  specified
therein, in (or pursuant to) the Authorizing  Resolution relating thereto and in
the supplemental  indenture (if any) executed in connection with the issuance of
such  Securities,  any Redemption Price to be accompanied by accrued interest to
the Redemption Date.

SECTION 1102.  Applicability of Article.

     Redemption of  Securities  at the election of the Company or otherwise,  as
permitted or required by any  provision  referred to in Section  1101,  shall be
made in accordance with such provision and this Article.

SECTION 1103.  Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

     The election of the Company to redeem any Securities  shall be evidenced by
a Board  Resolution or set forth in an Officers'  Certificate  which states that
such election has been duly authorized by all requisite  corporate action on the
part of the Company. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of
less than all of the Securities the Company shall, at least 50 days prior to the
Redemption  Date  fixed  by the  Company  (unless  a  shorter  notice  shall  be
satisfactory to the Trustee),  notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of
the principal  amount of Securities of the Series or Issue or the several Series
or Issues, as the case may be, to be redeemed.  In the case of any redemption of
Securities  prior  to the  expiration  of any  restriction  on  such  redemption
provided in the  Securities  or elsewhere in this  Indenture,  the Company shall
furnish the Trustee with an Officers'  Certificate  evidencing  compliance  with
such restriction.

SECTION 1104.  Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed.

     If less than all the  Securities of any Series or Issue are to be redeemed,
the  particular  Securities  of such  Series  or Issue to be  redeemed  shall be
selected not more than 90 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from
the  Outstanding  Securities of such Series or Issue not  previously  called for
redemption,  by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and  appropriate  and
which may provide for the  selection for  redemption  of portions  (equal to the
minimum authorized  denomination of the Series or Issue or any integral multiple
thereof) of the principal  amount of such  Securities of a  denomination  larger
than such minimum denomination. If the Company shall so specify, Securities held
by the  Company  or any  Subsidiary  shall  not be  included  in the  Securities
selected for redemption.

Exhibit 4.2                             53
<PAGE>

     The Trustee shall promptly  notify the Company in writing of the Securities
selected for  redemption  and, in the case of any Security  selected for partial
redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

     For all purposes of this Indenture,  unless the context otherwise requires,
all  provisions  relating to the redemption of Securities  shall relate,  in the
case of any  Securities  redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion
of the principal amount of such Security which has been or is to be redeemed.

SECTION 1105.  Notice of Redemption.

     Notice of redemption  shall be given by first class mail,  postage prepaid,
mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the  Redemption  Date, to
each  Holder of  Securities  to be  redeemed,  at his address  appearing  in the
Security Register.

     All notices of redemption shall state:

         (1)  the Redemption Date,

         (2)  the Redemption Price,

         (3)  if less than all Outstanding Securities of the Series or Issue are
     to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption,
     the principal amount) of the particular Securities to be redeemed,

         (4)  that on the Redemption Date the  Redemption  Price will become due
     and payable upon each such Security,  and that interest thereon shall cease
     to accrue on and after said date,

         (5)  that  the redemption  is for a Sinking  Fund, if such is the case;
     and

         (6)  the place or places  where such  Securities are to be  surrendered
     for payment of the Redemption Price.

     Notice of  redemption  of  Securities to be redeemed at the election of the
Company  shall be given by the  Company  or, at the  Company's  request,  by the
Trustee in the name of and at the expense of the Company.

SECTION 1106.  Deposit of Redemption Price.

     On or prior to any  Redemption  Date,  the Company  shall  deposit with the
Trustee or with a Paying  Agent (or,  if the Company is acting as its own Paying
Agent,  segregate  and hold in trust as provided  in Section  1003) an amount of
money  sufficient to pay the Redemption  Price of, and (except if the Redemption
Date  shall be an  Interest  Payment  Date) any  accrued  interest  on,  all the
Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date.

SECTION 1107.  Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

     Notice of redemption  having been given as aforesaid,  the Securities so to
be  redeemed  shall,  on the  Redemption  Date,  become  due and  payable at the
Redemption  Price thereof and from and after such date (unless the Company shall
default in the  payment  of the  Redemption  Price and  accrued  interest)  such
Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for
redemption  in accordance  with said notice such  Security  shall be paid by the
Company  at  the  Redemption  Price,  together  with  accrued  interest  to  the
Redemption Date; provided,  however,  that installments of interest whose Stated

Exhibit 4.2                             54
<PAGE>

Maturity is on or prior to the  Redemption  Date shall be payable to the Holders
of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such on
the  relevant  Regular or Special  Record Date  according to their terms and the
provisions of Section 308.

     If any Security  called for redemption  shall not be so paid upon surrender
thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid or
duly provided for, bear interest from the  Redemption  Date at the rate borne by
the Security or, in the case of Original  Issue Discount  Securities,  at a rate
equal to the Yield to Maturity thereof.

SECTION 1108.  Securities Redeemed in Part.

     Any Security  which is to be redeemed only in part shall be  surrendered at
the office or agency of the  Company  maintained  for that  purpose  pursuant to
Section 1002 (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 his attorney duly authorized
in writing),  and the Company shall execute and the  Authenticating  Agent shall
authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge,
a new Security or Securities of the same Issue,  of any authorized  denomination
as  requested  by such  Holder in  aggregate  principal  amount  equal to and in
exchange  for  the  unredeemed  portion  of the  principal  of the  Security  so
surrendered;  except that if a Global  Security is so  surrendered,  the Company
shall  execute,  and the Trustee shall  authenticate,  upon Company  Order,  and
deliver to the Depositary for such Global Security without service charge, a new
Global  Security in a  denomination  equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed
portion of the principal amount of the Global Security so surrendered.

                          ARTICLE TWELVE--SINKING FUND

SECTION 1201.  Sinking Fund Payments.

     As and for a Sinking Fund for the  retirement  of Sinking Fund  Securities,
the Company will,  until all such Securities are paid or payment thereof is duly
provided for, deposit in accordance with Section 1106, at such times and subject
to such terms and  conditions  as shall be specified in the  provisions  of such
Securities and the Authorizing  Resolution and  supplemental  indenture (if any)
relating  thereto,  such amounts in cash as shall be required or permitted under
such provisions in order to redeem Securities on the specified  Redemption Dates
at a Redemption Price equal to their principal  amounts,  less in each such case
the amount of any credit  against  such  payment  received by the Company  under
Section 1202.  Each such Sinking Fund payment shall be applied to the redemption
of Securities on the specified Redemption Date as herein provided.

SECTION 1202.  Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

     The Company (1) may deliver  Securities  of the same Issue  (other than any
previously  called for redemption or  theretofore  applied as a credit against a
Sinking Fund payment or as a credit under Section  1007(d)) and (2) may apply as
a credit  Securities  of the same Issue  redeemed at the election of the Company
pursuant to Section  1101 or through the  operation  of the Sinking  Fund in any
period in excess of the minimum  amount  required for such period under  Section
1201 or the  provisions  relating to such Issue  referred to in Section 1201 and
not  theretofore  applied as a credit against a Sinking Fund payment or a credit
under  Section 1007(d), in  each case in  satisfaction of all or any part of any

Exhibit 4.2                             55
<PAGE>

Sinking Fund payment  required to be made  pursuant to Section  1201.  Each such
Security  so  delivered  or applied  shall be credited  for such  purpose by the
Trustee at a  Redemption  Price equal to its  principal  amount and the required
amount of such Sinking Fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

SECTION 1203.  Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

     If in any year the  Company  shall elect to redeem in excess of the minimum
principal amount of Securities  required to be redeemed pursuant to Section 1201
or to satisfy  all or any part of any  Sinking  Fund  payment by  delivering  or
crediting  Securities  pursuant to Section 1202,  then at least 60 days prior to
the date on which the Sinking  Fund  payment in  question  shall be due (or such
shorter  period as shall be approved by the Trustee),  the Company shall deliver
to the Trustee an  Officers'  Certificate  specifying  the amount of the Sinking
Fund  payment and the portions  thereof  which are to be satisfied by payment of
cash,  by delivery of Securities  or by crediting  Securities,  and, at least 45
days prior to the Sinking Fund payment date (or such shorter  period as shall be
approved by the Trustee),  will also deliver to the Trustee the Securities to be
so delivered.  Such Officers'  Certificate  shall also state that the Securities
forming the basis of any such credit do not  include any  Securities  which have
been redeemed  through the  operation of the Sinking Fund in the minimum  amount
required  under  Section  1201,  previously  credited  against any Sinking  Fund
payment or credited in accordance with Section 1007(d).  The Trustee shall, upon
the receipt of such  Officers'  Certificate  (or, if it shall not have  received
such an Officers' Certificate at least 60 days prior to the Sinking Fund payment
date,  then following such 60th day),  select the Securities to be redeemed upon
the next Sinking Fund payment date, in the manner specified in Section 1104, and
cause  notice of the  redemption  thereof  to be given in the name of and at the
expense of the  Company in the manner  provided  in Section  1105.  Such  notice
having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the
terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1107 and 1108.

              ARTICLE THIRTEEN--DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

SECTION 1301.  Defeasance.

     Upon satisfaction of the applicable  conditions  specified in Section 1303,
the Company shall be discharged from all of its obligations under the Securities
and  under  this  Indenture  with  respect  to the  Securities,  except  for its
obligations  under  Sections  304, 306, 307, 607, 1002 and 1003 and this Article
Thirteen (referred to below as a "Defeasance").

SECTION 1302.  Covenant Defeasance.

     Upon satisfaction of the applicable  conditions  specified in Section 1303,
the Company  shall be released  from its  obligations  under  Article  Eight and
Sections 1005 through 1009,  inclusive,  with respect to the  Securities and the
occurrence  of an event  specified in Section  501(4)  (with  respect to Article
Eight or any of said Sections 1005 through 1009,  inclusive) shall not be deemed
to be an Event of Default with respect to the Securities (referred to below as a
"Covenant Defeasance"). Such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the
Securities,  the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no  liability in
respect of any term,  condition  or  limitation  set forth in any such  Section,
whether  directly or indirectly by reason of any reference in this  Indenture or
in any  other  document  to any such  Section,  and that  the  Securities  shall
thereafter be deemed not to be  Outstanding  for the purposes of any  direction,

Exhibit 4.2                             56
<PAGE>

waiver,  consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the  consequences  of any
thereof) in  connection  with the  provisions of Article Eight and Sections 1005
through 1009,  inclusive,  but shall continue to be deemed  Outstanding  for all
other purposes hereunder.

SECTION 1303.  Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

     The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 1301
or Section 1302 to the Securities of any Series:

         (1) The  Company  shall  irrevocably  have  deposited  or  caused to be
     deposited with the Trustee (which term, for purposes of this Article, shall
     also refer to another  trustee  satisfying the  requirements of Section 609
     who shall agree to comply with the  applicable  provisions of this Article)
     in trust for the Holders of such Securities (A) money in an amount,  or (B)
     U.S.  Government   Obligations  which  through  the  scheduled  payment  of
     principal and interest in respect  thereof in accordance  with their terms,
     and with no  further  reinvestment,  will  provide,  not later than one day
     before  the  due  date  of  any  payment,  money  in an  amount,  or  (C) a
     combination thereof,  sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized
     firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification
     thereof  delivered to the Trustee,  to pay and  discharge  the principal of
     (and  premium,  if any) and  interest on such  Securities  at or before the
     Stated Maturity thereof (and to redeem any Sinking Fund Securities required
     to be redeemed prior to such payment and discharge) in accordance with this
     Indenture and such Securities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  in the case
     of any  Redeemable  Securities  which  are to be  redeemed  prior  to their
     respective  Stated  Maturities,  no deposit under this  paragraph  shall be
     deemed  sufficient to pay and discharge such  Securities as aforesaid until
     proper notice of such  redemption  shall have been given in accordance with
     Article XI of this  Indenture or irrevocable  instructions  shall have been
     given to the Trustee to give such notice.

         (2) The  Company  shall  have  delivered  to the  Trustee an Opinion of
     Counsel stating that the Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain
     or loss for  Federal  income  tax  purposes  as a result  of such  deposit,
     Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax
     on the same amount,  in the same manner and at the same times as would have
     been the case if such deposit,  Defeasance or Covenant  Defeasance  had not
     occurred.

         (3) The  Company  shall have  delivered  to the  Trustee  an  Officers'
     Certificate  to the  effect  that such  Securities,  if then  listed on any
     securities exchange, will not be delisted as a result of such deposit.

         (4) No Event of Default or event  which with notice or lapse of time or
     both would become an Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall
     have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or,  insofar as
     any event described in Section 501(5) or (6), at any time prior to the 91st
     day after such deposit.

         (5) Such  deposit,  Defeasance  or  discharge  shall  not  result  in a
     violation  of, or  constitute  a default  under,  any  other  agreement  or
     instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.

         (6) Such  Defeasance  or  Covenant  Defeasance  shall not result in the
     trust  arising  from such deposit  constituting  an  investment  company as
     defined in the  Investment  Company Act of 1940, as amended,  or such trust
     shall be qualified under such act or exempt from regulation thereunder.

Exhibit 4.2                             57
<PAGE>

         (7) Such Defeasance or Covenant  Defeasance shall not cause the Trustee
     to have a conflicting interest under the TIA with respect to any Securities
     of the Company or any guarantor.

         (8) The Company  shall have  delivered  to the Trustee (i) an Officers'
     Certificate stating that all conditions  precedent provided for relating to
     such Defeasance,  discharge or deposit have been complied with, and (ii) an
     Opinion of Counsel  stating  that all  conditions  precedent  provided  for
     relating to such Defeasance, discharge or deposit have been complied with.

SECTION 1304.  Application of Funds.

     Subject to the  provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money
and U.S. Government  Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with
the  Trustee  pursuant  to  Section  1303 in  respect  of one or more  Series of
Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with
the provisions of such  Securities and this  Indenture,  to the payment,  either
directly or through any Paying Agent  (including  the Company  acting as its own
Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine,  to the Holders of such  Securities,
of all sums due and to become  due  thereon  in  respect  of  principal  and any
premium and  interest,  but such money need not be  segregated  from other funds
except to the extent required by law.

     The  Company  shall pay (in  addition  to any U.S.  Government  Obligations
deposited pursuant to Section 1303), and indemnify the Trustee against, any tax,
fee  or  other  charge  imposed  on or  assessed  against  the  U.S.  Government
Obligations  deposited  pursuant to Section 1303 or the  principal  and interest
received in respect  thereof  other than any such tax, fee or other charge which
by law is for the  account  of the  Holders  of the  Securities  for which  such
deposit is made.

     Anything in this  Article  Thirteen to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  the
Trustee  shall  deliver  or pay to the  Company  from time to time upon  Company
Request  any money or U.S.  Government  Obligations  held by it as  provided  in
Section  1303  which,  in  the  opinion  of  a  nationally  recognized  firm  of
independent  public  accountants  expressed in a written  certification  thereof
delivered to the Trustee,  are in excess of the amount  thereof which would then
be required  to be  deposited  to effect an  equivalent  Defeasance  or Covenant
Defeasance.

SECTION 1305.  Reinstatement.

     If the  Trustee  or the  Paying  Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S.
Government Obligations in accordance with Section 1304 by reason of any order or
judgment  of any  court or  governmental  authority  enjoining,  restraining  or
otherwise  prohibiting such  application,  then the Company's  obligations under
this Indenture and the Securities of such Series shall be revived and reinstated
as though no deposit had occurred  pursuant to this Article  Thirteen until such
time as the  Trustee  or Paying  Agent is  permitted  to apply all such money in
accordance with Section 1304; provided,  however,  that if the Company makes any
payment of principal  of and any premium or interest on any  Security  following
the  reinstatement  of its  obligations,  the Company shall be subrogated to the
rights of the Holders of the  Securities  of such Series to receive such payment
from the money held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent.
