                           REVERSE OF CAPITAL SECURITY

         Distributions  payable on each Capital  Security  will be payable al an
annual rate equal to 5.3369%  beginning on (and  including) the date of original
issuance and ending on (but excluding)  September 26, 2002 and at an annual rate
for each successive period beginning on (and including)  September 26, 2002. and
each  succeeding  Distribution  Payment Date, and ending on (but  excluding) the
next succeeding Distribution Payment Date (each a "Distribution Period"),  equal
to 3-Month LIBOR, determined as described below, plus 3.45% (the "Coupon Rate");
provided, however, that prior to June 26, 2007, the Coupon Rate shall not exceed
11.95%,  applied to the  slated  liquidation  amount of  $1,000.00  per  Capital
Security,  such rate being the rate of interest  payable on the Debentures to be
held by the  Institutional  Trustee.  Distributions  in arrears  for more than a
quarterly  period  will  bear  interest  thereon  compounded  quarterly  at  the
Distribution  Rate  (to the  extent  permitted  by  applicable  law).  The  term
"Distributions"  as used herein includes  payments of Interest and any principal
on the Debentures held by the  Institutional  Trustee unless otherwise stated. A
Distribution  is payable only to the extent that payments are made in respect of
the  Debentures  held  by  the  Institutional  Trustee  and to  the  extent  the
Institutional   Trustee  has  funds   available   therefor.   As  used   herein,
"Determination  Date" means the date that is two London  Banking  Days (i.e.,  a
business day in which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the
London interbank market) preceding the commencement of the relevant Distribution
Period.  In the event that any date on which a Distribution  is payable on  this
Capital  Security  is not a Business  Day,  then a payment  of the  Distribution
payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business
Day (and  without  any  Distribution  or other  payment  in  respect of any such
delay),  except that,  if such Business Day is in the next  succeeding  calendar
year, such payment shall be made on the immediately  preceding  Business Day, in
each case with the same force and effect as if made on the date the  payment was
originally  payable.  The amount of interest payable for any Distribution Period
will  be  calculated  by  applying  the  Coupon  Rate  to the  principal  amount
outstanding at the commencement of the Distribution  Period and multiplying each
such amount by the actual number of days in the  Distribution  Period  concerned
divided by 360.

          "3-Month  LIBOR" as used herein,  means the London  interbank  offered
interest rate for three-month  U.S. dollar deposits  determined by the Debenture
Trustee  in the  following  order  of  priority:  (i) the rate  (expressed  as a
percentage per annum) for U.S.  dollar  deposits  having a three-month  maturity
that appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 am.  (London time) on the related
Determination  Date ("Telerate Page 3750" means the display  designated as "Page
3750" on the Dow Jones  Telerate  Service or such other page as may replace Page
3750 on that  service or such other  service or services as may be  nominated by
the British  Bankers'  Association as the information  vendor for the purpose of
displaying  London interbank  offered rates for U.S. dollar  deposits);  (ii) if
such rate cannot be identified on the related  Determination Date, the Debenture
Trustee will request the principal  London  offices of four leading banks in the
London interbank market to provide such banks' offered quotations  (expressed as
percentages  per annum) to prime banks in the London  interbank  market for U.S.
dollar deposits having a three-month  maturity as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on
such Determination Date. If at least two quotations are provided,  3-Month LIBOR
will be the  arithmetic  mean of such  quotations;  (iii) if fewer than two such
quotations are provided as requested in clause (ii) above, the Debenture Trustee
will  request  four  major New York City banks to provide  such  banks'  offered
quotations  (expressed as percentages  per annum) to leading  European banks for
loans in U.S. dollars as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Determination Date.
If at  least  two  such  quotations  are  provided,  3-Month  LIBOR  will be the
arithmetic mean of such  quotations;  and (iv) if fewer than two such quotations
are provided as requested in clause (iii) above, 3-Month LIBOR will be a 3-Month
LIBOR determined with respect to the Distribution  Period immediately  preceding
such current  Distribution Period. If the rate for U.S. dollar deposits having a
three-month  maturity that  initially  appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00
am.  (London  time)  on the  related  Determination  Date is  superseded  on the
Telerate  Page 3750 by a  corrected  rate by 12:00  noon  (London  time) on such
Determination Date, then the corrected rate as so substituted on the  applicable
page will be the applicable 3-Month LLBOR for such Determination Date.

          The Coupon Rate for any Distribution  Period will at no time be higher
than the maximum rate then permitted by New York law as the same may be modified
by United States law.

          All  percentages  resulting  from  any  calculations  on  the  Capital
Securities will be rounded, if necessary,  to the nearest one hundred-thousandth
of a percentage  point,  with five  one-millionths of a percentage point rounded
upward (e.g.,  9.876545% or .09876545 being rounded to 9.87655% or .0987655, and
all dollar amounts used in or resulting from  such  calculation  will be rounded
to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward)).

         Except as  otherwise  described  below,  Distributions  on the  Capital
Securities  will be cumulative,  will accrue from the date of original  issuance
and will be payable  quarterly in arrears on March 26, June 26, September 26 and
December 26 of each year, commencing on September 26, 2002. The Debenture Issuer
has the  right  under  the  Indenture  to  defer  payments  of  interest  on the
Debentures by extending  the interest  payment  period for up to 20  consecutive
quarterly periods (each an "Extension Period") on the Debentures, subject to the
conditions  described below,  although such interest would continue to accrue on
the  Debentures  at an annual  rate equal to the  Distribution  Rate  compounded
quarterly  to the  extent  permitted  by law  during any  Extension  Period.  No
Extension  Period may end on a date other than a  Distribution  Payment Dale. At
the end of any such Extension Period the Debenture Issuer shall pay all interest
then accrued and unpaid on the  Debentures  (together with  Additional  Interest
thereon);  provided,  however,  that no Extension  Period may extend  beyond the
Maturity Date. Prior to the termination of any Extension  Period,  the Debenture
Issuer may further extend such period,  provided that such period  together with
all such previous and further consecutive extensions thereof shall not exceed 20
consecutive  quarterly  periods,  or extend beyond the Maturity Date.  Upon  the
termination  of any  Extension  Period and upon  the  payment of all accrued and
unpaid interest and Additional Interest, the Debenture Issuer may commence a new
Extension  Period,  subject  to  the  foregoing  requirements.  No  interest  or
Additional Interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period,  except
at the end thereof,  but each  installment of interest that would otherwise have
been  due and  payable  during  such  Extension  Period  shall  bear  Additional
Interest. If Distributions are deferred,  the Distributions due shall be paid on
the  date that the related  Extension  Period  terminates,  to  Holders  of  the
Securities  as they  appear on the books and  records of the Trust on the record
date  immediately  preceding such date.  Distributions on the Securities must be
paid on the dates payable  (after giving effect to any Extension  Period) to the
extent that the Trust has funds available for the payment of such  distributions
in  the  Property  Account  of  the  Trust.  The  Trust's  funds  available  for
Distribution  to  the  Holders  of  the  Securities  will be limited to payments
received from the Debenture  Issuer.  The payment of Distributions out of moneys
held by the Trust is guaranteed by the Guarantor pursuant to the Guarantee.

           The  Capital  Securities  shall  be  redeemable  as  provided  in the
Declaration.

ending on (but  excluding)  the next  succeeding  Interest  Payment Date (each a
"Distribution  Period"),  equal to 3-Month LIBOR, determined as described below,
plus 3.45% (the "Coupon Rate"); provided,  however, that prior to June 26, 2007,
the Coupon Rate shall not exceed 11.95%, applied to the principal amount hereof,
until the principal  hereof is paid or duly  provided for or made  available for
payment,  and on any overdue principal and (without  duplication) on any overdue
installment of interest at the same rate per annum,  compounded quarterly,  from
the  dates  such  amounts  are due  until  they are paid or made  available  for
payment.  The amount of interest  payable for any period will be computed on the
basis of the actual number of days in the Distribution  Period concerned divided
by 360.  In the  event  that any  date on  which  interest  is  payable  on this
Debenture is not a Business Day, then a payment of the interest  payable on such
date  will be made on the  next  succeeding  day  which is a  Business  Day (and
without any  interest  or other  payment in respect of any such  delay),  except
that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment
shall be made on the immediately  preceding  Business Day, in each case with the
same force and effect as if made on the date the payment was originally payable.
The interest  installment so payable,  and punctually paid or duly provided for,
on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture,  be paid to the
Person in whose name this Debenture (or one or more  Predecessor  Securities) is
registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest
installment, which shall be fifteen days prior to the day on which the relevant

                                        2
<PAGE>

Interest  Payment Date occurs.  Any such interest  installment not so punctually
paid or duly provided for shall  forthwith  cease to be payable to the Holder on
such  regular  record  date and may be paid to the  Person  in whose  name  this
Debenture (or one or more Predecessor  Securities) is registered at the close of
business on a special record date.

          "3-Month  LIBOR" as used herein,  means the London  interbank  offered
interest rate for three-month U.S. dollar deposits  determined by the Trustee in
the following  order of priority:  (i) the rate  (expressed as a percentage  per
annum) for U.S. dollar  deposits  having a three-month  maturity that appears on
Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m.  (London time) on the related  Determination
Date  ("Telerate  Page 3750" means the display  designated as "Page 3750" on the
Dow Jones  Telerate  Service or such other page as may replace Page 3750 on that
service or such other  service or  services as may be  nominated  by the British
Bankers'  Association  as the  information  vendor for the purpose of displaying
London  interbank  offered rates for U.S.  dollar  deposits);  (ii) if such rate
cannot be identified on the related Determination Date, the Trustee will request
the  principal  London  offices of four  leading  banks in the London  interbank
market to provide such banks' offered  quotations  (expressed as percentages per
annum) to prime banks in the London  interbank  market for U.S.  dollar deposits
having  a  three-month   maturity  as  of  11:00  a.m.  (London  time)  on  such
Determination Date. If at least two quotations are provided,  3-Month LIBOR will
be the  arithmetic  mean of such  quotations;  (iii)  if  fewer  than  two  such
quotations  are  provided as  requested  in clause (ii) above,  the Trustee will
request four major New York City banks to provide such banks' offered quotations
(expressed as percentages per annum) to leading European banks for loans in U.S.
dollars as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such  Determination  Date. If at least
two such  quotations are provided,  3-Month LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of
such  quotations;  and (iv) if fewer than two such  quotations  are  provided as
requested  in  clause  (iii)  above,  3-Month  LIBOR  will  be a  3-Month  LIBOR
determined with respect to the Distribution  Period  immediately  preceding such
current  Distribution  Period.  If the rate for U.S.  dollar  deposits  having a
three-month  maturity that  initially  appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00
a.m.  (London  time) on the  related  Determination  Date is  superseded  on the
Telerate  Page 3750 by a  corrected  rate by 12:00  noon  (London  time) on such
Determination  Date, then the corrected rate as so substituted on the applicable
page will be the applicable 3-Month LIBOR for such  Determination  Date. As used
herein,  "Determination  Date"  means the date that is two London  Banking  Days
(i.e.,  a  business  day in which  dealings  in  deposits  in U.S.  dollars  are
transacted in the London  interbank  market)  preceding the  commencement of the
relevant Distribution Period.

          The Coupon Rate for any Distribution  Period will at no time be higher
than the maximum rate then permitted by New York law as the same may be modified
by United States law.

          All percentages resulting from any calculations on the Debentures will
be rounded, if necessary,  to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage
point,  with five  one-millionths  of a percentage  point rounded  upward (e.g.,
9.876545% or  .09876545  being  rounded to 9.87655% or .0987655,  and all dollar
amounts  used in or  resulting  from such  calculation  will be  rounded  to the
nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward)).

          The  principal of and interest on this  Debenture  shall be payable at
the office or agency of the  Trustee (or other  paying  agent  appointed  by the
Company)  maintained  for that  purpose  in any coin or  currency  of the United
States of America  that at the time of payment  is legal  tender for  payment of
public and private  debts;  provided,  however,  that payment of interest may be
made by check mailed to the registered holder at such address as shall appear in
the  Debenture  Register if a request for a wire transfer by such holder has not
been  received  by the Company or by wire  transfer to an account  appropriately
designated by the holder hereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  so long as the
holder of this  Debenture  is the  Institutional  Trustee,  the  payment  of the
principal  of and  interest  on this  Debenture  will  be  made  in  immediately
available  funds at such place and to such account as may be  designated  by the
Trustee.

          So long as no Event of Default has  occurred  and is  continuing,  the
Company shall have the right, from time to time, and without causing an Event of
Default, to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by

                                        3
<PAGE>

extending  the interest  payment  period on the  Debentures at any time and from
time  to  time  during  the  term of the  Debentures,  for up to 20  consecutive
quarterly  periods (each such extended  interest  payment period,  an "Extension
Period"),  during  which  Extension  Period no  interest  (including  Additional
Interest) shall be due and payable.  No Extension Period may end on a date other
than an  Interest  Payment  Date.  At the end of any such  Extension  Period the
Company  shall pay all  interest  then  accrued  and  unpaid  on the  Debentures
(together  with  Additional  Interest  thereon);   provided,  however,  that  no
Extension Period may extend beyond the Maturity Date; provided further, however,
that  during any such  Extension  Period,  the  Company  shall not and shall not
permit any Affiliate to (i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or
redeem, purchase, acquire, or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of
the  Company's  or such  Affiliate's  capital  stock  (other  than  payments  of
dividends or distributions  to the Company) or make any guarantee  payments with
respect to the foregoing or (ii) make any payment of principal of or interest or
premium,  if any, on or repay,  repurchase or redeem any debt  securities of the
Company or any Affiliate  that rank pari passu in all respects with or junior in
interest to the  Debentures  (other  than,  with respect to clauses (i) and (ii)
above, (a) repurchases,  redemptions or other  acquisitions of shares of capital
stock of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or
other  similar  arrangement  with or for the  benefit of one or more  employees,
officers,  directors or consultants,  in connection with a dividend reinvestment
or stockholder stock purchase plan or in connection with the issuance of capital
stock of the Company (or securities  convertible  into or  exercisable  for such
capital stock) as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior
to the applicable Extension Period, (b)as a result of any exchange or conversion
of any class or series of the Company's capital stock (or any capital stock of a
subsidiary  of the  Company)  for any class or series of the  Company's  capital
stock or of any class or series of the Company's  indebtedness  for any class or
series of the Company's capital stock, (c) the purchase of fractional  interests
in shares of the Company's  capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange
provisions of such capital stock or the security  being  converted or exchanged,
(d) any  declaration of a dividend in connection with any  stockholders'  rights
plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any stockholders'
rights plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto, (e) any
dividend  in the form of stock,  warrants,  options  or other  rights  where the
dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants,  options or
other  rights is the same stock as that on which the  dividend  is being paid or
ranks pari passu with or junior to such stock and any cash  payments  in lieu of
fractional  shares issued in  connection  therewith,  or (f) payments  under the
Capital Securities Guarantee). Prior to the termination of any Extension Period,
the Company may further extend such period,  provided that such period  together
with all such  previous and further  consecutive  extensions  thereof  shall not
exceed 20  consecutive  quarterly  periods,  or extend beyond the Maturity Date.
Upon the termination of any Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued
and unpaid  interest  and  Additional  Interest,  the Company may commence a new
Extension  Period,  subject  to  the  foregoing  requirements.  No  interest  or
Additional Interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period,  except
at the end thereof,  but each  installment of interest that would otherwise have
been  due and  payable  during  such  Extension  Period  shall  bear  Additional
Interest.  The Company must give the Trustee  notice of its election to begin or
extend such  Extension  Period at least 5 Business  Days prior to the earlier of
(i) the date interest on the  Debentures  would have been payable except for the
election  to begin  such  Extension  Period  or (ii) the date such  interest  is
payable,  but in any event not less than 5 Business  Days  prior to such  record
date.

          This  Debenture  is one  of  the  floating  rate  junior  subordinated
deferrable interest debentures of the Company,  all issued or to be issued under
and  pursuant to the  Indenture  dated as of June 26,  2002,  duly  executed and
delivered between the Company and the Trustee,  to which Indenture  reference is
hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations,

Debenture,  by  accepting  the  same,  (a)  agrees to and shall be bound by such
provisions,  (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his or her behalf to take
such action as may be necessary or  appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the
subordination  so provided  and (c)  appoints  the  Trustee his or her  attorney
in-fact  for  any and all  such  purposes.  Each  holder  hereof,  by his or her
acceptance   hereof,   hereby  waives  all  notice  of  the  acceptance  of  the
subordination provisions contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of
Senior Indebtedness,  whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred,  and waives
reliance by each such holder upon said provisions.
