      WHEREAS, the Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery of
this Indenture to provide for the issuance of its unsecured junior subordinated

      WHEREAS, all things necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement of
the Company, in accordance with its terms, have been done.

      NOW, THEREFORE, this Indenture Witnesseth:

      For and in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the
Securities by the Holders thereof, it is mutually covenanted and agreed, for the
equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders of the Securities, as follows:

                                    ARTICLE I

             DEFINITIONS AND OTHER PROVISIONS OF GENERAL APPLICATION

SECTION 1.1. Definitions.

      For all purposes of this Indenture, except as otherwise expressly provided
or unless the context otherwise requires:

            (f) a reference to the singular includes the plural and vice versa;
      and

      include the masculine, feminine and neuter genders.

      "Act" when used with respect to any Holder, has the meaning specified in
Section 1.4.

      "Administrative Trustee" means, with respect to the Trust, each Person

      "Additional Interest" means the interest, if any, that shall accrue on any
amounts payable on the Securities, the payment of which has not been made on the

entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders
after such record date; provided, that no such action shall be effective
hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date (as defined
in Section 1.4(h)) by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding
Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to
prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a
record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the
record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person
be canceled and of no effect). Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to
this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such
record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date
to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities in the
manner set forth in Section 1.6.

            (g) The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of
determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to join in the giving
or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration or
rescission or annulment thereof referred to in Section 5.2, (iii) any request to
institute proceedings referred to in Section 5.7(b) or (iv) any direction
referred to in Section 5.12. If any record date is set pursuant to this
paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date, and no
other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or
direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date;
provided, that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or
prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal
amount of Outstanding Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph
shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any
action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this
paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with
no action by any Person be canceled and of no effect). Promptly after any record
date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company's expense,
shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the
applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each
Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 1.6.

            (h) With respect to any record date set pursuant to paragraph (f) or
(g) of this Section 1.4, the party hereto that sets such record date may
designate any day as the "Expiration Date" and from time to time may change the
Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided, that no such change shall
be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the
other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities in the manner
set forth in Section 1.6, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an
Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant
to this Section 1.4, the party hereto that set such record date shall be deemed
to have initially designated the ninetieth (90th) day after such record date as
the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the
Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
Expiration Date shall be later than the one hundred eightieth (180th) day after
the applicable record date.

            SECTION 1.5. Notices, Etc. to Trustee and Company.

            Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver, Act of Holders, or other document provided or permitted by this
Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with:

            (a) the Trustee by any Holder, any holder of Preferred Securities or
the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given,
furnished or filed in writing to or with and received by the Trustee at its
Corporate Trust Office, or

            (b) the Company by the Trustee, any Holder or any holder of
Preferred Securities shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in
writing and mailed, first class, postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to it
at 8401 N. Central Expressway, Suite 800, Dallas, Texas 75225 or at any other
address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company.

            SECTION 1.6. Notice 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 to the address of such Holder as it appears in the
Securities Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the
earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. If, by reason of the
suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service or for any other reason,
it shall be impossible or impracticable to mail notice of any event to Holders
when said notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this
Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the
Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient 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 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.

            SECTION 1.7. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

            The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents
are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this
Indenture.

            SECTION 1.8. Successors and Assigns.

            This Indenture shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit
of any successor to the Company and the Trustee, including any successor by
operation of law. Except in connection with a transaction involving the Company
that is permitted under Article VIII and pursuant to which the assignee agrees
in writing to perform the Company's obligations hereunder, the Company shall not
assign its obligations hereunder.

            SECTION 1.9. Separability Clause.

            If 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,
and there shall be deemed substituted for the provision at issue a valid, legal
and enforceable provision as similar as possible to the provision at issue.

            SECTION 1.10. 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 and
assigns, the holders of Senior Debt, the Holders of the Securities and, to the
extent expressly provided in Sections 5.2, 5.8, 5.9, 5.11, 5.13, 9.2 and 10.7,
the holders of Preferred Securities, any benefit or any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

            SECTION 1.11. Governing Law.

HOLDERS, THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT
REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE
GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

            SECTION 1.12. Submission to Jurisdiction.

            ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO OR
WITH RESPECT TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS INDENTURE MAY BE BROUGHT IN OR REMOVED TO
THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, OR OF
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK (IN EACH CASE
SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN). BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS
INDENTURE, EACH PARTY ACCEPTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY,
GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS (AND
COURTS OF APPEALS THEREFROM) FOR LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS INDENTURE.

            SECTION 1.13. Non-Business Days.

            If any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of
any Security shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other
provision of this Indenture or the Securities) payment of interest, premium, if
any, or principal or other amounts in respect of such Security shall not be made
on such date, but shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day (and no
interest shall accrue in respect of the amounts whose payment is so delayed for
the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated
Maturity, as the case may be, until such next succeeding Business Day) except
that, if such Business Day falls 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 Interest Payment Date or
Redemption Date or at the Stated Maturity.

            Capstead Mortgage Corporation, a corporation organized and existing
under the laws of Maryland (hereinafter called the "Company," which term
includes any successor Person under

                                       14
<PAGE>
the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to
pay to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, not in its individual capacity
but solely as Property Trustee of Capstead Mortgage Trust I, or registered
assigns, the principal sum of Thirty Six Million Eighty Three Thousand Dollars
($36,083,000) [IF THE SECURITY IS A GLOBAL SECURITY, THEN INSERT -- OR SUCH
OTHER PRINCIPAL AMOUNT REPRESENTED HEREBY AS MAY BE SET FORTH IN THE RECORDS OF
THE SECURITIES REGISTRAR HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
INDENTURE] on October 30, 2035. The Company further promises to pay interest on
said principal sum from September 26, 2005, or from the most recent Interest
Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly in
arrears on January 30, April 30, July 30 and October 30, of each year,
commencing October 30, 2005, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the
next succeeding Business Day (and no interest shall accrue in respect of the
amounts whose payment is so delayed for the period from and after such Interest
Payment Date until such next succeeding Business Day), except that, if such
Business Day falls 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 Interest Payment Date, at a fixed rate equal
to 8.19% per annum through the interest payment date on October 30, 2015 ("Fixed
Rate Period") and thereafter at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 3.5% per
annum, together with Additional Tax Sums, if any, as provided in Section 10.5 of
the Indenture, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for or made
available for payment; provided, further, that any overdue principal, premium,
if any, or Additional Tax Sums and any overdue installment of interest shall
bear Additional Interest at a fixed rate equal to 8.19% through the interest
payment date on October 30, 2015 and thereafter at a variable rate equal to
LIBOR plus 3.5% per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall
be legally enforceable), compounded quarterly, from the dates such amounts are
due until they are paid or made available for payment, and such interest shall
be payable on demand.

            The amount of interest payable on any Interest Payment Date shall be
computed during the Fixed Rate Period on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months, and thereafter on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual
number of days elapsed in the relevant interest period. The interest so payable,
and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall, as
provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or
one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on
the Regular Record Date for such interest installment. Any such interest not so
punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the
Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose
name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the
close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted
Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of
Securities not less than ten (10) days prior to such Special Record Date, or be
paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the
requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed,
and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully
provided in the Indenture.

            During an Event of Default, the Company shall not (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 capital stock or (ii)
make any payment of principal of or any interest or premium, if any, on or
repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company that rank pari
passu in all respects with or junior in interest to this Security (other than
(a) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of
the Company in connection with

                                       15
<PAGE>
(1) any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or
for the benefit of any one or more employees, officers, directors or
consultants, (2) a dividend reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase plan and
(3) 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 such Event of Default, (b) as a result of an
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
Rights Plan, the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any Rights
Plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto or (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).

            Payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this
Security shall be made in such coin or currency of the United States of America
as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private
debts. Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest due at the Maturity
of this Security shall be made at the Place of Payment upon surrender of such
Securities to the Paying Agent, and payments of interest shall be made, subject
to such surrender where applicable, by wire transfer at such place and to such
account at a banking institution in the United States as may be designated in
writing to the Paying Agent at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date
for payment by the Person entitled thereto unless proper written transfer
instructions have not been received by the relevant record date, in which case
such payments shall be made by check mailed to the address of such Person as
such address shall appear in the Security Register. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, so long as the Holder of this Security is the Property Trustee, the
payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any
overdue installment of interest and Additional Tax Sums, if any) on this
Security will be made at such place and to such account as may be designated by
the Property Trustee.

            The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, to the extent
provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the
prior payment in full of all Senior Debt, and this Security is issued subject to
the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each Holder of this
Security, 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 actions as may be necessary or appropriate to 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, waives
all notice of the acceptance of the subordination provisions contained herein
and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Debt, whether now outstanding or
hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said
provisions.

            Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by
the Trustee by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any
benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

                          [FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY]

            This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the
Company (the "Securities") issued under the Junior Subordinated Indenture, dated
as of September 26, 2005 (the "Indenture"), between the Company and Wells Fargo
Bank, National Association, as Trustee (in such capacity, the "Trustee," which
term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and
all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of
the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder
of the Company, the Trustee, the holders of Senior Debt, the Holders of the
Securities and the holders of the Preferred Securities, and of the terms upon
which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

            All terms used in this Security that are defined in the Indenture or
in the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, dated as of September 26, 2005 (as
modified, amended or supplemented from time to time, the "Trust Agreement"),
relating to the Capstead Mortgage Trust I (the "Trust") among the Company, as
Depositor, the Trustees named therein and the Holders from time to time of the
Trust Securities issued pursuant thereto, shall have the meanings assigned to
them in the Indenture or the Trust Agreement, as the case may be.

            The Company may, on any Interest Payment Date, at its option, upon
not less than thirty (30) days' nor more than sixty (60) days' written notice to
the Holders of the Securities (unless a shorter notice period shall be
satisfactory to the Trustee) on or after October 30, 2010 and subject to the
terms and conditions of Article XI of the Indenture, redeem this Security in
whole at any time or in part from time to time at a Redemption Price equal to
one hundred percent (100%) of the principal amount hereof, together, in the case
of any such redemption, with accrued interest, including any Additional
Interest, through but excluding the date fixed as the Redemption Date.

            In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a
Special Event, the Company may, at its option, upon not less than thirty (30)
days' nor more than sixty (60) days' written notice to the Holders of the
Securities (unless a shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the
Trustee), redeem this Security, in whole but not in part, subject to the terms
and conditions of Article XI of the Indenture at a Redemption Price equal to one
hundred seven and one half percent (107.5%) of the principal amount hereof,
together, in the case of any such redemption, with accrued interest, including
any Additional Interest, through but excluding the date fixed as the Redemption
Date.

            In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new
Security or Securities for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the
name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. If less than all the
Securities are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be
selected not more than sixty (60) days prior to the Redemption Date by the
Trustee from the Outstanding Securities 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 a portion of the principal amount of any
Security.

            The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided,
the Company and the Trustee at any time to enter into a supplemental indenture
or indentures for the purpose of modifying in any manner the rights and
obligations of the Company and of the Holders of the Securities, with the
consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the

                                       17
<PAGE>
Outstanding Securities. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting
Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities, on
behalf of the Holders of all Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with
certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the
Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of
this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all
future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

            No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this
Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any
premium, if any, and interest, including any Additional Interest (to the extent
legally enforceable), on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the
coin or currency, herein prescribed.

            As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is restricted to transfers to
"Qualified Purchasers" (as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended), and is registrable in the Securities Register, upon surrender
of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the
Company maintained for such purpose, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the
Securities Registrar and duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder's
attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities,
of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal
amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

            The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons
in minimum denominations of $100,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in
excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal
amount of Securities and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination,
as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

            No service charge shall be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

            The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee
may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither
the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

            The Company and, by its acceptance of this Security or a beneficial
interest herein, the Holder of, and any Person that acquires a beneficial
interest in, this Security agree that, for United States federal, state and
local tax purposes, it is intended that this Security constitute indebtedness.

            THIS SECURITY SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND
GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT
OF LAWS PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

                                                       Authorized signatory

            SECTION 2.4. Temporary Securities.

            (a) Pending the preparation of definitive Securities, the Company
may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
temporary Securities that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed
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 the officers
executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such
Securities.

            (b) If temporary Securities are issued, the Company will cause
definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the
preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be
exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary
Securities at the office or agency of the Company designated for that purpose
without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more
temporary Securities, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more definitive Securities
of any authorized denominations having the same Original Issue Date and Stated
Maturity and having the same terms as such temporary Securities. Until so
exchanged, the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the
same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities.

border or steel engraved borders or may be produced in any other manner
permitted by the rules of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be
listed, all as determined by the officers executing such Securities, as
evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

                                  ARTICLE III

                                 THE SECURITIES

            SECTION 3.1. Payment of Principal and Interest.

            (a) The unpaid principal amount of the Securities shall bear
interest at a fixed rate equal to 8.19% per annum through the interest payment
date on October 30, 2015 and thereafter at a variable rate of LIBOR plus 3.5%
per annum until paid or duly provided for such interest to accrue from the
Original Issue Date or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which
interest has been paid or duly provided for, and any overdue principal, premium,
if any, or Additional Tax Sums and any overdue installment of interest shall
bear Additional Interest at the rate equal to a fixed rate equal to 8.19% per
annum through the interest payment date on October 30, 2015 and thereafter at a
variable rate of LIBOR plus 3.5% per annum compounded quarterly from the dates
such amounts are due until they are paid or funds for the payment thereof are
made legally available for payment.

            (b) Interest and Additional Interest on any Security that is
payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment
Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular
Record Date for such interest, except that interest and any Additional Interest
payable on the Stated Maturity (or any date of principal repayment upon early
maturity) of the principal of a Security or on a Redemption Date shall be paid
to the Person to whom principal is paid. The initial payment of interest on any
Security that is issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest
Payment Date shall be payable as provided in such Security.

            (c) Any interest on any Security that is due and payable, but is not
timely paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities
(herein called "Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable to the
registered Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been
such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its
election in each case, as provided in paragraph (i) or (ii) below:

                  (i) 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 (a "Special Record Date"), which shall be fixed in the
            following manner. At least thirty (30) days prior to the date of the
            proposed payment, the Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of
            the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each
            Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time
            the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal
            to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such
            Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the
            Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment,
            such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the
            Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest. Thereupon the Trustee
            shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted
            Interest, which shall be not more than fifteen (15) days and not
            less than ten (10) days prior to the date of the proposed payment
            and not less than ten (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

                                       22
<PAGE>
            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 a Security at the address of such Holder as it appears in
            the Securities Register not less than ten (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
            so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in
            whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor
            Securities) are registered on such Special Record Date; or

                  (ii) 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 may be listed and,
            upon such notice as may be required by such exchange (or by the
            Trustee if the Securities are not listed), 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.

            (d) Payments of interest on the Securities shall include interest
accrued to but excluding the respective Interest Payment Dates. Interest
payments for the Securities shall be computed and paid during the Fixed Rate
Period on the basis of a 360 day year or twelve 30 day months, and thereafter on
the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the
relevant interest period.

            (e) Payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Securities shall be made in such coin or currency of the United States of
America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and
private debts. Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest due at the
Maturity of such Securities shall be made at the Place of Payment upon surrender
of such Securities to the Paying Agent and payments of interest shall be made
subject to such surrender where applicable, by wire transfer at such place and
to such account at a banking institution in the United States as may be
designated in writing to the Paying Agent at least ten (10) Business Days prior
to the date for payment by the Person entitled thereto unless proper written
transfer instructions have not been received by the relevant record date, in
which case such payments shall be made by check mailed to the address of such
Person as such address shall appear in the Security Register. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, so long as the holder of this Security is the Property Trustee,
the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including
any overdue installment of interest and Additional Tax Sums, if any) on this
Security will be made at such place and to such account as may be designated by
the Property Trustee.

            (f) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.1, each
Security delivered under this Indenture upon 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, that were carried by such other Security. The parties
hereto acknowledge and agree that the holders of the Preferred Securities have
certain rights to direct the Company to modify the Interest Payment Dates and
corresponding Redemption Date and Stated Maturity of the Securities or a portion
of the Securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement; provided that the holder
of Preferred Securities requesting such a modification shall be responsible for
all reasonable costs incurred by the Company or the Trust to effectuate such
modification. In the event any such modifications are made to the Securities or
a portion of the Securities, appropriate changes to the form of Security

                                       23
<PAGE>
set forth in Article II hereof shall be made prior to the issuance and
authentication of new or replacement Securities. Any such modification of the
Interest Payment Date and corresponding Redemption Date and Stated Maturity with
respect to any Securities or tranche of Securities shall not require or be
subject to the consent of the Trustee.

            SECTION 3.2. Denominations.

            The Securities shall be in registered form without coupons and shall
be issuable in minimum denominations of $100,000 and any integral multiple of
$1,000 in excess thereof.

            SECTION 3.3. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

            (a) At any time and from time to time after the execution and
delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities in an aggregate
principal amount (including all then Outstanding Securities) not in excess of
Thirty Six Million Eighty Three Thousand Dollars ($36,083,000) executed by the
Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the
authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance
with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. In
authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities
under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be
entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon:

                  (i) a copy of any Board Resolution relating thereto; and

                  (ii) an Opinion of Counsel stating that: (1) such Securities,
            when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the
            Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in
            such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute, and the Indenture
            constitutes, valid and legally binding obligations of the Company,
            each enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to
            bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization,
            moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or
            affecting creditors' rights and to general equity principles; (2)
            the Securities have been duly authorized and executed by the Company
            and have been delivered to the Trustee for authentication in
            accordance with this Indenture; (3) the Securities are not required
            to be registered under the Securities Act; and (4) the Indenture is
            not required to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act.

            (b) The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its
Chairman of the Board, its Vice Chairman of the Board, its Chief Executive
Officer, its President or one of its Vice Presidents. The signature of any of
these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. 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.

            (c) 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 Trustee 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any
Security shall have been authenticated and delivered

                                       24
<PAGE>
hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall
deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section
3.8, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to
have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to
the benefits of this Indenture.

            (d) Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

            [IF DTC ENTRY INSERT THE FOLLOWING SECTION:]

            SECTION 3.4. Global Securities.

            (a) Upon the election of the Holder after the Original Issue Date,
which election need not be in writing, the Securities owned by such Holder shall
be issued in the form of one or more Global Securities registered in the name of
the Depositary or its nominee. Each Global Security issued under this Indenture
shall be registered in the name of the Depositary designated by the Company for
such Global Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a
nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall
constitute a single Security for all purposes of this Indenture.

            (b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global
Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for registered Securities, and no
transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name
of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee
thereof unless (i) such Depositary advises the Trustee and the Company in
writing that such Depositary is no longer willing or able to properly discharge
its responsibilities as Depositary with respect to such Global Security, and no
qualified successor is appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days of
receipt by the Company of such notice, (ii) such Depositary ceases to be a
clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and no successor is appointed
by the Company within ninety (90) days after obtaining knowledge of such event,
(iii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order stating
that the Company elects to terminate the book-entry system through the
Depositary or (iv) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
Upon the occurrence of any event specified in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv)
above, the Trustee shall notify the Depositary and instruct the Depositary to
notify all owners of beneficial interests in such Global Security of the
occurrence of such event and of the availability of Securities to such owners of
beneficial interests requesting the same. The Trustee may conclusively rely, and
be protected in relying, upon the written identification of the owners of
beneficial interests furnished by the Depositary, and shall not be liable for
any delay resulting from a delay by the Depositary. Upon the issuance of such
Securities and the registration in the Securities Register of such Securities in
the names of the Holders of the beneficial interests therein, the Trustee shall
recognize such holders of beneficial interests as Holders.

            (c) If any Global Security is to be exchanged for other Securities
or canceled in part, or if another Security is to be exchanged in whole or in
part for a beneficial interest in any Global Security, then either (i) such
Global Security shall be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation as provided
in this Article III or (ii) the principal amount thereof shall be reduced or
increased by an amount equal to (x) the portion thereof to be so exchanged or
canceled, or (y) the principal amount of such other Security to be so exchanged
for a beneficial interest therein, as

                                       25
<PAGE>
the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of
the Securities Registrar, whereupon the Trustee, in accordance with the
Applicable Depositary Procedures, shall instruct the Depositary or its
authorized representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records.
Upon any such surrender or adjustment of a Global Security by the Depositary,
accompanied by registration instructions, the Company shall execute and the
Trustee upon receipt of a Company order shall authenticate and deliver any
Securities issuable in exchange for such Global Security (or any portion
thereof) in accordance with the instructions of the Depositary. The Trustee
shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may
conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, such
instructions.

            (d) Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of
transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion
thereof shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a
Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person
other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

            (e) Securities distributed to holders of Book-Entry Preferred
Securities (as defined in the applicable Trust Agreement) upon the dissolution
of the Trust shall be distributed in the form of one or more Global Securities
registered in the name of a Depositary or its nominee, and deposited with the
Securities Registrar, as custodian for such Depositary, or with such Depositary,
for credit by the Depositary to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners
of the Securities represented thereby (or such other accounts as they may
direct). Securities distributed to holders of Preferred Securities other than
Book-Entry Preferred Securities upon the dissolution of the Trust shall not be
issued in the form of a Global Security or any other form intended to facilitate
book-entry trading in beneficial interests in such Securities.

            (f) The Depositary or its nominee, as the registered owner of a
Global Security, shall be the Holder of such Global Security for all purposes
under this Indenture and the Securities, and owners of beneficial interests in a
Global Security shall hold such interests pursuant to the Applicable Depositary
Procedures. Accordingly, any such owner's beneficial interest in a Global
Security shall be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be
effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or
its Depositary Participants. The Securities Registrar and the Trustee shall be
entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes of this Indenture relating
to a Global Security (including the payment of principal and interest thereon
and the giving of instructions or directions by owners of beneficial interests
therein and the giving of notices) as the sole Holder of the Security and shall
have no obligations to the owners of beneficial interests therein. Neither the
Trustee nor the Securities Registrar shall have any liability in respect of any
transfers effected by the Depositary.

            (g) The rights of owners of beneficial interests in a Global
Security shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to
those established by law and agreements between such owners and the Depositary
and/or its Depositary Participants.

            (h) No holder of any beneficial interest in any Global Security held
on its behalf by a Depositary shall have any rights under this Indenture with
respect to such Global Security, and such Depositary may be treated by the
Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the owner of
such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. None of the Company, the
Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee will have any responsibility
or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on
account of beneficial

                                       26
<PAGE>
ownership interests of a Global Security or maintaining, supervising or
reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the
Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any
written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by a Depositary or
impair, as between a Depositary and such holders of beneficial interests, the
operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the
Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of any Security.

            SECTION 3.5. Registration, Transfer and Exchange Generally.

            (a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office
a register (the "Securities Register") in which the registrar and transfer agent
with respect to the Securities (the "Securities Registrar"), subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, shall provide for the registration
of Securities and of transfers and exchanges of Securities. The Trustee shall at
all times also be the Securities Registrar. The provisions of Article VI shall
apply to the Trustee in its role as Securities Registrar.

            (b) Subject to compliance with Section 2.2(b), upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any Security at the offices or agencies of the
Company designated for that purpose the Company shall execute, and the Trustee
upon receipt of a Company order shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of
the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of any
authorized denominations of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

            (c) At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for
other Securities of any authorized denominations, of like tenor and 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 Trustee upon receipt of a Company order shall
authenticate and deliver, the Securities that the Holder making the exchange is
entitled to receive.

            (d) All Securities issued upon any 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 transfer or exchange.

            (e) Every Security presented or surrendered for 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 Securities Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or
such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing.

            (f) No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any transfer or
exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any transfer or exchange of Securities.

            (g) Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be required pursuant
to the provisions of this Section 3.5 (g): (i) to issue, register the transfer
of or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of business
fifteen (15) days before the day of selection for redemption of Securities
pursuant to Article XI and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing
of the notice of redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any
Security so

                                       27

selected for redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any such
Security to be redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed.

            (h) The Company shall designate an office or offices or agency or
agencies where Securities may be surrendered for registration or transfer or
exchange. The Company initially designates the Corporate Trust Office as its
office and agency for such purposes. The Company shall give prompt written
notice to the Trustee and to the Holders of any change in the location of any
such office or agency.

            (i) The Securities may only be transferred to a "Qualified
Purchaser" as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment Company
Act. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Registrar shall be responsible for
ascertaining whether any transfer hereunder complies with the registration
provisions of or any exemptions from the Securities Act, applicable state
securities laws or the applicable laws of any other jurisdiction, ERISA, the
United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Investment
Company Act; provided, that if a certificate is specifically required by the
express terms of this Section 3.5 to be delivered to the Trustee or the
Securities Registrar by a Holder or transferee of a Security, the Trustee and
the Securities Registrar shall be under a duty to receive and examine the same
to determine whether or not the certificate substantially conforms on its face
to the requirements of this Indenture and shall promptly notify the party
delivering the same if such certificate does not comply with such terms.

            SECTION 3.6. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

            (a) If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee together
with such security or indemnity as may be required by the Trustee to save the
Company and the Trustee harmless, the Company shall execute and the Trustee upon
receipt of a Company order shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a
new Security of like tenor and aggregate principal amount and bearing a number
not contemporaneously outstanding.

            (b) If there shall be delivered to the Trustee (i) evidence to its
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such
security or indemnity as may be required by it to save each of the Company and
the Trustee 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 receipt of a Company order the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen
Security, a new Security of like tenor and aggregate principal amount as such
destroyed, lost or stolen Security, and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding.

            (c) If 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 such Security.

            (d) Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section 3.6,
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.

                                       28
<PAGE>
            (e) Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section 3.6 in lieu
of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the
mutilated, 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 duly issued hereunder.

            (f) The provisions of this Section 3.6 are exclusive and shall
preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to
the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

            SECTION 3.7. Persons Deemed Owners.

            The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee
shall 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 any
interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the
Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

            SECTION 3.8. Cancellation.

            All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer or
exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be
delivered to the Trustee, and any such Securities and Securities surrendered
directly to the Trustee for any such purpose shall be promptly canceled by it.
The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any
Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder that the Company may
have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be
promptly canceled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu
of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section 3.8,
except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities shall
be retained or disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary
practices and the Trustee shall deliver to the Company a certificate of such
disposition.

            SECTION 3.9. Reserved.

            SECTION 3.10. Reserved.

            SECTION 3.11. Agreed Tax Treatment.

            Each Security issued hereunder shall provide that the Company and,
by its acceptance or acquisition of a Security or a beneficial interest therein,
the Holder of, and any Person that acquires a direct or indirect beneficial
interest in, such Security, intend and agree to treat such Security as
indebtedness of the Company for United States Federal, state and local tax
purposes and to treat the Preferred Securities (including but not limited to all
payments and proceeds with respect to the Preferred Securities) as an undivided
beneficial ownership interest in the Securities (and any other Trust property)
(and payments and proceeds therefrom, respectively) for United States Federal,
state and local tax purposes. The provisions of this Indenture shall be
interpreted to further this intention and agreement of the parties.

            SECTION 3.12. CUSIP Numbers.

            The Company in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers (if
then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers in
notices of redemption and other similar or related materials as a convenience to
Holders; provided, that any such notice or other materials may state that no
representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed
on the Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption or other materials
and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed
on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect
in or omission of such numbers.

                                   ARTICLE IV

            SECTION 4.1. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

            This Indenture shall, upon Company Request, 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 as otherwise provided
in this Section 4.1) and the Trustee, on written demand of and at the expense of
the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture, when

            (a) either

                  (i) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered
            (other than (A) Securities that have been mutilated, destroyed, lost
            or stolen and that have been replaced or paid as provided in Section
            3.6 and (B) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been
            deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company
            and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust
            as provided in Section 10.2) have been delivered to the Trustee for
            cancellation; or

                  under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving
                  of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the
                  expense, of the Company,

            and the Company, in the case of subclause (ii)(A), (B) or (C) above,
            has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust
            funds in trust for such purpose (x) an amount in the currency or

            provide, not later than the due date of any payment, money in an
            amount or (z) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient, in the
            opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
            accountants expressed in a

            discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore
            delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal and any
            premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) to the date
            of such deposit (in the case of Securities that have become due and
            payable) or to the Stated Maturity (or any date of principal
            repayment upon early maturity) or Redemption Date, as the case may
            be;

the Company to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.11 and, if money shall
have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (a)(ii) of this
Section 4.1, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.2 and Section

the principal and any premium and interest (including any Additional Interest)
for the payment of which such money or obligations have been deposited with or
received by the Trustee. Moneys held by the Trustee under this Section 4.2 shall
not be subject to the claims of holders of Senior Debt under Article XII.

every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than twenty five percent
(25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities may declare
the principal amount of all the Securities to be due and payable immediately, by
a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders),
provided, that if, upon an Event of Default, the Trustee or the Holders of not
less than twenty five percent (25%) in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities fail to declare the principal of all the Outstanding Securities to be
immediately due and payable, the holders of at least twenty five percent (25%)

            sufficient to pay:

                        (A) all overdue installments of interest on all

                  that have become due otherwise than by such declaration of
                  acceleration and interest (including any Additional Interest)
                  thereon at the rate borne by the Securities, and

            due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as
            provided in Section 5.13;

provided, that if the Holders of such Securities fail to annul such declaration
and waive such default, the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate
Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities then outstanding shall also have
the right to rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences by written
notice to the Property Trustee, the Company and the Trustee, subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in paragraph (b) of this Section 5.2.

consequent thereon.

Trustee.

            (a) The Company covenants that if:

                  (i) default is made in the payment of any installment of
            interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security when
            such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for
            a period of thirty (30) days, or

                  (ii) default is made in the payment of the principal of and
            any premium on any Security at the Maturity thereof,

benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable
on such Securities for principal and any premium and interest (including any
Additional Interest) and, in addition thereto, all amounts owing the Trustee
under Section 6.6.

            (b) 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 the
Securities, wherever situated.

            (c) If an Event of Default with respect to 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 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 5.4. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

            In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or similar judicial
proceeding relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities),
its property or its creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by
intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions
authorized hereunder in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee
allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized
to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on
any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver,
assignee, trustee, liquidator, 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 first pay to the Trustee any
amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts owing the
Trustee, any predecessor Trustee and other Persons under Section 6.6.

            SECTION 5.5. Trustee May Enforce Claim 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,
subject to Article XII and after provision for the payment of all the amounts
owing the Trustee, any predecessor Trustee and other Persons under Section 6.6,
be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which
such judgment has been recovered.

            If the Trustee, any Holder or any holder of Preferred Securities 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, such Holder or such holder of
Preferred Securities, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee, such
Holders and such holder of Preferred Securities 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, such Holder and such holder of Preferred Securities shall continue as
though no such proceeding had been instituted.

            SECTION 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

            Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.6(f), no right or remedy
herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or 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 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

            No delay or omission of the Trustee, any Holder of any Securities or
any holder of any Preferred 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 V or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders and
the right and remedy given to the holders of Preferred Securities by Section 5.8
may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by
the Trustee, the Holders or the holders of Preferred Securities, as the case may
be.

            SECTION 5.12. Control by Holders.

            The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities (or, as the case may be, the holders of a
majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities) 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; provided, that:

            (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
with this Indenture,

            (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction, and

            (c) subject to the provisions of Section 6.2, the Trustee shall have
the right to decline to follow such direction if a Responsible Officer or
Officers of the Trustee shall, in good faith, reasonably determine that the
proceeding so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not joining
in any such direction or would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

            SECTION 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults.

            (a) The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities or the holders of not less than a majority
in aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities may waive any past
Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except an Event of Default:

                  (i) in the payment of the principal of or any premium or
            interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security (unless
            such Event of Default has been cured and the Company has paid to or
            deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all installments
            of interest (including any Additional Interest) due and past due and
            all principal of and any premium on all Securities due otherwise
            than by acceleration), or

                  (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under
            Article IX cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each
            Holder of any Outstanding Security.

            (b) Any such waiver shall be deemed to be on behalf of the Holders
of all the Securities or, in the case of a waiver by holders of Preferred
Securities issued by such Trust, by all holders of Preferred Securities.

            (c) Upon any such waiver, such Event of 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 Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

            SECTION 5.14. Undertaking for Costs.

            All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security
by his or her 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 and
expenses, against any party litigant in

                                       37
<PAGE>
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 5.14
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 ten percent
(10%) in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, or to any
suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the
principal of or any premium on the Security after the Stated Maturity or any
interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security after it is due and
payable.

            SECTION 5.15. Waiver of Usury, 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 usury, 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.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                                   THE TRUSTEE

            SECTION 6.1. Corporate Trustee Required.

            There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder with respect to the
Securities. The Trustee shall be a corporation or national banking association
organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state
thereof, authorized to exercise corporate trust powers, having or having a
Parent that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, subject
to supervision or examination by Federal or state authority and having an office
within the United States. If such entity publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of such supervising or
examining authority, then, for the purposes of this Section 6.1, the combined
capital and surplus of such entity shall be deemed to be its combined capital
and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If
at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 6.1, it shall resign immediately in the manner and
with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article VI.

            SECTION 6.2. Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

            Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

                  (i) 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

                  (ii) 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

                                       38
<PAGE>
            certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to
            the requirements of this Indenture; provided, that in the case of
            any such certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof are
            specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee
            shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or
            not they substantially conform on their face to the requirements of
            this Indenture.

            (b) If an Event of Default known to the Trustee has occurred and is
continuing, the Trustee shall, prior to the receipt of directions, if any, from
the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities (or, if applicable, from the holders of at least a
majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities), exercise such
of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree
of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use
under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

            (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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. Whether or not therein expressly
so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or
affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be
subject to the provisions of this Section 6.2. To the extent that, at law or in
equity, the Trustee has duties and liabilities relating to the Holders, the
Trustee shall not be liable to any Holder or any holder of Preferred Securities
for the Trustee's good faith reliance on the provisions of this Indenture. The
provisions of this Indenture, to the extent that they restrict the duties and
liabilities of the Trustee otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by
the Company and the Holders and the holders of Preferred Securities to replace
such other duties and liabilities of the Trustee.

            (d) No provisions of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve
the Trustee from liability with respect to matters that are within the authority
of the Trustee under this Indenture for its own negligent action, negligent
failure to act or willful misconduct, except that:

                  (i) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error or judgment
            made in good faith by an authorized officer of the Trustee, unless
            it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining
            the pertinent facts;

                  (ii) 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 at least a majority
            in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities (or, as
            the case may be, the holders of a majority in aggregate Liquidation
            Amount of Preferred Securities) relating to the time, method and
            place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
            Trustee under this Indenture; and

                  (iii) the Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on
            any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in
            writing with the Company and money held by the Trustee in trust
            hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the
            extent required by law.

                                       39
<PAGE>
            (e) If at any time the Trustee hereunder is not the same Person as
the Property Trustee under the Trust Agreement:

                  (i) whenever a reference is made herein to the dissolution,
            termination or liquidation of the Trust, the Trustee shall be
            entitled to assume that no such dissolution, termination, or
            liquidation has occurred so long as the Securities are or continue
            to be registered in the name of such Property Trustee, and the
            Trustee shall be charged with notice or knowledge of such
            dissolution, termination or liquidation only upon written notice
            thereof given to the Trustee by the Depositor under the Trust
            Agreement; and

                  (ii) the Trustee shall not be charged with notice or knowledge
            that any Person is a holder of Preferred Securities or Common
            Securities issued by the Trust or whether any group of holders of
            Preferred Securities constitutes any specified percentage of all
            outstanding Preferred Securities for any purpose under this
            Indenture, unless and until the Trustee is furnished with a list of
            holders by such Property Trustee and the aggregate Liquidation
            Amount of the Preferred Securities then outstanding. The Trustee may
            conclusively rely and shall be protected in relying on such list.

            (f) Notwithstanding Section 1.10, the Trustee shall not, and shall
not be deemed to, owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of any of the Trust
Securities issued by the Trust and shall not be liable to any such holder (other
than for the willful misconduct or negligence of the Trustee) if the Trustee in
good faith (i) pays over or distributes to a registered Holder of the Securities
or to the Company or to any other Person, cash, property or securities to which
such holders of such Trust Securities shall be entitled or (ii) takes any action
or omits to take any action at the request of the Holder of such Securities.
Nothing in this paragraph shall affect the obligation of any other such Person
to hold such payment for the benefit of, and to pay such amount over to, such
holders of Preferred Securities or Common Securities or their representatives.

            SECTION 6.3. Notice of Defaults.

            Within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of any default actually
known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall give the Holders notice of such default
unless such default shall have been cured or waived; provided, that except in
the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or any premium or
interest on any Securities, the Trustee shall be fully protected in withholding
the 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 determines that withholding the notice is in the interest of holders
of Securities; and provided, further, that in the case of any default of the
character specified in Section 5.1(c), no such notice to Holders shall be given
until at least thirty (30) days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of
this Section 6.3, the term "default" means any event which is, or after notice
or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default.

            SECTION 6.4. Certain Rights of Trustee.

            Subject to the provisions of Section 6.2:

            (a) the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected
in acting or refraining from acting in good faith and in accordance with the
terms hereof upon any resolution,

                                       40
<PAGE>
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction,
consent, order, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document believed by it
to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or
parties;

            (b) if (i) in performing its duties under this Indenture the Trustee
is required to decide between alternative courses of action, (ii) in construing
any of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee finds ambiguous or
inconsistent with any other provisions contained herein or (iii) the Trustee is
unsure of the application of any provision of this Indenture, then, except as to
any matter as to which the Holders are entitled to decide under the terms of
this Indenture, the Trustee shall deliver a notice to the Company requesting the
Company's written instruction as to the course of action to be taken and the
Trustee shall take such action, or refrain from taking such action, as the
Trustee shall be instructed in writing to take, or to refrain from taking, by
the Company; provided, that if the Trustee does not receive such instructions
from the Company within ten Business Days after it has delivered such notice or
such reasonably shorter period of time set forth in such notice the Trustee may,
but shall be under no duty to, take such action, or refrain from taking such
action, as the Trustee shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the
Holders, in which event the Trustee shall have no liability except for its own
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct;

            (c) any request or direction of the Company shall be sufficiently
evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order and any resolution of the Board
of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution;

            (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel (which counsel may be
counsel to the Trustee, the Company or any of its Affiliates, and may include
any of its employees) and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel
shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance
thereon;

            (e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of
any of the Holders or any holder of Preferred Securities pursuant to this
Indenture, unless such Holders (or such holders of Preferred Securities) shall
have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it
against the costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses)
and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or
direction, including reasonable advances as may be requested by the Trustee;

            (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,
indenture, note or other paper or document, but the Trustee in its discretion
may make such inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see
fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such inquiry or investigation,
it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company,
personally or by agent or attorney;

            (g) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, attorneys,
custodians or nominees and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any
misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent, attorney, custodian or
nominee appointed with due care by it hereunder;

                                       41
<PAGE>
            (h) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee
shall deem it desirable to receive instructions with respect to enforcing any
remedy or right or taking any other action with respect to enforcing any remedy
or right hereunder, the Trustees (i) may request instructions from the Holders
(which instructions may only be given by the Holders of the same aggregate
principal amount of Outstanding Securities as would be entitled to direct the
Trustee under this Indenture in respect of such remedy, right or action), (ii)
may refrain from enforcing such remedy or right or taking such action until such
instructions are received and (iii) shall be protected in acting in accordance
with such instructions;

            (i) except as otherwise expressly provided by this Indenture, the
Trustee shall not be under any obligation to take any action that is
discretionary under the provisions of this Indenture;

            (j) without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee
under applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in
connection with any bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding referred to in
clauses (d) or (e) of the definition of Event of Default, such expenses
(including legal fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) and the
compensation for such services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any bankruptcy laws or law relating to creditors rights
generally;

            (k) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee
shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking,
suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence
be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part,
conclusively rely upon an Officers' Certificate addressing such matter, which,
upon receipt of such request, shall be promptly delivered by the Company;

            (l) the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Event of
Default unless either (i) a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual
knowledge or (ii) the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from
the Company or a Holder; and

            (m) in the event that the Trustee is also acting as Paying Agent,
Authenticating Agent, Securities Registrar or Calculation Agent hereunder, the
rights and protections afforded to the Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall
also be afforded such Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent, or Securities
Registrar.

            SECTION 6.5. May Hold Securities.

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

            SECTION 6.6. Compensation; Reimbursement; Indemnity.

            (a) The Company agrees:

                  (i) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable
            compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder in such
            amounts as the Company and the Trustee shall

                                       42
<PAGE>
            agree from time to time (which compensation shall not be limited by
            any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of
            an express trust);

                  (ii) to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all
            reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by
            the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture
            (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and
            disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense,
            disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence,
            bad faith or willful misconduct; and

                  (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to
            indemnify the Trustee and its Affiliates, and their officers,
            directors, shareholders, agents, representatives and employees for,
            and to hold them harmless against, any loss, damage, liability, tax
            (other than income, franchise or other taxes imposed on amounts paid
            pursuant to (i) or (ii) hereof), penalty, expense or claim of any
            kind or nature whatsoever incurred without negligence, bad faith or
            willful misconduct on its part arising out of or in connection with
            the acceptance or administration of this trust or the performance of
            the Trustee's duties hereunder, 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.

            (b) To secure the Company's payment obligations in this Section 6.6,
the Company hereby grants and pledges to the Trustee and the Trustee shall have
a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the
Trustee, other than money or property held in trust to pay principal and
interest on particular Securities. Such lien shall survive the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture or the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

            (c) The obligations of the Company under this Section 6.6 shall
survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the earlier
resignation or removal of the Trustee.

            (d) In no event shall the Trustee be liable for any indirect,
special, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever,
including, but not limited to, lost profits, even if the Trustee has been
advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of
action.

            (e) In no event shall the Trustee be liable for any failure or delay
in the performance of its obligations hereunder because of circumstances beyond
its control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether
declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, government action,
including any laws, ordinances, regulations, governmental action or the like
which delay, restrict or prohibit the providing of the services contemplated by
this Indenture.

            SECTION 6.7. 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 VI shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 6.8.

            (b) The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice
thereof to the Company.

                                       43
<PAGE>
            (c) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Trustee may be removed at any time by the Company by a Board
Resolution. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Trustee may be removed by Act of the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, delivered to the Trustee and to
the Company.

            (d) 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 reason, at
a time when no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee, and
such successor Trustee and the retiring Trustee shall comply with the applicable
requirements of Section 6.8. 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 reason, at a time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Holders, by Act of the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee, and such successor Trustee and the retiring Trustee shall
comply with the applicable requirements of Section 6.8. If no successor Trustee
shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted
appointment within sixty (60) days after the giving of a notice of resignation
by the Trustee or the removal of the Trustee in the manner required by Section
6.8, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six
months may, on behalf of such Holder and all others similarly situated, and any
resigning Trustee may, at the expense of the Company, petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Business.

            Any Person into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with

conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any Person
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the
Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, without the execution
or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties

conversion or consolidation or as otherwise provided above in this Section 6.9
to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the
Securities so authenticated, and in case any Securities shall not have been
authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities
either in the name of any predecessor Trustee or in the name of such successor
Trustee, and in all cases the certificate of authentication shall have the full
force which it is provided anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture that
the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

            SECTION 6.10. 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 neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes any
responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to
the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. Neither the

respect to the Securities, which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the
Trustee to authenticate Securities issued upon original issue and upon exchange,
registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section
3.6, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this
Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated
by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the
authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee's
certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include

times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United
States of America, or of any State or Territory thereof or the District of
Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a
combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to
supervision or examination by Federal or state authority. If such Authenticating
Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually pursuant to law or to the
requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes
of this Section 6.11 the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating
Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its
most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating
Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 6.11, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner
and with the effect specified in this Section 6.11.

                                       45

            (b) Any Person into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be
a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate
trust business of an Authenticating Agent shall be the successor Authenticating
Agent hereunder, provided such Person shall be otherwise eligible under this
Section 6.11, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on
the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

            (c) An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written
notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time
terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof
to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of
resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 6.11, the Trustee may appoint a successor
Authenticating Agent eligible under the provisions of this Section 6.11, which
shall be acceptable to the Company, and shall give notice of such appointment to
all Holders. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its
appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties
of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an
Authenticating Agent.

            (d) The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time
to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section 6.11 in such
amounts as the Company and the Authenticating Agent shall agree from time to
time.

circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, notice that such
money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall
not be less than thirty (30) days from the date of such publication, any
unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

            SECTION 10.3. Statement as to Compliance.

            The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within one hundred and
twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after
the date hereof, an Officers' Certificate covering the preceding calendar year,
stating whether or not to the knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in
default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and
conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period of grace or
requirement of notice provided hereunder), and if the Company shall be in
default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which
they may have knowledge. The delivery requirements of this Section 10.3 may be
satisfied by compliance with Section 8.16(a) of the Trust Agreement.

            SECTION 10.4. Calculation Agent.

            (a) The Company hereby agrees that for so long as any of the
Securities remain Outstanding, there will at all times be an agent appointed to
calculate LIBOR in respect of each Interest Payment Date in accordance with the
terms of Schedule A (the "Calculation Agent"). The Company has initially
appointed the Property Trustee as Calculation Agent for purposes of determining
LIBOR for each Interest Payment Date. The Calculation Agent may be removed by
the Company at any time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Property
Trustee holds any of the Securities, the Calculation Agent shall be the Property
Trustee. If the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act as such or is
removed by the Company, the Company will promptly appoint as a replacement
Calculation Agent the London office of a leading bank which is engaged in
transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the international Eurodollar market and
which does not control or is not controlled by or under common control with the
Company or its Affiliates. The Calculation Agent may not resign its duties
without a successor having been duly appointed.

            (b) The Calculation Agent shall be required to agree that, as soon
as possible after 11:00 a.m. (London time) on each LIBOR Determination Date (as
defined in Schedule A), but in

                                       53
<PAGE>
no event later than 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the Business Day immediately
following each LIBOR Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will calculate
the interest rate (the Interest Payment shall be rounded to the nearest cent,
with half a cent being rounded upwards) for the related Interest Payment Date,
and will communicate such rate and amount to the Company, the Trustee, each
Paying Agent and the Depositary. The Calculation Agent will also specify to the
Company the quotations upon which the foregoing rates and amounts are based and,
in any event, the Calculation Agent shall notify the Company before 5:00 p.m.
(London time) on each LIBOR Determination Date that either: (i) it has
determined or is in the process of determining the foregoing rates and amounts
or (ii) it has not determined and is not in the process of determining the
foregoing rates and amounts, together with its reasons therefor. The Calculation
Agent's determination of the foregoing rates and amounts for any Interest
Payment Date will (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding upon
all parties. For the sole purpose of calculating the interest rate for the
Securities, "Business Day" shall be defined as any day on which dealings in
deposits in Dollars are transacted in the London interbank market.

            SECTION 10.5. Additional Tax Sums.

            So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if
(a) the Trust is the Holder of all of the Outstanding Securities and (b) a Tax
Event described in clause (i) or (iii) in the definition of Tax Event in Section
1.1 hereof has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall pay to the Trust
(and its permitted successors or assigns under the related Trust Agreement) for
so long as the Trust (or its permitted successor or assignee) is the registered
holder of the Outstanding Securities, such amounts as may be necessary in order
that the amount of Distributions (including any Additional Interest Amount (as
defined in the Trust Agreement)) then due and payable by the Trust on the
Preferred Securities and Common Securities that at any time remain outstanding
in accordance with the terms thereof shall not be reduced as a result of any
Additional Taxes arising from such Tax Event (additional such amounts payable by
the Company to the Trust, the "Additional Tax Sums"). Whenever in this Indenture
or the Securities there is a reference in any context to the payment of
principal of or interest on the Securities, such mention shall be deemed to
include mention of the payments of the Additional Tax Sums provided for in this
Section 10.5 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Tax Sums are, were
or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 10.5 and express mention of the payment of Additional Tax Sums (if
applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding
Additional Tax Sums in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not
made.

            SECTION 10.6. Additional Covenants.

            (a) The Company covenants and agrees with each Holder of Securities
that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, it shall not
(i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase,
acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of the
Company's capital stock (for the avoidance of doubt, the term "capital stock"
includes both common stock and preferred stock of the Company), (ii) vote in
favor of or permit or otherwise allow any of its subsidiaries to declare or pay
any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a
liquidation payment with respect to or otherwise retire, any shares of such
subsidiaries preferred stock (for the avoidance of doubt, whether such preferred
stock is perpetual or otherwise), or (iii) make any payment of principal of or
any interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt
securities of the

                                       54
<PAGE>
Company that rank pari passu in all respects with or junior in interest to the
Securities (other than (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
any 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 such Event of Default, (B) as a result of an
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
Rights Plan, the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any Rights
Plan or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto or (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).

            (b) The Company also covenants with each Holder of Securities (i) to
hold, directly or indirectly, one hundred percent (100%) of the Common
Securities of the Trust, provided, that any permitted successor of the Company
hereunder may succeed to the Company's ownership of such Common Securities, (ii)
as holder of such Common Securities, not to voluntarily dissolve, wind-up or
liquidate the Trust other than (A) in connection with a distribution of the
Securities to the holders of the Preferred Securities in liquidation of the
Trust or (B) in connection with certain mergers, consolidations or amalgamations
permitted by the Trust Agreement and (iii) to use its reasonable commercial
efforts, consistent with the terms and provisions of the Trust Agreement, to
cause the Trust to continue to be taxable as a grantor trust and not as a
corporation for United States Federal income tax purposes.

            (c) The Company also agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to
meet the requirements to qualify, effective for the fiscal year ending December
31, 2005, as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended.

            SECTION 10.7. Waiver of Covenants.

            The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any
covenant or condition contained in Section 10.6 if, before or after the time for
such compliance, the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities shall, by Act of such Holders, and at least
a majority of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities then
outstanding, by consent 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 in respect of any such covenant or condition shall
remain in full force and effect.

                                       55
<PAGE>
            SECTION 10.8. Treatment of Securities.

            The Company will treat the Securities as indebtedness, and the
amounts, other than payments of principal, payable in respect of the principal
amount of such Securities as interest, for all U.S. federal income tax purposes.
All payments in respect of the Securities will be made free and clear of U.S.
withholding tax to any beneficial owner thereof that has provided an Internal
Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8BEN (or any substitute or successor form)
establishing its U.S. or non-U.S. status for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
or any other applicable form establishing a complete exemption from U.S.
withholding tax.

            SECTION 10.9. Financial Covenants

            For so long as the Debentures shall remain outstanding, the Net
Worth of the Company and all of its subsidiaries shall at all times equal or
exceed $100,000,000. Further, if at any time the Net Worth of the Company does
not exceed at least $150,000,000, at least $35,000,000 of such Net Worth must be
perpetual preferred stock which has a fixed rate payment obligation and in all
respects be subordinate to the Debentures ("Perpetual Preferred Securities").

            For purposes of this section 10.9, "Net Worth" is defined to include
all shareholder equity as set forth in the financial statements filed
periodically with the Commission and shall in all cases include issued and
outstanding Perpetual Preferred Securities , if any, in the calculation of Net
Worth. In the event the Company ceases to file financial statements with the
Commission, the financial statements of the Company prepared on a quarterly and
annual basis shall continue to be prepared in accordance with the Commission's
rules and regulations, Net Worth will continue be calculated to include all
shareholder equity, and shall in all cases include issued and outstanding
Perpetual Preferred Securities, if any .

            SECTION 11.1. Optional Redemption.

            The Company may, at its option, on any Interest Payment Date, on or
after October 30, 2010, redeem the Securities in whole at any time or in part
from time to time, at a Redemption Price equal to one hundred percent (100%) of
the principal amount thereof (or of the redeemed portion thereof, as

interest, including any Additional Interest, through but excluding the date
fixed as the Redemption Date (the "Optional Redemption Price").

            SECTION 11.2. Special Event Redemption.

Additional Interest, through but excluding the date fixed as the Redemption Date

                                       56
<PAGE>
            SECTION 11.3. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

            The election of the Company to redeem any Securities, in whole or in
part, shall be evidenced by or pursuant to a Board Resolution. In case of any
redemption at the election of the Company, the Company shall, not less than
forty-five (45) days and not more than seventy-five (75) days prior to the
Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee),
notify the Trustee and the Property Trustee under the Trust Agreement in writing
of such date and of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed and
provide the additional information required to be included in the notice or
notices contemplated by Section 11.5. In the case of any redemption of
Securities, in whole or in part, (a) prior to the expiration of any restriction
on such redemption provided in this Indenture or the Securities or (b) pursuant
to an election of the Company which is subject to a condition specified in this
Indenture or the Securities, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an
Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel evidencing compliance with such
restriction or condition.

            SECTION 11.4. Selection of Securities to be Redeemed.

            (a) If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the
particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected and redeemed on a pro

Trustee from the Outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption,
provided, that the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Security
shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum
authorized denomination) for such Security.

            (b) The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the
Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities 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 Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the
principal amount of such Security that has been or is to be redeemed.

            (c) The provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 11.4
shall not apply with respect to any redemption affecting only a single Security,
whether such Security is to be redeemed in whole or in part. In the case of any
such redemption in part, the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the
Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than
the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security.

            SECTION 11.5. Notice of Redemption.

            (a) Notice of redemption shall be given not later than the thirtieth
(30th) day, and not earlier than the sixtieth (60th) day, prior to the
Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in
part, (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Property Trustee
under the related Trust Agreement).

            (b) With respect to Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in part,
each notice of redemption shall state:

                  (i) the Redemption Date;

                                       57
<PAGE>
                  (ii) the Redemption Price or, if the Redemption Price cannot
            be calculated prior to the time the notice is required to be sent,
            the estimate of the Redemption Price, as calculated by the Company,
            together with a statement that it is an estimate and that the actual
            Redemption Price will be calculated on the fifth Business Day prior
            to the Redemption Date (and if an estimate is provided, a further
            notice shall be sent of the actual Redemption Price on the date that
            such Redemption Price is calculated);

                  (iii) if less than all Outstanding Securities are to be
            redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial
            redemption, the respective principal amounts) of the particular
            Securities to be redeemed;

                  (iv) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will
            become due and payable upon each such Security or portion thereof,
            and that any interest (including any Additional Interest) on such
            Security or such portion, as the case may be, shall cease to accrue
            on and after said date; and

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

            (c) Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed, in whole or
in part, at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the
Company's request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company
and shall be irrevocable. The notice if mailed in the manner provided above
shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the
Holder receives such notice. In any case, a failure to give such notice by mail
or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Security designated for
redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the
proceedings for the redemption of any other Security.

            SECTION 11.6. Deposit of Redemption Price.

            Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Redemption Date
specified in the notice of redemption given as provided in Section 11.5, the
Company will deposit with the Trustee or with one or more Paying Agents (or if
the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company will segregate and
hold in trust as provided in Section 10.2) an amount of money sufficient to pay
the Redemption Price of, and any accrued interest (including any Additional
Interest) on, all the Securities (or portions thereof) that are to be redeemed
on that date.

            SECTION 11.7. Payment of Securities Called for Redemption.

            (a) If any notice of redemption has been given as provided in
Section 11.5, the Securities or portion of Securities with respect to which such
notice has been given shall become due and payable on the date and at the place
or places stated in such notice at the applicable Redemption Price, together
with accrued interest (including any Additional Interest) to the Redemption
Date. On presentation and surrender of such Securities at a Place of Payment
specified in such notice, the Securities or the specified portions thereof shall
be paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable Redemption Price, together
with accrued interest (including any Additional Interest) to the Redemption
Date.

            (b) Upon presentation of any Security redeemed in part only, the
Company shall execute and the Trustee upon receipt of a Company order shall
authenticate and deliver to the

                                       58
<PAGE>
Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities, of
authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed
portion of the Security so presented and having the same Original Issue Date,
Stated Maturity and terms.

            (c) If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon
surrender thereof for redemption, the principal of and any premium on such
Security shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate
prescribed therefor in the Security.

                                  ARTICLE XII

                           SUBORDINATION OF SECURITIES

            SECTION 12.1. Securities Subordinate to Senior Debt.

            The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Security, by
its acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and
in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Article XII, the payment of the
principal of and any premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) on
each and all of the Securities are hereby expressly made subordinate and subject
in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt.

            SECTION 12.2. No Payment When Senior Debt in Default; Payment Over
of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc.

            (a) In the event and during the continuation of any default by the
Company in the payment of any principal of or any premium or interest on any
Senior Debt (following any grace period, if applicable) when the same becomes
due and payable, whether at maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by
declaration of acceleration or otherwise, then, upon written notice of such
default to the Company by the holders of such Senior Debt or any trustee
therefor, unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall
have ceased to exist, no direct or indirect payment (in cash, property,
securities, by set-off or otherwise) shall be made or agreed to be made on
account of the principal of or any premium or interest (including any Additional
Interest) on any of the Securities, or in respect of any redemption, repayment,
retirement, purchase or other acquisition of any of the Securities.

            (b) In the event of a bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding
described in clause (d) or (e) of the definition of Event of Default (each such
event, if any, herein sometimes referred to as a "Proceeding"), all Senior Debt
(including any interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any such
proceedings) shall first be paid in full before any payment or distribution,
whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any Holder of
any of the Securities on account thereof. Any payment or distribution, whether
in cash, securities or other property (other than securities of the Company or
any other entity provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the
payment of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in these
subordination provisions with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by the
Securities, to the payment of all Senior Debt at the time outstanding and to any
securities issued in respect thereof under any such plan of reorganization or
readjustment), which would otherwise (but for these subordination provisions) be
payable or deliverable in respect of the Securities shall be paid or delivered
directly to the holders of Senior Debt in accordance with the priorities

                                       59
<PAGE>
then existing among such holders until all Senior Debt (including any interest
thereon accruing after the commencement of any Proceeding) shall have been paid
in full.

            (c) In the event of any Proceeding, after payment in full of all
sums owing with respect to Senior Debt, the Holders of the Securities, together
with the holders of any obligations of the Company ranking on a parity with the
Securities, shall be entitled to be paid from the remaining assets of the
Company the amounts at the time due and owing on account of unpaid principal of
and any premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) on the
Securities and such other obligations before any payment or other distribution,
whether in cash, property or otherwise, shall be made on account of any capital
stock or any obligations of the Company ranking junior to the Securities and
such other obligations. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or
distribution of any character or any security, whether in cash, securities or
other property (other than securities of the Company or any other entity
provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the payment of which is
subordinate, at least to the extent provided in these subordination provisions
with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities, to the payment of
all Senior Debt at the time outstanding and to any securities issued in respect
thereof under any such plan of reorganization or readjustment) shall be received
by the Trustee or any Holder in contravention of any of the terms hereof and
before all Senior Debt shall have been paid in full, such payment or
distribution or security shall be received in trust for the benefit of, and
shall be paid over or delivered and transferred to, the holders of the Senior
Debt at the time outstanding in accordance with the priorities then existing
among such holders for application to the payment of all Senior Debt remaining
unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Debt (including any
interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any Proceeding) in full. In
the event of the failure of the Trustee or any Holder to endorse or assign any
such payment, distribution or security, each holder of Senior Debt is hereby
irrevocably authorized to endorse or assign the same.

            (d) The Trustee and the Holders, at the expense of the Company,
shall take such reasonable action (including the delivery of this Indenture to
an agent for any holders of Senior Debt or consent to the filing of a financing
statement with respect hereto) as may, in the opinion of counsel designated by
the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Debt at the time
outstanding, be necessary or appropriate to assure the effectiveness of the
subordination effected by these provisions.

            (e) The provisions of this Section 12.2 shall not impair any rights,
interests, remedies or powers of any secured creditor of the Company in respect
of any security interest the creation of which is not prohibited by the
provisions of this Indenture.

            (f) The securing of any obligations of the Company, otherwise
ranking on a parity with the Securities or ranking junior to the Securities,
shall not be deemed to prevent such obligations from constituting, respectively,
obligations ranking on a parity with the Securities or ranking junior to the
Securities.

            SECTION 12.3. Payment Permitted If No Default.

            Nothing contained in this Article XII or elsewhere in this Indenture
or in any of the Securities shall prevent (a) the Company, at any time, except
during the pendency of the conditions described in paragraph (a) of Section 12.2
or of any Proceeding referred to in

                                       60
<PAGE>
Section 12.2, from making payments at any time of principal of and any premium
or interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities or (b) the
application by the Trustee of any moneys deposited with it hereunder to the
payment of or on account of the principal of and any premium or interest
(including any Additional Interest) on the Securities or the retention of such
payment by the Holders, if, at the time of such application by the Trustee, it
did not have knowledge (in accordance with Section 12.8) that such payment would
have been prohibited by the provisions of this Article XII, except as provided
in Section 12.8.

            SECTION 12.4. Subrogation to Rights of Holders of Senior Debt.

            Subject to the payment in full of all amounts due or to become due
on all Senior Debt, or the provision for such payment in cash or cash
equivalents or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt,
the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the extent of the payments
or distributions made to the holders of such Senior Debt pursuant to the
provisions of this Article XII (equally and ratably with the holders of all
indebtedness of the Company that by its express terms is subordinated to Senior
Debt of the Company to substantially the same extent as the Securities are
subordinated to the Senior Debt and is entitled to like rights of subrogation by
reason of any payments or distributions made to holders of such Senior Debt) to
the rights of the holders of such Senior Debt to receive payments and
distributions of cash, property and securities applicable to the Senior Debt
until the principal of and any premium and interest (including any Additional
Interest) on the Securities shall be paid in full. For purposes of such
subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Debt of
any cash, property or securities to which the Holders of the Securities or the
Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article XII, and no
payments made pursuant to the provisions of this Article XII to the holders of
Senior Debt by Holders of the Securities or the Trustee, shall, as among the
Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Debt, and the Holders of the
Securities, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company to or on
account of the Senior Debt.

            SECTION 12.5. Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights.

            The provisions of this Article XII are and are intended solely for
the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities on
the one hand and the holders of Senior Debt on the other hand. Nothing contained
in this Article XII or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is
intended to or shall (a) impair, as between the Company and the Holders of the
Securities, the obligations of the Company, which are absolute and
unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of and any
premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities as
and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms,
(b) affect the relative rights against the Company of the Holders of the

            SECTION 12.6. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination.

            Each Holder of a Security by his or her acceptance thereof
authorizes and directs the Trustee on his or her behalf to take such action as

provided in this Article XII and appoints the Trustee his or her
attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

            SECTION 12.7. No Waiver of Subordination Provisions.

            (a) No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Debt to
enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be
prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company
or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any
noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this
Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or
be otherwise charged with.

            (b) Without in any way limiting the generality of paragraph (a) of
this Section 12.7, the holders of Senior Debt may, at any time and from to time,
without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of the
Securities, without incurring responsibility to such Holders of the Securities
and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article
XII or the obligations hereunder of such Holders of the Securities to the
holders of Senior Debt, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the
manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or
alter, Senior Debt, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior Debt
or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Debt
is outstanding, (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property
pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Debt, (iii) release any Person
liable in any manner for the payment of Senior Debt and (iv) exercise or refrain
from exercising any rights against the Company and any other Person.

            SECTION 12.8. Notice to Trustee.

            (a) The Company shall give prompt written notice to a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee of any fact known to the Company that would prohibit the
making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article XII or any other provision of
this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence
of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee
in respect of the Securities, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Company or a holder
of Senior Debt or from any trustee, agent or representative therefor; provided,
that if the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in this
Section 12.8 at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the
terms hereof any monies may become payable for any purpose (including, the
payment of the principal of and any premium on or interest (including any
Additional Interest) on any Security), then, anything herein contained to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to
receive such monies and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were
received and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary that may be
received by it within two Business Days prior to such date.

                                       62
<PAGE>
            (b) The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a
written notice by a Person representing himself or herself to be a holder of
Senior Debt (or a trustee, agent, representative or attorney-in-fact therefor)
to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior Debt (or a
trustee, agent, representative or attorney-in-fact therefor). In the event that
the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with
respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Debt to participate in
any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article XII, the Trustee may
request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Trustee as to the amount of Senior Debt held by such Person, the extent to which
such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any
other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article XII, and
if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such
Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive
such payment.

            SECTION 12.9. Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate of
Liquidating Agent.

            Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred
to in this Article XII, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities shall be
entitled to conclusively rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of
competent jurisdiction in which such Proceeding is pending, or a certificate of
the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee
for the benefit of creditors, agent or other Person making such payment or
distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities, for the
purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or
distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other indebtedness of the
Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or
distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article
XII.

            SECTION 12.10. Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Debt.

            The Trustee, in its capacity as trustee under this Indenture, shall
not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Debt and shall
not be liable to any such holders if it shall in good faith mistakenly pay over
or distribute to Holders of Securities or to the Company or to any other Person
cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be
entitled by virtue of this Article XII or otherwise.

            SECTION 12.11. Rights of Trustee as Holder of Senior Debt;
Preservation of Trustee's Rights.

            The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the
rights set forth in this Article XII with respect to any Senior Debt that may at
any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Debt,
and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as
such holder.

            SECTION 12.12. Article Applicable to Paying Agents.

            If at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have
been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term "Trustee"
as used in this Article XII shall in such case (unless the context otherwise
requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within
its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were
named in this Article XII in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided,
that

                                       63
<PAGE>
Sections 12.8 and 12.11 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the
Company if the Company or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent.

            This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

Trust Agreement are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects):

of the Depositor for United States federal income tax purposes and so that the
Trust will not be deemed to be an "investment company" required to be registered
under the Investment Company Act. In respect thereof, each Administrative
Trustee is authorized to take any action, not inconsistent with applicable law,
the Certificate of Trust or this Trust Agreement, that such Administrative
Trustee determines in his or her discretion to be necessary or desirable for

respect the interests of

                                       14
<PAGE>
the Holders of the Outstanding Preferred Securities. In no event shall the
Administrative Trustees be liable to the Trust or the Holders for any failure to
comply with this Section 2.5 to the extent that such failure results solely from
a change in law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof.

      (d) Any action taken by a Trustee in accordance with its powers shall
constitute the act of and serve to bind the Trust. In dealing with any Trustee
acting on behalf of the Trust, no Person shall be required to inquire into the

entitled to rely conclusively on the power and authority of any Trustee as set
forth in this Trust Agreement.

      The assets of the Trust shall consist of the Trust Property.

      SECTION 2.7. Title to Trust Property.

      (a) Legal title to all Trust Property shall be vested at all times in the
Property Trustee and shall be held and administered by the Property Trustee in
trust for the benefit of the Trust and the Holders in accordance with this Trust
Agreement.

      (b) The Holders shall not have any right or title to the Trust Property
other than the undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Trust
conferred by their Trust Securities and they shall have no right to call for any
partition or division of property, profits or rights of the Trust except as
described below. The Trust Securities shall be personal property giving only the
rights specifically set forth therein and in this Trust Agreement.

                         PAYMENT ACCOUNT; PAYING AGENTS

      SECTION 3.1. Payment Account.

      (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Property Trustee shall establish
the Payment Account. The Property Trustee and the Paying Agent shall have
exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal with respect to the Payment
Account for the purpose of making deposits in and withdrawals from the Payment
Account in accordance with this Trust Agreement. All monies and other property
deposited or held from time to time in the Payment Account shall be held by the
Property Trustee in the Payment Account for the exclusive benefit of the Holders
and for Distribution as herein provided.

      (b) The Property Trustee shall deposit in the Payment Account, promptly
upon receipt, all payments of principal of or interest on, and any other
payments with respect to, the Notes. Amounts held in the Payment Account shall
not be invested by the Property Trustee pending distribution thereof.

<PAGE>
      SECTION 3.2. Appointment of Paying Agents.

      The Paying Agent shall initially be the Property Trustee. The Paying Agent
shall make Distributions to Holders from the Payment Account and shall report
the amounts of such Distributions to the Property Trustee and the Administrative
Trustees. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from
the Payment Account solely for the purpose of making the Distributions referred
to above. The Administrative Trustees may revoke such power and remove the
Paying Agent in their sole discretion. Any Person acting as Paying Agent shall
be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon thirty (30) days' written notice to
the Administrative Trustees and the Property Trustee. If the Property Trustee
shall no longer be the Paying Agent or a successor Paying Agent shall resign or
its authority to act be revoked, the Administrative Trustees shall appoint a
successor (which shall be a bank or trust company) to act as Paying Agent. Such
successor Paying Agent appointed by the Administrative Trustees shall execute
and deliver to the Trustees an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent
shall agree with the Trustees that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent
will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Holders in trust for
the benefit of the Holders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to
such Holders. The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Property
Trustee and upon removal of a Paying Agent such Paying Agent shall also return
all funds in its possession to the Property Trustee. The provisions of Article
VIII shall apply to the Property Trustee also in its role as Paying Agent, for
so long as the Property Trustee shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent
applicable, to any other Paying Agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this
Trust Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the
context requires otherwise.

                                  ARTICLE IV.

                            DISTRIBUTIONS; REDEMPTION

      SECTION 4.1. Distributions.

      (a) The Trust Securities represent undivided beneficial interests in the
Trust Property, and Distributions (including any Additional Interest Amounts)
will be made on the Trust Securities at the rate and on the dates that payments
of interest (including any Additional Interest) are made on the Notes.
Accordingly:

            (i) Distributions on the Trust Securities shall be cumulative, and
      shall accumulate whether or not there are funds of the Trust legally
      available for the payment of Distributions. Distributions shall accumulate
      from September 26, 2005, and, except as provided in clause (ii) below,
      shall be payable quarterly in arrears on January 30, April 30, July 30 and
      October 30 of each year, commencing on October 30, 2005. If any date on
      which a Distribution is otherwise payable on the Trust Securities is not a
      Business Day, then the payment of such Distribution shall be made on the
      next succeeding Business Day (and no interest shall accrue in respect of
      the amounts whose payment is so delayed for the period from and after each
      such date until the next succeeding Business Day), except that, if such
      Business Day falls in the next succeeding

                                       16
<PAGE>
      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
      such date (each date on which Distributions are payable in accordance with
      this Section 4.1(a)(i), a "Distribution Date");

            (ii) Distributions shall accumulate in respect of the Trust
      Securities at a fixed rate equal to 8.19% per annum through the interest
      payment date on October 30, 2015 ("Fixed Rate Period") and thereafter at a
      variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 3.5% per annum of the Liquidation Amount
      of the Trust Securities, such rate being the rate of interest payable on
      the Notes. LIBOR shall be determined by the Calculation Agent in
      accordance with Schedule A. The amount of Distributions payable for any
      period shall be computed during the Fixed Rate Period on the basis of a
      360-day year of twelve 30-day months, and thereafter on the basis of a
      360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant
      interest period. The amount of Distributions payable for any period shall
      include any Additional Interest Amounts in respect of such period; and

            (iii) Distributions on the Trust Securities shall be made by the
      Paying Agent from the Payment Account and shall be payable on each
      Distribution Date only to the extent that the Trust has funds then on hand
      and legally available in the Payment Account for the payment of such
      Distributions.

      (b) Distributions on the Trust Securities with respect to a Distribution
Date shall be payable to the Holders thereof as they appear on the Securities
Register for the Trust Securities at the close of business on the relevant
record date, which shall be at the close of business on the fifteenth day
(whether or not a Business Day) preceding the relevant Distribution Date, except
that Distributions and any Additional Interest Amounts payable on the stated
maturity (or any date of principal repayment upon early maturity) of the
principal of a Trust Security or on a Redemption Date shall be paid to the
Person to whom principal is paid. Distributions payable on any Trust Securities
that are not punctually paid on any Distribution Date as a result of the
Depositor having failed to make an interest payment under the Notes will cease
to be payable to the Person in whose name such Trust Securities are registered
on the relevant record date, and such defaulted Distributions and any Additional
Interest Amounts will instead be payable to the Person in whose name such Trust
Securities are registered on the special record date, or other specified date
for determining Holders entitled to such defaulted Distribution and Additional
Interest Amount, established in the same manner, and on the same date, as such
is established with respect to the Notes under the Indenture.

      (c) As a condition to the payment of any principal of or interest on the
Trust Securities without the imposition of withholding tax, the Administrative
Trustees shall require the previous delivery of properly completed and signed
applicable U.S. federal income tax certifications (generally, an Internal
Revenue Service Form W-9 (or applicable successor form) in the case of a person
that is a "United States person" within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of
the Code or an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (or applicable successor form)
in the case of a person that is not a "United States person" within the meaning
of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) and any other certification acceptable to it
to enable the Property Trustee or any Paying Agent to determine in good faith
their respective duties and liabilities with respect to any taxes or

                                       17
<PAGE>
other charges that they may be required to pay, deduct or withhold in respect of
such Trust Securities.

      SECTION 4.2. Redemption.

      (a) On each Note Redemption Date and on the stated maturity (or any date
of principal repayment upon early maturity) of the Notes and on each other date
on (or in respect of) which any principal on the Notes is repaid, the Trust will
be required to redeem a Like Amount of Trust Securities at the Redemption Price.

      (b) Notice of redemption shall be given by the Property Trustee by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than thirty (30) nor more
than sixty (60) days prior to the Redemption Date to each Holder of Trust
Securities to be redeemed, at such Holder's address appearing in the Securities
Register. All notices of redemption shall state:

            (i) the Redemption Date;

            (ii) the Redemption Price or, if the Redemption Price cannot be
      calculated prior to the time the notice is required to be sent, the
      estimate of the Redemption Price provided pursuant to the Indenture, as
      calculated by the Depositor, together with a statement that it is an
      estimate and that the actual Redemption Price will be calculated by the
      Calculation Agent on the fifth Business Day prior to the Redemption Date
      (and if an estimate is provided, a further notice shall be sent of the
      actual Redemption Price on the date that such Redemption Price is
      calculated);

            (iii) if less than all the Outstanding Trust Securities are to be
      redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the
      respective amounts) and Liquidation Amounts of the particular Trust
      Securities to be redeemed;

            (iv) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become
      due and payable upon each such Trust Security, or portion thereof, to be
      redeemed and that Distributions thereon will cease to accumulate on such
      Trust Security or such portion, as the case may be, on and after said
      date, except as provided in Section 4.2(d);

            (v) the place or places where the Trust Securities are to be
      surrendered for the payment of the Redemption Price; and

            (vi) such other provisions as the Property Trustee deems relevant.

      (c) The Trust Securities (or portion thereof) redeemed on each Redemption
Date shall be redeemed at the Redemption Price with the proceeds from the
contemporaneous redemption or payment at maturity of Notes. Redemptions of the
Trust Securities (or portion thereof) shall be made and the Redemption Price
shall be payable on each Redemption Date only to the extent that the Trust has
funds then on hand and legally available in the Payment Account for the payment
of such Redemption Price. Under the Indenture, the Notes may be redeemed by the
Depositor on any Interest Payment Date, at the Depositor's option, on or after
October 30, 2010, in whole or in part, from time to time at the Optional Note
Redemption Price. The Notes may also be redeemed by the Depositor, at its option
pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, in whole

                                       18
<PAGE>
but not in part, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an
Investment Company Event or a Tax Event, at the Special Note Redemption Price.

      (d) If the Property Trustee gives a notice of redemption in respect of any
Preferred Securities, then by 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Redemption
Date, the Depositor shall deposit sufficient funds with the Property Trustee to
pay the Redemption Price. If such deposit has been made by such time, then by
12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Redemption Date, the Property Trustee
will, with respect to Book-Entry Preferred Securities, irrevocably deposit with
the Depositary for such Book-Entry Preferred Securities, to the extent available
therefor, funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give
such Depositary irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption
Price to the Holders of the Preferred Securities. With respect to Preferred
Securities that are not Book-Entry Preferred Securities, the Property Trustee
will irrevocably deposit with the Paying Agent, to the extent legally available
therefor, funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give
the Paying Agent irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption
Price to the Holders of the Preferred Securities upon surrender of their
Preferred Securities Certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Distributions
payable on or prior to the Redemption Date for any Trust Securities (or portion
thereof) called for redemption shall be payable to the Holders of such Trust
Securities as they appear on the Securities Register on the relevant record
dates for the related Distribution Dates. If notice of redemption shall have
been given and funds deposited as required, then upon the date of such deposit,
all rights of Holders holding Trust Securities (or portion thereof) so called
for redemption will cease, except the right of such Holders to receive the
Redemption Price and any Distribution payable in respect of the Trust Securities
on or prior to the Redemption Date, but without interest, and, in the case of a
partial redemption, the right of such Holders to receive a new Trust Security or
Securities of authorized denominations, in aggregate Liquidation Amount equal to
the unredeemed portion of such Trust Security or Securities, and such Trust
Securities (or portion thereof) called for redemption will cease to be
Outstanding. In the event that any date on which any Redemption Price is payable
is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price payable on such date
will be made on the next succeeding Business Day (and no interest shall accrue
in respect of the amounts whose payment is so delayed for the period from and
after each such date until the next succeeding Business Day), except that, if
such Business Day falls 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 such date. In the event that payment of the
Redemption Price in respect of any Trust Securities (or portion thereof) called
for redemption is improperly withheld or refused and not paid either by the
Trust, Distributions on such Trust Securities (or portion thereof) will continue
to accumulate, as set forth in Section 4.1, from the Redemption Date originally
established by the Trust for such Trust Securities (or portion thereof) to the
date such Redemption Price is actually paid, in which case the actual payment
date will be the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the
Redemption Price.

      (e) Subject to Section 4.3(a), if less than all the Outstanding Trust
Securities are to be redeemed on a Redemption Date, then the aggregate
Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities to be redeemed shall be allocated pro
rata to the Common Securities and the Preferred Securities based upon the
relative aggregate Liquidation Amounts of the Common Securities and the
Preferred Securities. Upon such a partial redemption, the Preferred Securities
to be redeemed from each Holder of Preferred Securities shall be selected on a
pro rata basis based upon the

                                       19
<PAGE>
respective Liquidation Amounts of the Preferred Securities then held by each
Holder of the Preferred Securities not more than sixty (60) days prior to the
Redemption Date by the Property Trustee from the Outstanding Preferred
Securities not previously called for redemption; provided, that with respect to
Holders that would be required to hold less than one hundred (100) but more than
zero (0) Trust Securities as a result of such redemption, the Trust shall redeem
Trust Securities of each such Holder so that after such redemption such Holder
shall hold either one hundred (100) Trust Securities or such Holder no longer
holds any Trust Securities, and shall use such method (including, without
limitation, by lot) as the Trust shall deem fair and appropriate; and provided,
further, that so long as the Preferred Securities are Book-Entry Preferred
Securities, such selection shall be made in accordance with the Applicable
Depositary Procedures for the Preferred Securities by such Depositary. The
Property Trustee shall promptly notify the Securities Registrar in writing of
the Preferred Securities (or portion thereof) selected for redemption and, in
the case of any Preferred Securities selected for partial redemption, the
Liquidation Amount thereof to be redeemed. For all purposes of this Trust
Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the
redemption of Preferred Securities shall relate, in the case of any Preferred
Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the
aggregate Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities that has been or is to be
redeemed.

      (f) The Trust in issuing the Trust Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers (if
then generally in use), and, if so, the Property Trustee shall indicate the
"CUSIP" numbers of the Trust Securities in notices of redemption and related
materials as a convenience to Holders; provided, that any such notice may state
that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as
printed on the Trust Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption and
related materials.

      SECTION 4.3. Subordination of Common Securities.

      (a) Payment of Distributions (including any Additional Interest Amounts)
on, the Redemption Price of and the Liquidation Distribution in respect of, the
Trust Securities, as applicable, shall be made, pro rata among the Common
Securities and the Preferred Securities based on the Liquidation Amount of the
respective Trust Securities; provided, that if on any Distribution Date,
Redemption Date or Liquidation Date an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, no payment of any Distribution (including any Additional Interest
Amounts) on, Redemption Price of or Liquidation Distribution in respect of, any
Common Security, and no other payment on account of the redemption, liquidation
or other acquisition of Common Securities, shall be made unless payment in full
in cash of all accumulated and unpaid Distributions (including any Additional
Interest Amounts) on all Outstanding Preferred Securities for all Distribution
periods terminating on or prior thereto, or in the case of payment of the
Redemption Price the full amount of such Redemption Price on all Outstanding
Preferred Securities then called for redemption, or in the case of payment of
the Liquidation Distribution the full amount of such Liquidation Distribution on
all Outstanding Preferred Securities, shall have been made or provided for, and
all funds immediately and legally available to the Property Trustee shall first
be applied to the payment in full in cash of all Distributions (including any
Additional Interest Amounts) on, or the Redemption Price of or the Liquidation
Distribution in respect of, the Preferred Securities then due and payable.

                                       20
<PAGE>
      (b) In the case of the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Holders of
the Common Securities shall have no right to act with respect to any such Event
of Default under this Trust Agreement until all such Events of Default with
respect to the Preferred Securities have been cured, waived or otherwise
eliminated. Until all such Events of Default under this Trust Agreement with
respect to the Preferred Securities have been so cured, waived or otherwise
eliminated, the Property Trustee shall act solely on behalf of the Holders of
the Preferred Securities and not on behalf of the Holders of the Common
Securities, and only the Holders of all the Preferred Securities will have the
right to direct the Property Trustee to act on their behalf.

      SECTION 4.4. Payment Procedures.

      Payments of Distributions (including any Additional Interest Amounts), the
Redemption Price, Liquidation Amount or any other amounts in respect of the
Preferred Securities shall be made by wire transfer at such place and to such
account at a banking institution in the United States as may be designated in
writing at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date for payment by the
Person entitled thereto unless proper written transfer instructions have not
been received by the relevant record date, in which case such payments shall be
made by check mailed to the address of such Person as such address shall appear
in the Securities Register. If any Preferred Securities are held by a
Depositary, such Distributions thereon shall be made to the Depositary in
immediately and legally available funds. Payments in respect of the Common
Securities shall be made in such manner as shall be mutually agreed between the
Property Trustee and the Holder of all the Common Securities.

      SECTION 4.5. Withholding Tax.

      (a) The Trust and the Administrative Trustees shall comply with all
withholding and backup withholding tax requirements under United States federal,
state and local law. The Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust shall
request, and the Holders shall provide to the Trust, such forms or certificates
as are necessary to establish an exemption from withholding and backup
withholding tax with respect to each Holder and any representations and forms as
shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Trustees on behalf of the
Trust to assist it in determining the extent of, and in fulfilling, its
withholding and backup withholding tax obligations. The Administrative Trustees
shall file required forms with applicable jurisdictions and, unless an exemption
from withholding and backup withholding tax is properly established by a Holder,
shall remit amounts withheld with respect to the Holder to applicable
jurisdictions. To the extent that the Trust is required to withhold and pay over
any amounts to any jurisdiction with respect to Distributions or allocations to
any Holder, the amount withheld shall be deemed to be a Distribution in the
amount of the withholding to the Holder. In the event of any claimed
overwithholding, Holders shall be limited to an action against the applicable
jurisdiction. If the amount required to be withheld was not withheld from actual
Distributions made, the Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust may
reduce subsequent Distributions by the amount of such required withholding.

      SECTION 4.6. Tax Returns and Other Reports.

      The Administrative Trustees shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) at the
principal office of the Trust in the United States, as defined for purposes of

state and local tax and information returns and reports required to be filed by
or in respect of the Trust. The Administrative Trustees shall prepare at the
principal office of the Trust in the United States, as defined for purposes of
Treasury regulations section 301.7701-7, and furnish (or cause to be prepared
and furnished), by January 31 in each taxable year of the Trust to each Holder
all Internal Revenue Service forms and returns required to be provided by the
Trust. The Administrative Trustees shall provide the Depositor, Cohen Bros. &
Company and the Property Trustee with a copy of all such returns and reports
promptly after such filing or furnishing.

      SECTION 4.7. Payment of Taxes, Duties, Etc. of the Trust.

      Upon receipt under the Notes of Additional Tax Sums and upon the written
direction of the Administrative Trustees, the Property Trustee shall promptly
pay, solely out of monies on deposit pursuant to this Trust Agreement, any
Additional Taxes imposed on the Trust by the United States or any other taxing
authority.

      SECTION 4.8. Payments under Indenture or Pursuant to Direct Actions.

      Any amount payable hereunder to any Holder of Preferred Securities shall
be reduced by the amount of any corresponding payment such Holder (or any Owner
with respect thereto) has directly received pursuant to Section 5.8 of the
Indenture or Section 6.10(b) of this Trust Agreement.

      SECTION 4.9. Exchanges.

      (a) If at any time the Depositor or any of its Affiliates (in either case,
a "Depositor Affiliate") is the Owner or Holder of any Preferred Securities,
such Depositor Affiliate shall have the right to deliver to the Property Trustee
all or such portion of its Preferred Securities as it elects and, subject to
compliance with Sections 2.2 and 3.5 of the Indenture, receive, in exchange
therefor, a Like Amount of Notes. Such election shall be exercisable effective
on any Distribution Date by such Depositor Affiliate delivering to the Property
Trustee (i) at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Distribution Date on
which such exchange is to occur, the registration instructions and the
documentation, if any, required pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 3.5 of the
Indenture to enable the Indenture Trustee to issue the requested Like Amount of
Notes, (ii) a written notice of such election specifying the Liquidation Amount
of Preferred Securities with respect to which such election is being made and
the Distribution Date on which such exchange shall occur, which Distribution
Date shall be not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date of receipt by
the Property Trustee of such election notice and (iii) shall be conditioned upon
such Depositor Affiliate having delivered or caused to be delivered to the
Property Trustee or its designee the Preferred Securities that are the subject
of such election by 10:00 A.M. New York time, on the Distribution Date on which
such exchange is to occur. After the exchange, such Preferred Securities will be
canceled and will no longer be deemed to be Outstanding and all rights of the
Depositor Affiliate with respect to such Preferred Securities will cease.

      (b) In the case of an exchange described in Section 4.9(a), the Property
Trustee on behalf of the Trust will, on the date of such exchange, exchange
Notes having a principal amount equal to a proportional amount of the aggregate
Liquidation Amount of the Outstanding

                                       22
<PAGE>
Common Securities, based on the ratio of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the
Preferred Securities exchanged pursuant to Section 4.9(a) divided by the
aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities Outstanding immediately
prior to such exchange, for such proportional amount of Common Securities held
by the Depositor (which contemporaneously shall be canceled and no longer be
deemed to be Outstanding); provided, that the Depositor delivers or causes to be
delivered to the Property Trustee or its designee the required amount of Common
Securities to be exchanged by 10:00 A.M. New York time, on the Distribution Date
on which such exchange is to occur.

      SECTION 4.10. Calculation Agent.

      (a) The Calculation Agent may be removed by the Administrative Trustees at
any time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Property Trustee shall initially,
and, subject to the immediately following sentence, for so long as it holds any
of the Notes, be the Calculation Agent for purposes of determining LIBOR for
each Distribution Date. If the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act
as such or is removed by the Administrative Trustees, the Administrative
Trustees will promptly appoint as a replacement Calculation Agent the London
office of a leading bank which is engaged in transactions in three-month
Eurodollar deposits in the international Eurodollar market and which does not
control or is not controlled by or under common control with the Administrative
Trustee or its Affiliates. The Calculation Agent may not resign its duties
without a successor having been duly appointed.

      (b) The Calculation Agent shall be required to agree that, as soon as
possible after 11:00 a.m. (London time) on each LIBOR Determination Date, but in
no event later than 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the Business Day immediately
following each LIBOR Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will calculate
the interest rate (rounded to the nearest cent, with half a cent being rounded
upwards) for the related Distribution Date, and will communicate such rate and
amount to the Depositor, the Administrative Trustees, the Note Trustee, each
Paying Agent and the Depositary. The Calculation Agent will also specify to the
Administrative Trustee the quotations upon which the foregoing rates and amounts
are based and, in any event, the Calculation Agent shall notify the
Administrative Trustees before 5:00 p.m. (London time) on each LIBOR
Determination Date that either: (i) it has determined or is in the process of
determining the foregoing rates and amounts or (ii) it has not determined and is
not in the process of determining the foregoing rates and amounts, together with
its reasons therefor. The Calculation Agent's determination of the foregoing
rates and amounts for any Distribution Date will (in the absence of manifest
error) be final and binding upon all parties. For the sole purpose of
calculating the interest rate for the Trust Securities, "Business Day" shall be
defined as any day on which dealings in deposits in Dollars are transacted in
the London interbank market.

      SECTION 4.11. Certain Accounting Matters.

      (a) At all times during the existence of the Trust, the Administrative
Trustees shall keep, or cause to be kept at the principal office of the Trust in
the United States, as defined for purposes of Treasury Regulations section
301.7701-7, full books of account, records and supporting documents, which shall
reflect in reasonable detail each transaction of the Trust. The books of account
shall be maintained on the accrual method of accounting, in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied.

                                       23
<PAGE>
      (b) The Administrative Trustees shall either (i) if the Depositor is then
subject to such reporting requirements, cause each Form 10-K and Form 10-Q
prepared by the Depositor and filed with the Commission in accordance with the
Exchange Act to be delivered to each Holder, with a copy to the Property
Trustee, within thirty (30) days after the filing thereof or (ii) cause to be
prepared at the principal office of the Trust in the United States, as defined
for purposes of Treasury Regulations section 301.7701-7, and delivered to each
of the Holders, with a copy to the Property Trustee, within ninety (90) days
after the end of each Fiscal Year, annual financial statements of the Trust,
including a balance sheet of the Trust as of the end of such Fiscal Year, and
the related statements of income or loss.

      (c) If the Depositor intends to file its annual and quarterly information
with the Commission in electronic form pursuant to Regulation S-T of the
Commission using the Commission's Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and
Retrieval ("EDGAR") system, the Administrative Trustees shall notify the
Property Trustee in the manner prescribed herein of each such annual and
quarterly filing. The Property Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to
access the EDGAR system for purposes of retrieving the financial information so
filed. Compliance with the foregoing shall constitute delivery by the
Administrative Trustees of its financial statements to the Property Trustee in
compliance with the provisions of Section 314(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, if
applicable. The Property Trustee shall have no duty to search for or obtain any
electronic or other filings that the Depositor makes with the Commission,
regardless of whether such filings are periodic, supplemental or otherwise.
Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Property Trustee pursuant
to this Section 4.11(c) shall be solely for purposes of compliance with this
Section 4.11 and, if applicable, with Section 314(a) of the Trust Indenture Act.
The Property Trustee's receipt of such reports, information and documents shall
not constitute notice to it of the content thereof or any matter determinable
from the content thereof, including the Depositor's compliance with any of its
covenants hereunder, as to which the Property Trustee is entitled to rely upon
Officers' Certificates.

      (d) The Trust shall maintain one or more bank accounts in the United
States, as defined for purposes of Treasury Regulations section 301.7701-7, in
the name and for the sole benefit of the Trust; provided, however, that all
payments of funds in respect of the Notes held by the Property Trustee shall be
made directly to the Payment Account and no other funds of the Trust shall be
deposited in the Payment Account. The sole signatories for such accounts
(including the Payment Account) shall be designated by the Property Trustee.

                                   ARTICLE V.

                                   SECURITIES

      SECTION 5.1. Initial Ownership.

      Upon the creation of the Trust and the contribution by the Depositor
referred to in Section 2.3 and until the issuance of the Trust Securities, and
at any time during which no Trust Securities are Outstanding, the Depositor
shall be the sole beneficial owner of the Trust.

                                       24
<PAGE>
      SECTION 5.2. Authorized Trust Securities.

      The Trust shall be authorized to issue one series of Preferred Securities
having an aggregate Liquidation Amount of $35,000,000 and one series of Common
Securities having an aggregate Liquidation Amount of $1,083,000.

      SECTION 5.3. Issuance of the Common Securities; Subscription and Purchase
of Notes.

      On the Closing Date, an Administrative Trustee, on behalf of the Trust,
shall execute and deliver to the Depositor Common Securities Certificates,
registered in the name of the Depositor, evidencing an aggregate of 1,083 Common
Securities having an aggregate Liquidation Amount of One Million Eighty Three
Thousand Dollars ($1,083,000), against receipt by the Trust of the aggregate
purchase price of such Common Securities of One Million Eighty Three Thousand
Dollars ($1,083,000). Contemporaneously therewith and with the sale by the Trust
to the Holders of an aggregate of 35,000 Preferred Securities having an
aggregate Liquidation Amount of Thirty Five Million Dollars ($35,000,000) an
Administrative Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall purchase from the
Depositor Notes, to be registered in the name of the Property Trustee on behalf
of the Trust and having an aggregate principal amount equal to Thirty Six
Million Eighty Three Thousand Dollars ($36,083,000), and, in satisfaction of the
purchase price for such Notes, the Property Trustee, on behalf of the Trust,
shall deliver to the Depositor the sum of Thirty Six Million Eighty Three
Thousand Dollars ($36,083,000) (being the aggregate amount paid by the Holders
for the Preferred Securities, and the amount paid by the Depositor for the
Common Securities).

      SECTION 5.4. The Securities Certificates.

      (a) The Preferred Securities Certificates shall be issued in minimum
denominations of $100,000 Liquidation Amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in
excess thereof, and the Common Securities Certificates shall be issued in
minimum denominations of $10,000 Liquidation Amount and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof. The Securities Certificates shall be executed on
behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of at least one
Administrative Trustee. Securities Certificates bearing the signatures of
individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed,
authorized to sign such Securities Certificates on behalf of the Trust shall be
validly issued and entitled to the benefits of this Trust Agreement,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so
authorized prior to the delivery of such Securities Certificates or did not have
such authority at the date of delivery of such Securities Certificates.

      (b) On the Closing Date, upon the written order of an authorized officer
of the Depositor, the Administrative Trustees shall cause Securities
Certificates to be executed on behalf of the Trust and delivered, without
further corporate action by the Depositor, in authorized denominations.

      (c) The Preferred Securities issued to QIBs/QPs may be, except as provided
in Section 5.6, Book-Entry Preferred Securities issued in the form of one or
more Global Preferred Securities registered in the name of the Depositary, or
its nominee and deposited with the

                                       25
<PAGE>
Depositary or a custodian for the Depositary for credit by the Depositary to the
respective accounts of the Depositary Participants thereof (or such other
accounts as they may direct). The Preferred Securities issued to a Person other
than a QIB/QP shall be issued in the form of Definitive Preferred Securities
Certificates.

      (d) A Preferred Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the
manual signature of an authorized signatory of the Property Trustee. Such
signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Preferred Security has been
authenticated under this Trust Agreement. Upon written order of the Trust signed
by one Administrative Trustee, the Property Trustee shall authenticate the
Preferred Securities for original issue. The Property Trustee may appoint an
authenticating agent that is a U.S. Person acceptable to the Trust to
authenticate the Preferred Securities. A Common Security need not be so
authenticated and shall be valid upon execution by one or more Administrative
Trustees. The form of this certificate of authentication can be found in Section
5.13.

      SECTION 5.5. Rights of Holders.

      The Trust Securities shall have no preemptive or similar rights and when
issued and delivered to Holders against payment of the purchase price therefor
will be fully paid and non-assessable by the Trust. Except as provided in
Section 5.11(b), the Holders of the Trust Securities, in their capacities as
such, shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to
stockholders of private corporations for profit organized under the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

      SECTION 5.6. Book-Entry Preferred Securities.

      (a) A Global Preferred Security may be exchanged, in whole or in part, for
Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates registered in the names of the
Owners only if such exchange complies with Section 5.7 and (i) the Depositary
advises the Administrative Trustees and the Property Trustee in writing that the
Depositary is no longer willing or able properly to discharge its
responsibilities with respect to the Global Preferred Security, and no qualified
successor is appointed by the Administrative Trustees within ninety (90) days of
receipt of such notice, (ii) the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency
registered under the Exchange Act and the Administrative Trustees fail to
appoint a qualified successor within ninety (90) days of obtaining knowledge of
such event, (iii) the Administrative Trustees at their option advise the
Property Trustee in writing that the Trust elects to terminate the book-entry
system through the Depositary or (iv) a Note Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing. Upon the occurrence of any event specified in clause (i), (ii),
(iii) or (iv) above, the Administrative Trustees shall notify the Depositary and
instruct the Depositary to notify all Owners of Book-Entry Preferred Securities,
the Delaware Trustee and the Property Trustee of the occurrence of such event
and of the availability of the Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates to
Owners of the Preferred Securities requesting the same. Upon the issuance of
Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates, the Trustees shall recognize the
Holders of the Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates as Holders.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Owner of a beneficial interest in a Global
Preferred Security wishes at any time to transfer an interest in such Global
Preferred Security to a Person other than a QIB/QP, such transfer shall be
effected, subject to the Applicable Depositary Procedures, in accordance with
the provisions of this Section 5.6 and Section 5.7, and

                                       26
<PAGE>
the transferee shall receive a Definitive Preferred Securities Certificate in
connection with such transfer. A holder of a Definitive Preferred Securities
Certificate that is a QIB/QP may, upon request and in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 5.6 and Section 5.7, exchange such Definitive
Preferred Securities Certificate for a beneficial interest in a Global Preferred
Security.

      (b) If any Global Preferred Security is to be exchanged for Definitive
Preferred Securities Certificates or canceled in part, or if any Definitive
Preferred Securities Certificate is to be exchanged in whole or in part for any
Global Preferred Security, then either (i) such Global Preferred Security shall
be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article V or
(ii) the aggregate Liquidation Amount represented by such Global Preferred
Security shall be reduced, subject to Section 5.4, or increased by an amount
equal to the Liquidation Amount represented by that portion of the Global
Preferred Security to be so exchanged or canceled, or equal to the Liquidation
Amount represented by such Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates to be so
exchanged for any Global Preferred Security, as the case may be, by means of an
appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Securities Registrar,
whereupon the Property Trustee, in accordance with the Applicable Depositary
Procedures, shall instruct the Depositary or its authorized representative to
make a corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon any such surrender to the
Administrative Trustees or the Securities Registrar of any Global Preferred
Security or Securities by the Depositary, accompanied by registration
instructions, the Administrative Trustees, or any one of them, shall execute the
Definitive Preferred Securities Certificates in accordance with the instructions
of the Depositary. None of the Securities Registrar or the Trustees shall be
liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely
on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, such instructions.

      (c) Every Definitive Preferred Securities Certificate executed and
delivered upon registration or transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a
Global Preferred Security or any portion thereof shall be executed and delivered
in the form of, and shall be, a Global Preferred Security, unless such
Definitive Preferred Securities Certificate is registered in the name of a
Person other than the Depositary for such Global Preferred Security or a nominee
thereof.

      (d) The Depositary or its nominee, as registered owner of a Global
Preferred Security, shall be the Holder of such Global Preferred Security for
all purposes under this Trust Agreement and the Global Preferred Security, and
Owners with respect to a Global Preferred Security shall hold such interests
pursuant to the Applicable Depositary Procedures. The Securities Registrar and
the Trustees shall be entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes of
this Trust Agreement relating to the Global Preferred Securities (including the
payment of the Liquidation Amount of and Distributions on the Book-Entry
Preferred Securities represented thereby and the giving of instructions or
directions by Owners of Book-Entry Preferred Securities represented thereby and
the giving of notices) as the sole Holder of the Book-Entry Preferred Securities
represented thereby and shall have no obligations to the Owners thereof. None of
the Trustees nor the Securities Registrar shall have any liability in respect of
any transfers effected by the Depositary.

      (e) The rights of the Owners of the Book-Entry Preferred Securities shall
be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to those
established by law, the Applicable Depositary Procedures and agreements between
such Owners and the Depositary and/or the Depositary Participants; provided,
that solely for the purpose of determining whether

                                       27
<PAGE>
the Holders of the requisite amount of Preferred Securities have voted on any
matter provided for in this Trust Agreement, to the extent that Preferred
Securities are represented by a Global Preferred Security, the Trustees may
conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, any written
instrument (including a proxy) delivered to the Property Trustee by the
Depositary setting forth the Owners' votes or assigning the right to vote on any
matter to any other Persons either in whole or in part. To the extent that
Preferred Securities are represented by a Global Preferred Security, the initial
Depositary will make book-entry transfers among the Depositary Participants and
receive and transmit payments on the Preferred Securities that are represented
by a Global Preferred Security to such Depositary Participants, and none of the
Depositor or the Trustees shall have any responsibility or obligation with
respect thereto.

      (f) To the extent that a notice or other communication to the Holders is
required under this Trust Agreement, for so long as Preferred Securities are
represented by a Global Preferred Security, the Trustees shall give all such
notices and communications to the Depositary, and shall have no obligations to
the Owners.

      SECTION 5.7. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Preferred Securities
Certificates.

      (a) The Property Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept, at the Corporate
Trust Office, a register or registers (the "Securities Register") in which the
registrar and transfer agent with respect to the Trust Securities (the
"Securities Registrar"), subject to such reasonable regulations as it may
prescribe, shall provide for the registration of Preferred Securities
Certificates and Common Securities Certificates and registration of transfers
and exchanges of Preferred Securities Certificates as herein provided. The
Person acting as the Property Trustee shall at all times also be the Securities
Registrar. The provisions of Article VIII shall apply to the Property Trustee in
its role as Securities Registrar.

      (b) Subject to Section 5.7(d), upon surrender for registration of transfer
of any Preferred Securities Certificate at the office or agency maintained
pursuant to Section 5.7(f), the Administrative Trustees or any one of them shall
execute by manual or facsimile signature and deliver to the Property Trustee,
and the Property Trustee upon written order of the Trust signed by one
Administrative Trustee, shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Preferred Securities
Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate Liquidation Amount
as may be required by this Trust Agreement dated the date of execution by such
Administrative Trustee or Trustees. At the option of a Holder, Preferred
Securities Certificates may be exchanged for other Preferred Securities
Certificates in authorized denominations and of a like aggregate Liquidation
Amount upon surrender of the Preferred Securities Certificate to be exchanged at
the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 5.7(f). Whenever any
Preferred Securities Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the
Administrative Trustees or any one of them shall execute by manual or facsimile
signature and deliver to the Property Trustee, and the Property Trustee upon
written order of the Trust signed by one Administrative Trustee, shall
authenticate and deliver, the Preferred Securities Certificates that the Holder
making the exchange is entitled to receive.

      (c) The Securities Registrar shall not be required, (i) to issue, register
the transfer of or exchange any Preferred Security during a period beginning at
the opening of business fifteen

                                       28
<PAGE>
(15) days before the day of selection for redemption of such Preferred
Securities pursuant to Article IV and ending at the close of business on the day
of mailing of the notice of redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or
exchange any Preferred Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part,
except, in the case of any such Preferred Security to be redeemed in part, any
portion thereof not to be redeemed.

      (d) Every Preferred Securities Certificate presented or surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied
by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Securities
Registrar duly executed by the Holder or such Holder's attorney duly authorized
in writing and accompanied by a certificate of the transferor substantially in
the form set forth as Exhibit E hereto.

      (e) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Preferred Securities Certificates, but the Property Trustee on
behalf of the Trust may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or
exchange of Preferred Securities Certificates.

      (f) The Administrative Trustees shall designate an office or offices or
agency or agencies where Preferred Securities Certificates may be surrendered
for registration of transfer or exchange and initially designate the Corporate
Trust Office as its office and agency for such purposes. The Administrative
Trustees shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor, the Property Trustee
and to the Holders of any change in the location of any such office or agency.

      (g) The Preferred Securities may only be transferred to a "Qualified
Purchaser" as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment Company
Act. Neither the Property Trustee nor the Securities Registrar shall be
responsible for ascertaining whether any transfer hereunder complies with the
registration provisions of or any exemptions from the Securities Act, applicable
state securities laws or the applicable laws of any other jurisdiction, ERISA,
the Code or the Investment Company Act; provided, that if a certificate is
specifically required by the express terms of this Section 5.7 to be delivered
to the Property Trustee or the Securities Registrar, such party shall be under a
duty to receive and examine the same to determine in good faith whether or not
the certificate substantially conforms on its face to the requirements of this
Trust Agreement and shall promptly notify the party delivering the same if such
certificate does not comply with such terms.

      SECTION 5.8. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Securities Certificates.

      (a) If any mutilated Securities Certificate shall be surrendered to the
Securities Registrar together with such security or indemnity as may be required
by the Securities Registrar to save each of the Trustees harmless, the
Administrative Trustees, or any one of them, on behalf of the Trust, shall
execute and make available for delivery in exchange therefor a new Securities
Certificate of like class, tenor and denomination.

      (b) If the Securities Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction
of the destruction, loss or theft of any Securities Certificate and there shall
be delivered to the Securities Registrar such security or indemnity as may be
required by it to save each of the Trustees harmless, then in the absence of
notice that such Securities Certificate shall have been

                                       29
<PAGE>
acquired by a protected purchaser, the Administrative Trustees, or any one of
them, on behalf of the Trust, shall execute and make available for delivery,
and, with respect to Preferred Securities, the Property Trustee shall upon
written order of the Trust signed by one Administrative Trustee, authenticate,
in exchange for or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Securities
Certificate, a new Securities Certificate of like class, tenor and denomination.

      (c) In connection with the issuance of any new Securities Certificate
under this Section 5.8, the Administrative Trustees or the Securities Registrar
may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.

      (d) Any duplicate Securities Certificate issued pursuant to this Section
5.8 shall constitute conclusive evidence of an undivided beneficial interest in
the assets of the Trust corresponding to that evidenced by the mutilated, lost,
stolen or destroyed Securities Certificate, as if originally issued, whether or
not the lost, stolen or destroyed Securities Certificate shall be found at any
time.

      (e) If any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities
Certificate has become or is about to become due and payable, the Depositor in
its discretion may provide the Property Trustee with the funds to pay such Trust
Security and upon receipt of such funds, the Property Trustee shall pay such
Trust Security instead of issuing a new Securities Certificate.

      (f) The provisions of this Section 5.8 are exclusive and shall preclude
(to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the
replacement of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities Certificates.

      SECTION 5.9. Persons Deemed Holders.

      The Trustees and the Securities Registrar shall each treat the Person in
whose name any Securities Certificate shall be registered in the Securities
Register as the owner of such Securities Certificate for the purpose of
receiving Distributions and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the
Trustees and the Securities Registrar shall be bound by any notice to the
contrary.

      SECTION 5.10. Cancellation.

      All Preferred Securities Certificates surrendered for registration of
transfer or exchange or for payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other
than the Property Trustee, be delivered to the Property Trustee, and any such
Preferred Securities Certificates and Preferred Securities Certificates
surrendered directly to the Property Trustee for any such purpose shall be
promptly canceled by it. The Administrative Trustees may at any time deliver to
the Property Trustee for cancellation any Preferred Securities Certificates
previously delivered hereunder that the Administrative Trustees may have
acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Preferred Securities Certificates so
delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Property Trustee. No Preferred
Securities Certificates shall be executed and delivered in lieu of or in
exchange for any Preferred Securities Certificates canceled as provided in this
Section 5.10, except as expressly permitted by this Trust Agreement. All
canceled Preferred Securities Certificates shall be retained by the Property
Trustee in accordance with its customary practices.

<PAGE>
      SECTION 5.11. Ownership of Common Securities by Depositor.

      (a) On the Closing Date, the Depositor shall acquire, and thereafter shall
retain, beneficial and record ownership of the Common Securities. Neither the
Depositor nor any successor Holder of the Common Securities may transfer less
than all the Common Securities, and the Depositor or any such successor Holder
may transfer the Common Securities only (i) in connection with a consolidation
or merger of the Depositor into another Person, or any conveyance, transfer or
lease by the Depositor of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety
to any Person (in which event such Common Securities will be transferred to such
surviving entity, transferee or lessee, as the case may be), pursuant to Section
8.1 of the Indenture or (ii) to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor,
in each such case in compliance with applicable law (including the Securities
Act, and applicable state securities and blue sky laws). To the fullest extent
permitted by law, any attempted transfer of the Common Securities other than as
set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall be void. The
Administrative Trustees shall cause each Common Securities Certificate issued to
the Depositor to contain a legend stating substantially "THIS CERTIFICATE IS NOT
TRANSFERABLE EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW AND SECTION 5.11 OF THE
TRUST AGREEMENT."

      (b) Any Holder of the Common Securities shall be liable for the debts and
obligations of the Trust in the manner and to the extent set forth with respect
to the Depositor and agrees that it shall be subject to all liabilities to which
the Depositor may be subject and, prior to becoming such a Holder, shall deliver
to the Administrative Trustees an instrument of assumption satisfactory to such
Trustees.

      SECTION 5.12. Restricted Legends.

      PREFERRED SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, RESOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY
      (I) TO THE TRUST, OR (II) TO A PERSON WHOM THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES

      (b) The above legend shall not be removed from any of the Preferred
Securities Certificates unless there is delivered to the Property Trustee and
the Depositor satisfactory evidence, which may include an opinion of counsel, as
may be reasonably required to ensure that any future transfers thereof may be
made without restriction under the provisions of the Securities Act and other
applicable law. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, one or more of the
Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust shall execute and deliver to the
Property Trustee, and the Property Trustee shall deliver, at the written
direction of the Administrative Trustees and the Depositor, Preferred Securities
Certificates that do not bear the legend.

      SECTION 5.13. Form of Certificate of Authentication.

            The Property Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be in

                                   ARTICLE VI.

                        MEETINGS; VOTING; ACTS OF HOLDERS

      SECTION 6.1. Notice of Meetings.

      Notice of all meetings of the Holders of the Preferred Securities, stating
the time, place and purpose of the meeting, shall be given by the Administrative
Trustees pursuant to Section 10.8 to each Holder of Preferred Securities, at
such Holder's registered address, at least fifteen (15) days and not more than
ninety (90) days before the meeting. At any such meeting, any business properly
before the meeting may be so considered whether or not stated in the notice of
the meeting. Any adjourned meeting may be held as adjourned without further
notice.

      SECTION 6.2. Meetings of Holders of the Preferred Securities.

      (a) No annual meeting of Holders is required to be held. The
Administrative Trustees, however, shall call a meeting of the Holders of the
Preferred Securities to vote on any matter upon the written request of the
Holders of at least twenty five percent (25%) in aggregate Liquidation Amount of
the Outstanding Preferred Securities and the Administrative Trustees or the
Property Trustee may, at any time in their discretion, call a meeting of the
Holders of the Preferred Securities to vote on any matters as to which such
Holders are entitled to vote.

      (b) The Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the
Preferred Securities, present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum
at any meeting of the Holders of the Preferred Securities.

      (c) If a quorum is present at a meeting, an affirmative vote by the
Holders present, in person or by proxy, holding Preferred Securities
representing at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities held by the Holders present, either in person or by proxy, at such
meeting shall constitute the action of the Holders of the Preferred Securities,
unless this Trust Agreement requires a lesser or greater number of affirmative
votes.

      SECTION 6.3. Voting Rights.

      Holders shall be entitled to one vote for each $10,000 of Liquidation
Amount represented by their Outstanding Trust Securities in respect of any
matter as to which such Holders are entitled to vote.

      SECTION 6.4. Proxies, Etc.

      At any meeting of Holders, any Holder entitled to vote thereat may vote by
proxy, provided, that no proxy shall be voted at any meeting unless it shall
have been placed on file with the Administrative Trustees, or with such other
officer or agent of the Trust as the Administrative Trustees may direct, for
verification prior to the time at which such vote shall be taken. Pursuant to a
resolution of the Property Trustee, proxies may be solicited in the name of the
Property Trustee or one or more officers of the Property Trustee. Only Holders
of record shall be entitled to vote. When Trust Securities are held jointly by
several Persons, any one of them may vote at any meeting in person or by proxy
in respect of such Trust Securities, but if

                                       34
<PAGE>
more than one of them shall be present at such meeting in person or by proxy,
and such joint owners or their proxies so present disagree as to any vote to be
cast, such vote shall not be received in respect of such Trust Securities. A
proxy purporting to be executed by or on behalf of a Holder shall be deemed
valid unless challenged at or prior to its exercise, and the burden of proving
invalidity shall rest on the challenger. No proxy shall be valid more than three
years after its date of execution.

      SECTION 6.5. Holder Action by Written Consent.

      Any action that may be taken by Holders at a meeting may be taken without
a meeting and without prior notice if Holders holding at least a Majority in
Liquidation Amount of all Preferred Securities entitled to vote in respect of
such action (or such lesser or greater proportion thereof as shall be required
by any other provision of this Trust Agreement) shall consent to the action in
writing; provided, that notice of such action is promptly provided to the
Holders of Preferred Securities that did not consent to such action. Any action
that may be taken by the Holders of all the Common Securities may be taken
without a meeting and without prior notice if such Holders shall consent to the
action in writing.

      SECTION 6.6. Record Date for Voting and Other Purposes.

      Except as provided in Section 6.10(a), for the purposes of determining the
Holders who are entitled to notice of and to vote at any meeting or to act by
written consent, or to participate in any distribution on the Trust Securities
in respect of which a record date is not otherwise provided for in this Trust
Agreement, or for the purpose of any other action, the Administrative Trustees
may from time to time fix a date, not more than ninety (90) days prior to the
date of any meeting of Holders or the payment of a Distribution or other action,
as the case may be, as a record date for the determination of the identity of
the Holders of record for such purposes.

      SECTION 6.7. Acts of Holders.

      (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action provided or permitted by this Trust Agreement to be given, made
or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments
of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent
thereof duly appointed in writing; and, except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments
are delivered to an Administrative Trustee. Such instrument or instruments (and
the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred
to as the "Act" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of
execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall
be sufficient for any purpose of this Trust Agreement and conclusive in favor of
the Trustees, if made in the manner provided in this Section 6.7.

      (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such
execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by
law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing
such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such
execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than such signer's

                                       35
<PAGE>
individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute
sufficient proof of such signer's authority. The fact and date of the execution
of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the
same, may also be proved in any other manner that any Trustee receiving the same
deems sufficient.

      (c) The ownership of Trust Securities shall be proved by the Securities
Register.

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

      (e) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take
any action hereunder with regard to any particular Trust Security may do so with
regard to all or any part of the Liquidation Amount of such Trust Security or by
one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such
appointment with regard to all or any part of such Liquidation Amount.

      (f) If any dispute shall arise among the Holders or the Trustees with
respect to the authenticity, validity or binding nature of any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of such Holder or
Trustee under this Article VI, then the determination of such matter by the
Property Trustee shall be conclusive with respect to such matter.

      SECTION 6.8. Inspection of Records.

      Upon reasonable written notice to the Administrative Trustees and the
Property Trustee, the records of the Trust shall be open to inspection by any
Holder during normal business hours for any purpose reasonably related to such
Holder's interest as a Holder.

      SECTION 6.9. Limitations on Voting Rights.

      (a) Except as expressly provided in this Trust Agreement and in the
Indenture and as otherwise required by law, no Holder of Preferred Securities
shall have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the
administration, operation and management of the Trust or the obligations of the
parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms
of the Securities Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Holders
from time to time as partners or members of an association.

      (b) So long as any Notes are held by the Property Trustee on behalf of the
Trust, the Property Trustee shall not (i) direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Note Trustee, or
exercise any trust or power conferred on the Property Trustee with respect to
the Notes, (ii) waive any past default that may be waived under Section 5.13 of
the Indenture or waive compliance with any covenant or condition under Section
10.7 of the Indenture, (iii) exercise any right to rescind or annul a
declaration that the principal of all the Notes shall be due and payable or (iv)
consent to any amendment, modification or

                                       36
<PAGE>
termination of the Indenture or the Notes, where such consent shall be required,
without, in each case, obtaining the prior approval of the Holders of at least a
Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities; provided, that where
a consent under the Indenture would require the consent of each holder of Notes
(or each Holder of Preferred Securities) affected thereby, no such consent shall
be given by the Property Trustee without the prior written consent of each
Holder of Preferred Securities. The Property Trustee shall not revoke any action
previously authorized or approved by a vote of the Holders of the Preferred
Securities, except by a subsequent vote of the Holders of the Preferred
Securities. In addition to obtaining the foregoing approvals of the Holders of
the Preferred Securities, prior to taking any of the foregoing actions, the
Property Trustee shall, at the expense of the Depositor, obtain an Opinion of
Counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that such action shall not
cause the Trust to be taxable as a corporation or classified as other than a
grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes.

      (c) If any proposed amendment to the Trust Agreement provides for, or the
Trustees otherwise propose to effect, (i) any action that would adversely affect
in any material respect the powers, preferences or special rights of the
Preferred Securities, whether by way of amendment to the Trust Agreement or
otherwise or (ii) the dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, other
than pursuant to the terms of this Trust Agreement, then the Holders of
Outstanding Preferred Securities as a class will be entitled to vote on such
amendment or proposal and such amendment or proposal shall not be effective
except with the approval of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation
Amount of the Preferred Securities. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Trust Agreement, no amendment to this Trust Agreement may be made if, as a
result of such amendment, it would cause the Trust to be taxable as a
corporation or classified as other than a grantor trust for United States
federal income tax purposes.

      SECTION 6.10. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission of Annulment; Waivers
of Past Defaults.

      (a) For so long as any Preferred Securities remain Outstanding, if, upon a
Note Event of Default, the Note Trustee fails or the holders of not less than
twenty five percent (25%) in principal amount of the outstanding Notes fail to
declare the principal of all of the Notes to be immediately due and payable, the
Holders of at least twenty five percent (25%) in Liquidation Amount of the
Preferred Securities then Outstanding shall have the right to make such
declaration by a notice in writing to the Property Trustee, the Depositor and
the Note Trustee. At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect
to the Notes has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the
money due has been obtained by the Note Trustee as provided in the Indenture,
the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities, by written notice to the Property Trustee, the Depositor and the
Note Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

            (i) the Depositor has paid or deposited with the Note Trustee a sum
      sufficient to pay:

                  (A) all overdue installments of interest on all of the Notes;

                  (B) any accrued Additional Interest on all of the Notes;

                                       37
<PAGE>
                  (C) the principal of and any premium, if any, on any Notes
            that have become due otherwise than by such declaration of
            acceleration and interest and Additional Interest thereon at the
            rate borne by the Notes; and

                  (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Note Trustee under the
            Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
            and advances of the Note Trustee, the Property Trustee and their
            agents and counsel; and

            (ii) all Note Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the
      principal of the Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration,
      have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13 of the Indenture.

      Upon receipt by the Property Trustee of written notice requesting such an
acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof, by Holders of any part of the
Preferred Securities, a record date shall be established for determining Holders
of Outstanding Preferred Securities entitled to join in such notice, which
record date shall be at the close of business on the day the Property Trustee
receives such notice. The Holders of Outstanding Preferred Securities on such
record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be
entitled to join in such notice, whether or not such Holders remain Holders
after such record date; provided, that, unless such declaration of acceleration,
or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall have become effective by
virtue of the requisite percentage having joined in such notice prior to the day
that is ninety (90) days after such record date, such notice of declaration of
acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall
automatically and without further action by any Holder of Outstanding Preferred
Securities be canceled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall
prevent a Holder of Outstanding Preferred Securities, or a proxy of a Holder,
from giving, after expiration of such ninety (90)-day period, a new written
notice of declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof, as
the case may be, that is identical to a written notice that has been canceled
pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record
date shall be established pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.10(a).

      (b) For so long as any Preferred Securities remain Outstanding, to the
fullest extent permitted by law and subject to the terms of this Trust Agreement
and the Indenture, upon a Note Event of Default specified in paragraph (a) or
(b) of Section 5.1 of the Indenture, any Holder of Preferred Securities shall
have the right to institute a proceeding directly against the Depositor,
pursuant to Section 5.8 of the Indenture, for enforcement of payment to such
Holder of any amounts payable in respect of Notes having an aggregate principal
amount equal to the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities of
such Holder. Except as set forth in Section 6.10(a) and this Section 6.10(b),
the Holders of Preferred Securities shall have no right to exercise directly any
right or remedy available to the holders of, or in respect of, the Notes.

      (c) Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 6.10, the
Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities
may, on behalf of the Holders of all the outstanding Preferred Securities, waive
any Note Event of Default, except any Note Event of Default arising from the
failure to pay any principal of or any premium, if any, or interest on
(including any Additional Interest) the Notes (unless such Note Event of Default
has been cured and a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest
and all principal and premium, if any, on all Notes due otherwise than by
acceleration has been deposited with the

                                       38
<PAGE>
Note Trustee) or a Note Event of Default in respect of a covenant or provision
that under the Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of
the holder of each outstanding Note. Upon any such waiver, such Note Event of
Default shall cease to exist and any Note Event of Default arising therefrom
shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of the Indenture; but no
such waiver shall affect any subsequent Note Event of Default or impair any
right consequent thereon.

      (d) Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 6.10, the
Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities
may, on behalf of the Holders of all the outstanding Preferred Securities, waive
any past Event of Default and its consequences. Upon such waiver, any such Event
of Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom
shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Trust Agreement,
but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or
impair any right consequent thereon.

      (e) The Holders of a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Property Trustee in
respect of this Trust Agreement or the Notes or exercising any trust or power
conferred upon the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement; provided, that,
subject to Sections 8.5 and 8.7, the Property Trustee shall have the right to
decline to follow any such direction if the Property Trustee being advised by
counsel determines in good faith that the action so directed may not lawfully be
taken, or if the Property Trustee in good faith shall, by an officer or officers
of the Property Trustee, determine that the proceedings so directed would be
illegal or involve it in personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to the
rights of Holders not party to such direction, and provided, further, that
nothing in this Trust Agreement shall impair the right of the Property Trustee
to take any action deemed proper by the Property Trustee and which is not
inconsistent with such direction.

                                  ARTICLE VII.

                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

      banking, trust or general powers of the Property Trustee or the Delaware
      Trustee, as the case may be; and

            (h) to the best of each of the Property Trustee's and the Delaware
      Trustee's knowledge, there are no proceedings pending or threatened
      against or affecting the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee in any
      court or before any governmental authority, agency or arbitration board or
      tribunal that, individually or in the aggregate, would materially and
      adversely affect the Trust or would question the right, power and

                                  ARTICLE VIII.

                                  THE TRUSTEES

      SECTION 8.1. Number of Trustees.

      The number of Trustees shall be four (4); provided, that the Property
Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may be the same Person, in which case the
number of Trustees shall be three (3). The number of Trustees may be increased
or decreased by Act of the Holder of the Common Securities subject to Sections
8.2, 8.3, and 8.4. The death, resignation, retirement, removal, bankruptcy,
incompetence or incapacity to perform the duties of a Trustee shall not operate
to annul, dissolve or terminate the Trust.

      SECTION 8.2. Property Trustee Required.

      There shall at all times be a Property Trustee hereunder with respect to
the Trust Securities. The Property Trustee shall be a corporation or national
banking association organized and doing business under the laws of the United
States or of any state thereof, authorized to exercise corporate trust powers,
having a combined capital and surplus of at least fifty million dollars
($50,000,000), subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authority and having or having a Parent that has an office within the United
States. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually
pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this Section 8.2, the combined capital and
surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as
set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time
the Property Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 8.2, it shall resign immediately in the manner and
with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article VIII.

      SECTION 8.3. Delaware Trustee Required.

      (a) If required by the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, there shall at all
times be a Delaware Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities. The Delaware
Trustee shall either be (i) a natural person who is at least 21 years of age and
a resident of the State of Delaware or (ii) a legal entity that has its
principal place of business in the State of Delaware, otherwise meets the
requirements of applicable Delaware law and shall act through one or more
persons authorized to bind such entity. If at any time the Delaware Trustee
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section
8.3, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter
specified in this Article VIII. The Delaware Trustee shall have the same rights,
privileges and immunities as the Property Trustee.

      (b) The Delaware Trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any powers, nor
shall the Delaware Trustee have any of the duties and responsibilities, of the
Property Trustee or the Administrative Trustees set forth herein. The Delaware
Trustee shall be one of the trustees of the Trust for the sole and limited
purpose of fulfilling the requirements of Section 3807 of the Delaware Statutory
Trust Act and for taking such actions as are required to be taken by a Delaware
trustee under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act. The duties (including fiduciary
duties), liabilities and obligations of the Delaware Trustee shall be limited to
(a) accepting legal

                                       42
<PAGE>
process served on the Trust in the State of Delaware and (b) the execution of
any certificates required to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State
of Delaware that the Delaware Trustee is required to execute under Section 3811
of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act and there shall be no other duties
(including fiduciary duties) or obligations, express or implied, at law or in
equity, of the Delaware Trustee.

      SECTION 8.4. Appointment of Administrative Trustees.

      (a) There shall at all times be one or more Administrative Trustees
hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities. Each Administrative Trustee
shall be either a natural person who is at least 21 years of age or a legal
entity that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind that
entity. Each of the individuals identified as an "Administrative Trustee" in the
preamble of this Trust Agreement hereby accepts his or her appointment as such.

      (b) Except where a requirement for action by a specific number of
Administrative Trustees is expressly set forth in this Trust Agreement, any act
required or permitted to be taken by, and any power of the Administrative
Trustees may be exercised by, or with the consent of, any one such
Administrative Trustee. Whenever a vacancy in the number of Administrative
Trustees shall occur, until such vacancy is filled by the appointment of an
Administrative Trustee in accordance with Section 8.11, the Administrative
Trustees in office, regardless of their number (and notwithstanding any other
provision of this Trust Agreement), shall have all the powers granted to the
Administrative Trustees and shall discharge all the duties imposed upon the
Administrative Trustees by this Trust Agreement.

      SECTION 8.5. Duties and Responsibilities of the Trustees.

      (a) The rights, immunities, duties and responsibilities of the Trustees
shall be as provided by this Trust Agreement and there shall be no other duties
(including fiduciary duties) or obligations, express or implied, at law or in
equity, of the Trustees; provided, however, that if an Event of Default known to
the Property Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Property Trustee shall,
prior to the receipt of directions, if any, from the Holders of at least a
Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, exercise such of the
rights and powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement, and use the same degree
of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use
under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Trust Agreement shall
require any of the Trustees 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 or their rights or powers, if it or they 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.
Whether or not herein expressly so provided, every provision of this Trust
Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording
protection to the Trustees shall be subject to the provisions of this Section
8.5. Nothing in this Trust Agreement shall be construed to release any
Administrative Trustee from liability for his or her own negligent action,
negligent failure to act; or his or her own willful misconduct. To the extent
that, at law or in equity, a Trustee has duties and liabilities relating to the
Trust or to the Holders, such Trustee shall not be liable to the Trust or to any
Holder for such Trustee's good faith reliance on the provisions of this Trust
Agreement. The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they
restrict the duties and liabilities of

                                       43
<PAGE>
the Trustees otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Depositor
and the Holders to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Trustees.

      (b) All payments made by the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent in respect
of the Trust Securities shall be made only from the revenue and proceeds from
the Trust Property and only to the extent that there shall be sufficient revenue
or proceeds from the Trust Property to enable the Property Trustee or a Paying
Agent to make payments in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Holder, by its
acceptance of a Trust Security, agrees that it will look solely to the revenue
and proceeds from the Trust Property to the extent legally available for
distribution to it as herein provided and that the Trustees are not personally
liable to it for any amount distributable in respect of any Trust Security or
for any other liability in respect of any Trust Security. This Section 8.5(b)
does not limit the liability of the Trustees expressly set forth elsewhere in
this Trust Agreement.

      (c) No provisions of this Trust Agreement shall be construed to relieve
the Property Trustee from liability with respect to matters that are within the
authority of the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement for its own
negligent action, negligent failure to act or willful misconduct, except that:

            (i) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any error or
      judgment made in good faith by an authorized officer of the Property
      Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Property Trustee was negligent
      in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

            (ii) the Property 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 at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount
      of the Preferred Securities relating to the time, method and place of
      conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Property Trustee
      hereunder or under the Indenture, or exercising any trust or power
      conferred upon the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement;

            (iii) the Property Trustee's sole duty with respect to the custody,
      safe keeping and physical preservation of the Notes and the Payment
      Account shall be to deal with such Property in a similar manner as the
      Property Trustee deals with similar property for its own account, subject
      to the protections and limitations on liability afforded to the Property
      Trustee under this Trust Agreement;

            (iv) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any interest on
      any money received by it except as it may otherwise agree in writing with
      the Depositor; and money held by the Property Trustee need not be
      segregated from other funds held by it except in relation to the Payment
      Account maintained by the Property Trustee pursuant to Section 3.1 and
      except to the extent otherwise required by law; and

            (v) the Property Trustee shall not be responsible for monitoring the
      compliance by the Administrative Trustees or the Depositor with their
      respective duties under this Trust Agreement, nor shall the Property
      Trustee be liable for the default or misconduct of any other Trustee or
      the Depositor.

                                       44
<PAGE>
      SECTION 8.6. Notices of Defaults.

      (a) Within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of a default actually
known to the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee shall transmit notice of
such default to the Holders, the Administrative Trustees and the Depositor,
unless such default shall have been cured or waived. For the purpose of this
Section 8.6, the term "default" means any event that is, or after notice or
lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default.

      (b) The Property Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any
default or Event of Default unless either (i) a Responsible Officer of the
Property Trustee shall have actual knowledge or (ii) the Property Trustee shall
have received written notice thereof from the Depositor, an Administrative
Trustee or a Holder.

      (c) The Property Trustee shall notify all Holders of the Preferred
Securities of any notice of default received with respect to the Notes.

      SECTION 8.7. Certain Rights of Property Trustee.

      Subject to the provisions of Section 8.5:

            (a) the Property Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be
      protected in acting or refraining from acting in good faith and in
      accordance with the terms hereof upon any resolution, Opinion of Counsel,
      certificate, written representation of an Administrative Trustee, a Holder
      or transferee, certificate of auditors or any other resolution,
      certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
      direction, consent, order, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, other
      evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be
      genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or
      parties;

            (b) if (i) in performing its duties under this Trust Agreement the
      Property Trustee is required to decide between alternative courses of
      action, (ii) in construing any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement
      the Property Trustee finds a provision ambiguous or inconsistent with any
      other provisions contained herein or (iii) the Property Trustee is unsure
      of the application of any provision of this Trust Agreement, then, except
      as to any matter as to which the Holders of the Preferred Securities are
      entitled to vote under the terms of this Trust Agreement, the Property
      Trustee shall deliver a notice to the Depositor requesting the Depositor's
      written instruction as to the course of action to be taken and the
      Property Trustee shall take such action, or refrain from taking such
      action, as the Property Trustee shall be instructed in writing to take, or
      to refrain from taking, by the Depositor; provided, that if the Property
      Trustee does not receive such instructions of the Depositor within ten
      (10) Business Days after it has delivered such notice or such reasonably
      shorter period of time set forth in such notice, the Property Trustee may,
      but shall be under no duty to, take such action, or refrain from taking
      such action, as the Property Trustee shall deem advisable and in the best
      interests of the Holders, in which event the Property Trustee shall have
      no liability except for its own negligence, bad faith or willful
      misconduct;

                                       45
<PAGE>
            (c) any direction or act of the Depositor contemplated by this Trust
      Agreement shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers' Certificate
      unless otherwise expressly provided herein;

            (d) any direction or act of an Administrative Trustee contemplated
      by this Trust Agreement shall be sufficiently evidenced by a certificate
      executed by such Administrative Trustee and setting forth such direction
      or act;

            (e) the Property Trustee shall have no duty to see to any recording,
      filing or registration of any instrument (including any financing or
      continuation statement or any filing under tax or securities laws) or any
      re-recording, re-filing or re-registration thereof;

            (f) the Property Trustee may consult with counsel (which counsel may
      be counsel to the Property Trustee, the Depositor or any of its
      Affiliates, and may include any of its employees) and the advice of such
      counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect
      of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and
      in reliance thereon and in accordance with such advice; the Property
      Trustee shall have the right at any time to seek instructions concerning
      the administration of this Trust Agreement from any court of competent

      reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses (including
      reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) and liabilities that might be
      incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction, including
      reasonable advances as may be requested by the Property Trustee; provided,
      however, that nothing contained in this Section 8.7(g) shall be construed
      to relieve the Property Trustee, upon the occurrence of an Event of
      Default (of which the Property Trustee has knowledge (as provided in
      Section 8.6(b) hereof), of its obligation to exercise the rights and
      powers in it vested by this Trust Agreement; provided, further, that

      Trustee from exercising its rights under Section 8.11 hereof;

            (h) the Property 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,

      evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, unless requested in
      writing to do so by one or more Holders, but the Property Trustee may make

<PAGE>
            (j) whenever in the administration of this Trust Agreement the
      Property Trustee shall deem it desirable to receive instructions with
      respect to enforcing any remedy or right hereunder, the Property Trustee
      (i) may request instructions from the Holders (which instructions may only
      be given by the Holders of the same proportion in Liquidation Amount of
      the Trust Securities as would be entitled to direct the Property Trustee

      prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, request and rely
      on an Officers' Certificate which, upon receipt of such request, shall be
      promptly delivered by the Depositor.

      No provision of this Trust Agreement shall be deemed to impose any duty or
obligation on any Trustee to perform any act or acts or exercise any right,
power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it, in any jurisdiction in
which it shall be illegal, or in which such Person shall be unqualified or
incompetent in accordance with applicable law, to perform any such act or acts,

any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express
trust);

      (b) to reimburse the Trustees upon request for all reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustees in accordance with

or duties hereunder.

      The Trust shall have no payment, reimbursement or indemnity obligations to
the Trustees under this Section 8.10. The provisions of this Section 8.10 shall
survive the termination of this Trust Agreement and the earlier removal or
resignation of any Trustee.

limited to, lost profits, even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood
of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

      In no event shall the Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee be liable
for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder because
of circumstances beyond its control, including, but not limited to, acts of God,
flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo,
government action, including any laws, ordinances, regulations,

applicable requirements of Section 8.12.

      (b) A Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to

to the Holders.

      (c) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, or both of them, may be removed (with
or without cause) at any time by Act of the Holder of Common Securities. If an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Property Trustee or
the Delaware Trustee, or both of them, may be removed (with or without cause) at
such time by Act of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of
the Preferred Securities, delivered to the removed Trustee (in its individual
capacity and on behalf of the Trust). An Administrative Trustee may be removed
(with or without cause) only by Act of the Holder of the Common Securities at

      (d) If any Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting

continuing, the Holder of the Common Securities, by Act of the Holder of the
Common Securities, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees, and
such successor Trustee and the retiring Trustee shall comply with the applicable
requirements of Section 8.12. If the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee

Preferred Securities for at least six (6) months may, on behalf of himself and
all others similarly situated, and any resigning Trustee may, in each case, at
the expense of the Depositor, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Trustee.

      SECTION 8.14. Not Responsible for Recitals, Issuance of Securities, or
Representations.

      The recitals contained herein and in the Securities Certificates shall be
taken as the statements of the Trust and the Depositor, and the Trustees do not

under this Trust Agreement in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred
and vested in it, (ii) each of the representations, undertakings and agreements

or their creditors, the Property Trustee (irrespective of whether any
Distributions on the Trust Securities shall then be due and payable and
irrespective of whether the Property Trustee shall have made any demand on the
Trust for the payment of any past due Distributions) shall be entitled and
empowered, to the fullest extent permitted by law, by intervention in such
proceeding or otherwise:

            (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of any
      Distributions owing and unpaid in respect of the Trust Securities and to

      Property Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in
      such judicial proceeding; and

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

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

                                       51
<PAGE>
      (b) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Property
Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder
any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or compensation affecting
the Trust Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the
Property Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such
proceeding.

      SECTION 8.16. Reports to the Property Trustee.

      (a) The Depositor and the Administrative Trustees shall deliver to the

including the financial statements referenced in such Exhibit, which certificate

                                       52
<PAGE>
      SECTION 9.2. Early Termination.

      The first to occur of any of the following events is an "Early Termination
Event", upon the occurrence of which the Trust shall be dissolved:

            (a) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event in respect of, or the
      dissolution or liquidation of, the Depositor, in its capacity as the
      Holder of the Common Securities, unless the Depositor shall have
      transferred the Common Securities as provided by Section 5.11, in which
      case this provision shall refer instead to any such successor Holder of
      the Common Securities;

            (b) the written direction to the Property Trustee from the Holder of
      the Common Securities at any time to dissolve the Trust and, after
      satisfaction of any liabilities of the Trust as required by applicable law
      and in accordance with written instructions of the Administrative
      Trustees, to distribute the Notes to Holders in exchange for the Preferred
      Securities (which direction is optional and wholly within the discretion
      of the Holder of the Common Securities);

            (c) the redemption of all of the Preferred Securities in connection
      with the payment at maturity or redemption of all the Notes; and

            (d) the entry of an order for dissolution of the Trust by a court of
      competent jurisdiction.

      SECTION 9.3. Termination.

      The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Trustees and the
Trust shall terminate upon the latest to occur of the following: (a) the
distribution by the Property Trustee to Holders of all amounts required to be
distributed hereunder upon the liquidation of the Trust pursuant to Section 9.4,
or upon the redemption of all of the Trust Securities pursuant to Section 4.2;
(b) the satisfaction of any expenses owed by the Trust; and (c) the discharge of
all administrative duties of the Administrative Trustees, including the
performance of any tax reporting obligations with respect to the Trust or the
Holders.

      SECTION 9.4. Liquidation.

      (a) If an Early Termination Event specified in Section 9.2(a), (b) or (d)
occurs or upon the Expiration Date, the Trust shall be liquidated by the
Administrative Trustees as expeditiously as the Administrative Trustees shall
determine to be possible by distributing, after satisfaction of liabilities to
creditors of the Trust as provided by applicable law, to each Holder a Like
Amount of Notes, subject to Section 9.4(d). Notice of liquidation shall be given
by the Administrative Trustees not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty
(60) days prior to the Liquidation Date to each Holder of Trust Securities at
such Holder's address appearing in the Securities Register. All such notices of
liquidation shall:

            (i) state the Liquidation Date;

                                       53
<PAGE>
            (ii) state that from and after the Liquidation Date, the Trust
      Securities will no longer be deemed to be Outstanding and (subject to
      SECTION 9.4(d)) any Securities Certificates not surrendered for exchange
      will be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Notes; and

            (iii) provide such information with respect to the mechanics by
      which Holders may exchange Securities Certificates for Notes, or if
      SECTION 9.4(d) applies, receive a Liquidation Distribution, as the
      Administrative Trustees shall deem appropriate.

      (b) Except where Section 9.2(c) or 9.4(d) applies, in order to effect the
liquidation of the Trust and distribution of the Notes to Holders, the Property
Trustee, either itself acting as exchange agent or through the appointment of a
separate exchange agent, shall establish a record date for such distribution
(which shall not be more than forty five (45) days prior to the Liquidation Date
nor prior to the date on which notice of such liquidation is given to the
Holders) and establish such procedures as it shall deem appropriate to effect
the distribution of Notes in exchange for the Outstanding Securities
Certificates.

      (c) Except where Section 9.2(c) or 9.4(d) applies, after the Liquidation
Date, (i) the Trust Securities will no longer be deemed to be Outstanding, (ii)
certificates representing a Like Amount of Notes will be issued to Holders of
Securities Certificates, upon surrender of such Certificates to the exchange
agent for exchange, (iii) the Depositor shall use its best efforts to have the
Notes listed on the New York Stock Exchange or on such other exchange,
interdealer quotation system or self-regulatory organization on which the
Preferred Securities are then listed, if any, (iv) Securities Certificates not
so surrendered for exchange will be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Notes
bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an amount equal to the accumulated and
unpaid Distributions on such Securities Certificates until such certificates are
so surrendered (and until such certificates are so surrendered, no payments of
interest or principal will be made to Holders of Securities Certificates with
respect to such Notes) and (v) all rights of Holders holding Trust Securities
will cease, except the right of such Holders to receive Notes upon surrender of
Securities Certificates.

      (d) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 9.4, if
distribution of the Notes in the manner provided herein is determined in good
faith by the Property Trustee not to be permitted or practical, the Trust
Property shall be liquidated, and the Trust shall be wound up by the
Administrative Trustees in such manner as the Administrative Trustees
determines. In such event, Holders will be entitled to receive out of the assets
of the Trust legally available for distribution to Holders, after satisfaction
of liabilities to creditors of the Trust as provided by applicable law, an
amount equal to the Liquidation Amount per Trust Security plus accumulated and
unpaid Distributions thereon to the date of payment (such amount being the
"Liquidation Distribution"). If, upon any such winding up the Liquidation
Distribution can be paid only in part because the Trust has insufficient assets
available to pay in full the aggregate Liquidation Distribution, then, subject
to the next succeeding sentence, the amounts payable by the Trust on the Trust
Securities shall be paid on a pro rata basis (based upon Liquidation Amounts).
The Holder of the Common Securities will be entitled to receive Liquidation
Distributions upon any such winding up pro rata (based upon Liquidation Amounts)
with Holders of all Trust Securities, except that, if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Preferred Securities shall have a priority over
the Common Securities as provided in Section 4.3.

      SECTION 9.5. Mergers, Consolidations, Amalgamations or Replacements of
Trust.

      The Trust may not merge with or into, consolidate, amalgamate, or be
replaced by, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety to, any Person except pursuant to this Article IX.
At the request of the Holders of the Common Securities, without the consent of
the Holders of the Preferred Securities, the Trust may merge with or into,
consolidate, amalgamate, or be replaced by or convey, transfer or lease its
properties and assets substantially as an entirety to a trust organized as such
under the laws of any State; provided, that:

            (a) such successor entity either (i) expressly assumes all of the
      obligations of the Trust under this Trust Agreement with respect to the
      Preferred Securities or (ii) substitutes for the Preferred Securities
      other securities having substantially the same terms as the Preferred
      Securities (such other Securities, the "Successor Securities") so long as
      the Successor Securities have the same priority as the Preferred
      Securities with respect to distributions and payments upon liquidation,
      redemption and otherwise;

            (b) a trustee of such successor entity possessing substantially the
      same powers and duties as the Property Trustee is appointed to hold the
      Notes;

            (c) if the Preferred Securities or the Notes are rated, such merger,
      consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease
      does not cause the Preferred Securities or the Notes (including any
      Successor Securities) to be downgraded by any nationally recognized
      statistical rating organization that then assigns a rating to the
      Preferred Securities or the Notes;

            (d) the Preferred Securities are listed, or any Successor Securities
      will be listed upon notice of issuance, on any national securities
      exchange or interdealer quotation system on which the Preferred Securities
      are then listed, if any;

            (e) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement,
      conveyance, transfer or lease does not adversely affect the rights,
      preferences and privileges of the Holders of the Preferred Securities
      (including any Successor Securities) in any material respect;

            (f) such successor entity has a purpose substantially identical to
      that of the Trust;

            (g) prior to such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement,
      conveyance, transfer or lease, the Depositor has received an Opinion of
      Counsel to the effect that (i) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation,
      replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease does not adversely affect the
      rights, preferences and privileges of the Holders of the Preferred
      Securities (including any Successor Securities) in any material respect;
      (ii) following such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement,
      conveyance, transfer or lease, neither the Trust nor such successor entity
      will be required to register as an "investment company" under the
      Investment Company Act and (iii) following such merger, consolidation,
      amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer

                                       55
<PAGE>
      or lease, the Trust (or the successor entity) will continue to be
      classified as a grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes; and

            (h) the Depositor or its permitted transferee owns all of the common
      securities of such successor entity.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust shall not, except with the consent of
Holders of all of the Preferred Securities, consolidate, amalgamate, merge with
or into, or be replaced by or convey, transfer or lease its properties and
assets substantially as an entirety to any other Person or permit any other
entity to consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or replace, the Trust if
such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, replacement, conveyance, transfer or
lease would cause the Trust or the successor entity to be taxable as a
corporation or classified as other than a grantor trust for United States
federal income tax purposes or cause the Notes to be treated as other than
indebtedness of the Depositor for United States federal income tax purposes.

                                   ARTICLE X.

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

      SECTION 10.1. Limitation of Rights of Holders.

      Except as set forth in Section 9.2, the death, bankruptcy, termination,
dissolution or incapacity of any Person having an interest, beneficial or
otherwise, in Trust Securities shall not operate to terminate this Trust
Agreement, nor annul, dissolve or terminate the Trust nor entitle the legal
representatives or heirs of such Person or any Holder for such Person, to claim
an accounting, take any action or bring any proceeding in any court for a
partition or winding up of the arrangements contemplated hereby, nor otherwise
affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of
them.

      SECTION 10.2. Agreed Tax Treatment of Trust and Trust Securities.

      The parties hereto and, by its acceptance or acquisition of a Trust
Security or a beneficial interest therein, the Holder of, and any Person that
acquires a beneficial interest in, such Trust Security intend and agree to treat
the Trust as a grantor trust for United States federal, state and local tax
purposes, and to treat the Trust Securities (including all payments and proceeds
with respect to such Trust Securities) as undivided beneficial ownership
interests in the Trust Property (and payments and proceeds therefrom,
respectively) for United States federal, state and local tax purposes and to
treat the Notes as indebtedness of the Depositor for United States federal,
state and local tax purposes. The provisions of this Trust Agreement shall be
interpreted to further this intention and agreement of the parties set forth in
this Section 10.2.

      SECTION 10.3. Amendment.

      (a) This Trust Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Property
Trustee, the Administrative Trustees and the Holder of all the Common
Securities, without the consent of any Holder of the Preferred Securities, (i)
to cure any ambiguity, correct or

                                       56
<PAGE>
supplement any provision herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any
other provision herein, or to make or amend any other provisions with respect to
matters or questions arising under this Trust Agreement, which shall not be
inconsistent with the other provisions of this Trust Agreement, (ii) to modify,
eliminate or add to any provisions of this Trust Agreement to such extent as
shall be necessary to ensure that the Trust will neither be taxable as a
corporation nor be classified as other than a grantor trust for United States
federal income tax purposes at all times that any Trust Securities are
Outstanding or to ensure that the Notes are treated as indebtedness of the
Depositor for United States federal income tax purposes, or to ensure that the
Trust will not be required to register as an "investment company" under the
Investment Company Act or (iii) to add to the covenants, restrictions or
obligations of the Depositor; provided, that in the case of clauses (i), (ii) or
(iii), such action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Holder.

      (b) Except as provided in Section 10.3(c), any provision of this Trust
Agreement may be amended by the Property Trustee, the Administrative Trustees
and the Holder of all of the Common Securities and with (i) the consent of
Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities
and (ii) receipt by the Trustees of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that
such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Trustees in
accordance with such amendment will not cause the Trust to be taxable as a
corporation or classified as other than a grantor trust for United States
federal income tax purposes or affect the treatment of the Notes as indebtedness
of the Depositor for United States federal income tax purposes or affect the
Trust's exemption from status (or from any requirement to register) as an
"investment company" under the Investment Company Act. In addition to and
subject to the foregoing, the Distribution Dates, Redemption Date and Stated
Maturity (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to the Preferred Securities
or a portion of the Preferred Securities shall be conformed in connection with
any modification of the Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated
Maturity of the Junior Subordinated Notes made by the Company and the Trust at
the direction of any holder of the Preferred Securities or a portion of the
Preferred Securities as set forth in Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement;
provided that the holder of Preferred Securities requesting such a modification
shall be responsible for all reasonable costs incurred by the Depositor or the
Trust to effectuate such modification. Each party hereto acknowledges that (i)
each Holder of Preferred Securities has been granted the right described in
Section 6(m) of its respective Purchase Agreement and (ii) prior to or upon the
election to exercise such right by any such Holder, the Trust Agreement will
need to be amended in order to include certain provisions to effectuate such
right. If, at the time any Holder of Preferred Securities elects to exercise
such right, the Trust Agreement has not been so amended, the Property Trustee,
the Administrative Trustees, the Holder of all of the Common Securities and each
Holder of Preferred Securities each agrees, without prejudice to Section
10.3(f), to use commercially reasonable efforts to so amend the Trust Agreement
upon such election.

      (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, without
the consent of each Holder, this Trust Agreement may not be amended to (i)
change the accrual rate, amount, currency or timing of any Distribution on or
the redemption price of the Trust Securities or otherwise adversely affect the
amount of any Distribution or other payment required to be made in respect of
the Trust Securities as of a specified date, except as set forth in the last
sentence of Section 10.3(b) above, (ii) restrict or impair the right of a Holder
to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such date,
(iii) reduce the percentage of aggregate

                                       57
<PAGE>
Liquidation Amount of Outstanding Preferred Securities, the consent of whose
Holders is required for any such amendment, or the consent of whose Holders is
required for any waiver of compliance with any provision of this Trust Agreement
or of defaults hereunder and their consequences provided for in this Trust
Agreement; (iv) impair or adversely affect the rights and interests of the
Holders in the Trust Property, or permit the creation of any Lien on any portion
of the Trust Property; or (v) modify the definition of "Outstanding," this
Section 10.3(c), Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 6.10(e) or Article IX.

      (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, no
Trustee shall enter into or consent to any amendment to this Trust Agreement
that would cause the Trust to be taxable as a corporation or to be classified as
other than a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes or that
would cause the Notes to fail or cease to be treated as indebtedness of the
Depositor for United States federal income tax purposes or that would cause the
Trust to fail or cease to qualify for the exemption from status (or from any
requirement to register) as an "investment company" under the Investment Company
Act.

      (e) If any amendment to this Trust Agreement is made, the Administrative
Trustees or the Property Trustee shall promptly provide to the Depositor and the
Note Trustee a copy of such amendment.

      (f) No Trustee shall be required to enter into any amendment to this Trust
Agreement that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Trust
Agreement. The Trustees shall be entitled to receive an Opinion of Counsel and
an Officers' Certificate stating that any amendment to this Trust Agreement is
in compliance with this Trust Agreement and all conditions precedent herein
provided for relating to such action have been met.

      (g) No amendment or modification to this Trust Agreement that adversely
affects in any material respect the rights, duties, liabilities, indemnities or
immunities of the Delaware Trustee hereunder shall be permitted without the
prior written consent of the Delaware Trustee.

      (h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Distribution
Dates, Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity (as defined in the
Indenture) are modified pursuant to Section 10.3(b) hereof, the Company and/or
its counsel shall not be required to deliver an Opinion of counsel to effectuate
any such modifications.

      SECTION 10.4. Separability.

      If any provision in this Trust Agreement or in the Securities Certificates
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, and there shall be deemed substituted for the provision at
issue a valid, legal and enforceable provision as similar as possible to the
provision at issue.
