shall undertake to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in
this Guarantee Agreement, and no implied covenants shall be read into this
Guarantee Agreement against the Guarantee Trustee. In case an Event of Default
has occurred (that has not been cured or waived pursuant to Section 2.06), the

exercise thereof, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the

relieve the Guarantee Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its
own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

or waiving of all such Events of Default that may have occurred:

                  (A) the duties and obligations of the Guarantee Trustee shall
         be determined solely by the express provisions of this Guarantee

         forth in this Guarantee Agreement, and no implied covenants or
         obligations shall be read into this Guarantee Agreement against the
         Guarantee Trustee; and

<PAGE>

                  (B) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Guarantee
         Trustee, the Guarantee Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth
         of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed
         therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Guarantee
         Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Guarantee Agreement;
         provided, however, that in the case of any such certificates or
         opinions that by any provision hereof or the Trust Indenture Act are
         specifically required to be furnished to the Guarantee Trustee, the
         Guarantee Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to
         determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this
         Guarantee Agreement or the Trust Indenture Act, as the case may be.

judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Guarantee Trustee,

ascertaining the pertinent facts upon which such judgment was made;

action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
direction of the Holders of a Majority of Outstanding Preferred Securities
relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Guarantee Trustee, or exercising any trust or power
conferred upon the Guarantee Trustee under this Guarantee Agreement; and

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

         (c) Subject to the provisions of Section 3.02(a) and (b):

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

counsel to the Guarantor or any of its Affiliates and may include any of its
employees) selected by it in good faith and with due care and the written advice
or opinion of such counsel with respect to legal matters 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 and opinion and (B) shall have the right at any time
to seek instructions concerning the administration of this Guarantee Agreement
from any court of competent jurisdiction;

         (iii) the Guarantee Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers
hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through
agents or attorneys, and the Guarantee

<PAGE>

Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of
any agent or attorney appointed by it in good faith and with due care;

         (iv) the Guarantee Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any
of the rights or powers vested in it by this Guarantee Agreement at the request
or direction of any Holder, unless such Holder shall have offered to the
Guarantee Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to the Guarantee Trustee
against the costs, expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses) and
liabilities that might be incurred by it in complying with such request or
direction; provided that nothing contained in this clause (iv) shall relieve the
Guarantee Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
(which has not been cured or waived) to exercise such of the rights and powers
vested in it by this Guarantee Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and
skill in this exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs; and

         (v) any action taken by the Guarantee Trustee or its agents hereunder
shall bind the Holders, and the signature of the Guarantee Trustee or its agents
alone shall be sufficient and effective to perform any such action; and no third
party shall be required to inquire as to the authority of the Guarantee Trustee
to so act, or as to its compliance with any of the terms and provisions of this
Guarantee Agreement, both of which shall be conclusively evidenced by the
Guarantee Trustee's or its agent's taking such action.

         Section 3.03 Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Guarantee.

         The recitals contained in this Guarantee Agreement shall be taken as
the statements of the Guarantor, and the Guarantee Trustee does not assume any

         Section 3.04 The Guarantee Trustee May Own Preferred Securities.

         The Guarantee Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may
become the owner or pledgee of Preferred Securities and may otherwise deal with
the Guarantor with the same rights it would have if it were not the Guarantee
Trustee.

         Section 3.05 Moneys Received by the Guarantee Trustee to Be Held in
                      Trust without Interest

         All moneys received by the Guarantee Trustee in respect of Guarantee
Payments shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for
the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other
funds except to the extent required by law. The Guarantee Trustee shall be under
no liability for interest on any moneys received by it hereunder except such as
it may agree in writing to pay thereon.

<PAGE>

         Section 3.06 Compensation and Expenses of Guarantee Trustee.

         The Guarantor covenants and agrees to pay to the Guarantee Trustee from
time to time, and the Guarantee Trustee shall be entitled to, such compensation
as the Guarantor and the Guarantee Trustee shall from time to time agree in
writing (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the
compensation of a Guarantee Trustee of an express trust) for all services
rendered by it in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties
hereunder of the Guarantee Trustee, and the Guarantor will pay or reimburse the
Guarantee Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements
and advances incurred or made by the Guarantee Trustee in accordance with any of
the provisions of this Guarantee Agreement (including the reasonable
compensation and the reasonable expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of
all persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement
or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith. The Guarantor also
covenants to indemnify each of the Guarantee Trustee or any predecessor
Guarantee Trustee and their officers, agents, directors and employees for, and
to hold them harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claim or
expense including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined
by the income, profit, franchise or doing business of the Guarantee Trustee)
incurred without negligence or bad faith on the part of the Guarantee Trustee
and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of
this trust, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself
against any claim (whether asserted by the Guarantor, any Holder or any other
Person) of liability in the premises. The provisions of this Section 3.06 shall
survive the termination of this Guarantee Agreement and resignation or removal
of the Guarantee Trustee.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                                GUARANTEE TRUSTEE

         Section 4.01 Qualifications.

         There shall at all times be a Guarantee Trustee that shall:

         (i) not be an Affiliate of the Guarantor; and

         (ii) be a national banking association or corporation organized and
doing business under the laws of the United States of America or any State or
Territory thereof or of the District of Columbia, or a corporation or Person
permitted by the Commission to act as an institutional trustee under the Trust
Indenture Act, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers,
having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, and subject to
supervision or examination by Federal, State, Territorial or District of
Columbia authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the supervising or examining
authority referred to above, then for the purposes of this clause (ii), the
combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its
combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition
so published.

<PAGE>

         If at any time the Guarantee Trustee shall cease to satisfy the
requirements of clauses (i) and (ii) above, the Guarantee Trustee shall
immediately resign in the manner and with the effect set out in Section 4.02. If
the Guarantee Trustee has or shall acquire any "conflicting interest" within the
meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Guarantee Trustee and
the Guarantor shall in all respects comply with the provisions of Section 310(b)
of the Trust Indenture Act.

         Section 4.02 Appointment, Removal and Resignation of the Guarantee
                      Trustee

         (a) Subject to Section 4.02(b), the Guarantee Trustee may be appointed
or removed without cause at any time by the Guarantor.

         (b) The Guarantee Trustee shall not be removed in accordance with
Section 4.02(a) until a Successor Guarantee Trustee possessing the
qualifications to act as Guarantee Trustee under Section 4.01 has been appointed
and has accepted such appointment by written instrument executed by such
Successor Guarantee Trustee and delivered to the Guarantor and the Guarantee
Trustee being removed.

         (c) The Guarantee Trustee appointed to office shall hold office until
its successor shall have been appointed or until its removal or resignation.

         (d) The Guarantee Trustee may resign from office (without need for
prior or subsequent accounting) by an instrument (a "Resignation Request") in
writing signed by the Guarantee Trustee and delivered to the Guarantor, which
resignation shall take effect upon such delivery or upon such later date as is
specified therein; provided, however, that no such resignation of the Guarantee
Trustee shall be effective until a Successor Guarantee Trustee possessing the
qualifications to act as Guarantee Trustee under Section 4.01 has been appointed
and has accepted such appointment by instrument executed by such Successor
Guarantee Trustee and delivered to the Guarantor and the resigning Guarantee
Trustee.

         (e) If no Successor Guarantee Trustee shall have been appointed and
accepted appointment as provided in this Section 4.02 within 60 days after
delivery to the Guarantor of a Resignation Request, the resigning Guarantee
Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a
Successor Guarantee Trustee. Such court may thereupon after such notice, if any,
as it may deem proper, appoint a Successor Guarantee Trustee.

                                    ARTICLE V
                                    GUARANTEE

         Section 5.01 Guarantee.

         The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to pay in full to
the Holders the Guarantee Payments (without duplication of amounts theretofore
paid by the Issuer), as and when due, regardless of any defense, right of set-
off or counterclaim which the Issuer may have or assert. The Guarantor's
obligation to make a Guarantee Payment may be satisfied by direct

<PAGE>

payment of the required amounts by the Guarantor to the Holders or to the
Guarantee Trustee for remittance to the Holders or by causing the Issuer to pay
such amounts to the Holders.

         Section 5.02 Waiver of Notice.

         The Guarantor hereby waives notice of acceptance of this Guarantee
Agreement and of any liability to which it applies or may apply, presentment,
demand for payment, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer
or any other Person before proceeding against the Guarantor, protest, notice of
nonpayment, notice of dishonor, notice of redemption and all other notices and
demands. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Guarantor retains
all of its rights under the Indenture to extend the interest payment period on
the Debentures and the Guarantor shall not be obligated hereunder to make any
Guarantee Payment during any Extended Interest Payment Period (as defined in the
Supplemental Indenture) with respect to the Distributions on the Preferred
Securities.

         Section 5.03 Obligations Not Affected.

         The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of the Guarantor
under this Guarantee Agreement shall in no way be affected or impaired by reason
of the happening from time to time of any of the following:

         (a) the release or waiver, by operation of law or otherwise, of the
performance or observance by the Issuer of any express or implied agreement,
covenant, term or condition relating to the Preferred Securities to be performed
or observed by the Issuer;

         (b) the extension of time for the payment by the Issuer of all or any
portion of the Distributions (other than an extension of time for payment of
Distributions that result from any Extended Interest Payment Period), Redemption
Price, Liquidation Distribution (as may be defined in the Declaration) or any
other sums payable under the terms of the Preferred Securities or the extension
of time for the performance of any other obligation under, arising out of, or in
connection with, the Preferred Securities (other than an extension of time for
payment of Distributions that result from any Extended Interest Payment Period);

         (c) any failure, omission, delay or lack of diligence on the part of
the Guarantee Trustee or the Holders to enforce, assert or exercise any right,
privilege, power or remedy conferred on the Guarantee Trustee or the Holders
pursuant to the terms hereof or of the Preferred Securities, respectively, or
any action on the part of the Issuer granting indulgence or extension of any
kind;

         (d) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale of any
collateral, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of
creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition or readjustment of debt of,
or other similar proceedings affecting, the Issuer or any of the assets of the
Issuer;

         (e) any invalidity of, or defect or deficiency in, the Preferred
Securities;

<PAGE>

         (f) the settlement or compromise of any obligation guaranteed hereby or
hereby incurred; or

         (g) any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a
legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor, it being the intent of
this Section 5.03 that the obligations of the Guarantor with respect to the
Guarantee Payments shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances. There shall be no obligation of the Guarantee Trustee or the
Holders to give notice to, or obtain consent of, the Guarantor with respect to
the happening of any of the foregoing.

         Section 5.04 Enforcement of Guarantee.

         The Guarantor and the Guarantee Trustee expressly acknowledge and agree
that

         (i) this Guarantee Agreement will be deposited with the Guarantee
Trustee to be held for the benefit of the Holders;

         (ii) the Guarantee Trustee has the right to enforce this Guarantee
Agreement on behalf of the Holders;

         (iii) Holders representing not less than a Majority of Outstanding
Preferred Securities have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Guarantee Trustee in
respect of this Guarantee Agreement or exercising any trust or other power
conferred upon the Guarantee Trustee under this Guarantee Agreement; and

         (iv) if the Guarantee Trustee fails to enforce this Guarantee Agreement
as provided in clauses (ii) and (iii) above, any Holder may institute a legal
proceeding directly against the Guarantor to enforce its rights under this
Guarantee Agreement, without first instituting a legal proceeding against the
Issuer, the Guarantee Trustee or any other Person. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the Guarantor has failed to make a Guarantee Payment, a Holder may
directly institute a proceeding against the Guarantor for enforcement of this
Guarantee Agreement for such payment without first instituting a legal
proceeding against the Issuer, the Guarantee Trustee or any other Person.

         Section 5.05 Guarantee of Payment.

         This Guarantee Agreement creates a guarantee of payment and not merely
of collection. This Guarantee Agreement will not be discharged except by payment
of the Guarantee Payments in full (without duplication of amounts theretofore
paid by the Issuer) or upon the distribution of the Debentures to the Holders as
provided in the Declaration.

         Section 5.06 Subrogation.

<PAGE>

         The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all (if any) rights of the Holders
against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid to the Holders by the
Guarantor under this Guarantee Agreement; provided, however, that the Guarantor
shall not (except to the extent required by mandatory provisions of law) be
entitled to enforce or exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of
subrogation or any indemnity, reimbursement or other agreement, in all cases as
a result of payment under this Guarantee Agreement, if, at the time of any such
payment, any amounts are due and unpaid under this Guarantee Agreement. If any
amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence,
the Guarantor agrees to hold such amount in trust for the Holders and to pay
over such amount to the Holders or to the Guarantee Trustee for remittance to
the Holders.

         Section 5.07 Independent Obligations.

         The Guarantor acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are
independent of the obligations of the Issuer with respect to the Preferred
Securities and that the Guarantor shall be liable as principal and as debtor
hereunder to make Guarantee Payments pursuant to the terms of this Guarantee
Agreement notwithstanding the occurrence of any event referred to in subsections
(a) through (g), inclusive, of Section 5.03 hereof.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                    LIMITATION OF TRANSACTIONS; SUBORDINATION

         Section 6.01 Limitation of Transactions.

         So long as any Preferred Securities remain outstanding, the Guarantor

         (i) will remain the sole direct or indirect owner of all of the
outstanding Common Securities and shall not cause or permit the Common
Securities to be transferred except to the extent such transfer is permitted
under Section [ ] of the Declaration; provided that any permitted successor of
the Guarantor under the Indenture may succeed to the Guarantor's direct or
indirect ownership of the Common Securities,

         (ii) will cause the holder of the Common Securities to satisfy the
requirements of Section [ ] of the Declaration and

         (iii) will use reasonable efforts to cause the Issuer to continue to be
treated as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes, except
in connection with a distribution of Debentures as provided in the Declaration.

         [Section 6.02 Subordination.

         This Guarantee Agreement will constitute an unsecured obligation of the
Guarantor and will rank (i) subordinate and junior in right of payment to all
other liabilities of the Guarantor

<PAGE>

and any guarantees of the Guarantor relating to such liabilities, except in each
case those made pari passu or subordinate by their terms, and (ii) senior to all
capital stock [(other than the most senior preferred stock issued from time to
time, if any, by the Guarantor, which preferred stock will rank pari passu with
this Guarantee Agreement)] and to any guarantee now or hereafter entered into by
the Guarantor in respect of any of its capital stock [(other than the most
senior preferred stock issued by the guarantor)] now or hereafter issued by the
Guarantor. The Guarantor's obligations under this Guarantee Agreement will rank
pari passu with respect to obligations under other securities (other than
capital stock) the Guarantor may issue from time to time and other guarantee
agreements which it may enter into from time to time to the extent that (i) such
agreements shall provide for comparable guarantees by the Guarantor of payment
on preferred securities issued by other trusts, partnerships or other entities
affiliated with the Guarantor that are financing vehicles of the Guarantor and
(ii) the debentures or other evidences of indebtedness of the Guarantor relating
to such preferred securities are junior subordinated, unsecured indebtedness of
the Guarantor.]

                                   ARTICLE VII
                                   TERMINATION

         Section 7.01 Termination.

         This Guarantee Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and
effect (i) upon full payment of the Redemption Price of all Preferred
Securities, (ii) upon the distribution of Debentures [, or any securities in to
which such Debentures are convertible,] to Holders and holders of Common
Securities in exchange for all of the Preferred Securities and Common Securities
or (iii) upon full payment of the amounts payable in accordance with the
Declaration upon liquidation of the Issuer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Guarantee Agreement will continue to be effective or will be reinstated, as the
case may be, if at any time any Holder must restore payment of any sums paid
with respect to the Preferred Securities or under this Guarantee Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

Indemnified Person in good faith in accordance with this Guarantee Agreement and
in a manner such Indemnified Person reasonably believed to be within the scope
of the authority conferred on such Indemnified Person by this Guarantee
Agreement or by law, except that an Indemnified Person shall be liable for any
such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Indemnified Person's
negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions.
<PAGE>
         (b) An Indemnified Person shall be fully protected in relying in good
faith upon the records of the Guarantor and upon such information, opinions,
reports or statements presented to the Guarantor by any Person as to matters the
Indemnified Person reasonably believes are within such other Person's
professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care
by or on behalf of the Guarantor, including information, opinions, reports or
statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits,
losses or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from
which Distributions to Holders might properly be paid.

         Section 8.02 Indemnification.

         To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Guarantor shall
indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any loss,
damage or claim incurred by such Indemnified Person by reason of any act or
omission performed or omitted by such Indemnified Person in good faith in
accordance with this Guarantee Agreement and in a manner such Indemnified Person
reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such
Indemnified Person by this Guarantee Agreement, except that no Indemnified
Person shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss, damage or
claim incurred by such Indemnified Person by reason of negligence or willful
misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions.

         Section 8.03 Survive Termination.

         The provisions of Sections 8.01 and 8.02 shall survive the termination

than a Majority of Outstanding Preferred Securities. The provisions of Section

without a meeting, of Holders shall apply to the giving of such approval.
