or context inconsistent therewith the expressions listed below shall have the
following meanings, namely:

         "Adjusted Capital and Reserves" means at any relevant time the
         aggregate of the amount of the issued and paid up share capital of the
         Company and the aggregate amount standing to the credit of the
         consolidated capital and revenue reserves of the Company and the
         Subsidiaries (including for the purpose hereof any share premium
         account, capital redemption reserve, revaluation reserve, the
         unappropriated balance of investment grants and the amount standing to
         the credit of the profit and loss account), all as shown in the Latest
         Consolidated Balance Sheet but:

                  (i)    adjusted as may be appropriate to take account of (a)
                  any increase in or reduction of such share capital and
                  reserves (other than in respect of any unaudited profit or
                  loss attributed to the ordinary course of business) since
                  the date to which the Latest Consolidated Balance Sheet
                  shall have been made up (which shall include an issue or
                  proposed issue of share capital for cash which has been
                  unconditionally underwritten to the extent that the
                  underwriters are liable therefor and that such capital is
                  required to be paid up within six months from the date when
                  such underwriting liability becomes unconditional), (b) any
                  distributions in cash or in specie made (otherwise than to
                  the Company or to a Subsidiary from such reserves or profit
                  and loss account since such date and not





                                                                               2

                  provided for therein, (c) any Subsidiary not consolidated in
                  the Latest Consolidated Balance Sheet, any companies which
                  since the date thereof have ceased to be Subsidiaries and
                  any companies which will become or will cease to be
                  Subsidiaries as a result of the transaction in relation to
                  which the calculation fails to be made, and (d) any other
                  variation in the Company's interests in Subsidiaries since
                  the date of the Latest Consolidated Balance Sheet;

                  (ii)   after excluding any sums set aside for taxation
                  (including deferred tax) and any amount attributable to
                  minority interests in Subsidiaries;

                  (iii)  after deducting all amounts (if any) attributable to
                  goodwill or otherwise attributable to intangible assets and
                  any debit balance on profit and loss account or other
                  reserve account;

                  (iv)   adding thereto, in accordance with generally accepted
                  accounting principles of the United States of America, sums
                  equivalent to the unamortized balance of goodwill arising on
                  acquisitions of companies and businesses remaining part of
                  the Group which, as at the date of the relevant calculation,
                  have been written off against share capital and reserves in
                  accordance with United Kingdom accounting practices;

                  (v)    after deducting an amount equal to such part of the
                  interest of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries in a
                  related company as is attributable to any post-acquisition
                  undistributed profits and reserves, but including such
                  interests at original cost or, if lower, book value;

                  (vi)   after deducting (if not otherwise deducted) such amount
                  (if any) as the Auditors shall consider appropriate in
                  respect of any contingent taxation liabilities on the net
                  amount by which the fixed assets of the Company and the
                  Subsidiaries shall have been written up as a result of any
                  revaluation; and

                  (vii)  after making such other adjustments (if any) as the
                  Auditors may consider appropriate.

         "Auditors" means the auditors for the time being of the Company or, in
         the event of their being unable or unwilling to carry out any action
         requested of them pursuant to the provisions of these presents, such
         other firm of chartered accounts as the Trustee may in writing nominate
         or approve for the purpose after consultation with the Company;

         thereof, (b) liabilities under or in respect of any acceptance or

                                                                               3

         "Borrowings" means and includes as at any date:

                  (i)    all moneys borrowed (with or without security) by any

                  (ii)   the nominal amount of the issued redeemable share
                  capital (other than equity share capital as defined in
                  Section 744 of the Companies Act 1985) of any Subsidiary,
                  which is not beneficially owned by the Company or another
                  Subsidiary;

                  (iii)  the maximum amount for the time being outstanding for
                  which any member of the Group has given security or is
                  liable as guarantor or indemnifier in respect of:

                         (a) obligations for redemption of any share capital of
                         any body corporate (other than share capital which is

                         (b) the principal amount of moneys borrowed or other

                  Condition 3 and intended to be applied within six months of
                  being so borrowed in the repayment of moneys borrowed then
                  outstanding which fail to be taken into account pursuant to
                  that Condition pending their application for such purpose or
                  the expiration of such period whichever shall be the
                  earlier; provided that where the new moneys borrowed would
                  otherwise fail to be taken into account pursuant to the
                  limit set out in sub-paragraph (b) of Condition 3 but the
                  moneys borrowed so to be repaid fail to be taken into
                  account only pursuant to the limit set out in sub-paragraph
                  (a) of Condition 3 the new




                                                                               4

                  amounts shall be taken into account and the moneys borrowed
                  so to be repaid shall not;

                  (vii)  in the case of a Subsidiary, part of whose equity
                  share capital (defined as aforesaid) is beneficially owned
                  otherwise than by the Company or another Subsidiary, the
                  proportion of the total amounts for the time being
                  outstanding of moneys borrowed by such Subsidiary, otherwise
                  than from the Company or another Subsidiary, which
                  corresponds to the protection of the total amount of the
                  issued equity share capital of such Subsidiary, not
                  beneficially owned by the Company or another Subsidiary, but
                  only to the extent that an amount equivalent to such
                  proportion exceeds moneys borrowed from such partly-owned
                  Subsidiary by the Company or another Subsidiary;

                  (viii) moneys held by the Company or a Subsidiary whether on
                  deposit or current account or otherwise in connection with
                  any scheme for the benefit of employees or their dependents;

                  (ix)   borrowings from banks or others for the purpose of
                  financing any contracts in respect of which any part of the
                  price receivable is guaranteed or insured by the Export
                  Credits Guarantee Department of the Department of Trade and
                  Industry or by any other governmental department (whether in
                  the United Kingdom or elsewhere) fulfilling a similar
                  function or any other institution approved by the Trustee
                  carrying on similar business to an amount not exceeding that
                  part of the price receivable thereunder which is so
                  guaranteed or insured; and

                  (x)    moneys borrowed or raised for the purpose of making
                  deposits with H.M. Customs and Excise or other body
                  designated by any relevant legislation or order in
                  connection with import deposits or any similar governmental
                  scheme and which are for the time being so deposited to the
                  extent that the Company or the Subsidiary making such
                  deposit retains its interest therein;

         and so that:

                  (xi)   no amount shall be taken into account more than once in
                  the same calculation;

                  (xii)  when the aggregate amount of Borrowings required to be
                  taken into account for the purpose of this definition on any
                  particular day (a "Calculation Day") is being ascertained,
                  any such Borrowings denominated or repayable in a currency
                  other than sterling shall be converted for the purpose of
                  calculating the sterling equivalent at the average of the
                  rate of exchange prevailing on each of the 5 business days
                  in London ending on and including a Calculation Day (and so
                  that for this purpose the rate of exchange on any such day
                  shall be taken as the middle market rate as at the close of
                  business on such day);

                  (xiii) a sum equal to the amount of Borrowings of a company
                  which becomes a Subsidiary after the date hereof and which
                  are outstanding at the date when such company becomes a
                  Subsidiary shall for the period of six months from the date
                  of





                                                                               5

                  such event be deemed not to be Borrowings for the purpose of
                  either of the limits contained in Condition 3;

                  (xiv)  any company which it is proposed shall become or cease
                  to be a Subsidiary contemporaneously with any relevant
                  transaction shall be treated as if it had already become or
                  ceased to be a Subsidiary; and

                  (xv)   for the avoidance of doubt, amounts prospectively
                  payable for the hire or lease of movable or immovable
                  property shall not be deemed to be Borrowings
                  notwithstanding that a capital amount in respect of such
                  amounts may be included as a liability in the Latest
                  Consolidated Balance Sheet;

         "business day" means, unless for any purpose expressly defined in these
         presents or the Conditions, in any particular place a day on which

(pound)100,000,000. The Original Bonds and the Original Coupons will constitute
unsecured obligations of the Company and rank and will rank pari passu without

accordance with the Conditions and these presents, on the due date for the final
maturity of the Original Bonds as specified in the Conditions, or on such
earlier date as any of them become payable thereunder, pay or procure to be paid

aforesaid interest on the principal amount of the Original Bonds outstanding as
set out in the Conditions PROVIDED THAT (i) in any case where the date of
maturity of the principal or interest in respect of the Original Bonds or the
date fixed for redemption of any Original Bond shall not be at any place of
payment a business day, then payment of principal or interest shall not be made
on such date at such place of payment but shall be made on the next succeeding
day which is at such place of payment a business day, with the same force and
effect as if made on the date of maturity or the date fixed for payment or
redemption and no interest shall accrue for the period after such date; (ii)
every payment in accordance with the Conditions of principal or interest in
respect of the Original Bonds to or to the account of the Principal Paying Agent
in the manner provided in the Paying Agency Agreement shall operate in
satisfaction pro tanto of the relevant covenant by the Company





                                                                              11

Conditions to the Original Bondholders or Original Couponholders (as the case
may be); (iii) in the case of any payment of principal made to the Trustee or
the Principal Paying Agent after the due date or pursuant to Condition 8,
interest shall continue to accrue at the rate set out in the Conditions on the

later than 14 days after the day on which the whole of such principal amount,
together with an amount equal to the interest which has accrued and is to accrue
up to and including that date, has been received by the Trustee or the Principal
Paying Agent) which the Trustee determines to be the date on and after which
payment is to be made to the Original Bondholders in respect thereof as stated
in a notice given to the Original Bondholders in accordance with Condition 13
provided that such date for payment shall be as soon as is reasonably
practicable after receipt by the Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent of any
payment of principal; (iv) in any case where payment of the whole or any part of
the principal amount of any Original Bond is improperly withheld or refused upon
due presentation thereof (other than in circumstances contemplated by (iii)
above) interest shall accrue on the principal amount of such Original Bond
payment of which has been so withheld or refused at the rate set out in the
Conditions from the date of such withholding or refusal until (but excluding)
the earlier of the date on which, on further presentation, payment in full of
the principal in respect thereof is made and the seventh day after the date on
which notice is given in accordance with the Conditions that the full amount
payable in respect of such Original Bond is available for payment (provided that
payment is in fact made on presentation); and (v) in any case where interest
fails to be paid in respect of a period of less than a year the amount thereof
shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year of 12 months of 30 days each
and, in the case of an incomplete month, the actual number of days elapsed.

endorsed by the Trustee on this Trust Deed and by the Company on the duplicate

         (E)  Any Further Securities not forming a single series with the

purpose the Trustee in its absolute discretion shall otherwise determine, the

7, 8, 9, 14 to 16 and 20 to 26 and the Third Schedule shall apply mutatis
mutandis separately and independently to the Securities of each series and in

Conditions as if the same were set out and contained in these presents which

6.       Record of cancelled Securities and Coupons
         ------------------------------------------

         (A)  The Company shall procure that all Securities (i) redeemed or (ii)

Trustee may accept such certificate as conclusive evidence of redemption,

Securities and Coupons.

         (B)  The Company shall procure (i) that the Principal Paying Agent

issued in substitution for lost, stolen, mutilated, defaced or destroyed
Securities or Coupons and (ii) that such records (if any) shall be made
available to the Trustee at all reasonable times.

7.       Enforcement by the Trustee
         --------------------------

         (A)  At any time after the Securities shall have become immediately due
and repayable, the Trustee may at its discretion and without further notice take
such proceedings as it may think fit against the Company to enforce the rights
of the Holders or the Couponholders against the Company under the Securities,
the Coupons or these presents.

         (B)  Should the Trustee take proceedings against the Company in
accordance with sub-clause (A) of this Clause:

              (i)    proof therein that, as regards any Security, the Company
              has made default in paying any principal or premium or (where
              interest is payable against such Security) interest due in
              respect thereof shall (unless the contrary be proved) be





                                                                              15



              sufficient evidence that the Company has made the like default as
              regards all other Securities which are then due and repayable;
              and

              (ii)   proof therein that, as regards any specified Coupon, the
              Company has made default in paying any interest due in respect
              thereof shall (unless the contrary be proved) be sufficient
              evidence that the Company has made the like default as regards
              all other Coupons which are then due and payable.

         (C)  The Trustee shall not be bound to take any such proceedings as are
mentioned in sub-clause (A) of this Clause unless respectively directed or
requested to do so (i) by an Extraordinary Resolution or (ii) in writing by the
Holders of at least 20 per cent, of the principal amount of the Securities then
outstanding and in either case then only if it shall be indemnified to its
satisfaction against all actions, proceedings, claims and demands to which it
may thereby render itself liable and all costs, charges, damages and expenses
which it may incur by so doing.

         (D   No Holder or Couponholder shall be entitled to proceed directly
against the Company to enforce the performance of any of the provisions of these
presents or of the Securities or the Coupons unless the Trustee having become
bound as aforesaid to take proceedings fails to do so within a reasonable period
and such failure is continuing.

8.       Application of moneys by the Trustee
         ------------------------------------

         (A)  Without prejudice to the provisions of Clause 10, moneys received
by the Trustee in respect of amounts payable under the Securities, the Coupons
or these presents after the Securities shall have become immediately due and
repayable shall be held by the Trustee upon trust to apply the same:

              FIRST in payment of all costs, charges and expenses incurred and
              payments made by the Trustee under the provisions of these
              presents and all remuneration payable to the Trustee;

              SECONDLY in or towards payment pari passu and rateably of all
              arrears of interest remaining unpaid in respect of the Securities
              and all principal moneys and premium due in respect of the
              Securities; and

              THIRDLY in payment of the balance (if any) to the Company.

         (B)  Without prejudice to the provisions of this Clause, if the Trustee
shall hold any moneys which represent principal, premium or interest in respect
of Securities or Coupons which have become void under Condition 9, the Trustee
shall (subject to payment or provision for the payment or satisfaction of the
said costs, charges, expenses and liabilities including the remuneration of the
Trustee) pay the same to the Company.

9.       Payments by the Trustee
         -----------------------

              The Trustee shall give or procure that there be given notice
to the relevant Holders in accordance with Condition 13 of the day fixed for any
payment to them under Clause





                                                                              16


8. Such payment may be made in accordance with Condition 6 and any payment so
made shall be a good discharge to the Trustee.

10.      Investment by the Trustee
         -------------------------

         (A)  If the amount of the moneys at any time available for the payment
of principal, premium (if any) and interest in respect of the Securities under
Clause 8 shall be less than 10 per cent. of the principal amount of the
Securities then outstanding the Trustee may at its discretion invest such moneys
in some or one of the investments hereinafter authorised with power from time to
time at the like discretion to vary such investments and such investments with
the resulting income therefrom may be accumulated until the accumulations
together with any other funds for the time being under the control of the
Trustee and available for such purpose shall amount to a sum being not less than
10 per cent. of the principal amount of the Securities then outstanding and then
such accumulations and funds shall be applied in manner aforesaid.

         (B)  Any moneys which under the trusts of these presents ought to or
may be invested by the Trustee may be invested in the name or under the control
of the Trustee in any of the investments for the time being authorised by
English law for the investment by trustees of trust moneys or in any other
investments whether similar to the aforesaid or not which may be selected by the
Trustee or by placing the same on deposit in the name or under the control of
the Trustee at such bank or other financial institution and in such currency as
the Trustee may think fit and the Trustee may at any time or times vary or
transpose any of such investments for or into other such investments or convert
any moneys so deposited into any other currency and shall not be responsible for
any loss occasioned thereby whether by depreciation in value, fluctuations in
exchange rates or otherwise resulting from any such investments or deposits.

11.      Enfacement of Securities and Coupons
         ------------------------------------

              Upon any payment under Clause 8 (other than payment in full
against surrender of a Security or Coupon) the Security or Coupon in respect of
which such payment is made shall be produced to the Trustee or the Paying Agents
by or through whom such payment is made and the Trustee shall or shall cause
such agent to enface thereon a memorandum of the amount and the date of the
payment.

12.      Restrictions on borrowings
         --------------------------

              The Company hereby covenants with and undertakes to the
Trustee that it will procure that for so long as any of the Original Bonds
remains outstanding the aggregate principal amount (together with any fixed or
minimum premium payable on final repayment) for the time being outstanding in
respect of:

              (a)    all Borrowings (other than those for the time being owing
              to and the right to repayment of which is beneficially owned by a
              member of the Group) shall not at any time exceed one hundred and
              seventy-five per cent. of the Adjusted Capital and Reserves; and





                                                                              17



              (b)    all Secured Borrowings (other than those for the time being
              owing to and the right to repayment of which is beneficially
              owned by a member of the Group) shall not at any time exceed
              fifty per cent. of the Adjusted Capital and Reserves.

13.      Restriction on the disposal of assets
         -------------------------------------

              The Company hereby covenants with and undertakes to the Trustee
         that:

         (A)  So long as any of the Original Bonds remain outstanding, the
         Company will not, and will procure that none of its Subsidiaries
         shall, dispose of the whole or any part of its assets whether by a
         single transaction or a series of transactions (whether related or
         not) if and to the extent that the value of the assets disposed of and
         failing to be taken into account pursuant to this Clause 13 when
         aggregated with the value of all such other disposals of assets by
         members of the Group would exceed 30 per cent. of the value of the
         total assets of the Group taken as a whole, provided that no disposal
         shall be taken into account for the purposes of this provision:

              (i)    if the disposal of assets (other than immovable property)
              is made in the ordinary course of business;

              (ii)   where the disposal is made by any member of the Group to
              another member of the Group;

              (iii)  if it is a disposal which the Trustee has determined under
              sub-paragraph (c) below shall not be taken into account;

              (iv)   where the disposal consists of an exchange of assets for
              other assets of a similar nature and value;

              (v)    if and to the extent that an aggregate amount equivalent to
              the proceeds of disposal of immovable property has, within a
              period of 12 months (or such longer period as the Trustee may
              agree) before or after such disposal, been applied in the
              acquisition or construction of or improvement to immovable
              property;

              (vi)   if and to the extent that an aggregate amount equivalent to
              the proceeds of disposal of fixed assets (other than immovable
              property) has, within a period of 12 months (or such longer
              period as the Trustee may agree) before or after such disposal,
              been applied in the acquisition or construction of or improvement
              to fixed assets or immovable property;

              (vii)  if and to the extent that an aggregate amount equivalent to
              the proceeds of disposal of current assets, has, within a period
              of 12 months (or such longer period as the Trustee may agree)
              before or after such disposal, been applied in the acquisition of
              any assets;

              (viii) where the assets (other than immovable property) disposed
              of comprise obsolete or obsolescent assets or temporary
              investments which are surplus to requirements; or






                                                                              18


              (ix)   where immovable property is disposed of in the normal
              course of development of the Group's business;

         (B)  For the purposes of the foregoing:

              (i)    the value of any assets disposed of shall be the value
              thereof as included in the Latest Consolidated Balance Sheet or,
              in the case of an asset which was not taken into account for the
              purposes thereof, its book value at the date of disposal;

              (ii)   the value of the assets of the Group taken as a whole shall
              be the aggregate value thereof shown in the Latest Consolidated
              Balance Sheet;

              (iii)  the expenditure of cash shall be deemed not to be a
              disposal of assets; cash arising from the claims for loss of or
              damage to immovable property shall, however, be deemed not to be
              cash but to be immovable property;

              (iv)   the repayment of borrowings or other indebtedness, the
              redemption of loan or share capital, the payment of a dividend in
              cash out of profits or reserves available for the purpose and the
              temporary application of surplus funds to purchase marketable
              securities which are subsequently disposed of (and all expenses
              incurred in connection with such disposal) shall be deemed not to
              be a disposal of assets;

              (v)    if any shares in a relevant company are disposed of or
              acquired there shall be deemed to have been a disposal or
              acquisition not of such shares but of the underlying assets. For
              this purpose:

                     (a)   "relevant company" means a company which is a
                     Subsidiary at the relevant time;

                     (b)   "underlying assets" means those proportions of the
                     assets of the relevant company and of any companies which
                     are subsidiaries of it (other than assets which would be
                     eliminated on consolidation if a consolidated balance sheet
                     of the Group were prepared) which correspond to the
                     proportion of the equity share capital of the company
                     concerned in which the Company is (directly or through
                     Subsidiaries) interested (all as at the relevant time); and

                     (c)   "relevant time" means in the case of an acquisition
                     immediately after such acquisition and in the case of a
                     disposal immediately before such disposal;

              (vi)   references to the proceeds of disposal of assets shall be
              taken to refer to the net proceeds after allowing for taxation
              payable by reason of the disposal and all expenses incurred in
              connection with such disposal.






                                                                              19


              (vii)  "disposal" includes sale, transfer or assignment but shall
              not include an assignment by way of security or the creation of
              any other security interest, and "dispose" shall be construed
              accordingly;

         (C)  The Trustee may at any time, without the consent or sanction of
         the Original Bondholders, consent to any disposal or determine that
         any disposals made or intended to be made shall not be taken into
         account.

14.      General covenants by the Company
         --------------------------------

              So long as any of the Securities remains outstanding the Company
              shall:

              (i)    at all times retain a Paying Agent in respect of the
              Original Bonds having a specified office in one city in
              Continental Europe and (so long as the Original Bonds are listed
              on The Stock Exchange), a Paying Agent having a specified office
              in London and in respect of any Further Securities retain such
              agents in such places as may be required by the Conditions;

              (ii)   give to the Trustee such information and evidence as it
              shall reasonably require and in such form as it shall reasonably
              require (including but without prejudice to the generality of the
              foregoing the procurement by the Company of all such certificates
              called for by the Trustee pursuant to Clause 16(C)) for the
              purpose of the discharge of the duties, trusts, powers,
              authorities and discretions vested in it under these presents or
              by operation of law;

              (iii)  cause to be prepared and certified by the Auditors, in
              respect of each financial period, accounts in such form as will
              comply with the requirements for the time being of The Stock
              Exchange;

              (iv)   at all times keep and procure the Subsidiaries to keep
              proper books of account sufficient to enable the calculations
              relevant to determining whether an Event of Default has occurred
              to be made, and at any time after either an Event of Default or
              any condition, act or event which with the giving of notice
              and/or the lapse of time and/or the issue of a certificate would
              constitute an Event of Default shall have occurred or the Trustee
              shall have reasonable grounds for believing that an Event of
              Default or such condition, act or event as aforesaid has
              occurred, allow and procure that each of the Subsidiaries shall
              allow the Trustee and any firm of accountants of recognised
              international standing appointed by the Trustee to whom the
              Company shall have no reasonable objection upon giving reasonable
              notice free access of such books of account at all reasonable
              times during normal business hours;

              (v)    send to the Trustee (in addition to any copies to which it
              may be entitled as a holder of any Securities of the Company) and

              debtor in place of the Company (or of any previous substitute

              of the Company whose obligations under the Securities and Coupon
              will be guaranteed by the Company, if the directors of the
              Substituted Company or any two authorised representatives thereof

              prospects of the Substituted Company





                                                                              30

Couponholders and keep them indemnified against:

              (a)     any loss or damage incurred by any of them arising from
              the non-payment by the Company of any amount due to the Trustee,
              the Holders or Couponholders under these presents, the Securities
              or the Coupons by reason of any variation in the rates of
              exchange between those used for the purpose of calculating the
              amount due under a judgment or order in respect thereof and those
              prevailing at the date of actual payment by the Company; and

              (b)     any deficiency arising or resulting from any variation in
              rates of exchange between (i) the date as of which the local
              currency equivalent of the amounts due or contingently due under
              these presents (other than this Clause) or in respect of the
              Securities or the Coupons is calculated for the purposes of any
              bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation of the Company and (ii) the
              final date for ascertaining the amount of claims in such
              bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation. The amount of such
              deficiency shall be deemed not to be reduced by any variation in
              rates of exchange occurring between the said final date and the
              date of any distribution of assets in connection with any such
              bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation.

              The above indemnities shall constitute obligations of the
Company separate and independent from its obligations under the Securities and
the Coupons and shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the
Trustee or the Holders or the Couponholders from time to time and shall continue
in full force and effect notwithstanding the judgement or filing of any proof or
proofs in any bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation of the Company for a
liquidated sum or sums in respect of amounts due under these presents (other
than this Clause) or the Securities. Any such deficiency as aforesaid shall be
deemed to constitute a loss suffered by the Holders and Couponholders and no
proof or evidence of any actual loss shall be required by the Company or its
liquidator.

         ----------------------------

         (A)  The power to appoint a new trustee of these presents shall be
vested in the Company but no person shall be appointed who shall not previously
have been approved by an Extraordinary Resolution. One or more persons may hold
office as trustee or trustees of these presents but such trustee or trustees
shall be or include a Trust Corporation. Whenever there shall be more than two
trustees of these presents the majority of such trustees shall be competent to
execute and exercise all the duties, powers, trusts, authorities and discretions
vested in the Trustee by these presents PROVIDED THAT a Trust Corporation shall
be included in such majority.

         (B)  Notwithstanding the provisions of sub-clause (A) of this Clause,
the Trustee may, upon giving prior notice to the Company (but without the
consent of the Company or the Holders) appoint any person established or
resident in any jurisdiction (whether a Trust Corporation or not) to act either
as a separate trustee or as a co-trustee jointly with the Trustee (i) if the
Trustee considers such appointment to be in the interests of the Holders, (ii)
for the purposes of conforming to any legal requirements, restrictions or
conditions in any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts is or are to
be performed or (iii) for the purposes of obtaining a judgment in any
jurisdiction or the enforcement in any jurisdiction of either a judgment already
obtained or any of the previsions of these presents against the Company. The
Company hereby irrevocably appoints the Trustee to be its attorney in its name
and on its behalf to execute any such instrument of appointment. Such a person
shall (subject always to the provisions of these presents) have such trust,
powers, authorities and discretions (not exceeding those conferred on the
Trustee by these presents) and such duties and obligations as shall be conferred
or imposed by the instrument of appointment. The Trustee shall have power in
like manner to remove any such person. Such reasonable remuneration as the
Trustee may pay to any such person, together with any attributable costs,
charges and expenses properly incurred by it in performing its function as such
separate trustee or co-trustee shall for the purposes of these presents be
treated as costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Trustee.

         (C)  Any appointment of a new trustee of these presents shall as soon
as practicable thereafter be notified by the Company to the Principal Paying
Agent and the Holders.

         -------------------------

              A trustee of these presents may retire at any time on giving
not less than three months' prior written notice to the Company without
assigning any reason and without being responsible for any costs occasioned by
such retirement. The Holders shall have the power exercisable by Extraordinary
Resolution to remove any trustee or trustees for the time being of these
presents. The Company undertakes that in the event of the only trustee hereof
which is a Trust Corporation giving notice under this Clause or being removed by
Extraordinary Resolution it will use its best endeavours to procure a new
trustee of these presents being a Trust Corporation to be appointed. The
retirement or removal of any such trustee shall not become effective until a
successor trustee being a Trust Corporation is appointed.






                                                                              32


27.      Powers of the Trustee to be additional
         --------------------------------------

Trustee by the general law or as a holder of any of the Securities or Coupons.

                        TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE BONDS

The (pound)100,000,000 10 7/8 per cent. Bonds Due 2020 (the "Bonds") of Lucas
Industries plc (the "Company") are constituted by a trust deed (the "Trust
Deed") dated 10 January 1989 between the Company and The Law Debenture Trust
Corporation p.l.c. (the "Trustee") as trustee for the holders of the Bonds (the
"Bondholders"). The issue of the Bonds was authorised by a resolution of the
Board of Directors of the Company passed on 12 December 1988 and a resolution of
a duly constituted committee of the Board of Directors of the Company passed on
13 December 1988. The statements in these Terms and Conditions include summaries
of, and are subject to, the detailed provisions of the Trust Deed, which
includes the form of the Bonds and the coupons appertaining to the Bonds (the
"Coupons"). Copies of the Trust Deed and the paying agency agreement dated 10
January 1989 (the "Paying Agency Agreement") appointing the paying agents (the
"Paying Agents") are available for inspection at the principal office of the
Trustee, being at the date hereof, Princes House, 95 Gresham Street, London EC2V
7LY and at the specified office of each of the Paying Agents. The Bondholders
and the holders of the Coupons (the "Couponholders") are entitled to the benefit
of, are bound by, and are deemed to have notice of, all the provisions contained
in the Trust Deed.

1.    STATUS, FORM, DENOMINATION AND TRANSFER

The Bonds are in bear form, serially numbered, in denominations of (pound)10,000
and (pound)100,000 each. The Bonds are unsecured obligations of the Company,
ranking pari passu without any preference or priority among themselves and
equally with all other existing and future unsecured obligations of the Company,
other than any subordinated or statutorily preferred obligations. Title to the
Bonds and the Coupons will pass by delivery. Except as required by law, any
person may deem and treat the bearer of any Bond or Coupon as the absolute owner
thereof (notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing thereon or any
notice of previous loss or theft or other interest therein). The holder of each
Coupon, whether or not the Coupon is attached to a Bond, in his capacity as such
shall be subject to and bound by all the provisions contained in the relevant
Bond.

2.    INTEREST

The Bonds bear interest from 10 January 1989 at the rate of 10 7/8 per cent. per
annum, payable annually in arrear on 10 July in each year, except that the first
payment of interest, to be made on 10 July 1989, will be in respect of the
period from 10 January 1989 to 10 July 1989 and will amount to (pound)543.75 per
(pound)10,000 nominal amount of a Bond. For this purpose Coupons are attached to
the Bonds at the date of issue and interest due on each 10 July will be paid
against surrender of the appropriate Coupon in accordance with the provisions of
Condition 6; provided that if the due date for redemption of any Bond is not a
date for payment of interest or if payment of principal is improperly withheld
or refused in respect of such Bond or if default is otherwise made in respect of
any such payment, interest accrued in respect of such Bond from (and including)
the date for payment of interest being or last preceding the relevant date (as
defined in Condition 7) for the payment of such Bond (or, if such date for
payment falls before 10 July 1989, from 10 January 1989) will be paid against
presentation and endorsement or (as the case may be) surrender of such Bond.
When interest is required to be calculated for a period of less





                                                                              42


than one year, it will be calculated on the basis of 360-day year consisting of
12 months of 30 days each and, in the case of an uncompleted month, the number
of days elapsed.

The Bonds will cease to bear interest from the due date for redemption therefor
unless, upon due presentation thereof, payment of principal is improperly
withheld or refused.

3.    RESTRICTIONS ON BORROWINGS

The Company will procure that for so long as any of the Bonds remains
outstanding (as defined in the Trust Deed) the aggregate principal amount
(together with any fixed or minimum premium payable on final repayment) for the
time being outstanding in respect of:

          (a)   all Borrowings (other than those for the time being owing to and
          the right to repayment of which is beneficially owned by a member of
          the Group) shall not at any time exceed 175 per cent. of the Adjusted
          Capital and Reserves; and

          (b)   all Secured Borrowings (other than those for the time being
          owing to and the right to repayment of which is beneficially owned by
          a member of the Group) shall not at any time exceed 50 per cent. of
          the Adjusted Capital and Reserves.

assets disposed of and failing to be taken into account pursuant to this
Condition 4 when aggregated with the value of all such other disposals of assets
by members of the Group would exceed 30 per cent of the value of the total
assets of the Group taken as a whole, provided that no disposal shall be taken
into account for the purposes of this provision:

                (i)    if the disposal of assets (other than immovable property)
                       is made in the ordinary course of business;

                       account;

                       immovable property;

                (vii)  if and to the extent that an aggregate amount equivalent
                       to the proceeds of disposal of current assets has, within
                       a period of 12 months (or such longer period as the
                       Trustee may agree) before or after such disposal been
                       applied in the acquisition of any assets;

                (viii) where the assets (other than immovable property) disposed

                       the date of disposal;

                (ii)   the value of the total assets of the Group taken as a

or after 10 January 1994 (or such earlier date as the Bank of England may permit
as more specifically set out in the Trust Deed), having given not more than 60
nor less than 30 days' notice in accordance with Condition 13, redeem the whole
or part (in the principal amount of (pound)10,000,000 or integral multiples
thereof) of the Bonds at a redemption price which shall be the higher of the
following, together with internet accrued to the date fixed for redemption:

                (i)    par, and

                (ii)   that price, expected at a percentage (rounded to three
                       decimal places, 0.0005 being rounded upwards), at which
                       the Gross Redemption Yield on the Bonds, if they were to
                       be purchased at such price on the third dealing dry prior
                       to the due date for redemption, would be equal to the
                       Gross Redemption Yield on such dealing day of 12 per
                       cent. Exchanger Stock 2013/2017 or of such other United

                       to be appropriate (the "Reference Stock") on the basis of

                       at 11.00 a.m. (London time) on such dealing day, as
                       determined by J. Henry Schroder Wagg & Co. Limited (or
                       such other person as the Trustee may approve). Any





                                                                              45


                       references in these Terms and Conditions to principal
                       shall be deemed to include any such payable as the
                       redemption price pursuant to this Condition 5(b).

The "Gross Redemption" Yield on the Bonds and on the Reference Stock will be
expressed as a percentage and will be calculated on the basis indicated by the
Joint Index and Classification Committee of the Institute and Faculty of
Actuaries as reported in the Journal of the Institute of Actuaries, Vol. 105.

redemption price and, in the case of partial redemption, the serial members of
Bonds called for redemption, the serial numbers of Bonds previously called for
redemption and not presented for payment and the aggregate principal amount of
the Bonds to remain outstanding after the redemption. Upon the expiry of any
notice of redemption the Company shall be bound to redeem the Bonds called for
redemption at the applicable redemption price. In the case of partial
redemption, Bonds to be redeemed will be drawn for redemption at such place and
individually by lot or otherwise in such manner as may be approved by the
Trustee.

          (c)   Redemption for taxation records -- If the Company at any time
satisfies the Trustee that, as a result of any change in or amendments to the
laws or regulations of the United Kingdom or any authority thereof or thereto or
in the official or judicial interpretation or application of any such laws or
regulation since 22 December 1983, on that next due date for payment of interest
in respect of the Bonds, the Company would be required to pay any additional
amounts in accordance with Condition 7, the Company may, having given not more
than 60 nor less than 30 days' prior notice to the Trustee and the Bondholders,
redeem all, but not some only, of the Bonds at their principal amount, together
with interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption. Upon the expiry of such
notice of redemption the Company shall be bound so to redeem the Bonds.

          (d)   Purchases -- The Company or any Subsidiary may (subject as
provided below) at any time purchase Bonds in any manner at prices (exclusive of
expenses and accrued interest) not exceeding (i) in the case of a purchase by
tender, the average of the middle market quotations of the Bonds derived from
The Daily Official List of The International Stock Exchange of the United
Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland Limited ("The Stock Exchange") for the ten
dealing days prior to the date of purchase (the "Average Price") or (ii) in the

forthwith, together with all unmatured Coupons relating thereto and surrendered
therewith, and may not be resold or reissued.

6.    PAYMENTS

Payments of principal and/or interest in respect of Bonds shall be made against
surrender of Bonds, in the case of interest payments due on 10 July in any year,
Coupons. Such payment will be made at any specified office of any Paying Agent
by sterling cheque drawn on, or, at the option of the holder, wire transfer to a
sterling account maintained by the payee with, a Town Clearing branch of a bank
in London, subject to any fiscal or other laws and regulations applicable
thereon, but without prejudice and the provisions set out in Condition 7.

Bonds should be presented for payment together with all unmatured Coupons,
failing which the amount of any missing unmatured Coupon (or, in the case of
payment not being made in full, that proportion of the amount of such missing
unmatured Coupon which the sum of principal so paid _______ to the total
principal amount due) will be deducted from the sum due for payment. Any amount
of principal so deducted will be paid in the manner mentioned above against
surrender of the _________ missing Coupon during the period of 12 years next
following the relevant date for the payment of such principal, whether or not
such Coupon shall have become void pursuant to Condition 9, or if ____ six years
from the date for payment stated on such Coupon. If the due date for redemption
of any Bond is not 10 July in any year, the interest accrued from the preceding
10 July (or, if the due date for redemption falls before 10 July 1989 from 10
January 1989) shall be payable only against presentation of the relevant Bond at
the specified office of any of the Paying Agents as provided above.

If the due date for payment of any amount of principal or interest in respect of
any Bond or Coupon is not a day on which banks are open for business in the
place where the relevant Bond or Coupon (as the case may be) is presented for
payment and, in the case of a payment by transfer to a sterling account in
London, then the holder thereof shall not be entitled to payment of the amount
due until the next following such day nor to any further interest or other
payment in respect of such delay.

The names of the initial Principal and other Paying Agents are set out at the
end of these Terms and Conditions. The Company reserves the right, subject to
the approval of the Trustee, at any time to void or terminate the appointment of
any Paying Agent and to appoint other or further Paying Agents, provided that it
will at all times maintain a Paying Agent with a specified office in continental
Europe and, so long as the Bonds are listed on The Stock Exchange, a Paying
Agent with a specified office in London. Notice of any such termination or
appointment and of any changes in the specified offices of the Paying Agents
will be given by the Company to the Bondholders in accordance with Condition 13.

7.    TAXATION

All payments of principal and interest will be made without withholding or
deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties,
assessments or governmental charges of nature imposed or levied by or on behalf
of the United Kingdom or any authority thereof or therein having power to tax,
unless the Company is required by law to withhold or deduct amounts for,





                                                                              47


or on account of, such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges. In
that event, the Company will pay such additional amounts as will be necessary in
order that the met amounts received by the Bondholders and/or Couponholders
after such withholding or deduction shall equal the respective amounts of
principal and interest which would otherwise have been receivable in respect
thereof in the absence of such withholding or deduction, except that no such
additional amounts shall be payable with respect to any Bond or Coupon presented
for payment:

          (a)   by or on behalf of a holder who is liable to such taxes, duties,
assessments or governmental charges by reason of his being connected with the
United Kingdom otherwise then by the mere holding of such Bond or Coupon; or

          (b)   in the United Kingdom(1), or

          (c)   more than 30 days after the relevant date except to the extent
that the holder thereof would have been entitled to such additional amounts on
presenting the same for payment on the last day of such period.

As used herein, the "relevant date" in respect of any Bond or Coupon means the
date on which payment in respect thereof first becomes due or (if the full
amount of the moneys payable has not been received by the Principal Paying Agent
or the Trustee on or prior to such due date the date on which notice is duly
given to the Bondholders in accordance with Condition 13 that such moneys have
been so received and are available for payment.

References herein to principal and interest shall be deemed to include any
additional amounts which may be payable under the obligations referred to in
this Condition or any obligations undertaken in addition thereto or in
substitution therefor pursuant to the Trust Deed.

8.    REPAYMENT IN EVENT OF DEFAULT

The Trustee at its discretion may, and if so requested in writing by the holders

the Company of notice requiring the same to be remedies; or

              resolution and any abstentions; and

              (iv)  one or more person or persons named in such document
              (hereinafter called "proxies") is or are authorised and
              instructed by such Paying Agent to cast the votes attributable to
              the Securities so listed in accordance with the instructions
              referred to in (iii) above as set out in such document.

         The holder of any voting certificates or the proxies named in any block

meeting or adjourned meeting of Holders be deemed to be the holder of the
Securities to which such voting certificate or block voting instruction relates

in connection with any meeting or proposed meeting of Holders;





                                                                              61


         (e)  Any proxy appointed pursuant to sub-paragraph (c) above or
representative appointed pursuant to sub-paragraph (d) above shall so long as
such appointment remains in force be deemed, for all purposes in connection with
any meeting or proposed meeting of Holders specified in such appointment, to be
the holder of the Registered Securities to which such appointment relates and
the holder of the Registered Security shall be deemed for such purposes not to
be the holder.

2.    The Company or the Trustee may at any time and the Company shall upon a
requisition in writing signed by the holders of not less than one-tenth in

business day) at the same time and place (except in the case of a meeting at
which an Extraordinary Resolution is to be proposed in which case it shall stand

Securities so hold or represented by them) shall (subject as provided below)
form a quorum and shall (subject as provided below) have power to pass any
Extraordinary Resolution or other resolution and to decide upon all matters

specified in the proviso to paragraph 5 above, the quorum shall be tow or more
persons present holding Securities or voting certificates or being proxies or

7.    Notice of any adjourned meeting at which an Extraordinary Resolution is to
be submitted shall be given in the same manner as notice of an original meeting
but as if 10 were substituted for 21 in paragraph 3 above and such notice shall

shall state the relevant quorum) state that the two persons present





                                                                              63


holding Securities or voting certificates or being proxies or representatives at

represented by them will form a quorum. Subject as aforesaid it shall not be
necessary to give any notice of an adjourned meeting.

8.    Every question submitted to a meeting shall be decided in the first
instance by a show of hands and in case of equality of votes the Chairman shall
both on a show of hands and on a poll have a casting vote in addition to the
votes or vote (if any) to which he may be entitled as a Holder or as a holder of
a voting certificate or as a proxy or representative.

9.    At any meeting, unless a poll is (before or on the declaration of, the

proxies or representatives and holding or representing the aggregate not less

proportion of the votes recorded in favour of or against such resolution.

10.   Subject to paragraph 12 below, if at any such meeting a poll is so
demanded it shall be taken in such manner and subject as hereinafter provided
either at once or after an adjournment as the Chairman directs and the result of
such poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll
was demanded as at the date of the taking of the poll. The demand for a poll
shall not prevent the continuance of the meeting for the transaction of any
business other than the motion on which the poll has been demanded.

11.   The Chairman may with the consent of (and shall, if directed by) any such
meeting adjourn the same from time to time and from place to place but no
business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting except business which
might lawfully (but for the lack of required quorum) have been transacted at the
meeting from which the adjournment took place.

on any question of adjournment shall be taken at the meeting without
adjournment.

contained shall prevent any of the proxies named in any block voting instruction
from being a director, officer or representative of or otherwise connected with
the Company or any Subsidiary.






                                                                              64

         (b)  on a poll every person who is so present shall have one vote in
respect of each (pound)1 in principal amount of the Security so produced or
represented by the voting certificate so produced or in respect of which he is a
proxy.

instruction any person entitled to more than one vote need not use all his votes
or cast all the votes to which he is entitled in the same way.

16.   Each block voting instruction together (if so required by the Trustee)
with proof satisfactory to the Trustee of its due execution on behalf of the
relevant Paying Agent shall be deposited at such place as the Trustee shall

as valid unless the Chairman of the meeting decides otherwise before such
meeting or adjourned meeting proceeds to business. A certified copy of each
block voting instruction shall be deposited with the Trustee before the
commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting but the Trustee shall not
thereby be obliged to investigate or be concerned with the validity of or the
authority of the proxies named in any such block voting instruction.

17.   Any vote given in accordance with the terms of a block voting instruction
shall be valid notwithstanding the previous revocation or amendment of the block
voting instruction or of any of the Holders' instructions pursuant to which it
was executed PROVIDED THAT no imitation in writing of such revocation or
amendment shall have been received from the relevant Paying Agent by the Company
at its registered office (or such other place as may have been approved by the
Trustee for the purpose) by the time being 48 hours before the time appointed
for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the block voting
instruction is to be used.

18.   A meeting of the Holders shall in addition to the powers hereinbefore

         made between the Company and the Holders and Couponholders or any of

         arrangement in respect of the rights of the Holders and Couponholders
         against the Company or against any of its property whether such rights
         shall arise under these presents or otherwise.

         (C)  Power to assent to any modification of the provisions contained in
         these presents or the Conditions, the Securities or the Coupons which

         other person or entity.

19.   Any resolution passed at a meeting of the Holders duly convened and held
in accordance with these presents shall be binding upon all the Holders whether
present or not present at such meeting and whether or not voting and upon all
Couponholders and each of them shall be bound to give effect thereto accordingly
and the passing of any such resolution shall be conclusive evidence that the
circumstances justify the passing thereof. Notice of any resolution duly passed
by the Holders shall be published in accordance with Condition 13 by the Company
within 14 days of the passing of such resolution PROVIDED THAT the
non-publication of such notice shall not invalidate such resolution.

20.   The expression "Extraordinary Resolution" when used in these presents
means a resolution passed at a meeting of the Holders duly convened and held in
accordance with the provisions herein contained by a majority consisting of not
less than three-fourths of the persons voting thereat upon a show of hands or if
a poll be duly demanded then by a majority consisting of not less than
three-fourths of the votes given on such poll.

21.   Minutes of all resolutions and proceedings at every such meeting as

therein continued and until the contrary is proved every such meeting in respect
of the proceedings of which Minutes have been made shall be deemed to have been
duly held and convened and all resolutions passed or proceedings had thereat to

                                                                              66


22.   Subject to all other provisions contained in these presents the Trustee
may with the consent of the Company, but without the consent of the Holders or
the Couponholders, prescribe such further regulations regarding the
requisitioning and/or the holding of meetings of Holders and attendance and
voting thereat as the Trustee may in its sole discretion think fit.

23.      (1)  If and whenever the Company shall have issued and have outstanding
any Securities which are not identical and do not form one single series then
those Securities which are in all respects identical shall be deemed to
constitute a separate series of the Securities and the foregoing provisions of
this Schedule shall have effect subject to the following modifications:

         (a)  a resolution which in the opinion of the Trustee affects one
         series only of the Securities shall be deemed to have been duly passed
         if passed at a separate meeting of the holders of Securities of that
         series;

         (b)  a resolution which in the opinion of the Trustee affects more than
         one series of the Securities but does not give rise to a conflict of
         interest between the holders of Securities of any of the series so
         affected shall be deemed to have been duly passed if passed at a
         single meeting of the holders of the Securities of all the series so
         affected;

         (c)  a resolution which in the opinion of the Trustee affects more than
         one series of the Securities and gives or may give rise to a conflict
         of interest between the Holders of the Securities of one series or
         group of series so affected and the Holders of the Securities of
         another series or group of series so affected shall be deemed to have
         been duly passed only if in lieu of being passed at a single meeting
         of the Holders of the Securities of all such series it shall be duly
         passed at separate meetings of the Holders of the Securities of each
         series or group of series so affected; and

         (d)  to all such meetings as aforesaid all the preceding provisions of
         this Schedule shall mutatis mutandis apply as though references
         therein to Securities and Holders were references to be Securities of
         the series or group of series in question and to the Holders of such
         Securities respectively.

         (2)  If the Company shall have issued and have outstanding Securities
which are not denominated in pounds sterling, in the case of meetings of Holders
of Securities of more than one currency the principal amount of such Securities
not so denominated shall (i) for the purpose of paragraph (1) above be
equivalent in pounds sterling at the spot rate of a bank nominated by the
Trustee for the conversion of the relevant currency or currencies into pounds
sterling on the seventh dealing day prior to the day on which notice in writing
is received by the Trustee and (ii) for the purposes of paragraphs 5, 6, 9 and
24 above (whether in respect of the meeting, or any adjourned such meeting or
any poll resulting therefrom) be the equivalent in pounds sterling at such spot
rate on the seventh dealing day prior to the day of such meeting or, if
applicable, of the taking of such poll. The number of votes exercisable by each
Holder shall be adjusted in such manner as the Trustee may determine to ensure
that each Holder has, so far as the Trustee considers reasonably practicable,
votes which fairly reflect the sterling equivalent of the principal amount of
Securities held by him.






                                                                              67
