Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the holder of any Securities is the Property Trustee, the payment of the principal of and Interest on such Securities held by the Property Trustee will be made at such place and to such account as may be designated by the Property Trustee.

SECTION 2.04.                                                                 Global Security.

(a)                                  In connection with a Dissolution Event,

(i)                                     if any Preferred Securities are held in book-entry form, a Like Amount of Definitive Securities shall be presented to the Debenture Trustee (if an arrangement with the Depositary has been maintained) by the Property Trustee in exchange for one or more Global Securities (as may be required pursuant to Section 2.06), to be registered in the name of the Depositary, or its nominee, and delivered by the Debenture Trustee to the Depositary for crediting to the accounts of its participants pursuant to the instructions of the Administrators; the Corporation upon any such presentation shall execute one or more Global Securities in such aggregate principal amount and deliver the same to the Debenture Trustee for authentication and delivery in accordance with this Indenture; and payments on the Securities issued as a Global Security will be made to the Depositary; and

(ii)                                  if any Preferred Securities are held in certificated form, the related Definitive Securities may be presented to the Debenture Trustee by the Property Trustee and any Preferred Security certificate which represents Preferred Securities other than Preferred Securities in book-entry form (“Non-Book-Entry Preferred Securities”) will be deemed to represent beneficial interests in Securities presented to the Debenture Trustee by the Property Trustee having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Non-Book-Entry Preferred Securities until such Preferred Security certificates are presented to the security registrar for the Securities for transfer or reissuance, at which time such Preferred Security certificates will be cancelled and a Security, registered in the name of the holder of the Preferred Security certificate or the transferee of the holder of such Preferred Security certificate, as the case may be, with an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Preferred Security certificate cancelled, will be executed by the Corporation and delivered to the Debenture Trustee for authentication and delivery in accordance with this Indenture. Upon the issuance of such Securities, Securities with an equivalent aggregate principal

13

amount that were presented by the Property Trustee to the Debenture Trustee will be cancelled.

(b)                                 The Global Securities shall represent the aggregate amount of outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon; provided, that the aggregate amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges, conversions and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Debenture Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Corporation as required by this Section 2.04.

(c)                                  The Global Securities may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only to the Depositary, another nominee of the Depositary, or to a successor Depositary selected or approved by the Corporation or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

(d)                                 If at any time the Depositary notifies the Corporation that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary or the Depositary has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Corporation within 90 days after the Corporation receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be, the Corporation will execute, and the Debenture Trustee, upon receipt of a Corporation Order, will authenticate and make available for delivery the Definitive Securities, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security, in exchange for such Global Security, which shall bear the legends set forth in Section 2.06 hereof and Exhibit A. If there is an Event of Default, the Depositary shall have the right to exchange the Global Securities for Definitive Securities. In addition, the Corporation may at any time determine that the Securities shall no longer be represented by a Global Security. In the event of such an Event of Default or such a determination, the Corporation shall execute, and subject to Section 2.07, the Debenture Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate evidencing such determination by the Corporation and a Corporation Order, will authenticate and make available for delivery the Definitive Securities, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security in exchange for such Global Security. Upon the exchange of the Global Security for such Definitive Securities, in authorized denominations, the Global Security shall be cancelled by the Debenture Trustee. Such Definitive Securities issued in exchange for the Global Security 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 Debenture Trustee. The Debenture Trustee shall deliver such Definitive Securities to the Depositary for delivery to the Persons in whose names such Definitive Securities are so registered.

SECTION 2.05.                                                                 Interest.

(a)                                  Each Security will bear interest at the rate of 5.15% per annum (the “Coupon Rate”) from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from October 17, 2007, until the principal thereof becomes due and payable, and at the Coupon Rate on any overdue principal and on any overdue installment of Interest (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law), compounded quarterly, payable (subject to the provisions of Article XVI) quarterly in

14

arrears on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) commencing on January 15, 2008, to the Person in whose name such Security or any Predecessor Security is registered, as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the regular record date for such interest installment, which shall be the first day of the month, whether or not a Business Day, in which the relevant Interest Payment Date occurs.

(b)                                 Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. In the event that any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that 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), except that if such next succeeding Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar year, then such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date.

(c)                                  If at any time the Trust is required to pay any taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature, other than withholding taxes, imposed by the United States, or any other taxing authority, then the Corporation will be required to pay additional amounts on the Securities. The additional amounts will be sufficient so that the net amounts received and retained by the Trust after paying any such taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges will be not less than the amounts the Trust would have received had no such taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges been imposed. The intention of this clause is that the Trust will be in the same position it would have been if it did not have to pay such taxes, duties, assessments or other charges. The amounts payable pursuant to this paragraph are referred to as “Additional Sums.”

(d)                                 Contingent Interest, if any, shall be calculated and paid in accordance with the provisions of Article XVIII hereof.

SECTION 2.06.                                                                 Transfer and Exchange.

(a)                                  To permit registrations of transfers, the Corporation shall execute and the Debenture Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities and Global Securities at the request of the security registrar for the Securities. All Definitive Securities and Global Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Definitive Securities or Global Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Corporation, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Definitive Securities or Global Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

No service charge shall be made to a holder for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Corporation may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

The Corporation shall not be required to (i) issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of mailing of a notice of redemption or any notice of selection of Securities for redemption under Article XIV hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing; or (ii) register the

15

transfer of or exchange of any Securities selected for redemption in whole or in part except, in the case of any Securities being redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed.

Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Security, the Debenture Trustee, the Corporation and any agent of the Debenture Trustee or the Corporation may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and Interest on such Securities, and none of the Debenture Trustee, the Corporation and any agents of the Debenture Trustee or the Corporation shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(b)                                 Every Security that bears or is required under this Section 2.06(b) to bear the legend set forth in this Section 2.06(b) (together with any Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Securities and required to bear the legend set forth in Section 2.06(c), collectively, the “Restricted Securities”) or Section 2.06(c), as the case may be, shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 2.06(b) or Section 2.06(c), as the case may be, (including those set forth in the legends set forth below) unless such restrictions on transfer shall be waived by written consent of the Corporation, and the Holder of each such Restricted Security, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, agrees to be bound by all such restrictions on transfer. As used in Sections 2.06(b) and 2.06(c), the term “transfer” encompasses any sale, pledge, transfer or other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security.

Until the expiration of the holding period applicable to sales thereof under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision) and provided that the holder has not been an Affiliate of the Corporation at any time during the three-month period preceding such date, any certificate evidencing such Security and all Securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof (other than Common Stock, if any, issued upon conversion thereof, which shall bear the legend set forth in Section 2.06(c), if applicable) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form, unless such Security has been sold pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act (and which continues to be effective at the time of such transfer), or unless otherwise agreed by the Corporation in writing, with written notice thereof to the Trustee:

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Debenture Trustee, or the Corporation and the Debenture Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, the Corporation shall issue and the Debenture Trustee shall authenticate a replacement

18

Security if the Debenture Trustee’s and the Corporation’s requirements, as the case may be, for replacements of Securities are met. An indemnity bond must be supplied by the holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Debenture Trustee and the Corporation to protect the Corporation, the Debenture Trustee, any agent thereof or any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Corporation or the Debenture Trustee may charge for its expenses in replacing a Security.

Every replacement Security is an obligation of the Corporation and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

SECTION 2.08.                                                                 Temporary Securities.

Pending the preparation of Definitive Securities, the Corporation may execute, and upon receipt of a Corporation Order the Debenture Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, temporary Securities that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise reproduced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

If temporary Securities are issued, the Corporation shall cause Definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. The Definitive Securities shall be printed, lithographed or engraved, or provided by any combination thereof, or in any other manner permitted by the rules and regulations of any applicable securities exchange, all as determined by the officers executing such Definitive Securities. After the preparation of Definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for Definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at the office or agency maintained by the Corporation for such purpose pursuant to Section 3.02 hereof, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Corporation shall execute, and the Debenture Trustee, upon receipt of a Corporation Order, shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange therefor the same aggregate principal amount of Definitive Securities of authorized denominations.

SECTION 2.10.                                                                 Defaulted Interest.

(a)                                  The Corporation may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner: the Corporation shall notify the Debenture Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Security and the date of the proposed payment (which date shall be sufficiently in advance of such notice to permit the Debenture Trustee time to take the actions contemplated by this Section 2.10), and at the same time the Corporation shall deposit with the Debenture Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Debenture Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Debenture Trustee shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall not be more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Debenture Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Debenture Trustee shall promptly notify the Corporation of such special record date and, in the name and at the expense of the Corporation, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Securityholder at his or her address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such special record date and shall be no longer payable pursuant to the following clause (b).

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

SECTION 2.11.                                                                 CUSIP Numbers.

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

20

as contained in any notice of a redemption or conversion and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption or conversion shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Corporation will promptly notify the Debenture Trustee of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

SECTION 2.12.                                                                 Tax Treatment.

(a)                                  Each Holder or beneficial owner of a Security (including the Trust), by its acquisition of a Security, hereby agrees:

(i)                                     to treat the Securities for United States federal and state income tax purposes as indebtedness of the Corporation that is subject to the CPDI Regulations;

(ii)                                  to accrue in gross income such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s pro rata share of the interest income accruing on the Securities (in accordance with the “noncontingent bond method” set forth in section 1.1275-4(b) of the CPDI Regulations) on a constant yield to maturity basis at a “comparable yield” (within the meaning of the CPDI Regulations and treating the fair market value of the common stock to be received by such Holder or beneficial owner upon conversion, if any, as a contingent payment) of 8.0%, compounded quarterly, in accordance with the “projected payment schedule” (within the meaning of section 1.1275-4(b) of the CPDI Regulations) determined by the Corporation; and

(iii)                               to treat such comparable yield and projected payment schedule as “reasonable” for the purposes of the CPDI Regulations.

(b)                                 The Corporation hereby agrees (i) to treat the Securities for United States federal and state income tax purposes as indebtedness of the Corporation that is subject to the CPDI Regulations; (ii) to treat the comparable yield and projected payment schedule as “reasonable” for the purposes of the CPDI Regulations; and (iii) and, to treat the Trust as a grantor trust for United States Federal income tax purposes.

The Corporation covenants and agrees that it will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Debenture Trustee:

(a)                                  on each regular record date for the Securities, a list, in such form as the Debenture Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Securityholders as of such record date; and

(b)                                 at such other times as the Debenture Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the Corporation, of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished, except that, no such lists need be furnished so long as the Debenture Trustee is in possession thereof by reason of its acting as security registrar for the Securities.

SECTION 4.02.                                                                 Preservation and Disclosure of Lists.

(a)                                  The Debenture Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the holders of the Securities (1) contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 4.01 or (2) received by it in the capacity of Securities registrar (if so acting) hereunder. The Debenture Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 4.01 upon receipt of a new list so furnished.

(b)                                 In case three or more holders of Securities (hereinafter referred to as “applicants”) apply in writing to the Debenture Trustee and furnish to the Debenture Trustee reasonable proof that each such applicant has owned a Security for a period of at least six months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other holders of Securities or with holders of all Securities with respect to their rights under this Indenture and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Debenture Trustee shall within 5 Business Days after the receipt of such application, at its election, either:

(i)                                     afford such applicants access to the information preserved at the time by the Debenture Trustee in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.02(a), or

If the Debenture Trustee shall elect not to afford such applicants access to such information, the Debenture Trustee shall, upon the written request of such applicants, mail to each Securityholder whose name and address appear in the information preserved at the time by

26

the Debenture Trustee in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.02(a) a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which is specified in such request with reasonable promptness after a tender to the Debenture Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless within five Business Days after such tender, the Debenture Trustee shall mail to such applicants and file with the Commission, together with a copy of the material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Debenture Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best interests of the holders of Securities of such series or all Securities, as the case may be, or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If the Commission, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or more of such objections, the Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Debenture Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all such Securityholders with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise the Debenture Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting their application.

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

27

(d)                                 Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Debenture Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Debenture Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Corporation’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Debenture Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).

SECTION 4.04.                                                                 Reports by the Debenture Trustee.

If required by Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Debenture Trustee shall, within sixty days after January 1 of each year following the date of this Indenture, commencing January 1, 2008, deliver to Securityholders a brief report, which complies with the provisions of such Section 313(a).

(b)                                 A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Securityholders, be filed by the Debenture Trustee with each stock exchange, if any, upon which the Securities are listed, with the Commission and with the Corporation.

ARTICLE V
REMEDIES OF THE DEBENTURE TRUSTEE AND SECURITYHOLDERS
ON EVENT OF DEFAULT

SECTION 5.01.                                                                 Events of Default.

One or more of the following events of default shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(a)                                  default in the payment of any Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) on the Securities, whether or not such payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions of Article XV, or any Other Debentures when due, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; provided, however, that a valid extension of an interest payment period by the Corporation in accordance with the terms hereof shall not constitute a default in the payment of Interest for this purpose; or

(b)                                 default in the payment of any principal of the Securities (whether or not such payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions of Article XV) or any Other Debentures

28

when due whether at maturity, upon redemption, by declaration of acceleration of maturity or otherwise; or

(c)                                  failure by the Corporation to satisfy its conversion obligations in accordance with the provisions of Article XVII upon exercise of a holder’s conversion right; or

(d)                                 default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant of the Corporation in this Indenture (other than a covenant a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 90 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Corporation by the Debenture Trustee or to the Corporation and the Debenture Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or

(e)                                  a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of the Corporation in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Corporation or for any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or

(f)                                    the Corporation shall commence a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, shall consent to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or shall consent to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Corporation or of any substantial part of its property, or shall make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due; or

(g)                                 the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, except in connection with (i) the distribution of the Securities to the holders of the Trust Securities in liquidation of the Trust, (ii) the redemption or conversion of all outstanding Trust Securities of the Trust and (iii) mergers, consolidations or amalgamations in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 3.15 of the Declaration.

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Debenture Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may declare the principal amount of all Securities and all accrued and unpaid Interest (including Contingent Interest) thereon to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Corporation (and to the Debenture Trustee if given by the holders of the outstanding Securities), and upon any such declaration the same shall become immediately due and payable. If the Debenture Trustee or the holders of Securities do not make such a declaration, the holders of at least 25% in aggregate liquidation amount of the Preferred Securities will have such right.

29

The foregoing provisions, however, are subject to the condition that if, at any time after the principal of the Securities shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, (i) the Corporation shall pay or shall deposit with the Debenture Trustee a sum sufficient to pay (A) all matured installments of Interest (including Contingent Interest) upon all the Securities and the principal of any and all Securities that shall have become due other than by acceleration (with interest upon such principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, on overdue installments of Interest (including Contingent Interest), at the Coupon Rate to the date of such payment or deposit) and (B) such amount as shall be sufficient to cover compensation due to the Debenture Trustee and each predecessor Debenture Trustee, their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, pursuant to Section 6.06, and (ii) any and all Events of Default under the Indenture, other than the non-payment of the principal of the Securities which shall have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, shall have been cured, waived or otherwise remedied as provided herein, then, in every such case, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, by written notice to the Corporation and to the Debenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences, but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent Default or shall impair any right consequent thereon. If the Holders of the Securities fail to annul such declaration and waive such Default, the holders of a majority in aggregate liquidation amount of the Preferred Securities shall have such right.

In case the Debenture Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of such rescission or annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Debenture Trustee, then and in every such case the Corporation, the Debenture Trustee and the holders of the Securities shall be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Corporation, the Debenture Trustee and the holders of the Securities shall continue as though no such proceeding had been taken.

SECTION 5.02.                                                                 Payment of Securities on Default; Suit Therefor.

The Corporation covenants that (a) in case Default shall be made in the payment of any installment of Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) upon any of the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable, and such Default shall have continued for a period of 30 days, or (b) in case Default shall be made in the payment of the principal on any of the Securities as and when the same shall have become due and payable, whether at maturity of the Securities or upon redemption or by declaration or otherwise, then, upon demand of the Debenture Trustee, the Corporation will pay to the Debenture Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the Securities, the whole amount that then shall have become due and payable on all such Securities for principal or Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) or both, as the case may be, with interest upon the overdue principal (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law and, if the Securities are held by the Trust or a trustee of such trust, without duplication of any other amounts paid by the Trust or a trustee in respect thereof) and upon the overdue installments of Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) at the rate borne by the Securities; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including reasonable compensation to the Debenture

30

Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel, and any other amount due to the Debenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.06.

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

In case there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Corporation or any other obligor on the Securities under Title 11, United States Code, or any other applicable law, or in case a receiver or trustee shall have been appointed for the property of the Corporation or such other obligor, or in the case of any other similar judicial proceedings relative to the Corporation or other obligor upon the Securities, or to the creditors or property of the Corporation or such other obligor, the Debenture Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Debenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.02, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Debenture Trustee (including any claim for amounts due to the Debenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.06) and of the Securityholders allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Corporation or any other obligor on the Securities, or to the creditors or property of the Corporation or such other obligor, unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the holders of the Securities in any election of a trustee or a standby trustee in arrangement, reorganization, liquidation or other bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or person performing similar functions in comparable proceedings, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction of its charges and expenses; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby authorized by each of the Securityholders to make such payments to the Debenture Trustee, and, in the event that the Debenture Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Securityholders, to pay to the Debenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to, and expenses of, the Debenture Trustee, each predecessor Debenture Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other amounts due to the Debenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.06.

Nothing herein contained shall be construed to authorize the Debenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Securityholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any holder thereof or to authorize the Debenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Securityholder in any such proceeding. The Debenture Trustee shall be entitled to participate as a member of any official committee of creditors in the matters as it deems necessary or advisable.

31

All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Securities, may be enforced by the Debenture Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities, or the production thereof on any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Debenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable benefit of the holders of the Securities.

In any proceedings brought by the Debenture Trustee (and also any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Debenture Trustee shall be a party) the Debenture Trustee shall be held to represent all the holders of the Securities, and it shall not be necessary to make any holders of the Securities parties to any such proceedings.

SECTION 5.03.                                                                 Application of Moneys Collected by Debenture Trustee.

Any moneys collected by the Debenture Trustee shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Debenture Trustee for the distribution of such moneys, upon presentation of the Securities in respect of which moneys have been collected, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

First: To the payment of costs and expenses of collection applicable to the Securities and all other amounts due to the Debenture Trustee under Section 6.06;

Second: To the payment of all Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation if and to the extent required by Article XV;

Third: In case the principal of the outstanding Securities in respect of which moneys have been collected shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon Securities for principal of and Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) on the Securities, in respect of which or for the benefit of which money has been collected, ratably, without preference of priority of any kind, according to the amounts due on such Securities for principal and Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any), respectively; and

Fourth: To the Corporation.

SECTION 5.04.                                                                 Proceedings by Securityholders.

No holder of any Security shall have any right by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless such holder previously shall have given to the Debenture Trustee written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof with respect to the Securities specifying such Event of Default, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding shall have made written request upon the Debenture Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Debenture Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Debenture Trustee such indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Debenture Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such

32

notice, request and offer of indemnity shall have failed to institute any such action, suit or proceeding, it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the taker and holder of every Security with every other taker and holder and the Debenture Trustee, that no one or more holders of Securities shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other holder of Securities, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all holders of Securities.

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

The Corporation and the Debenture Trustee acknowledge that, pursuant to the Declaration, the holders of Preferred Securities are entitled, under the circumstances and subject to the limitations set forth therein, to commence a Direct Action with respect to any Event of Default under this Indenture and the Securities.

SECTION 5.05.                                                                 Proceedings by Debenture Trustee.

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

SECTION 5.06.                                                                 Remedies Cumulative and Continuing.

All powers and remedies given by this Article V to the Debenture Trustee or to the Securityholders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any other powers and remedies available to the Debenture Trustee or the holders of the Securities, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture or otherwise established with respect to the

33

Securities, and no delay or omission of the Debenture Trustee or of any holder of any of the Securities to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or an acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 5.04, every power and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Debenture Trustee or to the Securityholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Debenture Trustee or by the Securityholders.

SECTION 5.07.                                                                 Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Securityholders.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the 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 Debenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Debenture Trustee; provided, however, that (subject to the provisions of Section 6.01) the Debenture Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Debenture Trustee shall determine that the action so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the holders not taking part in such direction or if the Debenture Trustee being advised by counsel determines that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Debenture Trustee in good faith by its board of directors or trustees, executive committee, or a trust committee of directors or trustees and/or Responsible Officers shall determine that the action or proceedings so directed would involve the Debenture Trustee in personal liability. Prior to any declaration accelerating the maturity of the Securities, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding may on behalf of the holders of all of the Securities waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences except a Default or Event of Default (a) in the payment of principal of or Interest (including Compounded Interest, Contingent Interest, Additional Sums and Liquidated Damages, if any) on any of the Securities (unless such Default has been cured and a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) and principal due otherwise than by acceleration has been deposited with the Debenture Trustee) or (b) in respect of covenants or provisions hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each Security affected; provided, however, that if the Securities are held by the Property Trustee, such waiver or modification to such waiver shall not be effective until the holders of a majority in aggregate liquidation amount of Trust Securities shall have consented to such waiver or modification to such waiver; provided further, that where a consent under this Indenture would require the consent of holders of more than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities, such waiver shall not be effective until the holders of at least the same proportion in the aggregate stated liquidation amount of Trust Securities shall have consented to such waiver. Upon any such waiver, the Default covered thereby shall be deemed to be cured for all purposes of this Indenture and the Corporation, the Debenture Trustee and the holders of the Securities shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 5.07, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Securities and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing.

34

SECTION 5.08.                                                                 Notice of Defaults.

The Debenture Trustee shall, within 90 days after the occurrence of a Default with respect to the Securities actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Debenture Trustee, mail to all Securityholders, as the names and addresses of such holders appear upon the Security Register, notice of all Defaults known to the Debenture Trustee, unless such Default shall have been cured before the giving of such notice (the term “Default” for the purpose of this Section 5.08 being hereby defined to be any of the events specified in clauses (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of Section 5.01, not including periods of grace, if any, provided for therein, and irrespective of the giving of written notice specified in clause (d) of Section 5.01); and provided that, except in the case of Default in the payment of the principal of or Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) on any of the Securities, the Debenture Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee, or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Debenture Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Securityholders; and provided further that in the case of any Default of the character specified in Section 5.01(d), no such notice to Securityholders shall be given until at least 60 days after the occurrence thereof, but shall be given within 90 days after such occurrence.

SECTION 5.09.                                                                 Undertaking to Pay Costs.

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Debenture Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Debenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.09 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Debenture Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Securityholder, or group of Securityholders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities outstanding, or to any suit instituted by any Securityholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) on any Security against the Corporation on or after the same shall have become due and payable.

SECTION 5.10.                                                                 Acknowledgment of Rights.

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and such event is attributable to the failure of the Corporation to pay principal of or Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) on the Securities when due (or in connection with a redemption, failure to pay the Redemption Price on the Redemption Date), the Corporation acknowledges that a holder of Preferred Securities may commence a Direct Action against the Corporation to compel it to make such payment to such holder of the principal of or Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) on the Securities having a principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Preferred Securities of such holder on or after the respective due date specified in the securities. The Corporation may not amend this Indenture to remove this right to bring a Direct Action without the prior written consent of the holders of all of the Preferred Securities. Notwithstanding any payments

35

that the Corporation makes to a holder of Preferred Securities in connection with a Direct Action, the Corporation shall remain obligated to pay the principal of and Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) on the Securities, and the Corporation shall be subrogated to the rights of the holder of the Preferred Securities, and have a right of set-off, with respect to payments on the Preferred Securities to the extent that the Corporation makes any payments to a holder of Preferred Securities in any Direct Action.

The holders of the Preferred Securities shall not be entitled to exercise directly any remedies, other than those described in the preceding paragraph, available to Holders of the Securities, unless an event of default exists under the Declaration.

ARTICLE VI
CONCERNING THE DEBENTURE TRUSTEE

SECTION 6.01.                                                                 Duties and Responsibilities of Debenture Trustee.

With respect to the holders of the Securities issued hereunder, the Debenture Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture. In case an Event of Default has occurred (which has not been cured or waived), the Debenture Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.

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

(a)                                  prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which may have occurred,

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

(ii)                                  in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Debenture Trustee, the Debenture Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Debenture Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Debenture Trustee, the Debenture Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein);

36

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

(c)                                  the Debenture 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 Securityholders pursuant to Section 5.07, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Debenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Debenture Trustee, under this Indenture.

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

Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Debenture Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

SECTION 6.02.                                                                 Reliance on Documents, Opinions, Etc.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.01:

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

(b)                                 any request, direction, order or demand of the Corporation mentioned herein may be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed); and any Board Resolution may be evidenced to the Debenture Trustee by a copy thereof certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation;

(c)                                  the Debenture Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and any advice or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel;

(d)                                 the Debenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Securityholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Securityholders shall have offered to the Debenture Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Debenture Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby;

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

37

conferred upon it by this Indenture; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Debenture Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (that has not been cured or waived), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs;

(f)                                    the Debenture Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture, coupon or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities; provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Debenture Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Debenture Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Debenture Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Debenture Trustee may require indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Debenture Trustee against such expense or liability as a condition to so proceeding;

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

(h)                                 the Debenture Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities unless (1) such Default is a Default under Sections 5.01(a) (other than (i) a Default with respect to the payment of Compounded Interest, Liquidated Damages, Additional Sums or Contingent Interest or (ii) a Default with respect to any Other Debentures) or 5.01(b) of the Indenture, (2) a Responsible Officer shall have actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (3) written notice of such Default or Event of Default shall have been given to the Debenture Trustee by the Corporation or any other obligor on the Securities or by any holder of the Securities;

(i)                                     the Debenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith, without negligence or willful misconduct and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;

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

(k)                                  the Debenture Trustee may request that the Corporation deliver an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of Officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, 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;

38

(l)                                     the permissive rights of the Debenture Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as duties; and

(m)                               in no event shall the Trustee be liable for the selection of investments or for investment losses incurred thereon. The Trustee shall have no liability in respect of losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any such investment prior to its stated maturity or the failure of the party directing such investment to provide timely written investment direction. The Trustee shall have no obligation to invest or reinvest any amounts held hereunder in the absence of such written investment direction.

SECTION 6.03.                                                                 No Responsibility for Recitals, Etc.

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities (except in the certificate of authentication of the Debenture Trustee or the Authenticating Agent) shall be taken as the statements of the Corporation, and the Debenture Trustee and the Authenticating Agent assume no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Debenture Trustee and the Authenticating Agent make no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. The Debenture Trustee and the Authenticating Agent shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Corporation of any Securities or the proceeds of any Securities authenticated and delivered by the Debenture Trustee or the Authenticating Agent in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture.

SECTION 6.04.                                                                 Debenture Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agents, Transfer Agents or Registrar May Own Securities.

The Debenture Trustee or any Authenticating Agent or any paying agent or any transfer agent or any security registrar for the Securities, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities with the same rights it would have if it were not Debenture Trustee, Authenticating Agent, paying agent, transfer agent or security registrar for the Securities.

SECTION 6.05.                                                                 Moneys to Be Held in Trust.

Subject to the provisions of Section 11.04, all moneys received by the Debenture Trustee or any paying agent shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purpose for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Debenture Trustee and any paying agent shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Corporation. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all interest allowed on any such moneys shall be paid from time to time upon the written order of the Corporation, signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the President or a Vice President or the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer of the Corporation.

SECTION 6.06.                                                                 Compensation and Expenses of Debenture Trustee.

The Corporation, as issuer of Securities under this Indenture, covenants and agrees to pay to the Debenture Trustee from time to time, and the Debenture Trustee shall be entitled to, such compensation as shall be agreed to in writing between the Corporation and the Debenture

39

Trustee (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust), and the Corporation will pay or reimburse the Debenture Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Debenture Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith. The Corporation also covenants to indemnify and defend each of the Debenture Trustee (including in its individual capacity) and any predecessor Debenture Trustee (and its officers, agents, directors and employees) for, and to hold it harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or expense including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Debenture Trustee) incurred without negligence or bad faith on the part of the Debenture Trustee and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including advancement of the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability in the premises. The obligations of the Corporation under this Section 6.06 to compensate and indemnify the Debenture Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Debenture Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder. Such additional indebtedness shall be secured by a lien prior to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Debenture Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the holders of particular Securities.

When the Debenture Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(e) or Section 5.01(f), the expenses (including the 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 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Debenture Trustee and the defeasance or other termination of this Indenture.

SECTION 6.07.                                                                 Officers’ Certificate as Evidence.

Except as otherwise provided in Sections 6.01 and 6.02, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Debenture Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof is herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Debenture Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Debenture Trustee, and such certificate, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Debenture Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Debenture Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.

SECTION 6.08.                                                                 Conflicting Interest of Debenture Trustee.

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

40

SECTION 6.09.                                                                 Eligibility of Debenture Trustee.

The Debenture Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a Person organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or any state or territory thereof or the District of Columbia, or a Person permitted to act as trustee by the Commission authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least 50 million U.S. dollars ($50,000,000) and subject to supervision or examination by federal, state, territorial, or District of Columbia authority. If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.09 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.

The Corporation may not, nor may any Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Corporation, serve as Debenture Trustee.

In case at any time the Debenture Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.09, the Debenture Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 6.10.

Notwithstanding an provision in this Indenture to the contrary, the Person serving as Debenture Trustee also may serve as Institutional Administrator under the Declaration.

SECTION 6.10.                                                                 Resignation or Removal of Debenture Trustee.

(a)                                  The Debenture Trustee, or any trustee or trustees hereafter appointed, may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the Corporation and by mailing notice thereof to the holders of the Securities at their addresses as they shall appear on the Security Register. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Corporation shall promptly appoint a successor trustee or trustees by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Debenture Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 60 days after the mailing of such notice of resignation to the affected Securityholders, the resigning Debenture Trustee, at the expense of the Corporation, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee, or any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security for at least six months may, subject to the provisions of Section 5.09, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee.

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

(i)                                     the Debenture Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 6.08 after written request therefor by the Corporation or by any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months, or

41

(ii)                                  the Debenture Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Corporation or by any such Securityholder, or

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

then, in any such case, the Corporation may remove the Debenture Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Debenture Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject to the provisions of Section 5.09, any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Debenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Debenture Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

(c)                                  The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding may at any time remove the Debenture Trustee and nominate a successor trustee, which shall be deemed appointed as successor trustee unless within 10 days after such nomination the Corporation objects thereto, or if no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted appointment within 30 days after such removal, in which case the Debenture Trustee so removed or any Securityholder, upon the terms and conditions and otherwise as in Section 6.10(a) provided, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor trustee.

(d)                                 Any resignation or removal of the Debenture Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 6.10 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 6.11.

(e)                                  Notwithstanding replacement of the Debenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.10, the Corporation’s obligations under Section 6.06 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Debenture Trustee.

SECTION 6.11.                                                                 Acceptance by Successor Debenture Trustee.

Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 6.10 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Corporation and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Corporation or of the successor trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the trustee so

42

ceasing to act and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor trustee all property and money held by such retiring trustee thereunder. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Corporation shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a lien upon all property or funds held or collected by such trustee to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.06.

No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 6.11 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 6.08 and eligible under the provisions of Section 6.09.

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 6.11, the Corporation shall mail notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the holders of Securities at their addresses as they shall appear on the Security Register. If the Corporation fails to mail such notice within 10 days after the acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Corporation.

SECTION 6.12.                                                                 Succession by Merger, Etc.

Any Person into which the Debenture 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 the Debenture Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Debenture Trustee, shall be the successor of the Debenture Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

In case at the time such successor to the Debenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Debenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Debenture Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which the Securities or this Indenture elsewhere provides that the certificate of the Debenture Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Debenture Trustee or authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor Debenture Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

SECTION 6.13.                                                                 Limitation on Rights of Debenture Trustee as a Creditor.

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

43

SECTION 6.14.                                                                 Co-trustees and Separate Trustees.

At any time or times, at the expense of the Corporation and for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of any applicable jurisdiction, the Corporation and the Debenture Trustee shall have power to appoint, and, upon the written request of the Debenture Trustee or of the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, the Corporation shall for such purpose join with the Debenture Trustee in the execution and delivery of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint, one or more Persons approved by the Debenture Trustee, or to act as separate trustee, jointly with the Debenture Trustee, or to act as separate trustee, 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 Corporation does not join in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Debenture Trustee alone shall have power to make such appointment.

Should any written instrument or instruments from the Corporation be required by any co-trustee or separate trustee so appointed to more fully confirm 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 Corporation.

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

(a)           the Securities shall be authenticated 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 Debenture Trustee hereunder, shall be exercised solely, by the Debenture Trustee;

(b)           the rights, powers, duties and obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Debenture Trustee in respect of any property covered by such appointment shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed either by the Debenture Trustee or by the Debenture 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 Debenture 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 Debenture Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by it, with the concurrence of the Corporation, may accept the resignation of or remove any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed under this Section, and, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Debenture Trustee shall have power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such co-trustee or separate trustee without the concurrence of the Corporation. Upon the written request of the Debenture Trustee, the Corporation shall join with the Debenture Trustee in the execution and delivery of all instruments and agreements, necessary or proper to effectuate such resignation or removal. A successor to any co-trustee or separate trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section;

44

(d)           no co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Debenture Trustee, or any other such trustee hereunder; and

(e)           any notice from the holders of Securities delivered to the Debenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to each such co-trustee and separate trustee.

SECTION 6.15.                                                                 Authenticating Agents.

There may be one or more Authenticating Agents appointed by the Debenture Trustee upon the request of the Corporation with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication and delivery of Securities issued upon exchange or transfer thereof as fully to all intents and purposes as though any such Authenticating Agent had been expressly authorized to authenticate and deliver Securities; provided that the Debenture Trustee shall have no liability to the Corporation for any acts or omissions of the Authenticating Agent with respect to the authentication and delivery of Securities. Any such Authenticating Agent shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state or territory thereof or of the District of Columbia authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and being subject to supervision or examination by federal, state, territorial or District of Columbia authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually pursuant to law or the requirements of such authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.15 the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect herein specified in this Section.

Any corporation into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, if such successor corporation is otherwise eligible under this Section 6.15 without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent.

Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Debenture Trustee and to the Corporation. The Debenture Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Corporation. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible under this Section 6.15, the Debenture Trustee may, and upon the request of the Corporation shall, promptly appoint a successor Authenticating Agent eligible under this Section 6.15, shall give written notice of such appointment to the Corporation and the Corporation shall mail notice of such appointment to all Securityholders as the names and addresses of such holders appear on the Security Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all rights, powers, duties and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Authenticating Agent herein.

45

The Corporation, as borrower, agrees to pay to any Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services. Any Authenticating Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any action taken by it as such in accordance with the directions of the Debenture Trustee.

ARTICLE VII
CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS

SECTION 7.01.                                                                 Action by Securityholders.

Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the holders of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action the holders of such specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced (a) by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by such Securityholders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing, or (b) by the record of such holders of Securities voting in favor thereof at any meeting of such Securityholders duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII, or (c) by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of such Securityholders.

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

SECTION 7.02.                                                                 Proof of Execution by Securityholders.

Subject to the provisions of Section 6.01, 6.02 and 8.05, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Securityholder or his agent or proxy shall be sufficient if made in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Debenture Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Debenture Trustee. The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register or by a certificate of the security registrar for the Securities. The Debenture Trustee may require such additional proof of any matter referred to in this Section 7.02 as it shall deem necessary.

46

The record of any Securityholders’ meeting shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 8.06.

SECTION 7.03.                                                                 Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners.

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Security, the Corporation, the Debenture Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any paying agent, any transfer agent and any security registrar for the Securities may deem the person in whose name such Security shall be registered upon the Security Register to be, and may treat him as, the absolute owner of such Security (whether or not such Security shall be overdue) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and (subject to Section 2.05) Interest on such Security and for all other purposes; and neither the Corporation nor the Debenture Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent nor any paying agent nor any transfer agent nor any security registrar for the Securities shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments so made to any holder for the time being or upon his order shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable upon any such Security.

SECTION 7.04.                                                                 Securities Owned by Corporation Deemed Not Outstanding.

In determining whether the holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture, Securities which are owned by the Corporation or any other obligor on the Securities or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Corporation or any other obligor on the Securities shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such determination; provided that for the purposes of determining whether the Debenture Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver, only Securities which a Responsible Officer of the Debenture Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Securities so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding for the purposes of this Section 7.04 if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Debenture Trustee the pledgee’s right to vote such Securities and that the pledgee is not the Corporation or any such other obligor or Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Corporation or any such other obligor. In the case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Debenture Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Debenture Trustee.

SECTION 7.05.                                                                 Revocation of Consents; Future Holders Bound.

At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Debenture Trustee, as provided in Section 7.01, of the taking of any action by the holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any holder of a Security (or any Security issued in whole or in part in exchange or substitution therefor), subject to Section 7.01, the serial number of which is shown by the evidence to be included in the group of Securities the holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice with the Debenture Trustee at its principal office and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 7.02, revoke such action so far as concerns such Security (or so far as concerns the principal amount represented by any exchanged or substituted Security). Except as

47

aforesaid any such action taken by the holder of any Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders and owners of such Security, and of any Security issued in exchange or substitution therefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Security or any Security issued in exchange or substitution therefor.

ARTICLE IX
AMENDMENTS

SECTION 9.01.                                                                 Without Consent of Securityholders.

The Corporation, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Debenture Trustee may from time to time and at any time amend the Indenture, without the consent of the Securityholders, for one or more of the following purposes:

(a)           to evidence the succession of another Person to the Corporation, or successive successions, and the assumption by the successor Person of the covenants, agreements and obligations of the Corporation pursuant to Article X;

(b)           to add additional Events of Default or to add to the covenants of the Corporation such further covenants, restrictions or conditions for the protection of the Securityholders as the Board of Directors and the Debenture Trustee shall consider to be for the protection of the Securityholders, and to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of a default in any of such additional covenants, restrictions or conditions a Default or an Event of Default permitting the enforcement of all or any of the remedies provided in this Indenture as herein set forth; provided, however, that in respect of any such additional covenant, restriction or condition such amendment may provide for a particular period of grace after default (which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the case of other defaults) or may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such default or may limit the remedies available to the Debenture Trustee upon such default;

(c)           to provide for the issuance under this Indenture of Securities in coupon form (including Securities registrable as to principal only) and to provide for exchangeability of such Securities with the Securities issued hereunder in fully registered form and to make all appropriate changes for such purpose;

(e)           to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor trustee with respect to the Securities;

(g)           to qualify or maintain qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act; or

(h)           to ensure that the Trust is not required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act; or

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

provided that any such amendment does not materially adversely affect the interests of Securityholders or cause the Trust to be treated other than as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes.

The Debenture Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Corporation in the execution of any supplemental indenture to effect such amendment, to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained and to accept the conveyance, transfer and assignment of any property thereunder, but the Debenture Trustee shall not be obligated to, but may in its discretion, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Debenture Trustee’s own rights, duties, privileges or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Any amendment to the Indenture authorized by the provisions of this Section 9.01 may be executed by the Corporation and the Debenture Trustee without the consent of the holders of any of the Securities at the time outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 9.02.

SECTION 9.02.                                                                 With Consent of Securityholders.

With the consent (evidenced as provided in Section 7.01) of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, the Corporation, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Debenture Trustee may from time to time and at any time amend the Indenture for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the Securities; provided, however, that no such amendment shall, without the consent of the holders of each Security then outstanding and affected thereby (i) change the Maturity Date of any Security, or reduce the principal amount of, or any installment of principal of or Interest on the Securities; (ii) reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any); (iii) change any of the provisions of Article XIV relating to redemption; (iv) change the Conversion Rate except as provided in Section 17.03 and Section 17.04 with respect to adjustment of the Conversion Rate, or otherwise change the right to convert the Securities in a manner that would be adverse to Securityholders; (v) make the principal of, or Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) payment on, the Securities payable in any coin or currency other than that provided herein; (vi) change any obligation of the Corporation to

51

maintain an office or agency in the places and for the purposes required by the Indenture or change the place of payment where the Securities or any Interest payment thereon is payable; (vii) impair or affect the right of any holder of Securities to institute suit for the payment of the Securities as provided herein; (viii) reduce the percentage of the principal amount of the Securities required to consent to modify or amend the Indenture or for any waiver of compliance with provisions of the Indenture as stated herein or for waiver of Defaults as stated herein; (ix) make any change adverse to a Holder with respect to the subordination provisions of Article XV; or (x) modify any of the foregoing provisions; provided, however, that if the Securities are held by the Trust, no such modification or amendment referred to in clauses (i) through (x) shall be effective until the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate liquidation amount of the Trust Securities shall have consented to such modification or amendment; and provided further, however, that where a consent under the Indenture would require the consent of Securityholders of more than a majority of the principal amount of the Securities, such modification or amendment shall not be effective until the holders of at least the same proportion in aggregate stated liquidation amount of the Trust Securities shall have consented to such modification or amendment.

Upon the request of the Corporation accompanied by a copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors certified by its secretary or assistant secretary authorizing the execution of any supplemental indenture effecting such amendment, and upon the filing with the Debenture Trustee of evidence of the consent of Securityholders as aforesaid, the Debenture Trustee shall join with the Corporation in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Debenture Trustee’s own rights, duties, privileges or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Debenture Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture.

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

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Securityholders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.

SECTION 9.03.                                                                 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act; Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

Any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX shall comply with the Trust Indenture Act.

52

conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.

SECTION 9.04.                                                                 Notation on Securities.

Securities authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture affecting such Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX may bear a notation in form approved by the Debenture Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Corporation or the Debenture Trustee shall so determine, new Securities so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Debenture Trustee and the Board of Directors, to any modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Corporation, authenticated by the Debenture Trustee or the Authenticating Agent and delivered in exchange for the Securities then outstanding.

SECTION 9.05.                                                                 Evidence of Compliance of Supplemental Indenture to Be Furnished to Debenture Trustee.

The Debenture Trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections 6.01 and 6.02, may receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant hereto complies with the requirements of this Article IX.

The Corporation shall be deemed to have been Discharged (as defined below) from its obligations with respect to the Securities after the applicable conditions set forth below have been satisfied:

(b)           no Default or Event of Default (including as a result of such deposit) with respect to the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit;

(d)           the Corporation shall have delivered to the Debenture Trustee and the Defeasance Agent, if any, an opinion of independent tax counsel or a private letter ruling issued by the Internal Revenue Service satisfactory to the Debenture Trustee to the effect that holders of the Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the exercise of the option under this Section 11.05 and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such option had not been exercised; and

(e)           the Corporation shall have delivered to the Trustee and the Defeasance Agent, if any, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that all conditions precedent

56

herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.

“Discharged” means that the Corporation shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by, and obligations under, the Securities and to have satisfied all the obligations under this Indenture relating to the Securities (and the Debenture Trustee, at the expense of the Corporation, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except (A) the rights of holders of Securities to receive, from the trust fund described in clause (1) above, payment of the principal of and the Interest on the Securities when such payments are due; (B) the Corporation’s obligations with respect to the Securities under Sections 2.06, 2.07, 5.02, 5.04, 6.05 and 11.04 and Article XVII; and (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties, privileges and immunities of the Debenture Trustee hereunder.

In the event such a Defeasance Agent is appointed pursuant to this Section, the following conditions shall apply:

(a)           The Debenture Trustee shall have approval rights over the document appointing such Defeasance Agent and the document setting forth such Defeasance Agent’s rights and responsibilities; and

(b)           The Defeasance Agent shall provide verification to the Debenture Trustee acknowledging receipt of sufficient money and/or U.S. Government Obligations to meet the applicable conditions set forth in this Section 11.05.

ARTICLE XIII
PURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDER
UPON CHANGE IN CONTROL

SECTION 13.01.                                                           Repurchase Right.

In the event that a Change in Control shall occur while any of the Securities are outstanding, each Holder shall have the right (the “Repurchase Right”), at the Holder’s option to require the Corporation to repurchase, and upon the exercise of such right the Corporation shall repurchase, all of such Holder’s Securities not theretofore called for redemption, or any portion of the principal amount thereof that is equal to $50.00 or any integral multiple thereof (provided that no single Security may be repurchased in part unless the portion of the principal amount of such Security to be outstanding after such repurchase is equal to $50.00 or integral multiples thereof), on the date (the “Repurchase Date”) that is the 60th day following the effective date of the Change in Control at a repurchase price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid Interest (including Deferred Interest and Contingent Interest, if any) to, but excluding, the Repurchase Date (the “Repurchase Price”).

SECTION 13.02.                                                           Notices, Method of Exercised Repurchase Right.

As promptly as practicable following the date the Corporation publicly announces such transaction but in no event less than 15 days prior to the anticipated effective date of a Change in Control, the Corporation shall give to all Holders of Securities notice of the Change in Control transaction and of the Repurchase Right set forth herein arising as a result thereof (the “Company Notice”).  The Corporation shall also deliver a copy of such notice to the Debenture Trustee, in its capacity as such and as Property Trustee.  Each notice of a Repurchase Right shall state:

(i)            a brief description of the event or events constituting the Change in Control and the Repurchase Date;

(ii)           the date by which the Repurchase Right must be exercised, which shall be the second Business Day prior to the Repurchase Date;

(iii)          the Repurchase Price;

(iv)          a description of the procedure which a Holder must follow to exercise a Repurchase Right, and the place or places where such Securities, are to be surrendered for payment of the Repurchase Price and accrued and unpaid Interest, if any;

(v)           that on the Repurchase Date the Repurchase Price and accrued and unpaid Interest, if any, will become due and payable upon each such Security designated by the Holder to be repurchased, and that Interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after said date;

(vi)          the Conversion Rate then in effect and the place where such Securities may be surrendered for conversion;

58

(vii)         that the Repurchase Notice is irrevocable and that Securities as to which a Repurchase Notice has been given may not thereafter be converted;

(viii)        the place or places where such Securities, together with the Repurchase Notice are to be delivered for payment of the Repurchase Price and accrued and unpaid Interest, if any; and

(ix)           whether the Conversion Rate will be increased by a number of Make-Whole Shares upon conversion in accordance with the provisions of Section 17.04.

No failure of the Corporation to give the foregoing notices or defect therein shall limit any Holder’s right to exercise a Repurchase Right or affect the validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of Securities.

SECTION 13.03.                                                           Repurchase Date; Exercise of Right.

(a)           To exercise the repurchase right set forth in this Article XIII in respect of all or a portion of the Securities, the Securityholder thereof shall deliver to the Corporation and Debenture Trustee, no later than the second Business Day prior to the Repurchase Date, an irrevocable written notice substantially in the form set forth on the reverse of the form of Security attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Repurchase Notice”) setting forth the principal amount of Securities to be repurchased and, if such Securities are in certificated form, surrender to the Debenture Trustee the Securities to be repurchased, duly endorsed or assigned to the Corporation or in blank. In addition, a holder of Preferred Securities may exercise its right under the Trust Agreement to exchange such Preferred Securities for Securities which shall be repurchased by the Corporation by delivering to the Exchange Agent an irrevocable Notice of Repurchase Election (as such term is defined in the Declaration) setting forth the information required thereby and directing the Exchange Agent (i) to exchange such Preferred Security for a portion of the Securities held by the Trust (at an exchange rate of $50.00 principal amount of Securities for each Preferred Security), and (ii) to immediately require the Corporation to repurchase such Securities on the Repurchase Date, on behalf of such holder of Preferred Securities pursuant to this Article XIII and, if such Preferred Securities are in certificated form, surrendering such Preferred Securities, duly endorsed or assigned to the Corporation or in blank. So long as any Preferred Securities are outstanding, the Trust shall not exercise the Repurchase Right in respect of any Securities except pursuant to a Notice of Repurchase Election delivered to the Exchange Agent by a holder of Preferred Securities.

(b)           In the event a Repurchase Right shall be exercised in accordance with the terms hereof, the Corporation shall pay or cause to be paid to the Debenture Trustee the Repurchase Price in cash, as provided above, for payment to the Holder on the Repurchase Date, together with accrued and unpaid Interest (including Deferred Interest and Contingent Interest, if any)  to the Repurchase Date payable in cash with respect to the Securities as to which the Repurchase Right has been exercised.

(c)           If any Security (or portion thereof) surrendered for repurchase shall not be so paid on the Repurchase Date, the principal amount of such Security (or portion thereof, as the case

59

may be) shall, until paid, bear Interest to the extent permitted by applicable law from the Repurchase Date at the rate of Interest on the Security.

Any Security which is to be repurchased only in part shall be surrendered to the Debenture Trustee (with, if the Corporation or the Debenture Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Corporation and the Debenture Trustee duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Corporation shall execute, and the Debenture Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities, containing identical terms and conditions, each in an authorized denomination in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unrepurchased portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

The Corporation shall comply with the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Securities as a result of a Change in Control.

ARTICLE XIV
REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

SECTION 14.01.                                                           Special Event Redemption.

If, a Special Event that adversely affects the status of the Trust, the Preferred Securities or the Securities has occurred and is continuing, the Corporation shall have the right, at any time following the occurrence of such Special Event, upon (i) not less than 45 days written notice to the Debenture Trustee and (ii) not less than 20 days nor more than 60 days written notice to the Securityholders, to redeem the Securities, in whole (but not in part), at the Redemption Price. The Redemption Price shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of such redemption or such earlier time as the Corporation determines, provided that the Corporation shall deposit with the Debenture Trustee an amount sufficient to pay the Redemption Price by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date such Redemption Price is to be paid.

SECTION 14.02.                                                           Optional Redemption by Corporation.

Subject to Section 14.01, the Securities shall not be redeemable at the option of the Corporation prior to October 15, 2012.  The Corporation shall have the right to redeem the Securities, in whole or in part, on one or more occasions at any time on or after October 15, 2012 if the Closing Price of the Common Stock for 20 Trading Days in a period of 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day prior to the mailing of the notice of redemption exceeds 130% of the then prevailing Conversion Price.

If the Securities are only partially redeemed pursuant to this Section 14.02, the Securities to be redeemed shall be selected on a pro rata basis not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption from the outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption, provided,

60

however, that with respect to Securityholders that would be required to hold Securities with an aggregate principal amount of less than $5,000 but more than an aggregate principal amount of zero as a result of such pro rata redemption, the Corporation shall redeem Securities of each such Securityholder so that after such redemption such Securityholder shall hold Securities either with an aggregate principal amount of at least $5,000 or such Securityholder no longer holds any Securities, and shall use such method (including, without limitation, by lot) as the Corporation shall deem fair and appropriate, provided further that any such proration may be made on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of Securities held by each Securityholder and may be made by making such adjustments as the Corporation deems fair and appropriate in order that only Securities in denominations of $50.00 or integral multiples thereof shall be redeemed. The Redemption Price shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of such redemption or at such earlier time as the Corporation determines, provided that the Corporation shall deposit with the Debenture Trustee an amount sufficient to pay the Redemption Price by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date such Redemption Price is to be paid.

SECTION 14.03.                                                           No Sinking Fund.

The Securities are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

SECTION 14.04.                                                           Notice of Redemption; Selection of Securities.

In case the Corporation shall desire to exercise the right to redeem all, or, as the case may be, any part of the Securities in accordance with their terms, it shall fix a date for redemption and shall mail a notice of such redemption at least 20 and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the holders of Securities to be so redeemed as a whole or in part at their last addresses as the same appear on the Security Register. For purposes of the calculation of the date of redemption and the dates on which notices are given pursuant to this Section 14.04, a redemption notice shall be deemed to be given on the day such notice is first mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to holders. The notice if mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the holder of any Security designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Security.

Each such notice of redemption shall specify the CUSIP number of the Securities to be redeemed, the date fixed for redemption, the Redemption Price at which the Securities are to be redeemed (or the method by which such Redemption Price is to be calculated), the place or places of payment that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Securities, that Interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in said notice, that on and after said date Interest thereon or on the portions thereof to be redeemed will cease to accrue, the then-current Conversion Price, the name and address of the paying agent and the Conversion Agent, that the Securities called for redemption may be converted at any time before 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day immediately preceding the redemption date and that Securityholders who wish to convert Securities must satisfy the requirements in the Indenture and the Securities. If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the notice of redemption shall specify the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed. In case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption shall state the portion of the

61

principal amount thereof to be redeemed and shall state that on and after the date fixed for redemption, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities in principal amount equal to the portion thereof that has not been redeemed will be issued.

By 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption given as provided in this Section, the Corporation will deposit with the Debenture Trustee or with one or more paying agents an amount of money sufficient to redeem on the redemption date all the Securities so called for redemption at the appropriate Redemption Price.

The Corporation will give the Debenture Trustee notice not less than 45 days prior to the redemption date as to the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and the Debenture Trustee shall select, in such manner as in its sole discretion it shall deem appropriate and fair, the Securities or portions thereof (in integral multiples of $50.00, except as otherwise set forth in the applicable form of Security) to be redeemed.

SECTION 14.05.                                                           Payment of Securities Called for Redemption.

If notice of redemption has been given to Securityholders as provided in Section 14.04, the Securities or portions of Securities with respect to which such notice has been given shall become due and payable on the date and at the place or places stated in such notice at the Redemption Price (subject to the rights of holders of Securities at the close of business on a regular record date to receive Interest in respect of an Interest Payment Date occurring on or prior to the Redemption Date), and on and after said date (unless the Corporation shall default in the payment of such Securities at the Redemption Price) Interest on the Securities or portions of Securities so called for redemption shall cease to accrue. On presentation and surrender of such Securities at a place of payment specified in said notice, the said Securities or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and redeemed by the Corporation at the Redemption Price (subject to the rights of holders of Securities on the close of business on a regular record date to receive Interest in respect of an Interest Payment Date occurring on or prior to the Redemption Date).

Upon presentation of any Security redeemed in part only, the Corporation shall execute and the Debenture Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the holder thereof, at the expense of the Corporation, a new Security or Securities of authorized denominations, in principal amount equal to the portion of the Security so presented that has not been redeemed.

SECTION 14.06.                                                           Conversion Arrangement on Call for Redemption.

In connection with any redemption of Securities, the Corporation may arrange for the purchase and conversion of any Securities by an agreement with one or more investment bankers or other purchasers to purchase such Securities by paying to the Trustee in trust for the Holders, on or before the Redemption Date, an amount not less than the applicable Redemption Price of such Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article XIV, the obligation of the Corporation to pay the Redemption Price of such Securities shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged to the extent such amount is so paid by such purchasers. If such an agreement is entered into, a copy of which shall be filed with the Trustee prior to the Redemption Date, any Securities not duly surrendered for conversion by the Holders thereof, may, at the

62

option of the Corporation, be deemed, to the fullest extent permitted by law, acquired by such purchasers from such Holders and (notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Article XVII) surrendered by such purchasers for conversion, all as of immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date (and the right to convert any such Securities shall be deemed to have been extended through such time), subject to payment of the above amount as aforesaid. At the written direction of the Corporation, the Debenture Trustee shall hold and dispose of any such amount paid to it in the same manner as it would monies deposited with it by the Corporation for the redemption of Securities. Without the Debenture Trustee’s prior written consent, no arrangement between the Corporation and such purchasers for the purchase and conversion of any Securities shall increase or otherwise affect any of the powers, duties, responsibilities or obligations of the Debenture Trustee as set forth in this Indenture, and the Corporation agrees to indemnify the Debenture Trustee from, and hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability or expense arising out of or in connection with any such arrangement for the purchase and conversion of any Securities between the Corporation and such purchasers, including advancement of the costs and expenses incurred by the Debenture Trustee in the defense of any claim or liability arising out of or in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers, duties, responsibilities or obligations under this Indenture. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to limit the rights, privileges, immunities and protections afforded to the Debenture Trustee in Article VI. Nothing in this Section 14.06 shall affect the right of the Holders to receive the full Redemption Price on the Redemption Date.

ARTICLE XV
SUBORDINATION OF SECURITIES

SECTION 15.01.                                                           Agreement to Subordinate.

The Corporation covenants and agrees, and each holder of Securities issued hereunder likewise covenants and agrees, that the Securities shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Article XV; and each holder of a Security, whether upon original issue or upon transfer or assignment thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions.

The payment by the Corporation of the principal of and Interest on all Securities issued hereunder shall, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and junior in right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness, whether outstanding at the date of this Indenture or thereafter incurred.

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

SECTION 15.02.                                                           Default on Senior Indebtedness.

In the event and during the continuation of any default by the Corporation in the payment of principal, interest or any other payment due on any Senior Indebtedness, or in the event that any event of default exists with respect to any Senior Indebtedness that permits the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to accelerate the maturity of such Senior Indebtedness, or if any judicial proceeding shall be pending with respect to any such default or event of default, then, in any such case, no payment shall be made by the Corporation with respect to the principal

63

(including redemption payments) of or Interest on the Securities or any other amounts which may be due on the Securities pursuant to the terms hereof or otherwise.

In the event of the acceleration of the maturity of the Securities, then no payment shall be made by the Corporation with respect to the principal (including redemption payments) or Interest on the Securities or any other amounts which may be due on the Securities pursuant to the terms hereof or otherwise until the holders of all Senior Indebtedness outstanding at the time of such acceleration shall receive payment in full (whether in cash, cash equivalents or any other manner reasonably satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness) of such Senior Indebtedness (including any amounts due upon acceleration).

In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment shall be received by the Debenture Trustee or otherwise by or for the benefit of the Securityholders when such payment is prohibited by the preceding paragraphs of this Section 15.02, such payment shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their respective representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, but only to the extent that the holders of the Senior Indebtedness (or their representative or representatives or a trustee) notify the Debenture Trustee in writing within 90 days of such payment of the amounts then due and owing on such Senior Indebtedness, and only the amounts specified in such notice to the Debenture Trustee shall be paid to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

SECTION 15.03.                                                           Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy.

Upon any payment by the Corporation or distribution of assets of the Corporation of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon the Corporation’s liquidation, dissolution, winding up, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of its creditors, marshaling of its assets or any bankruptcy, insolvency, debt restructuring or similar proceedings in connection with any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding involving the Corporation, all Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation shall first be paid in full (whether in cash, cash equivalents or any other manner reasonably satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness) before any payment is made by the Corporation on account of the principal of or Interest on the Securities or any other amounts which may be due on the Securities pursuant to the terms hereof or otherwise; and upon any such event, any payment by the Corporation, or distribution of assets of the Corporation of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, which the Securityholders or the Debenture Trustee would be entitled to receive from the Corporation, except for the provisions of this Article XV, shall be paid by the Corporation or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, or by the Securityholders or by the Debenture Trustee under the Indenture if received by them or it, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation (pro rata to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness held by such holders, as calculated by the Corporation) or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Indebtedness in full (whether in cash, cash equivalents or any other manner reasonably satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness) after giving effect to

64

any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to the Securityholders or to the Debenture Trustee.

In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of assets of the Corporation of any kind or character prohibited by the foregoing, whether in cash, property or securities, shall be received by the Debenture Trustee before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full (whether in cash, cash equivalents or any other manner reasonably satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness), such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, as calculated by the Corporation, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Indebtedness in full (whether in cash, cash equivalents or any other manner reasonably satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness), after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

The consolidation of the Corporation with, or the merger of the Corporation into, another Person or the liquidation or dissolution of the Corporation following the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of its property as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to another Person upon the terms and conditions provided for in Article X of this Indenture shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section 15.03 if such other Person shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease, comply with the conditions stated in Article X of this Indenture. Nothing in Section 15.02 or in this Section 15.03 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Debenture Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.06 of this Indenture.

SECTION 15.04.                                                           Subrogation.

Subject to the payment in full (whether in cash, cash equivalents or any other manner reasonably satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness) of all Senior Indebtedness, the rights of the Securityholders shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Corporation, as the case may be, applicable to such Senior Indebtedness until the principal of and Interest on the Securities shall be paid in full; and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which the Securityholders or the Debenture Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article XV, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Article XV to or for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness by Securityholders or the Debenture Trustee, shall, as between the Corporation, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, and the holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment by the Corporation to or on account of such Senior Indebtedness. It is understood that the provisions of this Article XV are and are intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of the holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the holders of such Senior Indebtedness on the other hand.

65

Nothing contained in this Article XV or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall impair, as between the Corporation, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, and the holders of the Securities, the obligation of the Corporation, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the holders of the Securities the principal of and Interest on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the holders of the Securities and creditors of the Corporation, as the case may be, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, as the case may be, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Debenture Trustee or the holder of any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon Default under the Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article XV of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Corporation, as the case may be, received upon the exercise of any such remedy.

Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Corporation referred to in this Article XV, the Debenture Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture, and the Securityholders shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidation trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Debenture Trustee or to the Securityholders, for the purposes of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Corporation, as the case may be, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article XV.

SECTION 15.05.                                                           Debenture Trustee to Effectuate Subordination.

Each Securityholder by such Securityholder’s acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Debenture Trustee on such Securityholder’s behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this Article XV and appoints the Debenture Trustee such Securityholder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

SECTION 15.06.                                                           Notice by the Corporation.

The Corporation shall give prompt written notice to a Responsible Officer of the Debenture Trustee of any fact known to the Corporation that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Debenture Trustee in respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article XV. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article XV or any other provision of this Indenture, the Debenture Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Debenture Trustee in respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article XV, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Debenture Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Corporation or a holder or holders of Senior Indebtedness or from any trustee therefor; and before the receipt of any such written notice, the Debenture Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture, shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Debenture Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section 15.06 at least three Business Days prior to the date upon

which by the terms hereof any money may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of or Interest on any Security), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Debenture Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the purposes for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary that may be received by it within three Business Days prior to such date.

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

Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Corporation referred to in this Article XV, the Debenture Trustee and the Securityholders shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution, winding-up or similar case or proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, custodian, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Debenture Trustee or to the Securityholders, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Corporation, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article XV.

SECTION 15.07.                                                           Rights of the Debenture Trustee; Holders of Senior Indebtedness.

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

With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, the Debenture Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article XV, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Debenture Trustee. The Debenture Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness and, subject to the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture, the

67

Debenture Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of such Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver to Securityholders, the Corporation or any other Person money or assets to which any holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article XV or otherwise.

Nothing in this Article XV shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Debenture Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.06.

SECTION 15.08.                                                           Subordination May Not Be Impaired.

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

Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Debenture Trustee or the Securityholders, without incurring responsibility to the Securityholders and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article XV or the obligations hereunder of the holders of the Securities to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, such Senior Indebtedness, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner such Senior Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which such Senior Indebtedness is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing such Senior Indebtedness; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of such Senior Indebtedness; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Corporation, as the case may be, and any other Person.

ARTICLE XVI
EXTENSION OF INTEREST PAYMENT PERIOD

SECTION 16.01.                                                           Extension of Interest Payment Period.

So long as the Corporation is not in Default in the payment of Interest on the Securities, the Corporation shall have the right, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Securities, to defer payments of Interest (other than Contingent Interest) by extending the interest payment period of such Securities for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarterly periods, including the first such quarterly period during such extension period (an “Extended Interest Payment Period”), during which Extended Interest Payment Period no Interest (other than Contingent Interest) shall be due and payable; provided that no Extended Interest Payment Period shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date or extend beyond the Maturity Date or, with respect to any Securities called for redemption, the Redemption Date with respect to such Securities. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Interest, the payment of which has been deferred because of the extension of the interest payment period pursuant to this Section 16.01,

68

will bear interest thereon at the Coupon Rate compounded quarterly for each quarterly period of the Extended Interest Payment Period (“Compounded Interest”). At the end of the Extended Interest Payment Period, the Corporation shall pay all Interest accrued and unpaid on the Securities, including any Additional Sums, Liquidated Damages and Compounded Interest (together, “Deferred Interest”) that shall be payable to the holders of the Securities in whose names the Securities are registered in the Security Register on the first record date preceding the end of the Extended Interest Payment Period. Before the termination of any Extended Interest Payment Period, the Corporation may further defer payments of Interest (other than Contingent Interest) by further extending such period, provided that such period, together with all such previous and further extensions within such Extended Interest Payment Period, shall not exceed 20 consecutive quarterly periods, including the first such quarterly period during such Extended Interest Payment Period, end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date or extend beyond the Maturity Date of the Securities or, with respect to any Securities called for redemption, the Redemption Date with respect to such Securities. Upon the termination of any Extended Interest Payment Period and the payment of all Deferred Interest then due, the Corporation may commence a new Extended Interest Payment Period, subject to the foregoing requirements. No Interest (other than Contingent Interest) shall be due and payable during an Extended Interest Payment Period, except at the end thereof, but the Corporation may prepay at any time all or any portion of the Interest accrued during an Extended Interest Payment Period.  The payment of Contingent Interest may not, under any circumstances, be subject to an Extended Interest Payment Period.

SECTION 16.02.                                                           Notice of Extension.

(a)                                  If the Property Trustee is the only registered holder of the Securities at the time the Corporation selects an Extended Interest Payment Period or extends an Extended Interest Payment Period, the Corporation shall give written notice to the Administrators, the Property Trustee and the Debenture Trustee of its selection of such Extended Interest Payment Period or its extension of an Extended Interest Payment Period at least five Business Days before the earlier of (i) the next date on which Distributions on the Preferred Securities are payable, or (ii) the date the Property Trustee is required to give notice of the record date or the payment date of such related Distributions for the first quarter of such Extended Interest Payment Period to any national stock exchange or other organization on which the Preferred Securities are listed or quoted, if any, or to holders of the Preferred Securities as of the record date or the payment date.

(b)                                 If the Property Trustee is not the only holder of the Securities at the time the Corporation selects an Extended Interest Payment Period or extends an Extended Interest Payment Period, the Corporation shall give the holders of the Securities and the Debenture Trustee written notice of its selection of such Extended Interest Payment Period or its extension of an Extended Interest Payment Period at least 10 Business Days before the earlier of (i) the Interest Payment Date for the first quarter of such Extended Interest Payment Period, or (ii) the date the Corporation is required to give notice of the record date or payment date of such related Interest payment for the first quarter of such Extended Interest Payment Period to any national stock exchange or other organization on which the Securities are listed or quoted, if any, or to Holders of the Securities as of the record date or the payment date.

69

(c)                                  The quarterly period in which any notice is given pursuant to paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section 16.02 shall be counted as one of the 20 quarterly periods permitted in the maximum Extended Interest Payment Period permitted under Section 16.01.

ARTICLE XVII
CONVERSION OF SECURITIES

SECTION 17.01.                                                           Conversion Rights.

(a)                                  Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article XVII, the Securities are convertible, at the option of the Securityholder, at any time before 5:00 pm, New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of repayment of such Securities, whether at stated maturity or upon redemption, into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion rate of 0.2500 shares of Common Stock for each $50.00 in aggregate principal amount of Securities (equal to an initial Conversion Price of $200.00 per share of Common Stock), subject to adjustment as described in this Article XVII (the “Conversion Rate”).  Subject to Section 17.01(b) and (c), a Securityholder may convert any portion of the principal amount of the Securities into that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (calculated as to each conversion to the nearest 1/100th of a share) obtained by multiplying (x) the quotient obtained by dividing the principal amount of the Securities to be converted by $50.00 by (y) the Conversion Rate. In case a Security or portion thereof is called for redemption, such conversion right in respect of the Security or portion so called shall expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the Business Day immediately preceding the corresponding redemption date, unless the Corporation defaults in making the payment due upon redemption.

(b)                                 Unless the Corporation shall have made the election set forth in Section 17.01(c), upon conversion of the Securities, the Corporation may satisfy its obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock in the manner set forth in this Section 17.01(b) by electing to pay cash to Holders of Securities surrendered for conversion in lieu of all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Securities.  Within two Business Days following the Conversion Date, the Corporation shall deliver to the Holder, through the Conversion Agent, written notice of whether such Securities shall be converted into Common Stock or paid in cash or a combination of cash and Common Stock, and if applicable, the percentage of each share of Common Stock that will be paid in cash in lieu of Common Stock.  The amount of cash payable in such event in respect of the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon conversion shall equal the product of (1) the percentage of each share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon conversion which the Corporation elects to pay in cash, (2) the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon conversion of such Security and (3) the average of the Closing Prices of the Common Stock for each of the 10 consecutive Trading Days commencing on the third Trading Day following the Conversion Date, appropriately adjusted to take into account the occurrence during such period of stock splits and similar events.  If the Corporation shall have notified the Holder that all of such Securities shall be converted into Common Stock or a combination of cash and Common Stock, the Corporation shall deliver to the Holder through the Conversion Agent, as promptly as practicable following the last Trading Day of the applicable 10 consecutive Trading Day period, a certificate for the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion and, if applicable, cash in lieu of

70

such Common Stock and cash in lieu of any fractional shares pursuant to Section 17.02(c).  The Corporation may not change its election with respect to the consideration to be delivered upon conversion of a Security once the Corporation has notified the Holder in accordance with this paragraph.

(c)                                  At any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Corporation shall have the option to unilaterally and irrevocably elect to settle its obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock with respect to Securities to be converted following such election in cash, and, if applicable, shares of Common Stock.  If the Corporation shall make this election, then if a Holder surrenders its Securities for conversion, such holder will receive, in respect of each $50.00 principal amount of Securities surrendered for conversion:

(i)                                     cash in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) $50.00 and (B) the Conversion Value (the “Required Cash Amount”); and

(ii)                                  if the Conversion Value is greater than $50.00, a number of shares of Common Stock (the “Remaining Shares”), equal to the sum of the Daily Share Amounts for each of the ten consecutive Trading Days in the Conversion Reference Period, subject to the right of the Corporation to deliver cash in lieu of all or a portion of such Remaining Shares as described below  (the amounts referred to in Section 17.02(c)(i) and this Section 17.02(c)(ii) so deliverable upon conversion of the Securities, the “Conversion Obligation”).

On any day prior to the first Trading Day of the applicable Conversion Reference Period, the Corporation may specify a percentage of the Daily Share Amount that will be settled in cash (the “Cash Percentage”) and will notify the Securityholder of such Cash Percentage through written notice to the Debenture Trustee (the “Cash Percentage Notice”). If the Corporation elects to specify a Cash Percentage, the amount of cash that the Corporation will deliver in respect of each Trading Day in the applicable Conversion Reference Period will equal the product of: (1) the Cash Percentage, (2) the Daily Share Amount for such Trading Day, and (3) the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock for such Trading Day (provided that after the consummation of a Change in Control in which the consideration is comprised entirely of cash, the amount used in this clause (3) will be the cash price per share of Common Stock received by holders of Common Stock in such Change in Control). The number of shares deliverable in respect of each Trading Day in the applicable Conversion Reference Period will be a percentage of the Daily Share Amount equal to 100% minus the Cash Percentage. If the Corporation does not specify a Cash Percentage by the start of the applicable Conversion Reference Period, the Corporation shall settle 100% of the Daily Share Amount for each Trading Day in the applicable Conversion Reference Period with shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that the Corporation will pay cash in lieu of fractional shares otherwise issuable upon conversion of such Security, pursuant to Section 17.02(c). The Corporation may, at its option, revoke any Cash Percentage Notice through written notice to the Debenture Trustee prior to the start of the applicable Conversion Reference Period.

In the event of a stock split, combination, dividend or any other event resulting in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Sections 17.03(a), (b), (c), (d) or (e), during the applicable Conversion Reference Period, appropriate adjustment to the equation for calculating

71

Conversion Value and Remaining Shares shall be made, as determined by the Board of Directors.

The cash and any shares of Common Stock due upon conversion of the Securities shall be delivered through the Conversion Agent as promptly as practicable following the end of the Conversion Reference Period applicable to the Securities being converted but in any event no later than three (3) Business Days following the last Trading Day of the applicable Conversion Reference Period.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Holder converts Securities “in connection with” a Change in Control in which the consideration for the Common Stock is comprised entirely of cash, the Conversion Obligation will be calculated based solely on the Stock Price (as such term is defined for purposes of Change in Control transactions involving solely cash consideration) with respect to the transaction and will be deemed to be an amount equal to the applicable Conversion Rate (including any adjustment thereto pursuant to Section 17.04) multiplied by such Stock Price.  In such event, the Conversion Obligation shall be determined and paid to Holders in cash on the third Trading Day following the surrender of the Securities for conversion.

SECTION 17.02.                                                           Conversion Procedures.

(a)                                  To convert all or a portion of the Securities, the Securityholder thereof shall deliver to the Conversion Agent an irrevocable Conversion Request setting forth the principal amount of Securities to be converted, together with the name or names, if other than the Securityholder, in which the shares of Common Stock should be issued upon conversion and, if such Securities are in certificated form, surrender to the Conversion Agent the Securities to be converted, duly endorsed or assigned to the Corporation or in blank. In addition, a holder of Preferred Securities may exercise its right under the Declaration to exchange such Preferred Securities for Securities which shall be converted into Common Stock by delivering to the Conversion Agent an irrevocable Conversion Request setting forth the information called for by the preceding sentence and directing the Conversion Agent (i) to exchange such Preferred Security for a portion of the Securities held by the Trust (at an exchange rate of $50.00 principal amount of Securities for each Preferred Security), and (ii) to immediately convert such Securities, on behalf of such Securityholder, into Common Stock pursuant to this Article XVII and, if such Preferred Securities are in certificated form, surrendering such Preferred Securities, duly endorsed or assigned to the Corporation or in blank. So long as any Preferred Securities are outstanding, the Trust shall not convert any Securities into shares of Common Stock except pursuant to a Conversion Request delivered to the Conversion Agent by a holder of Preferred Securities.

Except as described in this paragraph, no Interest will be payable on Securities surrendered for conversion with respect to any Interest Payment Date subsequent to the date of conversion and neither the Trust nor the Corporation shall make, or be required to make, any payment, allowance or adjustment for accumulated and unpaid Interest, whether or not in arrears, on Securities surrendered for conversion. If any Securities are surrendered for conversion between the period from 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on any record date through and including the related Interest Payment Date, the Securities surrendered for conversion must be accompanied by payment from the Securityholder in next day funds of an amount equal to the Interest payment which the registered holder on such record date is to receive, and such

72

Securityholder shall be entitled to receive the Interest payable on the subsequent Interest Payment Date on the portion of Securities to be converted, notwithstanding the conversion thereof prior to such Interest Payment Date. The previous sentence shall not apply in the case of Securities called for redemption on a Redemption Date between a record date and a related Interest Payment Date and in the case of any Securities surrendered for conversion after such Securities have been called for redemption during an Extended Interest Payment Period as described in the next sentence. If notice of redemption of Securities is mailed or otherwise given to Securityholders, then, if any Securityholder converts any Securities into Common Stock on any date on or after the date on which such notice of redemption is mailed or otherwise given, and if such date of conversion falls on any day from and including the first day of an Extended Interest Payment Period and on or prior to the Interest Payment Date upon which such Extended Interest Payment Period ends, such converting Securityholder shall be entitled to receive either (i) if the date of such conversion falls after a record date and on or prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, all accrued and unpaid Interest on such Securities to such Interest Payment Date, or (ii) if the date of such conversion does not fall on a date described in clause (i) above, all accrued and unpaid Interest on such Securities to the most recent Interest Payment Date prior to the date of such conversion (even though no Interest was paid on such date), which Interest shall, in either such case, be paid to such converting Securityholder unless another Securityholder was the record owner of such Securities as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the record date for which such Interest payment is made, in which case such Interest payment shall be paid to such other Securityholder. Except as otherwise set forth above in this paragraph, in the case of any Security which is converted, Interest (including Tax Original Issue Discount) which is payable after the date of conversion of such Security shall not be payable, and the Corporation shall not make nor be required to make any other payment, adjustment or allowance with respect to accrued but unpaid Interest (including Tax Original Issue Discount) on the Securities being converted, which shall be deemed to be paid in full through delivery of the Common Stock (together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of fractional shares). If any Security called for redemption is converted, any money deposited with the Debenture Trustee or with any paying agent or so segregated and held in trust for the redemption of such Security shall (subject to any right of the Securityholder) be paid to the Corporation upon Corporation Request or, if then held by the Corporation, shall be discharged from such trust.

Each conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day on which the Conversion Request and any other required deliveries were received (the “Conversion Date”) by the Conversion Agent from the Securityholder or from a holder of the Preferred Securities effecting a conversion thereof pursuant to its conversion rights under the Declaration, as the case may be. The person or persons entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as a record holder or holders of such Common Stock as of the Conversion Date.

(b)                                 Subject to any right of the Securityholder, the fair market value of the fixed number of shares of Common Stock into which the Securities are convertible (together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of fractional shares) shall be treated as issued, to the extent thereof, (i) first, in exchange for accrued and unpaid Interest (including Tax Original Issue Discount) on such Securities at the time of such conversion, and (ii) second, the balance, if any, of such fair market value of such Common Stock (and any cash payment) shall be treated as issued in exchange for the principal amount at maturity of the portion of Securities so converted.

73

(c)                                  No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued as a result of conversion.  Subject to the immediately following sentence, in lieu of any such fractional shares, the Corporation shall pay to the Conversion Agent a cash adjustment in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Closing Price of such fractional interest on the date on which the Securities or Preferred Securities, as the case may be, were duly surrendered to the Conversion Agent for conversion, or, if such day is not a Trading Day, on the next Trading Day, and the Conversion Agent in turn shall make such payment, if any, to the Securityholder or the holder of the Preferred Securities so converted.  In the event that the conversion obligation is settled in accordance with the provisions of Section 17.01(c), a Holder of a Security otherwise entitled to a fractional share will receive cash equal to the applicable portion of the arithmetic average of the Volume Weighted Average price of Common Stock for each of the ten consecutive Trading Days of the Conversion Reference Period.

(d)                                 In the event of the conversion of any Security in part only, a new Security or Securities for the unconverted portion thereof shall be issued in the name of the Securityholder thereof upon the cancellation thereof in accordance with Section 2.9.

(e)                                  In effecting the conversion transactions described in this Section 17.02, the Conversion Agent is acting as agent of the holders of Preferred Securities (in the exchange of Preferred Securities for Securities) and as agent of the Securityholders (in the conversion of Securities into Common Stock), as the case may be, directing it to effect such conversion transactions. The Conversion Agent is hereby authorized (i) to exchange Preferred Securities for Securities held by the Trust from time to time in connection with the conversion of such Preferred Securities in accordance with this Article XVII, and (ii) to convert all or a portion of the Securities into Common Stock and thereupon to deliver such shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of this Article XVII and to deliver to the Trust a new Security or Securities for any resulting unconverted principal amount.

(f)                                    Any certificates representing shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities shall bear any legend required by Section 2.06.

(g)                                 The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for issuance upon the conversion of the Securities, free from any preemptive or other similar rights, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be issuable upon the conversion of all the Securities then outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall be entitled to deliver upon conversion of Securities, shares of Common Stock reacquired and held in the treasury of the Corporation (in lieu of the issuance of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock), so long as any such treasury shares are free and clear of all liens, charges, security interests or encumbrances. Any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Securities shall be duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable. The Debenture Trustee shall deliver the shares of Common Stock received upon conversion of the Securities to the converting Securityholder free and clear of all liens, charges, security interests and encumbrances, except for United States withholding taxes.

74

SECTION 17.03.                                                           Conversion Rate Adjustments.

The Conversion Rate shall be subject to adjustment (without duplication) from time to time as follows:

(a)                                  In case the Corporation shall, while any of the Securities are outstanding,

(i)                                     pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock payable in shares of its Common Stock,

(ii)                                  subdivide its shares of Common Stock,

(iii)                               combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or

(iv)                              issue by recapitalization or reclassification of its shares of Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Corporation,

then the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such action shall be adjusted so that the Holder of a Security thereafter converted may receive the number of shares of Capital Stock of the Corporation which such Holder would have owned immediately following such action if such Holder had converted the Security immediately prior to such action; provided, however, that no adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 17.03(a) as a result of any transaction which results in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate in accordance with Section 17.04.

The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.

If after an adjustment a Holder of a Security upon conversion of such Security may receive shares of two or more classes of Capital Stock of the Corporation, the Conversion Rate shall thereafter be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of an action taken with respect to any such class of Capital Stock as is contemplated by this Article XVII with respect to the Common Stock, on terms comparable to those applicable to Common Stock in this Article XVII.

(b)                                 In case the Corporation shall, while any of the Securities are outstanding, distribute any rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock entitling them, for a period expiring within 60 days after the record date for such distribution, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into such shares at a price per share less than (or having a Conversion Price per share less than) the Average Closing Price, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula:

where:

75

R’= the adjusted Conversion Rate.

R = the current Conversion Rate.

O =      the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date for the distribution to which this Section 17.03(b) is being applied.

N =      the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered pursuant to the distribution.

P =        the offering price per share of the additional shares.

M = the Average Closing Price, minus, in the case of (i) a distribution to which Section 17.03(a)(iv) applies or (ii) a distribution to which Section 17.03(c) applies, for which, in each case, (x) the record date shall occur on or before the record date for the distribution to which this Section 17.03(b) applies and (y) the Ex-Dividend Time shall occur on or after the date of the first public announcement for the distribution to which this Section 17.03(b) applies, the fair market value (on the record date for the distribution to which this Section 17.03(b) applies) of the

(1)                                  Capital Stock of the Corporation distributed in respect of each share of Common Stock in such Section 17.03(a)(iv) distribution and

(2)                                  assets of the Corporation or debt securities or any rights, warrants or options to purchase securities of the Corporation distributed in respect of each share of Common Stock in such Section 17.03(c) distribution.

The Board of Directors shall determine fair market values for the purposes of this Section 17.03(b).

In the event the Corporation makes a distribution pursuant to this Section 17.03(b) which has a per share value equal to more than 15% of the Closing Price of shares of Common Stock on the day preceding the declaration date for such distribution, the Corporation will be required to give notice to the holders of Securities at least 20 days prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive the rights, warrants or options to which this Section 17.03(b) applies. If all of the shares of Common Stock subject to such rights, warrants or options have not been issued when such rights, warrants or options expire, then the Conversion Rate shall promptly be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment upon the issuance of such rights, warrants or options been made on the basis of the actual number of shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of such rights, warrants or options.

76

No adjustment shall be made under this Section 17.03(b) if the application of the formula stated above in this Section 17.03(b) would result in a value of R’ that is equal to or less than the value of R.

(c)                                  (i)                                     In case the Corporation shall, while any of the Securities are outstanding, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock any of its assets (including shares of any Subsidiary or business unit of the Corporation, but excluding distributions of Capital Stock or equity interests referred to in Section 17.03(c)(ii)), or debt securities or any rights, warrants or options to purchase securities of the Corporation (including securities or cash, but excluding (x) distributions of Capital Stock referred to in Section 17.03(a) and distributions of rights, warrants or options referred to in Section 17.03(b) and (y) cash dividends or other cash distributions referred to in Section 17.03(d)), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted, subject to the provisions of Section 17.03(c)(iii), in accordance with the formula:

where:

R’ = the adjusted Conversion Rate.

R = the current Conversion Rate.

M =          the Average Closing Price, minus, in the case of a distribution to which Section 17.03(a)(iv) applies, for which (i) the record date shall occur on or before the record date for the distribution to which this Section 17.03(c)(i) applies and (ii) the Ex-Dividend Time shall occur on or after the date of the Time of Determination for the distribution to which this Section 17.03(c)(i) applies, the fair market value (on the record date for the distribution to which this Section 17.03(c)(i) applies) of any Capital Stock of the Corporation distributed in respect of each share of Common Stock in such Section 17.03(a)(iv) distribution.

F =               the fair market value (on the record date for the distribution to which this Section 17.03(c)(i) applies) of the assets, securities, rights, warrants or options to be distributed in respect of each share of Common Stock in the distribution to which this Section 17.03(c)(i) is being applied (including, in the case of cash dividends or other cash distributions giving rise to an adjustment, all such cash distributed concurrently).

The Board of Directors shall determine fair market values for the purposes of this Section 17.03(c)(i).

The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive the distribution to which this Section 17.03(c)(i) applies.

(ii)                                  In case the Corporation shall, while any of the Securities are outstanding, pay a dividend or make a distribution to all holders of its Common Stock consisting of Capital Stock of

77

any class or series, or similar equity interests, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Corporation, then the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula:

R’ = R x (1 + F/M)

R’ = the adjusted Conversion Rate.

R = the current Conversion Rate.

M =        the average of the Post-Distribution Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 Trading Days commencing on and including the fifth Trading Day after the date on which “ex-dividend trading” commences for such dividend or distribution on the principal United States exchange or market which such securities are then listed or quoted (the “Ex-Dividend Date”).

F =               the fair market value of the securities distributed in respect of each share of Common Stock to which this Section 17.03(c)(ii) shall apply which shall equal the number of securities distributed in respect of each share of Common Stock multiplied by the average of the Post-Distribution Prices of those securities distributed for the 10 Trading Days commencing on and including the fifth Trading Day after the Ex-Dividend Date.

“Post-Distribution Price” of Capital Stock or any similar equity interest on any date means the closing per unit sale price (or, if no closing sale price is reported, the average of the bid and ask prices or, if more than one in either case, the average of the average bid and the average ask prices) on such date for trading of such units on a “when issued” basis without due bills (or similar concept) as reported in the composite transactions for the principal United States securities exchange on which such Capital Stock or equity interest is traded or, if the Capital Stock or equity interest, as the case may be, is not listed on a United States national or regional securities exchange, as reported by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated; provided that if on any date such units have not traded on a “when issued” basis, the Post-Distribution Price shall be the closing per unit sale price (or, if no closing sale price is reported, the average of the bid and ask prices or, if more than one in either case, the average of the average bid and the average ask prices) on such date for trading of such units on a “regular way” basis without due bills (or similar concept) as reported in the composite transactions for the principal United States securities exchange on which such Capital Stock or equity interest is traded or, if the Capital Stock or equity interest, as the case may be, is not listed on a United States national or regional securities exchange, as reported by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated. In the absence of such quotation, the Corporation shall be entitled to determine the Post-Distribution Price on the basis of such quotations which reflect the post-distribution value of the Capital Stock or equity interests as it considers appropriate.

(iii)                               In the event that, with respect to any distribution to which Section 17.03(c)(i) would otherwise apply, the difference between “M-F” as defined in the formula set forth in Section 17.03(c)(i) is less than $1.00 or “F” is equal to or greater than “M”, then the adjustment provided by Section 17.03(c)(i) shall not be made.

78

(iv)                              In the event the Corporation makes a distribution pursuant to this Section 17.03(c) which has a per share value equal to more than 15% of the Closing Price of shares of Common Stock on the day preceding the declaration date for such distribution, the Corporation will be required to give notice to the holders of Securities at least 20 days prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

(d)                                 In case the Corporation shall, while any of the Securities are outstanding, distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any dividend or other distribution paid exclusively in cash (excluding any dividend or distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula:

where,

R’ = the adjusted Conversion Rate;

R = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Time of Determination;

M =        the average of the Closing Prices of the Common Stock for the five consecutive Trading Days prior to the Trading Day immediately preceding the Time of Determination; and

C =              the amount in cash per share the Corporation distributes to holders of the Common Stock (and for which no adjustment has been made).

(e)                                  In case the Corporation shall, while any of the Securities are outstanding, make a payment of cash or other consideration to holders of Common Stock in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer, other than an odd-lot offer, for the Common Stock, and the value of the aggregate cash and other consideration paid for such Common Stock, expressed as an amount per share of Common Stock validly tendered or exchanged pursuant to such tender offer or exchange offer, exceeds the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately following the last time (the “Expiration Time”) on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to the tender or exchange offer, then the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula:

where,

R = the Conversion Rate in effect on the Expiration Time;

R’ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Expiration Time;

79

F =               the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration paid or payable for shares of Common Stock validly tendered or exchanged and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the “Purchased Shares”);

O =             the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Time less any Purchased Shares;

O’ =         the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Time, including any Purchased Shares; and

P = the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time.

Such increase (if any) shall become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Time. In the event that the Corporation is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such tender offer, but the Corporation is prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made. If the application of this Section 17.03(e) to any tender or exchange offer would result in a decrease in the Conversion Rate, no adjustment shall be made for such tender or exchange offer under this Section 17.03(e).

(f)                                    The Corporation may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, in addition to those required by Subsections (a) through (e), as it considers to be advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock (or rights to acquire stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes. The Corporation from time to time may, to the extent permitted by law,  increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least 20 days upon notice by the Corporation of at least 15 days, the increase is irrevocable during the period, and the Board of Directors shall have made a determination that such increase would be in the best interest of the Corporation, which determination shall be conclusive. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall mail to Securityholders of record a notice of the increase at least fifteen days prior to the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect, and such notice shall state the increased Conversion Rate and the period it shall be in effect.

(g)                                 Anything in this Section 17.03 to the contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment of the Conversion Rate will be made upon: (a) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities of the Corporation and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any such plan, or (b) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights pursuant to any present or future employee benefit plan or program, or (c) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or any exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the date on which the Securities are first issued, or (d) the issuance of rights under any shareholder rights plan, or (e) a change in the par value or a change to no par value of the Common Stock. To the extent the

80

Securities become convertible into cash, no adjustments need be made thereafter as to the cash and interest will not accrue on the cash.

(h)                                 No adjustment in the Conversion Rate shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Conversion Rate; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 17.03(h) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in determining whether any subsequent adjustment shall be required. The adjusted Conversion Rate will be rounded to four decimal places.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, all adjustments not previously made shall have effect with respect to any conversion of the Securities that have been called for redemption.

(i)                                     If any action would require adjustment of the Conversion Rate pursuant to more than one of the provisions described above, only one adjustment shall be made and such adjustment shall be the amount of adjustment that has the highest absolute value to the Securityholders.

(j)                                     Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Conversion Rate exceed 0.3824 (as adjusted pursuant to Sections 17.03(a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) above).

SECTION 17.04.                                                           Conversion Rate Adjustments Upon Change in Control.

(a)                                  If a Change in Control occurs prior to October 15, 2017 and a Holder elects to convert its Securities in connection with such Change in Control, the Corporation will increase the applicable Conversion Rate for the Securities surrendered for conversion by a number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Make-Whole Shares”), as described in this Section 17.04. A conversion of Securities will be deemed for the purposes of this Section 17.04 to be “in connection with” a Change in Control transaction if the notice of conversion of the Securities is received by the Conversion Agent from and including the date that is ten Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date of the Change in Control, up to and including the Trading Day prior to the related purchase date.

The number of Make-Whole Shares will be determined by reference to the table below and is based on the date which such Change in Control transaction becomes effective (the “Change in Control Effective Date”) and the price (the “Stock Price”) paid per share of Common Stock in such Change in Control transaction. If the holders of Common Stock receive only cash in the Change in Control transaction, the Stock Price shall be the cash amount paid per share of Common Stock. Otherwise, the Stock Price shall be the average of the Closing Prices of the Common Stock on the ten consecutive Trading Days up to but excluding the Change in Control Effective Date.

The Stock Prices set forth in the first column of the table below will be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Rate is adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices will equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the applicable Conversion Rate immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the applicable Conversion Rate as so adjusted.  In addition, the number of additional Make-Whole Shares shall be subject to

81

adjustment in the same manner as the Conversion Rate is in accordance with the provisions of Section 17.03(a)-(e).

If the exact Stock Prices and effective dates are not set forth in the table, then:

(i)                                     if the Stock Price is between two Stock Price amounts in the table or the effective date is between two dates in the table, the Make-Whole Shares issued upon conversion of the Securities will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Make-Whole Shares set forth for the higher and lower Stock Price amounts and the two dates in the table, as applicable, based on a 365-day year,

(ii)                                  if the Stock Price exceeds $300.00 per share, subject to adjustment as set forth herein, no Make-Whole Shares will be issued upon conversion of the Securities; and

(iii)                               if the Stock Price is less than $130.77 per share, subject to adjustment as set forth herein, no Make-Whole Shares will be issued upon conversion of the Securities.

The adjustment to the Conversion Rate set forth in this Section 17.04(a) shall be subject to the provisions of Section 17.03(j).

(b)                                 A “Change in Control” shall be deemed to have occurred at such time as either of the following events shall occur:

(i)                                     There shall be consummated any consolidation or merger of the Corporation pursuant to which the Common Stock would be converted into cash, securities or other property, in each case other than a consolidation or merger of the Corporation in which the holders of Common Stock immediately prior to the consolidation or merger have, directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the total voting

82

power in the aggregate of all classes of capital stock of the continuing or surviving corporation immediately after such consolidation or merger; or

(ii)                                  A report on Schedule 13D or TO (or any successor schedule, form or report) pursuant to the Exchange Act shall be filed which discloses that any person, including such person’s Affiliates or Associates (for these purposes only, as the term “person” is used in Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) has become the beneficial owner (as the term “beneficial owner” is defined under Rule 13d-3 or any successor rule or regulation promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 50% or more of the voting power of the Common Stock or other capital stock into which the Common Stock is reclassified or changed; provided, however, that a person shall not be deemed to be a beneficial owner of, or to own beneficially, (A) any securities tendered pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made by or on behalf of such person or any such person’s Affiliates or Associates until such tendered securities are accepted for purchase or exchange thereunder, or (B) any securities if such beneficial ownership (1) arises solely as a result of a revocable proxy delivered in response to a proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, and (2) is not also then reportable on Schedule 13D (or any successor schedule) under the Exchange Act.

(c)                                  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 17.04(b),

(i)                                     a Change in Control shall not be deemed to have occurred by virtue of the Corporation, any subsidiary, any employee stock ownership plan or any other employee benefit plan of the Corporation or any subsidiary, or any person holding the Common Stock for or pursuant to the terms of any such employee benefit plan, filing or becoming obligated to file a report under or in response to Schedule 13D or Schedule TO (or any successor schedule, form or report) under the Exchange Act disclosing beneficial ownership by it of shares of the Common Stock, whether in excess of 50% or otherwise; and

(ii)                                  it will not constitute a Change in Control if 100% of the consideration for the Common Stock (excluding cash payments for fractional shares and cash payments made in respect of dissenters’ appraisal rights and cash payment of the required cash payment, if any) in the transaction or transactions constituting the Change in Control consists of common stock traded on a United States national securities exchange, or which will be so traded or quoted when issued or exchanged in connection with the Change in Control, and as a result of such transaction or transactions the Securities become convertible solely into such common stock.

SECTION 17.05.                                                           Share Exchange, Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets.

In the case of the following events (each, a “business combination”):

(1)                                  Any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock, other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination;

83

(2)                                  A consolidation, merger or binding share exchange of the Corporation with another Person; or

(3)                                  A sale, conveyance or lease to another corporation of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s property and assets in each case as a result of which holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock,

then the Corporation or the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall execute a supplemental indenture which shall provide that the Holders of the Securities then outstanding will be entitled thereafter to convert Securities into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) which they would have owned or been entitled to receive upon such business combination had such Securities been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to such business combination. In the event holders of Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in such business combination, the Corporation will make adequate provision whereby the Holders of the Securities shall have a reasonable opportunity to determine the form of consideration into which all of the Securities, treated as a single class, shall be convertible from and after the effective date of such business combination. Such determination shall be based on the weighted average of elections made by Holders of the Securities who participate in such determination, shall be subject to any limitations to which all of the holders of Common Stock are subject, such as pro-rata reductions applicable to any portion of the consideration payable in such business combination and shall be conducted in such a manner as to be completed by the date which is the earliest of (a) the deadline for elections to be made by holders of Common Stock, and (b) two Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date. The Corporation will provide notice of the opportunity to determine the form of such consideration, as well as notice of the determination made by Holders of the Securities (and the weighted average of elections), by issuing a press release, or providing other appropriate notice, and by providing a copy of such notice to the Debenture Trustee. In the event the effective date is delayed beyond the initially anticipated effective date, Holders of the Securities shall be given the opportunity to make subsequent similar determinations in regard to such delayed effective date. The Corporation may not become a party to any such transaction unless its terms are materially consistent with the provisions of this Section 17.05. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a Holder of Securities to convert its Securities into shares of Common Stock prior to the effective date of the business combination.

The Corporation shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each holder, at the address of such holder as it appears on the security Register, within 20 days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture.

The above provisions of this Section 17.05 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, mergers, consolidations, statutory share exchanges, combinations, sales and conveyances.

84

If this Section 17.05 applies to any event or occurrence, Section 17.03 shall not apply to such event or occurrence.

SECTION 17.06.                                                           Notice of Adjustments of Conversion Rate.

Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided:

(a)                                  The Corporation shall compute the adjusted Conversion Rate and shall prepare an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based, and such certificate shall forthwith be filed with the Debenture Trustee, the Conversion Agent and the transfer agent for the Preferred Securities and the Securities; and

(b)                                 A notice stating that the Conversion Rate has been adjusted and setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate shall as soon as practicable be mailed by the Corporation to all record holders of Preferred Securities and the Securities at their last addresses as they appear upon the stock transfer books of the Corporation and the Trust and the Corporation shall issue a press release and publish such determination on the Corporation’s website.

SECTION 17.07.                                                           Prior Notice of Certain Events.

In case the Corporation takes any action which would require an adjustment to the Conversion Rate, there occurs any event to which the provisions of Section 17.05 would apply or there is a dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation, then the Corporation shall (1) if any Preferred Securities are outstanding, cause to be filed with the Property Trustee and the transfer agent for the Preferred Securities, and shall cause to be mailed to the holders of record of the Preferred Securities, at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the securities register of the Trust, or (2) shall cause to be mailed to all Securityholders at their last addresses as they shall appear in the Security Register, at least fifteen days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice briefly describing the event and stating the proposed record of effective date.  No failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice).

SECTION 17.08.                                                           Debenture Trustee Not Responsible for Determining Conversion Rate or Adjustments.

Neither the Debenture Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Securityholder to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Conversion Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same. Neither the Debenture Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind of account) of any shares of Common Stock or of any securities or property, which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Security; and neither the Debenture Trustee nor any Conversion Agent makes any representation with respect thereto. Neither the Debenture Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Corporation to make any cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock certificates or other securities or property upon the surrender of any Security for

85

the purpose of conversion, or to comply with any of the covenants of the Corporation contained in Article III or this Article XVII.

ARTICLE XVIII
CONTINGENT INTEREST

SECTION 18.01.                                                           Contingent Interest.

Subject to Section 18.02, the Corporation shall make Contingent Interest payments to the Holders during any quarterly period from January 16 to April 15, April 16 to July 15, July 16 to October 15 and October 16 to January 15 (each a “Quarterly Period”), commencing with the Quarterly Period commencing October 16, 2012, if, but only if, the average of the Security Market Prices for the Preferred Securities, or, following any Dissolution Event, for the $50.00 principal amount of Securities for the ten Trading Days ending on the third Trading Day immediately preceding the first day of the applicable Quarterly Period equals 130% or more of the stated liquidation amount per Preferred Security of $50.00 or $50.00 principal amount of Securities. During any Quarterly Period when Contingent Interest is payable pursuant to this Section 18.01, each Contingent Interest payment due and payable per $50.00 principal amount of the Securities in respect of any applicable Quarterly Period, shall equal the annual rate of 0.25% of the average of the Security Market Prices for the ten Trading Day measuring period referred to in the immediately preceding sentence. Contingent Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

“Security Market Price” of the Preferred Securities (or of the Securities, following any Dissolution Event) on any date of determination means the average of the secondary market bid quotations per Preferred Security (or per $50.00 principal amount of Securities following any Dissolution Event) obtained by the Bid Solicitation Agent for 50,000 Preferred Securities (or $2,500,000 principal amount of Securities following any Dissolution Event) at approximately 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date of determination from three independent nationally recognized securities dealers selected by the Corporation; provided that if three such bids cannot reasonably be obtained by the Bid Solicitation Agent, but two such bids are obtained, then the average of the two bids shall be used, and if only one such bid can reasonably be obtained by the Bid Solicitation Agent, that one bid shall be used. If the Bid Solicitation Agent cannot reasonably obtain at least one bid for 50,000 Preferred Securities (or $2,500,000 principal amount of Securities following any Dissolution Event) from a nationally recognized securities dealer or in the Corporation’s reasonable judgment the bid quotations are not indicative of the secondary market value of the Preferred Securities (or of the Securities, following any Dissolution Event), then the Security Market Price of the Preferred Securities (or of the Securities, following any Dissolution Event) will equal (a) the then applicable Conversion Rate of the Securities multiplied by (b) the average Closing Price of the Common Stock on the ten Trading Days ending on such determination date.

SECTION 18.02.                                                           Payment of Contingent Interest; Contingent Interest Rights Preserved.

If payable, Contingent Interest on a Security shall be paid to the Person who is the Holder of that Security on the 14th day preceding the last day of the relevant Quarterly Period (the “Contingent Interest Record Date”). Such payments shall be paid on the last day of the Quarterly

86

Period (in each case, a “Contingent Interest Payment Date”). Except as provided in Section 2.03, each payment of Contingent Interest on any Security shall be paid (A) if such Security is held in the form of a Global Security, in same-day funds by transfer to an account maintained by the payee located inside the United States, or (B) if such Security is held in certificated form, by check, mailed to the address of such Holder as set forth in the Security Register. In the case of a Global Security, interest payable on any Contingent Interest Payment Date will be paid to the Depositary for the purpose of permitting the Depositary to credit the interest received by it in respect of such Global Security to the accounts of the beneficial owners thereof. Upon determination that Holders of Securities will be entitled to receive Contingent Interest during a Quarterly Period, the Corporation will issue a press release and use its reasonable best efforts to post such information on its website or through such other public medium as the Corporation may use at the time.

SECTION 18.03.                                                           Bid Solicitation Agent.

The Corporation shall appoint a bid solicitation agent (the “Bid Solicitation Agent”) to act pursuant to Section 18.01 when directed by the Corporation in writing to do so. The Corporation may change the Bid Solicitation Agent at its discretion; provided, however, that the Bid Solicitation Agent may not be an Affiliate of the Corporation. The Bid Solicitation Agent shall initially be the Property Trustee.

Affiliated Managers Group, Inc.

5.15% JUNIOR SUBORDINATED CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE
DUE October 15, 2037

Affiliated Managers Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to LaSalle Bank National Association as Property Trustee for AMG Capital Trust II or registered assigns, the principal sum of  Five Hundred Million Ten Thousand Dollars ($500,010,000) on October 15, 2037 (the “Maturity Date”), unless previously redeemed, repurchased or converted, and to pay interest on the outstanding principal amount hereof from October 17, 2007, or from the most recent interest payment date (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”) to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly (subject to deferral as set forth herein) in arrears on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing January 15, 2008, at the rate of 5.15% per annum until the principal hereof shall have become due and payable, and on any overdue principal and (without duplication and to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue installment of Interest at the same rate per annum compounded quarterly, including any Liquidated Damages Amount (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), Contingent Interest and any Additional Sums. The amount of Interest, if any, payable on any Interest Payment Date or Contingent Interest Payment Date, as the case may be, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. In the event that any date on which the principal of or Interest on this Security is payable is not a Business Day, then the payment 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), except that if such next succeeding Business Day falls in the next calendar year, then such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date. Pursuant to the Indenture, in certain circumstances the Corporation will be required to pay Additional Sums, Liquidated Damages Amount, Compounded Interest and Contingent Interest with respect to this Security.

The Interest installment so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities, as defined in said Indenture) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest installment, which shall be as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the first day of the month, whether or not a Business Day, in the month in which the relevant Interest Payment Date occurs. Any such Interest installment not punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders on such regular record date and shall be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a special record date to be fixed by the Debenture Trustee for the payment of such defaulted Interest, notice whereof shall be given to the holders of Securities not less than 10 days prior to such special record date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any

A-4

securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

The principal of and Interest on this Security shall be payable at the office or agency of the Debenture Trustee maintained for that purpose in any coin or currency of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that, payment of Interest may be made at the option of the Corporation by (i) check mailed to the holder at such address as shall appear in the Security Register or (ii) by transfer to an account maintained by the Person entitled thereto, provided that proper written transfer instructions have been received by the relevant record date; provided, further, Contingent Interest, if any, shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of Section 18.02 of the Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Holder of this Security is the Property Trustee, the payment of the principal of and Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) on this Security will be made at such place and to such account as may be designated by the Property Trustee.

The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, and this Security is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each holder of this Security, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Debenture Trustee on his or her behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination so provided and (c) appoints the Debenture Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each holder hereof, by his or her acceptance hereof, hereby waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination provisions contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions.

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

By its acceptance of this Security, the Securityholder agrees (i) to treat the Security as indebtedness of the Corporation for United States federal income tax purposes that is subject to United States Treasury Regulation section 1.1275-4(b), and (ii) to treat the comparable yield and projected payment schedule as determined by the Corporation as “reasonable” for purposes of Treasury Regulation section 1.1275-4(b).

The provisions of this Security are continued on the reverse side hereof and such provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

REVERSE OF SECURITY

This Security is one of the Securities of the Corporation (herein sometimes referred to as the “Securities”), specified in the Indenture, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of October 17, 2007 (the “Indenture”), duly executed and delivered between the Corporation and LaSalle Bank National Association as Debenture Trustee (the “Debenture Trustee”), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Debenture Trustee, the Corporation and the holders of the Securities. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Indenture.

1.             Redemption. Upon the occurrence and continuation of a Special Event, the Corporation shall have the right, at any time following the occurrence of such Special Event, to redeem this Security in whole (but not in part) at the Redemption Price.  In addition, the Corporation shall have the right to redeem this Security, in whole at any time or, in part from time to time, on or after October 15, 2012 at the Redemption Price if the Closing Price of the Corporation’s Common Stock for 20 Trading Days in a period of 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day prior to the mailing of the notice of redemption exceeds 130% of the then prevailing Conversion Price.  This Security shall not otherwise be subject to redemption at the option of the Corporation.

The Redemption Price shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of such redemption or at such earlier time as the Corporation determines, provided, that the Corporation shall deposit with the Debenture Trustee an amount sufficient to pay the Redemption Price by 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the date such Redemption Price is to be paid. Any redemption pursuant to this paragraph will be made upon not less than 20 days nor more than 60 days notice. If the Securities are only partially redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to an optional redemption described in the preceding paragraph, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected on a pro rata basis not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption from the outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption, provided, however, that with respect to Securityholders that would be required to hold Securities with an aggregate principal amount of less than $5,000 but more than an aggregate principal amount of zero as a result of such pro rata redemption, the Corporation shall redeem Securities of each such Securityholder so that after such redemption such Securityholder shall hold Securities either with an aggregate principal amount of at least $5,000 or such Securityholder no longer holds any Securities and shall use such method (including, without limitation, by lot) as the Corporation shall deem fair and appropriate, provided, further, that any such proration may be made on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of Securities held by each Securityholder thereof and may be made by making such adjustments as the Corporation deems fair and appropriate in order that only Securities in denominations of $50.00 or integral multiples thereof shall be redeemed.

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities for the portion hereof that has not been redeemed will be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

A-7

2.             Conversion. (a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of Article XVII of the Indenture, the Securities are convertible, at the option of the Securityholder, at any time before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of repayment of such Securities, whether at stated maturity or upon redemption, into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion rate of 0.2500 shares of Common Stock for each $50.00 in aggregate principal amount of Securities (equal to an initial Conversion Price of $200.00 per share of Common Stock), subject to adjustment as described in the Indenture. A Securityholder may convert any portion of the principal amount of the Securities into that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (calculated as to each conversion to the nearest 1/100th of a share) in the manner prescribed by the Indenture.  Upon conversion of the Securities, the Corporation may satisfy its obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock by delivering cash and/or shares of Common Stock, all as set forth in Article XVII of the Indenture.  In case a Security or portion thereof is called for redemption, such conversion right in respect of the Security or portion so called shall expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the Business Day immediately preceding the corresponding redemption date, unless the Corporation defaults in making the payment due upon redemption.

(b)           To convert all or a portion of the Securities, the Securityholder thereof shall deliver to the Conversion Agent an irrevocable Conversion Request setting forth the principal amount of Securities to be converted, together with the name or names, if other than the Securityholder, in which the shares of Common Stock should be issued upon conversion and, if such Securities are in certificated form, surrender to the Conversion Agent the Securities to be converted, duly endorsed or assigned to the Corporation or in blank. In addition, a holder of Preferred Securities may exercise its right under the Declaration to exchange such Preferred Securities for Securities which shall be converted into Common Stock by delivering to the Conversion Agent an irrevocable Conversion Request setting forth the information called for by the preceding sentence and directing the Conversion Agent (i) to exchange such Preferred Security for a portion of the Securities held by the Trust (at an exchange rate of $50.00 principal amount of Securities for each Preferred Security), and (ii) to immediately convert such Securities, on behalf of such Securityholder, into Common Stock pursuant to Article XVII of the Indenture and, if such Preferred Securities are in certificated form, surrendering such Preferred Securities, duly endorsed or assigned to the Corporation or in blank.

(c)           Except as described in this paragraph, no Interest will be payable on Securities surrendered for conversion with respect to any Interest Payment Date subsequent to the date of conversion and neither the Trust nor the Corporation shall make, or be required to make, any payment, allowance or adjustment for accumulated and unpaid Interest, whether or not in arrears, on Securities surrendered for conversion. If any Securities are surrendered for conversion between the period from 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on any record date through and including the related Interest Payment Date, the Securities surrendered for conversion must be accompanied by payment in next day funds of an amount equal to the Interest payment which the registered holder on such record date is to receive, and such Securityholder shall be entitled to receive the Interest payable on the subsequent Interest Payment Date on the portion of Securities to be converted, notwithstanding the conversion thereof prior to such Interest Payment Date. The previous sentence shall not apply in the case of Securities called for redemption on a redemption date between a record date and a related Interest Payment Date and in the case of any Securities surrendered for conversion after such Securities have been called for redemption

A-8

during an Extended Interest Payment Period, in which event Interest with respect to such Securities shall be payable to the extent provided in the Indenture. Except as otherwise set forth above in this paragraph, in the case of any Security which is converted, Interest (including Tax Original Issue Discount) which is payable after the date of conversion of such Security shall not be payable, and the Corporation shall not make nor be required to make any other payment, adjustment or allowance with respect to accrued but unpaid Interest (including Tax Original Issue Discount) on the Securities being converted, which shall be deemed to be paid in full through delivery of the Common Stock (together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of fractional shares).

(d)           Subject to any right of the Securityholder, the fair market value of the fixed number of shares of Common Stock into which the Securities are convertible (together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of fractional shares) shall be treated as issued, to the extent thereof, (i) first, in exchange for accrued and unpaid Interest (including Tax Original Issue Discount) on such Securities at the time of such conversion, and (ii) second, the balance, if any, of such fair market value of such Common Stock (and any cash payment) shall be treated as issued in exchange for the principal amount at maturity of the portion of Securities so converted.

(e)           No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued as a result of conversion, but in lieu thereof, the Corporation shall pay to the Conversion Agent a cash adjustment in the amount determined in accordance with the provisions of Article XVII of the Indenture.

3.             Contingent Interest.  Subject to the conditions of the Indenture and this Security, the Corporation shall pay Contingent Interest to the Holders during any Quarterly Period, with the initial Quarterly Period commencing on October 16, 2012, if, but only if, the average of the Security Market Prices of the Preferred Securities, or, following any Dissolution Event, of the Securities for the ten Trading Days ending on the third Trading Day immediately preceding the first day of the applicable Quarterly Period equals 130% or more of the liquidation amount of $50.00 per Preferred Security or $50.00 principal amount of Securities.  The amount of Contingent Interest payable per $50.00 principal amount of Securities in respect of any Quarterly Period shall equal the annual rate of 0.25% of the average of the Security Market Prices for the ten Trading Day measuring period.

4.             Repurchase. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, Holders shall have the right to require the Corporation to repurchase all or any portion of their Securities that is an integral multiple of $50.00 at a Repurchase Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Repurchase Date.  To exercise the Repurchase Right following a Change in Control, the Securityholder shall be required to deliver an irrevocable Repurchase Notice and otherwise comply with the applicable provisions of Article XIII of the Indenture.  In addition, a holder of Preferred Securities may exercise its right under the Declaration to exchange such Preferred Securities for Securities which shall be repurchased by the Corporation following a Change in Control by delivering to the Exchange Agent an irrevocable Notice of Repurchase Election and directing the Conversion Agent (i) to exchange such Preferred Security for a portion of the Securities held by the Trust (at an exchange rate of $50.00 principal amount of Securities for each Preferred Security), and (ii) to immediately tender such Securities, on behalf of such Securityholder, for repurchase pursuant to

A-9

Article XIII of the Indenture and, if such Preferred Securities are in certificated form, surrendering such Preferred Securities, duly endorsed or assigned to the Corporation or in blank.

5.             Acceleration.  In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all of the Securities and all accrued and unpaid Interest (including Contingent Interest) thereon may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.

6.             Modification and Waiver.  The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Corporation and the Debenture Trustee, with the consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, as defined in the Indenture, to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the Securities; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of each holder of Securities then outstanding and affected thereby, thereby (i) change the Maturity Date of any Security, or reduce the principal amount of, or any installment of principal of or Interest on the Securities; (ii) reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any); (iii) change any of the provisions of Article XIV of the Indenture relating to redemption; (iv) change the Conversion Rate except as provided in Section 17.03 and Section 17.04 of the Indenture with respect to adjustment of the Conversion Rate, or otherwise change the right to convert the Securities in a manner that would be adverse to Securityholders; (v) make the principal of, or Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) payment on, the Securities payable in any coin or currency other than that provided in the Indenture; (vi) change any obligation of the Corporation to maintain an office or agency in the places and for the purposes required by the Indenture or change the place of payment where the Securities or Interest payment thereon is payable; (vii) impair or affect the right of any holder of Securities to institute suit for the payment of the Securities as provided in the Indenture; (viii) reduce the percentage of the principal amount of the Securities required to consent to modify or amend the Indenture or for any waiver of compliance with provisions of the Indenture as stated in the Indenture or for waiver of Defaults as stated in the Indenture; (ix) make any change adverse to a Holder with respect to the subordination provisions of Article XV of the Indenture; or (x) modify any of the foregoing provisions; provided, however, that if the Securities are held by the Trust, no such modification or amendment referred to in clauses (i) through (x) shall be effective until the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate liquidation amount of the Trust Securities shall have consented to such modification or amendment; and provided further, that where a consent under the Indenture would require the consent of the Securityholders of more than a majority of the principal amount of the Securities, such modification or amendment shall not be effective until the holders of at least the same proportion in aggregate stated liquidation amount of the Trust Securities shall have consented to such modification or amendment. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, on behalf of all of the holders of the Securities, prior to any declaration accelerating the maturity of the Securities, to waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences, except (i) a Default in the payment of the principal of or Interest on any of the Securities or (ii) a Default in respect of any covenant or provision under which the Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each holder of Securities then outstanding. Any such consent or waiver by

A-10

the holder of this Security (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future holders and owners of this Security and of any Security issued in exchange herefor or in place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or otherwise), irrespective of whether or not any notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

7.             No Impairment.  No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Corporation, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and Interest (including Contingent Interest, if any) on this Security at the time and place and at the rate and in the money herein prescribed.

8.             Extension of Interest Payment Period.  So long as the Corporation is not in Default in the payment of Interest on the Securities, the Corporation shall have the right, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Securities, to defer payments of Interest (other than Contingent Interest) by extending the interest payment period of such Securities for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarterly periods, including the first such quarterly period during such extension period (an “Extended Interest Payment Period”), during which Extended Interest Payment Period no Interest (other than Contingent Interest) shall be due and payable; provided that no Extended Interest Payment Period shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date or extend beyond the Maturity Date or, with respect to any Securities called for redemption, the Redemption Date with respect to such Securities. At the end of any Extended Interest Payment Period, the Corporation shall pay all Interest then accrued and unpaid (together with interest thereon at the rate specified for the Securities to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law). Before the termination of any such Extended Interest Payment Period, the Corporation may further defer payments of Interest (other than Contingent Interest) by further extending such Extended Interest Payment Period, provided that such Extended Interest Payment Period, together with all such previous and further extensions within such Extended Interest Payment Period, (i) shall not exceed 20 consecutive quarterly periods, including the first quarterly period during such Extended Interest Payment Period, (ii) shall not end on any date other than an Interest Payment Date, and (iii) shall not extend beyond the Maturity Date of the Securities or, with respect to any Securities called for redemption, the Redemption Date with respect to such Securities. Upon the termination of any such Extended Interest Payment Period and the payment of all accrued and unpaid Interest and any additional amounts then due, the Corporation may commence a new Extended Interest Payment Period, subject to the foregoing requirements.  The payment of Contingent Interest may not, under any circumstances, be subject to an Extended Interest Payment Period.

9.             Limitation on Dividends.  The Corporation will be precluded from engaging in the transaction set forth in Section 3.07 of the Indenture, if at the time of such transaction (1) an event has occurred with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default and the Corporation has not taken reasonable steps to cure the event, (2) the Corporation shall be in default with respect to its payment obligations under the Trust Securities Guarantee or (3) the Corporation shall have given notice of its election of the exercise of its right to extend the interest payment period pursuant to Section 16.01 of the Indenture and any such extension shall be continuing.

A-11

10.           Liquidation of Trust.  Subject to the applicable provisions of the Declaration, the Corporation will have the right at any time to liquidate the Trust and cause the Securities to be distributed to the holders of the Trust Securities in liquidation of the Trust.

11.           Denominations, Transfer and Exchange. The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $50.00 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to the transfer restrictions limitations as may be contained herein and therein from time to time, this Security is transferable by the holder hereof on the Security Register of the Corporation, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Corporation accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Corporation or the Debenture Trustee duly executed by the holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount and series will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer, but the Corporation may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in relation thereto.
