            GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE JUNIOR SUBORDINATED
            -------------------------------------------------------
                                   DEBENTURES
                                   ----------

         Section 2.01   Designation and Principal Amount. There is hereby
authorized two series of Debentures, both to be designated the "8 1/8% Junior
Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due September 1, 2031," and each in
the initial aggregate principal amount of $309,300,000, which amount shall be as
set forth in any written orders of the Company for the authentication and
delivery of Junior Subordinated Debentures pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Base
Indenture and Section 7.01(a). Additional Junior Subordinated Debentures without
limitation as to amount, and without the consent of the holders of the then
Outstanding Junior Subordinated Debentures, may also be authenticated and
delivered in the manner provided in Section 2.01 of the Base Indenture. Any such
additional Junior Subordinated Debentures may be

                                       5
<PAGE>

authenticated and delivered before or after the Exchange Offer and will have the
same Stated Maturity and other terms as those initially issued.

         Section 2.02   Stated Maturity. The Stated Maturity of the Junior
Subordinated Debentures is September 1, 2031, and shall not be subject to
shortening or extension.

         Section 2.03 Form and Payment. The Junior Subordinated Debentures shall
initially be issued to the Trust in the form of one or more Definitive Debenture
Certificates without coupons in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof and shall contain the Private Placement
Legend. Principal and interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures issued in
definitive form will be payable, the transfer of such Junior Subordinated
Debentures will be registrable and such Junior Subordinated Debentures will be
exchangeable for Junior Subordinated Debentures bearing identical terms and
provisions at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee; provided,
however, that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by
check mailed to the registered holder at such address as shall appear in the
Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the registered holder of any
Junior Subordinated Debentures is the Property Trustee, the payment of the
principal of and interest (including Additional Interest, Special Interest and
Additional Tax Sums, if any) on such Junior Subordinated Debentures held by the
Property Trustee will be made at such place and to such account as may be
designated by the Property Trustee. The Register for the Junior Subordinated
Debentures shall be kept at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee.
The Trustee is hereby appointed registrar for the Junior Subordinated
Debentures.

         Section 2.04 Exchange and Registration of Transfer of Junior
Subordinated Debentures; Restrictions on Transfers; Depositary. If distributed
to holders of Capital Securities pursuant to Section 9.4 of the Trust Agreement,
the Junior Subordinated Debentures will be issued to such holders in the same
form as the Capital Securities that such Junior Subordinated Debentures replace
in accordance with the following procedures:

         (a) So long as Junior Subordinated Debentures are eligible for book-
entry settlement with the Depositary, or unless required by law, all Junior
Subordinated Debentures that are so eligible will be represented by one or more
Junior Subordinated Debentures in global form (a "Global Debenture") registered
in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary. Except as
provided in Section 2.04(i) below, beneficial owners of a Global Debenture shall
not be entitled to have Definitive Debenture Certificates registered in their
names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of
Definitive Debenture Certificates and will not be registered holders of such
Global Debentures; provided, however, that a Definitive Debenture Certificate
shall be issued upon any transfer of a beneficial interest in a Global Private
Debenture to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company and no Definitive
Debenture Certificate, or portion thereof, in respect of which the Company or an
Affiliate of the Company held any beneficial interest shall be resold,
retransferred or included in any Private Global Security until such Private
Debenture is freely tradeable in accordance with Rule 144(k) or exchanged for an
Exchange Debenture.

         (b) The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in Global
Debentures shall be effected through the Depositary in accordance with the
Indenture and the procedures and

                                       6
<PAGE>

standing instructions of the Depositary and the Trustee shall make appropriate
endorsements to reflect increases or decreases in principal amounts of such
Global Debentures.

         (c) Private Debentures that are distributed in replacement of Private
Capital Securities represented by a 144A Global Security will be represented by
a global Private Debenture (a "144A Global Debenture"). Transfers of beneficial
interests in a 144A Global Debenture will be subject to the restrictions on
transfer contained in the Private Placement Legend.

         (d) Private Debentures that are distributed in replacement of Private
Capital Securities represented by a Regulation S Global Security will be
represented by a global Private Debenture (a "Regulation S Global Debenture",
and together with the 144A Global Debenture, the "Global Private Debenture").
Prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial
interests in a Regulation S Global Debenture may only be held by the
Depositary's participants in the name of a nominee of Euroclear or Clearstream.
After the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, transfers of
beneficial interests in a Regulation S Global Debenture will not be subject to
any restrictions and beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Debenture
may be held by the Depositary's participants other than in the name of a nominee
of Euroclear and Clearstream.

         (e) Private Debentures that are distributed in replacement of
Definitive Capital Securities Certificates will be represented by Definitive
Debenture Certificates and transfers will be subject to the Private Placement
Legend and the requirements of Section 2.04(g)(1) or (g)(2).

         (f) Exchange Debentures that are distributed in replacement of Exchange
Capital Securities will be represented by a Global Debenture or in such other
form as the Trustee may direct.

         (g) Unless and until the earlier of (i) the date upon which Private
Debentures are exchanged for Exchange Debentures in connection with an effective
registration statement pursuant to the Exchange and Registration Rights
Agreement or (ii) the Transfer Restriction Termination Date:

                        (1) Definitive to Definitive Transfers. Any transfer of
         a Definitive Debenture Certificate shall be registered upon the
         Register only upon receipt by the Trustee of such Definitive Debenture
         Certificate accompanied by a duly completed and executed assignment in
         the form of Exhibit A-1 and, in the case of a transfer to an
         Institutional Accredited Investor, upon the receipt by the Trustee of a
         written certificate in the form of Exhibit B (or other certifications,
         legal opinions or other information as the Company may reasonably
         request to confirm that such transfer is exempt from the registration
         requirements of the Securities Act);

                        (2) Definitive into a 144A Global Debenture. So long as
         Private Debentures are eligible for book-entry settlement with the
         Depositary or unless otherwise required by law, upon any transfer of a
         Definitive Debenture Certificate to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A
         or to a non-U.S. Person in accordance with Regulation S, and upon
         receipt of the Definitive Debenture Certificate being so transferred,
         accompanied by

                                       7
<PAGE>

          a duly completed and executed assignment in the form attached hereto
          as Exhibit A-1, the Trustee shall make an endorsement on any 144A
          Global Debenture or any Regulation S Global Debenture, as the case may
          be, to reflect an increase in such Global Debenture and the Trustee
          shall cancel such Definitive Debenture Certificate;

                        (3) 144A Global Debenture into Regulation S Global
          Debenture. Any transfer in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S of
          a beneficial interest in a 144A Global Debenture to a transferee that
          takes delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S
          Global Debenture shall be reflected by an increase in a Regulation S
          Global Debenture and a corresponding decrease in the 144A Global
          Debenture, in each case by the Trustee making an endorsement on such
          Global Private Debenture, only upon receipt by the Trustee of a
          written certificate in the form of Exhibit C (or such other
          certifications, legal opinions or other information as the Company may
          reasonably request to confirm that such transfer is being made
          pursuant to such Rule 904); and

                        (4) Regulation S Global Debenture into 144A Global
          Debenture. Any transfer of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S
          Global Debenture to a transferee that takes delivery in the form of a
          beneficial interest in a 144A Global Debenture shall be reflected by
          an increase in the 144A Global Debenture and a corresponding decrease
          in the Regulation S Global Debenture in each case by the Trustee
          making an endorsement on such Global Private Debenture, and, prior to
          the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, only upon
          receipt by the Trustee of a written certificate in the form of Exhibit
          D (or such other certifications, legal opinions or other information
          as the Company may reasonably require).

         (h) Any Global Debenture may be endorsed with or have incorporated in
the text thereof such legends or recitals or changes not inconsistent with the
provisions of the Indenture as may be required by the Depositary, by any
national securities exchange or by the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. in order for the Private Debentures to be tradeable on the Portal
Market or as may be required for the Private Debentures to be tradeable on any
other market developed for trading of securities pursuant to Rule 144A or
required to comply with any applicable law or any regulation thereunder or with
the rules and regulations of any securities exchange upon which the Junior
Subordinated Debentures may be listed or traded or to conform with any usage
with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to
which any particular Junior Subordinated Debentures are subject.

         (i) Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Indenture (other than
the provisions set forth in this Section 2.04(i)), a Global Debenture may not be
exchanged in whole or in part for Definitive Debenture Certificates, and no
transfer of a Global Debenture may be registered, in the name of any person
other than the Depositary or a nominee thereof unless (i) such Depositary (A)
has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as
Depositary for such Global Debenture or (B) has ceased to be a clearing agency
registered as such under the Exchange Act and no successor Depositary has been
appointed by the Company within 90 days after its receipt of such notice or its
becoming aware of such ineligibility, (ii) there shall have occurred and be
continuing an Event of Default, or any event which after notice or lapse of time
or both would be an Event of Default under the Indenture, with respect to such
Debenture, or (iii) the Company, in its sole discretion, instructs the Trustee
to exchange such

                                       8
<PAGE>

Global Debenture for a Definitive Debenture Certificates (in which case such
exchange shall be effected by the Trustee).

         The Depositary shall be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange
Act. The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company to act as
Depositary with respect to the Global Debentures. Initially, any Global
Debentures shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as the nominee of the
Depositary, and deposited with the Depository or the Trustee as custodian for
Cede & Co.

         Definitive Debenture Certificates issued in exchange for all or a part
of a Global Debenture pursuant to this Section 2.04(i) shall be registered in
such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to
instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall
instruct the Trustee. Upon execution and authentication, the Trustee shall
deliver such Definitive Debenture Certificates to the person in whose names such
Definitive Debenture Certificates are so registered.

         So long as Junior Subordinated Debentures are represented by one or
more Global Debentures, (i) the registrar for the Junior Subordinated Debentures
and the Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes
of the Indenture relating to such Global Debentures as the sole holder of the
Junior Subordinated Debentures evidenced by such Global Debentures and shall
have no obligations to the holders of beneficial interests in such Global
Debentures; and (ii) the rights of the holders of beneficial interests in such
Global Debentures shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be
limited to those established by law and agreements between such holders and the
Depositary and/or the participants in the Depositary.

         At such time as all interests in a Global Debenture have been redeemed,
exchanged, repurchased or canceled, such Global Debenture shall be, upon receipt
thereof, canceled by the Trustee in accordance with standing procedures and
instructions of the Depositary. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any
interest in a Global Debenture is exchanged for Definitive Debenture
Certificates, redeemed by the Company pursuant to Article 3 or canceled, or
transferred for part of a Global Debenture, the principal amount of such Global
Debenture shall, in accordance with the standing procedures and instructions of
the Depositary be reduced or increased, as the case may be, and an endorsement
shall be made on such Global Debenture by, or at the direction of, the Trustee
to reflect such reduction or increase.

         Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Debentures that is
transferred to an owner who takes delivery in the form of an interest in the
other Global Debentures will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in the
former Global Debenture and will become an interest in the latter Global
Debentures and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer
restrictions and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such
latter Global Debenture for so long as it remains such an interest.

         Section 2.05 Interest. (a) Each Junior Subordinated Debenture will bear
interest at the rate of 8 1/8% per annum (the "Coupon Rate") from the Closing
Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) until the principal thereof becomes
due and payable, and will bear interest on any overdue principal at the Coupon
Rate and (to the extent that payment of such interest is

                                       9
<PAGE>

enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest at the
Coupon Rate ("Additional Interest"), compounded semiannually, payable (subject
to the provisions of Article 4) semiannually in arrears on the 1st day of March
and September of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing on
March 1, 2002, to the Person in whose name such Junior Subordinated Debenture is
registered, subject to certain exceptions, at the close of business on the
Record Date next preceding such Interest Payment Date. The "Record Date" for
payment of interest will be the Business Day next preceding the Interest Payment
Date, unless such Junior Subordinated Debenture is registered to a holder other
than the Property Trustee or a nominee of the Depositary, in which case the
Record Date for payment of interest will be the fifteenth day of the calendar
month next preceding the month in which the applicable Interest Payment Date
occurs or, if such fifteenth day of the month is not a Business Day, then the
Business Day next preceding such day. Until liquidation, if any, of the Trust,
each Junior Subordinated Debenture will be held in the name of the Property
Trustee in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Trust Securities.

         (b) The amount of interest payable for any period will be computed on
the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months (and for any partial periods
on the basis of the number of days elapsed in a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months). In the event that any date on which interest is payable on the Junior
Subordinated Debentures is not a Business Day, then payment of interest payable
on such date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day
(and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), in
each case with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was
originally payable.

         (c) If the Company does not comply with certain of its obligations
under the Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement, the Private Debentures
shall, in accordance with Section 2(e) of the Exchange and Registration Rights
Agreement, bear additional interest ("Special Interest") in addition to the
interest provided for in Section 2.05(a).

         (d) The Company will pay any Additional Tax Sums on the Junior
Subordinated Debentures pursuant to Section 4.08 of the Base Indenture.

                                   ARTICLE III

                REDEMPTION of THE JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES
                ------------------------------------------------

         Section 3.01 Tax Event or Investment Company Event Redemption. If a Tax
Event or Investment Company Event (either, a "Special Event") shall occur and be
continuing, the Company may redeem the Junior Subordinated Debentures at any
time within 90 days after the occurrence of that Special Event, in whole but not
in part, at a redemption price (the "Special Event Redemption Price") equal to
the Special Event Make-Whole Amount plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to
but excluding the redemption date. The Special Event Redemption Price shall be
paid prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of such redemption,
provided that the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount sufficient to
pay the Special Event Redemption Price by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the
date such Special Event Redemption Price is to be paid.

                                       10
<PAGE>

         Section 3.02 Optional Redemption by Company. The Company shall have the
option to redeem the Junior Subordinated Debentures at any time, in whole or in
part, at a redemption price (the "Optional Redemption Price") equal to the
Optional Redemption Make-Whole Amount plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon
to but excluding the redemption date. The Optional Redemption Price shall be
paid prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of such redemption,
provided that the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount sufficient to
pay the Option Redemption Price by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date
such Optional Redemption Price is to be paid.

         Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. Subject to Article Three of the Base
Indenture, notice of any redemption pursuant to this Article Three will be
mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to
each holder of Junior Subordinated Debentures to be redeemed at such holder's
registered address. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the applicable
redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest shall cease to
accrue on such Junior Subordinated Debentures called for redemption. The Company
will notify the Trustee of the amount of the redemption price promptly after the
calculation thereof and the Trustee will not be responsible for such
calculation.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                      EXTENSION OF INTEREST PAYMENT PERIOD
                      ------------------------------------

         Section 4.01 Extension of Interest Payment Period. So long no Event of
Default under Section 6.01 of the Base Indenture has occurred and is continuing,
the Company shall have the right, subject to the provisions of Section 2.10 of
the Base Indenture, at any time during the term of the Junior Subordinated
Debentures, from time to time to defer the payment of interest by extending the
interest payment period of such Junior Subordinated Debentures for a period not
exceeding 10 consecutive semi-annual periods (an "Extension Period"), during
which Extension Period the Company shall have the right to make partial payments
of interest on any Interest Payment Date. No Extension Period shall end on a
date other than an Interest Payment Date or extend beyond the Stated Maturity or
any earlier redemption date. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
interest, the payment of which has been deferred because of an Extension Period
imposed pursuant to this Section 4.01, will bear Additional Interest compounded
semi-annually. At the end of the Extension Period, the Company shall pay all
interest then accrued and unpaid on the Junior Subordinated Debentures,
including any Additional Interest, Special Interest and Additional Tax Sums, if
applicable, to the holders of the Junior Subordinated Debentures in whose names
the Junior Subordinated Debentures are registered in the Register on the first
Record Date preceding the end of the Extension Period. Before the termination of
any Extension Period, the Company may further extend such Extension Period,
provided that such period together with all such further extensions thereof
shall not exceed 10 consecutive semi- annual periods, or extend beyond the
Stated Maturity or any earlier redemption date. At any time following the
termination of any Extension Period and upon the payment of any accrued and
unpaid Additional Interest and Special Interest then due, the Company may elect
to begin a new Extension Period, subject to the foregoing requirements. No
interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except at the end
thereof.

         Section 4.02 Notice of Extension. (a) If the Property Trustee is the
only registered holder of the Junior Subordinated Debentures at the time the
Company elects to begin or extend an Extension Period, the Company shall give
written notice to the Property Trustee and the Trustee of its election to begin
or extend any Extension Period at least five Business Days prior to the earlier
of (i) the next succeeding date on which Distributions on the Capital Securities
issued by the Trust would have been payable but for the election to begin or
extend such Extension Period or (ii) the date the Administrative Trustees are
required to give notice to any securities exchange or other applicable self-
regulatory organization or to holders of such Capital Securities of the record
date or the date such Distributions are payable, but in any event not less than
five Business Days prior to such record date. An Administrative Trustee shall
give notice of the Company's election to begin or extend an Extension Period to
the holders of such Capital Securities.

                (b) If the Property Trustee is not the only holder of the Junior
Subordinated Debentures at the time the Company elects to begin or extend an
Extension Period, the Company shall give the holders of the Junior Subordinated
Debentures and the Trustee written notice of its election to begin or extend
such Extension Period at least ten Business Days prior to the earlier of (i) the
next succeeding Interest Payment Date or (ii) the date the Company is required
to give notice of the record or payment date of such interest payment to any
applicable self-regulatory organization or to holders of the Junior Subordinated
Debentures.

                (c) The semi-annual period in which any notice is given
pursuant to paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section 4.02 shall be counted as one
of the 10 consecutive semi-annual periods permitted in the maximum Extension
Period permitted under Section 4.01.

resignation. Upon termination of the Trust Agreement or the removal or
resignation of the Delaware Trustee or the Property Trustee, as the case may be,

            8 1/8% JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEFERRABLE INTEREST DEBENTURE
                              DUE SEPTEMBER 1, 2031

Dated:  __________________                             [CUSIP__________________]

     Registered Holder:

     DPL INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the
State of Ohio (herein referred to as the "Company," which term includes any
successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value
received, hereby promises to pay to the Registered Holder named above, the
principal sum of                                             ($           ) on
September 1, 2031, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as
at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private
debt. The Company further promises to pay to the registered Holder hereof as
hereinafter provided (a) interest on said principal sum (subject to deferral as
set forth herein) at the rate per annum specified in the title of this debenture
(the "Debenture"), in like coin or currency, semiannually in arrears on the 1st
day of March and September of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date")
commencing March 1, 2002, from the Interest Payment Date next preceding the date
hereof to which interest has been paid or duly provided for (unless (i) no
interest has yet been paid or duly provided for on this Debenture, in which case
from August 31, 2001, or (ii) the date hereof is before an Interest Payment Date
but after the related Record Date (as defined below), in which case from such
following Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that if the Company shall
default in payment of the interest due on such following Interest Payment Date,
then from the next preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been
paid or duly provided for, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided
for, plus (b) Additional Interest, as defined in the Indenture, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, on any interest payment that is not made on the
applicable Interest Payment Date, which shall accrue at the rate per annum
specified in the title of this Debenture, compounded semiannually. The interest
so payable will, subject to certain exceptions provided in the Indenture
hereinafter referred to, be paid to the person in whose name this Debenture is
registered at the close of business on the Record Date next preceding such
Interest Payment Date. The Record Date shall be the Business Day next preceding
the Interest Payment Date, unless this Certificate is registered to a holder
other than the Property Trustee or a nominee of The Depository Trust Company, in
which case the Record Date will be the fifteenth day of the calendar month next
preceding the month in which the applicable Interest Payment

                                      A-2
<PAGE>

Date occurs or, if such fifteenth day of the month is not a Business Day, then
the Business Day next preceding such day. This Debenture may be presented for
payment of principal and interest at the principal corporate trust office of The
Bank of New York, as paying agent for the Company, maintained for that purpose
in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, State of New York; provided,
however, that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company (i)
by check mailed to such address of the person entitled thereto as the address
shall appear on the Register of the Debentures or (ii) by transfer to an account
maintained by the Person entitled thereto as specified in the Register; provided
that proper transfer instructions have been received by the Record Date.
Interest on the Debenture will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of
twelve 30-day months (and for any partial periods on the basis of the number of
days elapsed in a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months).

     So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company
shall have the right at any time during the term of this Debenture from time to
time to defer payment of interest on this Debenture, for up to ten consecutive
semiannual interest payment periods with respect to each deferral period (each
an "Extension Period"), during which Extension Periods the Company shall have
the right to make partial payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date;
provided, however, that no Extension Period shall end on a date other than an
Interest Payment Date or extend beyond September 1, 2031 or any earlier
redemption date. At the end of each Extension Period, the Company shall pay all
interest then accrued and unpaid (together with any Additional Interest thereon
to the extent permitted by applicable law, Special Interest, and Additional Tax
Sums, if applicable). During any such Extension Period, the Company shall not,
and shall cause any Subsidiary of the Company not to, (i) declare or pay any
dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a
liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Company's Capital Stock (which
includes Common Stock and preferred stock) or (ii) make any payment of principal
of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt
securities that rank on a parity with or junior to this Debenture or make any
guarantee payments with respect to any DPL Guarantee or other guarantee by the
Company that ranks on a parity with or junior to this Debenture (other than (a)
dividends or distributions payable in Common Stock, (b) any declaration of a
dividend in connection with the implementation of a Rights Plan, the issuance of
any Capital Stock or any class or series of preferred stock of the Company under
any Rights Plan or the redemption or repurchase of any rights distributed
pursuant to a Rights Plan, (c) payments under any DPL Guarantee relating to the
Preferred Securities issued by the DPL Trust holding this Debenture, and (d)
purchases of Common Stock related to the issuance of Common Stock or rights
under any of the Company's benefit plans for its directors, officers, employees,
consultants or advisors). Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period,
the Company may further extend such Extension Period; provided, however, that no
Extension Period shall exceed ten consecutive semiannual periods or extend
beyond September 1, 2031 or any earlier redemption date. At any time following
the termination of any Extension Period and the payment of all accrued and
unpaid interest (together with any Additional Interest, Special Interest and
Additional Tax Sums, if applicable) then due, the Company may elect to begin a
new Extension Period, subject to the above requirements. No interest shall be
due and payable during an Extension Period except at the end thereof. If the
Property Trustee is the only registered holder of the Debentures of this series,
the Company shall give written notice to the Property Trustee and the Trustee of
its election to begin or extend any Extension Period at least five Business Days
prior to the earlier of (i) the next succeeding date on which Distributions on
the Capital Securities issued by the

                                      A-3
<PAGE>

relevant DPL Trust would have been payable but for the election to begin or
extend such Extension Period or (ii) the date the Administrative Trustees are
required to give notice to any securities exchange or other applicable self-
regulatory organization or to holders of such Capital Securities of the record
date or the date such Distributions are payable, but in any event not less than
five Business Days prior to such record date. An Administrative Trustee shall
give notice of the Company's election to begin or extend an Extension Period to
the holders of such Capital Securities. If the Property Trustee is not the only
holder of the Debentures of this series at the time the Company elects to begin
or extend an Extension Period, the Company shall give the holders of the
Debentures of this series and the Trustee written notice of its election to
begin or extend such Extension Period at least ten Business Days prior to the
earlier of (i) the next succeeding Interest Payment Date or (ii) the date the
Company is required to give notice of the record or payment date of such
interest payment to any applicable self-regulatory organization or to holders of
the Debentures of this series.

     This Debenture is issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 31,
2001, between the Company, as issuer, and The Bank of New York, a New York
banking corporation, as trustee, as supplemented by a First Supplemental
Indenture dated as of August 31, 2001 (as further supplemented or amended from
time to time, the "Indenture"). Reference is made to the Indenture for a
description of the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties
and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders (the word
"Holder" or "Holders" meaning the registered holder or registered holders) of
the Debentures. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have
the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture. By acceptance of this
Debenture, the Holder hereof agrees to be bound by the provisions of the
Indenture.

     The Debentures of this series shall have an initial aggregate principal
amount of Three Hundred and Nine Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars
($309,300,000).

     The indebtedness of the Company evidenced by this Debenture, including the
principal hereof and interest hereon, is, to the extent and in the manner set
forth in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the
Company's obligations to Holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company and each
Holder of this Debenture, by acceptance hereof, agrees to and shall be bound by
such provisions of the Indenture and all other provisions of the Indenture.

         This Debenture shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose
until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been signed by or on
behalf of the Trustee under the Indenture.

                              REVERSE OF DEBENTURE

     As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, if an Event
of Default with respect to the payment of principal or interest on the
Debentures of this series or with respect to compliance with certain covenants
occurs and is continuing, then either the Trustee or the Holders of not less
than 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Debentures of each series
as to which such Event of Default has occurred may declare the principal amount
of all the Debentures of such series, together with any accrued interest
(including any Additional Interest, Special Interest and Additional Tax Sums),
to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to
the Trustee, if such notice is given by Holders). If the Debentures have been
issued to an DPL Trust, upon such an Event of Default, if the Trustee or the
Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Debentures
of this series fails to declare the principal of all the Debentures to be
immediately due and payable, the holders of at least 25% in aggregate
liquidation amount of the corresponding Capital Securities of such DPL Trust
then outstanding shall have such right by a notice in writing to the Company and
the Trustee, and upon any such declaration the principal amount of and the
accrued interest (including any Additional Interest, Special Interest and
Additional Tax Sums) on all the Debentures of such series shall become
immediately due and payable; provided that the payment of principal and interest
on the Debentures shall remain subordinated to the extent provided in the
Indenture.

     If an Event of Default with respect to certain covenants applicable to all
series of securities issued under the Indenture (collectively, the "Securities")
occurs and is continuing, then either the Trustee or the Holders of not less
than 25% in principal amount of all then outstanding Securities under the
Indenture (voting as a single class) may declare the principal amount of all
such Securities to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the
Company (and to the Trustee if such notice is given by Holders). If the
Securities of a series issued under the Indenture have been issued to an DPL
Trust, upon such an Event of Default, if the Trustee and the Holders of not less
than 25% in principal amount of all outstanding Securities of that series fail
to declare the principal of all the Securities of that series to be immediately
due and payable, the holders of at least 25% in aggregate liquidation amount of
the corresponding Capital Securities of such DPL Trust then outstanding shall
have such right by a notice in writing to the Company and the Trustee; and upon
any such declaration the principal amount of and the accrued interest (including
any Additional Interest and Special Interest) on all the Securities of that
series shall become immediately due and payable; provided that the payment of
principal and interest shall remain subordinated to the extent provided in the
Indenture.

     The Indenture provides that in certain events such declaration that
principal and accrued interest are due and payable, and the consequences of such
declaration, may be rescinded and annulled by the holders of at least a majority
in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding under the Indenture as to
which such acceleration of the payment of principal and interest has occurred,
voting as one class. In the case of Securities issued under the Indenture to one
or more DPL Trusts, should the Holders of such Securities fail to rescind and
annul such declaration and its consequences, the Holders of at least a majority
in aggregate liquidation amount of the corresponding Capital Securities of such
DPL Trusts shall have such right. The Indenture also provides that the Holders
of at least a majority in principal amount of all of the

                                     A-1-6
<PAGE>

Securities of all series then outstanding as to which an Event of Default has
occurred may, on behalf of all Holders of such Securities, waive any past
default under the Indenture other than (a) a default in the payment of the
principal of or interest on any of the Securities or (b) a default in respect of
a covenant or provision of the Indenture which under the terms of the Indenture
cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Holder of Securities
so affected. In the case of Securities of one or more series issued to one or
more DPL Trusts, the Indenture provides that the Holders of at least a majority
in aggregate liquidation amount of the corresponding Capital Securities issued
by such DPL Trusts shall also have the right to waive such defaults.

     The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee,
with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount
of the outstanding Securities of all affected series (voting as one class), to
execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions to or changing or
eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental
indenture or modifying the rights of the holders of the Securities of each such
series; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall (i) change
the fixed maturity of any Securities, or reduce the rate or extend the time of
payment of interest thereon or on any overdue principal amount, or reduce the
principal amount thereof, or reduce any amount payable upon any redemption
thereof, or make the principal thereof or any interest thereon or on any overdue
principal amount payable in any coin or currency other than that herein
prescribed, without the consent of the Holder of each security so affected, (ii)
reduce the percentage of Securities, the consent of the Holders of which is
required for any such supplemental indenture, without the consent of all Holders
of Securities then outstanding, (iii) modify certain provisions of the Indenture
relating to waiver of compliance with covenants, waiver of defaults or
modification of the Indenture without the consent of all Holders of Securities
then outstanding, except to increase the percentage of Holders required for such
waiver or modification, or (iv) modify the provisions with respect to the
subordination of outstanding Securities of any series in a manner adverse to the
Holders thereof, without the consent of the Holder of each security so affected;
provided, however, that, in the case of the Securities of a series issued to an
DPL Trust, so long as any of the corresponding series of Capital Securities
issued by such DPL Trust remains outstanding, (i) no such amendment shall be
made that adversely affects the holders of such Capital Securities or Preferred
Securities in any material respect, and no termination of the Indenture shall
occur, and no waiver of any Event of Default with respect to such series or
compliance with any covenant with respect to such series under the Indenture
shall be effective, without the prior consent of the holders of at least a
majority of the aggregate liquidation amount of such Capital Securities then
outstanding, unless and until the principal (and premium, if any) of the
Securities of such series and all accrued and unpaid interest (including any
Additional Interest) thereon shall have been paid in full and (ii) no amendment
shall be made to Section 6.05 of the Base Indenture (regarding the right of
Holders of Capital Securities to institute a suit directly against the Company)
that would impair the rights of the Holders of Capital Securities provided
therein without the prior consent of all Holders of Capital Securities then
outstanding, unless and until the principal (and premium, if any) of the
Securities of such series and all accrued and unpaid interest (including any
Additional Interest) thereon have been paid in full.

     As provided in and subject to the provisions in the Indenture, the Company
shall have the option to redeem the Debentures of this series at any time, in
whole but not in part, at the Optional Redemption Price. In addition, if a
Special Event shall occur and be continuing, the Company may redeem the
Debentures of this series at any time within 90 days after the

                                     A-1-7
<PAGE>

occurrence of that Special Event, in whole but not in part, at the Special Event
Redemption Price.

     Any consent or waiver by the Holder of this Debenture given as provided in
the Indenture (unless effectively revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be
conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Debenture and of any Debenture issued in exchange, registration of transfer, or
otherwise in lieu hereof irrespective of whether any notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon this Debenture or such other Debentures. No reference herein
to the Indenture and no provision of this Debenture or of the Indenture shall
alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and
unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Debenture, at the
places, at the respective times, at the rate and in the coin or currency herein
prescribed.

     If the Company does not comply with certain of its obligations under the
Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement, this Debenture shall bear additional
interest ("Special Interest") in addition to the interest provided for in
Section 2.05(a) of the First Supplemental Indenture to the Indenture.

     As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set
forth, the transfer of this Debenture may be registered on the Register of the
Debentures of this series upon surrender of this Debenture for registration of
transfer at the offices maintained by the Company or its agent for such purpose,
duly endorsed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing,
or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Company and the Securities registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing, but without payment of any charge other
than a sum sufficient to reimburse the Company for any tax or other governmental
charge incident thereto. Upon any such registration of transfer, a new Debenture
or Debentures of authorized denomination or denominations for the same aggregate
principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange herefor.

     Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Debenture,
the Company, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may deem
and treat the person in whose name this Debenture shall be registered upon the
Register of the Debentures of this series as the absolute owner of this
Debenture (whether or not this Debenture shall be overdue and notwithstanding
any notation of ownership or other writing hereon) for the purpose of receiving
payment of or on account of the principal hereof and, subject to the provisions
on the face hereof, interest due hereon and for all other purposes; and neither
the Company nor the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by any notice
to the contrary.

     No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or interest on
this Debenture, or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof, or
based on or in respect of the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto,
against any stockholder, officer, director or employee, as such, past, present
or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or
through the Company, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of
law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such
liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as a part of the consideration for
the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

Attention:  Corporate Trust Administration

Dear Sirs and Mesdames:

     We understand that the 8 1/8% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest
Debentures due September 1, 2031 (the "Debentures") of DPL Inc. ("DPL") are
being offered in a transaction not involving any public offering within the
United States within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), and that the Debentures have not been registered under the
Securities Act, and we agree, on our own behalf and on behalf of each account
for which we acquire any Debentures, that if, prior to the expiration of the
holding period applicable to sales of any Debenture under Rule 144(k) under the
Securities Act, we decide to offer, resell or otherwise transfer such Debenture,
such Debenture may be offered, resold or otherwise transferred only (i) to DPL
or a subsidiary thereof, (ii) pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Securities Act, (iii) inside the United States to a person who is a
"qualified institutional buyer" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities
Act) in compliance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, (iv) inside the
United States to an Institutional Accredited Investor (as defined below) that,
prior to such transfer, furnishes to The Bank of New York, as trustee ( the
"Trustee"), a signed letter in the form hereof and such other opinions and
certifications that such trustee or DPL may request, (v) outside the United
States in compliance with Rule 904 under the Securities Act or (vi) pursuant to
the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act
(if available) and (vii) in each case, in accordance with any applicable
securities laws of the States of the United States or any other applicable
jurisdiction and in accordance with the legend set forth on the Debentures. We
further agree to provide any person purchasing any of the Debentures from us a
notice advising such purchaser that resales of such securities are restricted as
stated herein. We understand that any Debentures will bear a legend reflecting
the substance of this paragraph.

     We confirm that:

               (i) we are an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule
          501(a)(1), (2) or (3) under the Securities Act or an entity in which
          all of the equity owners are accredited investors within the meaning
          of Rule 501(a)(1), (2) and (3) under the Securities Act (an
          "Institutional Accredited Investor");

               (ii) (A) any acquisition of Debentures by us will be for our own
          account or for the account of one or more other Institutional
          Accredited Investors or as fiduciary for the account of one or more
          trusts, each of which is an "accredited investor" within the meaning
          of Rule 501(a)(7) under the Securities Act and for

          each of which we exercise sole investment discretion or (B) we are a
          "bank," within the meaning of Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act,
          or a "savings and loan association" or other institution described in
          Section 3(a)(5)(A) of the Securities Act that is acquiring Debentures
          as fiduciary for the account of one or more institutions for which we
          exercise sole investment discretion;

               (iii) we have such knowledge and experience in financial and
          business matters that we are capable of evaluating the merits and
          risks of an investment in the Debentures;

               (iv) we are not acquiring Debentures with a view to resale or
          distribution thereof or with any present intention of offering or
          selling Debentures, except as permitted above; provided that the
          disposition of our property and property of any accounts for which we
          are acting as fiduciary shall remain at all times within our control;
          and

                  (v) we have had access to such financial and other information
         and have been afforded the opportunity to ask such questions of
         representatives of DPL and receive answers thereto, as we deem
         necessary in connection with our decision to acquire Debentures.

promptly in writing if any of our representations or warranties herein ceases to

United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and
accordingly the Transferor does hereby further certify that:

         The offer of the Private Debentures was not made to a person in the
United States;

         (A)   either:

                        (i) at the time the buy order was originated, the
               transferee was outside the United States or the Transferor and
               any person acting on its behalf reasonably believed that the
               transferee was outside the United States, or

                        (ii) the transaction was executed in, on or through
               the facilities of a designated offshore securities market and
               neither the Transferor nor any person acting on its behalf
               knows that the transaction was pre-arranged with a buyer in
               the United States;

         (B)   no directed selling efforts have been made in contravention of
               the requirements of Rule 904(b) under the Securities Act, as
               applicable;

         (C)   the transaction is not part of a plan or scheme to evade the
               registration requirements of the Securities Act; and

         (D)   we have advised the transferee of the transfer restrictions

and, except in the event (and to the extent) that the Depositor exercises its
right to defer the payment of interest on the Debentures pursuant to the
Indenture, shall be payable semiannually in arrears on March 1 and September 1
of each year, commencing on March 1, 2002. If any date on which a Distribution
is otherwise payable on the Trust Securities is not a Business Day, then the
payment of such Distribution shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a
Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such
delay), in each case, with the same force and effect as if made on such date
(each date on which Distributions are payable in accordance with this
SECTION 4.1(a), a "DISTRIBUTION DATE").

                   (b)  Assuming payments of interest on the Debentures are made
when due and assuming compliance by the Depositor and the Trust with their
obligations under the Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement (and before
giving effect to any Additional Distributions, Special Distributions and
Additional Tax Sums, if applicable), Distributions on the Trust Securities shall

                                       17
<PAGE>

be payable at a rate of 8 1/8% per annum of the Liquidation Amount of the Trust
Securities. The amount of Distributions payable for any full period shall be
computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The amount of
Distributions for any partial period shall be computed on the basis of the
number of days elapsed in a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The amount of
Distributions payable for any period shall include the Additional Distributions,
Special Distributions and Additional Tax Sums, if any.

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

                   (d)  Distributions on the Trust Securities with respect to a
Distribution Date shall be payable to the Holders thereof as they appear on the
Securities Register for the Trust Securities on the relevant record date, which
shall be the 15th day of the month immediately prior to the month in which the
relevant Distribution Date occurs or if such 15th day of the month is not a
Business Day, then the Business Day next preceding such day.

     Section 4.2.  Redemption. (a) On each Debenture Redemption Date and on the
                   ----------
stated maturity of the Debentures, the Trust will be required to redeem a Like
Amount of Trust Securities at the Redemption Price.

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

               (i)  the Redemption Date;

               (ii)  the Redemption Price, or if the Redemption Price cannot be
          calculated prior to the time the notice of redemption is required to
          be sent, the manner of calculation thereof;

               (iii)  the CUSIP number;

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

               (v)  that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become
          due and payable upon each such Trust Security to be redeemed and that
          Distributions thereon will cease to accumulate on and after said date.

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

                                       18
<PAGE>

                   (d)  If the Property Trustee gives a notice of redemption
in respect of any Capital Securities, then, by 10:00 a.m., New York City time,
on the Redemption Date, the Depositor shall deposit sufficient funds with the
Property Trustee to pay the Redemption Price. If such deposit has been made,
then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Redemption Date, subject to
SECTION 4.2(c), the Property Trustee will, with respect to Capital Securities
evidenced by one or more Global Capital Securities Certificates, irrevocably
deposit with the Clearing Agency for such Capital Securities funds sufficient to
pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give such Clearing Agency
irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to the
Holders thereof. With respect to Capital Securities evidenced by one or more
Definitive Capital Securities Certificates, the Property Trustee, subject to
SECTION 4.2(c), will irrevocably deposit with the Paying Agent funds sufficient
to pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give the Paying Agent
irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price with respect
to such Capital Securities to the Holders thereof upon surrender of their
Definitive Capital Securities Certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Distributions payable on or prior to the Redemption Date for any Trust
Securities called for redemption shall be payable to the Holders of such Trust
Securities as they appear on the Securities Register for the Trust Securities on
the relevant record dates for the related Distribution Dates. If notice of
redemption has been given and funds deposited as required, then upon the date of
such deposit, all rights of Securityholders holding Trust Securities so called
for redemption will cease, except the right of such Securityholders to receive
the Redemption Price and any Distribution payable on or prior to the Redemption
Date, but without interest, and such Trust Securities will cease to be
outstanding. In the event that any date on which any Redemption Price is payable
is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price payable on such date
will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any
interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), in each case, with the
same force and effect as if made on such date. In the event that payment of the
Redemption Price in respect of any Trust Securities called for redemption is
improperly withheld or refused and not paid either by the Trust or by the
Depositor pursuant to the Guarantee, Distributions on such Trust Securities will
continue to accumulate, at the then applicable distribution rate, from the
Redemption Date originally established by the Trust for such Trust Securities to
the date such Redemption Price is actually paid, in which case the actual
payment date will be the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating
the Redemption Price.

                   (e)  Payment of the Redemption Price on the Trust
Securities shall be made to the Holders thereof as they appear on the Securities
Register for the Trust Securities on a date to be established as the record date
for the distribution by the Property Trustee, which date shall be not more than
45 days nor less than 15 days prior to the relevant Redemption Date.

                   (f)  Subject to SECTION 4.3(a), if less than all the
Outstanding Trust Securities are to be redeemed on a Redemption Date, then the
aggregate Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities to be redeemed shall be
allocated on a pro rata basis (based on Liquidation Amounts) among the Common
Securities and the Capital Securities. The particular Capital Securities to be
redeemed shall be selected not less than 15 nor more than 60 days prior to the
Redemption Date by the Property Trustee from the Outstanding Capital Securities
not previously called for redemption, by such method (including, without
limitation, on a pro rata basis or by lot) as the Property Trustee shall deem
fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of
portions (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof)

                                       19
<PAGE>

of the Liquidation Amount of Capital Securities of a denomination larger than
$1,000; provided, however, that redemption must be pro rata on the basis of the
Outstanding Capital Securities held by each Holder unless the Property Trustee
advised by Opinion of Counsel determines that non-pro rata redemption will not
cause the Trust to fail or cease to be classified as a grantor trust for United
States federal income tax purposes or, if the Trust might fail or cease to be
classified as a grantor trust, will not cause the Trust to be classified as an
association taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax
purposes. In any such proration the Property Trustee may make such adjustments
so that any Capital Security to be redeemed shall, after such redemption, be in
an authorized denomination. The Property Trustee shall promptly notify the
Securities Registrar in writing of the Capital Securities selected for
redemption and, in the case of any Capital Securities selected for partial
redemption, the Liquidation Amount thereof to be redeemed. For all purposes of
this Trust Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions
relating to the redemption of Capital Securities shall relate, in the case of
any Capital Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion
of the Liquidation Amount of Capital Securities that has been or is to be
redeemed.

     Section 4.3.  Subordination of Common Securities. (a) Payment of
                   ----------------------------------
Distributions on, and the Redemption Price of, the Trust Securities, as
applicable, shall be made, subject to SECTION 4.2(f), pro rata among the Common
Securities and the Capital Securities based on the Liquidation Amount of the
Trust Securities; provided, however, that if on any Distribution Date or
Redemption Date any Event of Default resulting from a Debenture Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, no payment of any Distribution on, or the
Redemption Price of, any Common Security, and no other payment on account of the
redemption, liquidation or other acquisition of Common Securities, shall be made
unless payment in full in cash of all accumulated and unpaid Distributions on
all Outstanding Capital Securities for all Distribution periods terminating on
or prior thereto, or in the case of payment of the Redemption Price the full
amount of such Redemption Price on all Outstanding Capital Securities, has been
made or provided for, and all funds immediately available to the Property
Trustee shall first be applied to the payment in full in cash of all
Distributions on, or the Redemption Price of, Capital Securities then due and
payable.

                   (b)  In the case of the occurrence of any Event of Default
resulting from any Debenture Event of Default, the Holder of Common Securities
will be deemed to have waived any right to act with respect to any such Event of
Default under this Trust Agreement until the effect of all such Events of
Default with respect to the Capital Securities have been cured, waived or
otherwise eliminated. Until any such Event of Default under this Trust Agreement
with respect to the Capital Securities has been so cured, waived or otherwise
eliminated, the Property Trustee shall act solely on behalf of the Holders of
the Capital Securities and not the Holder of the Common Securities, and only the
Holders of the Capital Securities will have the right to direct the Property
Trustee to act on their behalf.

     Section 4.4.  Payment Procedures. Payments of Distributions in respect of
                   ------------------
the Capital Securities shall be made by check mailed to the address of the
Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Securities Register
or, if the Capital Securities are held by a Clearing Agency, such Distributions
shall be made in immediately available funds to the Clearing Agency, which shall
credit the relevant Persons' accounts at such Clearing Agency on the applicable
Distribution Dates. Payments in respect of the Common Securities shall be made

                                       20
<PAGE>

in such manner as shall be mutually agreed between the Property Trustee and the
Holder of the Common Securities.

     Section 4.5.  Tax Returns and Reports. The Administrative Trustees shall
                   -----------------------
prepare (or cause to be prepared), at the Depositor's expense, and file all
United States federal, state and local tax and information returns and reports
required to be filed by or in respect of the Trust. In this regard, the
Administrative Trustees shall (a) prepare and file (or cause to be prepared and
filed) the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Form required to be filed in
respect of the Trust in each taxable year of the Trust and (b) prepare and
furnish (or cause to be prepared and furnished) to each Securityholder the
appropriate Internal Revenue Service form required to be provided on such form.
The Administrative Trustees shall provide the Depositor and the Property Trustee
with a copy of all such returns and reports promptly after such filing or
furnishing. The Trustees shall comply with United States federal withholding and
backup withholding tax laws and information reporting requirements with respect
to any payments to Securityholders under the Trust Securities.

     Section 4.6.  Payment of Taxes, Duties, Etc. of the Trust. Upon receipt
                   -------------------------------------------
under the Debentures of Additional Tax Sums and the written direction of any of
the Administrative Trustees, the Property Trustee shall promptly pay, solely out
of monies on deposit pursuant to this Trust Agreement, any taxes, duties or
governmental charges of whatsoever nature (other than withholding taxes) imposed
on the Trust by the United States or any other taxing authority.

     Section 4.7.  Reduction for Payments under Indenture or Pursuant to Direct
                   ------------------------------------------------------------
Actions. Any amount payable hereunder to any Holder of Capital Securities shall
-------
be reduced by the amount of any corresponding payment such Holder (or an Owner
with respect to the Holder's Capital Securities) has directly received pursuant
to Section 6.05 of the Indenture or SECTION 5.14. Notwithstanding any such
payments, the Depositor shall remain obligated to pay the principal of or
interest on the Debentures and the Depositor shall be subrogated to the rights
of the Holder (and Owner) of such Capital Securities with respect to payments on
the Capital Securities to the extent of any payments made by the Depositor to
such Holder (and Owner) pursuant to either of such Sections.

Securities Certificates. A transferee of a Trust Securities Certificate shall
become a Securityholder, and shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the
obligations of a Securityholder hereunder, upon due registration of such Trust
Securities Certificate in such transferee's name pursuant to SECTIONS 5.4, 5.11
and 5.13.

Certificates. (a) The Depositor shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or
------------
agency maintained pursuant to SECTION 5.8, a register for the purpose of
registering Trust Securities Certificates and transfers and exchanges of Capital
Securities Certificates (the "SECURITIES REGISTER") in which the registrar
designated by the Depositor (the "SECURITIES REGISTRAR"), subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, shall provide for the registration
of Capital Securities Certificates and Common Securities Certificates and
registration of transfers and exchanges of Capital Securities Certificates,
subject to SECTION 5.10, SECTION 5.11 and as may otherwise be provided herein.
The Bank shall be the initial Securities Registrar. The Securities Registrar

Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or
exchange of Capital Securities Certificates.

     Section 5.5.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Securities
                   -----------------------------------------------------
Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Trust Securities Certificate is surrendered
------------
to the Securities Registrar, or if the Securities Registrar receives evidence to
its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust Securities
Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Securities Registrar and the
Administrative Trustees such security or indemnity as may be required by them to
save each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Trust
Securities Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the
Administrative Trustees, or any one of them, on behalf of the Trust shall
execute and make available for delivery, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Trust Securities Certificate, a new Trust
Securities Certificate of like class, tenor and denomination. In connection with
the issuance of any new Trust Securities Certificate under this Section, the
Administrative Trustees or the Securities Registrar may require the payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed
in connection therewith. Any duplicate Trust Securities Certificate issued
pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of an undivided
beneficial interest in the Trust Property, as if originally issued, whether or
not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Securities Certificate is found at any
time.

     Section 5.6.  Persons Deemed Securityholders. The Trustees or the
                   ------------------------------
Securities Registrar shall treat the Person in whose name any Trust Securities
Certificate is registered in the Securities Register as the owner of such Trust
Securities Certificate for the purpose of receiving Distributions and for all
other purposes whatsoever (subject to the record date provisions hereof), and
neither the Trustees nor the Securities Registrar shall be bound by any notice
to the contrary.

     Section 5.7.  Access to List of Securityholders' Names and Addresses. At
                   ------------------------------------------------------
any time when the Property Trustee is not also acting as the Securities
Registrar, the Depositor shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Property
Trustee promptly after receipt by an Administrative Trustee of a request
therefor from the Property Trustee in writing, a list, in such form as the
Property Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the
Securityholders as of the most recent record date. The rights of Securityholders
to communicate with other Securityholders with respect to their rights under
this Trust Agreement or under the Trust Securities, and the corresponding
obligations and rights of the Property Trustee, shall be as provided in the
Trust Indenture Act. Each Holder, by receiving and holding a Trust Securities
Certificate, and each Owner shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold the
Depositor, the Property Trustee or the Administrative Trustees accountable by
reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from
which such information was derived.

     Section 5.8.  Maintenance of Office or Agency for Transfers. The
                   ---------------------------------------------
Administrative Trustees shall maintain an office or offices or agency or
agencies where Capital Securities Certificates may be surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon
the Trustees in respect of the Trust Securities Certificates may be served. The
Administrative Trustees initially designate the Corporate Trust Office of the
Property Trustee, as the principal corporate trust office for such purposes. The

                                       24
<PAGE>

Administrative Trustees shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor and to
the Securityholders of any change in the location of the Securities Register or
any such office or agency.

     Section 5.9.  Appointment of Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall make
                   ---------------------------
Distributions to Securityholders from the Payment Account and shall report the
amounts of such Distributions to the Property Trustee and the Administrative
Trustees. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from
the Payment Account for the purpose of making the Distributions referred to
above. The Administrative Trustees may revoke such power and remove the Paying
Agent if such Trustees determine in their sole discretion that the Paying Agent
has failed to perform its obligations under this Trust Agreement in any material
respect. The Paying Agent shall initially be the Bank, and any co-paying agent
chosen by the Bank, and acceptable to the Administrative Trustees and the
Depositor. Any Person acting as Paying Agent shall be permitted to resign as
Paying Agent upon 30 days' written notice to the Administrative Trustees, the
Property Trustee and the Depositor. In the event that the Bank is no longer the
Paying Agent or a successor Paying Agent resigns or its authority to act
revoked, the Administrative Trustees shall appoint a successor that is
acceptable to the Property Trustee and the Depositor to act as Paying Agent
(which shall be a bank or trust company). The Administrative Trustees shall
cause such successor Paying Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by
the Administrative Trustees to execute and deliver to the Trustees an instrument
in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with
the Trustees that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional
Paying Agent will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the
Securityholders in trust for the benefit of the Securityholders entitled thereto
until such sums are paid to such Securityholders. The Paying Agent shall return
all unclaimed funds to the Property Trustee and upon removal of a Paying Agent
such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Property
Trustee. The provisions of SECTIONS 8.2, 8.4 and 8.6 herein shall apply to the
Bank also in its role as Paying Agent, for so long as the Bank acts as Paying
Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent appointed
hereunder. Any reference in this Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any
co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

     Section 5.10.  Ownership of Common Securities by Depositor. At the initial
                    -------------------------------------------
Closing Date, and at any subsequent Closing Dates, the Depositor shall acquire
and retain beneficial and record ownership of the Common Securities. To the
fullest extent permitted by law, other than a transfer in connection with a
consolidation, conversion or merger of the Depositor into another Person, or any
conveyance, transfer or lease by the Depositor of its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety to any Person, pursuant to Article Eleven of the
Indenture, any attempted transfer of the Common Securities shall be void. The
Administrative Trustees shall cause each Common Securities Certificate issued to
the Depositor to contain a legend stating "THIS CERTIFICATE IS NOT
TRANSFERABLE."

     Section 5.11. Book-Entry Interests. (a) So long as the Private Capital
                   --------------------
Securities are eligible for book-entry settlement in the Clearing Agency or
unless otherwise required by law, all Private Capital Securities that are so
eligible will be represented by one or more Global Capital Securities
Certificates deposited with the Clearing Agency or the Property Trustee as
custodian for the Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Trust. No Owner of a
beneficial interest in a Global Capital Securities Certificate will receive a
Definitive Capital Securities Certificate representing such Owner's beneficial
interest in the Private Capital Securities, except as provided in

                                       25
<PAGE>

SECTION 5.11(f) below; provided, however, that the Trust shall issue a

                   (b)  144A Global Securities shall initially be registered
in the name of a nominee of the Clearing Agency and Regulation S Global

                   (c)  Transfers of interests in Private Capital Securities

                    settlement with the Clearing Agency or unless otherwise
                    required by law, upon any transfer of a Definitive Capital
                    Securities Certificate to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A

                    ---------
                    make an endorsement on any 144A Global Security or any
                    Regulation S Global Security, as the case may be, to reflect
                    an increase in such Global Capital Security and the Property

                    Regulation S of a beneficial interest in a 144A Global
                    Security shall be reflected by an increase in the Regulation
                    S Global Security and a corresponding decrease in the 144A
                    Global Security, in each case by the Property Trustee on
                    behalf of the Trust making an endorsement on such Global
                    Capital Security, only upon receipt by the Property Trustee

                    delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the 144A
                    Global Security shall be reflected by an increase in the
                    144A Global Security and a corresponding decrease in the
                    Regulation S Global Security, in each case by the Property
                    Trustee on behalf of the Trust making an endorsement on such
                    Global Capital Security and, prior to the expiration of the
                    Distribution Compliance Period, only upon receipt by the
                    Property Trustee of a written certificate in the form of
                    Exhibit H (or such other certifications, legal opinions or
                    other information as the Depositor may reasonably require).

                   (e)  Any Global Capital Security may be endorsed with or
have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or changes not
inconsistent with the provisions of this Trust Agreement as may be required by
the Clearing Agency, by any national securities exchange or by the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or as may be required for the Private
Capital Securities to be tradeable on any other market developed for trading of
securities pursuant to Rule 144A or required to comply with any applicable law
or any regulation thereunder or with the rules and regulations of any securities
exchange upon which the Capital Securities may be listed or traded or to conform
with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or
restrictions to which any particular Capital Securities are subject.

                   (f)  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Trust
Agreement (other than the provisions set forth in this SECTION 5.11(f)), a
Global Capital Security may not be exchanged in whole or in part for Definitive
Capital Securities Certificates, and no transfer of a Global Capital Security
may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Clearing Agency or a
nominee thereof unless (i) such Clearing Agency (A) has notified the Property
Trustee and the Depositor that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Clearing
Agency for such Global Capital Security or (B) has ceased to be a clearing
agency registered as such under the Exchange Act and no successor Clearing
Agency has been appointed by the Depositor within 90 days after its receipt of
such notice or its becoming aware of such cessation of registration, (ii) there
has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default, or any event that after
notice or lapse of time or both would be an Event of Default under the Trust
Agreement, with respect to such Capital Security or (iii) the Depositor in its
discretion instructs the Property Trustee to exchange such Global Capital
Security for Definitive Capital Securities Certificates (in which case such
exchange shall be effected by the Property Trustee).

                   (g)  Unless and until Definitive Capital Securities
Certificates have been issued to Owners pursuant to SECTION 5.13, the following
provisions of this SECTION 5.11(g) shall be in full force and effect:

               (i) the Securities Registrar and the Trustees shall be entitled
          to deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes of this Trust
          Agreement relating to the Global Capital Securities (including the
          payment of the Liquidation Amount of and Distributions on the Capital
          Securities evidenced by Global Capital Securities Certificates and the
          giving of instructions or directions to Owners of Capital Securities
          evidenced by Global Capital Securities) as the sole Holder of Capital
          Securities evidenced by Global Capital Securities and shall have no
          obligations to the Owners thereof; and

               (ii) the rights of the Owners of the Global Capital Securities
          shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be
          limited to those established by law and agreements between such Owners
          and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants.
          Pursuant to the Certificate Depository Agreement, unless and until
          Definitive Capital Securities Certificates are issued pursuant to this
          SECTION 5.11 or SECTION 5.13, the initial Clearing Agency will make
          book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and
          receive and transmit payments on the Capital Securities to such
          Clearing Agency Participants.

                   (h)  The Administrative Trustees shall inform the Property
Trustee in writing of the effective date of any registration statement
registering the Exchange Capital Securities under the Securities Act. Upon the
receipt of a certificate from the Administrative Trustees, the Property Trustee
will take such actions as shall be necessary to effectuate the exchange of any
of the Private Capital Securities for Exchange Capital Securities, including but
not limited to the issuance of Exchange Capital Securities in the form requested
by the Administrative Trustees, the entry of decreases in the Regulation S
Global Security and the 144A Global Security or, if applicable, the cancellation
of Definitive Capital Securities Certificates.

                   (i)  Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Capital
Securities that is transferred to an Owner who takes delivery in the form of an
interest in the other Global Capital Securities will, upon transfer, cease to be
an interest in the former Global Capital Security and will become an interest in
the latter Global Capital Security and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject
to all transfer restrictions and other procedures applicable to beneficial
interests in such latter Global Capital Security for so long as it remains such
an interest.

     Section 5.12. Notices to Clearing Agency. To the extent that a notice or
                   --------------------------
other communication to the Owners is required under this Trust Agreement, unless
and until Definitive Capital Securities Certificates shall have been issued to
Owners pursuant to SECTION 5.13, the Trustees shall give all such notices and
communications specified herein to be given to Owners to the Clearing Agency,
and shall have no obligations to the Owners.

     Section 5.13. Procedures for Issuance of Definitive Capital Securities
                   --------------------------------------------------------
Certificates. Upon surrender to the Securities Registrar of the typewritten
------------
Capital Securities Certificate or Certificates representing the Global Capital
Securities Certificates by the Clearing Agency upon occurrence of any of the
events described in SECTION 5.11(f), accompanied by registration instructions,

                                       28
<PAGE>

the Administrative Trustees, or any one of them, shall execute and the
Securities Registrar shall register the Definitive Capital Securities
Certificates in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. Neither
the Securities Registrar nor the Trustees shall be liable for any delay in
delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be
protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive
Capital Securities Certificates, the Trustees shall recognize the Holders of the
Definitive Capital Securities Certificates as Securityholders. The Definitive
Capital Securities Certificates shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or
may be produced in any other manner as is reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Trustees, as evidenced by the execution thereof by the
Administrative Trustees or any one of them.

     Section 5.14. Rights of Securityholders. (a) The legal title to the Trust
                   -------------------------
Property is vested exclusively in the Property Trustee (in its capacity as such)
in accordance with SECTION 2.9, and the Securityholders shall not have any right
or title therein other than the undivided beneficial interest in the assets of
the Trust conferred by their Trust Securities and they shall have no right to
call for any partition or division of property, profits or rights of the Trust
except as described below. The Trust Securities shall be personal property
giving only the rights specifically set forth therein and in this Trust
Agreement. The Trust Securities shall have no preemptive or similar rights. When
issued and delivered to Securityholders against payment of the purchase price
therefor, the Capital Securities will be fully paid and nonassessable undivided
beneficial interests in the Trust Property. The Holders of the Capital
Securities, in their capacities as such, shall be entitled to the same
limitation of personal liability extended to stockholders of private
corporations for profit organized under the General Corporation Law of the State
of Delaware.

                   (b)  For so long as any Capital Securities remain
Outstanding, if, upon a Debenture Event of Default, the Debenture Trustee fails
or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding
Debentures fail to declare the principal of all of the Debentures to be
immediately due and payable, the Holders of at least 25% in Liquidation Amount
of the Capital Securities then Outstanding shall have such right by a notice in
writing to the Depositor and the Debenture Trustee; and upon any such
declaration such principal amount of and the accrued interest on all of the
Debentures shall become immediately due and payable; provided that the payment
of principal and interest on such Debentures shall remain subordinated to the
extent provided in the Indenture. At any time after such a declaration of
acceleration with respect to the Debentures has been made and before a judgment
or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Debenture
Trustee as provided in the Indenture, the Holders of a majority in Liquidation
Amount of the Capital Securities, by written notice to the Property Trustee, the
Depositor and the Debenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and
its consequences if:

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

                    (A) all overdue installments of interest (including any
               Additional Interest, as defined in the Indenture) on all of the
               Debentures,

                                       29
<PAGE>

                    (B) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any
               Debentures that have become due otherwise than by such
               declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate
               borne by the Debentures, and

                    (C) ___ all sums paid or advanced by the Debenture Trustee
               under the Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses,
               disbursements and advances of the Debenture Trustee and the
               Property Trustee, their agents and counsel and all amounts
               payable to the Debenture Trustee under Section 7.06 of the
               Indenture; and

               (ii) all Debenture Events of Default, other than the non-payment
          of the principal of the Debentures that has become due solely by such
          acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Article Six of
          the Indenture.

     The holders of a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Capital
Securities may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Capital Securities, waive
any past default under the Indenture, except a default in the payment of
principal or interest (unless such default has been cured and a sum sufficient
to pay all matured installments of interest and principal due otherwise than by
acceleration has been deposited with the Debenture Trustee) or a default in
respect of a covenant or provision that under the Indenture cannot be modified
or amended without the consent of the holder of each outstanding Debenture. No
such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

     Upon receipt by the Property Trustee of written notice declaring such an
acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof, by Holders of the Capital
Securities all or part of which are represented by Global Capital Securities
Certificates, a record date shall be established for determining Holders of
Outstanding Capital Securities entitled to join in such notice, which record
date shall be at the close of business on the day the Property Trustee receives
such notice. The Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies,
and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such notice, whether or not
such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, that, unless such
declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be,
has become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having joined in such
notice prior to the day that is 90 days after such record date, such notice of
declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be,
shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be canceled and of
no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder, or a proxy
of a Holder, from giving, after expiration of such 90-day period, a new written
notice of declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof, as
the case may be, that is identical to a written notice that has been canceled
pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record
date shall be established pursuant to the provisions of this SECTION 5.14(b).

                   (c)  For so long as any Capital Securities remain
Outstanding, to the fullest extent permitted by law and subject to the terms of
this Trust Agreement and the Indenture, upon a Debenture Event of Default
specified in Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(b) of the Indenture, any Holder of Capital
Securities shall have the right to institute a proceeding directly against the
Depositor, pursuant to Article Six of the Indenture, for enforcement of payment
to such Holder of the principal amount of or interest on Debentures having a

                                       30
<PAGE>

principal amount equal to the Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities of
such Holder (a "DIRECT ACTION"). Except as set forth in SECTION 5.14(b) and this
SECTION 5.14(c), the Holders of Capital Securities shall have no right to
exercise directly any right or remedy available to the holders of, or in respect
of, the Debentures.

     The Holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities
at the time Outstanding shall have the right to direct the time, method, and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Property
Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Property Trustee with
respect to such Capital Securities; provided, however, that the Property Trustee
shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Property
Trustee being advised by an Opinion of Counsel determines that the action so
directed may not lawfully be taken, or if the Property Trustee in good faith
determines that the proceedings so directed would be illegal or involve it in
personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Capital
Securities not parties to such direction, and provided further that nothing in
the Trust Agreement shall impair the right of the Property Trustee to take any
action deemed proper by the Property Trustee and which is not inconsistent with
such direction by such Securityholders.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                    ACTS OF SECURITYHOLDERS; MEETINGS; VOTING

     Section 6.1.  Limitations on Voting Rights. (a) Except as provided in this
                   ----------------------------
Section, in SECTIONS 5.14, 8.10 and 10.2 and in the Indenture and as otherwise
required by law, no Holder of Capital Securities shall have any right to vote or
in any manner otherwise control the administration, operation and management of
the Trust or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein
set forth, or contained in the terms of the Trust Securities Certificates, be
construed so as to constitute the Securityholders from time to time as partners
or members of an association.

                   (b)  So long as any Debentures are held by the Property
Trustee, the Trustees shall not (i) direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Debenture Trustee, or
executing any trust or power conferred on the Debenture Trustee with respect to
such Debentures, (ii) waive any past default that is waivable under the
Indenture, (iii) exercise any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the
principal of all the Debentures shall be due and payable or (iv) consent to any
amendment, modification or termination of the Indenture or the Debentures, where
the consent of the holders of Debentures shall be required, without, in each
case, obtaining the prior approval of the Holders of at least a majority in
Liquidation Amount of all Outstanding Capital Securities; provided, however,
that where a consent under the Indenture would require the consent of each
holder of Debentures affected thereby, no such consent shall be given by the
Property Trustee without the prior written consent of each Holder of Capital
Securities. The Trustees shall not revoke any action previously authorized or
approved by a vote of the Holders of Capital Securities, except by a subsequent
vote of the Holders of Capital Securities. Subject to SECTION 8.3, the Property
Trustee shall notify all Holders of the Capital Securities of any notice of
default received from the Debenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures. In
addition to obtaining the foregoing approvals of the Holders of the Capital
Securities, prior to taking any of the foregoing actions, the Trustees shall, at

                                       31

the expense of the Depositor, obtain an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that
such action shall not cause the Trust to fail or cease to be classified as a
grantor trust for United States Federal income tax purposes.

                   (c)  If any proposed amendment to this Trust Agreement
provides for, or the Trustees otherwise propose to effect, (i) any action that
would adversely affect in any material respect the powers, preferences or
special rights of the Capital Securities, whether by way of amendment to this
Trust Agreement or otherwise, or (ii) the dissolution, winding-up or termination
of the Trust, other than pursuant to the terms of this Trust Agreement, then the
Holders of Outstanding Capital Securities as a class will be entitled to vote on
such amendment or proposal and such amendment or proposal shall not be effective
except with the approval of the Holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of
the Outstanding Capital Securities, except as otherwise provided in
SECTION 10.2(c). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, no
amendment to this Trust Agreement may be made if, as a result of such amendment,
it would cause the Trust to fail or cease to be classified as a grantor trust
for United States Federal income tax purposes.

     Section 6.2.  Notice of Meetings. Notice of all meetings of the Capital
                   ------------------

Capital Securities of record present, in person or by proxy, holding more than a
majority of the Capital Securities (based upon their Liquidation Amount) held by
the Holders of Capital Securities of record present, either in person or by
proxy, at such meeting shall constitute the action of the Holders of Capital
Securities, unless this Trust Agreement requires a greater number of affirmative
votes.

     Section 6.4.  Voting Rights. Securityholders shall be entitled to one vote

proxies may be solicited in the name of the Property Trustee or one or more
officers of the Property Trustee. Only Securityholders of record shall be
entitled to vote. When Trust Securities are held jointly by several Persons, any
one of them may vote at any meeting in person or by proxy in respect of such
Trust Securities, but if more than one of them shall be present at such meeting

disagree as to any vote to be cast, such vote shall not be received in respect
of such Trust Securities. A proxy purporting to be executed by or on behalf of a
Securityholder shall be deemed valid unless challenged at or prior to its
exercise, and the burden of proving invalidity shall rest on the challenger. No
proxy shall be valid more than three years after its date of execution.

     Section 6.6.  Securityholder Action by Written Consent. Any action that may
                   ----------------------------------------
be taken by Securityholders at a meeting may be taken without a meeting if
Securityholders holding a majority of all Outstanding Trust Securities (based
upon their Liquidation Amount) entitled to vote in respect of such action (or
such larger proportion thereof as shall be required by any express provision of
this Trust Agreement) consent to the action in writing.

     Section 6.7.  Record Date for Voting and Other Purposes. For the purposes
                   -----------------------------------------
of determining the Securityholders who are entitled to notice of and to vote at
any meeting or by written consent, or to participate in any Distribution on the
Trust Securities in respect of which a record date is not otherwise provided for
in this Trust Agreement, or for the purpose of any other action, the
Administrative Trustees may from time to time fix a date, not more than 90 days
prior to the date of any meeting of Securityholders or the payment of a
Distribution or other action, as the case may be, as a record date for the
determination of the identity of the Securityholders of record for such
purposes.

     Section 6.8.  Acts of Securityholders. Any request, demand, authorization,
                   -----------------------
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this
Trust Agreement to be given, made or taken by Securityholders may be embodied in
and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed
by such Securityholders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and,
except as otherwise expressly provided herein, such action shall become
effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to an Administrative
Trustee. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and
evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "ACT" of the
Securityholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of
any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be
sufficient for any purpose of this Trust Agreement and (subject to SECTION 8.2)
conclusive in favor of the Trustees, if made in the manner provided in this
Section.

     The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or
writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a
certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take
acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument
or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by
a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such

                                       33
<PAGE>

certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his
authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing,
or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any
other manner that any Trustee receiving the same deems sufficient. The ownership
of Capital Securities shall be proved by the Securities Register.

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

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

     If any dispute arises between the Securityholders and the Administrative
Trustees or among such Securityholders or Trustees with respect to the
authenticity, validity or binding nature of any request, demand, authorization,
direction, consent, waiver or other Act of such Securityholder or Trustee under
this Article VI, then the determination of such matter by the Property Trustee
shall be conclusive with respect to such matter.

     Section 6.9.  Inspection of Records. Upon reasonable notice to the
                   ---------------------
Administrative Trustees and the Property Trustee, the records of the Trust shall
be open to inspection by Securityholders during normal business hours for any
purpose reasonably related to such Securityholder's interest as a
Securityholder.

                                  THE TRUSTEES
                                  ------------

     Section 8.1.  Corporate Property Trustee Required; Eligibility of Trustees.
                   ------------------------------------------------------------
(a) There shall at all times be a Property Trustee hereunder with respect to the
Trust Securities. The Property Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible
pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and has a combined capital
and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If any such Person publishes reports of
condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of its
supervising or examining authority, then, for the purposes of this
SECTION 8.1(a), the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed
to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of
condition so published. If at any time the Property Trustee with respect to the
Trust Securities ceases to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect
hereinafter specified in this Article.

                   (b)  There shall at all times be one or more Administrative
Trustees hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities. Each Administrative
Trustee shall be either a natural person who is at least 21 years of age or a
legal entity that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind that
entity. No natural person shall be eligible to act as an Administrative Trustee
hereunder unless such person is an employee or officer of, or affiliated with,
the Depositor.

                   (c)  There shall at all times be a Delaware Trustee with
respect to the Trust Securities. The Delaware Trustee shall either be (i) a
natural person who is at least 21 years of age and a resident of the State of
Delaware or (ii) a legal entity with its principal place of business in the
State of Delaware and that otherwise meets the requirements of applicable
Delaware law that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind such
entity.

     Section 8.2.  Certain Duties and Responsibilities. (a) The duties and
                   -----------------------------------
responsibilities of the Trustees shall be restricted to those set forth in the
express provisions of this Trust Agreement and, in the case of the Property
Trustee, as provided in the Trust Indenture Act in respect of an indenture

                                       36
<PAGE>

trustee under that Act, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read
into this Trust Agreement against the Property Trustee. For purposes of
Sections 315(a) and 315(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, the term "default" is
hereby an "Event of Default" which has occurred and is continuing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Trust Agreement shall
require any of the Trustees to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur
any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in
the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds
for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such
risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. Notwithstanding anything
contained in this Trust Agreement to the contrary, the duties and
responsibilities of the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement shall
subject to the protections, exculpations and limitations on liability afforded
to the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement, the Delaware Business Trust
Act, to the extent applicable, Rule 3a-7 under the Investment Company Act or any
successor rule thereunder, and to an indenture trustee under the Trust Indenture
Act. For the purposes of Section 315(d)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act, the term
"responsible officer" is hereby defined as "Responsible Officer". Whether or not
therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Trust Agreement relating
to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the
Trustees shall be subject to the provisions of this Section. Nothing in this
Trust Agreement shall be construed to release an Administrative Trustee from
liability for his or her or its own negligence or willful misconduct. To the
extent that, at law or in equity, an Administrative Trustee or the Delaware
Trustee has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto
to the Trust, to any other Trustee or to the Securityholders, such
Administrative Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall not be liable to the Trust,
to any other Trustee or to any Securityholder for such Trustee's good faith
reliance on the provisions of this Trust Agreement. The provisions of this Trust
Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the
Administrative Trustees otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by
the Depositor, the Trustees and the Securityholders to replace such other duties
and liabilities of the Administrative Trustees and the Delaware Trustee.

                   (b)  All payments made by the Property Trustee or a Paying
Agent in respect of the Trust Securities shall be made only from the revenue and
proceeds from the Trust Property and only to the extent that there is sufficient
revenue or proceeds from the Trust Property to enable the Property Trustee or a
Paying Agent to make payments in accordance with the terms hereof. Each
Securityholder, by its acceptance of a Trust Security, agrees that it will look
solely to the revenue and proceeds from the Trust Property to the extent legally
available for distribution to it as herein provided and that the Trustees are
not personally liable to it for any amount distributable in respect of any Trust
Security or for any other liability in respect of any Trust Security. This
Section 8.2(b) does not limit the liability of the Trustees expressly set forth
elsewhere in this Trust Agreement or, in the case of the Property Trustee, in
the Trust Indenture Act.

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

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

                    (1)  the Property Trustee undertakes to perform such duties
                         and only such duties as are specifically set forth in

                                       37
<PAGE>

                         this Trust Agreement and no implied covenants or
                         obligations shall be read into this Trust Agreement
                         against the Property Trustee; and

                    (2)  in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Property
                         Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
                         statements and the correctness of the opinions
                         expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions
                         furnished to the Property Trustee and conforming to the
                         requirements of this Trust Agreement; but in the case
                         of any such certificates or opinions which by any
                         provision hereof are specifically required to be
                         furnished to the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee
                         shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine
                         whether or not they conform to the requirements of this
                         Trust Agreement.

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

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

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

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

               (vi) Property Trustee shall not be liable for any interest on any
          money received by it except as it may otherwise agree in writing with
          the Depositor; and money held by the Property Trustee need not be
          segregated from other funds held by it except in relation to the
          Payment Account maintained by the Property Trustee pursuant to
          Section 3.1 and except to the extent otherwise required by law; and

               (vii) Property Trustee shall not be responsible for monitoring
          the compliance by the Administrative Trustees or the Depositor with

                                       38
<PAGE>

          their respective duties under this Trust Agreement, nor shall the
          Property Trustee be liable for the default or misconduct of the
          Administrative Trustees or the Depositor.

     Section 8.3.  Certain Notices. Within 90 days after the occurrence of any
                   ---------------
Event of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Property Trustee
assigned to its Corporate Trust Office, the Property Trustee shall transmit, in
the manner and to the extent provided in SECTION 10.8, notice of such Event of
Default to the Securityholders, the Administrative Trustees and the Depositor,
unless such Event of Default has been cured or waived.

     Within five Business Days after the receipt of notice of the Depositor's
exercise of its right to defer the payment of interest on the Debentures
pursuant to the Indenture, the Administrative Trustee shall transmit, in the
manner and to the extent provided in Section 10.8, notice of such exercise to
the Securityholders and the Property Trustee, unless such exercise has been
revoked.

     Section 8.4.  Certain Rights of Property Trustee. Subject to the provisions
                   ----------------------------------
of SECTION 8.2:

                   (a)  the Property Trustee may conclusively rely and shall
be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution,
opinion, certificate, written representation of a Holder or transferee,
certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument,

reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or
presented by the proper party or parties;

                   (b)  if (i) in performing its duties under this Trust
Agreement the Property Trustee is required to decide between alternative courses
of action or (ii) in construing any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement
the Property Trustee finds the same ambiguous or inconsistent with any other
provisions contained herein or (iii) the Property Trustee is unsure of the
application of any provision of this Trust Agreement, then, except as to any
matter as to which the Holders of Capital Securities are entitled to vote under
the terms of this Trust Agreement, the Property Trustee shall deliver a notice
to the Depositor requesting written instructions of the Depositor as to the
course of action to be taken and the Property Trustee shall take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, as the Property Trustee is instructed in
writing to take, or to refrain from taking, by the Depositor; provided, however,
that if the Property Trustee does not receive such instructions of the Depositor
within ten Business Days after it has delivered such notice, or such reasonably
shorter period of time set forth in such notice (which to the extent practicable
shall not be less than two Business Days), it may, but shall be under no duty
to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Trust
Agreement as it deems advisable and in the best interests of the
Securityholders, in which event the Property Trustee shall have no liability
except for its own bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct;

                   (c)  any direction or act of the Depositor or the

<PAGE>

                   (d)  whenever in the administration of this Trust
Agreement, the Property Trustee deems it desirable that a matter be proved or
established before taking, suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder,
the Property Trustee (unless other evidence is herein specifically prescribed)
may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, request and conclusively rely upon
an Officers' Certificate which, upon receipt of such request, shall be promptly
delivered by the Depositor or the Administrative Trustees;

                   (e)  the Property Trustee shall have no duty to see to any
recording, filing or registration of any instrument (including any financing or
continuation statement or any filing under tax or securities laws) or any
re-recording, refiling or reregistration thereof;

                   (f)  the Property Trustee may consult with counsel of its
selection (which counsel may be counsel to the Depositor or any of its

such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect
of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it hereunder in good
faith and in reliance thereon; the Property Trustee shall have the right at any
time to seek instructions concerning the administration of the Trust or
interpretation of this Trust Agreement from any court of competent jurisdiction;

                   (g)  the Property Trustee shall be under no obligation to
exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement at the
request or direction of any of the Securityholders pursuant to this Trust
Agreement, unless such Securityholders have offered to the Property Trustee such
adequate security or indemnity against the costs, expenses (including attorney's
fees and expenses) and liabilities that might be incurred by it in complying
with such request or direction, including such reasonable advances as may be
requested by the Property Trustee;

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

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

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

Agreement, the Property Trustee shall not be under any obligation to take any
action that is discretionary under the provisions of this Trust Agreement;

                   (l)  the Property Trustee shall not be charged with
knowledge of an Event of Default unless either (i) a Responsible Officer of the
Property Trustee assigned to its Corporate Trust Department (or any successor
department or division of the Property Trustee) located at the Corporate Trust
Office shall have actual knowledge of such Event of Default or (ii) the Property
Trustee receives at the Corporate Trust Office written notice of such event from
the Depositor, any other Trustee or Securityholders holding a majority or more
of Capital Securities (based upon Liquidation Amount) and such notice references
the Trust Securities and this Trust Agreement;

                   (m)  no provision of this Trust Agreement shall be deemed
to impose any duty or obligation on the Property Trustee to perform any act or
acts or exercise any right, power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on
it, in any jurisdiction in which it is illegal, or in which the Property Trustee
is unqualified or incompetent in accordance with applicable law, to perform any
such act or acts, or to exercise any such right, power, duty or obligation;

                   (n)  no permissive or discretionary power or authority
available to the Property Trustee shall be construed to be a duty to act in
accordance with such power and authority;

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

                   (p)  the Property Trustee shall have no duty to see to any
recording, filing or registration of any instrument (including any financing or
continuation statement or any tax or securities) (or any re-recording, refiling
or registration thereof);

                   (q)  the Property Trustee shall have the right at any time
to seek instructions concerning the administration of this Trust Agreement from
any court of competent jurisdiction;

                   (r)  whenever in the administration of this Trust Agreement
the Property Trustee shall deem it desirable to receive instructions with
respect to enforcing any remedies or right or taking any other action hereunder,
the Property Trustee (i) may request instructions from the Holders of the
Trust Securities, which instructions may only be given by the Holders of the
same Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities as would be entitled to direct the
Property Trustee under the terms of this Trust Agreement in respect of such
remedies, right or action, (ii) may refrain from enforcing such remedy or right
or taking such other action until such instructions are received, and
(iii) shall be fully protected in acting in accordance with such instructions;

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

                   (t)  the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any
action taken, suffered, or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and
reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or
powers conferred upon by this Trust Agreement; and

                   (u)  the Property Trustee may request that the Depositor
deliver an Officers' Certificate setting forth the names of officers authorized
at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Trust Agreement, which
Officers' Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an
Officers' Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any
such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

     Section 8.5.  Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Trust Securities.
                   ------------------------------------------------------------
The recitals contained herein and in the Trust Securities Certificates shall be
taken as the statements of the Trust, and the Trustees do not assume any
responsibility for their correctness.

     The Trustees make no representations and shall have no duty or liability
for, or with respect to, the validity or sufficiency of this Trust Agreement or
of the Trust Securities, the value, genuineness, existence or sufficiency of the
Trust Property or the payment of any taxes or assessments levied thereon or in
connection therewith.

     The Trustees shall not be accountable for the use or application by the
Depositor of the proceeds of the Debentures.

     Section 8.6.  May Hold Securities. Any Trustee or any other agent of any
                   -------------------
Trustee or the Trust, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the
owner or pledgee of Trust Securities and, subject to SECTIONS 8.8 and 8.13 and
except as provided in the definition of the term "OUTSTANDING" in Article I, may
otherwise deal with the Trust with the same rights it would have if it were not
a Trustee or such other agent.

     Section 8.7.  Compensation; Indemnity; Fees. The Depositor agrees:
                   -----------------------------

                   (a)  to pay to the Trustees from time to time such
compensation as shall be agreed in writing between the Depositor and the
respective Trustees for all services rendered by them hereunder (which
compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the
compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

                   (b)  except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to
reimburse the Trustees upon request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements
and advances incurred or made by the Trustees in accordance with any provision
of this Trust Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses
and disbursements of their agents and counsel), except any such expense,
disbursement or advance as may be attributable to their willful misconduct or
negligence;

                   (c)  to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to
indemnify and hold harmless (i) each Trustee, (ii) any Affiliate of any Trustee,
(iii) any officer, director, shareholder, employee, representative or agent of
any Trustee, and (iv) any employee or agent of the Trust or its Affiliates
(referred to herein as an "INDEMNIFIED PERSON") from and against any loss,
damage, liability, tax, penalty, expense or claim of any kind or nature
whatsoever incurred by such Indemnified Person by reason of the creation,

                                       42
<PAGE>

operation or termination of the Trust or any act or omission performed or
omitted by such Indemnified Person on behalf of the Trust and in a manner such
Indemnified Person reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority
conferred on such Indemnified Person by this Trust Agreement, except that no
Indemnified Person shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss,
damage or claim incurred by such Indemnified Person by reason of negligence or
willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions; and

                   (d)  to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to
advance expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnified
Person in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding which expenses
shall be advanced, from time to time, prior to the final disposition of such
claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Depositor of (i) a
written affirmation by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person of its, his or her
good faith belief that it he or she has met the standard of conduct set forth in
this Section 8.7 and (ii) an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnified
Person to repay such amount if it becomes determined that the Indemnified Person
is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in the preceding subsection.

     "Trustee" for the purpose of this Section shall include any predecessor
Trustee; provided, however, that the negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith
of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect the rights of any other Trustee
hereunder.

     In addition to the rights provided to each Trustee herein and not by way of
prejudice, when a Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with
an Event of Default resulting from a Bankruptcy Event with respect to the Trust,
the expenses (including reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the
compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or
other similar law.

     The provisions of this SECTION 8.7 shall survive the termination of this
Trust Agreement and the resignation or removal of any Trustee.

     As security for the performance of the obligations of the Depositor under
this Section, each of the Trustees shall have a lien prior to the Trust
Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by such Trustee as
such, except funds held in trust for the payment of Distributions on, or any
other payments in respect of, particular Trust Securities.

     The Depositor and any Trustee (in the case of the Property Trustee, subject
to SECTION 8.8 hereof) may engage in or possess an interest in other business
ventures of any nature or description, independently or with others, similar or
dissimilar to the business of the Trust, and the Trust and the Holders of Trust
Securities shall have no rights by virtue of this Trust Agreement in and to such
independent ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit
of any such venture, even if competitive with the business of the Trust, shall
not be deemed wrongful or improper. Neither the Depositor, nor any Trustee,
shall be obligated to present any particular investment or other opportunity to
the Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the
Trust, could be taken by the Trust, and the Depositor or any Trustee shall have
the right to take for its own account (individually or as a partner or
fiduciary) or to recommend to others any such particular investment or other
opportunity. Any Trustee may engage or be interested in any financial or other

                                       43
<PAGE>

transaction with the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor, or may act as
depository for, trustee or agent for, or act on any committee or body of holders
of, securities or other obligations of the Depositor or its Affiliates.

     Section 8.8.  Conflicting Interests. If the Property Trustee has or
                   ---------------------
acquires a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act,
the Property Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the
extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the
Trust Indenture Act and this Trust Agreement. The Indenture and the Guarantee
Agreement shall be deemed to be specifically described in this Trust Agreement
for the purposes of clause (i) of the first proviso contained in Section 310(b)
of the Trust Indenture Act.

     Section 8.9.  Co-Trustees and Separate Trustee. Unless an Event of Default
                   --------------------------------
has occurred and is continuing, at any time or times, for the purpose of
conforming to the legal requirements of the Trust Indenture Act or of any
jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Property may at the time be located,
the Depositor and the Administrative Trustees, except in such instances as set
forth in the following sentence, by agreed action of the majority of such
Trustees, shall have power to appoint, and upon the written request of the
Administrative Trustees, the Depositor shall for such purpose join with the
Administrative Trustees in the execution, delivery, and performance of all
instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint, one or more Persons
approved by the Property Trustee either to act as co-trustee, jointly with the
Property Trustee, of all or any part of such Trust Property, or to the extent
required by law to act as separate trustee of any such property, in either case
with such powers as may be provided in the instrument of appointment, and to
vest in such Person or Persons in the capacity aforesaid, any property, title,
right or power deemed necessary or desirable, subject to the other provisions of
this Section. If the Depositor does not join in such appointment within 15 days
after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case a Debenture Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Property Trustee alone shall have
power to make such appointment. Any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed
pursuant to this Section shall either be (i) a natural person who is at least 21
years of age and a resident of the United States or (ii) a legal entity with its
principal place of business in the United States that shall act through one or
more persons authorized to bind such entity.

     If any written instrument from the Depositor is required by any co-trustee
or separate trustee so appointed for more fully confirming to such co- trustee
or separate trustee such property, title, right or power, any and all such
instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the
Depositor; provided, however, that, if a Debenture Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, the Property Trustee may execute any such instrument on
behalf of the Depositor as its agent and attorney-in-fact therefor.

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

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

                                       44
<PAGE>

                   (b)  The rights, powers, duties and obligations hereby
conferred or imposed upon the Property Trustee in respect of any property
covered by such appointment shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or
performed by the Property Trustee or by the Property Trustee and such co-trustee
or separate trustee jointly, as shall be provided in the instrument appointing
such co-trustee or separate trustee, except to the extent that under any law of
any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed, the Property
Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event
such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed by
such co- trustee or separate trustee.

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

                   (d)  No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be
personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Property Trustee or
any other trustee hereunder.

                   (e)  Except as otherwise provided therein, the Property
Trustee shall not be liable by reason of any act of a co-trustee or separate
trustee.

                   (f)  Any Act of Holders delivered to the Property Trustee
shall be deemed to have been delivered to each such co-trustee and separate
trustee.

     Section 8.10. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. No
                   -------------------------------------------------
resignation or removal of any Trustee (the "RELEVANT TRUSTEE") and no
appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become
effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in
accordance with the applicable requirements of SECTION 8.11.

     Subject to the immediately preceding paragraph, the Relevant Trustee may
resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Securityholders and
the Depositor. Upon giving such notice, a successor to the Relevant Trustee
shall be appointed in accordance with the second succeeding paragraph. If a
successor is not so appointed within a reasonable time not to exceed thirty days
from the date of the Relevant Trustee's notice of resignation, or if for any
reason the instrument of acceptance by the successor Trustee required by Section
8.11 shall not have been delivered to the Relevant Trustee within thirty days
after giving of such notice of resignation, the Relevant Trustee may petition,
at the expense of the Trust, a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of
Delaware to appoint a successor.

                                       45
<PAGE>

     Unless a Debenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any
Trustee may be removed for cause at any time by the Holder of the Common
Securities. If a Debenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may be removed with or without cause
at such time by Holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of the Outstanding
Capital Securities. In no event will the Holders of the Capital Securities have
the right to vote to appoint, remove or replace the Administrative Trustees,
which voting rights are vested exclusively in the Depositor, as Holder of the
Common Securities.

     After removal by the Holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of the
Capital Securities, the successor to the Relevant Trustee may be appointed in
accordance with the next paragraph. If a successor is not so appointed within a
reasonable time not to exceed thirty days from the date of the Relevant
Trustee's removal, or if for any reason the instrument of acceptance by the
successor Trustee required by Section 8.11 has not been delivered to the
Relevant Trustee within thirty days of such removal, the Relevant Trustee may
petition, at the expense of the Trust, a court of competent jurisdiction in the
State of Delaware to appoint a successor.

     If any Trustee resigns, removed or becomes incapable of acting as Trustee,
or if a vacancy occurs in the office of any Trustee for any cause, at a time
when no Debenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Common
Securityholder, by Act of the Holder of Common Securities delivered to the
retiring Trustee, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees, and
the retiring Trustee shall comply with the applicable requirements of
SECTION 8.11. If the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee resigns, removed
or becomes incapable of continuing to act as the Property Trustee or the
Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, at a time when a Debenture Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Holders of Capital Securities, by
Act of the Securityholders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of the Capital
Securities then Outstanding delivered to the retiring Relevant Trustee, shall
promptly appoint a successor Relevant Trustee or Trustees, and such successor
Trustee shall comply with the applicable requirements of SECTION 8.11. If an
Administrative Trustee resigns, removed or becomes incapable of acting as
Administrative Trustee, the Holders of Common Securities by Act of the Holders
of Common Securities delivered to the Administrative Trustee shall promptly
appoint a successor Administrative Trustee or Administrative Trustees and such
successor Administrative Trustee or Administrative Trustees shall comply with
the applicable requirements of SECTION 8.11. If no successor Relevant Trustee
has been so appointed by the Holders of Common Securities or the Holders of
Capital Securities and accepted appointment in the manner required by
SECTION 8.11, any Securityholder who has been a Securityholder of Trust
Securities for at least six months may, on behalf of himself or herself and all
others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Relevant Trustee.

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

     Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Trust
Agreement, if any Administrative Trustee or a Delaware Trustee who is a natural
person dies or becomes, in the opinion of the Depositor, incompetent or

                                       46
<PAGE>

incapacitated, the vacancy created by such death, incompetence or incapacity may
be filled by (a) the unanimous act of remaining Administrative Trustees if there
are at least two of them or (b) otherwise by the Depositor (with the successor
in each case being a Person who satisfies the eligibility requirement for
Administrative Trustees or Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, set forth in
SECTION 8.1).

     Section 8.11. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. In case of the
                   --------------------------------------
appointment hereunder of a successor Relevant Trustee, the successor Relevant
Trustee shall execute and deliver an amendment hereto wherein such successor
Relevant Trustee shall accept such appointment and which shall contain such
provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to
vest in, each successor Relevant Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and
duties of the retiring Relevant Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities and
the Trust, subject to the lien provided for in SECTION 8.7.

     Upon the execution and delivery of such amendment, the resignation or
removal of the Relevant Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided
therein and each such successor Relevant Trustee, without any further act, deed
or conveyance by any Person, shall become vested with the rights, powers, trusts
and duties of the former Relevant Trustee; but, on request of the Trust or any
successor Relevant Trustee such former Relevant Trustee shall duly assign,
transfer and deliver to such successor Relevant Trustee all Trust Property, all
proceeds thereof and money held by such retiring Relevant Trustee hereunder with
respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust.

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

     No successor Relevant Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the
time of such acceptance such successor Relevant Trustee is qualified and
eligible under this Article.

     Section 8.12. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.
                   -----------------------------------------------------------
Any Person into which the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee may be merged
or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from
any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Relevant Trustee shall be
a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate
trust business of such Relevant Trustee, shall be the successor of such Relevant
Trustee hereunder; provided such Person 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.

     Section 8.13. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Depositor or Trust.
                   ------------------------------------------------------------
In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
similar judicial proceeding relative to the Trust or any other obligor upon the
Trust Securities or the property of the Trust or of such other obligor or their
creditors, the Property Trustee (irrespective of whether any Distributions or
other amounts due on the Trust Securities are then due and payable as therein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the

                                       47
<PAGE>

Property Trustee has made any demand on the Trust for the payment of any past
due Distributions or such other amounts) shall be entitled and empowered, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, by intervention in such proceeding or
otherwise:

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

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or
other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by
each Holder to make such payments to the Property Trustee and, if the Property
Trustee consents to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay
to the Property Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Property Trustee, its agents and
counsel, and any other amounts due the Property Trustee under SECTION 8.7.

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

     Section 8.14. Reports by Property Trustee. (a) Not later than March 15 of
                   ---------------------------
each year commencing March 15, 2002, the Property Trustee shall transmit to all
Securityholders in accordance with SECTION 10.8, and to the Depositor, a brief
report dated as of the immediately preceding December 31 concerning the Property
Trustee and its actions under this Trust Agreement if and as may be required
pursuant to Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act.

                   (b)  In addition the Property Trustee shall transmit to
Securityholders such other reports concerning the Property Trustee and its
actions under this Trust Agreement as would be required pursuant to the Trust
Indenture Act were this Trust Agreement to be qualified under the Trust
Indenture Act at the times and in the manner provided pursuant thereto.

                   (c)  A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such
transmission to Holders, be filed by the Property Trustee with any interdealer
quotation system or self-regulatory organization upon which the Trust Securities
are designated for trading, with the Commission and with the Depositor.

     Section 8.15. Reports to the Property Trustee. The Depositor and the
                   -------------------------------
Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust shall provide to the Property
Trustee such documents, reports and information as required by Section 314 of
the Trust Indenture Act (if any) and the compliance certificate required by
Section 314(a)(4) of the Trust Indenture Act in the form, in the manner and at
the times required by Section 314 of the Trust Indenture Act, such compliance

<PAGE>

certificate to be delivered annually on or before March 15 of each year
beginning in 2002. Delivery of such reports, information and documents by the
Depositor to the Property Trustee is for informational purposes only and the
Property Trustee's receipt of such reports, information and documents shall not
constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or
determinable from information contained therein, including the Depositor's
compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Property Trustee
is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers' Certificates.)

     Section 8.16. Evidence of Compliance with Conditions Precedent. Each of the
                   ------------------------------------------------
Depositor and the Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust shall provide
to the Property Trustee such evidence of compliance with such conditions
precedent, if any, provided for in this Trust Agreement that relate to any of
the matters set forth in Section 314(c) of the Trust Indenture Act. Any
certificate or opinion required to be given by an officer pursuant to Section
314(c)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act shall be given in the form of an Officers'
Certificate.

     Section 8.17. Number of Trustees. (a) The number of Trustees shall be four;
                   ------------------
provided that the Holder of all of the Common Securities by written instrument
may increase or decrease the number of Administrative Trustees and the Property
Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may be the same Person.

                   (b)  If a Trustee ceases to hold office for any reason and
the number of Administrative Trustees is not reduced pursuant to
SECTION 8.17(a), or if the number of Trustees is increased pursuant to
SECTION 8.17(a), a vacancy shall occur. The vacancy shall be filled with a
Trustee appointed in accordance with the provisions of SECTION 8.10 relating to
appointment of a successor Trustee upon resignation of a Trustee.

                   (c)  The death, resignation, retirement, removal,
bankruptcy, incompetence or incapacity to perform the duties of a Trustee shall
not operate to dissolve, terminate or annul the Trust. Whenever a vacancy in the
number of Administrative Trustees occurs, until such vacancy is filled by the
appointment of an Administrative Trustee in accordance with SECTION 8.10, the
Administrative Trustees in office, regardless of their number (and
notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement), shall have all the
powers granted to the Administrative Trustees and shall discharge all duties
imposed upon the Administrative Trustees by this Trust Agreement.

     Section 8.18. Delegation of Power. (a) Any Administrative Trustee may, by
                   -------------------
power of attorney consistent with applicable law, delegate to any other natural
person over the age of 21 his or her power for the purpose of executing any
documents contemplated in SECTION 2.7(a) or making any other governmental
filing; and

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

     Section 8.19. Fiduciary Duty. (a) To the extent that, at law or in equity,
                   --------------
an Indemnified Person has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities
relating thereto to the Trust or to any other Covered Person, an Indemnified
Person acting under this Trust Agreement shall not be liable to the Trust or to
any other Covered Person for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this
Trust Agreement. The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they
restrict the duties and liabilities of an Indemnified Person otherwise existing
at law or in equity (other than the duties imposed on the Property Trustee under
the Trust Indenture Act), are agreed by the parties hereto to replace such other
duties and liabilities of such Indemnified Person;

                   (b)  Unless otherwise expressly provided herein:

               (i) whenever a conflict of interest exists or arises between an
          Indemnified Person and any Covered Person; or

               (ii) whenever this Trust Agreement or any other agreement
          contemplated herein or therein provides that an Indemnified Person
          shall act in a manner that is, or provides terms that are, fair and
          reasonable to the Trust or any Holder of Trust Securities,

the Indemnified Person shall resolve such conflict of interest, take such action
or provide such terms, considering in each case the relative interest of each
party (including its own interest) to such conflict, agreement, transaction or
situation and the benefits and burdens relating to such interests, any customary
or accepted industry practices, and any applicable generally accepted accounting
practices or principles. In the absence of bad faith by the Indemnified Person,
the resolution, action or term so made, taken or provided by the Indemnified
Person shall not constitute a breach of this Trust Agreement or any other
agreement contemplated herein or of any duty or obligation of the Indemnified
Person at law or in equity or otherwise; and

                   (c)  Whenever in this Trust Agreement an Indemnified Person
is permitted or required to make a decision

               (i) in its "discretion" or under a grant of similar authority,
          the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to consider such interests
          and factors as it desires, including its own interests, and shall have
          no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or
          factors affecting the Trust or any other Person; or

               (ii) in its "good faith" or under another express standard, the
          Indemnified Person shall act under such express standard and shall not
          be subject to any other or different standard imposed by this Trust
          Agreement or by applicable law.

Depositor at any time to dissolve the Trust and distribute Debentures to
Securityholders in exchange for the Like Amount of the Trust Securities (which
direction is optional and wholly within the discretion of the Depositor),
subject to the Depositor having received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect

Securities for United States federal income tax purposes;

                   (e)  the redemption of all of the Capital Securities in
connection with the redemption or other repayment (at stated maturity or

     Section 9.3.  Termination. The respective obligations and responsibilities
                   -----------

the latest to occur of the following: (a) the distribution by the Property

Trust; and (c) the discharge of all administrative duties of the Administrative
Trustees, including the performance of any tax reporting obligations with

Trustees determine to be possible by distributing, after satisfaction of
liabilities to creditors of the Trust as provided by applicable law, to each
Securityholder a Like Amount of Debentures, subject to SECTION 9.4(d). Notice of
liquidation shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail, postage
prepaid mailed not later than 15 nor more than 60 days prior to the Liquidation
Date to each Holder of Trust Securities at such Holder's address appearing in
the Securities Register. All notices of liquidation shall:

<PAGE>

               (i) state the Liquidation Date;

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

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

                   (b)  Except where SECTION 9.2(e) or 9.4(d) applies, in
order to effect the liquidation of the Trust and distribution of the Debentures
to Securityholders, the Property Trustee shall establish a record date for such
distribution (which shall be not more than 45 days nor less than 15 days prior
to the Liquidation Date) and, either itself acting as exchange agent or through
the appointment of a separate exchange agent, shall establish such procedures as
it deems appropriate to effect the distribution of Debentures in exchange for
the Outstanding Trust Securities Certificates.

                   (c)  Except where SECTION 9.2(e) or 9.4(d) applies, after
the Liquidation Date, (i) the Trust Securities will no longer be deemed to be
Outstanding, (ii) certificates representing a Like Amount of Debentures will be
issued to Holders of Trust Securities Certificates, upon surrender of such
certificates to the Property Trustee or its agent for exchange, (iii) the
Depositor shall use its best efforts to have the Debentures listed on the New
York Stock Exchange or on such other exchange, interdealer quotation system or
self-regulatory organization as the Capital Securities are then listed, (iv) any
Trust Securities Certificates not so surrendered for exchange will be deemed to
represent a Like Amount of Debentures, accruing interest at the rate provided
for in the Debentures from the last Distribution Date on which a Distribution
was made on such Trust Securities Certificates until such certificates are so
surrendered (and until such certificates are so surrendered, no payments of
interest or principal will be made to Holders of Trust Securities Certificates
with respect to such Debentures) and (v) all rights of Securityholders holding
Trust Securities will cease, except the right of such Securityholders to receive
the Like Amount of Debentures upon surrender of Trust Securities Certificates.

                   (d)  In the event that, notwithstanding the other
provisions of this SECTION 9.4, whether because of an order for dissolution
entered by a court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise, distribution of the
Debentures in the manner provided herein is determined by the Property Trustee
not to be practicable, the Trust Property shall be liquidated, and the Trust
shall be dissolved, wound-up and terminated, by the Property Trustee in such
manner as the Property Trustee determines. In such event, on the date of the
dissolution of the Trust, Securityholders will be entitled to receive out of the
assets of the Trust available for distribution to Securityholders, after
satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Trust as provided by applicable
law, an amount equal to the Liquidation Amount per Trust Security plus
accumulated and unpaid Distributions thereon to the date of payment (such amount
being the "LIQUIDATION DISTRIBUTION"). If, upon any such dissolution, winding up
or termination, the Liquidation Distribution can be paid only in part because
the Trust has insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate
Liquidation Distribution, then, subject to the next succeeding sentence, the

                                       52
<PAGE>

amounts payable directly by the Trust on the Trust Securities shall be paid on a
pro rata basis (based upon Liquidation Amounts). The Holder of the Common
Securities will be entitled to receive Liquidation Distributions upon any such
dissolution, winding-up or termination pro rata (determined as aforesaid) with
Holders of Capital Securities, except that, if a Debenture Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Capital Securities shall have a priority over
the Common Securities.

     Section 9.5.  Mergers, Consolidations, Amalgamations or Replacements of the
                   -------------------------------------------------------------
Trust. The Trust may not merge with or into, consolidate, amalgamate, or be
-----
replaced by, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety to any Person, except pursuant to this Article IX.
At the request of the Depositor, with the consent of the Administrative Trustees
and without the consent of the Holders of the Capital Securities, the Property
Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, the Trust may merge with or into, consolidate,
amalgamate, or be replaced by or convey, transfer or lease its properties and
assets substantially as an entirety to a trust organized as such under the laws
of any State; provided, however, that (i) such successor entity either (a)
expressly assumes all of the obligations of the Trust with respect to the
Capital Securities or (b) substitutes for the Capital Securities other
securities having substantially the same terms as the Capital Securities (the
"SUCCESSOR SECURITIES") so long as the Successor Securities rank the same as the
Capital Securities rank in priority with respect to distributions and payments
upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise, (ii) the Depositor expressly
appoints a trustee of such successor entity possessing the same powers and
duties as the Property Trustee as the holder of the Debentures, (iii) the
Successor Securities are listed or traded, or any Successor Securities will be
listed upon notification of issuance, on any national securities exchange or
other organization on which the Capital Securities are then listed or traded, if
any, (iv) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance,
transfer or lease does not cause the Capital Securities (including any Successor
Securities) to be downgraded by any nationally recognized statistical rating
organization, (v) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement,
conveyance, transfer or lease does not adversely affect the rights, preferences
and privileges of the Holders of the Capital Securities (including any Successor
Securities) in any material respect, (vi) such successor entity has a purpose
substantially identical to that of the Trust, (vii) prior to such merger,
consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, the
Depositor has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (a) such merger,
consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease does not
adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the Holders of the
Capital Securities (including any Successor Securities) in any material respect,
and (b) following such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement,
conveyance, transfer or lease, neither the Trust nor such successor entity will
be required to register as an investment company under the 1940 Act and (viii)
the Depositor or any permitted successor or assignee owns all of the common
securities of such successor entity and guarantees the obligations of such
successor entity under the Successor Securities at least to the extent provided
by the Guarantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust shall not, except
with the consent of Holders of 100% in Liquidation Amount of the Capital
Securities, consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or be replaced by or
convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety
to any other Person or permit any other Person to consolidate, amalgamate, merge
with or into, or replace it if such consolidation, amalgamation, merger,
replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease would cause the Trust or the
successor entity to be classified as other than a grantor trust for United
States federal income tax purposes.

however, that with respect to clause (i) any such action shall not adversely

Outstanding and (ii) receipt by the Trustees of an Opinion of Counsel to the

in accordance with such amendment will not affect the Trust's status as a
grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes or the Trust's
exemption from status of an investment company under the 1940 Act.

Distribution on the Trust Securities or otherwise adversely affect the amount of

any other provision herein, without the unanimous consent of the Securityholders
(such consent being obtained in accordance with SECTION 6.3 or 6.6 hereof), this
paragraph (c) of this SECTION 10.2 may not be amended.

<PAGE>

                   (d)  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Trust
Agreement, no Trustee shall enter into or consent to any amendment to this Trust
Agreement that would cause the Trust to fail or cease to qualify for the
exemption from status of an investment company under the 1940 Act or fail or
cease to be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax
purposes.

                   (e)  Notwithstanding anything in this Trust Agreement to

Agreement is made, the Administrative Trustees shall promptly provide to the
Depositor a copy of such amendment.

                   (g)  Neither the Property Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee
shall be required to enter into any amendment to this Trust Agreement that
affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Trust Agreement. The
Property Trustee shall be entitled to receive an Opinion of Counsel and an
Officers' Certificate stating that any amendment to this Trust Agreement is in
compliance with this Trust Agreement.

in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

                          FORM OF 144A GLOBAL SECURITY

     This Capital Security is a 144A Global Security within the meaning of the
Trust Agreement hereinafter referred to and is registered in the name of The
Depository Trust Company (the "DEPOSITORY") or a nominee of the Depository. This
Capital Security is exchangeable for Capital Securities registered in the name
of a person other than the Depository or its nominee only in the limited
circumstances described in the Trust Agreement and no transfer of this Capital
Security (other than a transfer of this Capital Security as a whole by the
Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to
the Depository or another nominee of the Depository) may be registered except in
limited circumstances.

     Unless this Capital Security is presented by an authorized representative
of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), a New York corporation (55 Water
Street, New York), to DPL Capital Trust II or its agent for registration of
transfer, exchange or payment, and any Capital Security issued is registered in
the name of Cede & Co. or such other name as is requested by an authorized
representative of DTC (and any payment hereon is made to Cede & Co. or to such
other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY
TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY A PERSON IS
WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest
herein.

               THE CAPITAL SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN
               REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED

               SOLD, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OR TO,
               OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF, U.S. PERSONS EXCEPT AS SET
               FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF,
               EACH HOLDER OF THE CAPITAL SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY, AND
               EACH PERSON THAT ACQUIRES A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN SUCH
               CAPITAL SECURITIES, (1) REPRESENTS THAT (A) IT IS A "QUALIFIED
               INSTITUTIONAL BUYER" (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE
               SECURITIES ACT) OR (B) IT IS AN INSTITUTIONAL "ACCREDITED
               INVESTOR" (AS DEFINED IN RULE 501 (a)(1),(2),(3) OR (7) UNDER
               THE SECURITIES ACT) ("INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR") OR
               (C) IT IS NOT A U.S. PERSON AND IS ACQUIRING THE CAPITAL
               SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION, (2)
               AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT, PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE

               STATES TO A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN COMPLIANCE WITH
               RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (D) INSIDE THE UNITED
               STATES TO AN INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR THAT, PRIOR TO
               SUCH TRANSFER, FURNISHES TO THE BANK OF NEW YORK, AS PROPERTY
               TRUSTEE, A SIGNED LETTER CONTAINING CERTAIN REPRESENTATIONS
               AND AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF
               SUCH CAPITAL SECURITIES (THE FORM OF WHICH LETTER CAN BE
               OBTAINED FROM SUCH TRUSTEE), (E) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN
               COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (F)
               PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION PROVIDED BY
               RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (IF AVAILABLE) AND (G) IN EACH
               CASE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF THE
               STATES OF THE UNITED STATES OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE
               JURISDICTION AND (3) AGREES THAT IT WILL DELIVER TO EACH
               PERSON TO WHOM THE CAPITAL SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE
               TRANSFERRED A NOTICE SUBSTANTIALLY TO THE EFFECT OF THIS
               LEGEND. IF THE PROPOSED TRANSFEREE IS AN INSTITUTIONAL
               ACCREDITED INVESTOR OR A PURCHASER WHO IS NOT A U.S. PERSON,
               THE HOLDER MUST, PRIOR TO SUCH TRANSFER, FURNISH TO THE BANK
               OF NEW YORK, AS PROPERTY TRUSTEE, SUCH CERTIFICATIONS OR OTHER
               INFORMATION AS DPL INC. MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE TO CONFIRM THAT
               SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM, OR
               IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS
               OF THE SECURITIES ACT. THIS LEGEND WILL BE REMOVED AFTER THE
               EXPIRATION OF THE HOLDING PERIOD APPLICABLE TO SALES OF THE
               CAPITAL SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY UNDER RULE 144(k) UNDER
               THE SECURITIES ACT OR SUCH EARLIER TIME AS A TRANSFER OF SUCH
               CAPITAL SECURITIES IS MADE PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE
               REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. AS USED
               HEREIN, THE TERMS "OFFSHORE TRANSACTION" "UNITED STATES" AND
