          One-Quarter Year Benchmark Treasury, expressed as a bond equivalent on
          the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on

          the Initial Remarketing Date of three leading United States government
          securities dealers selected by the Reset Agent (after consultation

          Section 1.2 Compliance Certificates and Opinions.

          Except as otherwise expressly provided by this Agreement, upon any
application or request by the Company to the Agent to take any action under any
provision of this Agreement, the Company shall furnish to the Agent an Officer's
Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this
Agreement relating to the proposed action have been complied with and, if
reasonably requested by the Agent, an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Agent
stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent, if
any, have been complied with, except that in the case of any such application or
request as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by
any provision of this Agreement relating to such particular application or
request, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished.

          Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a
condition or covenant provided for in this Agreement shall include:

          (1)  a statement that each Person signing such certificate or opinion
     has read such covenant or condition and the definitions herein relating
     thereto;

                                      14
<PAGE>

          (2)  a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination
     or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such
     certificate or opinion are based;

          (3)  a statement that, in the opinion of each such Person, he or she
     or it has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable
     such individual to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such
     covenant or condition has been complied with; and

          (4)  a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such Person,
     such condition or covenant has been complied with.

          Section 1.3 Form of Documents Delivered to Agent.

          In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or
covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all
such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such
Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one
such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one
or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify
or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

          Any certificate or opinion of the Company may be based, insofar as it
relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations
by, counsel, unless the Company knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care
should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to
the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any
such certificate or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to
factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, the
Company stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in
the possession of the Company unless the Person giving such certificate or
Opinion of Counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know,
that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters
are erroneous.

          Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more
applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other
instruments under this Agreement, they may, but need not, be consolidated and
form one instrument.

          Section 1.4 Acts of Holders; Record Dates.

          (a)  Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by
Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of
substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly
appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such
action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered
to the Agent and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such
instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced
thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Holders signing
such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of
a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for

                                      15
<PAGE>

any purpose of this Agreement and (subject to Section 7.1) conclusive in favor
of the Agent and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section.

          (b)  The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved in any manner which the Agent deems
sufficient.

          (c)  The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Income PRIDES
Register or the Growth PRIDES Register, as the case may be.

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

          (e)  The Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose of
determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to give, make or take
any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action provided or permitted by this Agreement to be given, made or taken by
Holders of Securities. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the
Holders of the Outstanding Income PRIDES and the Outstanding Growth PRIDES, as
the case may be, on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to
take the relevant action with respect to the Income PRIDES or the Growth PRIDES,
as the case may be, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record
date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on
or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite number of
Outstanding Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be
construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action
for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph
(whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action
by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph
shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the
requisite number of Outstanding Securities on the date such action is taken.
Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company,
at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action
by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Agent in
writing and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 1.6.

          With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the
Company may designate any date as the "Expiration Date" and from time to time
may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no
such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date
is given to the Agent in writing, and to each Holder of Securities in the manner
set forth in Section 1.6, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an
Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant
to this Section, the Company shall be deemed to have initially designated the
180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto,
subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this
paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than
the 180th day after the applicable record date.

or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Agreement to
be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

          (1)  the Agent by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for
     every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if
     made, given, furnished or filed in writing and personally delivered or
     mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Agent at 600 Travis Street,

     other address previously furnished in writing by the Agent to the Holders
     and the Company; or

          (2)  the Company by the Agent or by any Holder shall be sufficient for
     every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if
     made, given, furnished or filed in writing and personally delivered or
     mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company at Electronic Data
     Systems Corporation, 5400 Legacy Drive Plano, Texas 75024-3105, Attention:
     Treasurer, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the
     Agent by the Company; or

          (3)  the Collateral Agent by the Agent, the Company or any Holder
     shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein
     expressly provided) if made, given, furnished or filed in writing and
     personally delivered or mailed, first-class postage prepaid, addressed to
     the Collateral Agent at One Rodney Square, 920 King Street, Suite 102,
     Wilmington, Delaware 19081, Attention Edward L. Truitt, or at any other

     Agent, the Company and the Holders; or

          (4)  the Indenture Trustee by the Company shall be sufficient for

          Section 1.6    Notice to Holders; Waiver.

          Where this Agreement provides for notice to Holders of any event, such
notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided)
if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected
by such event, at its address as it appears in the applicable Register, not
later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed
for the giving of such notice.  In any case where notice to Holders is given by
mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so
mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice
with respect to other Holders.  Where this Agreement provides for notice in any
manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive
such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be

                                      17
<PAGE>

the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with
the Agent, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of
any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

          In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by
reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail,
then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Agent shall
constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

          Section 1.7    Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

          The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are
for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

          Section 1.8    Successors and Assigns.

          All covenants and agreements in this Agreement by the Company shall
bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

          Section 1.9    Separability Clause.

          In case any provision in this Agreement or in the Securities shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then, to the extent permitted by law, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof and
thereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

          Section 1.10   Benefits of Agreement.

          Nothing in this Agreement or in the Securities, express or implied,
shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors
hereunder and, to the extent provided hereby, the Holders, any benefits or any
legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement.  The Holders
from time to time shall be beneficiaries of this Agreement and shall be bound by

Holder for the period from and after any such Payment Date unless there shall be
a default in the payment due on such next succeeding Business Day, except that,
if such next succeeding Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year,
such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day with the
same force and effect as if made on the applicable Payment Date.

          Section 1.13   Counterparts.

          This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts by the
parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed and
delivered, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall together
constitute one and the same instrument.

          A copy of this Agreement shall be available at all reasonable times
during normal business hours at the Corporate Trust Office for inspection by any

Chairman of the Board, its President or one of its Vice Presidents and its
Treasurer or one of its Assistant Treasurers or its Secretary or one of its
Assistant Secretaries.  The signature of any of these officers on the
Certificates may be manual or facsimile.

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

          No Purchase Contract evidenced by a Certificate shall be valid until
such Certificate has been executed on behalf of the Holder by the manual
signature of an authorized signatory of the Agent, as such Holder's attorney-in-
fact.  Such signature by an authorized signatory of the Agent shall be
conclusive evidence that the Holder of such Certificate has entered into the
Purchase Contracts evidenced by such Certificate.

          Each Certificate shall be dated the date of its authentication.

                                      21
<PAGE>

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

          Section 3.4    Temporary Certificates.

          Pending the preparation of definitive Certificates, the Company shall
execute and deliver to the Agent, and the Agent shall authenticate, execute on
behalf of the Holders, and deliver, in lieu of such definitive Certificates,
temporary Certificates that are in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A
or Exhibit B hereto, as the case may be, with such letters, numbers or other
marks of identification or designation and such legends or endorsements printed,
lithographed or engraved thereon as may be required by the rules of any
securities exchange on which the Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES are listed, or
as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers of the Company
executing such Certificates, as evidenced by their execution of the
Certificates.

          If temporary Certificates are issued, the Company will cause
definitive Certificates to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the
preparation of definitive Certificates, the temporary Certificates shall be
exchangeable for definitive Certificates upon surrender of the temporary
Certificates at the Corporate Trust Office or the New York Office, at the
expense of the Company and without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for
cancellation of any one or more temporary Certificates, the Company shall
execute and deliver to the Agent, and the Agent shall authenticate, execute on
behalf of the Holder, and deliver in exchange therefor, one or more definitive
Certificates of like tenor and denominations and evidencing a like number of
Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES, as the case may be, as the temporary Certificate
or Certificates so surrendered. Until so exchanged, the temporary Certificates
shall in all respects evidence the same benefits and the same obligations with
respect to the Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES, as the case may be, evidenced
thereby as definitive Certificates.

          Section 3.5    Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

          The Agent shall keep at the Corporate Trust Office a Register (the
"Income PRIDES Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it
may prescribe, the Agent shall provide for the registration of Income PRIDES
Certificates and of transfers of Income PRIDES Certificates (the Agent, in such
capacity, the "Income PRIDES Registrar") and a Register (the "Growth PRIDES
Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,
the Agent shall provide for the registration of Growth PRIDES Certificates and
of transfers of Growth PRIDES Certificates (the Agent, in such capacity, the
"Growth PRIDES Registrar").

          Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at the
Corporate Trust Office or the New York Office, the Company shall execute and
deliver to the Agent, and the Agent shall authenticate, execute on behalf of the
designated transferee or transferees, and deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of

                                      22
<PAGE>

any authorized like tenor, and evidencing a like number of Income PRIDES or
Growth PRIDES, as the case may be.

          At the option of the Holder, Certificates may be exchanged for other
Certificates, of any authorized denominations and evidencing a like number of
Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES, as the case may be, upon surrender of the
Certificates to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office or the New York
Office. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Company
shall execute and deliver to the Agent, and the Agent shall authenticate,
execute on behalf of the Holder, and deliver the Certificates that the Holder
making the exchange is entitled to receive.

          All Certificates issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange
of a Certificate shall evidence the ownership of the same number of Income
PRIDES or Growth PRIDES, as the case may be, and be entitled to the same
benefits and subject to the same obligations, under this Agreement as the Income
PRIDES or Growth PRIDES, as the case may be, evidenced by the Certificate
surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

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

          No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of a Certificate, but the Company and the Agent may require payment
from the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or
exchange of Certificates, other than any exchanges pursuant to Sections 3.4,
3.6, 3.9 and 8.5 not involving any transfer.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to
execute and deliver to the Agent, and the Agent shall not be obligated to
authenticate, execute on behalf of the Holder and deliver, any Certificate
presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange on or
after the Business Day immediately preceding the earlier of the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date or the Termination Date.  In lieu of delivery of a new
Certificate, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions specified above in
this Section and receipt of appropriate registration or transfer instructions
from such Holder, the Agent shall (i) if the Purchase Contract Settlement Date
has occurred, deliver the shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of the
Purchase Contracts forming a part of the Securities evidenced by such
Certificate (together with any cash or other property to which the Holder is
entitled), or (ii) if a Termination Event shall have occurred prior to the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date, transfer the Notes, the appropriate
Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio or the Treasury
Securities, as the case may be, evidenced thereby, in each case subject to the
applicable conditions and in accordance with the applicable provisions of
Article Five hereof.

          Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no
transfer by any holder to any Person other than the Company of any Income
PRIDES, Growth PRIDES or Note may be made or will be recognized unless such
instrument has been surrendered and accepted for

                                      23
<PAGE>

registration of transfer in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.5,
or unless such transfer is effectuated through the book-entry system described
in Section 3.6.

          Section 3.6    Book-Entry Interests.

          The Certificates, on original issuance, will be issued in the form of
one or more fully registered Global Certificates, to be delivered to the
Depositary by, or on behalf of, the Company.  Such Global Certificate shall
initially be registered on the books and records of the Company in the name of
Cede & Co., the nominee of the Depositary, and no Beneficial Owner will receive
a definitive Certificate representing such Beneficial Owner's interest in such
Global Certificate, except as provided in Section 3.9.  The Agent shall enter
into an agreement with the Depositary if so requested by the Company.  Unless
and until definitive, fully registered Certificates have been issued to
Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 3.9:

          (a)  the provisions of this Section 3.6 shall be in full force and
effect;

          (b)  the Company and the Agent shall be entitled to deal with the
Clearing Agency for all purposes of this Agreement (including receiving
approvals, votes or consents hereunder) as the Holder of the Securities and the
sole holder of the Global Certificate(s) and shall have no obligation to the
Beneficial Owners;

          (c)  to the extent that the provisions of this Section 3.6 conflict
with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 3.6
shall control; and

          (d)  the rights of the Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only
through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law and
agreements between such Beneficial Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the
Clearing Agency Participants.  The Clearing Agency will make book entry
transfers among Clearing Agency Participants.

          Section 3.7    Notices to Holders.

          Whenever a notice or other communication to the Holders is required to
be given under this Agreement, the Company or the Agent shall give such notices
and communications to the Holders and, with respect to any Securities registered
in the name of a Clearing Agency or the nominee of a Clearing Agency, the
Company or the Agent shall, except as set forth herein, have no obligations to
the Beneficial Owners.

          Section 3.8    Appointment of Successor Clearing Agency.

          If any Clearing Agency elects to discontinue its services as
securities depositary with respect to the Securities, the Company may, in its
sole discretion, appoint a successor Clearing Agency with respect to the
Securities.

          Section 3.9    Definitive Certificates.

          If (i) a Clearing Agency elects to discontinue its services as
securities depositary with respect to the Securities and a successor Clearing
Agency is not appointed within 90 days after such discontinuance pursuant to
Section 3.8, (ii) the Company elects to terminate the book-

                                      24
<PAGE>

entry system through the Clearing Agency with respect to the Securities, or
(iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing a default by the Company in
respect of its obligations under one or more Purchase Contracts, or one or more
Notes, then upon surrender of the Global Certificates representing the Book-
Entry Interests with respect to the Securities by the Clearing Agency,
accompanied by registration instructions, the Company shall cause definitive
Certificates to be delivered to Beneficial Owners in accordance with the
instructions of the Clearing Agency.

          Section 3.10    Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Certificates.

          If any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Agent, the Company
shall execute and deliver to the Agent, and the Agent shall authenticate,
execute on behalf of the Holder, and deliver in exchange therefor, a new
Certificate at the cost of the Holder, evidencing the same number of Income
PRIDES or Growth PRIDES, as the case may be, and bearing a Certificate number
not contemporaneously outstanding.

          If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Agent (i) evidence
to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and
(ii) such security or indemnity at the cost of the Holder as may be required by
them to hold each of them and any agent of any of them harmless, then, in the
absence of notice to the Company or the Agent that such Certificate has been
acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and deliver to the
Agent, and the Agent shall authenticate, execute on behalf of the Holder, and
deliver to the Holder, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen
Certificate, a new Certificate, evidencing the same number of Income PRIDES or
Growth PRIDES, as the case may be, and bearing a Certificate number not
contemporaneously outstanding.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to
execute and deliver to the Agent, and the Agent shall not be obligated to
authenticate, execute on behalf of the Holder, and deliver to the Holder, a
Certificate on or after the Business Day immediately preceding the earlier of
the Purchase Contract Settlement Date or the Termination Date.  In lieu of
delivery of a new Certificate, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions
specified above in this Section and receipt of appropriate registration or
transfer instructions from such Holder, the Agent shall (i) if the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date has occurred, deliver the shares of Common Stock
issuable in respect of the Purchase Contracts forming a part of the Securities
evidenced by such Certificate (together with any cash or other property to which
the Holder is entitled), or (ii) if a Termination Event shall have occurred
prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, transfer the Notes, the
appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio or the
Treasury Securities, as the case may be, evidenced thereby, in each case subject
to the applicable conditions and in accordance with the applicable provisions of
Article Five hereof.

          Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the
Company and the Agent may require the payment by the Holder 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 reasonable fees and expenses of
the Agent) connected therewith.

          Every new Certificate issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any
destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall constitute an original additional
contractual obligation of the Company

                                      25
<PAGE>

and of the Holder in respect of the Security evidenced thereby, whether or not
the destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate (and the Securities evidenced thereby)
shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the
benefits and be subject to all the obligations of this Agreement equally and
proportionately with any and all other Certificates delivered 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 Certificates.

          Section 3.11   Persons Deemed Owners.

          Prior to due presentment of a Certificate for registration of
transfer, the Company and the Agent, and any agent of the Company or the Agent,
may treat the Person in whose name such Certificate is registered as the owner
of the Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES evidenced thereby, for the purpose of
receiving interest on the Notes or on the maturing quarterly interest strips of
the Treasury Portfolio, as applicable, receiving payments of Contract Adjustment
Payments (if any), for the performance of the Purchase Contracts and for all
other purposes whatsoever, whether or not any interest on the Notes shall be
overdue and notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, and neither the Company
nor the Agent, nor any agent of the Company or the Agent, shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Global Certificate,
nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Agent or any agent of the Company
or the Agent, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other
authorization furnished by any Clearing Agency (or its nominee), as a Holder,
with respect to such Global Certificate or impair, as between such Clearing
Agency and owners of beneficial interests in such Global Certificate, the
operation of customary practices governing the exercise of rights of such
Clearing Agency (or its nominee) as Holder of such Global Certificate.

          Section 3.12    Cancellation.

          All Certificates surrendered for delivery of shares of Common Stock on
or after the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, upon the transfer of Notes, the
appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio or Treasury
Securities, as the case may be, after the occurrence of a Termination Event or
pursuant to an Early Settlement, or upon the registration of a transfer or
exchange of a Security, or a Collateral Substitution or the re-establishment of
an Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES shall, if surrendered to any Person other than
the Agent, be delivered to the Agent and, if not already cancelled, shall be
promptly cancelled by it.  The Company may at any time deliver to the Agent for
cancellation any Certificates previously authenticated, executed and delivered
hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all
Certificates so delivered shall, upon Issuer Order, be promptly cancelled by the
Agent.  No Certificates shall be authenticated, executed on behalf of the Holder
and delivered in lieu of or in exchange for any Certificates cancelled as
provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement.  All
cancelled Certificates held by the Agent shall upon written request be returned
to the Company.

                                      26
<PAGE>

          If the Company or any Affiliate of the Company shall acquire any
Certificate, such acquisition shall not operate as a cancellation of such
Certificate unless and until such Certificate is delivered to the Agent
cancelled or for cancellation.

          Section 3.13    Establishment of Growth PRIDES.

          A Holder may separate the Notes or the appropriate Applicable
Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as applicable, from the related
Purchase Contracts in respect of an Income PRIDES by substituting for such Notes
or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as
the case may be, Treasury Securities in an aggregate principal amount of such
Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as specified in clause
(A) of the definition of such term) of the Treasury Portfolio, as applicable (a
"Collateral Substitution"), at any time from and after the date of this
Agreement and on or prior to the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date in the case of the Notes and on or prior to
the second Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement
Date in the case of the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the
Treasury Portfolio, in each case by (a) depositing with the Collateral Agent
Treasury Securities having an aggregate principal amount at maturity equal to
the aggregate principal amount of the Notes comprising part of such Income
PRIDES or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as specified in clause
(A) of the definition of such term) of the Treasury Portfolio comprising part of
such Income PRIDES, as the case may be, and (b) transferring the related Income
PRIDES to the Agent accompanied by a notice to the Agent, substantially in the
form of Exhibit D hereto, stating that the Holder has transferred the relevant
amount of Treasury Securities to the Collateral Agent and requesting that the
Agent instruct the Collateral Agent to release the Notes or the appropriate
Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be,
underlying such Income PRIDES, whereupon the Agent shall promptly give such
instruction to the Collateral Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit C
hereto.  Upon receipt of the Treasury Securities described in clause (a) above
and the instruction described in clause (b) above, in accordance with the terms
of the Pledge Agreement, the Collateral Agent will release to the Agent, on
behalf of the Holder, Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of
the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, having the appropriate aggregate
principal amount in the case of such Notes or the appropriate Applicable
Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, from the
Pledge, free and clear of the Company's security interest therein, and upon
receipt thereof the Agent shall promptly:

          (i)    cancel the related Income PRIDES;

          (ii)   transfer the Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership
     Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, to the Holder; and

          (iii)  authenticate, execute on behalf of such Holder and deliver a
     Growth PRIDES Certificate executed by the Company in accordance with
     Section 3.3 evidencing the same number of Purchase Contracts as were
     evidenced by the cancelled Income PRIDES.

          Holders who elect to separate the Notes or the appropriate Applicable
Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, from the
related Purchase Contract and to

                                      27
<PAGE>

substitute Treasury Securities for such Notes or the appropriate Applicable
Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, shall be
responsible for any fees or expenses payable to the Collateral Agent for its
services as Collateral Agent in respect of the substitution, and the Company
shall not be responsible for any such fees or expenses.

          Holders may make Collateral Substitutions (i) only in integral
multiples of 20 Income PRIDES if Treasury Securities are being substituted for
by the Notes, or (ii) only in integral multiples of 80,000 Income PRIDES if
Treasury Securities are being substituted for appropriate Applicable Ownership
Interest of the Treasury Portfolio.

          In the event a Holder making a Collateral Substitution pursuant to
this Section 3.13 fails to effect a book-entry transfer of the Income PRIDES or
fails to deliver an Income PRIDES Certificate(s) to the Agent after depositing
Treasury Securities with the Collateral Agent, the Notes or the appropriate
Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be,
constituting a part of such Income PRIDES, and any interest on such Note or the
Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be,
shall be held in the name of the Agent or its nominee in trust for the benefit
of such Holder, until such Income PRIDES are so transferred or the Income PRIDES
Certificate is so delivered, as the case may be, or, with respect to an Income
PRIDES Certificate, such Holder provides evidence satisfactory to the Company
and the Agent that such Income PRIDES Certificate has been destroyed, lost or
stolen, together with any indemnity that may be required by the Agent and the
Company.

          Except as described in this Section 3.13, for so long as the Purchase
Contract underlying an Income PRIDES remains in effect, such Income PRIDES shall
not be separable into its constituent parts, and the rights and obligations of
the Holder in respect of the Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership
Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, and Purchase Contract
comprising such Income PRIDES may be acquired, and may be transferred and
exchanged, only as an Income PRIDES.

          Section 3.14    Reestablishment of Income PRIDES.

          A Holder of a Growth PRIDES may recreate Income PRIDES at any time (i)
on or prior to the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date, if a Tax Event Redemption or a Successful Initial
Remarketing has not occurred, and (ii) on or prior to the second Business Day
immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, if a Tax Event
Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred and an Applicable
Ownership Interest in the Treasury Portfolio has become a component of the
Income PRIDES, in each case by (a) depositing with the Collateral Agent Notes or
the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the
case may be, having an aggregate principal amount in the case of the Notes, or
an appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as defined in clause (A) of the
definition of such term) of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, equal to
the aggregate principal amount of the Treasury Securities comprising part of the
Growth PRIDES and (b) transferring the related Growth PRIDES to the Agent
accompanied by a notice to the Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit D
hereto, stating that the Holder has transferred the relevant amount of Notes or
the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the
case may be, to the Collateral Agent and requesting that the Agent instruct the
Collateral Agent to release the Treasury Securities underlying such Growth
PRIDES, whereupon

                                      28
<PAGE>

the Agent shall promptly give such instruction to the Collateral Agent,
substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto. Upon receipt of the Notes or the
appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case
may be, described in clause (a) above and the instruction described in clause
(b) above, in accordance with the terms of the Pledge Agreement, the Collateral
Agent will release to the Agent, on behalf of the Holder, the Treasury
Securities having a corresponding aggregate principal amount from the Pledge,
free and clear of the Company's security interest therein, and upon receipt
thereof the Agent shall promptly:

          (i)    cancel the related Growth PRIDES;

          (ii)   transfer the Treasury Securities to the Holder; and

          (iii)  authenticate, execute on behalf of such Holder and deliver an
     Income PRIDES Certificate executed by the Company in accordance with
     Section 3.3 evidencing the same number of Purchase Contracts as were
     evidenced by the cancelled Growth PRIDES.

          Holders of Growth PRIDES may reestablish Income PRIDES in integral
multiples of 20 Growth PRIDES for the same multiple of 20 Income PRIDES if a Tax
Event Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has not occurred, and in
integral multiples of 80,000 Growth PRIDES for 80,000 Income PRIDES if a Tax
Event Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred.

          In the event a Holder re-establishing Income PRIDES pursuant to this
Section 3.14 fails to effect a book-entry transfer of the Growth PRIDES or fails
to deliver a Growth PRIDES Certificate(s) to the Agent after depositing Notes or
the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the
case may be, with the Collateral Agent, the Treasury Securities constituting a
part of such Growth PRIDES shall be held in the name of the Agent or its nominee
in trust for the benefit of such Holder, until such Growth PRIDES are so
transferred or the Growth PRIDES Certificate is so delivered, as the case may
be, or, with respect to a Growth PRIDES Certificate, such Holder provides
evidence satisfactory to the Company and the Agent that such Growth PRIDES
Certificate has been destroyed, lost or stolen, together with any indemnity that
may be required by the Agent and the Company.

          Except as provided in this Section 3.14, for so long as the Purchase
Contract underlying a Growth PRIDES remains in effect, such Growth PRIDES shall
not be separable into its constituent parts and the rights and obligations of
the Holder of such Growth PRIDES in respect of the Treasury Security and
Purchase Contract comprising such Growth PRIDES may be acquired, and may be
transferred and exchanged, only as a Growth PRIDES.

          Section 3.15    Transfer of Collateral upon Occurrence of Termination
Event.

          Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event and the transfer to the
Agent of the Notes, the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the
Treasury Portfolio or the Treasury Securities, as the case may be, underlying
the Income PRIDES and the Growth PRIDES pursuant to the terms of the Pledge
Agreement, the Agent shall request transfer instructions with respect to such
Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio
or Treasury Securities, as the case may be, from each Holder by written request
mailed to such

                                      29
<PAGE>

Holder at its address as it appears in the Income PRIDES Register or the Growth
PRIDES Register, as the case may be. Upon book-entry transfer of the Income
PRIDES or Growth PRIDES or delivery of an Income PRIDES Certificate or a Growth
PRIDES Certificate to the Agent with such transfer instructions, the Agent shall
transfer the Notes, the Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio
or Treasury Securities, as the case may be, underlying such Income PRIDES or
Growth PRIDES, as the case may be, to such Holder by book-entry transfer, or
other appropriate procedures, in accordance with such instructions; provided,
however, that, to the extent that a Holder of Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES
would otherwise be entitled to receive less than $1,000 principal amount at
maturity of the Treasury Portfolio or the Treasury Securities, the Agent shall
dispose of such securities for cash, and transfer the appropriate amount of such
cash to such Holder in accordance with such Holder's instructions. In the event
a Holder of Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES fails to effect such transfer or
delivery, the Notes, the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the
Treasury Portfolio or Treasury Securities, as the case may be, underlying such
Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES, as the case may be, and any distributions
thereon, shall be held in the name of the Agent or its nominee in trust for the
benefit of such Holder, until such Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES are
transferred or the Income PRIDES Certificate or Growth PRIDES Certificate is
surrendered or such Holder provides satisfactory evidence that such Income
PRIDES Certificate or Growth PRIDES Certificate has been destroyed, lost or
stolen, together with any indemnity that may be required by the Agent and the
Company.

          Section 3.16    No Consent to Assumption.

          Each Holder of a Security, by acceptance thereof, shall be deemed
expressly to have withheld any consent to the assumption under Section 365 of
the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, of the Purchase Contract by the Company,
receiver, liquidator or a person or entity performing similar functions, its
trustee in the event that the Company becomes the debtor under the Bankruptcy
Code or subject to other similar state or federal law providing for
reorganization or liquidation.

          Section 3.17    CUSIP Numbers.

          The Company in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then
generally in use), and, if so, the Agent 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
reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the
Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or
omission of such numbers.  The Company will promptly notify the Agent of any
changes in the "CUSIP" numbers.

          Interest on any Note or on the appropriate Applicable Ownership
Interest in the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, which is made on any
Payment Date shall, subject to receipt thereof by the Agent from the Collateral
Agent as provided by the terms of the Pledge Agreement, be paid to the Person in
whose name the Income PRIDES Certificate (or one or more Predecessor Income
PRIDES Certificates) of which such Note or the appropriate Applicable Ownership
Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, is a part is registered
at the close of business on the Record Date for such Payment Date.

          Each Income PRIDES Certificate evidencing Notes delivered under this
Agreement upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any
other Income PRIDES Certificate shall carry the rights to accrued and unpaid
interest, and other amounts that are to accrue, which were or will be carried by
the Notes underlying such other Income PRIDES Certificate.

          In the case of any Income PRIDES with respect to which Cash Settlement
of the underlying Purchase Contract is effected on the Business Day immediately
preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date pursuant to prior notice, or
with respect to which Early Settlement of the underlying Purchase Contract is
effected on an Early Settlement Date, or with respect to which a Collateral
Substitution is effected, in each case on a date that is after any Record Date
and on or prior to the next succeeding Payment Date, interest on the Notes or
distributions on the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury
Portfolio, as the case may be, underlying such Income PRIDES otherwise payable
on such Payment Date shall be payable on such Payment Date notwithstanding such
Cash Settlement or Early Settlement or Collateral Substitution, and such
distributions shall, subject to receipt thereof by the Agent, be payable to the
Person in whose name the Income PRIDES Certificate (or one or more Predecessor
Certificates) was registered at the close of business on the Record Date.
Except as otherwise expressly provided in the immediately preceding sentence, in
the case of any Income PRIDES with respect to which Cash Settlement or Early
Settlement of the underlying Purchase Contract is effected on the Business Day
immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date or an Early
Settlement Date, as the case may be, or with respect to which a Collateral
Substitution has been effected, distributions on the related Notes or on the
appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case
may be, that would otherwise be payable after the Purchase Contract Settlement
Date or Early Settlement Date shall not be payable hereunder to the Holder of
such Income PRIDES; provided, however, that to the extent that such Holder
continues to hold the separated Notes that formerly comprised a part of such
Holder's Income PRIDES, such Holder shall be entitled to receive any payments
made on such separated Notes.

          The applicable Coupon Rate on the Notes on and after May 17, 2004 will
be reset on the Initial Remarketing Date to the applicable Reset Rate (such
Reset Rate to be in effect on and after May 17, 2004), except in the event of a
Failed Initial Remarketing.  In the event of a Failed Initial Remarketing, the
applicable Coupon Rate on the Notes outstanding on and after the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date will be reset on the Secondary Remarketing Date to the
applicable Reset Rate (such Reset Rate to be in effect on and after the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date).  On the applicable Reset Announcement Date, the Reset
Spread and the Two-Year Benchmark Treasury or Two and One-Quarter Benchmark
Treasury, as applicable, to be used to determine the Reset Rate will be
announced by the Company.  On the Business Day

                                      31
<PAGE>

immediately following the Reset Announcement Date, the Holders of Notes will be
notified of such Reset Spread and Two-Year Benchmark Treasury or Two and One-
Quarter Benchmark Treasury, as applicable, by the Company. Such notice shall be
sufficiently given to Holders of Notes if published in an Authorized Newspaper
in The City of New York.

          Not later than seven calendar days nor more than fifteen calendar days
prior to the Reset Announcement Date, the Company will notify DTC or its nominee
(or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee) by first-class mail, postage
prepaid, to notify the Beneficial Owners or Clearing Agency Participants holding
Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES of such Reset Announcement Date and, in the case
of a Secondary Remarketing, the procedures to be followed by Holders of Income
PRIDES who intend to settle their obligation under the Purchase Contract with
separate cash on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date.

          Section 4.2    Notice and Voting.

          Under the terms of the Pledge Agreement, the Agent will be entitled to
exercise the voting and any other consensual rights pertaining to the Notes
pledged with the Collateral Agent but only to the extent instructed by the
Holders as described below.  Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which
holders of Notes are entitled to vote or upon any solicitation of consents,
waivers or proxies of holders of Notes, the Agent shall, as soon as practicable
thereafter, mail to the Holders of Income PRIDES a notice (a) containing such
information as is contained in the notice or solicitation, (b) stating that each
Holder on the record date set by the Agent therefor (which, to the extent
possible, shall be the same date as the record date for determining the holders
of Notes entitled to vote) shall be entitled to instruct the Agent as to the
exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the Notes underlying their Income
PRIDES and (c) stating the manner in which such instructions may be given.  Upon
the written request of the Holders of Income PRIDES on such record date, the
Agent shall endeavor insofar as practicable to vote or cause to be voted, in
accordance with the instructions set forth in such requests, the maximum number
of Notes as to which any particular voting instructions are received.  In the
absence of specific instructions from the Holder of an Income PRIDES, the Agent
shall abstain from voting the Notes underlying such Income PRIDES.  The Company
hereby agrees, if applicable, to solicit Holders of Income PRIDES to timely
instruct the Agent in order to enable the Agent to vote such Notes.

          Section 4.3    Tax Event Redemption.

          Upon the occurrence of a Tax Event Redemption prior to May 17, 2004,
or in the event of a Failed Initial Remarketing, prior to the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date, pursuant to the terms of the Pledge Agreement, the Collateral
Agent will apply, out of the aggregate Redemption Price for the Notes that are
components of Income PRIDES, an amount equal to the aggregate Redemption Amount
for the Notes that are components of Income PRIDES to purchase on behalf of the
Holders of Income PRIDES the Treasury Portfolio and promptly remit the remaining
portion of such Redemption Price to the Agent for payment to the Holders of such
Income PRIDES.  The Treasury Portfolio will be substituted for the pledged
Notes, and will be held by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of
the Pledge Agreement to secure the obligation of each Holder of an Income PRIDES
to purchase the Common Stock of the Company under the Purchase Contract
constituting a part of such Income PRIDES.  Following the

                                      32
<PAGE>

occurrence of a Tax Event Redemption prior to May 17, 2004, or, in the event of
a Failed Initial Remarketing, prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date,
the Holders of Income PRIDES and the Collateral Agent shall have such security
interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Treasury Portfolio as the
Holder of Income PRIDES and the Collateral Agent had in respect of the Notes, as
the case may be, subject to the Pledge thereof as provided in Sections 2, 3, 4,
5 and 6 of the Pledge Agreement, and any reference herein or in the Certificates
to the Note shall be deemed to be a reference to such Treasury Portfolio and any
reference herein or in the Certificates to interest on the Notes shall be deemed
to be a reference to corresponding distributions on the Treasury Portfolio. The
Company may cause to be made in any Income PRIDES Certificates thereafter to be
issued such change in phraseology and form (but not in substance) as may be
appropriate to reflect the substitution of the Treasury Portfolio for Notes as
collateral.

          Section 4.4    CUSIP Numbers.

          The Company in issuing the Notes may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then
generally in use), and, if so, the Indenture 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 Notes or as contained in any notice of a
redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by
any defect in or omission of such numbers.  The Company will promptly notify the
Indenture Trustee and the Agent of any changes in the "CUSIP" numbers.

                                   ARTICLE V

                            THE PURCHASE CONTRACTS

              Section 5.1    Purchase of Shares of Common Stock.

          Each Purchase Contract shall, unless an Early Settlement has occurred
in accordance with Section 5.10 hereof, obligate the Holder of the related
Security to purchase, and the Company to sell, on the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date at a price equal to the Stated Amount (the "Purchase Price"), a
number of newly issued shares of Common Stock equal to the Settlement Rate
unless, on or prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, there shall have
occurred a Termination Event with respect to the Security of which such Purchase
Contract is a part.  The "Settlement Rate" is equal to (a) if the Applicable
Market Value (as defined below) is equal to or greater than $71.47 (the
"Threshold Appreciation Price"), 0.6996 shares of Common Stock per Purchase
Contract, (b) if the Applicable Market Value is less than the Threshold
Appreciation Price but is greater than $59.31, the number of shares of Common
Stock per Purchase Contract equal to the Stated Amount divided by the Applicable
Market Value and (c) if the Applicable Market Value is less than or equal to
$59.31, 0.8430 shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract, in each case
subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5.7 (and in each case rounded
upward or downward to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share).  As provided in
Section 5.11, no fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon
settlement of Purchase Contracts.

                                      33
<PAGE>

          The "Applicable Market Value" means the average of the Closing Price
per share of Common Stock on each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days ending on
the third Trading Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement
Date or, for purposes of determining cash payable in lieu of fractional shares
in connection with an Early Settlement, the third Trading Day immediately
preceding the relevant Early Settlement Date.

          The "Closing Price" of the Common Stock on any date of determination
means the closing sale price (or, if no closing sale price is reported, the last
reported sale price) of the Common Stock on The New York Stock Exchange (the
"NYSE") on such date or, if the Common Stock is not listed for trading on the
NYSE on any such date, as reported in composite transactions for the principal
United States securities exchange on which the Common Stock is so listed, or if
the Common Stock is not so listed on a United States national or regional
securities exchange, as reported by the Nasdaq National Market or, if the Common
Stock is not so reported, the last quoted bid price for the Common Stock in the
over-the-counter market as reported by the National Quotation Bureau or similar
organization, or, if such bid price is not available, the market value of the
Common Stock on such date as determined by a nationally recognized independent
investment banking firm retained for this purpose by the Company.

          A "Trading Day" means a day on which the Common Stock (A) is not
suspended from trading on any national or regional securities exchange or
association or over-the-counter market at the close of business and (B) has
traded at least once on the national or regional securities exchange or
association or over-the-counter market that is the primary market for the
trading of the Common Stock.

          Each Holder of an Income PRIDES or a Growth PRIDES, by its acceptance
thereof, irrevocably authorizes the Agent to enter into and perform the related
Purchase Contract on its behalf as its attorney-in-fact (including the execution
of Certificates on behalf of such Holder), agrees to be bound by the terms and
provisions thereof, covenants and agrees to perform its obligations under such
Purchase Contracts, and consents to the provisions hereof, irrevocably
authorizes the Agent as its attorney-in-fact to enter into and perform the
Pledge Agreement on its behalf as its attorney-in-fact, and consents to and
agrees to be bound by the Pledge of the Notes, the Treasury Portfolio or the
Treasury Securities pursuant to the Pledge Agreement; provided that upon a
Termination Event, the rights of the Holder of such Security under the Purchase
Contract may be enforced without regard to any other rights or obligations.
Each Holder of an Income PRIDES or a Growth PRIDES, by its acceptance thereof,
further covenants and agrees that, to the extent and in the manner provided in
Section 5.5 and the Pledge Agreement, but subject to the terms thereof, Proceeds
of the Treasury Securities, the Notes or the Treasury Portfolio, as applicable,
on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date shall be paid by the Collateral Agent
to the Company in satisfaction of such Holder's obligations under such Purchase
Contract and such Holder shall acquire no right, title or interest in such
Proceeds.

          Upon registration of transfer of a Certificate, the transferee shall
be bound (without the necessity of any other action on the part of such
transferee), under the terms of this Agreement, the Purchase Contracts
underlying such Certificate and the Pledge Agreement and the transferor shall be
released from the obligations under this Agreement, the Purchase Contracts
underlying the Certificates so transferred and the Pledge Agreement.  The
Company

                                      34
<PAGE>

covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Certificate, by its acceptance
thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, to be bound by the provisions of this
paragraph.

          Section 5.2    Contract Adjustment Payments.

          (a) Subject to Section 5.3 herein, the Company shall pay, on each
Payment Date, the Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, payable in respect of
each Purchase Contract to the Person in whose name a Certificate (or one or more
Predecessor Certificates) is registered at the close of business on the Record
Date next preceding such Payment Date in such coin or currency of the United
States as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for payments.  The
Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, will be payable at the New York Office
maintained for that purpose or, at the option of the Company, by check mailed to
the address of the Person entitled thereto at such Person's address as it
appears on the Income PRIDES Register or the Growth PRIDES Register or by wire
transfer to the account designated by a prior written notice by such Person.

          Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Company's obligation
to pay Contract Adjustment Payments (including any accrued Deferred Contract
Adjustment Payments), if any, shall cease.

          Each Certificate delivered under this Agreement upon registration of
transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of (including as a result of a
Collateral Substitution or the re-establishment of an Income PRIDES) any other
Certificate shall carry the rights to Contract Adjustment Payments, if any,
accrued and unpaid, and to accrue Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, which
were carried by the Purchase Contracts underlying such other Certificates.

          Subject to Section 5.10, in the case of any Security with respect to
which Early Settlement of the underlying Purchase Contract is effected on an
Early Settlement Date, or in respect of which Cash Settlement of the underlying
Purchase Contract is effected on the Business Day immediately preceding the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date, or with respect to which a Collateral
Substitution or an establishment or re-establishment of Income PRIDES pursuant
to Section 3.14 is effected, in each case on a date that is after any Record
Date and on or prior to the next succeeding Payment Date, Contract Adjustment
Payments on the Purchase Contracts underlying such Securities otherwise payable
on such Payment Date shall be payable on such Payment Date notwithstanding such
Cash Settlement, Early Settlement, Collateral Substitution or establishment or
re-establishment of Income PRIDES, and such Contract Adjustment Payments shall
be paid to the Person in whose name the Certificate evidencing such Security (or
one or more Predecessor Certificates) is registered at the close of business on
such Record Date. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the immediately
preceding sentence, in the case of any Security with respect to which Cash
Settlement or Early Settlement of the underlying Purchase Contract is effected
on the Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date
or on an Early Settlement Date, as the case may be, or with respect to which a
Collateral Substitution or an establishment or re-establishment of Income PRIDES
has been effected, Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, that would otherwise be
payable after the Purchase Contract Settlement Date or Early Settlement Date,
Collateral Substitution or such establishment or reestablishment with respect to
such Purchase Contract shall not be payable.

                                      35
<PAGE>

          (b)  The Company's obligations with respect to Contract Adjustment
Payments, if any, will be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the
Company's obligations under any Senior Indebtedness.

          (c)  In the event (x) of any payment by, or distribution of assets of,
the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities,
to creditors upon any dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization of
the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership or other proceedings, or (y) subject to the provisions of
Subsection 5.2(e) below, that (i) a default shall have occurred and be
continuing with respect to the payment of principal, interest or any other
monetary amounts due and payable on any Senior Indebtedness and such default
shall have continued beyond the period of grace, if any, specified in the
instrument evidencing such Senior Indebtedness (and the Agent shall have
received written notice thereof from the Company or one or more holders of
Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or the trustee or
trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any such Senior Indebtedness may
have been issued), or (ii) the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness shall have
been accelerated because of a default in respect of such Senior Indebtedness
(and the Agent shall have received written notice thereof from the Company or
one or more holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or
representatives or the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which
any such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued), then:

          (i)  the holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall first be entitled to
     receive, in the case of clause (x) above, payment of all amounts due or to
     become due upon all Senior Indebtedness and, in the case of subclauses (i)
     and (ii) of clause (y) above, payment of all amounts due thereon, or
     provision shall be made for such payment in money or money's worth, before
     the Holders of any of the Securities are entitled to receive any Contract
     Adjustment Payments on the Purchase Contracts underlying the Securities;

          (ii) any payment by, or distribution of assets of, the Company of any
     kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the
     Holders of any of the Securities would be entitled except for the
     provisions of Subsections 5.2(b) through (n), including any such payment or
     distribution which may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment
     of any other indebtedness of the Company being subordinated to the payment
     of such Contract Adjustment Payments on the Purchase Contracts underlying
     the Securities, shall be paid or delivered by the Person making such
     payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or
     liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly to the holders of such Senior
     Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or to the trustee
     or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any
     of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably according to the
     aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of such Senior Indebtedness
     held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to make payment in
     full of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid after giving effect to any
     concurrent payment or distribution (or provision therefor) to the holders
     of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made of
     such Contract Adjustment Payments to the Holders of such Securities; and

                                      36
<PAGE>

          (iii)  in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment
     by, or distribution of assets of, the Company of any kind or character,
     whether in cash, property or securities, including any such payment or
     distribution which may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment
     of any other indebtedness of the Company being subordinated to the payment
     of Contract Adjustment Payments on the Purchase Contracts underlying the
     Securities, shall be received by the Agent or the Holders of any of the
     Securities when such payment or distribution is prohibited pursuant to
     Subsections 5.2(b) through (n), such payment or distribution shall be paid
     over to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or
     representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant
     to which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness may have
     been issued, ratably as aforesaid, for application to the payment of all
     Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness
     shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment
     or distribution (or provision therefor) to the holders of such Senior
     Indebtedness.

          (d)  For purposes of Subsections 5.2(b) through (n), 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
Person provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the payment of
which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in Subsections 5.2(b)
through (n) with respect to such Contract Adjustment Payments on the Securities
to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness which may at the time be outstanding;
provided that (i) the indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness, as the case may
be, that constitutes Senior Indebtedness is assumed by the Person, if any,
resulting from any such reorganization or readjustment, and (ii) the rights of
the holders of the Senior Indebtedness are not, without the consent of each such
holder adversely affected thereby, altered by such reorganization or
readjustment;

          (e)  Any failure by the Company to make any payment on or perform any
other obligation under Senior Indebtedness, other than any indebtedness incurred
by the Company or assumed or guaranteed, directly or indirectly, by the Company
for money borrowed (or any deferral, renewal, extension or refunding thereof) or
any indebtedness or obligation as to which the provisions of Subsections 5.2(b)
through (d) shall have been waived by the Company in the instrument or
instruments by which the Company incurred, assumed, guaranteed or otherwise
created such indebtedness or obligation, shall not be deemed a default or event
of default if (i) the Company shall be disputing its obligation to make such
payment or perform such obligation and (ii) either (A) no final judgment
relating to such dispute shall have been issued against the Company which is in
full force and effect and is not subject to further review, including a judgment
that has become final by reason of the expiration of the time within which a
party may seek further appeal or review, and (B) in the event a judgment that is
subject to further review or appeal has been issued, the Company shall in good
faith be prosecuting an appeal or other proceeding for review and a stay of
execution shall have been obtained pending such appeal or review.

          (f)  Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the
Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with the
holders of all obligations of the Company which by their express terms are
subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of the Company to the same extent as payment
of the Contract Adjustment Payments in respect of the Purchase

                                      37
<PAGE>

Contracts underlying the Securities is subordinated and which are 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 all such Contract Adjustment
Payments owing on the Securities shall be paid in full, and as between the
Company, its creditors other than holders of such Senior Indebtedness and the
Holders, no such payment or distribution made to the holders of Senior
Indebtedness by virtue of Subsections 5.2(b) through (n) that otherwise would
have been made to the Holders shall be deemed to be a payment by the Company on
account of such Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of
Subsections 5.2(b) through (n) are and are intended solely for the purpose of
defining the relative rights of the Holders, on the one hand, and the holders of
Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.

          (g)  Nothing contained in Subsections 5.2(b) through (n) or elsewhere
in this Agreement 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, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to
pay to the Holders such Contract Adjustment Payments 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 and creditors of
the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything
herein or therein prevent the Agent or any Holder from exercising all remedies
otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Agreement, subject
to the rights, if any, under these Subsections 5.2(b) through (n), of the
holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the
Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy.

          (h)  Upon payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to
in these Subsections 5.2(b) through (n), the Agent and the Holders shall be
entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent
jurisdiction in which any such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or
reorganization proceeding affecting the affairs of the Company is pending or
upon a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the
benefit of creditors, liquidating trustee or agent or other person making any
payment or distribution, delivered to the Agent or to the Holders, for the
purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or
distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of
the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid
or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to these
Subsections 5.2(b) through (n).

          (i)  The Agent shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a
written notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior
Indebtedness (or a trustee or representative on behalf of such holder) to
establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior Indebtedness or
a trustee or representative on behalf of any such holder or holders.  In the
event that the Agent 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 Subsections 5.2(b)
through (n), the Agent may request such Person to furnish evidence to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Agent 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 Subsections 5.2(b) through (n), and, if such evidence is not
furnished, the Agent may defer

                                      38
<PAGE>

payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such
Person to receive such payment.

          (j)  Nothing contained in Subsections 5.2(b) through (n) shall affect
the obligations of the Company to make, or prevent the Company from making,
payment of the Contract Adjustment Payments, except as otherwise provided in
these Subsections 5.2(b) through (n).

          (k)  Each Holder of Securities, by his acceptance thereof, authorizes
and directs the Agent on his, her or its behalf to take such action as may be
necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in Subsections
5.2(b) through (n) and appoints the Agent his, her or its attorney-in-fact, as
the case may be, for any and all such purposes.

          (l)  The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Agent of any
fact known to the Company that would prohibit the making of any payment of
moneys to or by the Agent in respect of the Securities pursuant to the
provisions of this Section.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsections
5.2(b) through (e) or any other provisions of this Agreement, the Agent shall
not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit
the making of any payment of moneys to or by the Agent, or the taking of any
other action by the Agent, unless and until the Agent shall have received
written notice thereof mailed or delivered to a Responsible Officer of the Agent
from the Company, any Holder, any paying agent or the holder or representative
of any Senior Indebtedness; provided that if at least two Business Days prior to
the date upon which by the terms hereof any such moneys may become payable for
any purpose, the Agent shall not have received with respect to such moneys the
notice provided for in this Section, then, anything herein contained to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Agent shall have full power and authority to
receive such moneys and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were
received and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary that may be
received by it within two Business Days prior to or on or after such date.

          (m)  The Agent in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the
rights set forth in this Section with respect to any Senior Indebtedness at the
time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness
and nothing in this Agreement shall deprive the Agent of any of its rights as
such holder.

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

          (o)  Nothing in this Section 5.2 shall apply to claims of, or payments
to, the Agent under or pursuant to Section 7.7.

          With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, (i) the duties and
obligations of the Agent shall be determined solely by the express provisions of
this Agreement; (ii) the Agent shall not be liable except for the performance of
such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement;
(iii) no implied covenants or obligations shall be read

                                      39

into this Agreement against the Agent; and (iv) the Agent shall not be deemed to
be a fiduciary as to such holders.

          Section 5.3    Deferral of Payment Dates For Contract Adjustment
Payments.

          The Company shall have the right, at any time prior to the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date, to defer the payment of any or all of the Contract
Adjustment Payments otherwise payable on any Payment Date, but only if the
Company shall give the Holders and the Agent written notice of its election to
defer such payment (specifying the amount to be deferred) at least ten Business
Days prior to the earlier of (i) the next succeeding Payment Date or (ii) the
date the Company is required to give notice of the Record Date or Payment Date
with respect to payment of such Contract Adjustment Payments to the NYSE or
other applicable self-regulatory organization or to Holders of the Securities,
but in any event not less than one Business Day prior to such Record Date.  Any
Contract Adjustment Payments so deferred shall, to the extent permitted by law,
bear additional Contract Adjustment Payments thereon at the rate of 7.625% per
year (computed on the basis of a 360 day year of twelve 30 day months),
compounding on each succeeding Payment Date, until paid in full (such deferred
installments of Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, together with the
additional Contract Adjustment Payments accrued thereon, being referred to
herein as the "Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments"). Deferred Contract
Adjustment Payments, if any, shall be due on the next succeeding Payment Date
except to the extent that payment is deferred pursuant to this Section.  No
Contract Adjustment Payments may be deferred to a date that is after the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date and no such deferral period may end other than
on a Payment Date.  If the Purchase Contracts are terminated upon the occurrence
of a Termination Event, the Holder's right to receive Contract Adjustment
Payments, if any, and Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments will terminate.

          In the event that the Company elects to defer the payment of Contract
Adjustment Payments on the Purchase Contracts until a Payment Date prior to the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date, then all Deferred Contract Adjustment
Payments, if any, shall be payable to the registered Holders as of the close of
business on the Record Date immediately preceding such Payment Date.

          In the event that the Company elects to defer the payment of Contract
Adjustment Payments on the Purchase Contracts until the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date, each Holder will receive on the Purchase Contract Settlement
Date in lieu of a cash payment a number of shares of Common Stock (in addition
to a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Settlement Rate) equal to (x)
the aggregate amount of Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments payable to such
Holder divided by (y) the Applicable Market Value.

          No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued by the Company
with respect to the payment of Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments on the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date.  In lieu of fractional shares otherwise
issuable with respect to such payment of Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments,
the Holder will be entitled to receive an amount in cash as provided in Section
5.11.

                                      40
<PAGE>

          In the event the Company exercises its option to defer the payment of
Contract Adjustment Payments then, until the Deferred Contract Adjustment
Payments have been paid, the Company shall not, and shall not permit its
Subsidiaries to, declare or pay dividends on, make distributions with respect
to, or redeem, purchase or acquire, or make a liquidation payment with respect
to, any of the Company's capital stock other than:

          (i)   purchases, redemptions or acquisitions of shares of capital
     stock of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit
     plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees,
     officers or directors or a stock purchase or dividend reinvestment plan, or
     the satisfaction by the Company of its obligations pursuant to any contract
     or security outstanding on the date the Company exercises its right to
     defer the Contract Adjustment Payments;

          (ii)  as a result of a reclassification of the Company's capital stock
     or the exchange or conversion of one class or series of the Company's
     capital stock for another class or series of the Company's capital stock;

          (iii) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company's
     capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such
     capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged;

          (iv)  dividends or distributions in capital stock of the Company (or
     rights to acquire capital stock) or repurchases, acquisitions or
     redemptions of capital stock in exchange for or out of the net cash
     proceeds of the sale of the Company's capital stock (or securities
     convertible into or exchangeable for shares of the Company's capital
     stock);

          (v)   redemptions, exchanges or repurchases of any rights outstanding
     under a shareholder rights plan or the declaration or payment thereunder of
     a dividend or distribution of or with respect to rights in the future; or

          (vi)  mandatory sinking fund payments with respect to any series of
     preferred stock of the Company; provided that the aggregate stated value of
     all such series outstanding at the time of such payment does not exceed 5%
     of the aggregate of (1) the total principal amount of all then outstanding
     bonds or other securities representing secured indebtedness issued or
     assumed by the Company and (2) the Company's capital and surplus to be
     stated on the Company's books of account after giving effect to such
     payment; provided however that any moneys deposited in to any sinking fund
     and not in violation of this clause (vi) may thereafter be applied to the
     purchase or redemption of such preferred stock in accordance with the terms
     of such sinking fund without regard to the foregoing restrictions.

          Section 5.4    Initial Remarketing.

          Unless a Tax Event Redemption has occurred, the Company shall engage a
nationally recognized investment bank (the "Remarketing Agent") pursuant to the
Remarketing Agreement to sell the Notes (the "Initial Remarketing") on the third
Business Day immediately preceding May 17, 2004 (the "Initial Remarketing
Date").  In order to facilitate the remarketing, the Agent shall notify, by
10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately

                                      41
<PAGE>

preceding the Initial Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent of the aggregate
principal amount of Notes to be remarketed. Concurrently, the Collateral Agent,
pursuant to the terms of the Pledge Agreement, will present for remarketing such
Notes to the Remarketing Agent. Upon receipt of such notice from the Agent and
such Notes from the Collateral Agent, the Remarketing Agent will, on the Initial
Remarketing Date, use its reasonable efforts to remarket such Notes on such date
at a price of approximately 100.5% (but not less than 100%) of the Treasury
Portfolio Purchase Price. If the Remarketing Agent is able to remarket the Notes
at a price equal to or greater than 100% of the Treasury Portfolio Purchase
Price (a "Successful Initial Remarketing"), the portion of the proceeds from
such Successful Initial Remarketing equal to the Treasury Portfolio Purchase
Price will be applied to purchase the Treasury Portfolio. In addition, the
Remarketing Agent may deduct as a remarketing fee ("Remarketing Fee") an amount
equal to 25 basis points (0.25%) of the Treasury Portfolio Purchase Price from
any amount of such proceeds in excess of the Treasury Portfolio Purchase Price.
Any proceeds in excess of those required to pay the Treasury Portfolio Purchase
Price and the Remarketing Fee will be remitted to the Agent for payment to the
Holders of the related Income PRIDES. Income PRIDES Holders whose Notes are so
remarketed will not otherwise be responsible for the payment of any Remarketing
Fee in connection therewith. The Treasury Portfolio will be substituted for the
Notes of Holders of Income PRIDES and will be pledged to the Collateral Agent to
secure the Income PRIDES Holders' obligation to pay the Purchase Price for the
Common Stock under the related Purchase Contracts on the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date. Following the occurrence of a Successful Initial Remarketing,
the Holders of Income PRIDES and the Collateral Agent shall have such security
interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Treasury Portfolio as the
Holder of Income PRIDES and the Collateral Agent had in respect of the Notes, as
the case may be, subject to the Pledge thereof as provided in Sections 2, 3, 4,
5 and 6 of the Pledge Agreement, and any reference herein or in the Certificates
to the Notes shall be deemed to be a reference to such Treasury Portfolio and
any reference herein or in the Certificates to interest on the Notes shall be
deemed to be a reference to corresponding distributions on the Treasury
Portfolio. The Company may cause to be made in any Income PRIDES Certificates
thereafter to be issued such change in phraseology and form (but not in
substance) as may be appropriate to reflect the substitution of the Treasury
Portfolio for Notes as collateral.

          If, (i) in spite of using its reasonable efforts, the Remarketing
Agent cannot remarket the related Notes (other than to the Company) of such
Holders of Income PRIDES at a price not less than 100% of the Treasury Portfolio
Purchase Price, or (ii) the remarketing has not occurred because of a condition
precedent to the remarketing has not been fulfilled, the remarketing will be
deemed to have failed (a "Failed Initial Remarketing").  The Company will cause
a notice of a Failed Initial Remarketing to be published on the second Business
Day immediately preceding May 17, 2004 in an Authorized Newspaper.

          Section 5.5    Payment of Purchase Price.

          (a)   (i)  Unless a Tax Event Redemption, Successful Initial
Remarketing, Termination Event or Early Settlement has occurred, each Holder of
an Income PRIDES may pay in cash ("Cash Settlement") the Purchase Price for the
shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to a Purchase Contract if such
Holder notifies the Agent by use of a notice in substantially the form of
Exhibit E hereto of its intention to make a Cash Settlement.  Such notice shall
be made on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day

                                      42
<PAGE>

immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. The Agent shall
promptly notify the Collateral Agent of the receipt of such a notice from a
Holder intending to make a Cash Settlement.

          (ii)  A Holder of an Income PRIDES who has so notified the Agent of
     its intention to make a Cash Settlement is required to pay the Purchase
     Price to the Collateral Agent prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on
     the Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement
     Date in lawful money of the United States by certified or cashiers' check
     or wire transfer, in each case payable to or upon the order of the Company.
     Any cash received by the Collateral Agent will be invested promptly by the
     Collateral Agent in Permitted Investments and paid to the Company on the
     Purchase Contract Settlement Date in settlement of the Purchase Contract in
     accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Pledge Agreement. Any
     funds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of the investment
     earnings from the investment in such Permitted Investments, will be
     distributed to the Agent when received for payment to the Holder.

          (iii) If a Holder of an Income PRIDES fails to notify the Agent of
     its intention to make a Cash Settlement in accordance with paragraph (a)(i)
     above, such failure shall constitute an event of default and the Holder
     shall be deemed to have consented to the disposition of the pledged Notes
     pursuant to the Secondary Remarketing as described in paragraph (b) below.
     If a Holder of an Income PRIDES does notify the Agent as provided in
     paragraph (a)(i) above of its intention to pay the Purchase Price in cash,
     but fails to make such payment as required by paragraph (a)(ii) above, such
     failure shall also constitute a default; however, the Notes of such a
     Holder will not be remarketed but instead the Collateral Agent, for the
     benefit of the Company, will exercise its rights as a secured party with
     respect to such Notes, including but not limited to those rights specified
     in paragraph (c) below.

          (b) Unless a Tax Event Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing
has occurred, the Notes of Income PRIDES Holders who have not notified the Agent
of their intention to effect a Cash Settlement as provided in paragraph (a)(i)
above will be sold by the Remarketing Agent (the "Secondary Remarketing") on the
third Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date
(the "Secondary Remarketing Date"). The Agent shall notify, by 10:00 a.m., New
York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Secondary
Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent of the aggregate principal amount of
Notes to be remarketed. Concurrently, the Collateral Agent, pursuant to the
terms of the Pledge Agreement, will present for remarketing such Notes to the
Remarketing Agent. Upon receipt of such notice from the Agent and such Notes
from the Collateral Agent, the Remarketing Agent will, on the Secondary
Remarketing Date, use its reasonable efforts to remarket such Notes on such date
at a price of approximately 100.5% (but not less than 100%) of the aggregate
principal amount of such Notes. If the Remarketing Agent is able to remarket the
Notes at a price equal to or greater than 100% of the aggregate principal amount
of Notes (a "Successful Secondary Remarketing"), the Remarketing Agent will
remit the entire amount of the proceeds from such Successful Secondary
Remarketing to the Collateral Agent; provided, however, that the Remarketing
Agent may deduct as the Remarketing Fee an amount equal to 25 basis points
(0.25%) of the aggregate principal amount of the remarketed Notes from any
amount of the
                                      43
<PAGE>

proceeds of a Successful Secondary Remarketing in excess of the aggregate
principal amount of the remarketed Notes. The portion of the proceeds equal to
the aggregate principal amount of Notes will automatically be applied by the
Collateral Agent, in accordance with the Pledge Agreement, to satisfy in full
such Income PRIDES holders' obligations to pay the Purchase Price for the Common
Stock under the related Purchase Contracts on the Purchase Contract Settlement
Date. Any proceeds in excess of those required to pay the Purchase Price and the
Remarketing Fee will be remitted to the Agent for payment to the Holders of the
related Income PRIDES. Income PRIDES Holders whose Notes are so remarketed will
not otherwise be responsible for the payment of any Remarketing Fee in
connection therewith. If, (i) in spite of using its reasonable efforts, the
Remarketing Agent cannot remarket the related Notes (other than to the Company)
of such Holders of Income PRIDES at a price not less than 100% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes, or (ii) the remarketing has not occurred because
of a condition precedent to the remarketing has not been fulfilled, the
remarketing will be deemed to have failed (a "Failed Secondary Remarketing") and
in accordance with the terms of the Pledge Agreement the Collateral Agent for
the benefit of the Company will exercise its rights as a secured party with
respect to such Notes, including those actions specified in paragraph (c) below.
The Company will cause a notice of such Failed Secondary Remarketing to be
published on the second Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date in an Authorized Newspaper.

          (c) With respect to any Notes beneficially owned by Holders who have
elected Cash Settlement but failed to deliver cash as required in (a)(ii) above,
or with respect to Notes which are subject to a Failed Secondary Remarketing,
the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Company reserves all of its rights
as a secured party with respect thereto and, subject to applicable law and
paragraph (h) below, may, among other things, (i) retain the Notes in full
satisfaction of the Holders obligations under the Purchase Contracts or (ii)
sell the Notes in one or more public or private sales.

          (d) Unless a Termination Event or an Early Settlement has occurred,
the Purchase Contract underlying each Growth PRIDES and, if a Tax Event
Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred, each Income PRIDES
will be settled with the Proceeds at maturity of the Treasury Security or the
Applicable Ownership Interest (as defined in clause (A) of the definition of
such term) of the Treasury Portfolio, as applicable.  Upon receipt of such
Proceeds, the Collateral Agent will invest the Proceeds promptly in Permitted
Investments and pay the Proceeds to the Company on the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Pledge
Agreement.  Any such Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in excess of the
Purchase Price and any funds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of the
investment earnings from the investment in such Permitted Investments will be
distributed to the Agent when received for payment to the Holders.

          (e) Any distribution to Holders of excess funds and interest described
above, shall be payable at the New York Office maintained for that purpose or,
at the option of the Holder, by check mailed to the address of the Person
entitled thereto at such address as it appears on the Register, or, at the
option of the Company, by wire transfer to the bank account designated by such
Holders in writing, such payments to be made to the same Persons entitled to
receive Common Stock with respect to the Purchase Contracts referred to in
Subsection (d) above.

                                      44
<PAGE>

          (f)  Unless a Holder settles the underlying Purchase Contract through
the Early Settlement in the manner described in Section 5.10, the Company shall
not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock in respect of a Purchase
Contract or deliver any certificate therefor to the Holder unless it shall have
received payment in full of the Purchase Price for the shares of Common Stock to
be purchased thereunder in the manner set forth in this Section 5.5.

          (g)  Upon Cash Settlement of any Purchase Contract, (i) the Collateral
Agent will in accordance with the terms of the Pledge Agreement cause the
pledged Notes underlying the relevant Security to be released from the Pledge by
the Collateral Agent free and clear of any security interest of the Company and
transferred to the Agent for delivery to the Holder thereof or its designee as
soon as practicable and (ii) subject to the receipt thereof from the Collateral
Agent, the Agent shall, by book-entry transfer, or other appropriate procedures,
in accordance with instructions provided by the Holder thereof, transfer such
Notes (or, if no such instructions are given to the Agent by the Holder, the
Agent shall hold such Notes and any distributions thereon in the name of the
Agent or its nominee in trust for the benefit of such Holder).

          (h)  The obligations of the Holders to pay the Purchase Price are non-
recourse obligations and are payable solely out of any Cash Settlement or the
Proceeds of any Collateral pledged to secure the obligations of the Holders and
in no event will Holders be liable for any deficiency between the Proceeds of
Collateral and the Purchase Price.

          Section 5.6    Issuance of Shares of Common Stock.

          Unless a Termination Event or an Early Settlement shall have occurred,
on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, upon its receipt of payment in full of
the Purchase Price for the shares of Common Stock purchased by the Holders
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Article and subject to Section
5.7(b), the Company shall issue and deposit with the Agent, for the benefit of
the Holders of the Outstanding Securities, one or more certificates representing
newly issued shares of Common Stock registered in the name of the Agent (or its
nominee) as custodian for the Holders (such certificates for shares of Common
Stock, together with any dividends or distributions for which both a record date
and payment date for such dividend or distribution has occurred on or after the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date, being hereinafter referred to as the
"Purchase Contract Settlement Fund") to which the Holders are entitled
hereunder.  Subject to the foregoing, upon surrender of a Certificate to the
Agent on or after the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, together with
settlement instructions thereon duly completed and executed, the Holder of such
Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate
representing that number of whole shares of Common Stock which such Holder is
entitled to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article Five (after
taking into account all Securities then held by such Holder) together with cash
in lieu of fractional shares as provided in Section 5.11 and any dividends or
distributions with respect to such shares constituting part of the Purchase
Contract Settlement Fund, but without any interest thereon, and the Certificate
so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled.  Such shares shall be registered in
the name of the Holder or the Holder's designee as specified in the settlement
instructions provided by the Holder to the Agent.  If any shares of Common Stock
issued in respect of a Purchase Contract are to be registered to a Person other
than the Person in whose name the Certificate evidencing such Purchase Contract
is registered, no such registration shall be made unless the Person requesting
such registration has paid any transfer and other taxes required by reason of
such registration in a

                                      45
<PAGE>

name other than that of the registered Holder of the Certificate evidencing such
Purchase Contract or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that
such tax either has been paid or is not payable.

          Section 5.7    Adjustment of Settlement Rate.

          (a) Adjustments for Dividends, Distributions, Stock Splits, Etc.

          (1) In case the Company shall pay or make a dividend or other
     distribution on the Common Stock in Common Stock, the Settlement Rate, as
     in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed
     for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or
     other distribution shall be increased by dividing such Settlement Rate by a
     fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common
     Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such
     determination and the denominator shall be the sum of such number of shares
     and the total number of shares constituting such dividend or other
     distribution, such increase to become effective immediately after the
     opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such
     determination.  For the purposes of this paragraph (1), the number of
     shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares
     held in the treasury of the Company but shall include any shares issuable
     in respect of any share certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares
     of Common Stock.  The Company will not pay any dividend or make any
     distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.

          (2)  In case the Company shall issue rights, options or warrants to
     all holders of its Common Stock (not being available on an equivalent basis
     to Holders of the Securities upon settlement of the Purchase Contracts
     underlying such Securities) entitling them, for a period expiring within 45
     days after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled
     to receive such rights, options or warrants, to subscribe for or purchase
     shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the Current Market
     Price per share of the Common Stock on the date fixed for the determination
     of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants (other
     than pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan or share purchase plan), the
     Settlement Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following
     the date fixed for such determination shall be increased by dividing such
     Settlement Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of
     shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date
     fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock
     which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares of Common
     Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such
     Current Market Price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of
     Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for
     such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for
     subscription or purchase, such increase to become effective immediately
     after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such
     determination. For purposes of this paragraph (2), the number of shares of
     Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the
     treasury of the Company but shall include any shares issuable in respect of
     any share certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares

                                      46
<PAGE>

     of Common Stock. The Company shall not issue any such rights, options or
     warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the
     Company.

          (3)  In case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided or
     split into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Settlement Rate
     in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon
     which such subdivision or split becomes effective shall be proportionately
     increased, and, conversely, in case outstanding shares of Common Stock
     shall each be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the
     Settlement Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following
     the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be
     proportionately reduced, such increase or reduction, as the case may be, to
     become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day
     following the day upon which such subdivision, split or combination becomes
     effective.

          (4)  In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute
     to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness, shares of
     capital stock, securities, cash or other property (but excluding any rights
     or warrants referred to in paragraph (2) of this Section, any dividend or
     distribution paid exclusively in cash and any dividend or distribution
     referred to in paragraph (1) of this Section), the Settlement Rate shall be
     increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the
     Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the
     date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
     distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Current
     Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such
     determination less the then fair market value (as determined by the Board
     of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a
     Board Resolution filed with the Agent) on such date of the portion of the
     evidences of indebtedness, shares of capital stock, securities, cash or
     other property so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock and
     the denominator shall be such Current Market Price per share of the Common
     Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening
     of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of
     stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. In any case in which
     this paragraph (4) is applicable, paragraph (2) of this Section shall not
     be applicable.

          (5)  In case the Company shall, (I) by dividend or otherwise,
     distribute to all holders of its Common Stock cash (excluding (i) regular
     quarterly cash distributions, (ii) any cash that is distributed in a
     Reorganization Event to which Section 5.7(b) applies or (iii) cash that is
     distributed as part of a distribution referred to in paragraph (4) of this
     Section) in an aggregate amount that, combined together with (II) the
     aggregate amount of any other distributions to all holders of its Common
     Stock made exclusively in cash within the 12 months preceding the date of
     payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant
     to this paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section has been made and
     (III) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value, as of the
     expiration of the applicable tender or exchange offer referred to below (as
     determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be
     conclusive and described in a Board Resolution), of consideration payable
     in respect of any tender or exchange offer (other than consideration
     payable in respect of any odd-lot tender offer) by the Company or any of
     its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Stock concluded
     within the 12

                                      47
<PAGE>

     months preceding the date of payment of the distribution described in
     clause (I) above and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this
     paragraph (5) or paragraph (6) of this Section has been made, exceeds 15%
     of the product of the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock on
     the date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock
     entitled to receive such distribution times the number of shares of Common
     Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case, immediately
     after the close of business on such date for determination, the Settlement
     Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by
     dividing the Settlement Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of
     business on the date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled
     to receive such distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall
     be equal to the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the
     date fixed for such determination less an amount equal to the quotient of
     (x) the combined amount distributed or payable in the transactions
     described in clauses (I), (II) and (III) above and (y) the number of shares
     of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the
     denominator of which shall be equal to the Current Market Price per share
     of the Common Stock on such date for determination.

          (6)  In case (I) a tender or exchange offer made by the Company or any
     Subsidiary of the Company for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall
     expire and such tender or exchange offer (as amended upon the expiration
     thereof) shall require the payment to stockholders (based on the acceptance
     (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer)
     of Purchased Shares) of an aggregate consideration having a fair market
     value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall
     be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) that combined together
     with (II) the aggregate of the cash plus the fair market value (as
     determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be
     conclusive and described in a Board Resolution), as of the expiration of
     such tender or exchange offer, of consideration payable in respect of any
     other tender or exchange offer (other than consideration payable in respect
     of any odd-lot tender offer) by the Company or any Subsidiary of the
     Company for all or any portion of the Common Stock expiring within the 12
     months preceding the expiration of such tender or exchange offer and in
     respect of which no adjustment pursuant to paragraph (5) of this Section or
     this paragraph (6) has been made and (III) the aggregate amount of any
     distributions (other than regular quarterly cash distributions) to all
     holders of the Company's Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the
     12 months preceding the expiration of such tender or exchange offer and in
     respect of which no adjustment pursuant to paragraph (5) of this Section or
     this paragraph (6) has been made, exceeds 15% of the product of the Current
     Market Price per share of the Common Stock as of the last time (the
     "Expiration Time") tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender or
     exchange offer (as it may be amended) times the number of shares of Common
     Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) on the Expiration Time,
     then, and in each such case, immediately prior to the opening of business
     on the day after the date of the Expiration Time, the Settlement Rate shall
     be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing
     the Settlement Rate immediately prior to the close of business as of the
     Expiration Time by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to
     (A) the product of (I) the Current Market Price per share of the Common
     Stock as of the Expiration Time and (II) the number of shares of Common
     Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time
     less (B) the amount of cash

                                      48
<PAGE>

     plus the fair market value (determined as aforesaid) of the aggregate
     consideration payable to stockholders based on the transactions described
     in clauses (I), (II) and (III) above (assuming in the case of clause (I)
     the acceptance, up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or
     exchange offer, of Purchased Shares), and (ii) the denominator of which
     shall be equal to the product of (A) the Current Market Price per share of
     the Common Stock as of the Expiration Time and (B) the number of shares of
     Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the
     Expiration Time less the number of all shares validly tendered and not
     withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted, up to
     any such maximum, being referred to as the "Purchased Shares").

          (7)  The reclassification of Common Stock into securities including
     securities other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a
     Reorganization Event to which Section 5.7(b) applies) shall be deemed to
     involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to
     all holders of Common Stock (and the effective date of such
     reclassification shall be deemed to be "the date fixed for the
     determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and
     the "date fixed for such determination" within the meaning of paragraph (4)
     of this Section), and (b) a subdivision, split or combination, as the case
     may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
     prior to such reclassification into the number   of shares of Common Stock
     outstanding immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such
     reclassification shall be deemed to be "the day upon which such subdivision
     or split becomes effective" or "the day upon which such combination becomes
     effective", as the case may be, and "the day upon which such subdivision,
     split or combination becomes effective" within the meaning of paragraph (3)
     of this Section).

          (8)  The "Current Market Price" per share of Common Stock on any day
     means the average of the daily Closing Prices for the five consecutive
     Trading Days selected by the Company commencing not more than 30 Trading
     Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of the day in question
     and the day before the "ex date" with respect to the issuance or
     distribution requiring such computation.  For purposes of this paragraph,
     the term "ex date", when used with respect to any issuance or distribution,
     shall mean the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on
     such exchange or in such market without the right to receive such issuance
     or distribution.

          (9)  All adjustments to the Settlement Rate, shall be calculated to
     the nearest 1/10,000th of a share of Common Stock (or if there is not a
     nearest 1/10,000th of a share to the next lower 1/10,000th of a share). No
     adjustment in the Settlement Rate shall be required unless such adjustment
     would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent therein;
     provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this
     subparagraph are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken
     into account in any subsequent adjustment. If an adjustment is made to the
     Settlement Rate pursuant to paragraph (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7) or
     (10) of this Section 5.7(a), an adjustment shall also be made to the
     Applicable Market Value solely to determine which of clauses (a), (b) or
     (c) of the definition of Settlement Rate in Section 5.1 will apply on the
     Purchase Contract Settlement Date. Such adjustment shall be made by
     multiplyin g the Applicable Market Value by a fraction of which the
     numerator shall be the Settlement

                                      49
<PAGE>

     Rate immediately after such adjustment pursuant to paragraph (1), (2), (3),
     (4), (5), (6), (7) or (10) of this Section 5.7(a) and the denominator shall
     be the Settlement Rate immediately before such adjustment; provided,
     however, that if such adjustment to the Settlement Rate is required to be
     made pursuant to the occurrence of any of the events contemplated by
     paragraph (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (7) or (10) of this Section 5.7(a)
     during the period taken into consideration for determining the Applicable
     Market Value, appropriate and customary adjustments shall be made to the
     Settlement Rate.

          (10) The Company may make such increases in the Settlement Rate, in
     addition to those required by this Section, as it considers to be advisable
     in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of
     Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or
     issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from
     any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons.

          (b)  Adjustment for Consolidation, Merger or Other Reorganization
Event.  In the event of (i) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or
into another Person (other than a merger or consolidation in which the Company
is the continuing corporation and in which the Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the merger or consolidation is not exchanged for cash,
securities or other property of the Company or another corporation), (ii) any
sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of the property of the
Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, (iii) any statutory
exchange of securities of the Company with another Person (other than in
connection with a merger or acquisition) or (iv) any liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Company other than as a result of or after the occurrence of a
Termination Event (any such event, a "Reorganization Event"), the Settlement
Rate will be adjusted to provide that each Holder of Securities will receive on
the Purchase Contract Settlement Date with respect to each Purchase Contract
forming a part thereof (or upon any Early Settlement), the kind and amount of
securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Reorganization Event
(without any interest thereon, and without any right to dividends or
distribution thereon which have a record date that is prior to the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date) by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable on account of each Purchase Contract if the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date had occurred immediately prior to such Reorganization Event
assuming such Holder of Common Stock is not a Person with which the Company
consolidated or into which the Company merged or which merged into the Company
or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (any such Person,
a "Constituent Person"), or an Affiliate of a Constituent Person to the extent
such Reorganization Event provides for different treatment of Common Stock held
by Affiliates of the Company and non-affiliates and such Holder failed to
exercise its rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of securities,
cash and other property receivable upon such Reorganization Event (provided that
if the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon
such Reorganization Event is not the same for each share of Common Stock held
immediately prior to such Reorganization Event by other than a Constituent
Person or an Affiliate thereof and in respect of which such rights of election
shall not have been exercised ("non-electing share"), then for the purpose of
this Section the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property
receivable upon such Reorganization Event by each non-electing share shall be
deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by the non-electing
shares).  In the event of such a Reorganization Event, the Person formed by such
consolidation, merger or exchange or the

                                      50
<PAGE>

Person which acquires or leases the assets of the Company or, in the event of a
liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the Company or a liquidating trust
created in connection therewith, shall execute and deliver to the Agent an
agreement supplemental hereto providing that the Holders of each Outstanding
Security shall have the rights provided by this Section 5.7. Such supplemental
agreement shall provide for adjustments which, for events subsequent to the
effective date of such supplemental agreement, shall be as nearly equivalent as
may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section. The above
provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization
Events.

          Section 5.8    Notice of Adjustments and Certain Other Events.

          (a)  Whenever the Settlement Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the
Company shall:

          (i)  forthwith compute the Settlement Rate in accordance with Section
     5.7 and prepare and transmit to the Agent an Officer's Certificate setting
     forth the Settlement Rate, the method of calculation thereof in reason able
     detail, and the facts requiring such adjustment and upon which such
     adjustment is based; and

          (ii) within 10 Business Days following the occurrence of an event
     that requires an adjustment to the Settlement Rate pursuant to Section 5.7
     (or if the Company is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as practicable
     after becoming so aware), provide a written notice to the Holders of the
     Securities of the occurrence of such event and a statement in reasonable
     detail setting forth the method by which the adjustment to the Settlement
     Rate was deter mined and setting forth the adjusted Settlement Rate.

          (b)  The Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or
responsibility to any Holder of Securities to determine whether any facts exist
which may require any adjustment of the Settlement Rate, or with respect to the
nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with
respect to the method employed in making the same.  The Agent shall not be
accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any
shares of Common Stock, or of any securities or property, which may at the time
be issued or delivered with respect to any Purchase Contract; and the Agent
makes no representation with respect thereto.  The Agent shall not be
responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any
shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Purchase Contract or to comply with any of
the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this
Article.

          Section 5.9    Termination Event; Notice.

          The Purchase Contracts and all obligations and rights of the Company
and the Holders thereunder, including, without limitation, the rights and
obligations of Holders to purchase Common Stock, shall immediately and
automatically terminate, without the necessity of any notice or action by any
Holder, the Agent or the Company, if, on or prior to the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date, a Termination Event shall have occurred.  Upon and after the
occurrence of a Termination Event, the Securities shall thereafter represent the
right to receive the Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of
the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, forming a part of such Securities in
the case of Income PRIDES, or Treasury Securities

                                      51
<PAGE>

in the case of Growth PRIDES, in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.3
of the Pledge Agreement; provided, however, that, to the extent that a Holder of
Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES would otherwise be entitled to receive less than
$1,000 principal amount at maturity of the Treasury Portfolio or the Treasury
Securities, the Agent shall dispose of such securities for cash, and transfer
the appropriate amount of such cash to such Holder in accordance with such
Holder's instructions. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Company
shall promptly but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter give
written notice to the Agent, the Collateral Agent and to the Holders, at their
addresses as they appear in the Register.

          Section 5.10    Early Settlement.

          (a) In the event the Company shall issue rights, options or warrants
to all holders of its Common Stock, distribute to all holders of its Common
Stock evidences of its indebtedness, shares of capital stock, securities, cash
or other property or complete a tender or exchange offer, in each case under
circumstances that would result in an adjustment to the Settlement Rate pursuant
to Section 5.7(a)(2), (4), (5) or (6), or there shall occur any Reorganization
Event that would result in an adjustment to the Settlement Rate pursuant to
Section 5.7(b), then, subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this
Section 5.10, at any time from and after the date which is 15 days prior to the
Applicable Transaction Date until 15 days after the Applicable Transaction Date,
Purchase Contracts underlying Securities having an aggregate Stated Amount equal
to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof may be settled early ("Early
Settlement") at the option of the Holder thereof; provided however, that if a
Tax Event Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred and the
Treasury Portfolio has become a component of the Income PRIDES, Purchase
Contracts underlying Income PRIDES may be settled early but only in an aggregate
amount of 80,000 Income PRIDES or in an integral multiple thereof.  In order to
exercise the right to effect Early Settlement with respect to any Purchase
Contracts, the Holder of the Certificate evidencing Securities shall deliver
such Certificate to the Agent at the Corporate Trust Office or the New York
Office duly endorsed for transfer to the Company or in blank with the form of
Election to Settle Early on the reverse thereof duly completed and accompanied
by payment (payable to the Company) in lawful money of the United States by wire
transfer, in each case in immediately available funds in an amount (the "Early
Settlement Amount") equal to (A) the product of (i) the Stated Amount times (ii)
the number of Purchase Contracts with respect to which the Holder has elected to
effect Early Settlement, plus (B) if such delivery is made with respect to any
Purchase Contracts during the period from close of business on any Record Date
next preceding any Payment Date to the opening of business on such Payment Date,
an amount equal to the Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, payable on such
Payment Date with respect to such Payment Contracts; provided that no payment
shall be required pursuant to clause (B) of this sentence if the Company shall
have elected to defer the Contract Adjustment Payments which would otherwise be
payable on such Payment Date.  Except as provided in the immediately preceding
sentence and subject to the second to last paragraph of Section 5.2, no payment
or adjustment shall be made upon Early Settlement of any Purchase Contract on
any Contract Adjustment Payments accrued on such Purchase Contract or on account
of dividends on the Common Stock issued upon such Early Settlement or on account
of any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments.  If the foregoing requirements are
first satisfied with respect to Purchase Contracts underlying any Securities at
or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on a Business Day, such day shall be
the "Early Settlement Date" with respect to such Securities and if such
requirements are first

                                      52
<PAGE>

satisfied after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on a Business Day or on a day
that is not a Business Day, the "Early Settlement Date" with respect to such
Securities shall be the next succeeding Business Day. For purposes of this
Section 5.10, "Applicable Transaction Date" means (1) in the case of an issuance
of rights, options or warrants or a distribution of indebtedness, capital stock,
securities, cash or other property contemplated by Section 5.7(a)(2), (4) or
(5), the record date for determining stockholders entitled to receive such
rights, options, warrants or distribution, (2) in the case of a tender or
exchange offer contemplated by Section 5.7(a)(6), the expiration date of such
tender or exchange offer and (3) in the case of a Reorganization Event
contemplated by Section 5.7(b), the effective date of such Reorganization Event.

          (b)   Upon Early Settlement of Purchase Contracts by a Holder of the
related Securities and payment of any transfer or similar taxes payable by such
Holder in connection with the issuance of the related Common Stock to any Person
other than such Holder, the Company shall issue, and the Holder shall be
entitled to receive, 0.6996 shares of newly issued Common Stock on account of
each Purchase Contract as to which Early Settlement is effected (the "Early
Settlement Rate").  The Early Settlement Rate shall be adjusted in the same
manner and at the same time as the Settlement Rate is adjusted.  As promptly as
practicable after Early Settlement of Purchase Contracts in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 5.10, the Company shall issue and shall deliver to
the Agent at the Corporate Trust Office a certificate or certificates for the
full number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Early Settlement
together with payment in lieu of any fraction of a share, as provided in Section
5.11.

          (c)   No later than the third Business Day after the applicable Early
Settlement Date, the Company shall cause (i) the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon Early Settlement of Purchase Contracts to be issued and delivered, and (ii)
the related Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the
Treasury Portfolio, in the case of Income PRIDES, or the related Treasury
Securities, in the case of Growth PRIDES, to be released from the Pledge by the
Collateral Agent and transferred, in each case to the Agent for delivery to the
Holder thereof or its designee.

          (d)   Upon Early Settlement of any Purchase Contracts, and subject to
receipt of shares of Common Stock from the Company and the Notes, the
appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio or Treasury
Securities, as the case may be, from the Collateral Agent, as applicable, the
Agent shall, in accordance with the instructions provided by the Holder thereof
on the applicable form of Election to Settle Early on the reverse of the
Certificate evidencing the related Securities, (i) transfer to the Holder the
Notes, Treasury Portfolio or Treasury Securities, as the case may be, forming a
part of such Securities, and (ii) deliver to the Holder a certificate or
certificates for the full number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such
Early Settlement together with payment in lieu of any fraction of a share, as
provided in Section 5.11.

          (e) In the event that Early Settlement is effected with respect to
Purchase Contracts underlying less than all the Securities evidenced by a
Certificate, upon such Early Settlement the Company shall execute and the Agent
shall authenticate, countersign and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the
expense of the Company, a Certificate evidencing the Securities as to which
Early Settlement was not effected.

                                      53
<PAGE>

          (f)  Upon determination that Holders are or will be entitled to settle
Purchase Contracts underlying their Securities early in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 5.10, but in no event later than 20 calendar days
prior to the Applicable Transaction Date, the Company shall issue a press
release and publish such information on its web site.

          Section 5.11  No Fractional Shares.

          No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares of Common
Stock shall be issued or delivered upon settlement on the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date or upon Early Settlement of any Purchase Contracts.  If
Certificates evidencing more than one Purchase Contract shall be surrendered for
settlement at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares of Common
Stock which shall be delivered upon settlement shall be computed on the basis of
the aggregate number of Purchase Contracts evidenced by the Certificates so
surrendered.  Instead of any fractional share of Common Stock which would
otherwise be deliverable upon settlement of any Purchase Contracts on the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date or upon Early Settlement, the Company, through
the Agent, shall make a cash payment in respect of such fractional interest in
an amount equal to the value of such fractional shares times the Applicable
Market Value.  The Company shall provide the Agent from time to time with
sufficient funds to permit the Agent to make all cash payments required by this
Section 5.11 in a timely manner.

          Section 5.12  Charges and Taxes.

          The Company will pay all stock transfer and similar taxes attributable
to the initial issuance and delivery of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to
the Purchase Contracts and in payment of any Deferred Contract Adjustment
Payments; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any
such tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any exchange of or
substitution for a Certificate evidencing a Security or any issuance of a share
of Common Stock in a name other than that of the registered Holder of a
Certificate surrendered in respect of the Securities evidenced thereby, other
than in the name of the Agent, as custodian for such Holder, and the Company
shall not be required to issue or deliver such share certificates or
Certificates unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the transfer or
issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall
have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid
or that no such tax is due.

                                  ARTICLE VI

                                   REMEDIES

          Section 6.1   Unconditional Right of Holders to Purchase Common Stock.

          The Holder of any Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES shall have the right,
which is absolute and unconditional, (A), subject to the right of the Company to
defer payment thereof pursuant to Section 5.3, and to the forfeiture of any
Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments upon Early Settlement pursuant to Section
5.10(c) or upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, to receive payment of
each installment of the Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, with respect to
the Purchase Contract constituting a part of such Security on

                                      54
<PAGE>

the respective Payment Date for such Security, and (B) to purchase Common Stock
pursuant to such Purchase Contract and, in each such case, to institute suit for
the enforcement of any such payment and right to purchase Common Stock, and such
rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

          Section 6.2  Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

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

          Section 6.3  Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

          Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificates in the last
paragraph of Section 3.10, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved
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 6.4  Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

          No delay or omission of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy
upon a default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of
any such right.  Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the
Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed
expedient, by such Holders.

          Section 6.5  Undertaking for Costs.

          All parties to this Agreement agree, and each Holder of Income PRIDES
or Growth PRIDES, by its acceptance of such Income PRIDES or Growth PRIDES 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 Agreement, or in any
suit against the Agent for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Agent,
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; provided that the provisions of this Section shall not
apply to any suit instituted by the Company, to any suit instituted by the
Agent, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the
aggregate more than 10% of the Outstanding Securities, or to any suit instituted
by any Holder for the enforcement of interest on any Notes on or after the
respective Payment Date therefor in respect of any Security held by such Holder,
or for enforcement of the right to purchase shares of

                                      55
<PAGE>

Common Stock under the Purchase Contracts constituting part of any Security held
by such Holder.

          Section 6.6  Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.

          The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that
it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim
or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted,
now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the
performance of this Agreement; and the Company (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law
and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any
power herein granted to the Agent or the Holders, but will suffer and permit the
execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

                                  ARTICLE VII

                                   THE AGENT

          Section 7.1  Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

          (a)  (1) The Agent undertakes to perform, with respect to the
Securities, such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in
this Agreement and the Pledge Agreement, and no implied covenants or obligations
shall be read into this Agreement and Pledge Agreement against the Agent; and

          (2)  The Agent may, with respect to the Securities, conclusively rely,
     as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions
     expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Agent and
     conforming to the requirements of this Agreement, but in the case of any
     certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically
     required to be furnished to the Agent, the Agent shall be under a duty to
     examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the
     requirements of this Agreement, but need not confirm or investigate the
     accuracy of mathematical calculations stated therein.

          (b)  No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the

          Section 7.9    Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

          (a)  No resignation or removal of the Agent and no appointment of a

applicable requirements of Section 7.10.

          (b)  The Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof
to the Company 30 days prior to the effective date of such resignation.  If the

jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Agent.

          (c)  The Agent may be removed at any time by Act of the Holders of a

<PAGE>

     request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide
     Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

          (2)  the Agent shall cease to be eligible under Section 7.8 and shall
     fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such
     Holder, or

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

then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the
Agent, or (ii) any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at
least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated,
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Agent and
the appointment of a successor Agent.

          (e)  If the Agent shall resign, be removed or become incapable of
acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Agent for any cause, the
Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Agent and
shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 7.10.  If no successor
Agent shall have been so appointed by the Company and accepted appointment in
the manner required by Section 7.10, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder
of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others
similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Agent.

          (f)  The Company shall give, or shall cause such successor Agent to
give, notice of each resignation and each removal of the Agent and each
appointment of a successor Agent by mailing written notice of such event by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders as their names and addresses
appear in the applicable Register.  Each notice shall include the name of the
successor Agent and the address of its Corporate Trust Office and New York
Office, if any.

          Section 7.10    Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

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

          (b) Upon request of any such successor Agent, the Company shall
execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and
confirming to such successor Agent all such rights, powers and agencies referred
to in paragraph (a) of this Section.

                                      60

time of such acceptance such successor Agent shall be qualified and eligible
under this Article.

corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business
of the Agent, shall be the successor of the Agent hereunder, provided such
corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto.  In case any Certificates shall have been
authenticated and executed on behalf of the Holders, but not delivered, by the
Agent then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to
such Agent may adopt such authentication and execution and deliver the
Certificates so authenticated and executed with the same effect as if such
successor Agent had itself authenticated and executed such Securities.

          Section 7.12    Preservation of Information; Communications to
Holders.

          (a)  The Agent shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably
practicable, the names and addresses of Holders received by the Agent in its
capacity as Registrar.

          (b)  If three or more Holders (herein referred to as "applicants")
apply in writing to the Agent, and furnish to the Agent reasonable proof that
each such applicant has owned a Security for a period of at least six months
preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the
applicants desire to communicate with other Holders with respect to their rights
under this Agreement or under the Securities and is accompanied by a copy of the
form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit,
then the Agent shall mail to all the Holders copies of the form of proxy or
other communication which is specified in such request, with reasonable
promptness after a tender to the Agent of the materials to be mailed and of
payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of such
mailing.

          Section 7.13    No Obligations of Agent.

          Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Agent
assumes no obligations and shall not be subject to any liability under this
Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or any Purchase Contract in respect of the
obligations of the Holder of any Security thereunder.  The Company agrees, and
each Holder of a Certificate, by his acceptance thereof, shall be deemed to have
agreed, that the Agent's execution of the Certificates on behalf of the Holders
shall be solely as agent and attorney-in-fact for the Holders, and that the
Agent shall have no obligation to perform such Purchase Contracts on behalf of
the Holders, except to the extent expressly provided in Article V hereof.

          Section 7.14    Tax Compliance.

          (a)  The Agent, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Company, will
comply with all applicable certification, information reporting and withholding
(including "backup"

                                      61

withholding) requirements imposed by applicable tax laws, regulations or
administrative practice with respect to (i) any payments made with respect to
the Securities or (ii) the issuance, delivery, holding, transfer, redemption or

taxing authority, and (to the extent required under applicable tax laws) timely

payments on, or redemptions of, the Securities which are required to be
prepared, filed, and furnished under applicable tax laws, (ii) withholding and
paying over to the applicable taxing authorities any tax withholdings that are
required to be made with respect to payments on, or redemptions of, the
Securities under applicable tax laws, and (iii) making reasonable efforts to
obtain from Holders all IRS Forms (and similar forms under applicable state,
local, and foreign tax law) and other documentation required under applicable
tax laws in order to establish exemptions from or reductions in withholding
taxes.

          (b)  The Agent shall comply with any written direction received from
the Company with respect to the application of such requirements to particular
payments or Holders or in other particular circumstances, and may for purposes
of this Agreement rely on any such direction in accordance with the provisions
of Section 7.1(a)(2) hereof.

          (c)  The Agent shall maintain all appropriate records documenting
compliance with such requirements, until such time as all applicable periods of
limitation for assessing or collecting any taxes or penalties for failure to
comply fully with such requirements have expired, and shall make such records
available, on written request, to the Company or its authorized representative
within a reasonable period of time after receipt of such request.

Company) shall be a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the
United States

                                      64

of America or a State thereof or the District of Columbia and such corporation
shall expressly assume all the obligations of the Company under the Purchase
Contracts, this Agreement, the Indenture, the Remarketing Agreement and the
Pledge Agreement by one or more supplemental agreements in form reasonably
satisfactory to the Agent and the Collateral Agent, executed and delivered to
the Agent and the Collateral Agent by such corporation, and (ii) the Company or
such successor corporation, as the case may be, shall not, immediately after
such merger or consolidation, or such sale, assignment, transfer, lease or
conveyance, be in default of its payment obligations under this Agreement or the
Notes, or in default of its obligations to deliver Common Stock (or other
property) on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date or any Early Settlement Date,

          In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer,
lease or conveyance and upon any such assumption by a successor corporation in
accordance with Section 9.1, such successor corporation shall succeed to and be
substituted for the Company with the same effect as if it had been named herein
as the Company, and its predecessor shall, except in the case of a lease, be
released from its obligations under this Agreement.  Such successor corporation
thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the
name of Electronic Data Systems Corporation any or all of the Certificates
evidencing Securities issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been
signed by the Company and delivered to the Agent; and, upon the order of such
successor corporation, instead of the Company, and subject to all the terms,

authenticate and execute on behalf of the Holders and deliver any Certificates
which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the
Company to the Agent for authentication and execution, and any Certificate
evidencing Securities which such successor corporation thereafter shall cause to
be signed and delivered to the Agent for that purpose.  All the Certificates so
issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this
Agreement as the Certificates theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement as though all of such Certificates had been
issued at the date of the execution hereof.

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

to the consummation of any such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment,
transfer, lease or conveyance have been met.

Agent, be paid to the Person in whose name this Income PRIDES Certificate (or a
Predecessor Income PRIDES Certificate) is registered at the close of business on

or prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date there shall have occurred a
Termination Event or an Early Settlement with respect to the Income PRIDES of
which such Purchase Contract is a part, all as provided in the Purchase Contract
Agreement and more fully described on the reverse hereof.  The purchase price

Purchase Contract Settlement Date by application of (1) cash received from a
Holder or (2) payment received in respect of the Notes or the appropriate
Applicable Ownership Interest (as specified in clause (A) of the definition of
such term) of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, pledged to secure the

Adjustment Payments, if any, shall be payable to the Person in whose name this
Income PRIDES Certificate (or a Predecessor Income PRIDES Certificate) is
registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such Payment Date.

          Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, will be payable at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Agent and at the New York Office or, at the option of the
Company, by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such
address appears on the Income PRIDES Register.

                (Form of Reverse of Income PRIDES Certificate)

          Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby is governed by a Purchase
Contract Agreement, dated as of June 26, 2001 (as may be supplemented from time
to time, the "Purchase Contract Agreement"), between the Company and The Chase
Manhattan Bank, as Purchase Contract Agent (including its successors thereunder,
herein called the "Agent"), to which Purchase Contract Agreement and
supplemental agreements thereto reference is hereby made for a description of
the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities
thereunder of the Agent, the Company and the Holders and of the terms upon which
the Income PRIDES Certificates are, and are to be, executed and delivered.  In
the case of any inconsistency between this Certificate and the terms of the
Purchase Contract Agreement, the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement shall
prevail.

          Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby obligates the Holder of this
Income PRIDES Certificate to purchase, and the Company to sell, on the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date at a price equal to the Purchase Price, a number of
newly issued shares of Common Stock of the Company equal to the Settlement Rate,
unless, on or prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, there shall have
occurred a Termination Event or an Early Settlement with respect to the Security
of which such Purchase Contract is a part.  The "Settlement Rate" is equal to
(a) if the Applicable Market Value (as defined below) is equal to or greater
than 71.47 (the "Threshold Appreciation Price"), $0.6996 shares of Common Stock
per Purchase Contract, (b) if the Applicable Market Value is less than the
Threshold Appreciation Price but is greater than $59.31, the number of shares of
Common Stock per Purchase Contract equal to the Stated Amount divided by the
Applicable Market Value and (c) if the Applicable Market Value is less than or
equal to $59.31, 0.8430 shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract, in each
case subject to adjustment as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement.  No
fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon settlement of Purchase
Contracts, as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement.

          Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby which is settled either
through Early Settlement or Cash Settlement shall obligate the Holder of the
related Income PRIDES to purchase at the Purchase Price, and the Company to
sell, a number of newly issued shares of Common Stock equal to the Early
Settlement Rate or the Settlement Rate, as applicable.

          The "Applicable Market Value" means the average of the Closing Price
per share of Common Stock on each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days ending on
the third Trading Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement
Date or, for purposes of determining cash payable in lieu of factional shares in
connection with an Early Settlement, the third Trading Day immediately preceding
the relevant Early Settlement Date.  The "Closing Price" of the Common Stock on
any date of determination means the closing sale price (or, if no closing price
is reported, the last reported sale price) of the Common Stock on The New York
Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") on such date or, if the Common Stock is not listed
for trading on the NYSE on any such date, as reported in composite transactions
for the principal United States securities exchange on which the Common Stock is
so listed, or if the Common Stock is not so listed on a United States national
or regional securities exchange, the last closing sales price on and as reported
by the Nasdaq National Market, or, if the Common Stock is not so reported, the
last quoted bid price for the Common Stock in the over-the-counter market as
reported by the

                                      A-7
<PAGE>

National Quotation Bureau or similar organization, or, if such bid price is not
available, the market value of the Common Stock on such date as determined by a
nationally recognized independent investment banking firm retained for this
purpose by the Company. A "Trading Day" means a day on which the Common Stock
(A) is not suspended from trading on any national or regional securities
exchange or association or over-the-counter market at the close of business and
(B) has traded at least once on the national or regional securities exchange or
association or over-the-counter market that is the primary market for the
trading of the Common Stock.

          In accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement, the
Holder of this Income PRIDES Certificate shall pay the Purchase Price for the
shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to each Purchase Contract evidenced
hereby by effecting a Cash Settlement or an Early Settlement or from the
Proceeds of a remarketing of the related pledged Notes of such holders or of the
appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio.  Unless a
Tax Event Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred, a Holder
of Income PRIDES who does not elect to make an effective (1) Cash Settlement on
or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day immediately
preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, or (2) Early Settlement on or
prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on the fifth Business Day immediately
preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, shall pay the Purchase Price
for the shares of Common Stock to be issued under the related Purchase Contract
from the Proceeds of the sale of the related pledged Notes held by the
Collateral Agent. Unless a Tax Event Redemption or a Successful Initial
Remarketing has occurred, such sale will be made by the Remarketing Agent
pursuant to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement and any supplemental
remarketing agreement executed in connection therewith between the parties
thereto, on the third Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date.  If a Tax Event Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing
has occurred, a Holder of Income PRIDES who does not elect to make an effective
Early Settlement on or prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on the second
Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date shall
pay the Purchase Price with the Proceeds at maturity of the Applicable Ownership
Interest (as defined in clause (A) of the definition of such term) of the
Treasury Portfolio.

          The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock
in respect of a Purchase Contract or deliver any certificates therefor to the
Holder unless it shall have received payment in full of the aggregate Purchase
Price for the shares of Common Stock to be purchased thereunder in the manner
herein set forth.

          Under the terms of the Pledge Agreement, the Agent will be entitled to
exercise the voting and any other consensual rights pertaining to the pledged
Notes. Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which holders of Notes are
entitled to vote or upon the solicitation of consents, waivers or proxies of
holders of Notes, the Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail to
the Income PRIDES holders a notice (a) containing such information as is
contained in the notice or solicitation, (b) stating that each Income PRIDES
holder on the record date set by the Agent therefor (which, to the extent
possible, shall be the same date as the record date for determining the holders
of Notes entitled to vote) shall be entitled to instruct the Agent as to the
exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the Notes constituting a part of
such holder's Income PRIDES and (c) stating the manner in which such
instructions may be given. Upon the

                                      A-8
<PAGE>

written request of the Income PRIDES Holders on such record date, the Agent
shall endeavor insofar as practicable to vote or cause to be voted, in
accordance with the instructions set forth in such requests, the maximum number
of Notes as to which any particular voting instructions are received. In the
absence of specific instructions from the Holder of an Income PRIDES, the Agent
shall abstain from voting the Notes evidenced by such Income PRIDES.

          Upon the occurrence of a Tax Event Redemption prior to the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date, pursuant to the terms of the Pledge Agreement, the
Collateral Agent will apply, out of the aggregate Redemption Price for the Notes
that are components of Income PRIDES, an amount equal to the aggregate
Redemption Amount for the Notes that are components of Income PRIDES to purchase
on behalf of the Holders of Income PRIDES, the Treasury Portfolio and, after
deducting the Remarketing Fee to the extent permitted under the terms of the
Remarketing Agreement, promptly remit the remaining portion of such Redemption
Price to the Agent for payment to the Holders of such Income PRIDES.

          Upon the occurrence of a Successful Initial Remarketing, pursuant to
the terms of the Remarketing Agreement, the Remarketing Agent will apply an
amount equal to the Treasury Portfolio Purchase Price to purchase on behalf of
the Holders of Income PRIDES, the Treasury Portfolio, and, after deducting the
Remarketing Fee to the extent permitted under the terms of the Remarketing
Agreement, promptly remit the remaining portion of such Proceeds of the
Successful Initial Remarketing to the Agent for payment to the Holders of such
Income PRIDES.

          Following the occurrence of a Tax Event Redemption prior to the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date or following a Successful Initial Remarketing,
the Holders of Income PRIDES and the Collateral Agent shall have such security
interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Treasury Portfolio as the
Holder of Income PRIDES and the Collateral Agent had in respect of the Notes, as
the case may be, subject to the Pledge thereof as provided in Articles 2, 3, 4,
5 and 6 of the Pledge Agreement and any reference herein to the Notes shall be
deemed to be a reference to such Treasury Portfolio and any reference herein or
in the Certificates to interest on the Notes shall be deemed to be a reference
to corresponding distributions on the Treasury Portfolio.

          The Income PRIDES Certificates are issuable only in registered form
and only in denominations of a single Income PRIDES and any integral multiple
thereof.  The transfer of any Income PRIDES Certificate will be registered and
Income PRIDES Certificates may be exchanged as provided in the Purchase Contract
Agreement.  The Income PRIDES Registrar may require a Holder, among other
things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents permitted by
the Purchase Contract Agreement. No service charge shall be required for any
such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company and the Agent may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge payable in connection therewith. A Holder who elects to substitute
Treasury Securities for Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest
of the Treasury Portfolio, thereby creating Growth PRIDES, shall be responsible
for any fees or expenses payable in connection therewith.  Except as provided in
the Purchase Contract Agreement, for so long as the Purchase Contract underlying
an Income PRIDES remains in effect, such Income PRIDES shall not be separable
into its constituent parts, and the rights and obligations of the Holder of such
Income PRIDES in respect of Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership
Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, and the

                                      A-9
<PAGE>

Purchase Contract constituting such Income PRIDES may be transferred and
exchanged only as an Income PRIDES. A Holder of an Income PRIDES may create a
Growth PRIDES by delivering to the Collateral Agent Treasury Securities in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the
pledged Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as specified in
clause (A) of the definition of such term) of the Treasury Portfolio, as the
case may be, in exchange for the release of such pledged Notes or the
appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case
may be, in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement and the
Pledge Agreement. From and after such Collateral Substitution, the Security for
which such pledged Treasury Securities secures the Holder's obligation under the
Purchase Contract shall be referred to as a "Growth PRIDES." A Holder may make
such Collateral Substitution only in integral multiples of 20 Income PRIDES for
the same multiple of 20 Growth PRIDES; provided, however, that if a Tax Event
Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred and the Treasury
Portfolio has become a component of the Income PRIDES, a Holder may make such
Collateral Substitutions only in integral multiples of 80,000 Income PRIDES for
the same multiple of 80,000 Growth PRIDES. Such Collateral Substitution may
cause the equivalent aggregate Stated Amount of this Certificate to be increased
or decreased; provided, however, the equivalent aggregate Stated Amount
outstanding under this Income PRIDES Certificate shall not exceed
$____________________. [All such adjustments to the equivalent aggregate Stated
Amount of this Income PRIDES Certificate shall be duly recorded by placing an
appropriate notation on the Schedule attached hereto.]

          A Holder of Growth PRIDES may recreate Income PRIDES by delivering to
the Collateral Agent Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of
the Treasury Portfolio, with an aggregate principal amount, in the case of such
Notes, or with the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as specified in
clause (A) of the definition of such term) of the Treasury Portfolio, in the
case of such appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury
Portfolio, equal to the aggregate principal amount of the pledged Treasury
Securities in exchange for the release of such pledged Treasury Securities in
accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Pledge
Agreement. Any such recreation of an Income PRIDES may be effected only in
multiples of 20 Growth PRIDES for the same multiple of 20 Income PRIDES;
provided, however, that if a Tax Event Redemption or a Successful Initial
Remarketing has occurred and the Treasury Portfolio has become a component of
the Income PRIDES, a Holder may make such substitution only in integral
multiples of 80,000 Growth PRIDES for the same multiple of 80,000 Income PRIDES.

          Subject to the next succeeding paragraph, the Company shall pay, on
each Payment Date, the Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, payable in respect
of each Purchase Contract to the Person in whose name the Income PRIDES
Certificate evidencing such Purchase Contract is registered at the close of
business on the Record Date for such Payment Date.  Contract Adjustment
Payments, if any, will be payable at the Corporate Trust Office of the Agent and
the New York Office or, at the option of the Company, by check mailed to the
address of the Person entitled thereto at such address as it appears on the
Income PRIDES Register or by wire transfer to the account designated by such
Person in writing.

          The Company shall have the right, at any time prior to the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date, to defer the payment of any or all of the Contract
Adjustment Payments, if any, otherwise payable on any Payment Date, but only if
the Company shall give the Holders and the

                                     A-10
<PAGE>

Agent written notice of its election to defer such payment (specifying the
amount to be deferred) as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement. Any
Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, so deferred shall, to the extent permitted
by law, bear additional Contract Adjustment Payments thereon at the rate of
7.625% per year (computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30 day
months), compounding on each succeeding Payment Date, until paid in full (such
deferred installments of Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, together with the
additional Contract Adjustment Payments accrued thereon, are referred to herein
as the "Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments"). Deferred Contract Adjustment
Payments, if any, shall be due on the next succeeding Payment Date except to the
extent that payment is deferred pursuant to the Purchase Contract Agreement. No
Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, may be deferred to a date that is after
the Purchase Contract Settlement Date and no such deferral period may end other
than on a Payment Date.

          In the event that the Company elects to defer the payment of Contract
Adjustment Payments, if any, on the Purchase Contracts until a Payment Date
prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, then all Deferred Contract
Adjustment Payments, if any, shall be payable to the registered Holders as of
the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding such Payment
Date.

          In the event that the Company elects to defer the payment of Contract
Adjustment Payments, if any, on the Purchase Contracts until the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date, the Holder of this Income PRIDES Certificate will
receive on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, in lieu of a cash payment, a
number of shares of Common Stock (in addition to the number of shares of Common
Stock equal to the Settlement Rate) equal to (x) the aggregate amount of
Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments payable to the Holder of this Income
PRIDES Certificate divided by (y) the Applicable Market Value.

          In the event the Company exercises its option to defer the payment of
Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, then, until the Deferred Contract
Adjustment Payments have been paid, the Company shall not declare or pay
dividends on, make distributions with respect to, or redeem, purchase or
acquire, or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its capital stock
other than: (i) purchases, redemptions or acquisitions of shares of capital
stock of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or
other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers or
directors or a stock purchase or dividend reinvestment plan, or the satisfaction
by the Company of its obligations pursuant to any contract or security
outstanding on the date of such event; (ii) as a result of a reclassification of
the Company's capital stock or the exchange or conversion of one class or series
of the Company's capital stock for another class or series of the Company's
capital stock; (iii) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the
Company's capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of
such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged; (iv) dividends
or distributions in capital stock of the Company (or rights to acquire capital
stock) or repurchases, acquisitions or redemptions of capital stock in
connection with the issuance or exchange of capital stock (or securities
convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our capital stock); (v)
redemptions, exchanges or repurchases of any rights outstanding under a
shareholder rights plan or the declaration or payment thereunder of a dividend
or distribution of or with respect to rights in the future; or (vi) mandatory
sinking fund payments with respect to any series of preferred stock of the
Company; provided that the aggregate stated value of all such series

                                     A-11
<PAGE>

outstanding at the time of such payment does not exceed 5% of the aggregate of
(1) the total principal amount of all then outstanding bonds or other securities
representing secured indebtedness issued or assumed by the Company and (2) the
Company's capital and surplus to be stated on the Company's books of account
after giving effect to such payment; provided however that any moneys deposited
into any sinking fund and not in violation of this clause (vi) may thereafter be
applied to the purchase or redemption of such preferred stock in accordance with
the terms of such sinking fund without regard to the foregoing restrictions.

          The Purchase Contracts and all obligations and rights of the Company
and the Holders thereunder, including, without limitation, the rights of the
Holders to receive and the obligation of the Company to pay Contract Adjustment
Payments, if any, or any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments, and the rights
and obligations of Holders to purchase Common Stock, shall immediately and
automatically terminate, without the necessity of any notice or action by any
Holder, the Agent or the Company, if, on or prior to the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date, a Termination Event shall have occurred. Upon the occurrence of
a Termination Event, the Company shall promptly but in no event later than two
Business Days thereafter give written notice to the Agent, the Collateral Agent
and to the Holders, at their addresses as they appear in the Income PRIDES
Register.  Upon and after the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Collateral
Agent shall release the Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest
of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, from the Pledge in accordance
with the provisions of the Pledge Agreement.

          Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of the Purchase
Contract Agreement, upon the occurrence of certain corporate transactions,
Purchase Contracts underlying Securities having an aggregate Stated Amount equal
to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof may be settled early ("Early
Settlement") at the option of the Holders thereof as provided in the Purchase
Contract Agreement; provided, however, that if a Tax Event Redemption or a
Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred and the Treasury Portfolio has
become a component of the Income PRIDES, Holders may early settle Income PRIDES
only in integral multiples of 80,000 Income PRIDES. In order to exercise the
right to effect Early Settlement with respect to any Purchase Contracts
evidenced by this Income PRIDES Certificate, the Holder of this Income PRIDES
Certificate shall deliver this Income PRIDES Certificate to the Agent at the
Corporate Trust Office or the New York Office duly endorsed for transfer to the
Company or in blank with the form of Election to Settle Early set forth below
duly completed and accompanied by payment in lawful money of the United States
by wire transfer, in each case in immediately available funds payable to the
Company in an amount (the "Early Settlement Amount") equal to (i) the product of
(A) the Stated Amount times (B) the number of Purchase Contracts with respect to
which the Holder has elected to effect Early Settlement plus (ii) if such
delivery is made with respect to any Purchase Contracts during the period from
the close of business on any Record Date next preceding any Payment Date to the
opening of business on such Payment Date, an amount equal to the Contract
Adjustment Payments, if any, payable on such Payment Date with respect to such
Purchase Contracts; provided that no payment shall be required pursuant to
clause (ii) of this sentence if the Company shall have elected to defer the
Contract Adjustment Payments which would otherwise be payable on such Payment
Date. Upon Early Settlement of Purchase Contracts by a Holder of the related
Securities, the pledged Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest
of the Treasury Portfolio underlying such Securities shall be released from the
Pledge as provided in the Pledge Agreement and the Holder shall be entitled to

                                     A-12
<PAGE>

receive a number of shares of Common Stock on account of each Purchase Contract
forming part of an Income PRIDES as to which Early Settlement is effected equal
to the Early Settlement Rate; provided, however, that upon the Early Settlement
of the Purchase Contracts, the Holder of such related Securities will forfeit
the right to receive any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments and any future
Contract Adjustment Payments, except to the extent that the Early Settlement
Date is after the close of business on a Record Date and prior to the opening of
business on the corresponding Payment Date. The Early Settlement Rate shall
initially be equal to 0.6996 shares of Common Stock and shall be adjusted in the
same manner and at the same time as the Settlement Rate is adjusted as provided
in the Purchase Contract Agreement.

          Upon registration of transfer of this Income PRIDES Certificate in
accordance with the Purchase Contract Agreement, the transferee shall be bound
(without the necessity of any other action on the part of such transferee,
except as may be required by the Agent pursuant to the Purchase Contract
Agreement) under the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Pledge
Agreement and the Purchase Contracts evidenced hereby and the transferor shall
be released from the obligations under the Purchase Contract Agreement, the
Pledge Agreement and the Purchase Contracts evidenced by this Income PRIDES
Certificate. The Company covenants and agrees, and the Holder, by its acceptance
hereof, likewise covenants and agrees, to be bound by the provisions of this
paragraph.

          The Holder of this Income PRIDES Certificate, by its acceptance
hereof, authorizes the Agent to enter into and perform the related Purchase
Contracts forming part of the Income PRIDES evidenced hereby on his behalf as
his attorney-in-fact, expressly withholds any consent to the assumption (i.e.,
affirmance) of the Purchase Contracts by the Company or its trustee in the event
that the Company becomes the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code, agrees
to be bound by the terms and provisions thereof, covenants and agrees to perform
its obligations under such Purchase Contracts, consents to the provisions of the
Purchase Contract Agreement, authorizes the Agent to enter into and perform the
Pledge Agreement on its behalf as its attorney-in-fact, and consents to the
Pledge of the Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the
Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, underlying this Income PRIDES
Certificate pursuant to the Pledge Agreement and to all other provisions of the
Pledge Agreement.  The Holder further covenants and agrees, that, to the extent
and in the manner provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Pledge
Agreement, but subject to the terms thereof, Proceeds of the pledged Notes or
the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as specified in clause (A) of the
definition of such term) of the Treasury Portfolio on the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date shall be paid by the Collateral Agent to the Company in
satisfaction of such Holder's obligations under such Purchase Contract and such
Holder shall acquire no right, title or interest in such Proceeds.

          Subject to certain exceptions, the provisions of the Purchase Contract
Agreement may be amended with the consent of the Holders of a majority of the
Purchase Contracts then outstanding.

          The Purchase Contracts shall for all purposes be governed by, and
construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard
to principles of conflicts of laws.

other purposes whatsoever, whether or not any payments in respect thereof be

therein.

          Pursuant to the Pledge Agreement, the Treasury Securities constituting
part of each Growth PRIDES evidenced hereby have been pledged to the Collateral
Agent, for the benefit of the Company, to secure the obligations of the Holder
under the Purchase Contract comprising a portion of such Growth PRIDES.

          The Pledge Agreement provides that all payments of the principal of
any Treasury Securities received by the Collateral Agent shall be paid by the
Collateral Agent by wire transfer in same day funds (i) in the case of any
principal payments with respect to any Treasury Securities that have been
released from the Pledge pursuant to the Pledge Agreement, to the Holders of the
applicable Growth PRIDES to the accounts designated by them in writing for such
purpose no later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day such
payment is received by the Collateral Agent (provided that in the event such
payment is received by the Collateral Agent on a day that is not a Business Day
or after 12:30 p.m., New York City time, on a Business Day, then such payment
shall be made no later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, on the next
succeeding Business Day), and (ii) in the case of the principal of any pledged
Treasury Securities, to the Company on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (as
defined herein) in accordance with the terms of the Pledge Agreement, in full
satisfaction of the respective obligations of the Holders of the Growth PRIDES
of which such pledged Treasury Securities are a part under the Purchase
Contracts forming a part of such Growth PRIDES.

          Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby obligates the Holder of this
Growth PRIDES Certificate to purchase, and the Company to sell, on August 17,
2004 (the "Purchase Contract Settlement Date"), at a price equal to $50 (the
"Stated Amount"), a number of newly issued shares of Common Stock, par value
$0.1 ("Common Stock"), of the Company equal to the Settlement Rate, unless on or
prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date there shall have occurred a
Termination Event or an Early Settlement with respect to the Growth PRIDES of
which such Purchase Contract is a part, all as provided in the Purchase Contract
Agreement and more fully described on the reverse hereof. The purchase price
(the "Purchase Price") for the shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to each
Purchase Contract evidenced hereby, if not paid earlier, shall be paid on the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date by application of the Proceeds from the
Treasury Securities pledged to secure the obligations under such Purchase
Contract in accordance with the terms of the Pledge Agreement.

          The Company shall pay on each Payment Date in respect of each Purchase
Contract forming part of a Growth PRIDES evidenced hereby an amount (the
"Contract

                                      B-2
<PAGE>

Adjustment Payments") equal to 1.845% per year of the Stated Amount, computed on
the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30 day months, subject to deferral at the
option of the Company as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement and more
fully described on the reverse hereof. Such Contract Adjustment Payments, if
any, shall be payable to the Person in whose name this Growth PRIDES Certificate
(or a Predecessor Growth PRIDES Certificate) is registered at the close of
business on the Record Date for such Payment Date.

          Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, will be payable at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Agent and at the New York Office or, at the option of the
Company, by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such
address appears on the Growth PRIDES Register or by wire transfer to the account
designated by such Person by prior written notice.

          Reference is hereby made to the further provisions set forth on the
reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same
effect as if set forth at this place.

          Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by
the Agent by manual signature, this Growth PRIDES Certificate shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Pledge Agreement or the Purchase Contract
Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

                              (Form of Reverse of
                          Growth PRIDES Certificate)

          Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby is governed by a Purchase
Contract Agreement, dated as of June 26, 2001 (as may be supplemented from time
to time, the "Purchase Contract Agreement"), between the Company and The Chase
Manhattan Bank, as Purchase Contract Agent (including its successors thereunder,
herein called the "Agent"), to which the Purchase Contract Agreement and
supplemental agreements thereto reference is hereby made for a description of
the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities
thereunder of the Agent, the Company and the Holders and of the terms upon which
the Growth PRIDES Certificates are, and are to be, executed and delivered. In
the case of any inconsistency between this Certificate and the terms of the
Purchase Contract Agreement, the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement shall
prevail.

          Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby obligates the Holder of this
Growth PRIDES Certificate to purchase, and the Company to sell, on the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date at the Purchase Price, a number of newly issued shares
of Common Stock of the Company equal to the Settlement Rate, unless, on or prior
to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, there shall have occurred a
Termination Event or an Early Settlement with respect to the Security of which
such Purchase Contract is a part. The "Settlement Rate" is equal to (a) if the
Applicable Market Value (as defined below) is equal to or greater than $71.47
(the "Threshold Appreciation Price"), 0.6996 shares of Common Stock per Purchase
Contract, (b) if the Applicable Market Value is less than the Threshold
Appreciation Price but is greater than $59.31, the number of shares of Common
Stock per Purchase Contract equal to the Stated Amount divided by the Applicable
Market Value and (c) if the Applicable Market Value is less than or equal to
$59.31, 0.8430 shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract, in each case
subject to adjustment as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement. No
fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon settlement of Purchase
Contracts, as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement.

          Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby which is settled through Early
Settlement shall obligate the Holder of the related Growth PRIDES to purchase at
the Purchase Price, and the Company to sell, a number of newly issued shares of
Common Stock equal to the Early Settlement Rate.

          The "Applicable Market Value" means the average of the Closing Price
per share of Common Stock on each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days ending on
the third Trading Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement
Date or, for purposes of determining cash payable in lieu of fractional shares
in connection with an Early Settlement, the third Trading Day immediately
preceding the relevant Early Settlement Date. The "Closing Price" of the Common
Stock on any date of determination means the closing sale price (or, if no
closing sale price is reported, the last reported sale price) of the Common
Stock on The New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") on such date or, if the Common
Stock is not listed for trading on the NYSE on any such date, as reported in
composite transactions for the principal United States securities exchange on
which the Common Stock is so listed, or if the Common Stock is not so listed on
a United States national or regional securities exchange, the last closing sales
price on and as reported as reported by the Nasdaq National Market or, if the
Common Stock is not so reported, the last quoted bid price for the Common Stock
in the over-the-counter market as

                                      B-6
<PAGE>

reported by the National Quotation Bureau or similar organization, or, if such
bid price is not available, the market value of the Common Stock on such date as
determined by a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm
retained for this purpose by the Company. A "Trading Day" means a day on which
the Common Stock (A) is not suspended from trading on any national or regional
securities exchange or association or over-the-counter market at the close of
business and (B) has traded at least once on the national or regional securities
exchange or association or over-the-counter market that is the primary market
for the trading of the Common Stock.

          In accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement, the
Holder of this Growth PRIDES Certificate shall pay the Purchase Price for the
shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to each Purchase Contract evidenced
hereby by effecting either an Early Settlement of each such Purchase Contract or
by applying a principal amount of the pledged Treasury Securities underlying
such Holder's Growth PRIDES equal to the Stated Amount to the purchase of the
Common Stock. A Holder of Growth PRIDES who does not elect, on or prior to 5:00
p.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day immediately preceding the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date, to make an Early Settlement, shall pay the
Purchase Price for the shares of Common Stock to be issued on the related
Purchase Contract by applying a principal amount of the pledged Treasury
Securities as aforesaid.

          The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock
in respect of a Purchase Contract or deliver any certificates therefor to the
Holder unless it shall have received payment in full of the aggregate Purchase
Price for the shares of Common Stock to be purchased thereunder in the manner
herein set forth.

          The Growth PRIDES Certificates are issuable only in registered form
and only in denominations of a single Growth PRIDES and any integral multiple
thereof. The transfer of any Growth PRIDES Certificate will be registered and
Growth PRIDES Certificates may be exchanged as provided in the Purchase Contract
Agreement. The Growth PRIDES Registrar may require a Holder, among other things,
to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents permitted by the
Purchase Contract Agreement. No service charge shall be required for any such
registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company and the Agent may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge
payable in connection therewith. A Holder who elects to substitute Notes or the
appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case
may be, for Treasury Securities, thereby recreating Income PRIDES, shall be
responsible for any fees or expenses payable in connection therewith. Except as
provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement, for so long as the Purchase
Contract underlying a Growth PRIDES remains in effect, such Growth PRIDES shall
not be separable into its constituent parts, and the rights and obligations of
the Holder of such Growth PRIDES in respect of the Treasury Security and the
Purchase Contract constituting such Growth PRIDES may be transferred and
exchanged only as a Growth PRIDES. A Holder of Growth PRIDES may recreate Income
PRIDES by delivering to the Collateral Agent Notes or the appropriate Applicable
Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, with an aggregate principal
amount, in the case of such Notes, or with the appropriate Applicable Ownership
Interest (as specified in clause (A) of the definition of such term) of the
Treasury Portfolio, in the case of such appropriate Applicable Ownership
Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, equal to the aggregate principal amount of
the pledged Treasury Securities in exchange for the release of such pledged

                                      B-7
<PAGE>

Treasury Securities in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract
Agreement and the Pledge Agreement. From and after such substitution, the
Security for which such pledged Notes or appropriate Applicable Ownership
Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, secures the Holder's
obligation under the Purchase Contract shall be referred to as an "Income
PRIDES." A Holder may make such a substitution only in integral multiples of 20
Growth PRIDES for the same multiple of 20 Income PRIDES; provided, however, that
if a Tax Event Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred and
the Treasury Portfolio has become a component of the Income PRIDES, a Holder may
make such substitution only in integral multiples of 80,000 Growth PRIDES for
the same multiple of 80,000 Income PRIDES. Such substitution may cause the
equivalent aggregate Stated Amount of this Certificate to be increased or
decreased; provided, however, the equivalent aggregate Stated Amount outstanding
under this Growth PRIDES Certificate shall not exceed $___________________. [All
such adjustments to the equivalent aggregate Stated Amount of this Growth PRIDES
Certificate shall be duly recorded by placing an appropriate notation on the
Schedule attached hereto.]

          A Holder of an Income PRIDES may create a Growth PRIDES by delivering
to the Collateral Agent Treasury Securities in an aggregate principal amount of
the pledged Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as specified
in clause (A) of the definition of such term) of the Treasury Portfolio, as the
case may be, in exchange for the release of such pledged Notes or the
appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case
may be, in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement and the
Pledge Agreement. Any such creation of a Growth PRIDES may be effected only in
multiples of 20 Income PRIDES for the same multiple of 20 Growth PRIDES;
provided, however, if a Tax Event Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing
has occurred and the Treasury Portfolio has become a component of the Income
PRIDES, a Holder may make such Collateral Substitution only in integral
multiples of 80,000 Income PRIDES for the same multiple of 80,000 Growth PRIDES.

          Subject to the next succeeding paragraph, the Company shall pay, on
each Payment Date, the Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, payable in respect
of each Purchase Contract to the Person in whose name the Growth PRIDES
Certificate evidencing such Purchase Contract is registered at the close of
business on the Record Date for such Payment Date. Contract Adjustment Payments,
if any, will be payable at the Corporate Trust Office of the Agent and the New
York Office or, at the option of the Company, by check mailed to the address of
the Person entitled thereto at such address as it appears on the Growth PRIDES
Register.

          The Company shall have the right, at any time prior to the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date, to defer the payment of any or all of the Contract
Adjustment Payments, if any, otherwise payable on any Payment Date, but only if
the Company shall give the Holders and the Agent written notice of its election
to defer such payment (specifying the amount to be deferred) as provided in the
Purchase Contract Agreement. Any Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, so
deferred shall, to the extent permitted by law, bear additional Contract
Adjustment Payments thereon at the rate of 7.625% per year (computed on the
basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30 day months), compounding on each succeeding
Payment Date, until paid in full (such deferred installments of Contract
Adjustment Payments, if any, together with the additional Contract Adjustment
Payments accrued thereon, are referred to herein as the "Deferred Contract
Adjustment Payments"). Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, shall be
due on the

                                      B-8
<PAGE>

next succeeding Payment Date except to the extent that payment is deferred
pursuant to the Purchase Contract Agreement. No Contract Adjustment Payments, if
any, may be deferred to a date that is after the Purchase Contract Settlement
Date and no such deferral period may end other than on a Payment Date.

          In the event that the Company elects to defer the payment of Contract
Adjustment Payments, if any, on the Purchase Contracts until a Payment Date
prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, then all Deferred Contract
Adjustment Payments, if any, shall be payable to the registered Holders as of
the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding such Payment
Date.

          In the event that the Company elects to defer the payment of Contract
Adjustment Payments, if any, on the Purchase Contracts until the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date, the Holder of this Growth PRIDES Certificate will
receive on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, in lieu of a cash payment, a
number of shares of Common Stock (in addition to the number of shares of Common
Stock equal to the Settlement Rate) equal to (x) the aggregate amount of
Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments payable to the Holder of this Growth
PRIDES Certificate divided by (y) the Applicable Market Value.

          In the event the Company exercises its option to defer the payment of
Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, then, until the Deferred Contract
Adjustment Payments have been paid, the Company shall not declare or pay
dividends on, make distributions with respect to, or redeem, purchase or
acquire, or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its capital stock
other than: (i) purchases, redemptions or acquisitions of shares of capital
stock of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or
other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers or
directors or a stock purchase or dividend reinvestment plan, or the satisfaction
by the Company of its obligations pursuant to any contract or security
outstanding on the date of such event; (ii) as a result of a reclassification of
the Company's capital stock or the exchange or conversion of one class or series
of the Company's capital stock for another class or series of the Company's
capital stock; (iii) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the
Company's capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of
such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged; (iv) dividends
or distributions in capital stock of the Company (or rights to acquire capital
stock) or repurchases, acquisitions or redemptions of capital stock in
connection with the issuance or exchange of capital stock (or securities
convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our capital stock); (v)
redemptions, exchanges or repurchases of any rights outstanding under a
shareholder rights plan or the declaration or payment thereunder of a dividend
or distribution of or with respect to rights in the future; or (vi) mandatory
sinking fund payments with respect to any series of preferred stock of the
Company; provided that the aggregate stated value of all such series outstanding
at the time of such payment does not exceed 5% of the aggregate of (1) the total
principal amount of all then outstanding bonds or other securities representing
secured indebtedness issued or assumed by the Company and (2) the Company's
capital and surplus to be stated on the Company's books of account after giving
effect to such payment; provided however that any moneys deposited into any
sinking fund and not in violation of this clause (vi) may thereafter be applied
to the purchase or redemption of such preferred stock in accordance with the
terms of such sinking fund without regard to the foregoing restrictions.

                                      B-9

          The Purchase Contracts and all obligations and rights of the Company
and the Holders thereunder, including, without limitation, the rights of the
Holders to receive and the obligation of the Company to pay Contract Adjustment
Payments, if any, or any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments, and the rights
and obligations of Holders to purchase Common Stock shall immediately and
automatically terminate, without the necessity of any notice or action by any
Holder, the Agent or the Company, if, on or prior to the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date, a Termination Event shall have occurred. Upon the occurrence of
a Termination Event, the Company shall promptly but in no event later than two
Business Days thereafter give written notice to the Agent, the Collateral Agent
and to the Holders, at their addresses as they appear in the Growth PRIDES
Register. Upon and after the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Collateral
Agent shall release the Treasury Securities from the Pledge in accordance with
the provisions of the Pledge Agreement.

          Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of the Purchase
Contract Agreement, upon the occurrence of certain corporate transactions,
Purchase Contracts underlying Securities having an aggregate Stated Amount equal
to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof may be settled early ("Early
Settlement") at the option of the Holders thereof as provided in the Purchase
Contract Agreement. In order to exercise the right to effect Early Settlement
with respect to any Purchase Contracts evidenced by this Growth PRIDES
Certificate, the Holder of this Growth PRIDES Certificate shall deliver this
Growth PRIDES Certificate to the Agent at the Corporate Trust Office or the New
York Office duly endorsed for transfer to the Company or in blank with the form
of Election to Settle Early set forth below duly completed and accompanied by
payment in lawful money of the United States by wire transfer, in each case in
immediately available funds payable to the Company in an amount (the "Early
Settlement Amount") equal to (i) the product of (A) the Stated Amount times (B)
the number of Purchase Contracts with respect to which the Holder has elected to
effect Early Settlement plus (ii) if such delivery is made with respect to any
Purchase Contracts during the period from the close of business on any Record
Date next preceding any Payment Date to the opening of business on such Payment
Date, an amount equal to the Contract Adjustment Payments, if any, payable on
such Payment Date with respect to such Purchase Contracts; provided that no
payment shall be required pursuant to clause (ii) of this sentence if the
Company shall have elected to defer the Contract Adjustment Payments which would
otherwise be payable on such Payment Date. Upon Early Settlement of Purchase
Contracts by a Holder of the related Securities, the pledged Treasury Securities
underlying such Securities shall be released from the Pledge as provided in the
Pledge Agreement and the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of shares
of Common Stock on account of each Purchase Contract forming part of a Growth
PRIDES as to which Early Settlement is effected equal to the Early Settlement
Rate; provided, however, that upon the Early Settlement of the Purchase
Contracts, the Holder of such related Securities will forfeit the right to
receive any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments and any future Contract
Adjustment Payments, except to the extent that the Early Settlement Date is
after the close of business on a Record Date and prior to the opening of
business on the corresponding Payment Date. The Early Settlement Rate shall
initially be equal to 0.6996 shares of Common Stock and shall be adjusted in the
same manner and at the same time as the Settlement Rate is adjusted as provided
in the Purchase Contract Agreement.

          Upon registration of transfer of this Growth PRIDES Certificate, the
transferee shall be bound (without the necessity of any other action on the part
of such transferee, except as

                                     B-10
<PAGE>

may be required by the Agent pursuant to the Purchase Contract Agreement) under
the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the
Purchase Contracts evidenced hereby and the transferor shall be released from
the obligations under the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and
the Purchase Contracts evidenced by this Growth PRIDES Certificate. The Company
covenants and agrees, and the Holder, by his acceptance hereof, likewise
covenants and agrees, to be bound by the provisions of this paragraph.

          The Holder of this Growth PRIDES Certificate, by its acceptance
hereof, authorizes the Agent to enter into and perform the related Purchase
Contracts forming part of the Growth PRIDES evidenced hereby on his behalf as
its attorney-in-fact, expressly withholds any consent to the assumption (i.e.,
affirmance) of the Purchase Contracts by the Company or its trustee in the event
that the Company becomes the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code, agrees
to be bound by the terms and provisions thereof, covenants and agrees to perform
its obligations under such Purchase Contracts, consents to the provisions of the
Purchase Contract Agreement, authorizes the Agent to enter into and perform the
Pledge Agreement on its behalf as its attorney-in-fact, and consents to the
Pledge of the Treasury Securities underlying this Growth PRIDES Certificate
pursuant to the Pledge Agreement and to all other provisions of the Pledge
Agreement. The Holder further covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in
the manner provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Pledge Agreement,
but subject to the terms thereof, Proceeds of the pledged Treasury Securities on
the Purchase Contract Settlement Date shall be paid by the Collateral Agent to
the Company in satisfaction of such Holder's obligations under such Purchase
Contract and such Holder shall acquire no right, title or interest in such
Proceeds.

          Subject to certain exceptions, the provisions of the Purchase Contract
Agreement may be amended with the consent of the Holders of a majority of the
Purchase Contracts then outstanding.

          The Purchase Contracts shall for all purposes be governed by, and
construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard
to principles of conflicts of laws.

          The Company, the Agent and its Affiliates and any agent of the Company
or the Agent may treat the Person in whose name this Growth PRIDES Certificate
is registered as the owner of the Growth PRIDES evidenced hereby for the purpose
of receiving payments on the Treasury Securities, receiving payments of Contract
Adjustment Payments, if any, and any Deferred Contract Adjustment Payments,
performance of the Purchase Contracts and for all other purposes whatsoever,
whether or not any payments in respect thereof be overdue and notwithstanding
any notice to the contrary, and neither the Company, the Agent nor any such
agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

          The Purchase Contracts shall not, prior to the settlement thereof,
entitle the Holder to any of the rights of a holder of shares of Common Stock.

          A copy of the Purchase Contract Agreement is available for inspection
at the offices of the Agent.

          Section 2.1    The Pledge. (a) The Holders from time to time as
beneficial owners of the Collateral (as defined below) acting through the
Purchase Contract Agent, as their attorney-in-fact, and the Purchase Contract
Agent, as nominal owner of the Collateral, each hereby pledge and grant to the
Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Company, as collateral security for the
performance when due by such Holders of their respective obligations under the

                                       6
<PAGE>

related Purchase Contracts, a security interest in all of the right, title and
interest of the Purchase Contract Agent and such Holders (a) in the Notes
constituting a part of the Securities and any Treasury Securities delivered in
exchange for any Notes (or, if applicable, the Applicable Ownership Interest in
the Treasury Portfolio), any Notes (or, if applicable, the Applicable Ownership
Interest in the Treasury Portfolio) delivered in exchange for any Treasury
Securities, in accordance with Article IV hereof, in each case that have been
Transferred to or received by the Collateral Agent and not released by the
Collateral Agent to such Holders under the provisions of this Agreement; (b) in
payments made by Holders pursuant to Section 4.4; (c) in the Collateral Account
and all securities, financial assets, Cash and other property credited thereto
and all Security Entitlements related thereto; (d) in the Treasury Portfolio
purchased on behalf of the Holders of Income PRIDES by the Collateral Agent upon
the occurrence of a Successful Initial Remarketing or a Tax Event Redemption as
provided in Article VI, or otherwise, and (e) all Proceeds of the foregoing (all
of the foregoing, collectively, the "Collateral").

          Prior to or concurrently with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, the Purchase Contract Agent, on behalf of the initial Holders of the
Securities, shall cause the Notes comprising a part of the Income PRIDES to be
Transferred to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Company.  Such Notes
shall be Transferred by physically delivering such Notes to the Securities
Intermediary indorsed in blank (or accompanied by a stock or bond power indorsed
in blank) and causing the Securities Intermediary to credit the Collateral
Account with such Notes such that security entitlements with respect to such
Notes are credited to the Collateral Account.  In the event a Holder of Income
PRIDES so elects, such Holder may Transfer Treasury Securities to the Collateral
Agent for the benefit of the Company as provided in Section 4.1 hereof in
exchange for the release by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Company of
Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury
Portfolio, as the case may be, with an aggregate principal amount equal to the
aggregate principal amount of the Treasury Securities so Transferred, in the
case of Notes, or with an appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as
specified in clause (A) of the definition of such term) of the Treasury
Portfolio equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Treasury Securities so
Transferred, in the event that a Successful Initial Remarketing or a Tax Event
Redemption has occurred, to the Purchase Contract Agent on behalf of such
Holder.  In the event that a Holder of Growth PRIDES so elects, such Holder may
Transfer Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury
Portfolio to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Company as provided in
Section 4.2 hereof in exchange for the release by the Collateral Agent on behalf
of the Company of Treasury Securities with an aggregate principal amount at
maturity equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes or the appropriate
Applicable Ownership Interest (as specified in clause (A) of the definition of
such term) of the Treasury Portfolio so transferred to the Purchase Contract
Agent on behalf of such Holder.  Treasury Securities and the appropriate
Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as applicable, shall be
Transferred to the Collateral Account maintained by the Collateral Agent at the
Securities Intermediary by book-entry transfer to the Collateral Account in
accordance with the TRADES Regulations and other applicable law and by the
notation by the Securities Intermediary on its books that a Security Entitlement
with respect to such Treasury Securities or appropriate Applicable Ownership
Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, has been credited to the Collateral Account.

          (b) For purposes of perfecting the Pledge under applicable law,
including, to the extent applicable, the TRADES Regulations or the Uniform
Commercial Code as adopted and in effect in any applicable jurisdiction, the
Collateral Agent shall be the agent of the Company as provided herein.  The
pledge provided in this Section 2.1 is herein referred to as the "Pledge" and
the Notes or Treasury Securities subject to the Pledge, excluding any Notes that
are delivered pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof or Treasury Securities released
from the Pledge as provided in Article IV hereof, are hereinafter referred to as
"Pledged Notes" or the "Pledged Treasury Securities," respectively.  Subject to
the Pledge and the provisions of Section 2.2 hereof, the Holders from time to
time shall have full beneficial ownership of the Collateral.  Whenever directed
by the Collateral Agent acting on behalf of the Company, the Securities
Intermediary shall have the right to reregister the Notes or any other
securities held in physical form in its name.

          Except as may be required in order to release Notes in connection with
a Holder's election to convert its investment from an Income PRIDES to a Growth
PRIDES, or except as otherwise required to release Notes as specified herein,
neither the Collateral Agent nor the Securities Intermediary shall relinquish
physical possession of any certificate evidencing a Note prior to the
termination of this Agreement, except Notes may be held in any clearing
corporation in an account including only assets of customers of the Collateral
Agent or Securities Intermediary.  If it becomes necessary for the Securities
Intermediary to relinquish physical possession of a certificate in order to
release a portion of the Notes evidenced thereby from the Pledge, the Securities
Intermediary shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain physical
possession of a replacement certificate evidencing any Notes remaining subject
to the Pledge hereunder registered to it or indorsed in blank (or accompanied by
a stock or bond power indorsed in blank) within fifteen days of the date it
relinquished possession.  The Securities Intermediary shall promptly notify the
Company and the Collateral Agent of the Securities Intermediary's failure to
obtain possession of any such replacement certificate as required hereby.

          Section 2.2    Control and Perfection.  (a) In connection with the
Pledge granted in Section 2.1, and subject to the other provisions of this
Agreement, the Holders from time to time acting through the Purchase Contract
Agent, as their attorney-in-fact, and the Purchase Contract Agent each hereby
authorize and direct the Securities Intermediary (without the necessity of
obtaining the further consent of the Purchase Contract Agent or any of the
Holders), and the Securities Intermediary agrees, to comply with and follow any
instructions and entitlement orders (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the
Code) that the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Company may give in writing
with respect to the Collateral Account, the Collateral credited thereto and any
Security Entitlements with respect to any thereof.  Such instructions and
entitlement orders may, without limitation, direct the Securities Intermediary
to transfer, redeem, sell, liquidate, assign, deliver or otherwise dispose of
the Notes, the Treasury Securities, the Treasury Portfolio, and any Security
Entitlements with respect thereto and to pay and deliver any income, proceeds or
other funds derived therefrom to the Company.  The Holders from time to time
acting through the Purchase Contract Agent hereby further authorize and direct
the Collateral Agent, as agent of the Company, to itself issue instructions and
entitlement orders, and to otherwise take action, with respect to the Collateral
Account, the Collateral credited thereto and any security entitlements with
respect thereto, pursuant to the terms and provisions hereof, all without the
necessity of obtaining the further consent of the Purchase Contract Agent or any

                                       8
<PAGE>

of the Holders.  The Collateral Agent shall be the agent of the Company and
shall act as directed in writing by the Company.  Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall issue entitlement orders
to the Securities Intermediary when and as directed by the Company.

          (b) The Securities Intermediary hereby confirms and agrees that: (i)
all securities or other property underlying any financial assets credited to the
Collateral Account shall be registered in the name of the Securities
Intermediary, indorsed to the Securities Intermediary or in blank or credited to
another collateral account maintained in the name of the Securities Intermediary
and in no case will any financial asset credited to the Collateral Account be
registered in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent, the Collateral Agent, the
Company or any Holder, payable to the order of, or specially indorsed to, the
Purchase Contract Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Company or any Holder except
to the extent the foregoing have been specially indorsed to the Securities
Intermediary or in blank; (ii) all property delivered to the Securities
Intermediary pursuant to this Pledge Agreement (including, without limitation,
any Notes, the Treasury Portfolio or Treasury Securities) will be promptly
credited on the books of the Securities Intermediary to the Collateral Account;
(iii) the Collateral Account is an account to which financial assets are or may
be credited, and the Securities Intermediary shall, subject to the terms of this
Agreement, treat the Purchase Contract Agent as entitled to exercise the rights
of any financial asset credited to the Collateral Account; (iv) the Securities
Intermediary has not entered into, and until the termination of this Agreement
will not enter into, any agreement with any other person relating to the
Collateral Account and/or any financial assets credited thereto pursuant to
which it has agreed to comply with entitlement orders (as defined in Section 8-
102(a)(8) of the Code) of such  other person; and (v) the Securities
Intermediary has not entered into, and until the termination of this Agreement
will not enter into, any agreement with the Company, the Collateral Agent or the
Purchase Contract Agent purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the
Securities Intermediary to comply with entitlement orders as set forth in this
Section 2.2 hereof.

          (c) The Securities Intermediary hereby agrees that each item of
property (whether investment property, financial asset, security, instrument or
cash) credited to the Collateral Account shall be treated as a "financial asset"
within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(9) of the Code.

          (d) In the event of any conflict between this Agreement (or any
portion thereof) and any other agreement now existing or hereafter entered into,
the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

          (e) The Purchase Contract Agent hereby irrevocably constitutes and
appoints the Collateral Agent and the Company, with full power of substitution,
as the Purchase Contract Agent's attorneys-in-fact to take on behalf of, and in
the name, place and stead of, the Purchase Contract Agent and the Holders, any
action necessary or desirable to perfect and to keep perfected the security
interest in the Collateral referred to in Section 2.1.  The grant of such power-
of-attorney shall not be deemed to require of the Collateral Agent any specific
duties or obligations not otherwise assumed by the Collateral Agent hereunder,
it being hereby acknowledged and agreed that the Collateral Agent shall have no
duty to file or record any documents in any jurisdiction for purposes of
perfecting or maintaining the security interest in

                                       9
<PAGE>

the Collateral except those that it shall be directed in writing to execute and
cause to be filed by the Company or the Purchase Contract Agent.

be, and (B) any payments of principal or, if applicable, the appropriate

hereof, to the Purchase Contract Agent, for the benefit of the relevant Holders
of Securities, to the account designated by the Purchase Contract Agent for such
purpose, no later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day such
payment is received by the Collateral Agent (provided that in the event such
payment is received by the Collateral Agent on a day that is not a Business Day

          (iii)  in the case of payments of the Proceeds of any Pledged Notes or

Proceeds of any Pledged Treasury Securities, to the Company on the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date to the extent of the Purchase Price in accordance with
the procedure set forth in Section 4.6(a) or 4.6(b) hereof, in full satisfaction
of the respective obligations of the Holders under the related Purchase
Contracts

                                       10
<PAGE>

and, to the extent such Proceeds exceed the Purchase Price, to the Purchase
Contract Agent for the benefit of the Holders.

          All payments received by the Purchase Contract Agent as provided
herein shall be applied by the Purchase Contract Agent pursuant to the
provisions of the Purchase Contract Agreement.  If, notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Purchase Contract Agent shall receive any payments of the
principal amount of the Note or, if applicable, the appropriate Applicable
Ownership Interest (as specified in clause (A) of the definition of such term)
on account of any Pledged Note or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest
of the Treasury Portfolio, as applicable, that, at the time of such payment, is

the obligations of the Holders under the related Purchase Contracts, and the
Holders shall acquire no right, title or interest in any such payments of

            SUBSTITUTION, RELEASE, REPLEDGE AND SETTLEMENT OF NOTES

          Section 4.1    Substitution for Notes and the Creation of Growth
PRIDES.  At any time on or prior to the fifth Business Day immediately preceding
the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or on or prior to the second Business Day
immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, if a Tax Event
Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred), a Holder of Income
PRIDES shall have the right to substitute Treasury Securities for the Pledged
Notes (or, if a Tax Event Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has
occurred, the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest in the Treasury
Portfolio) securing such Holder's obligations under the Purchase Contract(s)
comprising a part of its Income PRIDES in integral multiples of 20 Income PRIDES
by (a) Transferring to the Collateral Agent Treasury Securities having a Value
equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Pledged Notes (or appropriate
Applicable Ownership Interest (as defined in clause (A) of the definition of
such term) in the Treasury Portfolio as the case may be), to be released and
transferring the related Income PRIDES to the Purchase Contract Agent,
accompanied by a notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, to the
Purchase Contract Agent stating that such Holder has Transferred the relevant
Treasury Securities to the Collateral Agent pursuant to clause (a) above
(stating the Value of the Treasury Securities Transferred by such Holder) and
requesting that the Purchase Contract Agent instruct the Collateral Agent to
release from the Pledge the Pledged Notes or the appropriate Applicable
Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, related to
such Income PRIDES.  The Purchase Contract Agent shall instruct the Collateral
Agent in the form provided in Exhibit A; provided, however, that if a Tax Event
Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred and the Treasury
Portfolio has become a component of the Income PRIDES, Holders of Income PRIDES
may make such substitution only in integral multiples of 80,000 Income PRIDES at
any time on or prior to the second Business Day immediately preceding the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date.  Without limiting the generality of any other
provision herein, in no event shall the Collateral Agent have any liability for
acting in accordance with instructions in the form provided in Exhibit A. Upon
receipt of Treasury Securities from a Holder of Income PRIDES and the related
instruction from

                                       11
<PAGE>

the Purchase Contract Agent, the Collateral Agent shall release the Pledged
Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury
Portfolio, as the case may be, and shall promptly Transfer to the securities
account specified by the Purchase Contract Agent such Pledged Notes or the
appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case
may be, free and clear of any lien, pledge or security interest created hereby.
All items Transferred and/or substituted by any Holder pursuant to this Section
4.1, Section 4.2 or any other Section of this Agreement shall be Transferred
and/or substituted free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances.

          Section 4.2    Substitution of Treasury Securities and the Recreation
of Income PRIDES.  At any time on or prior to the fifth Business Day immediately
preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or on or prior to the second
Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, if a
Tax Event Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred), a Holder
of Growth PRIDES shall have the right to recreate Income PRIDES in integral
multiples of 20 Growth PRIDES by (a) Transferring to the Collateral Agent Notes
having a Value equal to the Value of the Pledged Treasury Securities to be
released (or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury
Portfolio with the Applicable Ownership Interest (as defined in clause (A) of
the definition of such term) having Value equal to the Value of the Pledged
Treasury Securities to be released) and (b) delivering the related Growth PRIDES
to the Purchase Contract Agent, accompanied by a notice, substantially in the
form of Exhibit B hereto, to the Purchase Contract Agent stating that such
Holder has transferred the relevant amount of Notes (or the appropriate
Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be) to
the Collateral Agent pursuant to clause (a) above and requesting that the
Purchase Contract Agent instruct the Collateral Agent to release from the Pledge
the Pledged Treasury Securities underlying such Growth PRIDES.  The Purchase
Contract Agent shall instruct the Collateral Agent in the form provided in
Exhibit A; provided, however, that if a Tax Event Redemption or a Successful
Initial Remarketing has occurred and the Treasury Portfolio has become a
component of the Income PRIDES, Holders of Growth PRIDES may make such
substitution only in integral multiples of 80,000 Growth PRIDES, at any time on
or prior to the second Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date.  Without limiting the generality of any other provision herein,
in no event shall the Collateral Agent have any liability for acting in
accordance with instructions in the form provided in Exhibit A.  Upon receipt of
the Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury
Portfolio, as the case may be, from such Holder and the instruction from the
Purchase Contract Agent, the Collateral Agent shall release the Treasury
Securities having a corresponding aggregate principal amount from the Pledge and
shall promptly Transfer such Treasury Securities, free and clear of any lien,
pledge or security interest created hereby, to the Purchase Contract Agent.

          Section 4.3    Termination Event.  Upon receipt by the Collateral
Agent of written notice from the Company or the Purchase Contract Agent that
there has occurred a Termination Event, the Collateral Agent shall release all
Collateral from the Pledge and shall promptly Transfer any Pledged Notes (or the
Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio if a Tax Event
Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred) and Pledged
Treasury Securities to the Purchase Contract Agent for the benefit of the
Holders of the Income PRIDES and the Growth PRIDES, respectively, free and clear
of any lien, pledge or security interest or other interest created hereby.

                                       12
<PAGE>

          If such Termination Event shall result from the Company's becoming a
debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, and if the Collateral Agent shall for any
reason fail promptly to effectuate the release and Transfer of all Pledged
Notes, the Treasury Portfolio or of the Pledged Treasury Securities, as the case
may be, as provided by this Section 4.3, the Purchase Contract Agent shall (i)
use reasonable efforts to obtain an opinion of a nationally recognized law firm
reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent to the effect that, as a result of
the Company's being the debtor in such a bankruptcy case, the Collateral Agent
will not be prohibited from releasing or Transferring the Collateral as provided
in this Section 4.3, and shall deliver such opinion to the Collateral Agent
within ten days after the occurrence of such Termination Event, and if (y) the
Purchase Contract Agent shall be unable to obtain such opinion within ten days
after the occurrence of such Termination Event or (z) the Collateral Agent shall
continue, after delivery of such opinion, to refuse to effectuate the release
and Transfer of all Pledged Notes, the Treasury Portfolio or the Pledged
Treasury Securities, as the case may be, as provided in this Section 4.3, then
the Purchase Contract Agent shall within fifteen days after the occurrence of
such Termination Event commence an action or proceeding in the court with
jurisdiction of the Company's case under the Bankruptcy Code seeking an order
requiring the Collateral Agent to effectuate the release and transfer of all
Pledged Notes, the Treasury Portfolio or of the Pledged Treasury Securities, as
the case may be, as provided by this Section 4.3 or (ii) commence an action or
proceeding like that described in subsection (i)(z) hereof within ten days after
the occurrence of such Termination Event.

          Section 4.4    Cash Settlement.  (a) Upon receipt by the Collateral
Agent of (i) a notice from the Purchase Contract Agent promptly after the
receipt by the Purchase Contract Agent of such notice that a Holder of an Income
PRIDES has elected, in accordance with the procedures specified in Section
5.5(a)(i) of the Purchase Contract Agreement to settle its Purchase Contract
with Cash and (ii) payment of the amount required to settle such Purchase
Contract by such Holder on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the
Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date in
lawful money of the United States by certified or cashiers' check or wire
transfer in immediately available funds payable to or upon the order of the
Company, then the Collateral Agent shall, at the written direction of the
Company, promptly invest any Cash received from a Holder in connection with a
Cash Settlement in Permitted Investments.  Upon receipt of the proceeds upon the
maturity of the Permitted Investments on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date,
the Collateral Agent shall pay the portion of such proceeds and deliver any
certified or cashiers' checks received and any funds so wired, in an aggregate
amount equal to the Purchase Price, to the Company on the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date, and shall distribute any funds in respect of the interest
earned from the Permitted Investments to the Purchase Contract Agent for payment
to the relevant Holders.

          (b) If a Holder of an Income PRIDES (unless a Tax Event Redemption or
a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred) fails to notify the Purchase
Contract Agent of its intention to make a Cash Settlement in accordance with
Section 5.5(a)(i) of the Purchase Contract Agreement, such failure shall
constitute an event of default under the Purchase Contract Agreement and
hereunder, and the Holder shall be deemed to have consented to the disposition
of the Pledged Notes pursuant to the remarketing as described in Section 5.5(b)
of the Purchase Contract Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference.
If a Holder of an Income PRIDES does notify the Purchase Contract Agent as
provided in Section 5.5(a)(i) of the Purchase Contract Agreement of its
intention to pay the Purchase Price in cash, but fails to make

                                       13
<PAGE>

such payment as required by Section 5.5(a)(ii) of the Purchase Contract
Agreement, the Pledged Notes of such a Holder will not be remarketed but instead
the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Company, will exercise its rights
as a secured party with respect to such Notes at the direction of the Company to
retain or dispose of the Collateral in accordance with applicable law. In
addition, in the event of a Failed Secondary Remarketing as described in Section
5.5(b) of the Purchase Contract Agreement, such Failed Secondary Remarketing
shall constitute an additional event of default hereunder by such Holder and the
Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Company, will also exercise its rights
as a secured party with respect to such Pledged Notes at the direction of the
Company to retain or dispose of the Collateral in accordance with applicable
law.

          Section 4.5    Early Settlement.  Upon written notice to the
Collateral Agent by the Purchase Contract Agent that one or more Holders of
Securities have elected to effect Early Settlement of their respective
obligations under the Purchase Contracts forming a part of such Securities in
accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contracts and the Purchase Contract
Agreement (setting forth the number of such Purchase Contracts as to which such
Holders have elected to effect Early Settlement), and that the Purchase Contract
Agent has received from such Holders, and paid to the Company as confirmed in
writing by the Company, the related Early Settlement Amounts pursuant to the
terms of the Purchase Contracts and the Purchase Contract Agreement and that all
conditions to such Early Settlement have been satisfied, then the Collateral
Agent shall release from the Pledge, (a) Pledged Notes or the appropriate
Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio in the case of a Holder
of Income PRIDES or (b) Pledged Treasury Securities in the case of a Holder of
Growth PRIDES, as the case may be, in each case with an aggregate principal
amount, as the case may be, equal to the product of (i) the Stated Amount times
(ii) the number of such Purchase Contracts as to which such Holders have elected
to effect Early Settlement and shall Transfer all such Pledged Notes, the
appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio or the
Pledged Treasury Securities, as the case may be, free and clear of the Pledge
created hereby, to the Purchase Contract Agent for the benefit of such Holders.

          Section 4.6    Application of Proceeds; Settlement.  (a) In the event
a Holder of Income PRIDES (unless a Tax Event Redemption or a Successful Initial
Remarketing has occurred) has not elected to make an effective Cash Settlement
by notifying the Purchase Contract Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent)
in the manner provided for in paragraph 5.5(a)(i) in the Purchase Contract
Agreement and has not made an Early Settlement of the Purchase Contracts
underlying its Income PRIDES, such Holder shall be deemed to have elected to pay
for the shares of Common Stock to be issued under such Purchase Contracts from
the Proceeds of the related Pledged Notes.  The Collateral Agent shall, by 10:00
a.m., New York City time, on the fourth Business Day immediately preceding the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date, without any instruction from such Holder of
Income PRIDES, present the related Pledged Notes to the Remarketing Agent for
remarketing.  Upon receiving such Pledged Notes, the Remarketing Agent, pursuant
to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement and the Supplemental Remarketing
Agreement, will use its reasonable efforts to remarket such Pledged Notes on
such date at a price of approximately 100.5% (but not less than 100%) of the
aggregate Value of such Pledged Notes.  After deducting as the Remarketing Fee
an amount not exceeding 25 basis points (.25%) of the aggregate Value of the
remarketed Pledged Notes from any amount of such Proceeds in excess of the
aggregate Value of the Remarketed Pledged Notes, the Remarketing

                                       14
<PAGE>

Agent will remit the entire amount of the Proceeds of such remarketing to the
Collateral Agent. On the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Collateral Agent
shall remit to the Company that portion of the Proceeds from such remarketing
equal to the aggregate Value of such remarketed Pledged Notes to satisfy in full
the obligations of such Holders of Income PRIDES to pay the Purchase Price to
purchase the Common Stock under the related Purchase Contracts. The remaining
portion of such Proceeds, if any, shall be remitted by the Collateral Agent to
the Purchase Contract Agent for payment to the Holders. If the Remarketing Agent
advises the Collateral Agent in writing that it cannot remarket the related
Pledged Notes of such Holders of Income PRIDES at a price not less than 100% of
the aggregate Value of such Pledged Notes or if the remarketing shall not have
occurred because a condition precedent to the remarketing shall not have been
fulfilled, thus resulting in a Failed Secondary Remarketing and an event of
default under the Purchase Contract Agreement and hereunder, the Collateral
Agent, for the benefit of the Company will, at the written direction of the
Company, retain or dispose of the Pledged Notes in accordance with applicable
law and satisfy in full, from any such disposition or retention, such Holder's
obligation to pay the Purchase Price for the Common Stock.

          (b) In the event a Holder of Growth PRIDES or Income PRIDES (if a Tax
Event Redemption or a Successful Initial Remarketing has occurred) has not made
an Early Settlement of the Purchase Contracts underlying its Growth PRIDES or
Income PRIDES, such Holder shall be deemed to have elected to pay for the shares
of Common Stock to be issued under such Purchase Contracts from the Proceeds of
the related Pledged Treasury Securities or the appropriate Applicable Ownership
Interest (as defined in clause (A) of the definition of such term) of the
Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be.  On the Business Day immediately prior
to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Collateral Agent shall, at the
written direction of the Purchase Contract Agent, which written direction shall
be furnished to the Collateral Agent prior to 11:30 a.m., New York City time,
invest the Cash proceeds of the maturing Pledged Treasury Securities or the
maturing appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as defined in clause (A) of
the definition of such term) of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, in
overnight Permitted Investments.  Without receiving any instruction from any
such Holder of Growth PRIDES or Income PRIDES, the Collateral Agent shall remit
to the Company that portion of the Proceeds of the related Pledged Treasury
Securities or appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as defined in clause
(A) of the definition of such term) of the Treasury Portfolio equal to the
aggregate Purchase Price of such Purchase Contracts on the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date.

          In the event the sum of the Proceeds from the related Pledged Treasury
Securities or appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as defined in clause
(A) of the definition of such term) of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may
be, and the investment earnings from the investment in overnight Permitted
Investments is in excess of the aggregate Purchase Price of the Purchase
Contracts being settled thereby, the Collateral Agent shall remit such excess,
when received, to the Purchase Contract Agent for the benefit of the Holders.

          (c) Pursuant to the Remarketing Agreement and subject to the terms of
the Supplemental Remarketing Agreement, on or prior to the second Business Day
immediately preceding the Initial Remarketing Date or the Secondary Remarketing
Date, as applicable, but no earlier than the Payment Date immediately preceding
such date, holders of Separate Notes may elect to have their Separate Notes
remarketed by delivering their Separate Notes, together with a notice of such
election, substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, to the Custodial Agent.

                                       15
<PAGE>

The Custodial Agent shall hold such Separate Notes in an account separate from
the Collateral Account.  A holder of Separate Notes electing to have its
Separate Notes remarketed will also have the right to withdraw such election by
written notice to the Custodial Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit D
hereto, on or prior to the second Business Day immediately preceding the Initial
Remarketing Date or the Secondary Remarketing Date, as applicable, upon which
notice the Custodial Agent shall return such Separate Notes to such holder.

          On the Business Day immediately preceding the Initial Remarketing Date
or the Secondary Remarketing Date, as applicable, the Custodial Agent shall
notify the Remarketing Agent of the aggregate principal amount of the Separate
Notes to be remarketed and will deliver to the Remarketing Agent for remarketing
all Separate Notes delivered to the Custodial Agent pursuant to this Section
4.6(c) and not withdrawn pursuant to the terms hereof prior to such date.  After
deducting the Remarketing Fee to the extent permitted under the terms of the
Remarketing Agreement, the Remarketing Agent will remit to the Custodial Agent
the remaining portion of the proceeds for the benefit of such holders.  In the
event of a Failed Initial Remarketing or a Failed Secondary Remarketing, as
applicable, the Remarketing Agent will promptly return such Separate Notes to
the Custodial Agent for redelivery to such holders.

                                   ARTICLE V
                             VOTING RIGHTS - NOTES

          The Purchase Contract Agent may exercise, or refrain from exercising,
any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Notes
or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this
Agreement and in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement;
provided, that the Purchase Contract Agent shall give the Company and the
Collateral Agent at least five days' prior written notice of the manner in which
it intends to exercise, or its reasons for refraining from exercising, any such
right.  Upon receipt of any notices and other communications in respect of any
Pledged Notes, including notice of any meeting at which holders of Notes are
entitled to vote or solicitation of consents, waivers or proxies of holders of
Notes, the Collateral Agent shall use reasonable efforts to send promptly to the
Purchase Contract Agent such notice or communication, and as soon as reasonably
practicable after receipt of a written request therefor from the Purchase
Contract Agent, execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent such proxies
and other instruments in respect of such Pledged Notes (in form and substance
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent) as are prepared by the Purchase Contract
Agent with respect to the Pledged Notes.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                   RIGHTS AND REMEDIES; TAX EVENT REDEMPTION

          Section 6.1    Rights and Remedies of the Collateral Agent.  (a) In
addition to the rights and remedies specified in Section 4.4 hereof or otherwise
available at law or in equity, after an event of default hereunder, the
Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies with respect to the
Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (or any
successor thereto) as in effect in the State of New York from time to time (the
"Code") (whether or not, to the extent permitted by law, the Code is in effect
in the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and the TRADES
Regulations and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is
entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where

                                       16
<PAGE>

any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted. Wherever reference is made in
this Agreement to any section of the Code, such reference shall be deemed to
include a reference to any provision of the Code, which is a successor to, or
amendment of, such section. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
such remedies may include, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i)
retention of the Pledged Notes or other Collateral in full satisfaction of the
Holders obligations under the Purchase Contracts or (ii) sale of the Pledged
Notes or other Collateral in one or more public or private sales.

          (b) Without limiting any rights or powers otherwise granted by this
Agreement to the Collateral Agent, in the event the Collateral Agent is unable
to make payments to the Company on account of the appropriate Applicable
Ownership Interest (as specified in clause (A) of the definition of such term)
of the Treasury Portfolio or on account of principal payments of any Pledged
Treasury Securities as provided in Article III hereof in satisfaction of the
obligations of the Holder of the Securities of which such Pledged Treasury
Securities, or the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as specified in
clause (A) of the definition of such term) of the Treasury Portfolio, as
applicable, is a part under the related Purchase Contracts, the inability to
make such payments shall constitute an event of default hereunder and the
Collateral Agent shall have and may exercise, with reference to such Pledged
Treasury Securities, or such appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest (as
specified in clause (A) of the definition of such term) of the Treasury
Portfolio, as applicable, and such obligations of such Holder, any and all of
the rights and remedies available to a secured party under the Code and the
TRADES Regulations after default by a debtor, and as otherwise granted herein or
under any other law.

          (c) Without limiting any rights or powers otherwise granted by this
Agreement to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably
authorized to receive and collect all payments of (i) principal and interest on
the Pledged Notes, (ii) the principal amount of the Pledged Treasury Securities,
or (iii) the appropriate Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury
Portfolio, subject, in each case, to the provisions of Article III, and as
otherwise granted herein.

          (d) The Purchase Contract Agent, individually and as attorney-in-fact
for each Holder of Securities, agrees that, from time to time, upon the written
request of the Collateral Agent, the Purchase Contract Agent or such Holder
shall execute and deliver such further documents and do such other acts and
things as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to maintain the
Pledge, and the perfection and priority thereof, and to confirm the rights of
the Collateral Agent hereunder.  The Purchase Contract Agent shall have no
liability to any Holder for executing any documents or taking any such acts
requested by the Collateral Agent hereunder, except for liability for its own
negligent act, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct.

          Section 6.2    Tax Event Redemption.  Upon the occurrence of a Tax
Event Redemption prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the aggregate
Redemption Price payable on the Tax Event Redemption Date with respect to the
Pledged Notes shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent by the Note Trustee on
or prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, by check or wire transfer in
immediately available funds at such place and at such account as may be
designated by the Collateral Agent in exchange for the Pledged Notes.  In the
event the Collateral Agent receives such Redemption Price, the Collateral Agent
will, at the written

                                       17
<PAGE>

direction of the Company, apply an amount, out of such Redemption Price, equal
to the aggregate Redemption Amount with respect to the Pledged Notes to purchase
from the Quotation Agent the Treasury Portfolio and promptly remit the remaining
portion of such Redemption Price to the Purchase Contract Agent for payment to
the Holders of Income PRIDES. The Collateral Agent shall Transfer the Treasury
Portfolio to the Collateral Account to secure the obligation of all Holders of
Income PRIDES to purchase Common Stock of the Company under the Purchase
Contracts constituting a part of such Income PRIDES, in substitution for the
Pledged Notes. Thereafter the Collateral Agent shall have such security
interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Treasury Portfolio as it
had in respect of the Pledged Notes as provided in Articles II, III, IV, V and
VI, and any reference herein to the Notes shall be deemed to be reference to
such Treasury Portfolio, and any reference herein to interest on the Notes shall
be deemed to be a reference to distributions on such Treasury Portfolio.

          Section 6.3    Initial Remarketing.  The Collateral Agent shall, by
10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the fourth Business Day immediately preceding
May 17, 2004, without any instruction from any Holder of Income PRIDES, present
the related Pledged Notes to the Remarketing Agent for remarketing.  Upon
receiving such Pledged Notes, the Remarketing Agent, pursuant to the terms of
the Remarketing Agreement, will use its reasonable efforts to remarket such
Pledged Notes on such date at a price of approximately 100.5% (but not less than
100%) of the Treasury Portfolio Purchase Price.  After deducting as the
Remarketing Fee an amount not exceeding 25 basis points (.25%) of the Treasury
Portfolio Purchase Price from any amount of such Proceeds in excess of the
Treasury Portfolio Purchase Price, the Remarketing Agent will remit the entire
amount of the Proceeds of such remarketing to the Collateral Agent on or prior
to 12:00 p.m., New York City time on May 17, 2004, by check or wire transfer in
immediately available funds at such place and at such account as may be
designated by the Collateral Agent in exchange for the Pledged Notes.  In the
event the Collateral Agent receives such Proceeds, the Collateral Agent will, at
the written direction of the Company, apply an amount equal to the Treasury
Portfolio Purchase Price to purchase from the Quotation Agent the Treasury
Portfolio and promptly remit the remaining portion of such Proceeds to the
Purchase Contract Agent for payment to the Holders of Income PRIDES.  The
Collateral Agent shall Transfer the Treasury Portfolio to the Collateral Account
to secure the obligation of all Holders of Income PRIDES to purchase Common
Stock of the Company under the Purchase Contracts constituting a part of such
Income PRIDES, in substitution for the Pledged Notes.  Thereafter the Collateral
Agent shall have such security interests, rights and obligations with respect to
the Treasury Portfolio as it had in respect of the Pledged Notes as provided in
Articles II, III, IV, V and VI, and any reference herein to the Notes shall be
deemed to be reference to such Treasury Portfolio, and any reference herein to
interest on the Notes shall be deemed to be a reference to distributions on such
Treasury Portfolio.

          Section 6.4    Substitutions.  Whenever a Holder has the right to
substitute Treasury Securities, Notes or the appropriate Applicable Ownership
Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, for Collateral held by
the Collateral Agent, such substitution shall not constitute a novation of the
security interest created hereby.

                   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; COVENANTS

          Section 7.1    Representations and Warranties.  The Holders from time
to time, acting through the Purchase Contract Agent as their attorney-in-fact
(it being understood that the Purchase Contract Agent shall not be liable for
any representation or warranty made by or on behalf of a Holder), hereby
represent and warrant to the Collateral Agent, which representations and
warranties shall be deemed repeated on each day a Holder Transfers Collateral
that:

          (a) such Holder has the power to grant a security interest in and lien
on the Collateral;

          (b) such Holder is the sole beneficial owner of the Collateral and, in
the case of Collateral delivered in physical form, is the sole holder of such
Collateral and is the sole beneficial owner of, or has the right to Transfer,
the Collateral it Transfers to the Collateral Agent, free and clear of any
security interest, lien, encumbrance, call, liability to pay money or other
restriction other than the security interest and lien granted under Article II
hereof;

          (c) upon the Transfer of the Collateral to the Collateral Account, the
Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Company, will have a valid and
perfected first priority security interest therein (assuming that any central
clearing operation or any Intermediary or other entity not within the control of
the Holder involved in the Transfer of the Collateral, including the Collateral
Agent, gives the notices and takes the action required of it hereunder and under
applicable law for perfection of that interest and assuming the establishment
and exercise of control pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof); and

          (d) the execution and performance by the Holder of its obligations
under this Agreement will not result in the creation of any security interest,
lien or other encumbrance on the Collateral other than the security interest and
lien granted under Article II hereof or violate any provision of any existing
law or regulation applicable to it or of any mortgage, charge, pledge,
indenture, contract or undertaking to which it is a party or which is binding on
it or any of its assets.

          Section 7.2    Covenants.  The Holders from time to time, acting
through the Purchase Contract Agent as their attorney-in-fact (it being
understood that the Purchase Contract Agent shall not be liable for any covenant
made by or on behalf of a Holder), hereby covenant to the Collateral Agent that
for so long as the Collateral remains subject to the Pledge:

          (a) neither the Purchase Contract Agent nor such Holders will create
or purport to create or allow to subsist any mortgage, charge, lien, pledge or
any other security interest whatsoever over the Collateral or any part of it
other than pursuant to this Agreement; and

          (b) neither the Purchase Contract Agent nor such Holders will sell or
otherwise dispose (or attempt to dispose) of the Collateral or any part of it
except for the beneficial interest therein, subject to the pledge hereunder,
transferred in connection with the Transfer of the Securities.

                              THE COLLATERAL AGENT

          It is hereby agreed as follows:

          Section 8.1    Appointment, Powers and Immunities.  The Collateral
Agent shall act as Agent for the Company hereunder with such powers as are
specifically vested in the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement,
together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Each of
the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary:  (a)
shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in
this Agreement and no implied covenants or obligations shall be inferred from
this Agreement against any of them, nor shall any of them be bound by the
provisions of any agreement beyond the specific terms hereof; (b) shall not be
responsible for any recitals contained in this Agreement, or in any certificate
or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by it under, this
Agreement, the Securities or the Purchase Contract Agreement, or for the value,
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement (other than as against the Collateral Agent), the Securities or the
Purchase Contract Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for
herein or therein or for any failure by the Company or any other Person (except
the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the
case may be) to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or for
the perfection, priority or, except as expressly required hereby, maintenance of
any security interest created hereunder (it being acknowledged and agreed that
the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to file or record any documents in any
jurisdiction for purposes of perfecting or maintaining the security interest in
the Collateral except those that it shall be directed in writing to execute and
cause to be filed by the Company or the Purchase Contract Agent); (c) shall not
be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings
hereunder (except in the case of the Collateral Agent, pursuant to directions
furnished under Section 8.2 hereof, subject to Section 8.6 hereof); (d) shall
not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder
or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or
in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence, bad
faith or willful misconduct; (e) shall not be required to advise any party as to
selling or retaining, or taking or refraining from taking any action with
respect to, the Securities or other property deposited hereunder; and (f) shall
not be responsible for the acts or omissions of any clearing corporation with
whom collateral is deposited.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, none of the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the
Securities Intermediary shall have any obligation, duty or responsibility to
take any action unless such action is non-discretionary and explicitly required
hereunder or in a written direction from the Company or the Purchase Contract
Agent given in accordance with the terms hereof.  Subject to the foregoing,
during the term of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall take all
reasonable action in connection with the safekeeping and preservation of the
Collateral hereunder.

          No provision of this Agreement shall require the Collateral Agent, the
Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary to expend or risk its own funds
or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its
duties hereunder.  In no event shall the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent
or the Securities Intermediary be liable for any amount in excess of the Value
of the Collateral.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Agent, the
Custodial Agent, the Purchase Contract Agent and Securities Intermediary, each
in its individual

                                       20
<PAGE>

capacity, hereby waive any right of setoff, bankers lien, liens or perfection
rights as securities intermediary or any counterclaim with respect to any of the
Collateral.

          Section 8.2    Instructions of the Company.  The Company shall have
the right, by one or more instruments in writing executed and delivered to the
Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the
case may be, to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
for the realization of any right or remedy available to the Collateral Agent, or
of exercising any power conferred on the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent
or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, or to direct the taking or
refraining from taking of any action authorized by this Agreement; provided,
however, that (i) such direction shall not conflict with the provisions of any
law or of this Agreement and (ii) the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and
the Securities Intermediary shall be adequately indemnified as provided herein.

          Nothing in this Section 8.2 shall impair the right of the Collateral
Agent in its discretion to take any action or omit to take any action which it
deems proper and which is not inconsistent with such direction.

          Section 8.3    Reliance.  Each of the Securities Intermediary, the
Custodial Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled conclusively to rely
upon any certification, order, judgment, opinion, notice or other communication
(including, without limitation, any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telex or
facsimile) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or
sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons (without being required to
determine the correctness of any fact stated therein), and upon advice and
statements of legal counsel and other experts selected by the Collateral Agent,
the Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be.  As to
any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Collateral Agent,
the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance with
instructions given by the Company in accordance with this Agreement.

          Section 8.4    Rights in other Capacities.  The Collateral Agent, the
Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary and their affiliates may
(without having to account therefor to the Company) accept deposits from, lend
money to, make their investments in and generally engage in any kind of banking,
trust or other business with the Purchase Contract Agent, any Holder of
Securities and any holder of separate Notes (and any of their respective
subsidiaries or affiliates) as if it were not acting as the Collateral Agent,
the Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, and the
Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary and their
affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from the Purchase Contract
Agent, any Holder of Securities or any holder of separate Notes without having
to account for the same to the Company; provided that each of the Securities
Intermediary, the Custodial Agent and the Collateral Agent covenants and agrees
with the Company that it shall not accept, receive or permit there to be created
in favor of itself and shall take no affirmative action to permit there to be
created in favor of any other Person, any security interest, lien or other
encumbrance of any kind in or upon the Collateral and the Collateral shall be
segregated or the books and records of the Collateral Agent and not commingled
with any other assets of any such Person.

          Section 8.5    Non-Reliance.  None of the Securities Intermediary, the
Custodial Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be required to keep itself
informed as to the performance or observance by the Company, the Purchase
Contract Agent, the Remarketing Agent or any Holder of Securities of this
Agreement, the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Securities or any other document
referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or
books of the Purchase Contract Agent or any Holder of Securities.  The
Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall not
have any duty or responsibility to provide the Company or the Remarketing Agent
with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition
or business of the Purchase Contract Agent, any Holder of Securities or any
holder of separate Notes (or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates)
that may come into the possession of the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent
or the Securities Intermediary or any of their respective affiliates.

          Section 8.6    Compensation and Indemnity.  The Company agrees: (i) to
pay First Union from time to time such compensation as shall be agreed in
writing between the Company and First Union for all services rendered by First
Union as Collateral Agent, Custodial Agent and Securities Intermediary hereunder
and (ii) to indemnify the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and the
Securities Intermediary for, and to hold each of them harmless from and against,
any loss, liability or reasonable out-of-pocket expense incurred without gross
negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in
connection with the acceptance or administration of its powers and duties under
this Agreement, including the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses
(including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) of defending itself against
any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of such
powers and duties.  The Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and the Securities
Intermediary shall each promptly notify the Company of any third party claim
which may give rise to the indemnity hereunder and give the Company the
opportunity to participate in the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party, and no such claim shall be settled
without the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld.

          Section 8.7    Failure to Act. In the event of any ambiguity in the
provisions of this Agreement or any dispute between or conflicting claims by or
among the parties hereto or any other Person with respect to any funds or
property deposited hereunder, the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and the
Securities Intermediary shall be entitled, after notice to the Company and the
Purchase Contract Agent, at its sole option, to refuse to comply with any and
all claims, demands or instructions with respect to such property or funds so
long as such dispute or conflict shall continue, and none of the Collateral
Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall be or become
liable in any way to any of the parties hereto for its failure or refusal to
comply with such conflicting claims, demands or instructions. The Collateral
Agent, the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall be entitled to
refuse to act until either (i) such conflicting or adverse claims or demands
shall have been finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or
settled by agreement between the conflicting parties as evidenced in a writing,
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities
Intermediary, as the case may be, or (ii) the Collateral Agent, the Custodial
Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, shall have received
security or an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, the
Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, sufficient
to save the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities

                                       22

Intermediary, as the case may be, harmless from and against any and all loss,
liability or reasonable out-of-pocket expense which the Collateral Agent, the
Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, may incur by
reason of its acting without bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence.
The Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary may in
addition elect to commence an interpleader action or seek other judicial relief
or orders as the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities
Intermediary, as the case may be, may deem necessary. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, none of the Collateral Agent, the Custodial
Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall be required to take any action that
is in its opinion contrary to law or to the terms of this Agreement, or which
would in its opinion subject it or any of its officers, employees or directors
to liability.

          Section 8.8    Resignation.  Subject to the appointment and acceptance
of a successor Collateral Agent, Custodial Agent or Securities Intermediary as
provided below, (a) the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and the Securities
Intermediary may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Company and
the Purchase Contract Agent as attorney-in-fact for the Holders of Securities,
(b) the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary
may be removed at any time by the Company and (c) if the Collateral Agent, the
Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary fails to perform any of its
material obligations hereunder in any material respect for a period of not less
than 20 days after receiving written notice of such failure by the Purchase
Contract Agent and such failure shall be continuing, the Collateral Agent, the
Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary may be removed by the Purchase
Contract Agent.  The Purchase Contract Agent shall promptly notify the Company
of any removal of the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities
Intermediary pursuant to clause (c) of the immediately preceding sentence.  Upon
any such resignation or removal, the Company shall have the right to appoint a
successor Collateral Agent, Custodial Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the
case may be.  If no successor Collateral Agent, Custodial Agent or Securities
Intermediary, as the case may be, shall have been so appointed and shall have
accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Collateral Agent's,
Custodial Agent's or Securities Intermediary's giving of notice of resignation
or such removal, then the retiring Collateral Agent, Custodial Agent or
Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent, Custodial
Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be.  Each of the Collateral
Agent, the Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall be a bank with
a combined capital and surplus of at least $75,000,000  which directly or
through an affiliate maintains an office in New York, New York.  Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent, Custodial Agent or Securities
Intermediary, as the case may be, hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent,
Custodial Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, such successor
shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, Custodial Agent or
Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, and the retiring Collateral Agent,
Custodial Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, shall take all
appropriate action to transfer any money and property held by it hereunder
(including the Collateral) to such successor.  The retiring Collateral Agent,
Custodial Agent or Securities Intermediary shall, upon such succession, be
discharged from its duties and obligations as Collateral Agent, Custodial Agent
or Securities Intermediary hereunder.  After any retiring Collateral Agent's,
Custodial Agent's or Securities Intermediary's resignation hereunder as
Collateral Agent, Custodial Agent or Securities Intermediary, the provisions of
this Article VIII

                                       23
<PAGE>

shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Collateral Agent, Custodial
Agent or Securities Intermediary. Any resignation or removal of the Collateral
Agent hereunder shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement as the
simultaneous resignation or removal of the Custodial Agent and the Securities
Intermediary.

          Section 8.9    Right to Appoint Agent or Advisor.  The Collateral
Agent shall have the right to appoint agents or advisors in connection with any
of its duties hereunder, and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any
action taken or omitted by, or in reliance upon the advice of, such agents or
advisors selected in good faith.  The appointment of agents pursuant to this
Section 8.9 shall be subject to prior consent of the Company, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld.

          Section 8.10    Survival.  The provisions of this Article VIII shall
survive termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the
Collateral Agent or the Custodial Agent.

          Section 8.11    Exculpation.  Anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall any of the Collateral Agent, the
Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary or their officers, employees or
agents be liable under this Agreement to any third party for indirect, special,
punitive, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, including lost
profits, whether or not the likelihood of such loss or damage was known to the
Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary, or any of
them, incurred without any act or deed that is found to be attributable to gross
negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent, the
Custodial Agent or the Securities Intermediary.

                                  ARTICLE IX
                                   AMENDMENT

          Section 9.1    Amendment Without Consent of Holders.  Without the
consent of any Holders or the holders of any Separate Notes, the Company, the
Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent, the Securities Intermediary and the
Purchase Contract Agent, at any time and from time to time, may amend this
Agreement, in form satisfactory to the Company, the Collateral Agent, the
Custodial Agent, the Securities Intermediary and the Purchase Contract Agent,
for any of the following purposes:

          (a) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Company, and
the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company; or

          (b) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the
Holders, or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company so
long as such covenants or such surrender do not adversely affect the validity,
perfection or priority of the security interests granted or created hereunder;
or

          (c) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment
hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, Securities Intermediary or Purchase
Contract Agent; or

                                       24
<PAGE>

          (d) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions
herein which may be inconsistent with any other such provisions herein, or to
make any other provisions with respect to such matters or questions arising
under this Agreement, provided such action shall not adversely affect the
interests of the Holders.

          Section 9.2    Amendment with Consent of Holders.  With the consent of
the Holders of not less than a majority of the Purchase Contracts at the time
outstanding, by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company, the Purchase
Contract Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, the Company, when
duly authorized, the Purchase Contract Agent, the Collateral Agent, the
Custodial Agent and the Securities Intermediary may amend this Agreement for the
purpose of modifying in any manner the provisions of this Agreement or the
rights of the Holders in respect of the Securities; provided, however, that no
such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Security affected thereby,

          (a) change the amount or type of Collateral underlying a Security
     (except for the rights of holders of Income PRIDES to substitute the
     Treasury Securities for the Pledged Notes or the appropriate Applicable
     Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as the case may be, or the
     rights of Holders of Growth PRIDES to substitute Notes or the appropriate
     Applicable Ownership Interest of the Treasury Portfolio, as applicable, for
     the Pledged Treasury Securities), impair the right of the Holder of any
     Security to receive distributions on the underlying Collateral or otherwise
     adversely affect the Holder's rights in or to such Collateral; or

          (b) otherwise effect any action that would require the consent of the
     Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby pursuant to the
     Purchase Contract Agreement if such action were effected by an agreement
     supplemental thereto;

          (c) reduce the amount payable or  distributable  to Holders upon the
     remarketing of Notes; or

          (d) reduce the percentage of Purchase Contracts the consent of whose
     Holders is required for any such amendment.

          If any amendment referred to above would adversely affect only the
Income PRIDES or the Growth PRIDES, then only the affected class of Holders
shall be entitled to vote on the amendment and the amendment shall not be
effective except with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of
the affected class.  It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this
Article IX to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it
shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

          Section 9.3    Execution of Amendments.  In executing any amendment
permitted by this Section, the Collateral Agent, the Custodial Agent, the
Securities Intermediary and the Purchase Contract Agent shall be entitled to
receive and (subject to Section 8.1 hereof, with respect to the Collateral
Agent, and Section 7.1 of the Purchase Contract Agreement, with respect to the
Purchase Contract Agent) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of
Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted
by this

Agreement and that all conditions precedent, if any, to the execution and
delivery of such amendment have been satisfied. All amendments must be in
writing, signed by all parties to this Agreement.

          Section 9.4    Effect of Amendments.  Upon the execution of any
amendment under this Article IX, this Agreement shall be modified in accordance
therewith, and such amendment shall form a part of this Agreement for all
purposes; and every Holder of Certificates theretofore or thereafter

Purchase Contract Agreement shall be bound thereby.

          Section 9.5    Reference to Amendments.  Security Certificates
authenticated, executed on behalf of the Holders and delivered after the
execution of any amendment pursuant to this Article IX may, and shall if
required by the Company, the Collateral Agent or the Purchase Contract Agent,
bear a notation in form approved by the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent and
the Collateral Agent as to any matter provided for in such amendment.  If the
Company shall so determine, new Security Certificates so modified as to conform,
in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, the Purchase Contract Agent and the
Company, to any such amendment may be prepared and executed by the Company and
authenticated, executed on behalf of the Holders and delivered by the Purchase
Contract Agent in accordance with the Purchase Contract Agreement and without
charge or expense to Holders in exchange for Outstanding Security Certificates.

on the part of any party hereto or any of its agents to exercise, and no course
of dealing with respect to, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or
remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or
partial exercise by any party hereto or any of its agents of any right, power or
