price and the conversion period;

          (15) if other than the principal amount thereof, the portion of the

     The Securities of any series and the Trustee's certificate of
authentication to be borne by such Securities shall be substantially of the
tenor and purport as set forth in one or more indentures supplemental hereto or
as provided in a Board Resolution of the Company and as set forth in an
Officers' Certificate of the Company and may have such letters, numbers or other
marks of identification or designation and such legends or endorsements printed,
lithographed or engraved thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and as are
not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, or as may be required to
comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with
any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which Securities of that series
may be listed, or to conform to usage.

     SECTION 2.03  Denominations: Provisions for Payment.

     The Securities shall be issuable as registered Securities and in the
denominations of one thousand U.S. dollars ($1,000) or any integral multiple
thereof, subject to Section 2.01(a)(10). The Securities of a particular series
shall bear interest payable on the dates and at the rate specified with respect
to that series. Unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.01, the
principal of and the interest on the Securities of any series, as well as any
premium thereon in case of redemption thereof prior to maturity, shall be
payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America that at the time
is legal tender for public and private debt, at the office or agency of the
Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and
State of New York. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.
Unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.01, interest on the Securities
shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day
months.

     The interest installment on any Security that is payable, and is punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities of that
series shall be paid to the Person in whose name said Security (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the regular
record date for such interest installment. In the event that any Security of a
particular series or portion thereof is called for redemption and the redemption
date is subsequent to a regular record date with respect to any Interest Payment
Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date, interest on such Security will be
paid upon presentation and surrender of such Security as provided in Section
3.03.

                                       7
<PAGE>

     Any interest on any Security that is payable, but is not punctually paid or
duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities of the same
series (herein called "Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable
to the registered holder on the relevant regular record date by virtue of having
been such holder; and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by the Company, at
its election, as provided in clause (1) or clause (2) below:

     (1)  The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on Securities
to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor
Securities) are registered at the close of business on a special record date for
the payment of such Defaulted Interest, 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 such Security and the date of the
proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the
Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in
respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to
the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such
money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee
shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which
shall not be more than 15 nor 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 Securityholder at his or her address as it appears in the Security
Register (as hereinafter defined), 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 mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted
Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their
respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such special record date
and shall be no longer payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

     (2)  The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on any
Securities 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.

     Unless otherwise set forth in a Board Resolution of the Company or one or
more indentures supplemental hereto establishing the terms of any series of
Securities pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof, the term "regular record date" as
used in this Section with respect to a series of Securities with respect to any
Interest Payment Date for such series shall mean either the fifteenth day of the
month immediately preceding the month in which an Interest Payment Date
established for such series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof shall occur, if such
Interest Payment Date is the first day of a month, or the last day of the month
immediately preceding the month in which an Interest Payment Date established
for such  series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof shall occur, if such Interest
Payment Date is the fifteenth day of a month, whether or not such date is a
Business Day.

     Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security of a
series delivered under this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in
lieu of any other Security of such series shall

                                       8
<PAGE>

carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were
carried by such other Security.

     SECTION 2.04  Execution and Authentication.

     The Securities shall be signed on behalf of the Company by its President,
or one of its Vice Presidents, or its Treasurer, or one of its Assistant
Treasurers, or its Secretary, or one of its Assistant Secretaries, under its
corporate seal attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries.
Signatures may be in the form of a manual or facsimile signature.  The Company
may use the facsimile signature of any Person who shall have been a President or
Vice President thereof, or of any Person who shall have been a Secretary or
Assistant Secretary thereof, notwithstanding the fact that at the time the
Securities shall be authenticated and delivered or disposed of such Person shall
have ceased to be the President or a Vice President, or the Secretary or an
Assistant Secretary, of the Company. The seal of the Company may be in the form
of a facsimile of such seal and may be impressed, affixed, imprinted or
otherwise reproduced on the Securities.  The Securities may contain such
notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or
usage.  Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication by the
Trustee.

     A Security shall not be valid until authenticated manually by an authorized
signatory of the Trustee, or by an Authenticating Agent. Such signature shall be
conclusive evidence that the Security so authenticated has been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the holder is entitled to the
benefits of this Indenture.

     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 written order of the
Company for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, signed by its
President or any Vice President and its Secretary or any Assistant Secretary,
and the Trustee in accordance with such written order shall authenticate and
deliver such Securities.

     In authenticating such Securities and accepting the additional
responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the
Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be
fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the form and
terms thereof have been established in conformity with the provisions of this
Indenture.

     The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the
issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's
own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or
otherwise in a manner that is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

     SECTION 2.05  Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

     (a)  Securities of any series may be exchanged upon presentation thereof at
the office or agency of the Company designated for such purpose in the Borough
of Manhattan, the City and State of New York, for other Securities of such
series of authorized denominations, and for a like aggregate principal amount,
upon payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge
in relation thereto, all as provided in this Section. In respect of any
Securities so surrendered

                                       9
<PAGE>

for exchange, the Company shall execute, the Trustee shall authenticate and such
office or agency shall deliver in exchange therefor the Security or Securities
of the same series that the Securityholder making the exchange shall be entitled
to receive, bearing numbers not contemporaneously outstanding.

     (b)  The Company shall keep, or cause to be kept, at its office or agency
designated for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of
New York, or such other location designated by the Company a register or
registers (herein referred to as the "Security Register") in which, subject to
such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall register the
Securities and the transfers of Securities as in this Article provided and which
at all reasonable times shall be open for inspection by the Trustee. The
registrar for the purpose of registering Securities and transfer of Securities
as herein provided shall be appointed as authorized by Board Resolution (the
"Security Registrar").

     Upon surrender for transfer of any Security at the office or agency of the
Company designated for such purpose, the Company shall execute, the Trustee
shall authenticate and such office or agency shall deliver in the name of the
transferee or transferees a new Security or Securities of the same series as the
Security presented for a like aggregate principal amount.

     All Securities presented or surrendered for exchange or registration of
transfer, as provided in this Section, shall be accompanied (if so required by
the Company or the Security Registrar) by a written instrument or instruments of
transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company or the Security Registrar, duly
executed by the registered holder or by such holder's duly authorized attorney
in writing.

     (c)  No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of
transfer of Securities, or issue of new Securities in case of partial redemption
of any series, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge in relation thereto, other than exchanges
pursuant to Section 2.06, the second paragraph of Section 3.03 and Section 9.04
not involving any transfer.

     (d)  The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, exchange or register
the transfer of any Securities during a period beginning at the opening of
business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of less
than all the Outstanding Securities of the same series and ending at the close
of business on the day of such mailing, nor (ii) to register the transfer of or
exchange any Securities of any series or portions thereof called for redemption.
The provisions of this Section 2.05 are, with respect to any Global Security,
subject to Section 2.11 hereof.

     SECTION 2.06  Temporary Securities.

     Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company
may execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary
Securities (printed, lithographed or typewritten) of any authorized
denomination.  Such temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of
the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, but with such
omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary
Securities, all as may be determined by the Company.  Every temporary Security
of any series shall be executed by the Company and be authenticated by the
Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with
like effect, as the

                                       10
<PAGE>

definitive Securities of such series. Without unnecessary delay the Company will
execute and will furnish definitive Securities of such series and thereupon any
or all temporary Securities of such series may be surrendered in exchange
therefor (without charge to the holders), at the office or agency of the Company
designated for the purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of
New York, and the Trustee shall authenticate and such office or agency shall
deliver in exchange for such temporary Securities an equal aggregate principal
amount of definitive Securities of such series, unless the Company advises the
Trustee to the effect that definitive Securities need not be executed and
furnished until further notice from the Company. Until so exchanged, the
temporary Securities of such series shall be entitled to the same benefits under
this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series authenticated and
delivered hereunder.

     SECTION 2.07  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Securities.

     In case any temporary or definitive Security shall become mutilated or be
destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company (subject to the next succeeding sentence)
shall execute, and upon the Company's request the Trustee (subject as aforesaid)
shall authenticate and deliver, a new Security of the same series, bearing a
number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the
mutilated Security, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Security so
destroyed, lost or stolen.  In every case the applicant for a substituted
Security shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity
as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, and, in every case of
destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company and
the Trustee evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of
the applicant's Security and of the ownership thereof. The Trustee may
authenticate any such substituted Security and deliver the same upon the written
request or authorization of any officer of the Company.  Upon the issuance of
any substituted Security, 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.  In case any Security that has matured or is about
to mature shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company
may, instead of issuing a substitute Security, pay or authorize the payment of
the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Security)
if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee
such security or indemnity as they may require to save them harmless, and, in
case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence to the satisfaction of the Company
and the Trustee of the destruction, loss or theft of such Security and of the
ownership thereof.

     Every replacement Security issued pursuant to the provisions of this
Section shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company
whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be found
at any time, or be enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the
benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other
Securities of the same series duly issued hereunder.  All Securities shall be
held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are
exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed,
lost or stolen Securities, and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) any and all
other rights or remedies, notwithstanding any law or statute existing or
hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment of
negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

     SECTION 2.08  Cancellation.

                                       11
<PAGE>

     All Securities surrendered for the purpose of payment, redemption, exchange
or registration of transfer shall, if surrendered to the Company or any paying
agent, be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, or, if surrendered to the
Trustee, shall be canceled by it, and no Securities shall be issued in lieu
thereof except as expressly required or permitted by any of the provisions of
this Indenture. On request of the Company at the time of such surrender, the
Trustee shall deliver to the Company canceled Securities held by the Trustee. In
the absence of such request the Trustee may dispose of canceled Securities in
accordance with its standard procedures and deliver a certificate of disposition
to the Company. If the Company shall otherwise acquire any of the Securities,
however, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of
the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

     SECTION 2.09  Benefits of Indenture.

     Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall
give or be construed to give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and
the holders of the Securities (and, with respect to the provisions of Article
Fourteen, the holders of senior indebtedness) any legal or equitable right,
remedy or claim under or in respect of this Indenture, or under any covenant,
condition or provision herein contained; all such covenants, conditions and
provisions being for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and of the holders
of the Securities (and, with respect to the provisions of Article Fourteen, the
holders of senior indebtedness).

     SECTION 2.10  Authenticating Agent.

     So long as any of the Securities of any series remain Outstanding there may
be an Authenticating Agent for any or all such series of Securities which the
Trustee shall have the right to appoint. Said Authenticating Agent shall be
authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such
series issued upon exchange, transfer or partial redemption thereof, and
Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture
and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the
Trustee hereunder. All references in this Indenture to the authentication of
Securities by the Trustee shall be deemed to include authentication by an
Authenticating Agent for such series. Each Authenticating Agent shall be
acceptable to the Company and shall be a corporation that has a combined capital
and surplus, as most recently reported or determined by it, sufficient under the
laws of any jurisdiction under which it is organized or in which it is doing
business to conduct a trust business, and that is otherwise authorized under
such laws to conduct such business and is subject to supervision or examination
by Federal or State authorities. If at any time any Authenticating Agent shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with these provisions, it shall resign
immediately.

     Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of
resignation to the Trustee and to the Company.  The Trustee may at any time (and
upon request by the Company shall) terminate the agency of any Authenticating
Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and
to the Company.  Upon resignation, termination or cessation of eligibility of
any Authenticating Agent, the Trustee may appoint an eligible successor
Authenticating Agent acceptable to the Company. Any successor Authenticating
Agent, upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder, shall become vested with
all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder as if originally
named as an Authenticating Agent pursuant hereto.

     SECTION 2.11  Global Securities.

     (a)  If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 2.01 that the
Securities of a particular series are to be issued as a Global Security, then
the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with Section
2.04, authenticate and deliver, a Global Security that (i) shall represent, and
shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of,
such of the Outstanding Securities of such series, as shall be specified therein
and that the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities represented thereby may
from time to time be increased or reduced to reflect exchanges, (ii) shall be
registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, (iii) shall be
delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary or pursuant to the Depositary's
instruction and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect:
"Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.11 of the Indenture, this Security
may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only to another nominee of the
Depositary or to a successor Depositary or to a nominee of such successor
Depositary."  Any endorsement of a Security in global form to reflect the
amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of Outstanding Securities
represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee in such manner and upon
instructions given by such Person or Persons as shall be specified therein or in
the written request signed in the name of the Company, by two officers thereof
to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.04 or Section 2.06.

     (b)  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05, the Global Security of
a series may be transferred, in whole but not in part and in the manner provided
in Section 2.05, only to another nominee of the Depositary for such series, or
to a successor Depositary for such series selected or approved by the Company or
to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

     (c)  If at any time the Depositary for a series of the Securities notifies
the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such
series or if at any time the Depositary for such series shall no longer be
registered or in good standing under the Exchange Act, or other applicable
statute or regulation, and a successor Depositary 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, this Section 2.11 shall
no longer be applicable to the Securities of such series and the Company will
execute, and subject to Section 2.05, the Trustee will authenticate and deliver
the 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 2.11 shall no longer apply to the Securities
of such series. In such event the Company will execute and subject to Section
2.05, the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers' Certificate evidencing such
determination by the Company, will authenticate and deliver the 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. Upon the exchange of the Global Security for such Securities in
definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, the
Global Security shall be canceled by the Trustee. Such Securities in definitive
registered form issued in exchange for the Global Security pursuant to this
Section 2.11(c) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized
denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or
indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee.  The Trustee
shall deliver such Securities to the Depositary for delivery to the Persons in
whose names such Securities are so registered.

                                  ARTICLE III

             REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES AND SINKING FUND PROVISIONS

     SECTION 3.01  Redemption.

     The Company may redeem the Securities of any series issued hereunder on and
after the dates and in accordance with the terms established for such series
pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof.

     SECTION 3.02  Notice of Redemption.

     (a)  In case the Company shall desire to exercise such right to redeem all
or, as the case may be, a portion of the Securities of any series in accordance
with the right reserved so to do, the Company shall, or shall cause the Trustee
to, give notice of such redemption to holders of the Securities of such series
to be redeemed by mailing, first class postage prepaid, a notice of such
redemption not less than 30 days and not more than 90 days before the date fixed
for redemption of that series to such holders at their last addresses as they
shall appear upon the Security Register unless a shorter period is specified in
the Securities to be redeemed.  Any notice that is mailed in the manner herein
provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not
the registered holder receives the notice. In any case, failure duly to give
such notice to the holder of any Security of any series designated for
redemption in whole or in part, or any defect in the notice, shall not affect
the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities of
such series or any other series. 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 Officers' Certificate evidencing compliance with any
such restriction.

     Each such notice of redemption shall specify the date fixed for redemption
and the redemption price (or the manner of calculation thereof) at which
Securities of that series are to be redeemed, and shall state that payment of
the redemption price of such Securities to be redeemed will be made at the
office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State
of New York, upon presentation and surrender of such Securities, that interest
accrued to the date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in said
notice, that from and after said date interest will cease to accrue and that the
redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case. If less than all the
Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the notice to the holders of
Securities of that series to be redeemed in whole or in part shall specify the
particular Securities to be so redeemed. In case any Security is to be redeemed
in part only, the notice that relates to such Security shall state the portion
of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, and shall state that on and
after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or
Securities of such series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion
thereof will be issued.

     (b)  If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the
Company shall give the Trustee at least 45 days' notice in advance of the date
fixed for redemption as to the aggregate principal amount of Securities of the
series to be redeemed, and thereupon the Trustee shall select, by lot or in such
other manner as it shall deem appropriate and fair in its discretion and that
may provide for the selection of a portion or portions (equal to one thousand
U.S. dollars ($1,000) or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount
of such Securities of a denomination larger than

                                       14
<PAGE>

$1,000, the Securities to be redeemed and shall thereafter promptly notify the
Company in writing of the numbers of the Securities to be redeemed, in whole or
in part.

     The Company may, if and whenever it shall so elect, by delivery of
instructions signed on its behalf by its Chairman of the Board of Directors, the
Chief Executive Officer, any Executive Vice President or any Vice President,
instruct the Trustee or any paying agent to call all or any part of the
Securities of a particular series for redemption and to give notice of
redemption in the manner set forth in this Section, such notice to be in the
name of the Company or its own name as the Trustee or such paying agent may deem
advisable. In any case in which notice of redemption is to be given by the
Trustee or any such paying agent, the Company shall deliver or cause to be
delivered to, or permit to remain with, the Trustee or such paying agent, as the
case may be, such Security Register, transfer books or other records, or
suitable copies or extracts therefrom, sufficient to enable the Trustee or such
paying agent to give any notice by mail that may be required under the
provisions of this Section.

     SECTION 3.03  Payment Upon Redemption.

     (a)  If the giving of notice of redemption shall have been completed as
above provided, the Securities or portions of Securities of the series to be
redeemed specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the date and
at the place stated in such notice at the applicable redemption price, together
with interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption and interest on such
Securities or portions of Securities shall cease to accrue on and after the date
fixed for redemption, unless the Company shall default in the payment of such
redemption price and accrued interest with respect to any such Security or
portion thereof. On presentation and surrender of such Securities on or after
the date fixed for redemption at the place of payment specified in the notice,
said Securities shall be paid and redeemed at the applicable redemption price
for such series, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for
redemption (but if the date fixed for redemption is an interest payment date,
the interest installment payable on such date shall be payable to the registered
holder at the close of business on the applicable record date pursuant to
Section 2.03).

     (b)  Upon presentation of any Security of such series that is to be
redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and the office or agency where the Security is presented shall
deliver to the holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security of
the same series of authorized denominations in principal amount equal to the
unredeemed portion of the Security so presented.

     SECTION 3.04  Sinking Fund.

     The provisions of Sections 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 shall be applicable to any
sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series, except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 2.01 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 3.05.  Each

                                       15
<PAGE>

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 3.05  Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

     The Company (i) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other than
any Securities previously called for redemption) and (ii) may apply as a credit
Securities of a series that 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 such 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 3.06  Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

     Not less than 45 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 the series, the portion thereof, if any,
that is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series
pursuant to Section 3.05 and the basis for such credit and will, together with
such Officers' Certificate, deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so
delivered.  Not less than 30 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 3.02 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 3.02.  Such notice having been duly given, the
redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner
stated in Section 3.03.

                                  ARTICLE IV

     SECTION 4.01  Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest.

     The Company will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal
of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities of that series at the
time and place and in the manner provided herein and established with respect to
such Securities.

     SECTION 4.02  Maintenance of Office or Agency.

     So long as any series of the Securities remain Outstanding, the Company
agrees to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and
State of New York, with respect to each such series and at such other location
or locations as may be designated as provided in this Section 4.02, where (i)
Securities of that series may be presented for payment, (ii) Securities of that
series may be presented as herein above authorized for registration of transfer
and exchange, and

                                       16
<PAGE>

(iii) notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of
that series and this Indenture may be given or served, such designation to
continue with respect to such office or agency until the Company shall, by
written notice signed by its Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief
Executive Officer, any Executive Vice President or a Vice President and
delivered to the trustee, designate some other office or agency for such
purposes or any of them. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any
such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the
address thereof, such presentations, notices and demands may be made or served
at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints
the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, notices and demands.

     SECTION 4.03  Paying Agents.

     (a)  If the Company shall appoint one or more paying agents for all or any
series of the Securities, other than the Trustee, the Company will cause each
such paying agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which
such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this
Section:

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

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

          (3)  that it will, at any time during the continuance of any failure
referred to in the preceding paragraph (a)(2) above, upon the written request of
the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such
paying agent; and

          (4)  that it will perform all other duties of paying agent as set
forth in this Indenture.

     (b)  If the Company shall act as its own paying agent with respect to any
series of the Securities, it will on or before each due date of the principal of
(and premium, if any) or interest on Securities of that series, set aside,
segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a
sum sufficient to pay such principal (and premium, if any)or interest so
becoming due on Securities of that series until such sums shall be paid to such
Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the
Trustee of such action, or any failure (by it or any other obligor on such
Securities) to take such action. 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 (and premium, if any) or interest on any Securities of that
series, deposit with the paying agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and
premium, if any) or interest 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 this action or failure so to act.

                                       17
<PAGE>

     (c)  Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, (i) the
agreement to hold sums in trust as provided in this Section is subject to the
provisions of Section 11.05, and (ii) the Company may at any time, for the
purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any
other purpose, pay, or 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 terms and conditions 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 4.04  Appointment to Fill Vacancy in Office of Trustee.

     The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in the office of
Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided in Section 7.10, a Trustee, so
that there shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder.

     SECTION 4.05  Statement by Officers as to Default.

     The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of
each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof, an Officers'
Certificate signed by its principal executive officer, principal financial
officer or principal accounting officer stating whether or not to the best
knowledge of the signer thereof the Company is in default in the performance and
observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture, and
if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature
and status thereof of which they may have knowledge.

Trustee may request in writing within 30 days after the receipt by the Company
of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not more

copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time
to time by rules and regulations prescribe) that the Company may be required to
file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange
Act; provided that, if the Company is not required to file information,

Trustee and the Commission, as the case may be, only such other information as
is required pursuant to Section 5.03(b) below.

     (b)  The Company covenants and agrees to file with the Trustee and the

                  REMEDIES OF THE TRUSTEE AND SECURITYHOLDERS
                              ON EVENT OF DEFAULT

     SECTION 6.01  Events of Default.

     (a)  Whenever used herein with respect to Securities of a particular
series, "Event of Default" means any one or more of the following events that
has occurred and is continuing:

          (1)  the Company defaults in the payment of any installment of
interest upon any of the Securities of that series, as and when the same shall
become due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days;
provided, however, that a valid extension of an interest payment period by the
Company in accordance with the terms of any indenture supplemental hereto, shall
not constitute a default in the payment of interest for this purpose;

          (2)  the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of (or
premium, if any, on) any of the Securities of that series as and when the same
shall become due and payable whether at maturity, upon redemption, by
declaration or otherwise, or in any payment required by any sinking or analogous
fund established with respect to that series; provided, however, that a valid
extension of the maturity of such Securities in accordance with the terms of any
indenture supplemental hereto shall not constitute a default in the payment of
principal or premium, if any;

          (3)  the Company fails to observe or perform any other of its
covenants or agreements with respect to that series contained in this Indenture
or otherwise established with respect to that series of Securities pursuant to
Section 2.01 hereof (other than a covenant or agreement that has been expressly
included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of one or more series of
Securities other than such series) for a period of 60 days after the date on
which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied and
stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder, shall have been
given to the Company by the Trustee, by registered or certified mail, or to the
Company and the Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of
the Securities of that series at the time Outstanding;

          (4)  the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any applicable
Bankruptcy Law (i) commences a voluntary case, (ii) consents to the entry of an
order for relief against it in an involuntary case, (iii) consents to the
appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property
or (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or

                                       20
<PAGE>

          (5)  a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order under any
applicable Bankruptcy Law that (i) is for relief against the Company in an
involuntary case, (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company for all or
substantially all of its property, or (iii) orders the liquidation of the
Company, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days.

     (b)  In each and every such case, unless the principal of all the
Securities of that series shall have already become due and payable, either the
Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of that series then Outstanding hereunder, by notice in writing to
the Company (and to the Trustee if given by such Securityholders), may declare
the principal (or, if the Securities of such series are Original Issue Discount
Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the
terms of such series) of all the Securities of that series to be due and payable
immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be
immediately due and payable, notwithstanding anything contained in this
Indenture or in the Securities of that series or established with respect to
that series pursuant to Section 2.01 to the contrary.

     (c)  At any time after the principal of the Securities of that series shall
have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the
payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter
provided, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of that series then Outstanding hereunder, by written notice to the
Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its
consequences if: (i) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum
sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest upon all the Securities
of that series and the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any and all
Securities of that series that shall have become due otherwise than by
acceleration (with interest upon such principal and premium, if any, and, to the
extent that such payment is enforceable under applicable law, upon overdue
installments of interest, at the rate per annum or Yield to Maturity (in the
case of Original Issue Discount Securities) expressed in the Securities of that
series (or at the respective rates of interest or Yields to Maturity of all the
Securities, as the case may be) to the date of such payment or deposit) and the
amount payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06, and (ii) any and all Events of
Default under the Indenture with respect to such series, other than the
nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on Securities of that
series that (or, if any Securities are Original Issue Discount Securities, such
portion of the principal as may be specified in the terms thereof) shall not
have become due by their terms, shall have been remedied or waived as provided
in Section 6.06.

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

     (d)  In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right with
respect to Securities of that series under this Indenture and such proceedings
shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of such rescission or
annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the
Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, and the Trustee shall be
restored respectively to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all
rights, remedies and powers of the Company and the Trustee shall continue as
though no such proceedings had been taken.

     SECTION 6.02  Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Trustee.

     (a)  The Company covenants that (1) in case it shall default in the payment
of any installment of interest on any of the Securities of a series, or any
payment required by any sinking or analogous fund established with respect to
that series as and when the same shall have become due and payable, and such
default shall have continued for a period of 30 days, or (2) in case it shall
default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any of the
Securities of a series when the same shall have become due and payable, whether
upon maturity of the Securities of a series or upon redemption or upon
declaration or otherwise, then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay
to the Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the Securities of that series,
the whole amount that then shall have been become due and payable on all such
Securities for principal (and premium, if any) or interest, or both, as the case
may be, with interest upon the overdue  principal (and premium, if any) and (to
the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law)
upon overdue installments of interest at the rate per annum expressed in the
Securities of that series; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as
shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, and the
amount payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06.

     (b)  If 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 proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such
judgment or final decree against the Company or other obligor upon the
Securities of that series and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be
payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or
other obligor upon the Securities of that series, wherever situated.

     (c)  In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, readjustment, arrangement, composition or judicial proceedings
affected the Company, or its creditors or property, the Trustee shall have power
to intervene in such proceedings and take any action therein that may be
permitted by the court and shall (except as may be otherwise provided by law) be
entitled to file such proofs of claim and other papers and documents as may be
necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and of the
holders of Securities of such series allowed for the entire amount due and
payable by the Company under the Indenture at the date of institution of such
proceedings and for any additional amount that may become due and payable by the
Company after such date, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property
payable or deliverable on any such claim, and to distribute the same after the
deduction of the amount payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06; and any
receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby
authorized by each of the holders of Securities of such series to make such
payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the
making of such payments directly to such Securityholders, to pay to the Trustee
any amount due it under Section 7.06.

     (d)  All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or
under any of the terms established with respect to Securities of that series,
may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of such Securities,
or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and
any such suit or 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 payment

                                       22
<PAGE>

to the Trustee of any amounts due under Section 7.06, be for the ratable benefit
of the holders of the Securities of such series.

     In case of an Event of Default hereunder, the Trustee may in its discretion
proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such
appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to
protect and enforce any of such rights, either at law or in equity or in
bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or
agreement contained in the Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power
granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right
vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

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

     SECTION 6.03  Application of Moneys Collected.

     Any moneys collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article with respect
to a particular series of Securities shall be applied in the following order, at
the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such
moneys on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon
presentation of the Securities of that series, and notation thereon the payment,
if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

     FIRST: To the payment of costs and expenses of collection and of all
amounts payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06;

     SECOND: To the payment of all senior indebtedness of the Company if and to
the extent required by Article Fourteen; and

     THIRD: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon Securities of
such series for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, in respect of
which or for the benefit of which such money 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,
respectively.

     SECTION 6.04  Limitation on Suits.

     No holder of any Security of any series shall have any right by virtue or
by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or
proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture
or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy
hereunder, unless (i) such holder previously shall have given to the Trustee
written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof with
respect to the Securities of such series specifying such Event of Default, as
hereinbefore provided; (ii) the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding shall have
made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or
proceeding in its own name as trustee hereunder; (iii) such holder or holders
shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as

                                       23
<PAGE>

it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred
therein or thereby; and (iv) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such
notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have failed to institute any such
action, suit or proceeding and (v) during such 60 day period, the holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Securities of that series do not give the
Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.

     Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any other
provisions of this Indenture, the right of any holder of any Security to receive
payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Security,
as therein provided, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such
Security (or in the case of redemption, on the redemption date), or to institute
suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates
or redemption date, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of
such holder and by accepting a Security hereunder it is expressly understood,
intended and covenanted by the taker and holder of every Security of such series
with every other such taker and holder and the Trustee, that no one or more
holders of Securities of such series shall have any right in any manner
whatsoever by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to
affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the holders of any other of such
Securities, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any
other such holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the
manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all
holders of Securities of such series.  For the protection and enforcement of the
provisions of this Section, each and every Securityholder and the Trustee shall
be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

     SECTION 6.05  Rights and Remedies Cumulative; Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

     (a)  Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.07, all powers and remedies
given by this Article to the Trustee or to the Securityholders shall, to the
extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any other
powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the holders of the Securities,
by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance
of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture or otherwise
established with respect to such Securities.

     (b)  No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of any of the
Securities to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default
occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power, or
shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or on acquiescence
therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.04, every power and remedy
given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or the Securityholders may be
exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the
Trustee or by the Securityholders.

     SECTION 6.06  Control by Securityholders.

     The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities
of any series at the time Outstanding, determined in accordance with Section
8.04, 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 such series; provided,
however, that such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
with this Indenture or be unduly prejudicial to the rights of holders of
Securities of any other series at the time Outstanding determined in accordance
with Section 8.04; and provided, further, that the Trustee may take any other
action

                                       24
<PAGE>

deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.
Prior to the taking of any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to
reasonable indemnification satisfactory to the Trustee against all losses and
expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. Subject to the provisions
of Section 7.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such
direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer or
Officers of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed would involve
the Trustee in personal liability. The holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding
affected thereby, determined in accordance with Section 8.04, may on behalf of
the holders of all of the Securities of such series waive any past default in
the performance of any of the covenants contained herein or established pursuant
to Section 2.01 with respect to such series and its consequences, except a
default in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on,
any of the Securities of that series as and when the same shall become due by
the terms of such Securities otherwise than by acceleration (unless such default
has been cured and a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest
and principal and any premium has been deposited with the Trustee (in accordance
with Section 6.01(c)). Upon any such waiver, the default covered thereby shall
be deemed to be cured for all purposes of this Indenture and the Company, the
Trustee and the holders of the Securities of such series 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 6.07  Undertaking to Pay Costs.

     All parties to this Indenture agree, and each holder of any Securities by
such holder's acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court
may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or
remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action
taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit
of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its
discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
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
Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Securityholder, or group of
Securityholders, holding more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any
Securityholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or
premium, if any) or interest on any Security of such series, on or after the
respective due dates expressed in such Security or established pursuant to this
Indenture.

                                  ARTICLE VII

                            CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

     SECTION 7.01  Certain Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee.

     (a)  The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with
respect to the Securities of a series and after the curing of all Events of
Default with respect to the Securities of that series that may have occurred,
shall undertake to perform with respect to the Securities of such series such
duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and
no implied covenants shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. In
case an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series has occurred
(that has not been cured or waived), the Trustee

                                       25
<PAGE>

shall exercise with respect to Securities of that series such of the rights and
powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill
in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

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

          (1)  prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to
the Securities of a series and after the curing or waiving of all such Events of
Default with respect to that series that may have occurred:

               (i)  the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall with respect
                    to the Securities of such series be determined solely by the
                    express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall
                    not be liable with respect to the Securities of such series
                    except for the performance of such duties and obligations as
                    are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied
                    covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture
                    against the Trustee; and

               (ii) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the
                    Trustee may with respect to the Securities of such series
                    conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
                    correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any
                    certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and
                    conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the
                    case of any such certificates or opinions that by any
                    provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished
                    to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine
                    the same to determine whether or not they conform to the
                    requirement of this Indenture;

          (2)  the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in
good faith by a Responsible Officer or   Responsible Officers of the Trustee,
unless it shall be proved that the Trustee, was negligent in ascertaining the
pertinent facts;

          (3)  the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken
or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of
the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities of
any series at the time Outstanding relating to the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising
any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this Indenture with respect
to the Securities of that series; and

          (4)  None of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require
the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise
of any of its rights or powers, if there is reasonable ground for believing that
the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it under
the terms of this Indenture or adequate indemnity against such risk is not
reasonably assured to it.

     SECTION 7.02  Certain Rights of Trustee.

     Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01:

     (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, consent, order, approval, bond, security 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, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned
herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution or an instrument
signed in the name of the Company, by the President or any Vice President and by
the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or the Treasurer or an Assistant
Treasurer thereof (unless other evidence in respect thereof is specifically
prescribed herein);

     (c)  The Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of such
counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and
protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted hereunder in
good faith and in reliance thereon;

     (d)  The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights
or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of
any of the Securityholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless
such Securityholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or
indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred
therein or thereby; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee
of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to a
series of the Securities (that has not been cured or waived) to exercise with
respect to Securities of that series such of the rights and powers vested in it
by this Indenture, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their
exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the
conduct of his own affairs;

     (e)  The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be
taken by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the
discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;

     (f)  The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the
facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, security, or
other papers or documents, unless requested in writing so to do by the holders
of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
the particular series affected thereby (determined as provided in Section 8.04);
provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee
of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making
of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured
to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture,
the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such costs, expenses or
liabilities as a condition to so proceeding. The reasonable expense of every
such examination shall be paid by the Company or, if paid by the Trustee, shall
be repaid by the Company upon demand; 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

                                       27
<PAGE>

for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed
with due care by it hereunder.

     SECTION 7.03  Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance or
Securities.

     (a)  The recitals contained herein and in the Securities shall be taken as
the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the
correctness of the same.

     (b)  The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency
of this Indenture or of the Securities.

     (c)  The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the
Company of any of the Securities or of the proceeds of such Securities, or for
the use or application of any moneys paid over by the Trustee in accordance with

the use or application of any moneys received by any paying agent other than the
Trustee.

     SECTION 7.04  May Hold Securities.

     The Trustee or any paying agent or Security Registrar, in its individual or
any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities with the same
rights it would have if it were not Trustee, paying agent or Security Registrar.

     Subject to the provisions of Section 11.05, 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 be under no
liability for interest on any moneys received by it hereunder except such as it
may agree with the Company to pay thereon.

     SECTION 7.06  Compensation and Reimbursement.

     (a)  The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee, and the
Trustee shall be entitled to, such reasonable compensation (which shall not be
limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an
express trust), as the Company, and the Trustee may from time to time agree in
writing, for all services rendered by it in the execution of the trusts hereby
created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties
hereunder of the Trustee, and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
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 counsel and of
all Persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement
or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith. The Company also
covenants to indemnify the Trustee (and its officers, agents, directors and
employees) for, and to hold it harmless against,

                                       28
<PAGE>

any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on the
part of the Trustee and 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 of liability in the premises.

     (b)  The obligations of the Company under this Section to compensate and
indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses,
disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder.
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 benefit of the holders of particular
Securities.

     SECTION 7.07  Reliance on Officers' Certificate.

     Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01, whenever in the
administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it
necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or
suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, such matter (unless other
evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the
absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be
conclusively proved and established by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the
Trustee and such certificate, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the
part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken,
suffered or omitted to be taken by it under the provisions of this Indenture
upon the faith thereof.

     SECTION 7.08  Disqualification; Conflicting Interests.

     If the Trustee has or shall acquire any "conflicting interest" within the
meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee and the
Company shall in all respects comply with the provisions of Section 310(b) of
the Trust Indenture Act.

     SECTION 7.09  Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

     There shall at all times be a Trustee with respect to the Securities issued
hereunder which shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States of America or any State or Territory thereof
or of the District of Columbia, or a corporation or other Person permitted to
act as trustee by the Commission, authorized under such laws to exercise
corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least 50
million U.S. dollars ($50,000,000), and subject to supervision or examination by
Federal, State, Territorial, or District of Columbia authority.  If such
corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or
to the requirements of the aforesaid 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.  The Company may not, nor
may any Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under
common control with the Company, serve as Trustee. In case at any time the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect
specified in Section 7.10.

                                       29
<PAGE>

     SECTION 7.10  Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

     (a)  The Trustee or any successor hereafter appointed, may at any time
resign with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written
notice thereof to the Company and by transmitting notice of resignation by mail,
first class postage prepaid, to the Securityholders of such series, as their
names and addresses appear upon the Security Register. Upon receiving such
notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee
with respect to Securities of such series by written instrument, in duplicate,
executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall
be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If
no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment
within 30 days after the mailing 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 Securities of such series, or any
Securityholder of that series who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or
Securities for at least six months may 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.

     (b)  In case at any time any one of the following shall occur:

          (1)  the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section
7.08 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Securityholder who
has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months;
or

          (2)  the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of Section 7.09 and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Company or by any such Securityholder; or

          (3)  the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be
adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or commence a voluntary bankruptcy proceeding,
or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or consented
to, 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 may remove the Trustee with
respect to all Securities and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument,
in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the
successor trustee, or, unless the Trustee's duty to resign is stayed as provided
herein, any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or
Securities for at least six months may, on behalf of that holder and all others
similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal
of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may
thereupon after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove
the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

     (c)  The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of any series at the time Outstanding may at any time remove the
Trustee with respect to such series by so notifying the Trustee and the Company
and may appoint a successor Trustee for such series with the consent of the
Company.

     (d)  Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor trustee with respect to the Securities of a series pursuant to any of
the provisions of this Section shall become effective upon acceptance of
appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.11.

     (e)  Any successor trustee appointed pursuant to this Section may be
appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more series or all of such
series, and at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the
Securities of any particular series.

     SECTION 7.11  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, 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)
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, 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 that no Trustee shall be responsible for any act or
failure to act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder; 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,
such retiring Trustee shall with respect to the Securities of that or those
series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates have no
further responsibility for the exercise of rights and powers or for the
performance of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this
Indenture, 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, to the extent contemplated by
such supplemental indenture, the property and money held by such retiring

                                       31
<PAGE>

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 transmit notice of the succession of such
trustee hereunder by mail, first class postage prepaid, to the Securityholders,
as their names and addresses appear upon the Security Register.  If the Company
fails to transmit such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by
the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be
transmitted at the expense of the Company.

     SECTION 7.12  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 the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be
the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be
qualified under the provisions of Section 7.08 and eligible under the provisions
of Section 7.09, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act
on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding. 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.

     SECTION 7.13  Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company.

     The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act,
excluding any creditor relationship described in Section 311(b) of the Trust
Indenture Act. A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to
Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent included therein.

                                 ARTICLE VIII

                        CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS

     SECTION 8.01  Evidence of Action by Securityholders.

     Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the holders of a majority or
specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a
particular series may take any action (including

                                       32
<PAGE>

the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver
or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such
action the holders of such majority or specified percentage of that series have
joined therein may be evidenced by any instrument or any number of instruments
of similar tenor executed by such holders of Securities of that series in Person
or by agent or proxy appointed in writing.

     If the Company shall solicit from the Securityholders of any series any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action, the Company may, at its option, as evidenced by an Officers'
Certificate, fix in advance a record date for such series for the determination
of Securityholders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, but the Company shall have
no obligation to do so.  If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action may be given
before or after the record date, but only the Securityholders of record at the
close of business on the record date shall be deemed to be Securityholders for
the purposes of determining whether Securityholders of the requisite proportion
of Outstanding Securities of that series have authorized or agreed or consented
to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or
other action, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities of that series
shall be computed as of the record date; provided, however, that no such
authorization, agreement or consent by such Securityholders on the record date
shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the
provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.

     SECTION 8.02  Proof of Execution by Securityholders.

     Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, proof of the execution of any
instrument by a Securityholder (such proof will not require notarization) or his
agent or proxy and proof of the holding by any Person of any of the Securities
shall be sufficient if made in the following manner:

     (a)  The fact and date of the execution by any such Person of any
instrument may be proved in any reasonable manner acceptable to the Trustee.

     (b)  The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register
of such Securities or by a certificate of the Security Registrar thereof.

     (c)  The Trustee may require such additional proof of any matter referred
to in this Section as it shall deem necessary.

     SECTION 8.03  Who May be Deemed Owners.

     Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of any Security,
the Company, the Trustee, any paying agent and any Security Registrar may deem
and treat the Person in whose name such Security shall be registered upon the
books of the Company as the absolute owner of such Security (whether or not such
Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing
thereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the purpose of
receiving payment of or on account of the principal of, premium, if any, and
(subject to Section 2.03) interest on such Security and for all other purposes;
and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent nor any Security
Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

                                       33
<PAGE>

     SECTION 8.04  Certain Securities Owned by Company Disregarded.

     In determining whether the holders of the requisite aggregate principal
amount of Securities of a particular series have concurred in any direction,
consent of waiver under this Indenture, the Securities of that series that are
owned by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities of that series or by
any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under common
control with the Company or any other obligor on the Securities of that series
shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any
such determination, except that for the purpose of determining whether the
Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver,
only Securities of such series that the Trustee actually knows are so owned
shall be so disregarded.  The Securities so owned that have been pledged in good
faith may be regarded as Outstanding for the purposes of this Section, if the
pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right
so to act with respect to such Securities and that the pledgee is not a Person
directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect
common control with the Company or any such other obligor.  In case of a dispute
as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel
shall be full protection to the Trustee.

     SECTION 8.05  Actions Binding on Future Securityholders.

     At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as
provided in Section 8.01, of the taking of any action by the holders of the
majority or percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a
particular series specified in this Indenture in connection with such action,
any holder of a Security of that series that is shown by the evidence to be
included in the Securities the holders of which have consented to such action
may, by filing written notice with the Trustee, and upon proof of holding as
provided in Section 8.02, revoke such action so far as concerns such Security.
Except as aforesaid any such action taken by the holder of any Security shall be
conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders and owners
of such Security, and of any Security issued in exchange therefor, on
registration of transfer thereof or in place thereof, irrespective of whether or
not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Security.  Any action taken
by the holders of the majority or percentage in aggregate principal amount of
the Securities of a particular series specified in this Indenture in connection
with such action shall be conclusively binding upon the Company, the Trustee and
the holders of all the Securities of that series.

                                  ARTICLE IX

                            SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

     SECTION 9.01  Supplemental Indentures Without the Consent of
Securityholders.

     In addition to any supplemental indenture otherwise authorized by this
Indenture, the Company 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 Trust Indenture Act as then in effect), without the
consent of the Securityholders, for one or more of the following purposes:

     (a)  to cure any ambiguity, defect, or inconsistency herein, in the
Securities of any series;

                                       34
<PAGE>

     (b)  to comply with Article Ten;

     (c)  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;

     (d)  to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any
Securityholder in any material respect;

     (e)  to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and
conditions of the Securities of any series as provided in Section 2.01, to
establish the form of any certifications required to be furnished pursuant to
the terms of this Indenture or any series of Securities, or to add to the rights
of the holders of any series of Securities; or

     (f)  to comply with any requirements of the Securities and Exchange
Commission in connection with qualifying, or maintaining the qualification of,
this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act.

     The Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Company in the execution
of any such supplemental indenture, and to make any further appropriate
agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall
not be obligated to enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the
Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

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

     SECTION 9.02  Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Securityholders.

     With the consent (evidenced as provided in Section 8.01) of the holders of
not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each
series affected by such supplemental indenture or indentures at the time
Outstanding, the Company, when authorized by Board Resolutions, 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 Trust
Indenture Act as then in effect) 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 not covered by
Section 9.01 the rights of the holders of the Securities of such series under
this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall,
without the consent of the holders of each Security then Outstanding and
affected thereby change the fixed maturity of any Securities of any series, or
reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of
payment of interest thereon, or reduce any premium payable upon the redemption
thereof.

                                       35
<PAGE>

     In addition, any reduction in the percentage of principal amount of notes,
the holders of which are required to consent to any amendment, modification or
waiver under the applicable indenture will require the affirmative consent of at
least the percentage of notes which would originally have been required to make
such consent, modification or waiver effective.

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

     SECTION 9.03  Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

     Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions
of this Article or of Section 10.01, this Indenture shall, with respect to such
series, 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 of Securities
of the series affected thereby 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 9.04  Securities Affected by Supplemental Indentures.

     Securities of any series, affected by a supplemental indenture,
authenticated and delivered after the execution of such supplemental indenture
pursuant to the provisions of this Article or of Section 10.01, may bear a
notation in form approved by the Company, provided such form meets the
requirements of any exchange upon which such series may be listed, as to any
matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so
determine, new Securities of that series so modified as to conform, in the
opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company, to any modification of this
Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared by the
Company, authenticated by the Trustee and delivered in exchange for the
Securities of that series then Outstanding.

     SECTION 9.05  Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

     Upon the request of the Company, accompanied by its Board Resolutions
authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture, and upon the
filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Securityholders required
to consent thereto as aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the
execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture
affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or
otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion but shall not be
obligated to enter into such supplemental indenture.  The Trustee, subject to
the provisions of Section 7.01, may receive an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive
evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article is
authorized or permitted by, and conforms to, the terms of this Article and that
it is proper for the Trustee under the provisions of this Article to join in the
execution thereof; provided, however, that such Opinion of Counsel need not be
provided in connection with the execution of a supplemental indenture that
establishes the terms of a series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof.

                                       36
<PAGE>

     Promptly after the execution by the Company and the Trustee of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Trustee
shall transmit by mail, first class postage prepaid, a notice, setting forth in
general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture, to the
Securityholders of all series affected thereby as their names and addresses
appear upon the Security Register. Any failure of the Trustee to mail such
notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect
the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

                                   ARTICLE X

                             SUCCESSOR CORPORATION

     SECTION 10.01  Limitations On Mergers, Consolidations Or Sales Of Assets.

     The Company may not consolidate or merge with or into (whether or not the
Company is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey
or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets in one or more
related transactions to, another Person or Persons unless:

          (i)    the Company is the surviving corporation or the entity or the
Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than
the Company) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or
other disposition shall have been made is a corporation organized or existing
under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of
Columbia;

          (ii)   the entity or Person formed by or surviving any such
consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or the entity or Person to
which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition
shall have been made assumes all the obligations of the Company under this
Indenture and the Securities pursuant to a supplemental indenture in a form
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; and

          (iii)  immediately after such transaction no Event of Default
exists.

     If a supplemental indenture is required to be executed, the Company shall
deliver to the Trustee prior to the consummation of the proposed transaction an
Officers' Certificate to the foregoing effect and an Opinion of Counsel,
covering clauses (i) through (iii) above, stating that the proposed transaction
and such supplemental indenture comply with this Indenture.  The Trustee shall
be entitled to conclusively rely upon such Officers' Certificate and Opinion of
Counsel.

     SECTION 10.02  Successor Corporation Substituted.

     (a)  In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer
or other disposition and upon the assumption by the successor corporation, by
supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory
in form to the Trustee, of the due and punctual payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on all of the Securities of all series Outstanding
and the due and punctual performance of all of the obligations, covenants and
conditions of this Indenture or established with respect to each series of the
Securities pursuant to Section 2.01 to be performed by the Company with respect
to each series, such successor corporation shall

                                       37
<PAGE>

succeed to and be substituted for the Company with the same effect as if it had
been named as the Company herein, and thereupon the predecessor corporation
shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the
Securities.

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

                                  ARTICLE XI

                      DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE

     SECTION 11.01  Discharge of Liability or Securities; Defeasance.

     (a)  When (i) the Company delivers to the Trustee all outstanding
Securities (other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07) for
cancellation or (ii) all outstanding Securities have become due and payable at
maturity and the Company irrevocable deposits with the Trustee funds sufficient
to pay at maturity all outstanding Securities, including interest thereon to
maturity (other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07), and if in
either case the Company pays all other sums payable hereunder by the Company,
then this Indenture shall, subject to Section 11.01(c), cease to be of further
effect. The Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture on demand of the Company accompanied by an Officers' Certificate and
an Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and expense of the Company.

     (b)  Subject to Sections 11.01(c) and 11.02, the Company at any time may
terminate (i) all its obligations under the Securities and this Indenture
("legal defeasance option") or (ii) its obligations under Sections 5.03, 4.04
and 4.05 and any other sections of a supplemental indenture specifically
identified therein as being subject to this section ("covenant defeasance
option").  The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding
its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option.

     If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the
Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect
thereto.  If the Company exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of
the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with
respect to a failure to comply with its obligations under 5.03, 4.04, 4.05 and
any other section contained in a supplemental indenture which are specifically
identified as being the subject of this section.

     Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of
the Company, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those
obligations that the Company terminated.

     (c)  Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Company's obligations
in Sections 4.02, 4.03, 5.02 2.05, 2.07, 2.08, 7.06, and 7.10 and in this
Article Eleven shall survive until the Securities have been paid in full. The
rights of outstanding securities to receive solely from the trust funds
described in Section 11.03 payments in respect of principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on

                                       38
<PAGE>

such Securities when such payments are due shall also survive until the
Securities have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Company's obligations in
Section 7.06 and 11.05 shall survive.

     SECTION 11.02  Conditions to Defeasance.

     The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant
defeasance option only if:

     (a)  the Company irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee money
sufficient or Government Obligations, the principal of and interest on which
when due, will be sufficient, or a combination thereof, sufficient for the
payment of principal of and interest on the Securities to maturity or
redemption, as the case may be;

     (b)  the Company delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally
recognized firm of independent accountants expressing their opinion that the
payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on the
deposited Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment
will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay
principal and interest when due on all the Securities to maturity or redemption,
as the case may be;

     (c)  91 days pass after the deposit is made and during the 91-day period no
Default specified in Sections 6.01(a)(5) or (a)(6) with respect to the Company
occurs which is continuing at the end of the period;

     (d)  the deposit does not constitute a default under any other material
agreement binding on the Company;

     (e)  in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) the Company has
received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a
ruling, or (ii) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the
applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based
thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Securityholders will not
recognize income, gain or loss of 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;

     (f)  in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the
Securityholders 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; and

     (g)  the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to either legal
defeasance or covenant defeasance as contemplated by this Article Eleven have
been complied with.

     SECTION 11.03  Deposited Moneys to be Held in Trust.

     All moneys or Governmental Obligations deposited with the Trustee pursuant
to Sections 11.01 or 11.02 shall be held in trust and shall be available for
payment as due, either directly or through any paying agent (including the
Company acting as its own paying agent), to the holders of the particular series
of Securities for the payment or redemption of which such moneys or Governmental
Obligations have been deposited with the Trustee.

     SECTION 11.04  Payment of Moneys Held by Paying Agents.

     In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture all
moneys or Governmental Obligations then held by any paying agent under the
provisions of this Indenture shall, upon demand of the Company, be paid to the
Trustee and thereupon such paying agent shall be released from all further
liability with respect to such moneys or Governmental Obligations.

     SECTION 11.05  Repayment to Company.

     Any moneys or Governmental Obligations deposited with any paying agent or
the Trustee, or then held by the Company, in trust for payment of principal of
