all series or one or more series, as the case may be, 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
herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when
such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is
hereby expressly required, to the Company. 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 Indenture and conclusive in favor of the
Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.04.

                  (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any
such instrument or writing may be proved in any reasonable manner that the
Trustee deems sufficient and in accordance with such reasonable rules as the
Trustee may determine.

Security Register.

                  (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every
future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every 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 Trustee, the
Security Registrar, any Paying Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether
or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.

                  SECTION 1.07. Separability Clause. In case any provision in
this Indenture or in any Security shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

                  SECTION 1.08. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture
or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than
the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit
or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

                  SECTION 1.09. Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest
Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a
business day at any Place of Payment, then payment of interest or principal (and
premium, if any) need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may
be made on the next succeeding business day at such Place of Payment with the
same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption
Date, or at the Stated Maturity; provided that no interest shall accrue for the
period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated
Maturity, as the case may be.

upon repayment at the option of the Holder or at Stated Maturity and in such
case the overdue principal of this Security shall bear interest at the rate of
        % per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be

interest on any overdue principal that is not so paid on demand shall bear
interest at the rate of            % per annum (to the extent that the payment
of such interest shall be legally enforceable), which shall accrue from the date
of such demand for payment to the date payment of such interest has been made or
duly provided for, and such interest shall also be payable on demand.]

Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the
Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register]

payment of interest may be made by wire transfer [of immediately available

Securities of a particular series are to be issued as a Global Security, then,
notwithstanding clause (8) of Section 3.01, the Company shall execute and the
Trustee shall, in accordance with Section 3.03 and the Company Order delivered
to the Trustee thereunder, authenticate and deliver, the Global Security, which

aggregate principal amount of such of the Outstanding Securities of such series
as shall be specified therein, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the
Depository or its nominee, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to the
Depository or pursuant to the Depository's instruction and (iv) shall bear a
legend substantially to the following effect: "Except as otherwise provided in
Section 2.05 of the Indenture, this Security may be transferred, in whole but
not in part, only to another nominee of the Depository or to a successor
Depository or to a nominee of such successor Depository."

nominee of the Depository for such series, or to a successor Depository for such
series selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor
Depository.

                  (c) If at any time the Depository for a series of Securities
notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository
for such series or if at any time the Depository for such series shall no longer
be registered or in good standing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, or other applicable statute or regulation and a successor Depository
for such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company
receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be,

and the Company will execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee
will authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series in definitive
registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security
of such series, in exchange for such Global Security. In addition, the Company
may at any time determine that the Securities of any series shall no longer be
represented by a Global Security and that the provisions of this Section 2.05

Company will execute and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee, upon
receipt of an Officers' Certificate evidencing such determination by the
Company, will authenticate and deliver Securities of such series in definitive

aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security
of such series, in exchange for such Global Security. Upon the exchange of the
Global Security for such Securities in definitive registered form without
coupons, in authorized denominations, the Global Security shall be cancelled by
the Trustee. Such Securities in definitive registered form issued in exchange
for the Global Security pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) shall be registered in
such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depository, pursuant to
instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall
instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Persons
in whose names such Securities are so registered.

identical except as to denomination and except as may otherwise be provided in
or pursuant to such Board Resolution and set forth in such Officers' Certificate
or in any indenture supplemental hereto. Not all Securities of any one series
need be issued at the same time, and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be
reopened for issuances of additional Securities of such series.

                  If any of the terms of the series are established by action
taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, such Board Resolution and the Officers'
Certificate setting forth the terms of the series shall be delivered to the
Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Company Order for authentication and
delivery of Securities of such series.

                  SECTION 3.02. Denominations. The Securities of each series
shall be issuable in definitive registered form without coupons and, except for
any Global Security, in such denominations as shall be specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01. In the absence of any such provisions with respect to the
Securities of any series, the Securities of such series, other than a Global
Security, shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple
thereof.

                  SECTION 3.03. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.
The Securities shall be signed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the
Board, its President, one of its Executive Vice Presidents, one of its Group
Vice Presidents, or one of its Vice Presidents and its Treasurer or one of its
Assistant Treasurers, its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries, under
its corporate seal reproduced

                                       18

thereon. Such signatures upon the Securities may be the manual or facsimile
signatures of the present or any future such authorized officers and may be
imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Securities.

                  Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of
individuals who were at the time they signed such Securities the proper officers
of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or
any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and
delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such
Securities.

                  At any time and from time to time after the execution and
delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series
executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a
Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the
Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such
Securities. If not all the Securities of any series are to be issued at one time
and if the Board Resolution or supplemental indenture establishing such series
shall so permit, such Company Order may set forth procedures acceptable to the
Trustee for the issuance of such Securities and determining terms of particular
Securities of such series such as interest rate, maturity date, date of issuance
and date from which interest shall accrue. In authenticating such Securities,
and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation
to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to
TIA Section 315) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel
stating:

                  (a) that the form or forms and terms of such Securities have
         been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

                  (b) that all conditions precedent to the authentication and
         delivery of such Securities have been complied with and that such
         Securities, when completed by appropriate insertions and executed by
         the Company and delivered to the Trustee for authentication in
         accordance with this Indenture, authenticated and delivered by the
         Trustee in accordance with this Indenture and issued by the Company in
         the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of
         Counsel, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of
         the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to
         applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other similar
         laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement
         of creditors' rights, to general equitable principles and to such other
         qualifications as such counsel shall conclude do not materially affect
         the rights of Holders of such Securities; and

                  (c) that all laws and requirements in respect of the execution
         and delivery by the Company of such Securities have been complied with.

                  If not all the Securities of any series are to be issued at
one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver an Opinion of Counsel at the time
of issuance of each Security, but such opinion with appropriate modifications
shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the first Security of
such series.

                  The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate and deliver
any such Securities if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that
such action (i) may not lawfully be taken or (ii) would expose the Trustee to
personal liability.

                  Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

                  No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this
Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such
Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for
herein, executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon
any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such
Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to
the benefits of this Indenture.

                  SECTION 3.04. Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of
definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon Company
Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are
printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in

                                       19
<PAGE>

any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive
Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate
insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers
executing such Securities may determine (but that does not affect or change the
rights, duties or responsibilities of the Trustee), as evidenced by their
execution of such Securities.

                  If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company
will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without
unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such
series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for
definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities
of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for
that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of
any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like
principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized
denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall
in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the
definitive Securities of such series.

                  SECTION 3.05. Registration; Registration of Transfer and
Exchange. The Company shall cause to be kept at the office or agency of the
Company maintained pursuant to Section 10.02 a register (the register maintained
in such office and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of
Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the "Security
Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,
the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 2.05, provide for the
registration of Securities and transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby
appointed "Security Registrar" for the purpose of registering Securities and
transfers of Securities as herein provided.

                  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.05, upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any definitive Security of any series at the office
or agency in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new definitive Securities of the same
series of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount.

                  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.05, at the option of
the Holder, definitive Securities of any series may be exchanged for other
definitive Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of
a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the definitive Securities
to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any definitive Securities are
so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, the definitive Securities which the Holder making the
exchange is entitled to receive.

                  All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing
the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the
Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

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

                  No service charge shall be made for any registration of
transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
relation thereto.

                  The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning at
the opening of business 15 days before the day of the selection for redemption
of Securities of that series under Section 11.03 and ending at the close of
business on the day of the mailing of notice of redemption, (ii) to register the
transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in
part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part, or
(iii) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security which has been
surrendered for repayment at the option of the Holder, except the portion, if
any, of such Security not to be so repaid.

                  SECTION 3.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Securities.
If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a
new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount, and
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, or, in case any such
mutilated Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company
in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

                  If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i)
evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security
and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of
them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to
the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its request the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen
Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal
amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding or, in case any
such destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and
payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security,
pay such Security.

                  Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the
Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

                  Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this
Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the
destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone,
and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued
hereunder.

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

                  SECTION 3.07. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.
Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly
provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose
name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the
close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest at the office or
agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 10.02;
provided, however, that each instalment of interest on any Security may at the
Company's option be paid by mailing a check for such interest, payable to or
upon the written order of the Person entitled thereto pursuant to Section 3.08,
to the address of such Person as it appears on the Security Register or by wire
transfer to an account of the Person entitled thereto as such account shall be
provided to the Security Registrar and shall appear on the Security Register.

                  Any interest on any Security of any series which is payable
but is not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date
(herein called "Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable to the
Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder,
and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each
case, as provided in clause (1) or (2) below:

                  (1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted
         Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series
         (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the
         close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such
         Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The
         Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted
         Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the
         date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall
         deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate
         amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or
         shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on
         or prior to the date of the

                                       21
<PAGE>
         proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the
         benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this
         clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date
         for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than
         15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed
         payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of
         the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify
         the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the
         expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of
         such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be
         mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of
         such series at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not
         less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the
         proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date
         therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid
         to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their
         respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of
         business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable
         pursuant to the following clause (2).

                  (2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on
         the Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not
         inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which
         such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required
         by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee
         of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment
         shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

                  Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each
Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in
exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest
accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

                  SECTION 3.08. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment
of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any
agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such
Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of
receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any, on) and (subject to
Section 3.07) interest, if any, on such Security and for all other purposes
whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company,
the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.

                  SECTION 3.09. Cancellation. All Securities surrendered for
payment, redemption, repayment at the option of the Holder, conversion,
exchange, registration of transfer, conversion or exchange or for credit against
any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the
Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The
Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities
previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have
acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be
promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu
of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section,
except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. Cancelled Securities held by
the Trustee may be destroyed by it and, if so destroyed, the Trustee shall
deliver its certificate of such destruction to the Company, unless by a Company
Order the Company directs their return to it.

                  SECTION 3.10. Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series, any
interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

                                  ARTICLE FOUR

                           SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

                  SECTION 4.01. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This
Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect (except as to
any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities
herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company,
shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture, when

                                       22
<PAGE>

                  (1) either

                           (A) all Securities theretofore authenticated and
                  delivered (other than (i) Securities which have been
                  destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid
                  as provided in Section 3.06 and (ii) Securities for whose
                  payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or
                  segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter
                  repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as
                  provided in Section 10.03) have been delivered to the Trustee
                  for cancellation; or

                           (B) all such Securities not theretofore delivered to
                  the Trustee for cancellation

                                    (i)   have become due and payable, or

                                    (ii)  will become due and payable at their
                           Stated Maturity within one year, or

                                    (iii) are to be called for redemption within
                           one year under arrangements satisfactory to the
                           Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the
                           Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the
                           Company,

                  and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has
                  deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust
                  funds in trust for the purpose an amount sufficient to pay and
                  discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not
                  theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for
                  principal (and premium, if any) and interest to the date of
                  such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due
                  and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as
                  the case may be;

                  (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums
         payable hereunder by the Company; and

                  (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
         Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
         precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and
         discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.

In the event there are Securities of two or more series hereunder, the Trustee
shall be required to execute an instrument acknowledging satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture only if requested to do so with respect to
Securities of all series as to which it is Trustee and if the other conditions
thereto are met. In the event there are two or more Trustees hereunder, then the
effectiveness of any such instrument shall be conditioned upon receipt of such
instruments from all Trustees hereunder.

                  Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 6.06 and,
if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of
clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.02
and the last paragraph of Section 10.03 shall survive.

                  SECTION 4.02. Application of Trust Money. Subject to the
provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money deposited with the
Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in
accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the
payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company
acting as a Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled
thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, for whose
payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not
be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

                  SECTION 4.03. Repayment of Moneys Held by Paying Agent. In
connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture all moneys then
held by any Paying Agent (other than the

                                       23
<PAGE>

Trustee, if the Trustee be a Paying Agent) under the provisions of this
Indenture shall, upon demand of the Company, be repaid to it or paid to the
Trustee and thereupon such Paying Agent shall be released from all further
liability with respect to such moneys.

                  SECTION 4.04. Repayment of Moneys Held by Trustee. Any moneys
deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent for the payment of the principal
of (or premium, if any, on) or interest, if any, on any Security of any series
and not applied but remaining unclaimed by the Holders for two years after the
date upon which the principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest, if any,
on such Security shall have become due and payable, shall be repaid to the
Company by the Trustee or such Paying Agent on demand; and the Holder of any of
the Securities entitled to receive such payment shall thereafter look only to
the Company for the payment thereof and all liability of the Trustee or such
Paying Agent with respect to such moneys shall thereupon cease; provided,
however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make
any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be mailed to each
such Holder or published once a week for two successive weeks (in each case on
any day of the week) in an Authorized Newspaper, or both, a notice that said
moneys have not been so applied and that after a date named therein any
unclaimed balance of said moneys then remaining will be returned to the Company.
It shall not be necessary for more than one such publication to be made in the
same newspaper.

                                  ARTICLE FIVE

                                    REMEDIES

                  SECTION 5.01. Events of Default. "Event of Default", wherever
used herein with respect to Securities of any series, shall mean any one of the
following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it
shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant
to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation
of any administrative or governmental body):

                  (1) default in the payment of any interest upon any Security
         of that series when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such
         default for a period of 30 days; or

                  (2) default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if
         any, on) any Security of that series at its Maturity, and continuance
         of such default for five business days; or

                  (3) default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when
         and as due by the terms of a Security of that series, and continuance
         of such default for five business days; or

                  (4) default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or
         warranty of the Company in this Indenture (other than a covenant or
         warranty a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in
         this Section specifically dealt with or which has expressly been
         included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of series of

         petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
         of or in respect of the Company under any applicable Federal or State

         continuance of any

<PAGE>

         such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order

         proceeding under the National Bankruptcy Act or any other similar
         Federal or State law or of any other case or proceeding to be
         adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by the Company to

         appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver,
         liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the

         the making by the Company of an assignment for the benefit of
         creditors, or the admission by the Company in writing of its inability
         to pay its debts generally as they become due; or

                  (7) any other Event of Default provided with respect to
         Securities of that series.

                  SECTION 5.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and
Annulment. If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at
the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the
Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if
the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such
portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series)
of all of the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a
notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and
upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) shall
become immediately due and payable.

                  At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with
respect to Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or
decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as
hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the
Company and the Trustee, may waive all defaults and rescind and annul such
declaration and its consequences if

                  (1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum
                  sufficient to pay

                           (A) all overdue interest on all Securities of that
                  series,

                           (B) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and
                  any sinking fund payments with respect to any Securities of
                  that series which have become due otherwise than by such
                  declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate
                  or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities,

                           (C) to the extent that payment of such interest is
                  enforceable under applicable law, interest upon overdue
                  interest to the date of such payment or deposit at the rate or
                  rates prescribed therefor in such Securities or, if no such
                  rate or rates are so prescribed, at the rate borne by the
                  Securities during the period of such default, and

                           (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee
                  hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses,
                  disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
                  counsel;

                  and

                  (2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that
                  series, other than the non-payment of the principal of
                  Securities of that series which have become due solely by such
                  declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as
                  provided in Section 5.13.

                                       25
<PAGE>

No such waiver or rescission and annulment shall affect any subsequent default
or impair any right consequent thereon.

                  SECTION 5.03. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for
Enforcement by Trustee. The Company covenants that (1) in case default shall be
made in the payment of any instalment of interest on any Security of any series,
as and when the same shall become due and payable, and such default shall have
continued for a period of 30 days, or (2) in case default shall be made in the
payment of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Security of any series
on its Maturity or otherwise, then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will
pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities of such
series, the whole amount that then shall have become due and payable on all such
Securities for principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, or both, as
the case may be, with interest upon the overdue principal and (to the extent
that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) upon overdue
instalments of interest at the rate borne by the Securities during the period of
such default; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be
sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee, its agents,
attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all
advances made, by the Trustee except as a result of its negligence or bad faith.

                  In case the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith
upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any action or proceedings at
law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may
prosecute any such action or proceedings to judgment or final decree, and may
enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company or any other
obligor upon such Securities of such series and collect in the manner provided
by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such
Securities of such series wherever situated the moneys adjudged or decreed to be
payable.

                  If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any
series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to
protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of
such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem
most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific
enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the
exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

                  SECTION 5.04. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the
pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial
proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or
the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the
Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be
due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and
irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company
for the payment of overdue principal or interest, shall be entitled and
empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

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

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or
other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by
each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the
Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to
pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other
amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.06.

                                       26
<PAGE>

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

                  SECTION 5.05. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of
Securities. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the
Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession
of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating
thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in
its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall,
after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the
ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such
judgment has been recovered.

                  SECTION 5.06. Application of Money Collected. Any money or
property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in
the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of
the distribution of such money or property on account of principal (or premium,
if any) or interest, if any, upon presentation of the Securities and the
notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender
thereof if fully paid:

                  FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under
         Section 6.06;

                  SECOND: Subject to the terms of Article 15, if applicable, to
         the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and
         premium, if any, on) and interest, if any, on the Securities in respect
         of which or for the benefit of which such money or property has been
         collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind,
         according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for
         principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, respectively; and

                  THIRD: To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the
         Company, its successors or assigns or to whosoever may be lawfully
         entitled to receive the same, or as a court of competent jurisdiction
         may direct.

                  SECTION 5.07. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of any Security
of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver
or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless

                  (1) such Holder shall have previously given written notice to
         the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the
         Securities of that series;

                  (2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of
         the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written
         request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such
         Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

                  (3) such Holder or Holders shall have offered to the Trustee
         reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and
         liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

                  (4) the Trustee for 90 days after its receipt of such notice,
         request and offer of indemnity shall have failed to institute any such
         proceeding; and

                  (5) no direction inconsistent with such written request shall
         have been given to the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.12 during such
         90-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
         Outstanding Securities of that series;

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have
any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision
of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of
such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any
other of

                                       27
<PAGE>
such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner
herein provided and for the equal and ratable and common benefit of all of such
Holders.

                  SECTION 5.08. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive
Principal, Premium and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision in this
Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute
and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any,
on) and (subject to Section 3.07) interest, if any, on such Security on the
Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of
redemption or repayment at the option of the Holder, on the Redemption Date or
Repayment Date, as the case may be) and to institute suit for the enforcement of
any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of
such Holder.

                  SECTION 5.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the
Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or
remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to
such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such
proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally
and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights
and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such
proceeding had been instituted.

                  SECTION 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as
otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.06, no
right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the
Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every
right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in
addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any
right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

                  SECTION 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or
omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right
or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or
remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence
therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee
or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be
deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

                  SECTION 5.12. Control by Holders. The Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall
have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power
conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such series;
provided, however, that

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

                  (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
         Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction,

                  (3) such direction is not unduly prejudicial to the rights of
         Holders not taking part in such direction, and

                  (4) such direction would not involve the Trustee in personal
         liability.

                  SECTION 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of not less
than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
any series may on behalf of the holders of all the Securities of such series
waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its
consequences, except a default

                                       28
<PAGE>

                  (1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any,
         on) or interest, if any, on any Security of such series, or

                  (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under
         Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the
         Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected.

                  Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and
any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for
every purpose of this Indenture, and the Company, the Trustee and the Holders
shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively;
but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any
right consequent thereon.

                  SECTION 5.14. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this
Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall
be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any
suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any
suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as
Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay
the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess
reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party
litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this
Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Company, to any suit
instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of
Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder
for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on)
or interest, if any, on any Security on or after the Stated Maturity or
Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or
after the Redemption Date).

                                   ARTICLE SIX

                                   THE TRUSTEE

                  SECTION 6.01. Notice of Defaults. Within 90 days after the
occurrence of any default hereunder with respect to the Securities of any
series, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Securities of such
series, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, notice of
such default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such default shall have been
cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the
payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest, if any, on any
Security of such series or in the payment of any sinking fund instalment with
respect to Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in
withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive
committee, or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the
Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the
interest of the Holders of Securities of such series; and provided further that
in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 5.01(4) with
respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given
until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this
Section, the term "default" means any event which is, or after notice or lapse
of time or both would become, an Event of Default (not including periods of
grace, if any) with respect to Securities of such series.

                  SECTION 6.02. Certain Rights of Trustee. Subject to the
provisions of TIA Section 315(a) through 315(d):

                  (a) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or
         refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement,
         instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent,
         order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness, approval
         or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have
         been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

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

                                       29
<PAGE>

                  (c) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the
         Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proven or established
         prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the
         Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may,
         in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers'
         Certificate;

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

                  (e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any
         of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request
         or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless
         such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity
         against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by
         it in compliance with such request or direction;

                  (f) except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
         Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or
         matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
         opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond,
         debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or
         document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further
         inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit;
         and

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

                  No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to
expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any personal financial liability
in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of
its rights or powers, if there shall be reasonable grounds for believing that
repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is
not reasonably assured to it.

                  SECTION 6.03. Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals in
Indenture or in Securities. The recitals contained herein and in the Securities,
except the Trustee's certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the
statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their
correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or
sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities, except that the Trustee
represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture,
authenticate the Securities and perform its obligations hereunder and that the
statements made by it in a Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1 supplied to the
Company are true and accurate, subject to the qualifications set forth therein.
The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company
of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

                  SECTION 6.04. May Hold Securities. The Trustee, any Paying
Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its
individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities
and, subject to TIA Sections 310(b) and 311, may otherwise deal with the Company
with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent,
Security Registrar or such other agent.

                  SECTION 6.05. Money Held in Trust. Subject to the provisions
of Section 4.04, all moneys received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied
as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were
received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent
required by law. The Trustee shall pay such interest on any moneys received by
it hereunder as it may agree with the Company to pay thereon. So long as no
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all interest allowed on
any such moneys shall be paid from time to time upon the receipt of a Company
Order with respect thereto.

                  SECTION 6.06. Compensation and Reimbursement. The Company
covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee
shall be entitled to, such compensation as the Company and the Trustee shall
agree in writing for all services rendered by it hereunder (which shall not be
limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an
express trust), and, except as otherwise expressly provided, the Company will
pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with
any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation
and the expenses and disbursements of its agents, attorneys and counsel and of
all persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement
or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith. If any property other
than cash shall at any time be subject to a lien in favor of the Holders, the
Trustee, if and to the extent authorized by a receivership or bankruptcy court
of competent jurisdiction or by the supplemental instrument subjecting such
property to such lien, shall be entitled to make advances for the purpose of
preserving such property or of discharging tax liens or other prior liens or
encumbrances thereon. The Company also covenants to indemnify the Trustee for,
and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without
negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, arising out of or in
connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the
costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in
connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
hereunder. The obligations of the Company under this Section shall not be
subordinated to the payment of Senior Indebtedness pursuant to Article Fifteen
and shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Such additional indebtedness shall
be secured by a lien prior to that of the Securities upon all property and funds
held or collected by the Trustee, as such, except funds held in trust for the
payment of principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest, if any, on
particular Securities.

                  SECTION 6.07. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There
shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be eligible to act as
Trustee under TIA Section 310(a)(1) and shall have a combined capital and
surplus of at least $5,000,000. If such corporation publishes reports of
condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said
supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the
combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its
combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition
so published. If at any time the Trustee 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 Section 6.08.

                  SECTION 6.08. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of
Successor. (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the
applicable requirements of Section 6.09.

                  (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the
Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company
and by mailing notice thereof to the Holders of Securities of such one or more
series, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. If the
instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.09 shall
not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such
notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of such one or more series, or any Holder who has been a bona fide
holder of a Security or Securities of such one or more series for at least six
months may, subject to the provisions of Section 5.14, on behalf of himself and
all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a
successor Trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it
may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor Trustee.

                  (c) The Trustee may be removed and a successor Trustee
appointed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such
series, delivered to the Trustee so removed, to the successor Trustee and to the
Company.

                  (d) If at any time:

                                       31
<PAGE>

                  (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of
         TIA Section 310(b) after written request therefor by the Company or by
         any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security for at least
         six months, or

                  (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.07
         and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company
         or by any such Holder, or

                  (3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be
         adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its
         property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or
         control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of
         rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any such case, the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee
and appoint a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, one copy of
which Board Resolution shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy
to the successor Trustee, or (ii) subject to TIA Section 315(e), any Holder who
has been a bona fide holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf
of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and
the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. Such court may thereupon,
after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the
Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee.

                  (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become
incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for
any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by
a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with
respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any
such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or
more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee
with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with
the applicable requirements of Section 6.09. If, within one year after such
resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be
appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring
Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance
of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section
6.09, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series
and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If
no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have
been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the
manner required by Section 6.09, any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a
Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and
all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such
series.

                  SECTION 6.09. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. (a) In
case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all
Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge
and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting
such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring
Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further
act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts
and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the
successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges
pursuant to Section 6.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such
successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and
shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property
and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.

                  (b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor
Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the
Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture
supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment
and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable
to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the
Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor
Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring

                                       32
<PAGE>

with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed
necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties
of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series
as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in
the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of
this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the
administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being
understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall
constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such
Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from
any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and, upon
the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the resignation or
removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided
therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties
of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series
to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of
the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign,
transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by
such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those
series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.

                  (c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company
shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in
and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts
referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be.

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

                  (e) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as
provided in this Section, the Company shall mail notice of the succession of
such Trustee hereunder to the Holders of the Securities of one or more or all
series, as the case may be, to which the appointment of such successor Trustee
relates as their names and addresses appear on the Security Register. If the
Company fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment
by the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause such notice to be
mailed at the expense of the Company.

                  SECTION 6.10. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession
to Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted
or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or
any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust
business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder,
provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this
Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the
part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been
authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor
by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt
such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same
effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities;
and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been
authenticated, any successor Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in
the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee;
and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is
anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of
the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the
certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate
Securities in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its
successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

                  SECTION 7.01. Disclosure of Names and Addresses of Holders.
Each and every Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same, agrees
with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee nor
any Security Registrar nor any Paying Agent shall be held accountable by reason
of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the
Holders in accordance

                                       33

derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing
any material pursuant to a request made under TIA Section 312(b).

                  SECTION 7.02. Reports by Trustee. On or before July 15, 2002,
and on or before July 15 in every year thereafter, so long as required by TIA
Section 313(a), and so long as any Securities are Outstanding hereunder, the
Trustee shall transmit to the Holders, in the manner and to the extent provided
in TIA Section 313(c), and to the Company a brief report, dated as of the
preceding May 15 and required by TIA Section 313(a).

                  SECTION 7.03. Reports by Company. (a) The Company covenants
and agrees to file with the Trustee, within 15 days after the Company is
required to file the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports and
of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of
any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by rules and
regulations prescribe) which the Company may be required to file with the
Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934; or, if the Company is not required to file information, documents
or reports pursuant to either of such Sections, then to file with the Trustee
and the Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed from
time to time by the Commission, such of the supplementary and periodic
information, documents and reports which may be required pursuant to Section 13
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in respect of a security listed and

                  (b) The Company covenants and agrees to file with the Trustee
and the Commission, in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed from
time to time by the Commission, such additional information, documents, and
reports with respect to compliance by the Company with the conditions and
covenants provided for in this Indenture as may be required from time to time by

                    CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE OR CONVEYANCE

                  SECTION 8.01. Consolidations and Mergers of Company and
Conveyances Permitted Subject to Certain Conditions. The Company may consolidate
with, or sell or convey all or substantially all its assets to, or merge with or
into any other corporation; provided, however, that in any such case, (i) the
successor corporation shall be a corporation organized and existing under the
laws of the United States of America or a State thereof and such corporation
shall expressly assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of and
interest on all the Securities, according to their tenor, and the due and
punctual performance and observance of all the covenants and conditions of this
Indenture to be performed by the Company, by an indenture supplemental hereto
satisfactory to the Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee by such
corporation, and (ii) such successor corporation shall not, immediately after
such merger or consolidation or such sale or conveyance, be in default in the
performance of any such covenant or condition; provided, however, that the
provisions of clause (i) of this Subsection shall not be applicable if the
Company shall consolidate with or merge into a direct or indirect majority-owned
subsidiary of the Company, and the Company shall be the surviving corporation.

                  SECTION 8.02. Rights and Duties of Successor Corporation. In
case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon any such
assumption by the successor corporation, such successor corporation shall
succeed to and be substituted for the Company with the same effect as if it had
been named herein as the Company, and the predecessor corporation shall be
relieved of any further obligation under this Indenture. Such successor
corporation thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue

                                       34
<PAGE>

either in its own name or in the name of the Company, any or all of the
Securities issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by
the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor
corporation, instead of the Company, and subject to all the terms, conditions
and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and
shall deliver any Securities which previously shall have been signed and
delivered by the officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and
any Securities which such successor corporation thereafter shall cause to be
signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All the Securities so
issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this
Indenture as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with
the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Securities had been issued at
the date of the execution hereof.

                  In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance
such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the
Securities thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

                  SECTION 8.03. Securities to be Secured in Certain Events. If,
upon any such consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other
corporation, or upon any sale or conveyance of the property of the Company as an
entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other corporation, any Principal
Domestic Manufacturing Property of the Company or any Manufacturing Subsidiary
or any shares of stock or Debt of any Manufacturing Subsidiary would thereupon
become subject to any Mortgage (as defined in Section 10.04) securing any Debt
(as defined in Section 10.04), then unless the Company could create such
Mortgage pursuant to Section 10.04 without equally and ratably securing the
Securities, the Company, prior to or at the time of such consolidation, merger,
sale or conveyance, will cause the Securities to be secured equally and ratably
with (or prior to) the Debt secured by such Mortgage.

                  SECTION 8.04. Officers' Certificate and Opinion of Counsel.
The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.02, may receive an Officers'
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any such
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, and any such assumption, complies
with the provisions of this Article Eight.

         Company, or successive successions, and the assumption by the successor
         corporation of the covenants, agreements and obligations of the Company
         pursuant to Article Eight hereof; or

                  (2) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of
         the Holders of all or any series of Securities (and if such covenants
         are to be for the benefit of less than all series of Securities,
         stating that such covenants are expressly being included solely for the
         benefit of such series) or to surrender any right or power herein
         conferred upon the Company; or

                  (3) to add any additional Events of Default for the benefit of
         the Holders of all or any series of Securities (and if such Events of
         Default are to be for the benefit of less than all series of
         Securities, stating that such Events of Default are expressly being
         included solely for the benefit of such series); provided, however,
         that in respect of any such additional Events of Default such
         supplemental indenture may provide for a particular period of grace
         after default (which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed
         in the case of other defaults) or may provide for an immediate
         enforcement upon such default or may limit the remedies available to
         the Trustee upon such default or may limit the right of the Holders of
         a majority in aggregate principal amount of that or those series of
         Securities to which such additional Events of Default apply to waive
         such default; or

                                       35
<PAGE>

                  (4) to add to or change any of the provisions of this
         Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate
         the issuance of Securities in (i) bearer form, registrable or not
         registrable as to principal, and/or (ii) coupon form, registrable or
         not registrable as to principal, and to provide for exchangeability of
         such Securities with Securities issued hereunder in fully registered
         form; or

                  (5) to change or eliminate any of the provisions of this
         Indenture, provided that any such change or elimination shall become
         effective only when there is no Outstanding Security of any series
         created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture which is
         entitled to the benefit of such provision; or

                  (6) to secure the Securities pursuant to the requirements of
         Section 8.03 or 10.04 or otherwise; or

                  (7) to establish the form or terms of Securities of any series
         thereof as permitted by Sections 2.01 and 3.01; or

                  (8) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment
         hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one
         or more series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this
         Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the
         administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee,
         pursuant to the requirements of Section 6.09(b); or

                  (9) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any
         provision herein or in any supplemental indenture which may be
         defective or inconsistent with any other provision herein or in any
         supplemental indenture, or to make such other provisions with respect
         to matters or questions arising under this Indenture, provided that
         such other provisions shall not adversely affect the interests of the
         Holders of Securities of any series in any material respect; or

                  (10) to supplement any of the provisions of this Indenture to
         such extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the
         defeasance and discharge of any series of Securities pursuant to
         Sections 4.01, 14.02 and 14.03; provided that any such action shall not
         adversely affect the interests of the Holders of Securities of such
         series or any other series of Securities in any material respect.

                  The Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Company in
the execution of any such supplemental indenture, to make any further
appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained and to
accept the conveyance, transfer, assignment, mortgage or pledge of any property
thereunder.

                  Any supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of
this Section 9.01 may be executed by the Company and the Trustee without the
consent of the Holders of any of the Outstanding Securities, notwithstanding any
of the provisions of Section 9.02.

                  SECTION 9.02. Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Holders.
With the consent of the Holders of not less than 66 2/3% in principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of each series affected by such supplemental
indenture, by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company and the Trustee, the
Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may, from time
to time and at any time, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental
hereto (which shall conform to the provisions of the TIA as in force at the date
of execution thereof) for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in
any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any
supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders
of Securities of such series under this Indenture; provided, however, that no
such supplemental indenture shall (i) extend the Stated Maturity of the
principal of (or premium, if any, on), or any installment of principal of or
interest, if any, on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or
the rate of interest thereon, or reduce the amount of principal of an Original
Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of
acceleration of the Maturity thereof or impair the right to institute suit for
the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or,
in the case of redemption or repayment at the option of the Holder, on or after
the Redemption Date or Repayment Date, as the case may be), without the consent
of the Holder of each Outstanding

                                       36
<PAGE>
Security so affected, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders
is required for any such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the
Holders of all the Outstanding Securities of such series.

                  A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any
covenant or other provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included
solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which
modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to
such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under
this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series.

                  Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a copy of a
Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture,
and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Holders as
aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of such
supplemental indenture.

                  It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this
Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture,
but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

                  SECTION 9.03. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In
executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental
indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts
created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall
be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the
execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this
Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such
supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or
immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

                  SECTION 9.04. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the
execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this
Article, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in
accordance therewith, and the respective rights, limitations of rights,
obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the
Company and the Holders shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced
hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all
the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be
deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all
purposes.

                  SECTION 9.05. Reference in Securities to Supplemental
Indentures. Securities of any series authenticated and delivered after the
execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall
if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as
to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall
so determine, new Securities of any series so modified as to conform, in the
opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may
be prepared and executed by the Company and such Securities may be authenticated
and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities of such
series.

                  SECTION 9.06. Effect on Senior Indebtedness. No supplemental
indenture shall adversely affect the rights of any holder of Senior Indebtedness
under Article Fifteen without the consent of such holder.

                                   ARTICLE TEN

                       PARTICULAR COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

                  SECTION 10.01. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. The
Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Securities that
it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of (and
premium, if any, on) and interest, if any, on the Securities of that series in
accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture. Each installment
of interest on any Security may at the Company's option be paid by mailing a
check for such interest, payable to or upon the written order of the

                                       37
<PAGE>

Person entitled thereto pursuant to Section 3.07, to the address of such Person
as it appears on the Security Register or by wire transfer to an account of the
Person entitled thereto as such account shall be provided to the Security
Registrar and shall appear on the Security Register. At the option of the
Company, all payments of principal may be paid by official bank check to the
registered Holder of the Security or other person entitled thereto against
surrender of such Security.

                  SECTION 10.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company
will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or
agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for
payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of
transfer or exchange as in this Indenture provided and where notices and demands
to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this
Indenture may be served. The Company will give notice to the Trustee of the
location, and any change in the location, of each such office or agency. In case
the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall
fail to give notice of the location or of any change thereof, such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the
Corporate Trust office of the Trustee. The Company hereby initially appoints the
Trustee as its office or agency for each of said purposes.

                  The Company may also from time to time designate one or more
other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be
presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time
rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or
rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain
an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for
such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any
such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such
other office or agency.

                  SECTION 10.03. Money for Securities Payments to be Held in
Trust. If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect
to any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the
principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest, if any, on any of the
Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the
Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (or premium, if
any) or interest, if any, so becoming due. The Company will promptly notify the
Trustee of any failure to take such action or the failure by any other obligor
on the Securities to make any payment of the principal of or interest on the
Securities when the same shall be due and payable.

                  Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for
any series of Securities, it will, prior to each due date of the principal of
(or premium, if any, on) or interest, if any, on any Securities of that series,
deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (or premium,
if any) or interest, if any, so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for
the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and
(unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the
Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

                  The Company will cause each Paying Agent for any series of
Securities, other than the Trustee, to execute and deliver to the Trustee an
instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to
the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:

                  (1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal
         of (or premium, if any, on) or interest on Securities of that series
         (whether such sums have been paid to it by the Company or by any other
         obligor on the Securities) in trust for the benefit of the Persons
         entitled thereto;

                  (2) give the Trustee notice of any failure by the Company (or
         any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) to make any
         payment of principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest on the
         Securities of that series when the same shall be due and payable; and

                  (3) at any time during the continuance of any Event of
         Default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the
         Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

                                       38
<PAGE>

                  Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture, or for any other reason, pay, or by Company Order
direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the
Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same
trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying
Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying
Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

                  SECTION 10.04. Limitation on Liens. The Company will not
itself, and will not permit any Manufacturing Subsidiary to, incur, issue,
assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any notes, bonds, debentures or other
similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed (notes, bonds, debentures
or other similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed being hereinafter
in this Article called "Debt"), secured by a pledge of, or mortgage or lien on,
any Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property of the Company or any
Manufacturing Subsidiary, or any shares of stock of or Debt of any Manufacturing
Subsidiary (mortgages, pledges and liens being hereinafter in this Article
called "Mortgage" or "Mortgages"), without effectively providing that the
Securities (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other Debt of
the Company or such Manufacturing Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created
ranking equally with the Securities) shall be secured equally and ratably with
(or prior to) such secured Debt, so long as such secured Debt shall be so
secured, unless, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all such
secured Debt so secured plus all Attributable Debt of the Company and its
Manufacturing Subsidiaries in respect of sale and leaseback transactions (as
defined in Section 10.05) would not exceed 5% of Consolidated Net Tangible
Automotive Assets; provided, however, that this Section shall not apply to Debt
secured by:

                  (1) Mortgages on property of, or on any shares of stock or of
         Debt of, any corporation existing at the time such corporation becomes
         a Manufacturing Subsidiary;

                  (2) Mortgages in favor of the Company or any Manufacturing
         Subsidiary;

                  (3) Mortgages in favor of any governmental body to secure
         progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or
         provision of any statute;

                  (4) Mortgages on property, shares of stock or Debt existing at
         the time of acquisition thereof (including acquisition through merger
         or consolidation) or to secure the payment of all or any part of the
         purchase price thereof or to secure any Debt incurred prior to, at the
         time of, or within 60 days after, the acquisition of such property or
         shares of Debt for the purpose of financing all or any part of the
         purchase price thereof; and

                  (5) any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive
         extensions renewals or replacements), as a whole or in part, of any
         Mortgage referred to in the foregoing clauses (1) to (4), inclusive;
         provided that such extension, renewal or replacement Mortgage shall be
         limited to all or a part of the same property, shares of stock or Debt
         that secured the Mortgage extended, renewed or replaced (plus
         improvements on such property).

                  SECTION 10.05. Limitation on Sales and Leasebacks. The Company
will not itself, and it will not permit any Manufacturing Subsidiary to, enter
into any arrangement with any bank, insurance company or other lender or
investor (not including the Company or any Manufacturing Subsidiary) or to which
any such lender or investor is a party, providing for the leasing by the Company
or a Manufacturing Subsidiary for a period, including renewals, in excess of
three years of any Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property which has been or
is to be sold or transferred by the Company or such Manufacturing Subsidiary to
such lender or investor or to any person to whom funds have been or are to be
advanced by such lender or investor on the security of such Principal Domestic
Manufacturing Property (herein referred to as a "sale and leaseback
transaction") unless either:

                  (1) the Company or such Manufacturing Subsidiary could create
         Debt secured by a Mortgage pursuant to Section 10.04 on the Principal
         Domestic Manufacturing Property to be leased

                                       39
<PAGE>

         in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such sale
         and leaseback transaction without equally and ratably securing the
         Securities; or

                  (2) the Company, within 120 days after the sale or transfer
         shall have been made by the Company or by a Manufacturing Subsidiary,
         applies an amount equal to the greater of (i) the net proceeds of the
         sale of the Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property leased pursuant
         to such arrangement or (ii) the fair market value of the Principal
         Domestic Manufacturing Property so leased at the time of entering into
         such arrangement (as determined by any two of the following: the
         Chairman of the Board of the Company, its President, any Executive Vice
         President of the Company, any Vice President of the Company, its
         Treasurer and its Controller) to the retirement of Funded Debt of the
         Company; provide, however, that the amount to be applied to the
         retirement of Funded Debt of the Company shall be reduced by (a) the
         principal amount of any Securities delivered within 120 days after such
         sale to the Trustee for retirement and cancellation and (b) the
         principal amount of Funded Debt, other than Securities, voluntarily
         retired by the Company within 120 days after such sale. Notwithstanding
         the foregoing, no retirement referred to in this clause (2) may be
         effected by payment at maturity or pursuant to any mandatory sinking
         fund payment or any mandatory prepayment provision.

                  SECTION 10.06. Statement by Officers as to Default. The
Company will deliver to the Trustee, on or before a date not more than four
months after the end of each fiscal year (which at the date hereof is December
31) of the Company ending after the date hereof, a brief certificate from the
principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting
officer as to his knowledge of the Company's compliance with all conditions and
covenants hereof, and, if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such
defaults and the nature thereof of which he may have knowledge. For purposes of
this Section 10.06 such compliance shall be determined without regard to any
period of grace or requirement of notice hereunder.

                  SECTION 10.07. Further Instruments and Acts. The Company will,
upon request of the Trustee, execute and deliver such further instruments and do
such further acts as may reasonably be necessary or proper to carry out more
effectually the purposes of this Indenture.

                                 ARTICLE ELEVEN

                            REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

                  SECTION 11.01. Applicability of Article. Securities of any
series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in
accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article.

                  SECTION 11.02. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The
right of the Company to elect to redeem any Securities of any series shall be
set forth in the terms of such Securities of such series established in
accordance with Section 3.01. In case of any redemption at the election of the
Company of less than all the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at
least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a
shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such
Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be
redeemed and shall deliver to the Trustee such documentation and records as
shall enable the Trustee to select the Securities to be redeemed pursuant to
Section 11.03. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the
expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such
Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee
with an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers' Certificate evidencing compliance
with such restriction.

                  SECTION 11.03. Selection by Trustee of Securities to be
Redeemed. If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the
particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 45 days
prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the outstanding Securities of
such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as may be
specified by the terms of such Securities or, if no such method is so specified,
by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may
provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal amount of

                                       40
<PAGE>

securities of such series; provided, however, that no such partial redemption
shall reduce the portion of the principal amount of such Security not redeemed
to less than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series.

                  The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of
the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities
selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

                  For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context
otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities
shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in
part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been
or is to be redeemed.

                  SECTION 11.04. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption
shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the Trustee to
the Holders of the Securities to be redeemed, 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 Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in
the Security Register.

                  All notices of redemption shall state:

                  (1) the Redemption Date,

                  (2) the Redemption Price,

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

                  (4) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will
         become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and, if
         applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after
         said date,

                  (5) the place or places where such Securities are to be
         surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, and

                  (6) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the
         case.

                  SECTION 11.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. On or before any
Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying
Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold
in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the
Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest
Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed
on that date.

                  SECTION 11.06. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice
of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed
shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price
therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall
default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such
Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for
redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the
Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the
Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated
Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders
of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at
the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their
terms and the provisions of Section 3.07.

                  If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid
upon surrender therefor, the Redemption Price shall, until paid, bear interest
from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security.

<PAGE>

                  SECTION 11.07. Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security which
is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment
therefore (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by,
or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to, the Company and the
Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or
Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination as requested by
such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the
unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

                                 ARTICLE TWELVE

                         REPAYMENT AT OPTION OF HOLDERS

                  SECTION 12.01. Applicability of Article. Repayment of
Securities of any series before their Stated Maturity at the option of Holders
thereof shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities and
(except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of
any series) in accordance with this Article.

                  SECTION 12.02. Repayment of Securities. Securities of any
series subject to repayment in whole or in part at the option of the Holders
thereof will, unless otherwise provided in the terms of such Securities, be
repaid at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, together with interest
thereon accrued to the Repayment Date specified in the terms of such Securities.
The Company covenants that on or before the Repayment Date the Company will
deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as
its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03)
an amount of money sufficient to pay the principal (or, if so provided by the
terms of the Securities of any series, a percentage of the principal) of, and
(except if the Repayment Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued
interest, if any, on, all the Securities or portions thereof, as the case may
be, to be repaid on such date.

                  SECTION 12.03. Exercise of Option. Securities of any series
subject to repayment at the option of the Holders thereof will contain an
"Option to Elect Repayment" form on the reverse of such Securities. To be repaid
at the option of the Holder, any Security so providing for such repayment, with
the "Option to Elect Repayment" form on the reverse of such Security duly
completed by the Holder, must be received by the Company at the Place of Payment
therefore specified in the terms of such Security (or at such other place or
places of which the Company shall from time to time notify the Holders of such
Securities) not earlier than 30 days nor later than 15 days prior to the
Repayment Date. If less than the entire principal amount of such Security is to
be repaid in accordance with the terms of such Security, the principal amount of
such Security to be repaid, in increments of $1,000 unless otherwise specified
in the terms of such Security, and the denomination or denominations of the
Security or Securities to be issued to the Holder for the portion of the
principal amount of such Security surrendered that is not to be repaid must be
specified. The principal amount of any Security providing for repayment at the
option of the Holder thereof may not be repaid in part if, following such
repayment, the unpaid principal amount of such Security would be less than the
minimum authorized denomination of Securities of the series of which such
Security to be repaid is a part. Except as otherwise may be provided by the
terms of any Security providing for repayment at the option of the Holder
thereof, exercise of the repayment option by the Holder shall be irrevocable
unless waived by the Company.

                  SECTION 12.04. When Securities Presented for Repayment Become
Due and Payable. If Securities of any series providing for repayment at the
option of the Holders thereof shall have been surrendered as provided in this
Article and as provided by the terms of such Securities, such Securities or the
portions thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid shall become due and payable
and shall be paid by the Company on the Repayment Date therein specified, and on
and after such Repayment Date (unless the Company shall default in the payment
of such Securities on such Repayment Date) interest on such Securities or the
portions thereof, as the case may be, shall cease to accrue.

<PAGE>

                  SECTION 12.05. Securities Repaid in Part. Upon surrender of
any Security which is to be repaid in part only, the Company shall execute and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security,
without service charge and at the expense of the Company, a new Security or
Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination specified by the
Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the
portion of the principal of such Security so surrendered which is not to be
repaid.

                                ARTICLE THIRTEEN

                                  SINKING FUNDS

                  SECTION 13.01. Applicability of Article. The provisions of
this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of
Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section
3.01 for Securities of such series.

                  The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by
the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a "mandatory
sinking fund payment", and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided
for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an
"optional sinking fund payment". If provided for by the terms of Securities of
any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to
reduction as provided in Section 13.02. Each sinking fund payment shall be
applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the
terms of Securities of such series.

                  SECTION 13.02. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with
Securities. The Company may (1) deliver to the Trustee Outstanding Securities of
a series (other than any previously called for redemption) theretofore purchased
or otherwise acquired by the Company and (2) receive credit for Securities of a
series which have been previously delivered to the Trustee by the Company or for
Securities of a series which have been redeemed either at the election of the
Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of
permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such
Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund
payment with respect to the Securities of the same series required to be made
pursuant to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such
Series, provided that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such
Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the
Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation
of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced
accordingly.

                  SECTION 13.03. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. Not
less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of
Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series
pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to
be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be
satisfied by delivering or crediting Securities of that series pursuant to
Section 13.02 (which Securities will, if not previously delivered, accompany
such certificate) and whether the Company intends to exercise its right to make
a permitted optional sinking fund payment with respect to such series. Such
certificate shall be irrevocable and upon its delivery the Company shall be
obligated to make the cash payment or payments therein referred to, if any, on
or before the next succeeding sinking fund payment date. In the case of the
failure of the Company to deliver such certificate, the sinking fund payment due
on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date for that series shall be paid
entirely in cash and shall be sufficient to redeem the principal amount of such
Securities subject to a mandatory sinking fund payment without the option to
deliver or credit Securities as provided in Section 13.02 and without the right
to make any optional sinking fund payment, if any, with respect to such series.

                  Not more than 60 days before each such sinking fund payment
date, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking
fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.03 and cause notice of
the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the
Company in the manner provided in Section 11.04. Such notice having been duly
given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the
manner stated in Sections 11.06 and 11.07.

                                       43
<PAGE>

                  Prior to any sinking fund payment date, the Company shall pay
to the Trustee in cash a sum equal to any interest accrued to the date fixed for
redemption of Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed on such sinking fund
payment date pursuant to this Section 13.03.

                                ARTICLE FOURTEEN

                       DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

                  SECTION 14.01. Applicability of Article; Company's Option to
Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. Except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series, defeasance of the
Securities of a series under Section 14.02, or covenant defeasance of a series
under Section 14.03 shall be made in accordance with the terms of such
Securities and in accordance with this Article.

                  SECTION 14.02. Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company's
exercise of the above option applicable to this Section, the Company shall be
deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to the
Outstanding Securities of such series on the date the conditions set forth below
are satisfied (hereinafter, "defeasance"). For this purpose, such defeasance
means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire
indebtedness represented by the Outstanding Securities of such series, which
shall thereafter be deemed to be "Outstanding" only for the purposes of Section
14.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (A) and (B) below,
and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and this
Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the
expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the
same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated
or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of Outstanding Securities of
such series to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 14.04
and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Securities when
such payments are due, (B) the Company's obligations with respect to such
Securities under Sections 2.05, 3.05, 3.06, 10.02 and 10.03, (C) the rights,
powers, trusts, duties, and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (D) this
Article Fourteen. Subject to compliance with this Article Fourteen, the Company
may exercise its option under this Section 14.02 notwithstanding the prior
exercise of its option under Section 14.03 with respect to the Securities of
such series.

                  SECTION 14.03. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company's
exercise of the above option applicable to this Section, the Company shall be
released from its obligations under Sections 8.03, 10.04 and 10.05, and, if
specified pursuant to Section 3.01, the Company shall be released from its
obligations under any other covenant, with respect to the Outstanding Securities
of such series on and after the date the conditions set forth below are
satisfied (hereinafter, "covenant defeasance"), and the Securities of such
series shall thereafter be deemed to be not "Outstanding" for the purposes of
any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the
consequences of any thereof) in connection with Section 8.03, 10.04 or 10.05, or
such other covenant, but shall continue to be deemed "Outstanding" for all other
purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with
respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series, the Company may omit to
comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or
limitation set forth in any such Section or such other covenant, whether
directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such
Section or such other covenant or by reason of any reference in any such Section
or such other covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document
and such omission to comply shall not constitute a default or an Event of
Default under subsection 5.01(4) or subsection 5.01(7) of this Indenture, as the
case may be, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and
such Securities shall be unaffected thereby.

                  SECTION 14.04. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to application of either
Section 14.02 or Section 14.03 to the Outstanding Securities of such series:

                                       44
<PAGE>

                  (1) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to
         be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the
         requirements of Section 6.07 who shall agree to comply with the
         provisions of this Article Fourteen applicable to it) as trust funds in
         trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically
         pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the
         Holders of such Securities, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S.
         Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal
         and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will
         provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment,
         money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the
         opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
         accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to
         the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the
         Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, (i) the
         principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the
         Outstanding Securities of such series on the Stated Maturity of such
         principal or installments of principal or interest and (ii) any
         mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments applicable to the
         Outstanding Securities of such series on the day on which such payments
         are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and
         of such Securities. For this purpose, "U.S. Government Obligations"
         means securities that are (x) direct obligations of the United States
         of America for the payment of which its full faith and credit is
         pledged or (y) obligations of a person controlled or supervised by and
         acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America
         the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and
         credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either
         case, are not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer
         thereof, and shall also include a depository receipt issued by a bank
         (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
         amended) as custodian with respect to any such U.S. Government
         Obligation or a specific payment of principal of or interest on any
         such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian for the account
         of the holder of such depository receipt, provided that (except as
         required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction
         from the amount payable to the holder of such depository receipt from
         any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government
         Obligation or the specific payment of principal of or interest on the
         U.S. Government Obligation evidenced by such depository receipt.

                  (2) No Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of
         time or both would become an Event of Default with respect to the
         Securities of such series shall have occurred and be continuing on the
         date of such deposit or, insofar as subsections 5.01(5) and (6) are
         concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after
         the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall
         not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period).

                  (3) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not cause the
         Trustee for the Securities of such series to have a conflicting
         interest as defined in the Trust Indenture Act with respect to any
         securities of the Company.

                  (4) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in
         a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture
         or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a
         party or by which it is bound.

                  (5) In the case of an election under Section 14.02, the
         company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
         stating that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been
         published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (y) since the
         date of the first issuance by the Company of Securities pursuant to
         this instrument, there has been a change in the applicable Federal
         income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon
         such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding
         Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for
         Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be
         subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner
         and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance
         had not occurred.

                                       45
<PAGE>

                  (6) In the case of an election under Section 14.03, the
         Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to
         the effect that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such
         series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax
         purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to
         Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the
         same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had
         not occurred.

                  (7) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, such
         defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with
         any additional or substitute terms, conditions or limitations which may
         be imposed on the Company in connection therewith pursuant to Section
         3.01.

                  (8) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
         Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
         conditions precedent provided for relating to either the defeasance
         under Section 14.02 or the covenant defeasance under Section 14.03 (as
         the case may be) have been complied with.

                  SECTION 14.05. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations
to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to the provisions
of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money and U.S. Government
Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant
to Section 14.04 in respect of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall
be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions
of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or
through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent)
as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due
and to become due thereon in respect of principal (and premium, if any) and
interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required by law.

                  The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any
tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 14.04 or the principal and interest
received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which
by law is for the account of the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such
series.

                  Anything in this Article Fourteen to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company, from time to
time upon Company Request, any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it
as provided in Section 14.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized
firm of independent public accountants certification thereof delivered to the
Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be
deposited to effect an equivalent "defeasance" or "covenant defeasance".

                  SECTION 14.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee is unable to
apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 14.05
with respect to the Securities of any series by reason of any legal proceeding
or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority
enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the
obligations of the Company under this Indenture and such Securities shall be
revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred with respect to the
Securities of such series pursuant to Section 14.04 until such time as the
Trustee is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in
accordance with Section 14.05.

                                 ARTICLE FIFTEEN

                           SUBORDINATION OF SECURITIES

                  SECTION 15.01. Applicability of Article; Agreement to
Subordinate. In the event a series of Securities is designated as subordinated
pursuant to Section 3.01 ("Subordinated Securities") and except as otherwise
provided in a supplemental indenture or pursuant to Section 3.01, the Company,
for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees, and each Holder of
Subordinated Securities by his acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and
agrees, that the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest,
if any, on each and all of the Subordinated Securities is hereby expressly
subordinated, to the extent and in the manner set forth in this Article, in
right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness.

                  SECTION 15.02. Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness. (a)
In the event of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, or any receivership,
liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceedings, relative to the
Company or to its creditors, as such, or to its property, and in the event of
any proceedings for voluntary liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of
the Company, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, and in the event
of any execution sale, then the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled
to receive payment in full of the principal and premium, if any, thereof and
interest due thereon (including without limitation, except to the extent, if
any, prohibited by mandatory provisions of law, post petition interest in any
such proceedings) in money before the Holders of Subordinated Securities are
entitled to receive any payment on account of the principal of, premium, if any,
or interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Subordinated Securities, and to
that end the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive for
application in payment thereof any payment or distribution of any kind or
character, whether in cash or property or securities, which may be payable or
deliverable in connection with any such proceedings or sale in respect of the
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Subordinated Securities other
than securities of the Company as reorganized or readjusted or securities of the
Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or
readjustment the payment of which is subordinate, at least to the extent
provided in this Article Fifteen with respect to the Subordinated Securities, to
the payment of all indebtedness of the nature of Senior Indebtedness, provided
that the rights of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness are not altered by
such reorganization or readjustment;

         (b) In the event and during the continuation of any default in payment
of any Senior Indebtedness or if any event of default, as therein defined, shall
exist and all grace periods with respect thereto shall have expired, under any
Senior Indebtedness or any agreement pursuant to which any Senior Indebtedness
is issued, no payment of the principal of, premium if any, or interest on the
Subordinated Securities shall be made and the Company covenants that it will,
upon ascertaining any such default or event of default, provide written notice
to the Trustee of such default or event of default;

         (c) In the event that the Subordinated Securities of any series are
declared due and payable before their expressed maturity because of the
occurrence of an Event of Default (under circumstances when the provisions of
subsection (a) of this Section 15.02 shall not be applicable), the holders of
all Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive payment in full in money of
such Senior Indebtedness before such Holders of Subordinated Securities are
entitled to receive any payment on account of the principal of or interest on
the Subordinated Securities; and

         (d) No holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be prejudiced in his right
to enforce subordination of the Subordinated Securities by any act or failure to
act on the part of the Company.

                  SECTION 15.03. Payments and Distributions. In the event that,
notwithstanding the provisions of Section 15.02, any payment or distribution of
assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or
securities (other than securities of the Company as reorganized or readjusted or
securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of
reorganization or readjustment

                                       47
<PAGE>
the payment of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in this
Article Fifteen with respect to the Subordinated Securities, to the payment of
all indebtedness of the nature of Senior Indebtedness, provided that the rights
of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness are not altered by such reorganization
or readjustment) shall be received by the Holders of Subordinated Securities or
by the Trustee for their benefit in connection with any proceedings or sale
referred to in subsection (a) of Section 15.02 before all Senior Indebtedness is
paid in full in money, such payment or distribution shall be paid over to the
trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee, agent
or other Person making payment or distribution of assets of the Company, if any,
otherwise such payment or distribution shall be paid over to the holders of such
Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or to the trustee
or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of
such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably according to the
aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of the Senior Indebtedness held or
represented by each, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness
remaining unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full
in money, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the
holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

                  From and after the payment in full in money of all Senior
Indebtedness, the Holders of Subordinated Securities (together with the holders
of any other indebtedness of the Company which is subordinate in right of
payment to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, which is not
subordinate in right of payment to the Subordinated Securities and which by its
terms grants such right of subrogation to the holder thereof) shall be
subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive
payments or distributions of assets or securities of the Company applicable to
the Senior Indebtedness until the Subordinated Securities shall be paid in full,
and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no such payments or distributions to
the holders of Senior Indebtedness of assets or securities, which otherwise
would have been payable or distributable to Holders of Subordinated Securities,
shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior
Indebtedness and the Holders, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on
account of the Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of
this Article Fifteen are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the
relative rights of the Holders, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness, on the other hand, and nothing contained in this Article Fifteen
or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Subordinated Securities is intended to
or shall impair as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of
Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of Subordinated Securities, the obligation
of the Company, which is unconditional and absolute, to pay to the Holders of
Subordinated Securities the principal of and interest on the Subordinated
Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with
their terms, or to affect the relative rights of the Holders of Subordinated
Securities and creditors of the Company other than the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the
Holder of any Subordinated Security from exercising all remedies otherwise
permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture subject to the
rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness, under Section 15.02, to receive
cash, property or securities of the Company otherwise payable or deliverable to
the Holders of the Subordinated Securities.

                  Upon any distribution or payment in connection with any
proceedings or sale referred to in subsection (a) of Section 15.02, the Trustee,
subject as between the Trustee and the Holders of Subordinated Securities to the
provisions of Section 1.04 hereof, shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate
of the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making any distribution or
payment to the Trustee, the amount of such Senior Indebtedness or the amount
payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other
facts pertinent thereto or to this Article Fifteen. In the event that the
Trustee determines, in good faith, that further evidence is required with
respect to the right of any person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to
participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Section 15.03, the
Trustee may request such person to furnish evidence to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such
person, as to the extent to which such person is entitled to participate in such
payment or distribution, and as to other facts pertinent to the rights of such
person under this Section 15.03, and if such evidence is not furnished, the
Trustee may defer any payment to such person pending judicial determination as
to the right of such person to receive such payment.

                  The Trustee, however, shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary
duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and shall not be liable to any such
holders if it shall in good faith pay over or distribute

                                       48
<PAGE>

to Holders of Subordinated Securities or the Company or any other person moneys
or assets to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by
virtue of Article Fifteen of this Indenture or otherwise.

                  SECTION 15.04. Payments by the Company. Nothing contained in
this Article Fifteen or elsewhere in this Indenture, or in any of the
Subordinated Securities, shall prevent at any time, (a) the Company from making
payments at any time of principal of or interest on the Subordinated Securities,
except under the conditions described in Section 15.02 or during the pendency of
any proceedings or sale therein referred to, provided, however, that payments of
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Subordinated Securities shall
only be made by the Company within three business days of the due dates for such
payments or (b) the application by the Trustee of any moneys deposited with it
hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of, premium, if any,
or interest on the Subordinated Securities, if at the time of such deposit the
Trustee did not have written notice in accordance with Section 15.06 of any
event prohibiting the making of such deposit by the Company or if in the event
of redemption, the Trustee did not have such written notice prior to the time
that the notice of redemption pursuant to Section 11.04 was given (which notice
of redemption shall in no event be given more than 60 days prior to the date
fixed for redemption).

                  SECTION 15.05. Appointment of the Trustee by Holders. Each
Holder by his acceptance of a Subordinated Security authorizes and directs the
Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to
acknowledge or effectuate the subordination as provided in this Article Fifteen
and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes,
including, in the event of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or
reorganization of the Company (whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership
proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise)
tending towards liquidation of the business and assets of the Company, the
immediate filing of a claim for the unpaid balance of such Holder's Subordinated
Securities in the form required in said proceedings and cause said claim to be
approved.

                  SECTION 15.06. Notice to Trustee. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Article Fifteen or any other provisions of this Indenture,
the Trustee shall not be charged with the knowledge of the existence of any
facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of moneys to or by the
Trustee, unless and until the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof
from the Company or from the holder of, or the representative of any class of,
Senior Indebtedness, together with proof satisfactory to the Trustee of such
holding of Senior Indebtedness or of the authority of such representative;
provided, however, that if at least three business days prior to the date upon
which by the terms hereof any such monies may become payable for any purpose
(including, without limitation, the payment of either the cash amount payable at
maturity or interest on any Subordinated Security) the Trustee shall not have
received with respect to such monies the notice provided for in this Section
15.06, then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such monies and to apply
the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected
by any notice to the contrary, which may be received by it on or after such
three business days prior to such date.

                  SECTION 15.07. Rights of Trustee. The Trustee shall be
entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article Fifteen with respect to any
Senior Indebtedness which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as
any other holder of Senior Indebtedness.

                  SECTION 15.08. Paying Agent. In case at any time any paying
agent other than the Trustee shall be appointed by the Company and be then
acting hereunder, the term "Trustee" as used in this Article Fifteen shall in
such case (unless the context shall otherwise require) be construed as extending
to and including such paying agent within its meaning as fully for all intents
and purposes as if such paying agent were named in this Article Fifteen in place
of the Trustee.

of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any
assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that this
Indenture and the obligations issued hereunder are solely corporate obligations
of the Company, and that no such personal liability whatever shall attach to, or
is or shall be incurred by, the incorporators, stockholders, officers, directors
or employees, as such, of the Company or of any successor corporation, or any of
them, because of the creation of the indebtedness hereby authorized, or under or
by reason of the obligations, covenants or agreements contained in this
Indenture or in any of the Securities or implied therefrom; and that any and all
such personal liability, either at common law or in equity or by constitution or
statute, of, and any and all such rights and claims against, every such
incorporator, stockholder, officer, director or employee, as such, because of
the creation of the indebtedness hereby authorized, or under or by reason of the
obligations, covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture or in any of
the Securities or implied therefrom, are hereby expressly waived and released as

the issue of such Securities.

                                ARTICLE SEVENTEEN

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

                  SECTION 17.01. Successors and Assigns of Company Bound by
Indenture. All the covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements in this
Indenture contained by or in behalf of the Company shall bind its respective
successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

                  SECTION 17.02. Acts of Board, Committee or Officer of
Successor Corporation Valid. Any act or proceeding by any provision of this
Indenture authorized or required to be done or performed by any board, committee
or officer of the Company shall and may be done and performed with like force
and effect by the like board, committee or officer of any corporation that shall
at that time be the successor of the Company.

                  SECTION 17.03. Required Notices or Demands. Any notice or
demand which by any provision of this Indenture is required or permitted to be
given or served by the Trustee or by the Holders to or on the Company may,
except as otherwise provided in Section 5.01(4), be given or served by being
deposited postage prepaid in a post office letter box in the United States
addressed (until another address is filed by the Company with the Trustee), as
follows: to the Company, Ford Motor Company, One American Road, Dearborn,
Michigan 48126, Attention: Treasurer. Any notice, direction, request or demand
by the Company or by any Holder to or upon the Trustee may be given or made, for
all purposes, by being deposited postage prepaid in a post office letter box in
the United States addressed to the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. Any
notice required or permitted to be mailed to a Holder by the Company or the
Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture shall be deemed to be
properly mailed by being deposited postage prepaid in a post office letter box
in the United States addressed to such Holder at the address of such Holder as
shown on the Security Register. In any case, where notice to Holders is given by
mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so
mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice
with respect to other Holders.

                  Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such
notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice,
either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of
such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but
such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action
taken in reliance upon such waiver.

                  In case, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in
regular mail service, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to
Holders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of
this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory
to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

                  SECTION 17.04. Indenture and Securities to be Construed in
Accordance with the Laws of the State of New York. This Indenture and each
Security shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of
New York, and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of said State, without regards to its principals of conflicts of
laws.

                  SECTION 17.05. Indenture May be Executed in Counterparts. This
Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be
an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same
instrument.
