                                 TRUST AGREEMENT

         This Trust Agreement, dated as of May 9, 2001, (this "Trust
Agreement"), between Standard Management Corporation, an Indiana corporation
(the "Depositor") and Bankers Trust (Delaware), a Delaware banking corporation,
as trustee (the "Trustee"). The Depositor and the Trustee hereby agree as
follows:

         1.       The trust created hereby (the "Trust") shall be known as "SMAN
Capital Trust I" in which name the Trustee, or the Depositor to the extent
provided herein, may engage in the transactions contemplated hereby, make and
execute contracts, and sue and be sued.

         2.       The Depositor hereby assigns, transfers, conveys and sets over
to the Trustee the sum of One Hundred Dollars ($100.00). The Trustee hereby
acknowledges receipt of such amount in trust from the Depositor, which amount
shall constitute the initial trust estate. The Trustee hereby declares that it
will hold the trust estate in trust for the Depositor. It is the intention of
the parties hereto that the Trust created hereby constitute a business trust
under Chapter 38 of Title 12 of the Delaware Code, 12 Del. C. Section 3801, et
seq. (the "Business Trust Act"), and that this document constitute the governing
instrument of the Trust. The Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to
execute and file a certificate of trust with the Delaware Secretary of State in
accordance with the provisions of the Business Trust Act.

         3.       The Depositor and the Trustee will enter into an Amended and
Restated Trust Agreement, satisfactory to each such party and substantially in
the form included as an exhibit to the 1933 Act Registration Statement (as
defined below), to provide for the contemplated operation of the Trust created
hereby and the issuance of the Preferred Securities and Common Securities
referred to therein. Prior to the execution and delivery of such Amended and
Restated Trust Agreement, the Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation
hereunder or with respect to the trust estate, except as otherwise required by
applicable law or as may be necessary to obtain prior to such execution and
delivery of any licenses, consents or approvals required by applicable law or
otherwise.

         4.       The Depositor and the Trustee hereby authorize and direct the
Depositor, as the sponsor of the Trust, (i) to file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") and execute, in each case on behalf of
the Trust, (a) the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the "1933 Act
Registration Statement"), including any pre-effective or post-effective
amendments to the 1933 Act Registration Statement (and any registration
statement filed pursuant to Rule 462 promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended) relating to the registration under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, of the Preferred Securities of the Trust and possible certain
other securities; and (b) a Registration Statement on Form 8-A (the "1934 Act
Registration Statement") (including all pre-effective and post-effective
amendments thereto) relating to the registration of the Preferred Securities of
the Trust under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; (ii) to file
with the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") and execute on behalf of the Trust one
or more listing applications and all other applications, statements,
certificates, agreements, and other instruments as shall be necessary or
desirable to cause the Preferred Securities to be listed on the National Market
System of the

                                       1
<PAGE>   2

Nasdaq Stock Market; (iii) to file and execute on behalf of the Trust such
applications, reports, surety bonds, irrevocable consents, appointments of
attorney for service of process and other papers and documents as shall be
necessary or desirable to register the Preferred Securities under the securities
or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Depositor, on behalf of the Trust,
may deem necessary or desirable; and (iv) to execute on behalf of the Trust an
Underwriting Agreement relating to the Preferred Securities, among the Trust,
the Depositor and the several Underwriter(s) named therein, substantially in the
form included as an exhibit to the 1933 Act Registration Statement. In the event
that any filing referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above is required by
the rules and regulations of the Commission, Nasdaq or state securities or blue
sky laws, to be executed on behalf of the Trust by the Trustee, the Trustee, in
its capacity as a Trustee of the Trust, is hereby authorized and, to the extent
so required, directed to join in any such filing and to execute on behalf of the
Trust any and all of the foregoing, it being understood that Bankers Trust
(Delaware) in its capacity as a Trustee of the Trust shall not be required to
join in any such filing or execute on behalf of the Trust any such document
unless required by the rules and regulations of the Commission, Nasdaq, or state
securities or blue sky laws. In connection with the filings referred to above,
the Depositor hereby constitutes and appoints Ronald D. Hunter and Stephen M.
Coons and each of them, as its true and lawful attorneys-in-fact and agents,
with full power of substitution and resubstitution, for the Depositor or in the
Depositor's name, place and stead, in any and all capacities, to sign any and
all amendments (including post-effective amendments) to the 1933 Act
Registration Statement (and any registration statement filed pursuant to Rule
462 promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) and the 1934
Act Registration Statement and to file the same, with all exhibits thereto, and
other documents in connection therewith, with the Commission, Nasdaq and
administrators of the state securities or blue sky laws, granting unto said
attorneys-in-fact and agents full power and authority to do and perform each and
every act and thing requisite and necessary to be done in connection therewith,
as fully to all intents and purposes as the Depositor might or could do in
person, hereby ratifying and confirming all that said attorneys-in-fact and
agents or any of them, or their respective substitute or substitutes, shall do
or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

         5.       This Trust Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts.

         6.       The number of Trustees initially shall be one (1) and
thereafter the number of Trustees shall be such number as shall be fixed from
time to time by a written instrument signed by the Depositor which may increase
or decrease the number of Trustees; provided, however, that to the extent
required by the Business Trust Act, one Trustee shall either be a natural person
who is a resident of the State of Delaware or, if not a natural person, an
entity which has its principal place of business in the State of Delaware and
otherwise meets the requirements of applicable Delaware law. Subject to the
foregoing, the Depositor is entitled to appoint or remove without cause any
Trustee at any time. The Trustees may resign upon thirty (30) days' prior notice
to the Depositor.

         7.       This Trust Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard to conflict
of laws principles).

         (d)      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
Administrators and the Property Trustee are authorized and directed to conduct
the affairs of the Issuer Trust and to operate the Issuer Trust so that the
Issuer Trust will not be deemed to be an "investment company" required to be
registered under the Investment Company Act, and will not be taxable as a
corporation for the United States federal income tax purposes and so that the
Junior Subordinated Debentures will be treated as indebtedness of the Depositor
for United States federal income tax purposes. In this connection, the Property
Trustee, the Administrators, and the Holders of Common Securities are authorized
to take any action, not inconsistent with applicable law, the Certificate of
Trust, or this Trust Agreement, that the Property Trustee, the Administrators,
and Holders of Common Securities determine in their discretion to be necessary
or desirable for such purposes, as long as such action does not adversely affect
in any material respect the interests of the Holders of the Outstanding
Preferred Securities. In no event shall the Administrators or the Issuer
Trustees be liable to the Issuer Trust or the Holders for any failure to comply
with this section that results from a change in law or regulations or in the
interpretation thereof.

Section 2.8.      Assets of Trust.

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

Section 2.9.      Title to Trust Property.

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

                                   ARTICLE III

                                 PAYMENT ACCOUNT

Section 3.1.      Payment Account.

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

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

                                   ARTICLE IV

                            DISTRIBUTIONS; REDEMPTION

Section 4.1.      Distributions.

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

                  (i)      Distributions on the Trust Securities shall be
         cumulative and will accumulate whether or not there are funds of the
         Issuer Trust available for the payment of Distributions. Distributions
         shall accumulate from _______, 2001, and, except in the event (and to
         the extent) that the Depositor exercises its right to defer the payment
         of interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures pursuant to the
         Indenture, shall be payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30,
         September 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing on June 30, 2001.
         If any date on which a Distribution is otherwise payable on the Trust
         Securities is not a Business Day, then the payment of such Distribution
         shall be made on

                                       18
<PAGE>   25

         the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (without any interest or
         other payment in respect of any such delay), except that, if such
         Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, payment of such
         Distributions shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day,
         in either case with the same force and effect as if made on the date on
         which such payment was originally payable (each date on which
         distributions are payable in accordance with this Section 4.1(a), a
         "Distribution Date").

                  (ii)     The Trust Securities shall be entitled to
         Distributions payable at a rate of _____% per annum of the Liquidation
         Amount of the Trust Securities. The amount of Distributions payable for
         any period less than a full Distribution period shall be computed on
         the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and the actual
         number of days elapsed in a partial month in a period. Distributions
         payable for each full Distribution period will be computed by dividing
         the rate per annum by four. The amount of Distributions payable for any
         period shall include any Additional Amounts in respect of such period.

                  (iii)    So long as no Debenture Event of Default has occurred
         and is continuing, the Depositor has the right under the Indenture to
         defer the payment of interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures at
         any time and from time to time for a period not exceeding 20
         consecutive quarterly periods (an "Extension Period"), provided that no
         Extension Period may extend beyond _______, 2031. As a consequence of
         any such deferral, quarterly Distributions on the Trust Securities by
         the Issuer Trust will also be deferred (and the amount of Distributions
         to which Holders of the Trust Securities are entitled will accumulate
         additional Distributions thereon at the rate per annum of _____% per
         annum, compounded quarterly to the extent permitted by applicable law)
         from the relevant payment date for such Distributions, computed on the
         basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and the actual days
         elapsed in a partial month in such period. Additional Distributions
         payable for each full Distribution period will be computed by dividing
         the rate per annum by four. The term "Distributions" as used in Section
         4.1 shall include any such additional Distributions provided pursuant
         to this Section 4.1(a)(iii).

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

         (b)      Distributions on the Trust Securities with respect to a
Distribution Date shall be payable to the Holders thereof as they appear on the
Securities Register for the Trust Securities at the close of business on the
relevant record date, which shall be at the close of business on the 15th day of
March, June, September or December (whether or not a Business Day).

Section 4.2.      Redemption.

         (a)      On each Debenture Redemption Date and on the stated maturity
of the Junior Subordinated Debentures, the Issuer Trust will be required to
redeem a Like Amount of Trust Securities at the Redemption Price.

                                       19
<PAGE>   26

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

                  (i)      the Redemption Date and accrued interest, if any;

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

                  (iii)    the CUSIP number or CUSIP numbers of the Preferred
         Securities affected;

                  (iv)     if less than all the Outstanding Trust Securities are
         to be redeemed, the identification and the total Liquidation Amount of
         the particular Trust Securities to be redeemed;

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

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

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

         (c)      The Trust Securities redeemed on each Redemption Date shall be
redeemed at the Redemption Price with the applicable proceeds from the
contemporaneous redemption of Junior Subordinated Debentures. Redemptions of the
Trust Securities shall be made and the Redemption Price shall be payable on each
Redemption Date only to the extent that the Issuer Trust has funds then on hand
and available in the Payment Account for the payment of such Redemption Price.

         (d)      If the Property Trustee gives a notice of redemption in
respect of any Preferred Securities, then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on
the Redemption Date, subject to Section 4.2(c), the Property Trustee will, with
respect to Preferred Securities held in global form, irrevocably deposit with
the Clearing Agency for such Preferred Securities, to the extent

                                       20
<PAGE>   27

available therefor, funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and
will give such Clearing Agency irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the
Redemption Price to the Owners of the Preferred Securities. With respect to
Preferred Securities that are not held in global form, the Property Trustee,
subject to Section 4.2(c), will irrevocably deposit with the Paying Agent, to
the extent available therefor, funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption
Price and will give the Paying Agent irrevocable instructions and authority to
pay the Redemption Price to the Holders of the Preferred Securities upon
surrender of their Preferred Securities Certificates. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Distributions payable on or prior to the Redemption Date for any
Trust Securities called for redemption shall be payable to the Holders of such
Trust Securities as they appear on the Securities Register for the Trust
Securities on the relevant record dates for the related Distribution Dates. If
notice of redemption shall have been given and funds deposited as required,
then, upon the date of such deposit, all rights of Holders holding Trust
Securities so called for redemption will cease, except the right of such Holders
to receive the Redemption Price and any Distributions payable in respect of the
Trust Securities on or prior to the Redemption Date, but without interest, and
such Trust Securities will cease to be Outstanding. In the event that any date
on which any applicable Redemption Price is payable is not a Business Day, then
payment of the applicable Redemption Price payable on such date will be made on
the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or
other payment in respect of any such delay), except that, if such Business Day
is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the
immediately preceding Business Day, in each case, with the same force and effect
as if made on such date. In the event that payment of the Redemption Price in
respect of any Trust Securities called for redemption is improperly withheld or
refused and not paid either by the Issuer Trust or by the Depositor pursuant to
the Guarantee Agreement, Distributions on such Trust Securities will continue to
accumulate, as set forth in Section 4.1, from the Redemption Date originally
established by the Issuer Trust for such Trust Securities to the date such
applicable Redemption Price is actually paid, in which case the actual payment
date will be the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the
applicable Redemption Price.

         (e)      Subject to Section 4.3(a), if less than all the Outstanding
Trust Securities are to be redeemed on a Redemption Date, then the particular
Preferred Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days
prior to the Redemption Date by the Property Trustee from the Outstanding
Preferred Securities not previously called for redemption in such a manner as
the Property Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate.

Section 4.3.      Subordination of Common Securities.

         (a)      Payment of Distributions (including Additional Amounts, if
applicable) on, the Redemption Price of, and the Liquidation Distribution in
respect of, the Trust Securities, as applicable, shall be made, subject to
Section 4.2(e), pro rata among the Common Securities and the Preferred
Securities based on the Liquidation Amount of such Trust Securities; provided,
however, that if on any Distribution Date or Redemption Date any Event of
Default resulting from a Debenture Event of Default in Section 5.1(a) or 5.1(b)
of the Indenture shall have occurred and be continuing, no payment of any
Distribution (including any Additional Amounts, if applicable) on, or Redemption
Price of, or Liquidation Distribution in respect of, any Common Security, and no
other payment on account of the redemption, liquidation, or other acquisition of

                                       21
<PAGE>   28

Common Securities, shall be made unless payment in full in cash of all
accumulated and unpaid Distributions (including Additional Amounts, if
applicable) on all Outstanding Preferred Securities for all Distribution periods
terminating on or prior thereto, or, in the case of payment of the Redemption
Price, the full amount of such Redemption Price on all Outstanding Preferred
Securities then called for redemption, or in the case of payment of the
Liquidation Distribution the full amount of such Liquidation Distribution on all
Outstanding Preferred Securities, shall have been made or provided for, and all
funds immediately available to the Property Trustee shall first be applied to
the payment in full in cash of all Distributions (including any Additional
Amounts, if applicable) on, or the Redemption Price of, or Liquidation
Distribution in respect of Preferred Securities then due and payable. The
existence of an Event of Default does not entitle the Holders of Preferred
Securities to accelerate the maturity thereof.

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

Section 4.4.      Payment Procedures.

         Payments of Distributions (including any Additional Amounts, if
applicable) in respect of the Preferred Securities shall be made by check mailed
to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on
the Securities Register or, if the Preferred Securities are held by a Clearing
Agency, such Distributions shall be made to the Clearing Agency in immediately
available funds, which will credit the relevant accounts on the applicable
Distribution Dates. Payments of Distributions to Holders of $1,000,000 or more
in aggregate Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities may be made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds upon written request of such Holder of
Preferred Securities to the Securities Registrar not later than 15 calendar days
prior to the date on which the Distribution is payable. Payments in respect of
the Common Securities shall be made in such manner as shall be mutually agreed
between the Property Trustee and the Holder of the Common Securities.

Section 4.5.      Tax Returns and Reports.

         (a)      The Administrators shall prepare and file (or cause to be
prepared and filed), at the Depositor's expense, all United States federal,
state, and local tax and information returns and reports required to be filed by
or in respect of the Issuer Trust. In this regard, the Administrators shall (i)
prepare and file (or cause to be prepared and filed) all Internal Revenue
Service forms required to be filed in respect of the Issuer Trust in each
taxable year of the Issuer Trust and (ii) prepare and furnish (or cause to be
prepared and furnished) to each Holder all Internal Revenue Service forms
required to be provided by the Issuer Trust. The Administrators shall provide
the Depositor and the Property Trustee with a copy of all such returns and
reports

                                       22
<PAGE>   29

Administrators shall comply with United States federal withholding and backup
withholding tax laws and information reporting requirements with respect to any
payments to Holders under the Trust Securities.

         (b)      On or before December 15 of each year during which any
Preferred Securities are outstanding, the Administrators shall furnish to the
Paying Agent such information as may be reasonably requested by the Property
Trustee in order that the Property Trustee may prepare the information which it
is required to report for such year on Internal Revenue Service Forms 1096 and
1099 pursuant to Section 6049 of the Code. Such information shall include the
amount of original issue discount includible in income for each outstanding
Preferred Security during such year.

Section 4.6.      Payment of Taxes; Duties, Etc. of the Issuer Trust.

         Upon receipt under the Junior Subordinated Debentures of Additional
Sums, the Property Trustee, at the written direction of an Administrator or the
Depositor, shall promptly pay any taxes, duties or governmental charges of
whatsoever nature (other than withholding taxes) imposed on the Issuer Trust by
the United States or any other taxing authority.

Section 4.7.      Payments under Indenture or Pursuant to Direct Actions.

         Any amount payable hereunder to any Holder of Preferred Securities
shall be reduced by the amount of any corresponding payment such Holder (or any
Owner related thereto) has directly received pursuant to Section 5.8 of the
Indenture or Section 5.13 of this Trust Agreement.

Section 4.8.      Liability of the Holder of Common Securities.

         The Holder of Common Securities shall be liable for the debts and
obligations of the Issuer Trust as set forth in Section 6.7(c) of the Indenture
regarding allocation of expenses.

         (a)      The Trust Securities Certificates shall be executed on behalf

validly issued and entitled to the benefits of this Trust Agreement,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so
authorized prior to the delivery of such Trust Securities Certificates or did
not hold such offices at the date of delivery of such Trust Securities
Certificates. A transferee of a Trust Securities Certificate shall become a
Holder, and shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a
Holder hereunder, upon due registration of such Trust Securities Certificate in
such transferee's name pursuant to Section 5.5.

         (b)      Upon their original issuance, Preferred Securities
Certificates shall be issued in the form of one or more fully registered Global
Preferred Securities Certificates which will be deposited with or on behalf of
Cede as the Depositary's nominee and registered in the name of Cede as the

for the Preferred Securities in definitive form, a global security may not be
transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary
or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the
Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor of such
Depositary or a nominee of such successor.

and upon such delivery the Property Trustee shall authenticate such Trust
Securities Certificates and deliver such Trust Securities Certificates upon the
written order of the Issuer Trust, executed by an Administrator thereof, without
further trust action by the Issuer Trust, in authorized denominations, and
whereupon the Trust Securities evidenced by such Trust Securities Certificates
shall represent duly and validly issued undivided beneficial interests in the
assets of the Issuer Trust and entitled to the benefits of this Trust Agreement.

Section 5.4.      Global Preferred Security.

         (a)      Any Global Preferred Security issued under this Trust
Agreement shall be registered in the name of the Clearing Agency or its nominee
and delivered to it or its custodian therefor, and such Global Preferred
Security shall constitute a single Preferred Security for all purposes of this
Trust Agreement.

         (b)      Notwithstanding any other provision in this Trust Agreement, a

notice from the Depositary, (ii) the Depositor at its option advises the
Depositary in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through
the Clearing Agency, or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an
Event of Default.

         (c)      If a Preferred Security is to be exchanged in whole or in part
for a beneficial interest in a Global Preferred Security, then either (i) such
Global Preferred Security shall be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation
as provided in this Article V or (ii) the Liquidation Amount thereof shall be
reduced or increased by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so
exchanged or cancelled, or equal to the Liquidation Amount of such other
Preferred Security to be so exchanged for a beneficial interest therein, as the
case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the
Security Registrar, whereupon the Property Trustee, in accordance with the
Applicable Procedures, shall instruct the Clearing Agency or its authorized
representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon any such
surrender or adjustment of a Global Preferred Security by the Clearing Agency,
accompanied by registration instructions, the Property Trustee shall, subject to
Section 5.4(b) and as otherwise provided in this Article V, authenticate and
deliver and an Administrator shall execute any Preferred Securities issuable in
exchange for such Global Preferred Security (or any portion thereof) in
accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. The Property Trustee
shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may
conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, such
instructions.

         (d)      Every Preferred Security registered, executed, authenticated,
and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu
of, a Global Preferred Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this
Article V or Article IV or otherwise, shall be executed, authenticated and
delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Preferred Security, unless such
Global Preferred Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the
Clearing Agency for such Global Preferred Security or a nominee thereof.

         (e)      The Clearing Agency or its nominee, as the registered owner of
a Global Preferred Security, shall be considered the Holder of the Preferred
Securities represented by such Global Preferred Security for all purposes under
this Trust Agreement and the Preferred Securities, and owners of beneficial
interests in such Global Preferred Security shall hold such interests pursuant
to the Applicable Procedures and, except as otherwise provided herein, shall not
be entitled to receive physical delivery of any such Preferred Securities in
definitive form and shall not be considered the Holders thereof under this Trust
Agreement. Accordingly, any such Owner's beneficial interest in the Global
Preferred Security shall be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest
shall be effected only through, records maintained by the Clearing Agency or its
nominee. Neither the Property Trustee, the Securities Registrar nor the
Depositor shall have any liability in respect of any transfers effected by the
Clearing Agency.

         (f)      The rights of Owners of beneficial interests in a Global
Preferred Security shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and
shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such
Owners and the Clearing Agency.

Section 5.5.      Registration of Transfer and Exchange Generally; Certain
                  Transfers and Exchanges; Preferred Securities Certificates.

         (a)      The Property Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept at its
Corporate Trust Office a register or registers for the purpose of registering
Preferred Trust Securities Certificates and transfers and exchanges of Preferred
Securities Certificates in which the registrar and transfer agent with respect
to the Preferred Securities (the "Securities Registrar"), subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, shall provide for the registration
of Preferred Securities Certificates and Common Securities Certificates (subject
to Section 5.11 in the case of Common Securities Certificates) and registration
of transfers and exchanges of Preferred Securities Certificates as herein
provided. Such register is herein sometimes referred to as the "Securities
Register." The Property Trustee is hereby appointed "Securities Registrar" for
the purpose of registering Preferred Securities and transfers of Preferred
Securities as herein provided.

         Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Preferred Security
at the offices or agencies of the Property Trustee designated for that purpose,
an Administrator shall execute and the Property Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more
new Preferred Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations of
like tenor and aggregate Liquidation Amount and bearing such legends as may be
required by this Trust Agreement.

         At the option of the Holder, Preferred Securities may be exchanged for
other Preferred Securities of any authorized denominations, of like tenor and
aggregate Liquidation Amount and bearing such legends as may be required by this
Trust Agreement, upon surrender of the Preferred Securities to be exchanged at
such office or agency. Whenever any Preferred Securities are so surrendered for
exchange, an Administrator shall execute and the Property Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver the Preferred Securities that the Holder making the
exchange is entitled to receive.

         All Preferred Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange of
Preferred Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer Trust,
evidencing the same interest, and entitled to the same benefits under this Trust
Agreement, as the Preferred Securities surrendered upon such transfer or
exchange.

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

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

                                       26
<PAGE>   33

         Neither the Issuer Trust nor the Property Trustee shall be required,
pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (i) to issue, register the transfer
of, or exchange any Preferred Security during a period beginning at the opening
of business 15 days before the day of selection for redemption of Preferred
Securities pursuant to Article IV and ending at the close of business on the day
of mailing of the notice of redemption, or (ii) to register the transfer of or
exchange any Preferred Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part,
except, in the case of any such Preferred Security to be redeemed in part, any
portion thereof not to be redeemed.

         (b)      Certain Transfers and Exchanges. Trust Securities may only be
transferred, in whole or in part, in accordance with the terms and conditions
set forth in this Trust Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, any transfer or purported transfer of any Trust Security not made in
accordance with this Trust Agreement shall be null and void.

                  (i)      Non-Global Security to Non-Global Security. A Trust
         Security that is not a Global Preferred Security may be transferred, in
         whole or in part, to a Person who takes delivery in the form of another
         Trust Security that is not a Global Preferred Security as provided in
         Section 5.5(a).

                  (ii)     Free Transferability. Subject to this Section 5.5,
         Preferred Securities shall be freely transferable.

                  (iii)    Exchanges Between Global Preferred Security and
         Non-Global Preferred Security. A beneficial interest in a Global
         Preferred Security may be exchanged for a Preferred Security that is
         not a Global Preferred Security as provided in Section 5.4.

Section 5.6.      Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Securities
                  Certificates.

         If (a) any mutilated Trust Securities Certificate shall be surrendered
to the Securities Registrar, or if the Securities Registrar shall receive
evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss, or theft of any Trust
Securities Certificate and (b) there shall be delivered to the Securities
Registrar and the Administrators such security or indemnity as may be required
by them to save each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such
Trust Securities Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser
or a protected purchaser, the Administrators, or any one of them, on behalf of
the Issuer Trust shall execute and make available for delivery, and the Property
Trustee shall authenticate, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost, or stolen Trust Securities Certificate, a new Trust Securities
Certificate of like class, tenor and denomination. In connection with the
issuance of any new Trust Securities Certificate under this Section, the
Administrators or the Securities Registrar may require the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection therewith. Any duplicate Trust Securities Certificate issued pursuant
to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of an undivided beneficial
interest in the assets of the Issuer Trust corresponding to that evidenced by
the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Securities Certificate, as if originally
issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Securities
Certificate shall be found at any time.

Section 5.7.      Persons Deemed Holders.

         The Issuer Trustees, the Administrators, the Securities Registrar, or
the Depositor shall treat the Person in whose name any Trust Securities are
registered in the Securities Register as the owner of such Trust Securities for
the purpose of receiving Distributions and for all other purposes whatsoever,
and none of the Issuer Trustees, the Administrators, the Securities Registrar
nor the Depositor shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

Section 5.8.      Access to List of Holders' Names and Addresses.

         Each Holder and each Owner shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold
the Depositor, the Property Trustee, or the Administrators accountable by reason
of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which
such information was derived.

Section 5.9.      Maintenance of Office or Agency.

         The Property Trustee shall designate, with the consent of the
Administrators, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, an office or
offices or agency or agencies where Preferred Securities Certificates may be
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and
demands to or upon the Issuer Trustees in respect of the Trust Securities
Certificates may be served. The Property Trustee initially designates its
Corporate Trust Office for such purposes. The Property Trustee shall give prompt
written notice to the Depositor, the Administrators and the Holders of any
change in the location of the Securities Register or any such office or agency.

Section 5.10.     Appointment of Paying Agent.

         The Paying Agent shall make Distributions to Holders from the Payment
Account and shall report the amounts of such Distributions to the Property
Trustee and the Administrators. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power
to withdraw funds from the Payment Account solely for the purpose of making the
Distributions referred to above. The Property Trustee may revoke such power and
remove any Paying Agent in its sole discretion. The Paying Agent shall initially
be the Property Trustee. Any Person acting as Paying Agent shall be permitted to
resign as Paying Agent upon 30 days' written notice to the Administrators and
the Property Trustee. In the event that the Property Trustee shall no longer be
the Paying Agent or a successor Paying Agent shall resign or its authority to
act be revoked, the Property Trustee shall appoint a successor (which shall be a
bank or trust company) that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrators to
act as Paying Agent. Such successor Paying Agent appointed by the Property
Trustee, or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Administrators, shall
execute and deliver to the Issuer Trustees an instrument in which such successor
Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Issuer Trustees
that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent
will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Holders in trust for
the benefit of the Holders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to
such Holders. The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Property
Trustee and upon removal of a Paying Agent such Paying Agent shall also return
all funds in its possession to the Property Trustee. The provisions of Sections
8.1, 8.3 and 8.6 herein shall apply to the Bank also

                                       28
<PAGE>   35

in its role as Paying Agent, for so long as the Bank shall act as Paying Agent
and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent appointed hereunder.
Any reference in this Trust Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any
co-paying agent chosen by the Property Trustee unless the context requires
otherwise.

Section 5.11.     Ownership of Common Securities by Depositor.

         On the Closing Date, and on the Option Closing Date if applicable, the
Depositor shall acquire and retain beneficial and record ownership of the Common
Securities. Neither the Depositor nor any successor Holder of the Common
Securities may transfer less than all of the Common Securities, and the
Depositor or any successor Holder may transfer the Common Securities only (a) in
connection with a consolidation or merger of the Depositor into another
corporation or any conveyance, transfer or lease by the Depositor of its
properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, pursuant to
Section 8.1 of the Indenture, or (b) a transfer to an Affiliate of the Depositor
in compliance with applicable law (including the Securities Act and applicable
state securities and blue sky laws). To the fullest extent permitted by law, any
other attempted transfer of the Common Securities shall be void. The
Administrators shall cause each Common Securities Certificate issued to the
Depositor to contain a legend stating "THIS CERTIFICATE IS NOT TRANSFERABLE
EXCEPT TO A SUCCESSOR IN INTEREST TO THE DEPOSITOR OR AN AFFILIATE OF THE
DEPOSITOR IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW AND SECTION 5.11 OF THE TRUST
AGREEMENT."

Section 5.12.     Notices to Clearing Agency.

         To the extent that a notice or other communication to the Holders is
required under this Trust Agreement, for so long as Preferred Securities are
represented by a Global Preferred Securities Certificate, the Administrators and
the Property Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified
herein to be given to the Clearing Agency, and shall have no obligations to the
Owners.

Section 5.13.     Rights of Holders.

         (a)      The legal title to all Trust Property shall be vested at all
times in the Property Trustee and shall be held and administered by the Property
Trustee (in its capacity as such) in accordance with Section 2.9, and the
Holders shall not have any right or title therein other than the undivided
beneficial interest in the assets of the Issuer Trust conferred by their Trust
Securities and they shall have no right to call for any partition or division of
property, profits, or rights of the Issuer Trust except as described below. The
Trust Securities shall be personal property giving only the rights specifically
set forth therein and in this Trust Agreement. The Trust Securities shall have
no preemptive or similar rights and when issued and delivered to Holders against
payment of the purchase price therefor will be validly issued, fully paid and,
subject to Section 4.8 hereof, nonassessable undivided beneficial interests in
the Trust Property. Subject to Section 4.8 hereof, the Holders of the Trust
Securities, in their capacities as such, shall be entitled to the same
limitation of personal liability extended to stockholders of private
corporations for profit organized under the General Corporation Law of the State
of Delaware.

                                       29

         (b)      For so long as any Preferred Securities remain Outstanding,
if, upon a Debenture Event of Default, the Debenture Trustee fails, or the
holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Junior
Subordinated Debentures fail, to declare the principal of all of the Junior
Subordinated Debentures to be immediately due and payable, the Holders of at
least 25% in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities then Outstanding
shall have such right to make such declaration by a notice in writing to the
Property Trustee, the Depositor and the Debenture Trustee.

         At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to
the Junior Subordinated Debentures has been made and before a judgment or decree
for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Debenture Trustee as
provided in the Indenture, the Holders of a Majority in Liquidation Amount of
the Preferred Securities, by written notice to the Property Trustee, the
Depositor, and the Debenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and
its consequences if:

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

                           (A)      all overdue installments of interest on all
                  of the Junior Subordinated Debentures,

                           (B)      any accrued Additional Interest on all of
                  the Junior Subordinated Debentures,

                           (C)      the principal of (and premium, if any, on)
                  any Junior Subordinated Debentures which have become due
                  otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and
                  interest and Additional Interest thereon at the rate borne by
                  the Junior Subordinated Debentures, and

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

                  (ii)     all Events of Default with respect to the Junior
         Subordinated Debentures, other than the non-payment of the principal of
         the Junior Subordinated Debentures which has become due solely by such
         acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13 of
         the Indenture.

         The Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the
Preferred Securities may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Preferred
Securities, waive any past default under the Indenture, except a default in the
payment of principal or interest (unless such default has been cured and a sum
sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and principal due
otherwise than by acceleration has been deposited with the Debenture Trustee) or
a default in respect of a covenant or provision which under the Indenture cannot
be modified or amended without the

                                       30
<PAGE>   37

consent of the holder of each outstanding Junior Subordinated Debentures
affected thereby. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or
impair any right consequent thereon.

         Upon receipt by the Property Trustee of written notice declaring such
an acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof, by Holders of the
Preferred Securities all or part of which is represented by Global Preferred
Securities, a record date shall be established for determining Holders of
Outstanding Preferred Securities entitled to join in such notice, which record
date shall be at the close of business on the day the Property Trustee receives
such notice. The Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies,
and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such notice, whether or not
such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, that, unless such
declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be,
shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having joined
in such notice prior to the day which is 90 days after such record date, such
notice of declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case
may be, shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be canceled
and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder, or a
proxy of a Holder, from giving, after expiration of such 90-day period, a new
written notice of declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment
thereof, as the case may be, that is identical to a written notice which has
been canceled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event
a new record date shall be established pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 5.13(b).

         (c)      For so long as any Preferred Securities remain Outstanding, to
the fullest extent permitted by law and subject to the terms of this Trust
Agreement and the Indenture, upon a Debenture Event of Default specified in
Section 5.1(a) or 5.1(b) of the Indenture, any Holder of Preferred Securities
shall have the right to institute a proceeding directly against the Depositor,
pursuant to Section 5.8 of the Indenture, for enforcement of payment to such
Holder of the principal amount of or interest on Junior Subordinated Debentures
having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate Liquidation Amount
of the Preferred Securities of such Holder (a "Direct Action"). Except as set
forth in Sections 5.13(b) and 5.13(c) of this Trust Agreement, the Holders of
Preferred Securities shall have no right to exercise directly any right or
remedy available to the holders of, or in respect of, the Junior Subordinated
Debentures.

                        ACTS OF HOLDERS; MEETINGS; VOTING

Section 6.1.      Limitations on Holder's Voting Rights.

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

                                       31
<PAGE>   38

         (b)      So long as any Junior Subordinated Debentures are held by the
Property Trustee on behalf of the Issuer Trust, the Property Trustee shall not
(i) direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Property Trustee, or executing any trust or power
conferred on the Debenture Trustee with respect to such Junior Subordinated
Debentures, (ii) waive any past default that may be waived under Section 5.13 of
the Indenture, (iii) exercise any right to rescind or annul a declaration that
the principal of all the Junior Subordinated Debentures shall be due and
payable, or (iv) consent to any amendment, modification, or termination of the
Indenture or the Junior Subordinated Debentures, where such consent shall be
required, without, in each case, obtaining the prior approval of the Holders of
at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities; provided,
however, that where a consent under the Indenture would require the consent of
each holder of Junior Subordinated Debentures affected thereby, no such consent
shall be given by the Property Trustee without the prior written consent of each
Holder of Preferred Securities. The Property Trustee shall not revoke any action
previously authorized or approved by a vote of the Holders of Preferred
Securities, except by a subsequent vote of the Holders of Preferred Securities.
The Property Trustee shall notify all Holders of the Preferred Securities of any
notice of default received with respect to the Junior Subordinated Debentures.
In addition to obtaining the foregoing approvals of the Holders of the Preferred
Securities, prior to taking any of the foregoing actions, the Property Trustee
shall, at the expense of the Depositor, obtain an Opinion of Counsel experienced
in such matters to the effect that such action will not cause the Issuer Trust
to be taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes.

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

Section 6.2.      Notice of Meetings.

         Notice of all meetings of the Holders, stating the time, place, and
purpose of the meeting, shall be given by the Property Trustee pursuant to
Section 10.8 to each Holder of record, at his registered address, at least 15
days and not more than 90 days before the meeting. At any such meeting, any
business properly before the meeting may be so considered whether or not stated
in the notice of the meeting. Any adjourned meeting may be held as adjourned
without further notice.

<PAGE>   39

Section 6.3.      Meetings of Holders.

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

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

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

Section 6.4.      Voting Rights.

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

Section 6.5.      Proxies, etc.

         At any meeting of Holders, any Holder entitled to vote thereat may vote
by proxy, provided that no proxy shall be voted at any meeting unless it shall
have been placed on file with the Property Trustee, or with such other officer
or agent of the Issuer Trust as the Property Trustee may direct, for
verification prior to the time at which such vote shall be taken. Pursuant to a
resolution of the Property Trustee, proxies may be solicited in the name of the
Property Trustee or one or more officers of the Property Trustee. Only Holders
of record shall be entitled to vote. When Trust Securities are held jointly by
several persons, any one of them may vote at any meeting in person or by proxy
in respect of such Trust Securities, but if more than one of them shall be
present at such meeting in person or by proxy, and such joint owners or their
proxies so present disagree as to any vote to be cast, such vote shall not be
received in respect of such Trust Securities. A proxy purporting to be executed
by or on behalf of a Holder shall be deemed valid unless challenged at or prior
to its exercise, and the burden of proving invalidity shall rest on the
challenger. No proxy shall be valid more than three years after its date of
execution.

Section 6.6.      Holder Action by Written Consent.

         Any action which may be taken by Holders at a meeting may be taken
without a meeting if Holders holding at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount
of all Trust Securities entitled to

                                       33
<PAGE>   40

vote in respect of such action (or such larger proportion thereof as shall be
required by any other provision of this Trust Agreement) shall consent to the
action in writing.

Section 6.7.      Record Date for Voting and Other Purposes.

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

Section 6.8.      Acts of Holders.

         (a)      Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver, or other action provided or permitted by this Trust Agreement
to be given, made, or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one
or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in
person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, such action shall become effective when such
instrument or instruments are delivered to the Property Trustee. Such instrument
or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are
herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Holders signing such instrument
or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing
appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Trust
Agreement and (subject to Section 8.1) conclusive in favor of the Issuer
Trustees, if made in the manner provided in this Section 6.8.

         (b)      The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such
execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by
law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing
such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such
execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual
capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof
of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or
writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved
in any other manner which any Issuer Trustee or Administrator receiving the same
deems sufficient.

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

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

<PAGE>   41

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

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

Section 6.9.      Inspection of Records.

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

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                     THE ISSUER TRUSTEES; THE ADMINISTRATORS

Section 8.1.      Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

         (a)      The duties and responsibilities of the Issuer Trustees and the
Administrators shall be as provided by this Trust Agreement and, in the case of
the Property Trustee, by the Trust Indenture Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
no provision of this Trust Agreement shall require the Issuer Trustees or the
Administrators to expend or risk their own funds or otherwise incur any
financial liability in the performance of any of their duties hereunder, or in
the exercise of any of their rights or powers, if repayment of such funds or
adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to
it or them. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of
this Trust Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or
affording protection to the Issuer Trustees or the Administrators shall be
subject to the provisions of this Section. Nothing in this Trust Agreement shall
be construed to release an Administrator or the Issuer Trustees from liability
for his or its own negligent action, his or its own negligent failure to act, or
his or its own willful misconduct. To the extent that, at law or in equity, an
Issuer Trustee or Administrator has duties and liabilities relating to the
Issuer Trust or to the Holders, such Issuer Trustee or Administrator shall not
be liable to the Issuer Trust or to any Holder for such Issuer Trustee's or
Administrator's good faith reliance on the provisions of this Trust Agreement.
The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the
duties and liabilities of the Issuer Trustees and Administrators otherwise
existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Depositor and the Holders to
replace such other duties and liabilities of the Issuer Trustees and
Administrators.

         (b)      All payments made by the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent in
respect of the Trust Securities shall be made only from the revenue and proceeds
from the Trust Property and only to the extent that there shall be sufficient
revenue or proceeds from the Trust Property to enable the Property Trustee or a
Paying Agent to make payments in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Holder,
by his or its acceptance of a Trust Security, agrees that he or it will look
solely to the revenue and proceeds from the Trust Property to the extent legally
available for distribution to it or him as herein provided and that neither the
Issuer Trustees nor the Administrators are personally liable to it or him for
any amount distributable in respect of any Trust Security or for any other
liability in respect of any Trust Security. This Section 8.1(b) does not limit
the liability of the Issuer Trustees expressly set forth elsewhere in this Trust
Agreement or, in the case of the Property Trustee, in the Trust Indenture Act.

         (c)      The Property Trustee, before the occurrence of any Event of
Default and after the curing of all Events of Default that may have occurred,
shall undertake to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in
this Trust Agreement (including pursuant to Section 10.10), and no implied
covenants shall be read into this Trust Agreement against the Property Trustee.
If an Event of Default has occurred (that has not been cured or waived pursuant
to Section 5.13 of the Indenture), the Property Trustee shall enforce this Trust
Agreement for the benefit of the Holders and shall exercise such of the rights
and powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement,

                                       37
<PAGE>   44

and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise thereof, as a prudent
person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or
her own affairs.

         (d)      No provision of this Trust Agreement shall be construed to
relieve the Property Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its
own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

                  (i)      prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default and
         after the curing or waiving of all such Events of Default that may have
         occurred:

                           (A)      the duties and obligations of the Property
                  Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions
                  of this Trust Agreement (including pursuant to Section 10.10),
                  and the Property Trustee shall not be liable except for the
                  performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically
                  set forth in this Trust Agreement (including pursuant to
                  Section 10.10); and

                           (B)      in the absence of bad faith on the part of
                  the Property Trustee, the Property 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 Property Trustee and conforming to
                  the requirements of this Trust Agreement; but in the case of
                  any such certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof
                  or of the Trust Indenture Act are specifically required to be
                  furnished to the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee shall
                  be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or
                  not they conform to the requirements of this Trust Agreement;

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

                  (iii)    the Property Trustee shall not be liable with respect
         to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
         accordance with the direction of the Holders of at least a Majority in
         Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities relating to the time,
         method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available
         to the Property Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred
         upon the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement;

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

                  (v)      the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any
         interest on any money received by it except as it may otherwise agree
         with the Depositor; and money held by the Property Trustee need not be
         segregated from other funds held by it except in relation to the

                                       38
<PAGE>   45

         Payment Account maintained by the Property Trustee pursuant to Section
         3.1 and except to the extent otherwise required by law;

                  (vi)     the Property Trustee shall not be responsible for
         monitoring the compliance by the Administrators or the Depositor with
         their respective duties under this Trust Agreement, nor shall the
         Property Trustee be liable for the default or misconduct of any other
         Issuer Trustee, the Administrators or the Depositor; and

                  (vii)    no provision of this Trust Agreement shall require
         the Property 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 repayment of such
         funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it under the terms of
         this Trust Agreement or adequate indemnity against such risk or
         liability is not reasonably assured to it.

         (e)      The Administrators shall not be responsible for monitoring the
compliance by the Issuer Trustees or the Depositor with their respective duties
under this Trust Agreement, nor shall either Administrator be liable for the
default or misconduct of any other Administrator, the Issuer Trustees or the
Depositor.

Section 8.2.      Certain Notices.

         (a)      Within five Business Days after the occurrence of any Event of
Default actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Property Trustee, the
Property Trustee shall transmit, in the manner and to the extent provided in
Section 10.8, notice of such Event of Default to the Holders and the
Administrators, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived.

         (b)      Within five Business Days after the receipt of notice of the
Depositor's exercise of its right to defer the payment of interest on the Junior
Subordinated Debentures pursuant to the Indenture, the Property Trustee shall
transmit, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 10.8, notice of
such exercise to the Holders and the Administrators, unless such exercise shall
have been revoked.

         (c)      In the event the Property Trustee receives notice of the
Depositor's exercise of its right to shorten the stated maturity of the Junior
Subordinated Debentures as provided in Section 3.16 of the Indenture, the
Property Trustee shall give notice of such shortening of the stated maturity to
the Holders at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the effective date
thereof.

Section 8.3       Certain Rights of Property Trustee.

         Subject to the provisions of Section 8.1:

         (a)      the Property Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in

                                       39

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

         (e)      the Property Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise
any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement at the request
or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Trust Agreement, unless such
Holders shall have offered to the Property Trustee security or indemnity
satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be
incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; provided that,
nothing contained in this Section 8.3(e) shall be taken to relieve the Property
Trustee, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, of its obligation to
exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement;

         (f)      the Property Trustee shall not be bound to make any
investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate,

         (h)      whenever in the administration of this Trust Agreement the
Property Trustee shall deem it desirable to receive instructions with respect to
enforcing any remedy or right or taking any other action hereunder, the Property
Trustee (i) may request instructions from the Holders (which instructions may
only be given by the Holders of the same proportion in Liquidation Amount of the
Trust Securities as would be entitled to direct the Property Trustee under the
terms of the Trust Securities in respect of such remedy, right or action), (ii)
may refrain from

                                       40

<PAGE>   47
enforcing such remedy or right or taking such other action until such

Agreement, the Property Trustee shall not be under any obligation to take any

any jurisdiction in which it shall be illegal, or in which the Property Trustee
shall be unqualified or incompetent in accordance with applicable law, to
perform any such act or acts, or to exercise any such right, power, duty or
obligation. No permissive power or authority available to any Issuer Trustee or
Administrator shall be construed to be a duty.

Section 8.4.      Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.

         The recitals contained herein and in the Trust Securities Certificates
shall be taken as the statements of the Issuer Trust, and the Issuer Trustees

         Except as provided in the definition of the term "Outstanding" in
Article I, the Administrators, any Issuer Trustee or any other agent of any
Issuer Trustee or the Issuer Trust, in its individual or any other capacity, may
become the owner or pledgee of Trust Securities and, subject to Sections 8.8 and
8.13, may otherwise deal with the Issuer Trust with the same rights it would
have if it were not an Administrator, Issuer Trustee or such other agent.

Section 8.6.      Compensation; Indemnity; Fees.

         The Depositor agrees:

         (a)      to pay to the Issuer Trustees from time to time reasonable
compensation for all services rendered by them hereunder (which compensation
shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a
trustee of an express trust);

         (b)      to reimburse the Issuer Trustees and the Administrators upon
request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements, and advances incurred or
made by the Issuer Trustees in accordance with any provision of this Trust
Agreement (including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of
its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement, or advance as

misconduct; and

                                       41
<PAGE>   48

         (c)      to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to
indemnify and hold harmless (i) each Issuer Trustee, (ii) each Administrator,
(iii) any Affiliate of any Issuer Trustee, (iv) any officer, director,
shareholder, employee, representative or agent of any Issuer Trustee, and (v)
any employee or agent of the Issuer Trust, (referred to herein as an
"Indemnified Person") from and against any loss, damage, liability, tax
(excluding income taxes, other than taxes referred to in Sections 4.5 and 4.6
hereunder), penalty, expense or claim of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred
by such Indemnified Person arising out of or in connection with the creation,
operation, or dissolution of the Issuer Trust or any act or omission performed
or omitted by such Indemnified Person in good faith on behalf of the Issuer
Trust and in a manner such Indemnified Person reasonably believed to be within
the scope of authority conferred on such Indemnified Person by this Trust
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 bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts
or omissions. The indemnification provided to an Indemnified Party in this Trust
Agreement shall not be exclusive and nothing in this Trust Agreement shall limit
any indemnification for actions taken in connection with this Trust Agreement or
otherwise which may be available or provided to such Indemnified Party under
other sources.

         The provisions of this Section 8.6 shall survive the termination of
this Trust Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Indemnified Persons.

         No Issuer Trustee may claim any lien or charge on any Trust Property as
a result of any amount due pursuant to this Section 8.6.

         The Depositor, any Administrator and any Issuer Trustee may engage in
or possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature or description,
independently or with others, similar or dissimilar to the business of the
Issuer Trust, and the Issuer Trust and the Holders of Trust Securities shall
have no rights by virtue of this Trust Agreement in and to such independent
ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such
venture, even if competitive with the business of the Issuer Trust, shall not be
deemed wrongful or improper. Neither the Depositor, any Administrator, nor any
Issuer Trustee shall be obligated to present any particular investment or other
opportunity to the Issuer Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that,
if presented to the Issuer Trust, could be taken by the Issuer Trust, and the
Depositor, any Administrator or any Issuer Trustee shall have the right to take
for its own account (individually or as a partner or fiduciary) or to recommend
to others any such particular investment or other opportunity. Any Issuer
Trustee may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with
the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor, or may act as depository for,
trustee or agent for, or act on any committee or body of holders of, securities
or other obligations of the Depositor or its Affiliates.

Section  8.7.     Corporate Property Trustee Required; Eligibility of Trustees
and Administrators.

         (a)      There shall at all times be a Property Trustee hereunder with
respect to the Trust Securities. The Property Trustee shall be a Person that is
a national or state chartered bank and eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture
Act to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least
annually,

                                       42
<PAGE>   49

pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and
surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as
set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time
the Property Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this
Article VIII. At the time of appointment, the Property Trustee must have
securities rated in one of the three highest rating categories by a nationally
recognized statistical rating organization.

         (b)      There shall at all times be one or more Administrators
hereunder. Each Administrator shall be either a natural person who is at least
21 years of age or a legal entity that shall act through one or more persons
authorized to bind that entity. An employee, officer, or Affiliate of the

requirements of the Trust Indenture Act or of any jurisdiction in which any part
of the Trust Property may at the time be located, the Property Trustee shall
have power to appoint, and upon the written request of the Property Trustee, the
Depositor and the Administrators shall for such purpose join with the Property
Trustee in the execution, delivery, and performance of all instruments and
agreements necessary or proper to appoint, one or more Persons approved by the
Property Trustee either to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Property Trustee,

United States or (ii) a legal entity with its principal place of business in the
United States that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind such

         (b)      Should any written instrument from the Depositor be required
by any co-trustee or separate trustee so appointed for more fully confirming to
such co-trustee or separate trustee such property, title, right, or power, any
and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and
delivered by the Depositor.

         (c)      Every co-trustee or separate trustee shall, to the extent
permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following
terms, namely:

                  (i)      The Trust Securities shall be executed by one or more
Administrators, and the Trust Securities shall be executed and delivered and all
rights, powers, duties, and obligations hereunder in respect of the custody of
securities, cash and other personal property held by, or required to be
deposited or pledged with, the Property Trustees specified hereunder, shall be
exercised, solely by the Property Trustee and not by such co-trustee or separate
trustee.

                  (ii)     The rights, powers, duties, and obligations hereby
conferred or imposed upon the Property Trustee in respect of any property
covered by such appointment shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or
performed by the Property Trustee and such co-trustee or separate trustee

separate trustee, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in
which any particular act is to be performed, the Property Trustee shall be
incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights,
powers, duties, and obligations shall be exercised and performed by such
co-trustee or separate trustee.

                  (iii)    The Property Trustee at any time, by an instrument in
writing executed by it, with the written concurrence of the Depositor, may
accept the resignation of or remove any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed
under this Section, and, in case a Debenture Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, the Property Trustee shall have power to accept the resignation
of, or remove, any such co-trustee or separate trustee without the concurrence
of the Depositor. Upon the written request of the Property Trustee, the
Depositor shall join with the Property Trustee in the execution, delivery and
performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to effectuate
such resignation or removal. A successor to any co-trustee or separate trustee
so resigned or removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section
8.9.

shall be deemed to have been delivered to each such co-trustee and separate
trustee.

Section 8.10.     Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

         (a)      No resignation or removal of any Issuer Trustee (the "Relevant
Trustee") and no appointment of a successor Issuer Trustee pursuant to this
Article VIII shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the
successor Issuer Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of
Section 8.11.

         (b)      Subject to Section 8.10(a), a Relevant Trustee may resign at
any time by giving written notice thereof to the Holders. The Administrators
shall appoint a successor by requesting from at least three Persons meeting the
eligibility requirements its expenses and charges to serve as the successor
Issuer Trustee on a form provided by the Administrators, and selecting the
Person who agrees to the lowest expenses and charges, subject to the prior
consent of the Depositor which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If
the instrument of acceptance by the successor Issuer Trustee required by Section
8.11 shall not have been delivered to the Relevant Trustee within 60 days after
the giving of such notice of resignation, the Relevant Trustee may petition, at
the expense of the Issuer Trust, any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Issuer Trustee.

         (c)      The Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee may be removed at
any time by Act of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of
the Preferred Securities, delivered to the Relevant Trustee (in its individual
capacity and on behalf of the Issuer Trust) (i) for cause, or (ii) if a
Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at any time.

         (d)      If a resigning Relevant Trustee shall fail to appoint a
successor, or if a Relevant Trustee shall be removed or become incapable of
acting as Issuer Trustee, or if any vacancy shall occur in the office of any
Issuer Trustee for any cause, the Holders of the Preferred Securities, by Act of
the Holders of record of not less than 25% aggregate Liquidation Amount of the
Preferred Securities then Outstanding delivered to such Relevant Trustee, shall
promptly appoint a successor Issuer Trustee or Trustees, and such successor
Issuer Trustee shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 8.11. If
no successor Issuer Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Holders of the
Preferred Securities and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section
8.11, any Holder, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, or any
other Issuer Trustee, may petition any court in the State of Delaware for the
appointment of a successor Issuer Trustee.

         (e)      The Property Trustee shall give notice of each resignation and
each removal of a Relevant Trustee and each appointment of a successor Issuer
Trustee to all Holders in the manner provided in Section 10.8 and shall give
notice to the Depositor and to the Administrators. Each notice shall include the
name of the Relevant Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office if it
is the Property Trustee.

         (f)      Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this
Trust Agreement, in the event any Delaware Trustee who is a natural person dies
or becomes, in the opinion of the Holders of the Common Securities, incompetent
or incapacitated, the vacancy created by such death, incompetence or incapacity
may be filled by the Property Trustee following the

                                       45
<PAGE>   52

procedures regarding expenses and charges set forth above (with the successor in
each case being a Person who satisfies the eligibility requirement for Delaware
Trustee set forth in Section 8.7).

Section 8.11.     Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

         (a)      In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Issuer
Trustee, the retiring Relevant Trustee and each such successor Issuer Trustee
with respect to the Trust Securities shall execute, acknowledge and deliver an
instrument wherein each successor Issuer Trustee shall accept such appointment
and which shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to
transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Issuer Trustee all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Relevant Trustee with respect
to the Trust Securities and the Issuer Trust, and upon the execution and
delivery of such instrument the resignation or removal of the retiring Relevant
Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such
successor Issuer Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the Relevant
Trustee; but, on request of the Issuer Trust or any successor Issuer Trustee
such Relevant Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor
Issuer Trustee all Trust Property, all proceeds thereof and money held by such
Relevant Trustee hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities and the Issuer
Trust.

         (b)      Upon request of any such successor Issuer Trustee, the Issuer
Trust shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting
in and confirming to such successor Issuer Trustee all such rights, powers and
trusts referred to in the first or second preceding paragraph, as the case may
be.

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

Section 8.12.     Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

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

Section  8.13.    Preferential Collection of Claims Against Depositor or Issuer
Trust.

         If and when the Property Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the
Depositor (or any other obligor upon Junior Subordinated Debentures or the Trust
Securities), the Property Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the
Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Depositor or
the Issuer Trust (or any such other obligor) as is required by the Trust
Indenture Act.

Section 8.14.     Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

         In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition, or other similar judicial
proceeding relative to the Issuer Trust or any other obligor upon the Trust
Securities or the property of the Issuer Trust or of such other obligor, the
Property Trustee (irrespective of whether any Distributions on the Trust
Securities shall then be due and payable and irrespective of whether the
Property Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer Trust for the payment
of any past due Distributions) shall be entitled and empowered, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

         (a)      to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of any
Distributions owing and unpaid in respect of the Trust Securities and to file
such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have
the claims of the Property Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Property Trustee, its
agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

         (b)      to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian,
receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official
in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such
payments to the Property Trustee and, in the event the Property Trustee shall
consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the
Property Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Property Trustee, its agents and counsel, and
any other amounts due the Property Trustee.

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

Section 8.15.     Reports by Property Trustee.

         (a)      Within 60 days of January 31 of each year commencing with
January 31, 2002, the Property Trustee shall transmit to all Holders in
accordance with Section 10.8, and to the Depositor, a brief report dated as of
the immediately preceding January 31 with respect to:

                  (i)      its eligibility under Section 8.7 or, in lieu
         thereof, if to the best of its knowledge it has continued to be
         eligible under said Section, a written statement to such effect; and

                  (ii)     any change in the property and funds in its
         possession as Property Trustee since the date of its last report and
         any action taken by the Property Trustee in the performance of its
         duties hereunder which it has not previously reported and which in its
         opinion materially affects the Trust Securities.

                                       47
<PAGE>   54

         (b)      In addition, the Property Trustee shall transmit to Holders

Agreement as may be required pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act at the times
and in the manner provided pursuant thereto as set forth in Section 10.10 of
this Trust Agreement.

         (c)      A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such
transmission to Holders, be filed by the Property Trustee with the Depositor.

Section 8.16.     Reports to the Property Trustee.

         The Depositor and the Administrators on behalf of the Issuer Trust
shall provide to the Property Trustee such documents, reports and information as

certificate required by Section 314(a) of the Trust Indenture Act in the form,
in the manner and at the times required by Section 314 of the Trust Indenture
Act, as set forth in Section 10.10 of this Trust Agreement. The Depositor and
the Administrators shall annually file with the Property Trustee a certificate
specifying whether such Person is in compliance with all the terms and covenants
applicable to such Person hereunder.

Section 8.17.     Evidence of Compliance with Conditions Precedent.

         Each of the Depositor and the Administrators on behalf of the Issuer
Trust shall provide to the Property Trustee such evidence of compliance with any
conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Trust Agreement that relate
to any of the matters set forth in Section 314(c) of the Trust Indenture Act as
set forth in Section 10.10 of this Trust Agreement. Any certificate or opinion
required to be given by an officer pursuant to Section 314(c)(1) of the Trust
Indenture Act shall be given in the form of an Officers' Certificate.

Section 8.18.     Number of Issuer Trustees.

         (a)      The number of Issuer Trustees shall be two. The Property
Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may be the same Person, in which event the
number of Issuer Trustees shall be one.

         (b)      If an Issuer Trustee ceases to hold office for any reason, a
vacancy shall occur. The vacancy shall be filled with an Issuer Trustee
appointed in accordance with Section 8.10.

         (c)      The death, resignation, retirement, removal, bankruptcy,
incompetence or incapacity to perform the duties of an Issuer Trustee shall not
operate to dissolve, terminate or annul the Issuer Trust or terminate this Trust
Agreement.

Section 8.19.     Delegation of Power.

         (a)      Any Administrator may, by power of attorney consistent with

                                       48
<PAGE>   55

         (b)      The Administrators shall have power to delegate from time to
time to such of their number the doing of such things and the execution of such
instruments either in the name of the Issuer Trust or the names of the
Administrators or otherwise as the Administrators may deem expedient, to the
extent such delegation is not prohibited by applicable law or contrary to the
provisions of this Trust Agreement.

Section 8.20.     Appointment of Administrators.

         (a)      The Administrators (other than the initial Administrators)
shall be appointed by the Holders of a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the
Common Securities and all Administrators (including the initial Administrators)
may be removed by the Holders of a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Common

agreeing to comply with the terms of this Trust Agreement. If at any time there
is no Administrator, the Property Trustee or any Holder who has been a Holder of
Trust Securities for at least six months may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of one or more Administrators.

         (b)      Whenever a vacancy in the number of Administrators shall
occur, until such vacancy is filled by the appointment of an Administrator in
accordance with this Section 8.20, the Administrators in office, regardless of
their number (and notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement),
shall have all the powers granted to the Administrators and shall discharge all
the duties imposed upon the Administrators by this Trust Agreement.

         (c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this
Trust Agreement, in the event any Administrator or a Delaware Trustee who is a
natural person dies or becomes, in the opinion of the Holders of a Majority in
Liquidation Amount of the Common Securities, incompetent, or incapacitated, the
vacancy created by such death, incompetence or incapacity may be filled by the
remaining Administrators, if there were at least two of them prior to such
vacancy and by the Depositor, if there were not two such Administrators
immediately prior to such vacancy (with the successor in each case being a
Person who satisfies the eligibility requirement for Administrators or Delaware
Trustee, as the case may be, set forth in Section 8.7).

         (d)      Except as otherwise provided in this Trust Agreement or by
applicable law, any one Administrator may execute any document or otherwise take

<PAGE>   56

Section 9.2.      Early Dissolution.

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

         (a)      the occurrence of any Bankruptcy Event with respect to the
Depositor, unless the Depositor shall transfer the Common Securities as provided
by Section 5.11, in which case this provision shall refer instead to any
Bankruptcy Event with respect to the successor Holder of the Common Securities;

         (b)      delivery of the written direction to the Property Trustee from
the Holder of the Common Securities at any time to dissolve the Issuer Trust
and, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Issuer Trust as
provided by applicable law, to distribute the Junior Subordinated Debentures to
Holders in exchange for the Preferred Securities (which direction, subject to
Section 9.4(a), is optional and wholly within the discretion of the Holder of
the Common Securities);

         (c)      the redemption of all of the Preferred Securities in
connection with the redemption of all the Junior Subordinated Debentures; and

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

Section 9.3.      Termination.

         The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Issuer Trustees,
the Administrators and the Issuer Trust created and continued hereby shall
terminate upon the latest to occur of the following: (a) the distribution by the
Property Trustee to Holders of all amounts required to be distributed hereunder
upon the liquidation of the Issuer Trust pursuant to Section 9.4, or upon the
redemption of all of the Trust Securities pursuant to Section 4.2, (b) the
payment of any expenses owed by the Issuer Trust, (c) the discharge of all
administrative duties of the Administrators, including the performance of any
tax reporting obligations with respect to the Issuer Trust or the Holders, and
(d) the filing of a certificate of cancellation with the Delaware Secretary of
State pursuant to Section 3810 of the Delaware Business Trust Act.

Section 9.4.      Liquidation.

         (a)      If an Early Termination Event specified in clause (a), (b) or
(d) of Section 9.2 occurs or upon the Expiration Date, the Issuer Trust shall be
liquidated by the Property Trustee as expeditiously as the Property Trustee
determines to be possible by distributing, after satisfaction of liabilities to
creditors of the Issuer Trust as provided by applicable law, to each Holder a
Like Amount of Junior Subordinated Debentures, subject to Section 9.4(d). Notice
of liquidation shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail,
postage prepaid, mailed not later than 15 nor more than 45 days prior to the
Liquidation Date to each Holder of Trust

                                       50
<PAGE>   57

Securities at such Holder's address appearing in the Securities Register. All
notices of liquidation shall:

                  (i)      state the Liquidation Date;

                  (ii)     state that, from and after the Liquidation Date, the
         Trust Securities will no longer be deemed to be Outstanding and any
         Trust Securities Certificates not surrendered for exchange will be
         deemed to represent a Like Amount of Junior Subordinated Debentures;
         and

                  (iii)    provide such information with respect to the
         mechanics by which Holders may exchange Trust Securities Certificates
         for Junior Subordinated Debentures, or if Section 9.4(d) applies
         receive a Liquidation Distribution, as the Administrators or the
         Property Trustee shall deem appropriate.

         (b)      Except where Section 9.2(c) or 9.4(d) applies, in order to
effect the liquidation of the Issuer Trust and distribution of the Junior
Subordinated Debentures to Holders, the Property Trustee shall establish a
record date for such distribution (which shall be not more than 30 days prior to
the Liquidation Date) and, either itself acting as exchange agent or through the
appointment of a separate exchange agent, shall establish such procedures as it
shall deem appropriate to effect the distribution of Junior Subordinated
Debentures in exchange for the Outstanding Trust Securities Certificates.

         (c)      Except where Section 9.2(c) or 9.4(d) applies, after the
Liquidation Date, (i) the Trust Securities will no longer be deemed to be
Outstanding, (ii) the Clearing Agency for the Preferred Securities or its
nominee, as the registered Holder of the Global Preferred Securities
Certificate, shall receive a registered global certificate or certificates
representing the Junior Subordinated Debentures to be delivered upon such
distribution with respect to Preferred Securities held by the Clearing Agency or
its nominee, and (iii) any Trust Securities Certificates not held by the
Clearing Agency for the Preferred Securities or its nominee as specified in
clause (ii) above will be deemed to represent Junior Subordinated Debentures
having a principal amount equal to the stated Liquidation Amount of the Trust
Securities represented thereby and bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an
amount equal to the accumulated and unpaid Distributions on such Trust
Securities until such certificates are presented to the Securities Registrar for
transfer or reissuance.

         (d)      If, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 9.4,
whether because of an order for dissolution entered by a court of competent
jurisdiction or otherwise, distribution of the Junior Subordinated Debentures is
not practical, or if any Early Termination Event specified in clause (c) of
Section 9.2 occurs, the Trust Property shall be liquidated, and the Issuer Trust
shall be liquidated by the Property Trustee in such manner as the Property
Trustee determines. In such event, on the date of the dissolution of the Issuer
Trust, Holders will be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Issuer Trust
available for distribution to Holders, after satisfaction of liabilities to
creditors of the Issuer Trust as provided by applicable law, an amount equal to
the aggregate of the Liquidation Amount per Trust Security plus accumulated and
unpaid Distributions thereon to the date of payment (such amount being the
"Liquidation Distribution").

                                       51

<PAGE>   58

If, upon any such dissolution, the Liquidation Distribution can be paid only in
part because the Issuer Trust has insufficient assets available to pay in full
the aggregate Liquidation Distribution, then, subject to the next succeeding
sentence, the amounts payable by the Issuer Trust on the Trust Securities shall
be paid on a pro rata basis (based upon Liquidation Amounts). The Holders of the
Common Securities will be entitled to receive Liquidation Distributions upon any
such liquidation pro rata (determined as aforesaid) with Holders of Preferred
Securities, except that, if a Debenture Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Preferred Securities shall have a priority over the Common
Securities as provided in Section 4.3.

         (e)      Following the dissolution of the Issuer Trust and after the
completion of the winding up of the affairs of the Issuer Trust, one of the
Issuer Trustees shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Delaware
Secretary of State.

Section 9.5.      Mergers, Consolidations, Amalgamations or Replacements of the
Issuer Trust.

         The Issuer Trust may not merge with or into, consolidate, amalgamate,
or be replaced by, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety to, any entity, except pursuant to this Section 9.5
and Section 9.4. At the request of the Holders of the Common Securities, and
with the consent of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of
the Preferred Securities but without the consent of the Delaware Trustee or the
Property Trustee, the Issuer Trust may merge with or into, consolidate,
amalgamate, or be replaced by or convey, transfer or lease its properties and
assets substantially as an entirety to a trust organized as such under the laws
of any state; provided, however, that (a) such successor entity either (i)
expressly assumes all of the obligations of the Issuer Trust with respect to the
Preferred Securities or (ii) substitutes for the Preferred Securities other
securities having substantially the same terms as the Preferred Securities (the
"Successor Securities") so long as the Successor Securities have the same
priority as the Preferred Securities with respect to distributions and payments
upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise, (b) a trustee of such successor
entity possessing the same powers and duties as the Property Trustee is
appointed to hold the Junior Subordinated Debentures, (c) such merger,
consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease does not
cause the Preferred Securities (including any Successor Securities) to be
