a commitment (which may be oral if promptly confirmed in writing by facsimile
or e-mail), satisfactory in form to the Collateral Agent, to the effect that if
selected as the Final Dealer, such Reference Dealer shall sell to the
Collateral Agent, for delivery against payment on the immediately succeeding
Roll Date, an aggregate principal amount of the U.S. treasury security that is
the Qualifying Treasury Security on such Roll Date equal to the aggregate
principal amount of Qualifying Treasury Securities held in the Collateral

aggregate principal amount of the U.S. treasury security specified in such
offer. If the Collateral Agent determines that (i) a Market Disruption Event
has occurred or (ii) fewer than two Reference Dealers have provided firm offers
in a timely manner meeting the foregoing requirements, the steps contemplated
above shall be taken on each succeeding Business Day on which the Collateral
Agent determines that no Market Disruption Event has occurred until at least
two Reference Dealers have provided such offers, except that the Collateral
Agent shall request offers from the Reference Dealers for same day settlement.
The Collateral Agent shall use reasonable care in administering the foregoing
procedures and shall have no liability in connection therewith to the Issuer
Trust, the Property Trustee, the Company or any other Person in the absence of
gross negligence or willful misconduct. All determinations regarding whether a
Market Disruption Event has occurred shall be made by the Collateral Agent in
its sole discretion.

 

(b)    On each
Roll Date (or, if no Final Dealer shall have been selected on the Trade Date,
on the date that the Final Dealer is selected), the Collateral Agent shall
instruct the Securities Intermediary to apply the Proceeds of the U.S. treasury
securities held in the Collateral Account to the Purchase Price of the
Qualifying Treasury Securities, which shall be deposited in the Collateral
Account, and to apply the excess of such Proceeds over the Purchase Price of
the Qualifying Treasury Securities to purchase Permitted Investments for
deposit in the Collateral Account.

 

(c)    On each
Quarterly Date, if the Qualifying Treasury Securities shall have been purchased
and deposited in the Collateral Account, the Collateral Agent shall liquidate
the Permitted Investments in the Collateral Account and promptly remit the
Proceeds to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for payment to each Holder of
Treasury MCAPS on a pro rata basis.

 

Section 5.6.            Settlement with
Qualifying Treasury Securities.

 

(a)    Upon
receipt by the Collateral Agent of (1) a notice from the Stock Purchase
Contract Agent promptly following the receipt by the Stock Purchase Contract
Agent of a notice from a Holder of Normal MCAPS that such Holder has elected,
in accordance with the procedures specified in Section 6.2 of the Stock
Purchase Contract Agreement, to effect a Settlement with Qualifying Treasury
Securities and (2) delivery by such Holder of Qualifying Treasury Securities
having a principal amount equal to the Purchase Price under the related Stock
Purchase Contracts by deposit in the Collateral Account on or prior to 5:00
p.m. (New York City time) on the first Business Day prior to the beginning of
the Remarketing Period, then any securities or their proceeds received shall be
paid or delivered, as the case may be, to the Company on the Stock Purchase
Date in settlement of the Stock Purchase Contracts in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement and the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement.

 

(b)    If a
Holder of Normal MCAPS (i) fails to notify the Stock Purchase Contract Agent of
its intention to make a Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities as
provided in Section 6.2 of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement or (ii) does
notify the Stock Purchase Contract Agent of its intention to made a Settlement
with Qualifying Treasury Securities but fails to make such delivery as required
by Section 6.2 of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, such Holder shall be
deemed to have consented to the disposition of such Holder’s Pledged Trust
Preferred Securities in accordance with Section 6.2 of the Stock Purchase
Contract Agreement.

 

(c)    As soon
as practicable after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the first Business Day
immediately preceding the beginning of the Remarketing Period, the Collateral
Agent shall deliver to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent a notice,
substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto, stating the number of Pledged
Trust Preferred Securities to be remarketed in the applicable Remarketing
pursuant to Section 6.2(a) of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement.

 

16

 

(d)    If any
Remarketing other than a Final Remarketing is not Successful, the Collateral
Agent shall promptly return the Qualifying Treasury Securities or their
proceeds, as the case may be, that it has received with respect to the
Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities to the Stock Purchase Contract
Agent for distribution to the Holders who elected to effect a Settlement with
Qualifying Treasury Securities.

 

(e)    In the
event of a Successful Remarketing, the Collateral Agent shall (i) instruct the
Securities Intermediary to release from the Pledge such Holder’s related
Pledged Trust Preferred Securities as to which such Holder has effected a
Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities pursuant to Section 5.6(a) and
(ii) instruct the Securities Intermediary to Transfer all such Pledged Trust
Preferred Securities to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for distribution to
such Holder free and clear of the Pledge created hereby.

 

Section 5.7.            Application of
Proceeds in Settlement of Stock Purchase Contracts.

 

(a)    If a
Holder of Normal MCAPS has not elected to make an effective Settlement with
Qualifying Treasury Securities by notifying the Stock Purchase Contract Agent
in the manner provided for in Section 6.2 
of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement or does notify the Stock
Purchase Contract Agent as provided in Section 6.2  of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement of
its intention to deliver Qualifying Treasury Securities having a principal
amount equal to the Purchase Price under the related Stock Purchase Contracts
but fails to make such delivery as required by Section 6.2  of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement,
such Holder shall be deemed to have elected to pay for the Depositary Shares to
be issued under such Stock Purchase Contracts from the Proceeds of the
Remarketing of the related Pledged Trust Preferred Securities.

 

In the event of a Successful
Remarketing, the Collateral Agent shall, upon written instruction of the
Company, instruct the Securities Intermediary to Transfer the related Pledged
Trust Preferred Securities to the Remarketing Agent, upon confirmation of
deposit by the Remarketing Agent of the Proceeds of such Successful Remarketing
(less, to the extent permitted by the Remarketing Agreement, the Remarketing
Fee) in the Collateral Account. On the Stock Purchase Date, the Collateral
Agent shall, in consultation with the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, instruct
the Securities Intermediary to remit a portion of the Proceeds from such
Successful Remarketing equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of such
Pledged Trust Preferred Securities to satisfy in full such Holder’s obligations
to pay the Purchase Price to purchase the Depositary Shares under the related
Stock Purchase Contracts and to remit the balance of the Proceeds from the
Successful Remarketing, if any, to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for
distribution to such Holder.

 

In the event of a Failed
Remarketing, the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Company, will, at the
written instruction of the Company, deliver or dispose of the Pledged Trust
Preferred Securities in accordance with the Company’s written instructions to
satisfy in full, from any such disposition or retention, such Holders’
obligations to pay the Purchase Price for the Depositary Shares to be issued
under the Stock Purchase Contracts underlying such Normal MCAPS. Thereafter,
the Collateral Agent shall promptly remit the Proceeds in excess of the
aggregate Purchase Price for the Depositary Shares to be issued under such
Stock Purchase Contracts to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for payment to
the Holders of the Normal MCAPS to which such Trust Preferred Securities
relate.

 

(b)    A
Holder of a Treasury MCAPS shall be deemed to have elected to pay for the
Depositary Shares to be issued under such Stock Purchase Contracts from the
Proceeds of the related Pledged Treasury Securities. Without receiving any
instruction from any Holder, the Collateral Agent shall instruct the Securities
Intermediary to remit the Proceeds of the related Pledged Treasury Securities
to the Company in settlement of such Stock Purchase Contracts on the Stock
Purchase Date. In the event the

 

17

 

sum of the Proceeds from the related Pledged Treasury Securities
exceeds the aggregate Purchase Price of the Stock Purchase Contracts being
settled thereby, the Collateral Agent shall instruct the Securities
Intermediary to transfer such excess, when received, to the Stock Purchase Contract
Agent for distribution to Holders of the Treasury MCAPS to which such
Qualifying Treasury Securities relate.

 

(c)    On or
prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day immediately
preceding any beginning of a Remarketing Period, but no earlier than the
Payment Date immediately preceding such date, Holders of Separate Trust
Preferred Securities may elect to have their Separate Trust Preferred
Securities remarketed under the Remarketing Agreement, by delivering their
Separate Trust Preferred Securities along with a notice of such election,
substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto, to the Collateral Agent. Any
such notice and delivery may not be conditioned upon the level at which the
Reset Rate is established in the Remarketing or any other condition. The
Collateral Agent shall hold Separate Trust Preferred Securities in an account
separate from the Collateral Account in which the Pledged Securities shall be
held. Holders of Separate Trust Preferred Securities electing to have their
Separate Trust Preferred Securities remarketed will also have the right to
withdraw that election by written notice to the Collateral Agent, substantially
in the form of Exhibit G hereto, on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time)
on the second Business Day immediately preceding the beginning of any
Remarketing Period, upon which notice the Collateral Agent shall return such
Separate Trust Preferred Securities to such Holder. After such time, such
election shall become an irrevocable election to have such Separate Trust
Preferred Securities remarketed in such Remarketing.

 

Promptly after 11:00 a.m.
(New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the beginning of
any Remarketing Period, the Collateral Agent shall notify the Remarketing Agent
of the aggregate liquidation amount of the Separate Trust Preferred Securities
to be remarketed and deliver to the Remarketing Agent for remarketing all
Separate Trust Preferred Securities delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant
to this Section 5.7(c) and not validly withdrawn prior to such date. In the
event of a Successful Remarketing, after deducting the Remarketing Fee, the
Remarketing Agent will remit to the Collateral Agent the remaining portion of
the proceeds of such Remarketing for payment to the Holders of the remarketed
Separate Trust Preferred Securities, in accordance with their respective
interests. In the event of a Failed Remarketing, the Remarketing Agent will
promptly return such Separate Trust Preferred Securities to the Collateral
Agent for distribution to the appropriate Holders.

otherwise available at law or in equity, after an event of default (as
specified in Section 7.1(b) below) hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have
all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured

(b)    Without
limiting any rights or powers otherwise granted by this Agreement to the
Collateral Agent, in the event the Company is unable to make payments from
amounts transferred or transferable to the Company on account of the principal
payments of any Pledged Treasury Securities as provided in Article III hereof,
in satisfaction of the Obligations of the Holder of the Treasury MCAPS of which
such applicable Pledged Treasury Securities are a part under the related Stock
Purchase Contracts, the inability to make such payments shall constitute an
event of default hereunder and the Collateral Agent shall have and may
exercise, with reference to such Pledged Treasury Securities any and all of the
rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC and the Trades
Regulations after default by a debtor, and as otherwise granted herein or under
any other law.

 

(c)    Without
limiting any rights or powers otherwise granted by this Agreement to the
Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized to
receive and collect all payments of (i) the liquidation amount of the Pledged

Treasury Securities, subject, in each case, to the provisions of Article III
hereof, and as otherwise granted herein.

 

(d)    The
Stock Purchase Contract Agent and each Holder of MCAPS agrees that, from time
to time, upon the written request of the Collateral Agent or the Stock Purchase
Contract Agent, such Holder shall execute and deliver such further documents
and do such other acts and things as the Company may reasonably request in
order to maintain the Pledge, and the perfection and priority thereof, and to
confirm the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder. The Stock Purchase
Contract Agent shall have no liability to any Holder for executing any
documents or taking any such acts requested by the Collateral Agent hereunder,
except for liability for its own negligent acts, its own negligent failure to
act or its own willful misconduct.

 

Section 7.2.            Remarketing.

 

The Collateral Agent shall,
promptly after 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately
preceding the beginning of any Remarketing Period, notify the Remarketing Agent
of the aggregate liquidation amount of the Pledged Trust Preferred Securities
that are to be remarketed and without any instruction from any Holder of Normal
MCAPS, present the related Pledged Trust Preferred Securities to the
Remarketing Agent for Remarketing. In the event of a Failed Remarketing, the
Trust

 

20

 

Preferred Securities
presented to the Remarketing Agent pursuant to this Section 7.2 for Remarketing
shall be redeposited into the Collateral Account.

 

Section 7.3.            Successful
Remarketing.

 

In the event of a Successful
Remarketing, the Collateral Agent shall, at the direction of the Company,
instruct the Securities Intermediary to (i) Transfer the Pledged Trust
Preferred Securities to the Remarketing Agent upon confirmation of deposit by
the Remarketing Agent of the Proceeds of such Successful Remarketing (after
deducting any Remarketing Fee in accordance with the Remarketing Agreement) in
the Collateral Account, (ii) apply an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase
Price for the Depositary Shares to be issued under the related Stock Purchase
Contracts in full satisfaction of such Holders’ obligations to pay the Purchase
Price under the related Stock Purchase Contracts, and (iii) promptly remit the
remaining portion of such Proceeds to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for
payment to the Holders of Normal MCAPS, in accordance with their respective
interests and the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement. With respect to Separate
Trust Preferred Securities, any Proceeds of such Remarketing (after deducting
any Remarketing Fee in accordance with the Remarketing Agreement) attributable

event of a Failed Remarketing, the Pledged Trust Preferred Securities shall
remain credited to the Collateral Account and Section 5.7 shall apply.

 

Section 7.4.            Substitutions.

 

Whenever a Holder has the
right to substitute Qualifying Treasury Securities, Trust Preferred Securities
or Security Entitlements for any of them, as the case may be, for financial
assets held in the Collateral Account, such substitution shall not constitute a
novation of the security interest created hereby.

represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent (with respect to such Holder’s
interest in the Collateral), which representations and warranties shall be
deemed repeated on each day a Holder Transfers Collateral, that:

 

(a)    such
Holder has the power to grant a security interest in and lien on the
Collateral;

 

(b)    such
Holder is the sole beneficial owner of the Collateral and, in the case of
Collateral delivered in physical form, is the sole holder of such Collateral
and is the sole beneficial owner of, or has the right to Transfer, the
Collateral it Transfers to the Collateral Agent for credit to the Collateral
Account, free and clear of any security interest, lien, encumbrance, call,
liability to pay money or other restriction other than the security interest

gives the notices and takes the action required of it hereunder and under
applicable law for perfection of that interest and assuming the establishment
and exercise of control pursuant to Article IV hereof); and

 

(d)    the
execution and performance by the Holder of its obligations under this Agreement
will not result in the creation of any security interest, lien or other
encumbrance on the Collateral other than the security interest and lien granted
under Article II hereof or violate any provision of any existing law or
regulation applicable to it or of any mortgage, charge, pledge, indenture,
contract or undertaking to which it is a party or which is binding on it or any

(a)    neither
the Stock Purchase Contract Agent nor such Holders will create or purport to
create or allow to subsist any mortgage, charge, lien, pledge or any other
security interest whatsoever over the Collateral or any part of it other than
pursuant to this Agreement; and

 

(b)    neither
the Stock Purchase Contract Agent nor such Holders will sell or otherwise
dispose (or attempt to dispose) of the Collateral or any part of it except for
the beneficial interest therein, subject to the Pledge hereunder, transferred
in connection with the Transfer of the MCAPS.

ARTICLE IX

THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND THE SECURITIES INTERMEDIARY

 

It is hereby agreed as
follows:

 

Section 9.1.            Appointment, Powers
and Immunities.

 

The Collateral Agent or the
Securities Intermediary shall act as agent for the Company hereunder with such
powers as are specifically vested in the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary, as the case may be, by the terms of this Agreement. The
Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary shall:

 

(a)    have no
duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement
and no implied covenants or obligations shall be inferred from this Agreement
against the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary, nor shall the
Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary be bound by the provisions of
any agreement by any party hereto beyond the specific terms hereof;

 

(b)    not be
responsible for any recitals contained in this Agreement, or in any certificate
or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by it under, this
Agreement, the MCAPS or the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, or for the
value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of
this Agreement (other than as against the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary, as the case may be), the MCAPS, any Collateral or the Stock
Purchase Contract Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for
herein or therein or for any failure by the Company or any other Person (except
the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be) to
perform any of its obligations hereunder or hereunder or for the validity,
perfection, enforceability, priority or, except as expressly required hereby,
maintenance of any security interest created hereunder;

 

(c)    not be
required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings
hereunder (except pursuant to directions furnished under Section 9.2 hereof,
subject to Section 9.8 hereof);

 

(d)    not be
responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or
under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or in

(e)    not be
required to advise any party as to selling or retaining, or taking or
refraining from taking any action with respect to, any securities or other
property deposited hereunder.

 

Subject to the foregoing,
during the term of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent and the Securities
Intermediary shall take all reasonable action in connection with the
safekeeping and preservation of the Collateral hereunder as determined by
industry standards.

 

No provision of this
Agreement shall require the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary to
expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties hereunder. In no event shall the Collateral
Agent or the Securities Intermediary be liable for any amount in excess of the
Value of the Collateral.

 

Section 9.2.            Instructions of the
Company.

 

The Company shall have the
right, by one or more written instruments executed and delivered to the
Collateral Agent, to direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for the realization of any right or remedy in connection with a
Failed Remarketing, or of exercising any power conferred on the Collateral
Agent, or to direct the taking or refraining from taking of any action
authorized by this

 

23

 

Agreement; provided,
however, that (i) such direction shall not conflict with the provisions of any
law or of this Agreement or involve the Collateral Agent in personal liability
and (ii) the Collateral Agent shall be indemnified to its satisfaction as
provided herein. Nothing contained in this Section 9.2 shall impair the right
of the Collateral Agent in its discretion to take any action or omit to take
any action which it deems proper and which is not inconsistent with such
direction. None of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary has any
obligation or responsibility to file UCC financing statements.

 

Section 9.3.            Reliance by
Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary.

 

Each of the Collateral Agent
and the Securities Intermediary shall be entitled, in the absence of bad faith,
to rely conclusively upon any certification, order, judgment, opinion, notice
or other written communication (including, without limitation, any thereof by
e-mail or similar electronic means, telecopy, telex or facsimile) believed by
it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of
the proper Person or Persons (without being required to determine the
correctness of any fact stated therein) and consult with and conclusively rely
upon advice, opinions and statements of legal counsel and other experts
selected by the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case
may be. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the
Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance with
instructions given by the Company in accordance with this Agreement. In the
event any instructions are given (other than in writing at the time of the
execution of the Agreement), whether in writing, by telecopier or otherwise,
the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary are authorized to seek
confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to the person or
persons designated on Schedule II hereto, and the Collateral Agent and the
Securities Intermediary may rely upon the confirmations of anyone purporting to
be the person or persons so designated. The persons and telephone numbers for
call-backs may be changed only in writing actually received and acknowledged by
the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary.

 

It is understood that the
Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary in any funds transfer may rely
solely upon any account numbers or similar identifying number provided by the
Company to identify (i) the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary’s bank, or (iii)
an intermediary bank. The Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary may
apply any of the deposited funds for any payment order it executes using any
such identifying number, even where its use may result in a person other than
the beneficiary being paid, or the transfer of funds to a bank other than the
beneficiary’s bank, or an intermediary bank, designated by the Company.

 

Section 9.4.            Certain Rights.

 

(a)    Whenever in the administration of the
provisions of this Agreement the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or
established prior to taking or suffering any action to be taken hereunder, such
matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically
prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith on the part of
the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, be deemed to be
conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by one of the
Company’s officers, and delivered to the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary and such certificate, in the absence of gross negligence or bad
faith on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, shall
be full warrant to the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary for any
action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Agreement
upon the faith thereof.

 

(b)    The
Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall not be bound to make any
investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, entitlement
order, approval or other paper or document.

 

24

 

Section 9.5.            Merger, Conversion,
Consolidation or Succession to Business.

 

Any corporation into which
the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary may be merged or converted
or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Collateral Agent or the
Securities Intermediary shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all
or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Collateral Agent or
the Securities Intermediary shall be the successor of the Collateral Agent or
the Securities Intermediary hereunder without the execution or filing of any
paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the
parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required
by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.

 

Section 9.6.            Rights in Other
Capacities.

 

The Collateral Agent and the
Securities Intermediary and their affiliates may (without having to account
therefore to the Company) accept deposits from, lend money to, make their
investments in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other
business with the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, any other Person interested
herein and any Holder of MCAPS (and any of their respective subsidiaries or
affiliates) as if it were not acting as the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary, as the case may be, and the Collateral Agent, the Securities
Intermediary and their affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from
the Stock Purchase Contract Agent and any Holder of MCAPS without having to
account for the same to the Company; provided that each of the Securities
Intermediary and the Collateral Agent covenants and agrees with the Company
that it shall not accept, receive or permit there to be created in favor of
itself and shall take no affirmative action to permit there to be created in
favor of any other Person, any security interest, lien or other encumbrance of
any kind in or upon the Collateral other than the lien created by the Pledge.

 

Section 9.7.            Non-reliance on
Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary.

 

None of the Securities
Intermediary or the Collateral Agent shall be required to keep itself informed
as to the performance or observance by the Stock Purchase Contract Agent or any
Holder of MCAPS of this Agreement, the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, the
MCAPS or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to
inspect the properties or books of the Stock Purchase Contract Agent or any
Holder of MCAPS. None of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary
shall have any duty or responsibility to provide the Company with any credit or
other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of
the Stock Purchase Contract Agent or any Holder of MCAPS (or any of their
respective affiliates) that may come into the possession of the Collateral
Agent or the Securities Intermediary or any of their respective affiliates.

 

Section 9.8.            Compensation and
Indemnity.

 

The Company agrees to:

 

(a)    pay the
Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary from time to time such
compensation as shall be agreed in writing between the Company and the
Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, for all
services rendered by them hereunder;

 

(b)   
indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent the Securities
Intermediary and each of their respective directors, officers, agents and
employees (collectively, the “Indemnitees”), from and against any and all
claims, liabilities, losses, damages, fines, penalties and expenses (including
reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) and taxes (other than those based
upon, determined by or measured by the income of the Collateral Agent and
Securities Intermediary) (collectively, “Losses” and individually, a

 

25

 

“Loss”) that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, the
Indemnitees or any of them for following any instructions or other directions
upon which either the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary is
entitled to rely pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, provided that the
Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary has not acted with gross negligence
or engaged in willful misconduct or bad faith with respect to the specific Loss
against which indemnifications sought; and

 

(c)    in
addition to and not in limitation of paragraph (b) immediately above, indemnify
and hold the Indemnitees and each of them harmless from and against any and all
Losses that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against, the Indemnitees
or any of them in connection with or arising out of the Collateral Agent’s or
the Securities Intermediary’s acceptance or performance of its powers and
duties under this Agreement, provided that the Collateral Agent or the
Securities Intermediary has not acted with gross negligence or engaged in
willful misconduct or bad faith with respect to the specific Loss against which
indemnification is sought.

 

The provisions of this
Section and Section 11.7 shall survive the resignation or removal of the
Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary and the termination of this
Agreement.

 

Section 9.9.            Failure to Act.

 

In the event of any
ambiguity in the provisions of this Agreement or any dispute between or
conflicting claims by or among the parties hereto or any other Person with
respect to any funds or property deposited hereunder, then at its sole option,
each of the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall be entitled,
after prompt notice to the Company and the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, to
refuse to comply with any and all claims, demands or instructions with respect
to such property or funds so long as such dispute or conflict shall continue,
and the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall not be or become
liable in any way to any of the parties hereto for its failure or refusal to
comply with such conflicting claims, demands or instructions. The Collateral
Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall be entitled to refuse to act until
either:

 

(a)    such
conflicting or adverse claims or demands shall have been finally determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction or settled by agreement between the
conflicting parties as evidenced in a writing satisfactory to the Collateral
Agent or the Securities Intermediary; or

 

(b)    the
Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall have received security or
an indemnity satisfactory to it sufficient to save it harmless from and against
any and all loss, liability or reasonable out-of-pocket expense which it may
incur by reason of its acting.

 

The Collateral Agent and the
Securities Intermediary may in addition elect to commence an interpleaded
action or seek other judicial relief or orders as the Collateral Agent or the
Securities Intermediary may deem necessary. Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, none of the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary shall be required to take any action that is in its opinion
contrary to law or to the terms of this Agreement, or which would in its
opinion subject it or any of its officers, employees or directors to liability.

 

Section 9.10.          Resignation of
Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary.

 

Subject to the appointment
and acceptance of a successor Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary as
provided below:

 

26

 

(i)    the Collateral Agent and the Securities
Intermediary may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Company and
the Stock Purchase Contract Agent as attorney-in-fact for the Holders of MCAPS;

 

(ii)    the Collateral Agent and the Securities
Intermediary may be removed at any time by the Company; and

 

(iii)    if the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary fails to perform any of its material obligations hereunder in any
material respect for a period of not less than 20 days after receiving written
notice of such failure by the Stock Purchase Contract Agent and such failure
shall be continuing, the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary may
be removed by the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, acting at the direction of the
Holders of MCAPS.

 

provided that any Person at
any time acting as Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary may not resign
or be removed in any one of those capacities without the consent of each party
to this Collateral Agreement unless it resigns or is removed in all such
capacities in which it is then acting.

 

The Stock
Purchase Contract Agent shall promptly notify the Company of any removal of the
Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary pursuant to clause (iii) of
this Section 9.10. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Company shall have
the right to appoint a successor Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary,
as the case maybe, which shall not be an Affiliate of the Stock Purchase
Contract Agent. If no successor Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary
shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30
days after the retiring Collateral Agent’s or Securities Intermediary’s giving
of notice of resignation or the Company’s or the Stock Purchase Contract Agent’s
giving notice of such removal, then the retiring or removed Collateral Agent or
Securities Intermediary may petition any court of competent jurisdiction, at
the expense of the Company, for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent
or Securities Intermediary. The Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary
shall each be a bank or a national banking association which has an office (or
an agency office) in New York City with a combined capital and surplus of at
least $50,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent
or Securities Intermediary hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent or
Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, such successor Collateral Agent or
Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, shall thereupon succeed to and
become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, and
the retiring Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be,
shall take all appropriate action, subject to payment of any amounts then due and
payable to it hereunder, to transfer any money and property held by it
hereunder (including the Collateral) to such successor. The retiring Collateral
Agent or Securities Intermediary shall, upon such succession, be discharged
from its duties and obligations as Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary
hereunder. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s or Securities Intermediary’s
resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, the
provisions of this Article IX shall continue in effect for its benefit in
respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting
as the Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary. Any resignation or removal
of the Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary hereunder, at a time when
such Person is acting as the Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, shall
be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement as the simultaneous resignation or
removal of the Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be.

 

Section 9.11.          Right to Appoint
Agent or Advisor.

 

The Collateral Agent shall
have the right to appoint agents or advisors in connection with any of its
duties hereunder, and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action
taken or omitted by, or in reliance upon the advice of, such agents or advisors
selected in good faith. The appointment of agents

 

27

 

pursuant to this Section
9.11 shall be subject to prior written consent of the Company, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

Section 9.12.          Survival.

 

The provisions of this
Article IX shall survive termination of this Agreement and the resignation or
removal of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary.

 

Section 9.13.          Exculpation.

 

Anything contained in this
Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Collateral
Agent or the Securities Intermediary or their officers, directors, employees or
agents be liable under this Agreement to any third party for indirect, special,
punitive, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, including,
but not limited to, lost profits, whether or not the likelihood of such loss or
damage was known to the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, or any
of them incurred without any act or deed that is found to be attributable to
gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent or
the Securities Intermediary.

class affected thereby shall be required to approve any amendment or proposal
specified in clauses (a) through (c) above.

for any Act of Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any
proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the
substance thereof.

In executing any amendment
permitted by this Article, the Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary
and the Stock Purchase Contract Agent shall be entitled to receive and (subject

(a)   A Holder of Treasury MCAPS

Transfer the same to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for distribution to such
Holder, free and clear of the Pledge created hereby.

 

Section 5.4.            Termination Event.

 

(a)   Upon receipt by the Collateral
Agent of written notice from the Company or the Stock Purchase Contract Agent
in the Form set forth in Exhibit H that a Termination Event has occurred, the 

 

14

 

Collateral Agent shall release
all Collateral from the Pledge and shall promptly instruct the Securities

to the Stock
Purchase Contract Agent for the benefit of the Holders for distribution to such
Holders, in accordance with their respective interests, free and clear of the
Pledge created hereby.

 

(b)   If such Termination Event shall
result from the Company’s becoming a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, and if
the Collateral Agent shall for any reason fail promptly to effectuate the
release and Transfer of all Pledged Trust Preferred Securities, Pledged
Treasury Securities and Proceeds of any of the foregoing, as the case may be,
as provided by this Section 5.4, the Stock Purchase Contract Agent shall:

 

(i)   use
its best efforts to obtain an opinion of a nationally recognized law firm to
the effect that, notwithstanding the Company’s being the debtor in such a
bankruptcy case, the Collateral Agent will not be prohibited from releasing or
Transferring the Collateral as provided in this Section 5.4 and shall deliver
or cause to be delivered such opinion to the Collateral Agent within ten days
after the occurrence of such Termination Event, and if (A) the Stock Purchase
Contract Agent shall be unable to obtain such opinion within ten days after the
occurrence of such Termination Event or (B) the Collateral Agent shall continue,
after delivery of such opinion, to refuse to effectuate the release and
Transfer of all Pledged Trust Preferred Securities, Pledged Treasury Securities
and Proceeds of any of the foregoing, as the case may be, as provided in this
Section 5.4, then the Stock Purchase Contract Agent shall within fifteen days
after the occurrence of such Termination Event commence an action or proceeding
in the court having jurisdiction of the Company’s case under the Bankruptcy
Code seeking an order requiring the Collateral Agent to effectuate the release
and transfer of all Pledged Trust Preferred Securities, Pledged Treasury
Securities and Proceeds of any of the foregoing, or as the case may be, as
provided by this Section 5.4; or

 

(ii)   commence
an action or proceeding like that described in Section 5.4(b)(i) hereof within
ten days after the occurrence of such Termination Event.

 

Section 5.5.            Reinvestment of Proceeds of
Pledged Treasury Securities.

 

(a)   At or about 11:00 A.M., New
York City time, on each Trade Date, the Collateral Agent shall select at least
three Reference Dealers (including at least three Reference Dealers named on
Schedule I hereto or named by any of the Regular Trustees as replacements
therefor who are approved counterparties of The Bank of New
York) and request each of them to provide a commitment (which may
be oral if promptly confirmed in writing by facsimile or e-mail), satisfactory
in form to the Collateral Agent, to the effect that if selected as the Final
Dealer, such Reference Dealer shall sell to the Collateral Agent, for delivery
against payment on the immediately succeeding Roll Date, an aggregate principal
amount of the U.S. treasury security that is the Qualifying Treasury Security
on such Roll Date equal to the aggregate principal amount of Qualifying
Treasury Securities held in the Collateral Account on such Trade Date. If the
Collateral Agent shall have received at least two firm offers, it shall select
the lowest offer and the Reference Dealer providing the lowest offer shall be
the “Final Dealer”; provided that if two or more Reference Dealers have
provided identical lowest offers, the Collateral Agent shall select any of
these Reference Dealers as the Final Dealer in its absolute discretion. The
Final Dealer shall be obligated

 

15

 

to sell to the Collateral
Agent, for Cash on the Roll Date, the aggregate principal amount of the U.S.
treasury security specified in such offer. If the Collateral Agent determines
that (i) a Market Disruption Event has occurred or (ii) fewer than two
Reference Dealers have provided firm offers in a timely manner meeting the
foregoing requirements, the steps contemplated above shall be taken on each
succeeding Business Day on which the Collateral Agent determines that no Market
Disruption Event has occurred until at least two Reference Dealers have
provided such offers, except that the Collateral Agent shall request offers
from the Reference Dealers for same day settlement. The Collateral Agent shall
use reasonable care in administering the foregoing procedures and shall have no
liability in connection therewith to the Issuer Trust, the Property Trustee,
the Company or any other Person in the absence of gross negligence or willful
misconduct. All determinations regarding whether a Market Disruption Event has
occurred shall be made by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion.

 

(b)   On each Roll Date (or, if no
Final Dealer shall have been selected on the Trade Date, on the date that the
Final Dealer is selected), the Collateral Agent shall instruct the Securities
Intermediary to apply the Proceeds of the U.S. treasury securities held in the
Collateral Account to the Purchase Price of the Qualifying Treasury Securities,
which shall be deposited in the Collateral Account, and to apply the excess of
such Proceeds over the Purchase Price of the Qualifying Treasury Securities to
purchase Permitted Investments for deposit in the Collateral Account.

 

(c)   On each Quarterly Date, if the
Qualifying Treasury Securities shall have been purchased and deposited in the
Collateral Account, the Collateral Agent shall liquidate the Permitted
Investments in the Collateral Account and promptly remit the Proceeds to the
Stock Purchase Contract Agent for payment to each Holder of Treasury MCAPS on a
pro rata basis.

 

Section 5.6.            Settlement with Qualifying
Treasury Securities.

 

(a)   Upon receipt by the Collateral
Agent of (1) a notice from the Stock Purchase Contract Agent promptly following
the receipt by the Stock Purchase Contract Agent of a notice from a Holder of
Normal MCAPS that such Holder has elected, in accordance with the procedures
specified in Section 6.2 of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, to effect a
Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities and (2) delivery by such Holder
of Qualifying Treasury Securities having a principal amount equal to the
Purchase Price under the related Stock Purchase Contracts by deposit in the
Collateral Account on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the first
Business Day prior to the beginning of the Remarketing Period, then any
securities or their proceeds received shall be paid or delivered, as the case
may be, to the Company on the Stock Purchase Date in settlement of the Stock
Purchase Contracts in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Stock
Purchase Contract Agreement.

 

(b)   If a Holder of Normal MCAPS (i)
fails to notify the Stock Purchase Contract Agent of its intention to make a
Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities as provided in Section 6.2 of the
Stock Purchase Contract Agreement or (ii) does notify the Stock Purchase
Contract Agent of its intention to made a Settlement with Qualifying Treasury
Securities but fails to make such delivery as required by Section 6.2 of the
Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, such Holder shall be deemed to have
consented to the disposition of such Holder’s Pledged Trust Preferred
Securities in accordance with Section 6.2 of the Stock Purchase Contract
Agreement.

 

(c)   As soon as practicable after
5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the first Business Day immediately preceding
the beginning of the Remarketing Period, the Collateral Agent shall deliver to
the Stock Purchase Contract Agent a notice, substantially in the form of
Exhibit E hereto, stating the number of Pledged Trust Preferred Securities to
be remarketed in the applicable Remarketing pursuant to Section 6.2(a) of the
Stock Purchase Contract Agreement.

 

16

 

(d)   If any Remarketing other than a
Final Remarketing is not Successful, the Collateral Agent shall promptly return
the Qualifying Treasury Securities or their proceeds, as the case may be, that
it has received with respect to the Settlement with Qualifying Treasury
Securities to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for distribution to the Holders
who elected to effect a Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities.

 

(e)   In the event of a Successful
Remarketing, the Collateral Agent shall (i) instruct the Securities
Intermediary to release from the Pledge such Holder’s related Pledged Trust
Preferred Securities as to which such Holder has effected a Settlement with
Qualifying Treasury Securities pursuant to Section 5.6(a) and (ii) instruct the
Securities Intermediary to Transfer all such Pledged Trust Preferred Securities
to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for distribution to such Holder free and
clear of the Pledge created hereby.

 

Section 5.7.            Application of Proceeds in
Settlement of Stock Purchase Contracts.

 

(a)   If a Holder of Normal MCAPS has
not elected to make an effective Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities
by notifying the Stock Purchase Contract Agent in the manner provided for in
Section 6.2  of the Stock Purchase
Contract Agreement or does notify the Stock Purchase Contract Agent as provided
in Section 6.2  of the Stock Purchase
Contract Agreement of its intention to deliver Qualifying Treasury Securities
having a principal amount equal to the Purchase Price under the related Stock
Purchase Contracts but fails to make such delivery as required by Section
6.2  of the Stock Purchase Contract
Agreement, such Holder shall be deemed to have elected to pay for the
Depositary Shares to be issued under such Stock Purchase Contracts from the
Proceeds of the Remarketing of the related Pledged Trust Preferred Securities.

 

In the event of a Successful
Remarketing, the Collateral Agent shall, upon written instruction of the
Company, instruct the Securities Intermediary to Transfer the related Pledged
Trust Preferred Securities to the Remarketing Agent, upon confirmation of
deposit by the Remarketing Agent of the Proceeds of such Successful Remarketing
(less, to the extent permitted by the Remarketing Agreement, the Remarketing
Fee) in the Collateral Account. On the Stock Purchase Date, the Collateral Agent
shall, in consultation with the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, instruct the
Securities Intermediary to remit a portion of the Proceeds from such Successful
Remarketing equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of such Pledged Trust
Preferred Securities to satisfy in full such Holder’s obligations to pay the
Purchase Price to purchase the Depositary Shares under the related Stock
Purchase Contracts and to remit the balance of the Proceeds from the Successful
Remarketing, if any, to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for distribution to
such Holder.

 

In the event of a Failed
Remarketing, the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Company, will, at the
written instruction of the Company, deliver or dispose of the Pledged Trust
Preferred Securities in accordance with the Company’s written instructions to
satisfy in full, from any such disposition or retention, such Holders’
obligations to pay the Purchase Price for the Depositary Shares to be issued
under the Stock Purchase Contracts underlying such Normal MCAPS. Thereafter,
the Collateral Agent shall promptly remit the Proceeds in excess of the
aggregate Purchase Price for the Depositary Shares to be issued under such
Stock Purchase Contracts to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for payment to
the Holders of the Normal MCAPS to which such Trust Preferred Securities
relate.

 

(b)   A Holder of a Treasury MCAPS
shall be deemed to have elected to pay for the Depositary Shares to be issued
under such Stock Purchase Contracts from the Proceeds of the related Pledged
Treasury Securities. Without receiving any instruction from any Holder, the
Collateral Agent shall instruct the Securities Intermediary to remit the
Proceeds of the related Pledged Treasury Securities to the Company in
settlement of such Stock Purchase Contracts on the Stock Purchase Date. In the
event the

 

17

 

sum of the Proceeds from the
related Pledged Treasury Securities exceeds the aggregate Purchase Price of the
Stock Purchase Contracts being settled thereby, the Collateral Agent shall
instruct the Securities Intermediary to transfer such excess, when received, to
the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for distribution to Holders of the Treasury
MCAPS to which such Qualifying Treasury Securities relate.

 

(c)   On or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New
York City time) on the second Business Day immediately preceding any beginning
of a Remarketing Period, but no earlier than the Payment Date immediately
preceding such date, Holders of Separate Trust Preferred Securities may elect
to have their Separate Trust Preferred Securities remarketed under the
Remarketing Agreement, by delivering their Separate Trust Preferred Securities
along with a notice of such election, substantially in the form of Exhibit F
hereto, to the Collateral Agent. Any such notice and delivery may not be
conditioned upon the level at which the Reset Rate is established in the
Remarketing or any other condition. The Collateral Agent shall hold Separate
Trust Preferred Securities in an account separate from the Collateral Account
in which the Pledged Securities shall be held. Holders of Separate Trust
Preferred Securities electing to have their Separate Trust Preferred Securities
remarketed will also have the right to withdraw that election by written notice
to the Collateral Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto, on or
prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day immediately
preceding the beginning of any Remarketing Period, upon which notice the
Collateral Agent shall return such Separate Trust Preferred Securities to such
Holder. After such time, such election shall become an irrevocable election to
have such Separate Trust Preferred Securities remarketed in such Remarketing.

 

Promptly after 11:00 a.m.
(New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the beginning of
any Remarketing Period, the Collateral Agent shall notify the Remarketing Agent
of the aggregate liquidation amount of the Separate Trust Preferred Securities
to be remarketed and deliver to the Remarketing Agent for remarketing all
Separate Trust Preferred Securities delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant
to this Section 5.7(c) and not validly withdrawn prior to such date. In the
event of a Successful Remarketing, after deducting the Remarketing Fee, the
Remarketing Agent will remit to the Collateral Agent the remaining portion of
the proceeds of such Remarketing for payment to the Holders of the remarketed
Separate Trust Preferred Securities, in accordance with their respective
interests. In the event of a Failed Remarketing, the Remarketing Agent will
promptly return such Separate Trust Preferred Securities to the Collateral
Agent for distribution to the appropriate Holders.

transferable to the Company on account of the principal payments of any Pledged
Treasury Securities as provided in Article III hereof, in satisfaction of the
Obligations of the Holder of the Treasury MCAPS of which such applicable
Pledged Treasury Securities are a part under the related Stock Purchase
Contracts, the inability to make such payments shall constitute an event of
default hereunder and the Collateral Agent shall have and may exercise, with
reference to such Pledged Treasury Securities any and all of the rights and
remedies available to a secured party under the UCC and the Trades Regulations
after default by a debtor, and as otherwise granted herein or under any other

request of the Collateral Agent or the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, such
Holder shall execute and deliver such further documents and do such other acts
and things as the Company may reasonably request in order to maintain the
Pledge, and the perfection and priority thereof, and to confirm the rights of
the Collateral Agent hereunder. The Stock Purchase Contract Agent shall have no
liability to any Holder for executing any documents or taking any such acts
requested by the Collateral Agent hereunder, except for liability for its own
negligent acts, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct.

 

Section 7.2.            Remarketing.

 

The Collateral Agent shall,
promptly after 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately
preceding the beginning of any Remarketing Period, notify the Remarketing Agent

In the event of a Successful
Remarketing, the Collateral Agent shall, at the direction of the Company,
instruct the Securities Intermediary to (i) Transfer the Pledged Trust
Preferred Securities to the Remarketing Agent upon confirmation of deposit by
the Remarketing Agent of the Proceeds of such Successful Remarketing (after
deducting any Remarketing Fee in accordance with the Remarketing Agreement) in
the Collateral Account, (ii) apply an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase
Price for the Depositary Shares to be issued under the related Stock Purchase
Contracts in full satisfaction of such Holders’ obligations to pay the Purchase
Price under the related Stock Purchase Contracts, and (iii) promptly remit the
remaining portion of such Proceeds to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for
payment to the Holders of Normal MCAPS, in accordance with their respective
interests and the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement. With respect to Separate
Trust Preferred Securities, any Proceeds of such Remarketing (after deducting
any Remarketing Fee in accordance with the Remarketing Agreement) attributable

Whenever a Holder has the
right to substitute Qualifying Treasury Securities, Trust Preferred Securities
or Security Entitlements for any of them, as the case may be, for financial

novation of the security interest created hereby.

regulation applicable to it or of any mortgage, charge, pledge, indenture,
contract or undertaking to which it is a party or which is binding on it or any

this Agreement (other than as against the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary, as the case may be), the MCAPS, any Collateral or the Stock
Purchase Contract Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for
herein or therein or for any failure by the Company or any other Person (except
the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be) to
perform any of its obligations hereunder or hereunder or for the validity,
perfection, enforceability, priority or, except as expressly required hereby,
maintenance of any security interest created hereunder;

required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings
hereunder (except pursuant to directions furnished under Section 9.2 hereof,
subject to Section 9.8 hereof);

or responsibility to file UCC financing statements.

Each of the Collateral Agent and the Securities
Intermediary shall be entitled, in the absence of bad faith, to rely
conclusively upon any certification, order, judgment, opinion, notice or other
written communication (including, without limitation, any thereof by e-mail or
similar electronic means, telecopy, telex or facsimile) believed by it to be genuine
and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper
Person or Persons (without being required to determine the correctness of any
fact stated therein) and consult with and conclusively rely upon advice,
opinions and statements of legal counsel and other experts selected by the
Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be. As to any
matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Collateral Agent and
the Securities Intermediary shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or
in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance with instructions given by
the Company in accordance with this Agreement. In the event any instructions
are given (other than in writing at the time of the execution of the Agreement),
whether in writing, by telecopier or otherwise, the Collateral Agent and the
Securities Intermediary are authorized to seek confirmation of such
instructions by telephone call-back to the person or persons designated on
Schedule II hereto, and the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary
may rely upon the confirmations of anyone purporting to be the person or
persons so designated. The persons and telephone numbers for call-backs may be
changed only in writing actually received and acknowledged by the Collateral
Agent and the Securities Intermediary.

 

It is understood that the Collateral Agent and the
Securities Intermediary in any funds transfer may rely solely upon any account
numbers or similar identifying number provided by the Company to identify (i)
the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary’s bank, or (iii) an intermediary bank.
The Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary may apply any of the
deposited funds for any payment order it executes using any such identifying
number, even where its use may result in a person other than the beneficiary
being paid, or the transfer of funds to a bank other than the beneficiary’s
bank, or an intermediary bank, designated by the Company.

 

Section 9.4.            Certain
Rights.

 

(a)   Whenever
in the administration of the provisions of this Agreement the Collateral Agent
or the Securities Intermediary shall deem it necessary or desirable that a
matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action to be
taken hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be
herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence or bad
faith on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, be
deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by one
of the Company’s officers, and delivered to the Collateral Agent or the
Securities Intermediary and such certificate, in the absence of gross negligence
or bad faith on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary, shall be full warrant to the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the
provisions of this Agreement upon the faith thereof.

 

(b)   The
Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall not be bound to make any
investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, entitlement
order, approval or other paper or document.

Section 9.5.            Merger,
Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

the Securities Intermediary may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary
shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of
the corporate trust business of the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary shall be the successor of the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any
party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except
where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such
succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

 

Section 9.6.            Rights
in Other Capacities.

 

The Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary
and their affiliates may (without having to account therefore to the Company)
accept deposits from, lend money to, make their investments in and generally
engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Stock Purchase
Contract Agent, any other Person interested herein and any Holder of MCAPS (and
any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates) as if it were not acting as
the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, and
the Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary and their affiliates may
accept fees and other consideration from the Stock Purchase Contract Agent and
any Holder of MCAPS without having to account for the same to the Company;
provided that each of the Securities Intermediary and the Collateral Agent
covenants and agrees with the Company that it shall not accept, receive or
permit there to be created in favor of itself and shall take no affirmative
action to permit there to be created in favor of any other Person, any security
interest, lien or other encumbrance of any kind in or upon the Collateral other
than the lien created by the Pledge.

 

Section 9.7.            Non-reliance
on Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary.

 

None of the Securities Intermediary or the
Collateral Agent shall be required to keep itself informed as to the

MCAPS of this Agreement, the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, the MCAPS or
any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect
the properties or books of the Stock Purchase Contract Agent or any Holder of

any duty or responsibility to provide the Company with any credit or other
information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the
Stock Purchase Contract Agent or any Holder of MCAPS (or any of their
respective affiliates) that may come into the possession of the Collateral
Agent or the Securities Intermediary or any of their respective affiliates.

 

Section 9.8.            Compensation
and Indemnity.

 

The Company agrees to:

 

(a)   pay the
Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary from time to time such
compensation as shall be agreed in writing between the Company and the
Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, for all
services rendered by them hereunder;

 

(b)   indemnify
and hold harmless the Collateral Agent the Securities Intermediary and each of
their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (collectively, the
“Indemnitees”), from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses,

of counsel) and taxes (other than those based upon, determined by or measured
by the income of the Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary)
(collectively, “Losses” and individually, a

 

25

 

“Loss”) that may be imposed on,
incurred by, or asserted against, the Indemnitees or any of them for following
any instructions or other directions upon which either the Collateral Agent or
the Securities Intermediary is entitled to rely pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, provided that the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary
has not acted with gross negligence or engaged in willful misconduct or bad
faith with respect to the specific Loss against which indemnifications sought;
and

 

(c)   in
addition to and not in limitation of paragraph (b) immediately above, indemnify
and hold the Indemnitees and each of them harmless from and against any and all
Losses that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against, the Indemnitees
or any of them in connection with or arising out of the Collateral Agent’s or
the Securities Intermediary’s acceptance or performance of its powers and
duties under this Agreement, provided that the Collateral Agent or the
Securities Intermediary has not acted with gross negligence or engaged in
willful misconduct or bad faith with respect to the specific Loss against which
indemnification is sought.

 

The provisions of this Section and Section 11.7
shall survive the resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent or Securities
Intermediary and the termination of this Agreement.

 

Section 9.9.            Failure
to Act.

 

In the event of any ambiguity in the provisions of
this Agreement or any dispute between or conflicting claims by or among the
parties hereto or any other Person with respect to any funds or property
deposited hereunder, then at its sole option, each of the Collateral Agent and
the Securities Intermediary shall be entitled, after prompt notice to the
Company and the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, to refuse to comply with any and
all claims, demands or instructions with respect to such property or funds so
long as such dispute or conflict shall continue, and the Collateral Agent and
the Securities Intermediary shall not be or become liable in any way to any of
the parties hereto for its failure or refusal to comply with such conflicting
claims, demands or instructions. The Collateral Agent and the Securities
Intermediary shall be entitled to refuse to act until either:

 

(a)   such
conflicting or adverse claims or demands shall have been finally determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction or settled by agreement between the
conflicting parties as evidenced in a writing satisfactory to the Collateral
Agent or the Securities Intermediary; or

 

(b)   the
Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall have received security or
an indemnity satisfactory to it sufficient to save it harmless from and against
any and all loss, liability or reasonable out-of-pocket expense which it may
incur by reason of its acting.

 

The Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary
may in addition elect to commence an interpleaded action or seek other judicial
relief or orders as the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary may
deem necessary. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, none
of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall be required to
take any action that is in its opinion contrary to law or to the terms of this
Agreement, or which would in its opinion subject it or any of its officers,
employees or directors to liability.

 

Section 9.10.          Resignation
of Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary.

 

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a
successor Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary as provided below:

 

26

 

(i)   the Collateral Agent and the Securities
Intermediary may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Company and
the Stock Purchase Contract Agent as attorney-in-fact for the Holders of MCAPS;

 

(ii)   the Collateral Agent and the Securities
Intermediary may be removed at any time by the Company; and

 

(iii)   if the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary fails to perform any of its material obligations hereunder in any
material respect for a period of not less than 20 days after receiving written
notice of such failure by the Stock Purchase Contract Agent and such failure shall
be continuing, the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary may be
removed by the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, acting at the direction of the
Holders of MCAPS.

 

provided that any Person at any time acting as
Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary may not resign or be removed in any
one of those capacities without the consent of each party to this Collateral
Agreement unless it resigns or is removed in all such capacities in which it is
then acting.

 

The Stock Purchase Contract Agent shall promptly
notify the Company of any removal of the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 9.10. Upon any such
resignation or removal, the Company shall have the right to appoint a successor
Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case maybe, which shall not
be an Affiliate of the Stock Purchase Contract Agent. If no successor
Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary shall have been so appointed and
shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring
Collateral Agent’s or Securities Intermediary’s giving of notice of resignation
or the Company’s or the Stock Purchase Contract Agent’s giving notice of such
removal, then the retiring or removed Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary
may petition any court of competent jurisdiction, at the expense of the
Company, for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent or Securities
Intermediary. The Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall each
be a bank or a national banking association which has an office (or an agency
office) in New York City with a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent or
Securities Intermediary hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent or Securities
Intermediary, as the case may be, such successor Collateral Agent or Securities
Intermediary, as the case may be, shall thereupon succeed to and become vested
with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral
Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, and the retiring
Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, shall take all
appropriate action, subject to payment of any amounts then due and payable to
it hereunder, to transfer any money and property held by it hereunder
(including the Collateral) to such successor. The retiring Collateral Agent or
Securities Intermediary shall, upon such succession, be discharged from its
duties and obligations as Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary
hereunder. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s or Securities Intermediary’s
resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, the
provisions of this Article IX shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect
of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the
Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary. Any resignation or removal of the
Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary hereunder, at a time when such
Person is acting as the Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, shall be
deemed for all purposes of this Agreement as the simultaneous resignation or
removal of the Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be.

 

Section 9.11.          Right
to Appoint Agent or Advisor.

 

The Collateral Agent shall have the right to appoint
agents or advisors in connection with any of its duties hereunder, and the
Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by, or in
reliance upon the advice of, such agents or advisors selected in good faith.
The appointment of agents

 

27

 

pursuant to this Section 9.11
shall be subject to prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld.

 

Section 9.12.          Survival.

 

The provisions of this Article IX shall survive
termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Collateral
Agent or the Securities Intermediary.

 

Section 9.13.          Exculpation.

 

Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, in no event shall the Collateral Agent or the Securities
Intermediary or their officers, directors, employees or agents be liable under
this Agreement to any third party for indirect, special, punitive, or
consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, including, but not limited
to, lost profits, whether or not the likelihood of such loss or damage was
known to the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, or any of them
incurred without any act or deed that is found to be attributable to gross
negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent or the
Securities Intermediary.

holders of Normal MCAPS to substitute the Qualifying Treasury Securities for

majority of such class; provided further that the unanimous consent of the

thereby shall be required to approve any amendment or proposal specified in
clauses (a) through (c) above.

In executing any amendment permitted by this
Article, the Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary and the Stock
Purchase Contract Agent shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section
