      but
      which may modify or delete any provision of this Indenture insofar as it applies
      to such Series); and 

     

    2.2.22
      any
      depositories, interest rate calculation agents, exchange rate calculation agents
      or other agents with respect to Securities of such Series if other than those
      appointed herein. 

     

    All
      Securities of any one Series need not be issued at the same time and may be
      issued from time to time, consistent with the terms of this Indenture, if so
      provided by or pursuant to the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture or
      Officers’ Certificate referred to above, and the authorized principal amount of
      any Series may not be increased to provide for issuances of additional
      Securities of such Series, unless otherwise provided in such Board Resolution,
      supplemental indenture or Officers’ Certificate. 

     

    Section
      2.3 Execution and Authentication. 

     

    Two
      Officers shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile
      signature. 

     

    If
      an
      Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the
      time
      the Security is authenticated, the Security shall nevertheless be valid.

     

    A
      Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of
      the
      Trustee or an authenticating agent. The signature shall be conclusive evidence
      that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. 

     

    The
      Trustee shall at any time, and from time to time, authenticate Securities for
      original issue in the principal amount provided in the Board Resolution,
      supplemental indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate, upon receipt by the
      Trustee of a Company Order. Such Company Order may authorize authentication
      and
      delivery pursuant to electronic instructions from the Company or its duly
      authorized agent or agents, which instructions shall be promptly confirmed
      in
      writing. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication unless
      otherwise provided by a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or
      an
      Officers’ Certificate. 

     

    The
      aggregate principal amount of Securities of any Series outstanding at any time
      may not exceed any limit upon the maximum principal amount for such Series
      set
      forth in the Board 

     

    Resolution,
      supplemental indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate delivered pursuant to
      Section 2.2, except as provided in Section 2.8. 

     

    Prior
      to
      the issuance of Securities of any Series, the Trustee shall have received and
      (subject to Section 7.2) shall be fully protected in conclusively relying on:
      (a) the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate
      establishing the form of the Securities of that Series or of Securities within
      that Series and the terms of the Securities of that Series or of Securities
      within that Series, (b) an Officers’ Certificate complying with Section 10.4,
      and (c) an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section 10.4, and stating (i)
      that
      the form and terms of the Securities have been established in conformity with
      the provisions of this Indenture, and (ii) that such Securities, when
      authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the
      manner and subject to any conditions specified therein, will constitute valid
      and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their
      terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy,
      insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other laws relating to or affecting
      creditors' rights and by general principles of equity.

    The
      Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any
      Securities of such Series: (a) if the Trustee, being advised by counsel,
      determines that such action may not lawfully be taken; or (b) if the Trustee
      in
      good faith by its board of directors or trustees, executive committee or a
      trust
      committee of directors and/or vice-presidents shall determine that such action
      would expose the Trustee to personal liability to Holders of any then
      outstanding Series of Securities. 

     

    The
      Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to
      authenticate Securities. An authenticating agent may authenticate Securities
      whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to
      authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An
      authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Company
      or
      an Affiliate. 

     

    Section
      2.4 Registrar and Paying Agent. 

     

    The
      Company shall maintain, with respect to each Series of Securities, at the place
      or places specified with respect to such Series pursuant to Section 2.2, an
      office or agency where Securities of such Series may be presented or surrendered
      for payment (“Paying Agent”), where Securities of such Series may be surrendered
      for registration of transfer or exchange (“Registrar”) and where notices and
      demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of such Series
      and
      this Indenture may be served (“Service Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a
      register with respect to each Series of Securities and to their transfer and
      exchange. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the
      name
      and address, and any change in the name or address, of each Registrar, Paying
      Agent or Service Agent. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any
      such required Registrar, Paying Agent or Service Agent or shall fail to furnish
      the Trustee with the name and address thereof, such presentations, surrenders,
      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, surrenders, notices and demands. 

     

    The
      Company may also from time to time designate one or more co-registrars,
      additional paying agents or additional service agents and may from time to
      time
      rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or
      rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligations to
      maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent and Service Agent in each place so specified
      pursuant to Section 2.2 for Securities of any Series for such purposes. The
      Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation
      or rescission and of any change in the name or address of any such co-registrar,
      additional paying agent or additional service agent. The term “Registrar”
includes any co-registrar; the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional
      paying agent; and the term “Service Agent” includes any additional service
      agent. 

     

    The
      Company hereby appoints the Trustee the initial Registrar, Paying Agent and
      Service Agent for each Series unless another Registrar, Paying Agent or Service
      Agent, as the case may be, is appointed prior to the time Securities of that
      Series are first issued. 

     

    Section
      2.5 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

     

    The
      Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in
      writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust, for the benefit of
      Securityholders of any Series of Securities, or the Trustee, all money held
      by
      the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the Series
      of
      Securities, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making
      any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require
      a
      Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any
      time
      may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon
      payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or
      a
      Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or
      a
      Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate
      trust
      fund for the benefit of Securityholders of any Series of Securities all money
      held by it as Paying Agent. 

     

    Section
      2.6 Securityholder Lists. 

     

    The
      Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the
      most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Securityholders
      of each Series of Securities and shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a).
      If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee
      at
      least ten days before each interest payment date and at such other times as
      the
      Trustee may request in writing a list, in such form and as of such date as
      the
      Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of Securityholders
      of
      each Series of Securities.

    Section
      2.7 Transfer and Exchange. 

     

    Where
      Securities of a Series are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with
      a
      request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount
      of Securities of the same Series, the Registrar shall register the transfer
      or
      make the exchange if its requirements for such transactions are met. To permit
      registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Trustee shall authenticate
      Securities at the Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made for any
      registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted
      herein), but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
      transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith
      (other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable upon
      exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.11, 3.6 or 9.6). 

     

    Neither
      the Company nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the
      transfer of, or exchange Securities of any Series for the period beginning
      at
      the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the mailing of a
      notice of redemption of Securities of that Series selected for redemption and
      ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (b) to register
      the transfer of or exchange Securities of any Series selected, called or being
      called for redemption as a whole or the portion being redeemed of any such
      Securities selected, called or being called for redemption in part.

     

    Section
      2.8 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 

     

    If
      any
      mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute
      and
      the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security
      of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number
      not contemporaneously outstanding. 

     

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

     

    In
      case
      any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about
      to
      become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing
      a
      new Security, pay such Security. 

     

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

     

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

     

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

     

    Section
      2.9 Outstanding Securities. 

     

    The
      Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by
      the
      Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation,
      those reductions in the interest on a Global Security effected by the Trustee
      in
      accordance with the provisions hereof and those described in this Section as
      not
      outstanding. 

     

    If
      a
      Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.8, it ceases to be outstanding until
      the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is
      held
      by a bona fide purchaser. 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        10

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    If
      the
      Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any
      thereof) holds on the Maturity of Securities of a Series money sufficient to
      pay
      such Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such
      Securities of the Series cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases
      to
      accrue. 

     

    A
      Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate
      holds the Security. 

     

    In
      determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding
      Securities have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
      consent or waiver hereunder, the principal amount of a Discount Security that
      shall be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes shall be the amount of
      the
      principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of such
      determination upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof
      pursuant to Section 6.2. 

     

    Section
      2.10 Treasury Securities. 

     

    In
      determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities
      of a Series have concurred in any request, demand, authorization, direction,
      notice, consent or waiver Securities of a Series owned by the Company or an
      Affiliate shall be disregarded, except that for the purposes of determining
      whether the Trustee shall be protected in conclusively relying on any such
      request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver only
      Securities of a Series that the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so
      disregarded. 

     

    Section
      2.11 Temporary Securities. 

     

    Until
      definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the
      Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities upon a Company Order. Temporary
      Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but
      may
      have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities.
      Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee upon
      request shall authenticate definitive Securities of the same Series and date
      of
      maturity in exchange for temporary Securities. Until so exchanged, temporary
      securities shall have the same rights under this Indenture as the definitive
      Securities. 

     

    Section
      2.12 Cancellation. 

     

    The
      Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation.
      The
      Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities
      surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The
      Trustee shall cancel all Securities surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment,
      replacement or cancellation and shall destroy such canceled Securities (subject
      to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act) and deliver a
      certificate of such destruction to the Company, unless the Company otherwise
      directs. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that
      it
      has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

     

    Section
      2.13 Defaulted Interest. 

     

    If
      the
      Company defaults in a payment of interest on a Series of Securities, it shall
      pay the defaulted interest, plus, to the extent permitted by law, any interest
      payable on the defaulted interest, to the persons who are Securityholders of
      the
      Series on a subsequent special record date. The Company shall fix the record
      date and payment date. At least 30 days before the record date, the Company
      shall mail to the Trustee and to each Securityholder of the Series a notice
      that
      states the record date, the payment date and the amount of interest to be paid.
      The Company may pay defaulted interest in any other lawful manner. 

     

    Section
      2.14 Global Securities. 

     

    2.14.1
      Terms of Securities. A
      Board
      Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officers’ Certificate shall
      establish whether the Securities of a Series shall be issued in whole or in
      part
      in the form of one or more Global Securities and the Depositary for such Global
      Security or Securities. 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        11

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    2.14.2
      Transfer and Exchange. Notwithstanding
      any provisions to the contrary contained in Section 2.7 of the Indenture and
      in
      addition thereto, any Global Security shall be exchangeable pursuant to Section
      2.7 of the Indenture for Securities registered in the names of Holders other
      than the Depositary for such Security or its nominee only if (i) such Depositary
      notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary
      for such Global Security or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a
      clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, the
      Company fails to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days of such event,
      (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate
      to the effect that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable or (iii) an
      Event of Default with respect to the Securities represented by such Global
      Security shall have happened and be continuing. Any Global Security that is
      exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for
      Securities registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct in writing
      in
      an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global
      Security with like tenor and terms. 

     

    Except
      as
      provided in this Section 2.14.2, a Global Security may not be transferred except
      as a whole by the Depositary with respect to such Global Security to a nominee
      of such Depositary, by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or
      another nominee of such Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee
      to a
      successor Depositary or a nominee of such a successor Depositary. 

     

    2.14.3
      Legend. Unless
      otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.2, any Global Security issued hereunder
      shall bear a legend in substantially the following form: 

     

    “This
      Security is a Global Security within the meaning of the Indenture hereinafter
      referred to and is registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of
      the
      Depositary. This Security is exchangeable for Securities registered in the
      name
      of a person other than the Depositary or its nominee only in the limited
      circumstances described in the Indenture, and may not be transferred except
      as a
      whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the
      Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the
      Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such
      a
      successor Depositary.” 

     

    2.14.4
      Acts of Holders. The
      Depositary, as a Holder, may appoint agents and otherwise authorize participants
      to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
      waiver or other action which a Holder is entitled to give or take under the
      Indenture. 

     

    2.14.5
      Payments. Notwithstanding
      the other provisions of this Indenture, unless otherwise specified as
      contemplated by Section 2.2, payment of the principal of, premium, if any,
      and
      interest, if any, on any Global Security shall be made to the Holder thereof.
      

     

    2.14.6
      Consents, Declaration and Directions. With
      respect to a Global Security, the Depositary may be treated by the Company,
      the
      Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner of
      the
      Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
      nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the
      Company or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy
      or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the
      Depositary and its agent members, the operation of customary practices governing
      the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Note.

    

    2.14.7
      Trustee Protections.
      Each
      Holder of a Security agrees to indemnify the Company and the Trustee against
      any
      liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such
      Holder's Security in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or
      applicable United States Federal or state securities law.

    

    The
      Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as
      to
      compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or
      under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any
      Security (including any transfers between or among depositary participants
      or
      beneficial owners of interests in any Global Security) other than to require
      delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are
      expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms
      of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance
      as to form with the express requirements hereof.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        12

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    Neither
      the Trustee nor any agent thereof shall have any responsibility for any actions
      taken or not taken by the Depositary. 

     

    Section
      2.15 CUSIP Numbers. 

     

    The
      Company in issuing the Securities may use CUSIP numbers (if then generally
      in
      use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption
      as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no
      representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed
      on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that

    REDEMPTION
      

     

    Section
      3.1 Notice to Trustee. 

     

    The
      Company may, with respect to any Series of Securities, reserve the right to
      redeem and pay the Series of Securities or may covenant to redeem and pay the
      Series of Securities or any part thereof prior to the Stated Maturity thereof
      at
      such time and on such terms as provided for in such Securities. If a Series
      of
      Securities is redeemable and the Company wants or is obligated to redeem prior
      to the Stated Maturity thereof all or part of the Series of Securities pursuant
      to the terms of such Securities, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of
      the
      redemption date and the principal amount of Series of Securities to be redeemed.
      The Company shall give the notice at least 45 days before the redemption date
      (or such shorter notice as may be acceptable to the Trustee). 

     

    Section
      3.2 Selection of Securities to be Redeemed. 

     

    Unless
      otherwise indicated for a particular Series by a Board Resolution, a
      supplemental indenture or an Officers’ Certificate, if less than all the
      Securities of a Series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the
      Securities of the Series to be redeemed by lot, pro rata or in any manner that
      the Trustee deems fair and appropriate. The Trustee shall make the selection
      from Securities of the Series outstanding not previously called for redemption.
      The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities
      of
      the Series that have denominations larger than $1,000. Securities of the Series
      and portions of them it selects shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples
      of $1,000 or, with respect to Securities of any Series issuable in other
      denominations pursuant to Section 2.2.10, the minimum principal denomination
      for
      each Series and integral multiples thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that
      apply to Securities of a Series called for redemption also apply to portions
      of
      Securities of that Series called for redemption. 

     

    Section
      3.3 Notice of Redemption. 

     

    Unless
      otherwise indicated for a particular Series by Board Resolution, a supplemental
      indenture hereto or an Officers’ Certificate, at least 30 days but not more than
      90 days before a redemption date, the Company shall mail a notice of redemption
      by first-class mail to each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed and
      if
      any Bearer Securities are outstanding, publish on one occasion a notice in
      an
      Authorized Newspaper. 

     

    The
      notice shall identify the Securities of the Series to be redeemed (including
      the
      CUSIP numbers thereof) and shall state: 

     

    (a)
      the
      redemption date; 

     

    (b)
      the
      redemption price;

    (c)
      the
      name
      and address of the Paying Agent; 

     

    (d)
      that
      Securities of the Series called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying
      Agent to collect the redemption price; 

     

    (e)
      that
      interest on Securities of the Series called for redemption ceases to accrue
      on
      and after the redemption date; and 

     

    (f)
      any
      other
      information as may be required by the terms of the particular Series or the
      Securities of a Series being redeemed. 

     

    At
      the
      Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the
      Company’s name and at its expense. 

     

    Section
      3.4 Effect of Notice of Redemption. 

     

    Once
      notice of redemption is mailed or published as provided in Section 3.3,
      Securities of a Series called for redemption become due and payable on the
      redemption date and at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not
      be
      conditional. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid
      at the redemption price plus accrued interest to the redemption date.

     

    Section
      3.5 Deposit of Redemption Price. 

     

    On
      or
      before the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent
      money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest, if any,
      on
      all Securities to be redeemed on that date. 

     

    Section
      3.6 Securities Redeemed in Part. 

     

    Upon
      surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Trustee shall authenticate
      for the Holder a new Security of the same Series and the same maturity equal
      in
      principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

      signing such certificate, that to the best of his knowledge the Company has
      kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in
      this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any
      of
      the terms, provisions and conditions hereof (or, if a Default or Event of

      of

    If
      an
      Event of Default with respect to Securities of any Series at the time
      outstanding occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default referred
      to
      in Section 6.1(e) or (f) ) then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders
      of
      not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that
      Series may declare the principal amount (or, if any Securities of that Series
      are Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be
      specified in the terms of such Securities) of and accrued and unpaid interest,
      if any, on all of the Securities of that Series to be due and payable
      immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given
      by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified
      amount) and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall become immediately due
      and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(e) or (f) shall
      occur, the principal amount (or specified amount) of and accrued and unpaid
      interest, if any, on all outstanding Securities shall ipso facto become and
      be
      immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part
      of
      the Trustee or any Holder. 

     

    At

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

     

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

     

    (i)
      all
      overdue interest, if any, on all Securities of that Series, 

     

    (ii)
      the
      principal of any Securities of that Series which have become due otherwise
      than
      by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates
      prescribed therefor in such Securities, 

     

    (iii)
      to
      the
      extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon any overdue
      principal and overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in
      such
      Securities, and 

     

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

     

    (b)
      all
      Events of Default with respect to Securities of that Series, other than the
      non-payment of the principal of Securities of that Series which have become
      due
      solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as
      provided in Section 6.13. 

     

    No
      such
      rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent
      thereon. 

     

    Section
      6.3 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

    (a)
      default
      is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest
      becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 90 days,
      or

     

    (b)
      default
      is made in the payment of principal of any Security at the Maturity thereof,
      or

     

    (c)
      default
      is made in the deposit of any sinking fund payment when and as due by the terms
      of a Security, then, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it,
      for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due
      and
      payable on such Securities for principal and interest and, to the extent that
      payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue
      principal or any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor
      in
      such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be
      sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the
      reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
      its agents and counsel. 

     

    If
      the
      Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee,
      in
      its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial
      proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute
      such
      proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the
      Company or any other obligor upon such Securities and collect the moneys
      adjudged or deemed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the
      property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever
      situated.

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

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

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

     

    Section
      6.6 Application of Money Collected. 

     

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

     

    First:
      To
      the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7; and 

     

    Second:
      To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and interest
      on the Securities 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 interest,
      respectively; and 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        18

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    Third:
      To
      the Company. 

     

    Section
      6.7 Limitation on Suits. 

     

    No
      Holder
      of any Security of any Series shall have any right to institute any proceeding,
      judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment
      of
      a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless 

     

    (a)
      such
      Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event
      of Default with respect to the Securities of that Series; 

     

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

     

    (c)
      such
      Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it
      against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with
      such request; 

     

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

     

    (e)
      no
      direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee
      during such 90-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount
      of
      the outstanding Securities of that Series; 

    

    it
      being
      understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any
      right
      in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this
      Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such
      Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any
      other
      of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the
      manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders
      (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to
      ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial
      to
      such Holders). 

     

    Section
      6.8 Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal and Interest.

     

    Notwithstanding
      any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have
      the
      right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal
      of and interest, if any, on such Security on the Stated Maturity or Stated
      Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the
      redemption date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment,
      and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

     

    Section
      6.9 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

     

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

     

    Section
      6.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

     

    Except
      as
      otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
      destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in Section 2.8, no right or remedy herein
      conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to
      be
      exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to
      the
      extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right
      and
      remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
      otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or
      otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any
      other
      appropriate right or remedy.

    Section
      6.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 

     

    No
      delay
      or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any
      right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right
      or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence
      therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee
      or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be
      deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

     

    Section
      6.12 Control by Holders. 

     

    The
      Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of
      any
      Series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting
      any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust
      or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such
      Series, provided that 

     

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

     

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

     

    (c)
      subject
      to the provisions of Section 6.1, the Trustee shall have the right to decline
      to
      follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible
      Officer of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed would involve
      the Trustee in personal liability. 

     

    Section
      6.13 Waiver of Past Defaults. 

     

    Subject
      to Section 6.2, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount
      of
      the outstanding Securities of any Series may on behalf of the Holders of all
      the
      Securities of such Series waive any past Default hereunder with respect to
      such
      Series and its consequences, except a Default in the payment of the principal
      of
      or interest on any Security of such Series (provided, however, that the Holders
      of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series
      may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment
      default that resulted from such acceleration). Upon any such waiver, such
      Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall
      be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such
      waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right
      consequent thereon. 

     

    Section
      6.14 Undertaking for Costs. 

     

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

    ARTICLE
      VII 

     

    TRUSTEE
      

     

    Section
      7.1 Duties of Trustee. 

     

    (a)
      If
      an
      Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise
      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 person would exercise or use under
      the
      circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 

     

    (b)
      Except
      during the continuance of an Event of Default: 

     

    (i)
      The
      Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this
      Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
      Indenture against the Trustee. 

     

    (ii)
      In
      the
      absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to
      the
      truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein,
      upon Officers’ Certificates or Opinions of Counsel furnished to the Trustee and
      conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; however, in the case of any
      such Officers’ Certificates or Opinions of Counsel which by any provisions
      hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee
      shall examine such Officers’ Certificates and Opinions of Counsel to determine
      whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need
      not
      confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts
      stated therein). 

     

    (c)
      The
      Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its
      own
      negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

     

    (i)
      This
      paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section.

     

    (ii)
      The
      Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by
      a
      Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in
      ascertaining the pertinent facts. 

     

    (iii)
      The
      Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or
      omitted to be taken by it with respect to Securities of any Series in good
      faith
      in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal
      amount of the outstanding Securities of such Series 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 such Series. 

     

    (d)
      Every
      provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject
      to
      paragraph (a), (b) and (c) of this Section. 

     

    (e)
      The
      Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any right or power unless
      it
      receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability, damage,
      claim
      or expense. 

     

    (f)
      The
      Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except
      as
      the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company. Money held in trust by the
      Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required
      by
      law. 

     

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

     

    (h)
      The
      Paying Agent, the Registrar and any authenticating agent shall be entitled
      to
      the protections and immunities as are set forth in paragraphs (a), (b) and
      (c)
      of this Section with respect to the Trustee. 

     

    Section
      7.2 Rights of Trustee. 

     

    (a)
      The
      Trustee may conclusively rely on and shall be protected in acting or refraining
      from acting upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been
      signed or presented by the proper person. The Trustee need not investigate any
      fact or matter stated in the document. 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        21

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    (b)
      Before
      the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’
Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee shall not be liable for any
      action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officers’
Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. 

     

    (c)
      The
      Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct
      or negligence of any agent appointed with due care. No Depositary shall be
      deemed an agent of the Trustee and the Trustee shall not be responsible for
      any
      act or omission by any Depositary. 

     

    (d)
      The
      Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good
      faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers;
provided,
      however,
      that
      the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful misconduct, gross negligence
      or bad faith. 

     

    (e)
      The
      Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice of such counsel
      or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and
      protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder
      in good faith and in reliance thereon. 

     

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

    

    (g)
      The
      Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters
      stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report,
      notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other
      evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its
      discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts
      or
      matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such
      further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books,
      records and premises of the Company, at reasonable times during normal business
      hours, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and
      shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such
      inquiry or investigation.

    

    (h)
      The
      rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee,
      including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to,
      and
      shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and
      each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

    

    (i)
      In
      no
      event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or
      consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited
      to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of
      the
      likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of
      action.

    

    (j)
      The
      Trustee may request that the Company deliver a certificate setting forth the
      names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take
      specified actions pursuant to this Indenture.

     

    In
      addition, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default
      or
      Event of Default until the Trustee shall have received written notification
      in
      the manner set forth in this Indenture or a Responsible Officer of the Trustee
      shall have obtained actual knowledge. Delivery of reports, information and
      documents to the Trustee under Section 4.2 is for informational purposes only
      and the information and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not
      constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein, or
      determinable from information contained therein including the Company’s
      compliance with any of their covenants thereunder (as to which the Trustee
      is
      entitled to rely exclusively on an Officers’ Certificate). 

     

    Section
      7.3 Individual Rights of Trustee. 

     

    The
      Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee
      of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or an Affiliate with
      the
      same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same
      with
      like rights. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        22

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    Section
      7.4 Trustee’s Disclaimer. 

     

    The
      Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture
      or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the
      proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement
      in the Securities other than its authentication. 

     

    Section
      7.5 Notice of Defaults. 

     

    If
      a
      Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the
      Securities of any Series and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall
      mail to each Securityholder of the Securities of that Series and, if any Bearer
      Securities are outstanding, publish on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper,
      notice of a Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs or,
      if
      later, after the Trustee has knowledge of such Default or Event of Default.
      Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal
      of
      or interest on any Security of any Series, the Trustee may withhold the notice
      if and so long as its corporate trust committee or a committee of its
      Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is
      in
      the interests of Securityholders of that Series. 

     

    Section
      7.6 Reports by Trustee to Holders. 

     

    Within
      60
      days after May 15 in each year, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all
      Securityholders, as their names and addresses appear on the register kept by
      the
      Registrar and, if any Bearer Securities are outstanding, publish in an
      Authorized Newspaper, a brief report dated as of such May 15, in accordance
      with, and to the extent required under, TIA Section 313. 

     

    A
      copy of
      each report at the time of its mailing to Securityholders of any Series shall
      be
      filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Securities of that
      Series are listed. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee when Securities
      of any Series are listed on any stock exchange. 

     

    Section
      7.7 Compensation and Indemnity. 

     

    The
      Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its
      services as shall be agreed from time to time in writing. The Trustee’s
      compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of
      an
      express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all
      reasonable disbursements, advance and expenses incurred by it, including the
      reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and
      counsel.

     

    The
      Company shall indemnify the Trustee (including the cost of defending itself)
      against any loss, liability, damage, claim or expense incurred by it except
      as
      set forth in the next paragraph in the performance of its duties under this
      Indenture as Trustee or Agent. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly
      of
      any claim for which it may seek indemnity. The Company shall defend the claim
      and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate
      counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such
      counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent,
      which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. This indemnification shall
      apply to officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents of the Trustee.
      

     

    The
      Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability,
      damage, claim or expense determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to
      have
      been incurred by the Trustee through negligence or bad faith. 

     

    To
      secure
      the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien
      prior to the Securities of any Series on all money or property held or collected
      by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on
      particular Securities of that Series. 

     

    When
      the
      Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified
      in Section 6.1(e) or (f) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the
      services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any
      Bankruptcy Law.

    The
      obligations of the Company in this section shall survive the discharge of the
      Indenture or resignation of the Trustee.

     

    Section
      7.8 Replacement of Trustee. 

     

    A
      resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee
      shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of
      appointment as provided in this Section. 

     

    The
      Trustee may resign with respect to the Securities of one or more Series by
      so
      notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
      Securities of any Series may remove the Trustee with respect to that Series
      by
      so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove
      the
      Trustee with respect to Securities of one or more Series if: 

     

    (a)
      the
      Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10; 

     

    (b)
      the
      Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered
      with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law; 

     

    (c)
      a
      Custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or
      

     

    (d)
      the
      Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

     

    If
      the
      Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee
      for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within
      one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority
      in
      principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may appoint a successor
      Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. 

     

    If
      a
      successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any one or more Series
      does
      not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed,
      the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of at least 10% in principal
      amount of the Securities of the applicable Series may petition any court of
      competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

     

    If
      the
      Trustee with respect to the Securities of any one or more Series fails to comply
      with Section 7.10, any Securityholder of the applicable Series may petition
      any
      court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the
      appointment of a successor Trustee. 

     

    A
      successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to
      the
      retiring Trustee and to the Company. Immediately after that, the retiring
      Trustee shall transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor
      Trustee subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.7, the resignation or
      removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor
      Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee with respect
      to each Series of Securities for which it is acting as Trustee under this
      Indenture. A successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to each
      Securityholder of each such Series and, if any Bearer Securities are
      outstanding, publish such notice on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper.
      Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.8, the
      Company’s obligations under Section 7.7 hereof shall continue for the benefit of
      the retiring trustee with respect to expenses and liabilities incurred by it
      prior to such replacement. 

     

    Section
      7.9 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. 

     

    If
      the
      Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or
      substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation,
      the
      successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

    Section
      7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. 

     

    This
      Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA
      Section 310(a) (1), (2) and (5). The Trustee shall always have a combined
      capital and surplus of at least $25,000,000 as set forth in its most recent
      published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section
      310(b). 

     

    Section
      7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 

     

    The
      Trustee is subject to TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship
      listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall
      be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated.

      supplemental indenture hereto for a particular Series of Securities or a Board
      Resolution or an Officers’ Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.2.21 (and

      or
      Event of Default under Section 6.1) and the occurrence of any event described
      in
      clause (e) of Section 6.1 shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default

      under, this Indenture or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company
      is a party or by which it is bound;

      Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such Series shall
      have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or during the period
      ending on the 91st day after such date; 

     

    (d)
      the
      Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming
      that Holders of the Securities of such Series will not recognize income, gain
      or
      loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and 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 deposit and
      defeasance had not occurred; 

     

    (e)
      the
      Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating the
      deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders
      of
      the Securities of such Series over any other creditors of the Company or with

      held by them for the payment of principal and interest that remains unclaimed
      for two years or such other shorter period set forth in applicable escheat
      or
      abandoned or unclaimed property law. After that, Securityholders entitled to
      the
      money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an
      applicable abandoned property law designates another person. 

     

    Section
      8.6 Reinstatement. 

     

    If
      the
      Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government
      Obligations in accordance with Sections 8.1, 8.3 or 8.4, as the case may be,
      by
      reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any
      court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting
      such application, the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the
      Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred
      pursuant to Section 8.1, 8.3 or 8.4, as the case may be, until such time as
      the
      Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government
      Obligations in accordance with Section 8.1, 8.3 or 8.4, as the case may be;
      provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of,
      premium, if any, or interest on any Securities because of reinstatement of
      its
      obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of
      such Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government
      Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

      of
      Securities of any Series as permitted by this Indenture; 

     

    (f)
      to
      evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor
      Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more Series and to add to
      or
      change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide
      for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one
      Trustee; or 

     

    (g)
      to
      comply
      with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification
      of
      this Indenture under the TIA. 

     

    Section
      9.2 With Consent of Holders. 

     

    The
      Company and the Trustee may enter into a supplemental indenture with the written
      consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the
      outstanding Securities of each Series affected by such supplemental indenture
      (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange
      offer
      for the Securities of such Series), for the purpose of adding any provisions
      to
      or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture
      or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of
      the
      Securityholders of each such Series. Except as provided in Section 6.13, the
      Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities
      of each Series affected by such waiver by notice to the Trustee (including
      consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the
      Securities of such Series) may waive compliance by the Company with any
      provision of this Indenture or the Securities with respect to such Series.
      

     

    It
      shall
      not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Securities under this Section
      9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture or
      waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance
      thereof. After a supplemental indenture or waiver under this Section becomes
      effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders of Securities affected thereby
      and, if any Bearer Securities affected thereby are outstanding, publish on
      one
      occasion in an Authorized Newspaper, a notice briefly describing the
      supplemental indenture or waiver. Any failure by the Company to mail or publish
      such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or
      affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver. 

     

    Section
      9.3 Limitations. 

     

    Without
      the consent of each Securityholder affected, an amendment or waiver may not:
      

     

    (a)
      change
      the amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement
      or waiver; 

     

    (b)
      reduce
      the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest (including default
      interest) on any Security; 

     

    (c)
      reduce
      the principal or change the Stated Maturity of any Security or reduce the amount
      of, or postpone the date fixed for, the payment of any sinking fund or analogous
      obligation; 

     

    (d)
      reduce
      the principal amount of Discount Securities payable upon acceleration of the
      maturity thereof; 

     

    (e)
      waive
      a
      Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or interest,
      if
      any, on any Security (except a rescission of acceleration of the Securities
      of
      any Series by the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the
      outstanding Securities of such Series and a waiver of the payment default that
      resulted from such acceleration); 

     

    (f)
      make
      the
      principal of or interest, if any, on any Security payable in any currency other
      than that stated in the Security; 

     

    (g)
      make
      any
      change in Sections 6.8, 6.13, 9.3, 10.15 or 10.16; or

    (h)
      waive
      a
      redemption payment with respect to any Security or change any of the provisions
      with respect to the redemption of any Securities. 

     

    Section
      9.4 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 

     

    Every
      amendment to this Indenture or the Securities of one or more Series shall be
      set
      forth in a supplemental indenture hereto that complies with the TIA as then
      in
      effect. 

     

    Section
      9.5 Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

     

    Until
      an
      amendment or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Security
      is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security
      or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s
      Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However,
      any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to his Security
      or portion of a Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before
      the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. 

     

    Any
      amendment or waiver once effective shall bind every Securityholder of each
      Series affected by such amendment or waiver unless it is of the type described
      in any of clauses (a) through (g) of Section 9.3. In that case, the amendment
      or
      waiver shall bind each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every
      subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the
      same
      debt as the consenting Holder’s Security. 

     

    Section
      9.6 Notation on or Exchange of Securities. 

     

    The
      Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver on any
      Security of any Series thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for
      Securities of that Series may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate upon
      request new Securities of that Series that reflect the amendment or waiver.
      

     

    Section
      9.7 Trustee Protected. 

     

    In
      executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental
      indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts
      created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and
      (subject to Section 7.1) shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon,
      an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of
      such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The
      Trustee shall sign all supplemental indentures, except that the Trustee need
      not
      sign any supplemental indenture that adversely affects its rights.

    Section
      10.15 Securities in a Foreign Currency or in ECU. 

     

    Unless
      otherwise specified in a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto
      or an
      Officers’ Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.2 of this Indenture with
      respect to a particular Series of Securities, whenever for purposes of this
      Indenture any action may be taken by the Holders of a specified percentage
      in
      aggregate principal amount of Securities of all Series or all Series affected
      by
      a particular action at the time outstanding and, at such time, there are
      outstanding Securities of any Series which are denominated in a coin or currency
      other than Dollars (including ECUs), then the principal amount of Securities
      of
      such Series which shall be deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of taking
      such action shall be that amount of Dollars that could be obtained for such
      amount at the Market Exchange Rate at such time. For purposes of this Section
      10.15, “Market Exchange Rate” shall mean the noon Dollar buying rate in New York
      City for cable transfers of that currency as published by the Federal Reserve
      Bank of New York; provided, however, in the case of ECUs, Market Exchange Rate
      shall mean the rate of exchange determined by the Commission of the European
      Union (or any successor thereto) as published in the Official Journal of the
      European Union (such publication or any successor publication, the “Journal”).
      If such Market Exchange Rate is not available for any reason with respect to
      such currency, the Trustee shall use, in its sole discretion and without
      liability on its part, such quotation of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York
      or, in the case of ECUs, the rate of exchange as published in the Journal,
      as of
      the most recent available date, or quotations or, in the case of ECUs, rates
      of
      exchange from one or more major banks in The City of New York or in the country
      of issue of the currency in question or, in the case of ECUs, in Luxembourg
      or
      such other quotations or, in the case of ECUs, rates of exchange as the Trustee,
      upon consultation with the Company, shall deem appropriate. The provisions
      of
      this paragraph shall apply in determining the equivalent principal amount in
      respect of Securities of a Series denominated in currency other than Dollars
      in
      connection with any action taken by Holders of Securities pursuant to the terms
      of this Indenture. 

     

    All
      decisions and determinations of the Trustee regarding the Market Exchange Rate
      or any alternative determination provided for in the preceding paragraph shall
      be in its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be
      conclusive to the extent permitted by law for all purposes and irrevocably
      binding upon the Company and all Holders. 

     

    Section
      10.16 Judgment Currency. 

     

    The
      Company agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so under
      applicable law, that (a) if for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court
      it is necessary to convert the sum due in respect of the principal of or
      interest or other amount on the Securities of any Series (the “Required
      Currency”) into a currency in which a judgment will be rendered (the “Judgment
      Currency”), the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance
      with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in The City of New
      York the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the day on which final
      unappealable judgment is entered, unless such day is not a New York Banking
      Day,
      then, the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with
      normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in The City of New York
      the
      Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the New York Banking Day
      preceding the day on which final unappealable judgment is entered and (b) its
      obligations under this Indenture to make payments in the Required Currency
      (i)
      shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, any recovery pursuant to
      any
      judgment (whether or not entered in accordance with clause (a) ), in any
      currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent that such tender
      or recovery shall result in the actual receipt, by the payee, of the full amount
      of the Required Currency expressed to be payable in respect of such payments,
      (ii) shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional cause of action for
      the purpose of recovering in the Required Currency the amount, if any, by which
      such actual receipt shall fall short of the full amount of the Required Currency
      so expressed to be payable, and (iii) shall not be affected by judgment being
      obtained for any other sum due under this Indenture. For purposes of the
      foregoing, “New York Banking Day” means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or a
      legal holiday in The City of New York on which banking institutions are
      authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close.

    In
      no
      event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in
      the
      performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly
      or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation,
      strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military
      disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions,
      loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and
      hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable
      efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry
      to
      resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

    Section
      11.1 Applicability of Article. 

     

    The
      provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the
      retirement of the Securities of a Series, except as otherwise permitted or
      required by any form of Security of such Series issued pursuant to this
      Indenture. 

     

    The
      minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of the
      Securities of any Series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund
      payment” and any other amount provided for by the terms of Securities of such
      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 11.2. Each
      sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any
      Series as provided for by the terms of the Securities of such Series.

     

    Section
      11.2 Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

     

    The
      Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment
      with
      respect to the Securities of any Series to be made pursuant to the terms of
      such
      Securities (1) deliver outstanding Securities of such Series to which such
      sinking fund payment is applicable (other than any of such Securities previously
      called for mandatory sinking fund redemption) and (2) apply as credit Securities
      of such Series to which such sinking fund payment is applicable and which have
      been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of
      such Series of Securities (except pursuant to any mandatory sinking fund) or
      through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments or other
      optional redemptions pursuant to the terms of such Securities, provided that
      such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall
      be
      received by the Trustee, together with an Officers’ Certificate with respect
      thereto, not later than 15 days prior to the date on which the Trustee begins
      the process of selecting Securities for redemption, and shall be credited for
      such purpose by the Trustee at the 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. If as a result of the delivery or
      credit of Securities in lieu of cash payments pursuant to this Section 11.2,
      the
      principal amount of Securities of such Series to be redeemed in order to exhaust
      the aforesaid cash payment shall be less than $100,000, the Trustee need not
      call Securities of such Series for redemption, except upon receipt of a Company
      Order that such action be taken, and such cash payment shall be held by the
      Trustee or a Paying Agent and applied to the next succeeding sinking fund
      payment, provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall from
      time to time upon receipt of a Company Order pay over and deliver to the Company
      any cash payment so being held by the Trustee or such Paying Agent upon delivery
      by the Company to the Trustee of Securities of that Series purchased by the
      Company having an unpaid principal amount equal to the cash payment required
      to
      be released to the Company.

    Section
      11.3 Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 

     

    Not
      less
      than 45 days (unless otherwise indicated in the Board Resolution, supplemental
      indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate in respect of a particular Series of
      Securities) 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 mandatory sinking fund payment for
      that Series pursuant to the terms of that Series, the portion thereof, if any,
      which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any,
      which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting of Securities of that
      Series pursuant to Section 11.2, and the optional amount, if any, to be added
      in
      cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and the Company shall
      thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein specified. Not less than 30
      days (unless otherwise indicated in the Board Resolution, Officers’ Certificate
      or supplemental indenture in respect of a particular Series of Securities)
      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 3.2 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 3.3. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such
      Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections
      3.4, 3.5 and 3.6. 

     

    ARTICLE
      XII 

     

    SUBORDINATION
      OF SECURITIES 

     

    Section
      12.1 Agreement of Subordination. 

     

    The
      Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Securities issued hereunder
      by
      his acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that all Securities shall
      be issued subject to the provisions of this Article XII; and each Person holding
      any Security, whether upon original issue or upon transfer, assignment or
      exchange thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions.

     

    The
      payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all Securities
      (including, but not limited to, the redemption price with respect to the
      Securities called for redemption in accordance with Article III as provided
      in
      the Indenture) issued hereunder shall, to the extent and in the manner
      hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and subject in right of payment to the
      prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, whether outstanding at the
      date of this Indenture or thereafter incurred. 

     

    No
      provision of this Article XII shall prevent the occurrence of any default or
      Event of Default hereunder. 

     

    Section
      12.2 Payments to Holders. 

     

    No
      payment shall be made with respect to the principal of, or premium, if any,
      or
      interest on the Securities (including, but not limited to, the redemption price
      with respect to the Securities to be called for redemption in accordance with
      Article III as provided in the Indenture), except payments and distributions
      made by the Trustee as permitted by the first or second paragraph of Section
      12.5, if: 

     

    (i)
      a
      default
      in the payment of principal, premium, interest, rent or other obligations due
      on
      any Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing (or, in the case of Senior
      Indebtedness for which there is a period of grace, in the event of such a
      default that continues beyond the period of grace, if any, specified in the
      instrument or lease evidencing such Senior Indebtedness), unless and until
      such
      default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist; or

     

    (ii)
      a
      default, other than a payment default, on a Designated Senior Indebtedness
      occurs and is continuing that then permits holders of such Designated Senior
      Indebtedness to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a notice of
      the
      default (a “Payment Blockage Notice”) from a Representative or the Company.

     

    If
      the
      Trustee receives any Payment Blockage Notice pursuant to clause (ii) above,
      no
      subsequent Payment Blockage Notice shall be effective for purposes of this
      Section unless and until (a) at least 365 days shall have elapsed since the
      initial effectiveness of the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice, and
      (b)
      all scheduled payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the
      Securities that have come due have been paid in full in cash. No nonpayment
      default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment
      Blockage Notice to the Trustee shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent
      Payment Blockage Notice.

    The
      Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of the
      Securities upon the earlier of: 

     

    (1)
      the
      date
      upon which the default is cured or waived or ceases to exist, or 

     

    (2)
      in
      the
      case of a default referred to in clause (ii) above, 179 days pass after notice
      is received if the maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness has not
      been
      accelerated, unless this Article XII otherwise prohibits the payment or
      distribution at the time of such payment or distribution. 

     

    Upon
      any
      payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind
      or
      character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any
      dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company,
      whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership
      or
      other proceedings, all amounts due or to become due upon all Senior Indebtedness
      shall first be paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders
      of such Senior Indebtedness, or payment thereof in accordance with its terms
      provided for in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior
      Indebtedness, before any payment is made on account of the principal of,
      premium, if any, or interest on the Securities (except payments made pursuant
      to
      Article VI from monies deposited with the Trustee pursuant thereto prior to
      commencement of proceedings for such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or
      reorganization); and upon any such dissolution or winding-up or liquidation
      or
      reorganization of the Company or bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other
      proceeding, any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company
      of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which
      the
      Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled, except for the
      provision of this Article XII, shall (except as aforesaid) be paid by the
      Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent
      or
      other Person making such payment or distribution, or by the Holders of the
      Securities or by the Trustee under this Indenture if received by them or it,
      directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness (pro rata to such holders on
      the
      basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness held by such holders,
      or
      as otherwise required by law or a court order) or their representative or
      representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant
      to
      which any instruments evidencing any Senior Indebtedness may have been issued,
      as their respective interests may appear, to the extent necessary to pay all
      Senior Indebtedness in full, in cash or other payment satisfactory to the
      holders of such Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent
      payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness, before
      any
      payment or distribution or provision therefor is made to the Holders of the
      Securities or to the Trustee. 

     

    For
      purposes of this Article XII, the words, “cash, property or securities” shall
      not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or
      readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided
      for
      by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the payment of which is
      subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Article XII with respect
      to
      the Securities to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness which may at the time
      be outstanding; provided that (i) the Senior Indebtedness is assumed by the
      new
      corporation, if any, resulting from any reorganization or readjustment, and
      (ii)
      the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness (other than leases which are
      not assumed by the Company or the new corporation, as the case may be) are
      not,
      without the consent of such holders, altered by such reorganization or
      readjustment. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the
      Company into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the
      Company following the conveyance or transfer of its property as an entirety,
      or
      substantially as an entirety, to another corporation upon the terms and
      conditions provided for in Article V shall not be deemed a dissolution,
      winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section
      12.2
      if such other corporation shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger,
      conveyance or transfer, comply with the conditions stated in Article V.

     

    In
      the
      event of the acceleration of the Securities because of an Event of Default,
      no
      payment or distribution shall be made to the Trustee or any Holder of Securities
      in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities
      (including, but not limited to, the redemption price with respect to the
      Securities called for redemption in accordance with Article 3 as provided in
      the
      Indenture), except payments and distributions made by the Trustee as permitted
      by the first or second paragraph of Section 12.5, until all Senior Indebtedness
      has been paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders
      of
      Senior Indebtedness or such acceleration is rescinded in accordance with the
      terms of this Indenture. If payment of the Securities is accelerated because
      of
      an Event of Default, the Company shall promptly notify holders of Senior
      Indebtedness of the acceleration at the address set forth in the notice from
      the
      Agent (or successor agent) to the Trustee as being the address to which the
      Trustee should send its notice pursuant to this Section 12.2, unless there
      are
      no payment obligations of the Company thereunder and all obligations thereunder
      to extend credit have been terminated or expired.

    In
      the
      event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, any payment or
      distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in
      cash,
      property or securities (including, without limitation, by way of setoff or
      otherwise), prohibited by the foregoing, shall be received by the Trustee or
      the
      Holders of the Securities before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in
      cash
      or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, or
      provision is made for such payment thereof in accordance with its terms in
      cash
      or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, such
      payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall
      be
      paid over or delivered to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their
      representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any
      indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Indebtedness
      may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, as calculated
      by
      the Company, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining
      unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in cash
      or
      other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, after
      giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders
      of
      such Senior Indebtedness. 

     

    Nothing
      in Section 12.1 or 12.2 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee
      under or pursuant to Section 7.7. This Section 12.2 shall be subject to the
      further provisions of Section 12.5. 

     

    Section
      12.3 Subrogation of Securities. 

     

    Subject
      to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the rights of the Holders
      of
      the Securities shall be subrogated to the extent of the payments or
      distributions made to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the
      provisions of this Article XII (equally and ratably with the holders of all
      indebtedness of the Company which by its express terms is subordinated to other
      indebtedness of the Company to substantially the same extent as the Securities
      are subordinated and is entitled to like rights of subrogation) to the rights
      of
      the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of
      cash,
      property or securities of the Company applicable to the Senior Indebtedness
      until the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall
      be
      paid in full; and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or
      distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property
      or
      securities to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be
      entitled except for the provisions of this Article XII, and no payment over
      pursuant to the provisions of this Article XII, to or for the benefit of the
      holders of Senior Indebtedness by Holders of the Securities or the Trustee,
      shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior
      Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment
      by
      the Company to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness; and no payments or
      distributions of cash, property or securities to or for the benefit of the
      Holders of the Securities pursuant to the subrogation provisions of this Article
      XII, which would otherwise have been paid to the holders of Senior Indebtedness
      shall be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or for the account of the
      Securities. It is understood that the provisions of this Article XII are and
      are
      intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of the Holders
      of the Securities, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness,
      on the other hand. 

     

    Nothing
      contained in this Article XII or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the
      Securities is intended to or shall impair, as among the Company, its creditors
      other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the
      Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional,
      to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of (and premium, if any)
      and interest on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable
      in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative
      rights of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company other
      than
      the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein
      prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security from exercising all remedies
      otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject
      to the rights, if any, under this Article XII of the holders of Senior
      Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received
      upon the exercise of any such remedy.

    Upon
      any
      payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article
      XII, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, and the Holders
      of
      the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any
      court of competent jurisdiction in which such bankruptcy, dissolution,
      winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a
      certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent
      or other person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee
      or
      to the Holders of the Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons
      entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior
      Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or
      payable thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article XII.
      

     

    Section
      12.4 Authorization to Effect Subordination. 

     

    Each
      Holder of a Security by the holder’s acceptance thereof authorizes and directs
      the Trustee on the holder’s behalf to take such action as may be necessary or
      appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Article XII
      and
      appoints the Trustee to act as the holder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all
      such purposes. If the Trustee does not file a proper proof of claim or proof
      of
      debt in the form required in any proceeding referred to in Section 6.3 hereof
      at
      least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim, the holders
      of any Senior Indebtedness or their representatives are hereby authorized to
      file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders of the Securities.
      

     

    Section
      12.5 Notice to Trustee. 

     

    The
      Company shall give prompt written notice in the form of an Officers’ Certificate
      to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee and to any paying agent of any fact
      known to the Company which would prohibit the making of any payment of monies
      to
      or by the Trustee or any paying agent in respect of the Securities pursuant
      to
      the provisions of this Article XII. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
      Article XII or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not
      be
      charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the
      making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the
      Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article XII, unless and until
      a
      Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof
      at
      the Corporate Trust Office from the Company (in the form of an Officers’
Certificate) or a Representative or a holder or holders of Senior Indebtedness
      or from any trustee thereof; and before the receipt of any such written notice,
      the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, shall be entitled in
      all
      respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided that if on a date not
      fewer than two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof
      any such monies may become payable for any purpose (including, without
      limitation, the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest
      on
      any Security) the Trustee shall not have received, with respect to such monies,
      the notice provided for in this Section 12.5, then, anything herein contained
      to
      the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority
      to
      receive such monies and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were
      received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may
      be
      received by it on or after such prior date. 

     

    Notwithstanding
      anything in this Article XII to the contrary, nothing shall prevent any payment
      by the Trustee to the Holders of monies deposited with it pursuant to Section
      8.1, and any such payment shall not be subject to the provisions of Section
      12.1
      or 12.2. 

     

    The
      Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, shall be entitled to rely
      on
      the delivery to it of a written notice by a Representative or a person
      representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee on
      behalf of such holder) to establish that such notice has been given by a
      Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness or a trustee on behalf of
      any
      such holder or holders. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith
      that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any person as
      a
      holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution
      pursuant to this Article XII, the Trustee may request such person to furnish
      evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of
      Senior Indebtedness held by such person, the extent to which such person is
      entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts
      pertinent to the rights of such person under this Article XII, and if such
      evidence is not furnished the Trustee may defer any payment to such person
      pending judicial determination as to the right of such person to receive such
      payment.

    Section
      12.6 Trustee’s Relation to Senior Indebtedness. 

     

    The
      Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set
      forth
      in this Article XII in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time held
      by
      it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing
      in Section 7.11 or elsewhere in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of
      any
      of its rights as such holder. 

     

    With
      respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform
      or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically
      set
      forth in this Article XII, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect
      to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against
      the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the
      holders of Senior Indebtedness and, subject to the provisions of Section 7.1,
      the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Senior Indebtedness if it
      shall
      pay over or deliver to Holders of Securities, the Company or any other person
      money or assets to which any holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled
      by
      virtue of this Article XII or otherwise. 

     

    Section
      12.7 No Impairment of Subordination. 

     

    No
      right
      of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce
      subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced
      or
      impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any
      act
      or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance
      by
      the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture,
      regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or otherwise
      be charged with. 

     

    Section
      12.8 Article Applicable to Paying Agents. 

     

    If
      at any
      time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the
      Company and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article
      shall (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to
      and
      including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and
      purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition to
      or in
      place of the Trustee; provided, however, that the first paragraph of Section
      12.5 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company if it or
      such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent. 

     

    Section
      12.9 Senior Indebtedness Entitled to Rely. 

     

    The
      holders of Senior Indebtedness (including, without limitation, Designated Senior
      Indebtedness) shall have the right to rely upon this Article XII, and no
      amendment or modification of the provisions contained herein shall diminish
      the
      rights of such holders unless such holders shall have agreed in writing thereto.

    RULE
      10b5-1 STOCK REPURCHASE PLAN

    

    

    This
      Rule
      10b5-1 Stock Repurchase Plan is made and entered into this 12th day of June,
      2008 by and among Reliv International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), and Canaccord Adams Inc. (“Canaccord Adams”).

    

    WHEREAS,
      the Company’s Board of Directors has determined that it is in the best interests
      of the Company and its shareholders that the Company institute and perform
      a
      plan pursuant to which it will repurchase up to 500,000 shares of its Common
      Stock;

    

    WHEREAS,
      the Company’s Board of Directors desires to conduct its share repurchases under
      the safe harbor provisions of Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 promulgated under
      the
      Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”);

    

    WHEREAS,
      the Company accordingly desires to establish the plan provided herein to effect
      the repurchase of shares of its Common Stock;

    

    WHEREAS,
      the Company desires to engage Canaccord Adams, as broker, to effect the

      THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the terms, covenants and

      of the Company. The Company shall pay to Canaccord Adams a commission of $0.04
      per share of Common Stock repurchased pursuant to this Plan. In accordance
      with
      Canacccord Adams’ customary procedures, Canaccord Adams will deposit shares of
      Common Stock purchased hereunder into an account established by Canaccord Adams
      for the Company against payment to Canaccord Adams of the purchase price
      therefore and commissions and other amounts in respect thereof payable by the
      Company under this Plan. The Company will be notified of all transactions
      pursuant to customary trade confirmations.

    

    2. Plan
      Term.

      Adams under this Plan shall reach 500,000;

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    b. The

      liquidation, reorganization or other relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency
      or

    3. Suspension
      or Termination.
      This
      Agreement and the obligations of Canaccord Adams to engage in purchases of
      common stock of the Company for the account of the Company may be suspended
      or
      terminated by Canaccord Adams, in its discretion, at any time when:

    

    a. Canaccord
      Adams shall determine, in its judgment, that any representation or warranty
      of
      the Company made herein shall be false or misleading;

    

    b. The
      Company shall have violated any of its obligations hereunder;

    

    c. Canaccord
      Adams shall determine (based on the advice of counsel) that any purchase
      effected pursuant to this Plan violates (or in the opinion of such counsel
      is
      reasonably likely to violate) any applicable law or regulation.

    

    Canaccord
      Adams shall not purchase any shares of Common Stock under this Plan immediately
      after its receipt of notice from the Company requesting suspension of the Plan

      resume purchases in accordance with this Plan once Canaccord Adams receives
      written notice from the Company that the restriction causing the suspension
      has
      been removed or ended. The resumption of purchases will be made as soon as
      possible but will require up to two business days advance notice.

    

    4. Trading

    5.1 Subject
      to the restrictions set forth in Section 4 hereof, Canaccord Adams will use
      its
      reasonable efforts, consistent with ordinary principles of best execution,
      during the Term of this Agreement to purchase the maximum number of shares
      available for purchase up to the Maximum Shares on each Trading Day at the
      then-prevailing market price. The Company acknowledges that the number of shares
      which Canaccord Adams is able to purchase for its account on any Trading Day
      may
      be less than the Maximum Shares.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    5.2. For
      purposes of this Agreement:

    

    (a)
      “Maximum Shares” shall mean an amount shares of the common stock of the Company
      equal to 25% of the average daily trading volume for such stock during the
      four
      calendar weeks preceding the week in which the purchase is made, less any shares
      purchased by an Affiliate of the Company during such Trading Day.

    

    (b)
      “Trading Day” shall mean any day that the principal market or exchange on which
      the common stock of the Company is traded is open for business.

    

    6. Representations,
      Warranties and Covenants of the Company.
      The
      Company represents, warrants and covenants to Canaccord Adams as
      follows:

      concerning the Company or its securities;

    

    6.2 The
      Company is entering into this Plan in good faith, with the intent that this
      Plan
      comply with the affirmative defense established by Rule 10b5-1 under the

      or scheme to evade compliance with the federal securities laws.

    

    6.3 The
      Company will not communicate, directly or indirectly, any material nonpublic
      information relating to the Company or its securities to any employee of

      executing this Plan. 

    

    6.4 The
      execution and delivery of this Plan, and the transactions contemplated
      hereunder, do not: (i) contravene any provision of applicable law or any
      agreement or other instrument binding upon the Company or any of its affiliates;
      or (ii) contravene any order or decree of any governmental body, agency or
      court
      having jurisdiction over the Company or its affiliates. There is no litigation,
      arbitration or other proceeding pending, or to the Company’s knowledge
      threatened, that would prevent or interfere with the transactions contemplated
      by this Plan.

    

    6.5 The
      Company will comply with all applicable laws in connection with the performance
      of this Plan.

      and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses
      reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such
      action or claim) arising our of or attributable to Canaccord Adams’s actions
      taken or not taken in compliance with this Plan or arising out of or
      attributable to any breach by the Company of this Plan (including the Company’s
      representations and warranties hereunder) or any violation by the Company of
      applicable laws or regulations, except to the extent such losses are due to
      Canaccord Adams’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. This indemnification
      obligation will survive the termination of this Plan.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    7.2 Notwithstanding

      for: (i) special, indirect, punitive, exemplary or consequential damages, or
      incidental losses or damages of any kind, including without limitation lost
      profits or lost savings, regardless of whether arising from breach of contract,
      warranty, tort, strict liability or otherwise, and even if advised of the
      possibility of such losses or damages or if such losses or damages could have
      been reasonably foreseen; or (ii) any failure to perform or to cease performance
      or any delay in performance that results from a cause or circumstance that
      is
      beyond Canaccord Adams’s reasonable control, including but not limited to
      failure of electronic or mechanical equipment, strikes, failure of common
      carrier or utility systems, acts of terrorism or war, severe weather, market
      disruptions or other causes commonly known as “acts of God.”

    

    7.3 The
      Company has consulted with its own advisors as to the legal, tax, business,
      financial and related aspects of its adoption and implementation of this Plan.
      The Company has not relied upon the advice of Canaccord Adams or any person
      affiliated with Canaccord Adams with respect to the legal, tax, business,
      financial and related aspects of its adoption and implementation of this Plan,
      including with respect to the availability of an affirmative defense under
      Rule
      10b5-1 or the applicability of any other federal or state securities laws.
      The
      Company acknowledges that Canaccord Adams is not acting as its fiduciary or
      advisor.

    8.4 This
      Plan
      may be modified or amended only by a writing signed by the parties hereto.
      The
      rights and obligations of the Company under this Plan may not be assigned or

    8.5. If
      any
      provision of this Plan is or becomes inconsistent with any applicable present

      future law, rule or regulation, that provision will be deemed modified or,

      necessary, rescinded in order to comply with the relevant law, rule or
      regulation. All other provisions of this Plan will continue and remain in full
      force and effect.

    

    8.6. This
      Plan
      will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
      Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to such state's conflict of laws
      rules.

    

    8.7. THIS
      SECTION 8.7 IS A PRE-DISPUTE ARBITRATION PROVISION

    

    (a)
       Any
      dispute between the Company and Canaccord Adams arising out of, relating to
      or
      in connection with this Plan or any transaction relating to this Plan will
      be
      determined by arbitration only before the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. or
      the
      National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., as the Company may elect.
      If
      the Company makes no written election addressed to Canaccord Adams by registered
      mail within five days after receiving a written demand for arbitration from
      Canaccord Adams, the Company authorizes Canaccord Adams to elect one of the
      above listed forums for me. Unless the rules of the arbitral forum dictate
      otherwise, any arbitration proceeding between the Company and Canaccord Adams
      will be held at a location at which the selected forum regularly conducts such
      proceedings nearest to the Canaccord Adams office carrying the Company’s
      accounts at the time the claim arose; this venue will apply even if the Company
      has related disputes with other parties which cannot be resolved in the same
      location. Any arbitration proceeding between the Company and Canaccord Adams
      will be heard and decided by a panel of not fewer than three arbitrators. The
      law of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts will apply in all respects, including
      but not limited to determination of applicable statutes of limitation and
      available remedies. The award of the arbitrator or a majority of arbitrators
      will be final, and judgment on the award may be entered in any state or federal
      court having jurisdiction.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        5

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    (b) The
      Company represents that it understands the terms of the arbitration clause
      contained in this Section 8.7 as follows: (i) arbitration is final and binding
      on the parties; (ii) the parties are waiving their right to seek remedies in
      court, including the right to jury trial; (iii) pre-arbitration discovery is
      generally more limited than and different from court proceedings; (iv) the
      arbitrators' award is not required to include factual findings or legal
      reasoning, and any party's right to appeal or seek modification of rulings
      by
      the arbitrators is strictly limited; (v) the panel of arbitrators will typically
      include a minority of arbitrators who were or are affiliated with the securities
      industry; (vi) no person will bring a putative or certified class action to
      arbitration, nor seek to enforce any pre-dispute arbitration agreement against
      any person who has initiated in court a putative class action or who is a member
      of a putative class who has not opted out of the class with respect to any
      claims encompassed by the putative class action until: (a) the class
      certification is denied; (b) the class is decertified; or (c) the customer
      is
      excluded from the class by the court. Such forbearance to enforce an agreement
      to arbitrate will not constitute a waiver of any rights under this Plan except
      to the extent stated herein.

    

    NOTICE:
      THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A PRE-DISPUTE ARBITRATION PROVISION IN SECTION
      8.7.

      WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have signed this Stock Repurchase Plan as
