On issue of such Debentures, Debentures with an equivalent aggregate principal amount that were presented by the Property Trustee to the Trustee will be deemed to have been canceled.

SECTION 2.5 OPTIONAL DEFERRAL OF INTEREST. Section 313 of the Base Indenture is replaced by this Section 2.5, together with Section 5.5. (a) As long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and as long as a Failed Remarketing has not occurred, the Company has the right, at any time and from time to time, to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by extending the interest payment period on the Debentures for a period (each, an "Extension Period") not exceeding 20 consecutive quarters, during which Extension Period no interest shall be due and payable on the Debentures, provided that no Extension Period shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date for the Debentures or extend beyond the Stated Maturity. Upon the occurrence of a Failed Remarketing, any such Extension Period shall terminate, and interest shall become payable in cash on the next Interest Payment Date. Despite such deferral, interest shall continue to accrue with additional interest thereon (to the extent permitted by applicable law) at the Coupon Rate of the principal amount of the Debentures or the Reset Rate of the Accreted Value of the Debentures, as applicable, compounded quarterly during any such Extension Period ("Compounded Interest"). Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period, the Company may further defer payments of interest by further extending such Extension Period; provided that such Extension Period, together with all such previous and further extensions of such Extension Period, may not exceed 20 consecutive quarters or extend beyond the Stated Maturity. At the termination of any Extension Period, the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid, plus Compounded Interest.

(iii) The Company shall pay all deferred interest and Compounded Interest on the Debentures prior to the exercise of its right to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures. SECTION 2.6 REDEMPTION.

(c) On the applicable Required Repurchase Date, the Debenture Issuer shall repurchase the Debentures which were the subject of an exchange notice received by the Debenture Issuer by paying the Repurchase Price directly to the selling Holder. SECTION 2.8 CHANGE OF CONTROL RIGHT TO REQUIRE EXCHANGE OF PREFERRED SECURITIES AND REPURCHASE OF DEBENTURES.

(c) Waiver of Past Defaults. Section 513 of the Base Indenture shall be supplemented by this Section 2.11(c). The Holders of not less than 66 2/3% of aggregate principal amount of the Debentures then Outstanding and in the case of any Debt Securities of a series initially issued to an Issuer Trust, the holders of a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount (as defined in the related Trust Agreement) of Trust Preferred Securities issued by such Issuer Trust may waive any past default with respect to the Debentures, except for (i) a default in the payment of principal of or interest on the Debentures and (ii) a default in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Debenture then Outstanding, provided, however, that no such waiver shall be effective until the holders of a majority in aggregate stated liquidation amount of Trust Securities shall have consented to such waiver; and provided, further, that where a consent would require the Holders of more than a majority in principal amount of Debentures, no such waiver shall be effective until the holders of at least the same proportion in aggregate stated liquidation amount of Trust Securities shall have consented to such waiver.

SECTION 6.1 DEBENTURES SUBORDINATED TO SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS. The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder, by such Holder's acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the indebtedness represented by the Debentures and the payment of the principal of and interest on each and all of the Debentures is hereby expressly subordinated and junior, to the extent and in the manner set forth and as set forth in this Section 6.1, in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness. (a) In the event of any distribution of assets of the Company upon any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company or otherwise, the holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled first to receive payment of the full amount due thereon in respect of all such Senior Indebtedness and all other amounts due or provision shall be made for such amount in cash, or other payments satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, before the Holders are entitled to receive any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, on account of the principal of or interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Debentures. (b) In the event of any acceleration of maturity of the Debentures because of an Event of Default, unless the full amount due in respect of all Senior Indebtedness is paid in cash or other form of payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, no payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal of or interest on the Debentures or to acquire any of the Debentures, and the Company shall give prompt written notice of such acceleration to such holders of Senior Indebtedness. (c) In the event of and during the continuance of any default in payment of the principal of or interest on any Senior Indebtedness, unless all such payments due in respect of such Senior Indebtedness have been paid in full in cash or other payments satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, no payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal of or interest on the Debentures or to acquire any of the Debentures. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any default under any Senior Indebtedness or under any agreement pursuant to which Senior Indebtedness may have been issued. (d) During the continuance of any event of default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness, as such event of default is defined under any such Senior Indebtedness or in any agreement pursuant to which any Senior Indebtedness has been issued (other than a default in payment of the principal of or interest on any Senior Indebtedness), permitting the holder or holders of such Senior Indebtedness to accelerate the maturity thereof, no payment shall be made by the Company, directly or indirectly, with respect to principal of or interest on the Debentures for 179 days following notice in writing (a "Payment Blockage Notice") to the Company, from any holder or holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or the 21 trustee or trustees under any indenture or under which any instrument evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, that such an event of default has occurred and is continuing, unless such event of default has been cured or waived or such Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full; provided, however, if the maturity of such Senior Indebtedness is accelerated, no payment may be made on the Debentures until such Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or such acceleration (or termination, in the case of a lease) has been cured or waived. For purposes of this Section 6.1(d), such Payment Blockage Notice shall be deemed to include notice of all other events of default under such indenture or instrument which are continuing at the time of the event of default specified in such Payment Blockage Notice. The provisions of this Section 6.1(d) shall apply only to one such Payment Blockage Notice given in any period of 365 days with respect to any issue of Senior Indebtedness, and no such continuing event of default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice shall be, or shall be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice. (e) In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Sections 6.1(a), 6.1(b), 6.1(c) and 6.1(d), any payment on account of principal of or interest on the Debentures shall be made by or on behalf of the Company and received by the Trustee, by any Holder or by any Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, money for any such payment shall be segregated and held in trust): (i) after the occurrence of an event specified in Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b), then, unless all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash, or provision shall be made therefor, (ii) after the happening of an event of default of the type specified in Section 6.1(c) above, then, unless the amount of such Senior Indebtedness then due shall have been paid in full, or provision made therefor or such event of default shall have been cured or waived, or (iii) after the happening of an event of default of the type specified in Section 6.1(d) above and delivery of a Payment Blockage Notice, then, unless such event of default shall have been cured or waived or the 179-day period specified in Section 6.1(d) shall have expired, such payment (subject, in each case, to the provisions of Section 6.7 hereof) shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be immediately paid over to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of the Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their interests may appear. SECTION 6.2 SUBROGATION. Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness to which the indebtedness evidenced by the Debentures is in the circumstances subordinated as provided in Section 6.1 hereof, the Holders 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 Company applicable to such Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the Debentures shall be paid in full, and, as 22 between the Company, its creditors other than holders of such Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders, no such payment or distribution made to the holders of Senior Indebtedness by virtue of this Article which otherwise would have been made to the holders of the Debentures shall be deemed to be a payment by the Company on account of such Senior Indebtedness, provided that the provisions of this Article are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders, on the one hand, and the holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand. SECTION 6.3 OBLIGATION OF THE COMPANY IS ABSOLUTE AND UNCONDITIONAL. Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Debentures is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders the principal of and interest on the Debentures as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything contained herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy. SECTION 6.4 MATURITY OF OR DEFAULT ON SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS. Upon the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, all principal of or premium, if any, or interest on, rent or other payment obligations in respect of all such matured Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full, or such payment shall have been duly provided for, before any payment on account of principal or interest is made upon the Debentures. SECTION 6.5 PAYMENTS ON DEBENTURES PERMITTED. Except as expressly provided in this Article, nothing contained in this Article shall affect the obligation of the Company to make, or prevent the Company from making, payments of the principal of or interest on the Debentures in accordance with the provisions hereof and thereof, or shall prevent the Trustee or any Paying Agent from applying any moneys deposited with it hereunder to the payment of the principal of or interest on the Debentures. SECTION 6.6 EFFECTUATION OF SUBORDINATION BY TRUSTEE. Each Holder, by such Holder's acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Holder's behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this Article and appoints the Trustee such Holder's attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which any such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceeding affecting the affairs of the Company is pending or upon a certificate of the trustee in 23 bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making any payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, and as to other facts pertinent to the right of such Persons under this Article, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Persons pending judicial determination as to the right of such Persons to receive such payment. SECTION 6.7 KNOWLEDGE OF TRUSTEE. Notwithstanding the provision of this Article or any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any Senior Indebtedness, of any default in payment of principal of or interest on, rent or other payment obligation in respect of any Senior Indebtedness, or of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of moneys to or by the Trustee, or the taking of any other action by the Trustee, unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee having responsibility for the administration of the trust established by this Indenture shall have received written notice thereof from the Company, any Holder, any Paying Agent of the Company or the holder or representative of any class of Senior Indebtedness, and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such default or facts exist; provided, however, that unless on the third Business Day prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any such moneys may become payable for any purpose the Trustee shall have received the notice provided for in this Section 6.7, then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such moneys and apply the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it on or after such date. SECTION 6.8 TRUSTEE'S RELATION TO SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS. The Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article with respect to any Senior Indebtedness at the time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness and nothing contained in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Nothing contained in this Article shall apply to claims of or payments to the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 607 of the Base Indenture. With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver to Holders, the Company or any other Person moneys or assets to which any holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article or otherwise. 24 SECTION 6.9 RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS NOT IMPAIRED. No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce the subordination herein shall at any time or in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. SECTION 6.10 MODIFICATION OF TERMS OF SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS. Any renewal or extension of the time of payment of any Senior Indebtedness or the exercise by the holders of Senior Indebtedness of any of their rights under any instrument creating or evidencing Senior Indebtedness, including without limitation the waiver of default thereunder, may be made or done all without notice to or assent from the Holders or the Trustee. No compromise, alteration, amendment, modification, extension, renewal or other change of, or waiver, consent or other action in respect of, any liability or obligation under or in respect of, or of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any indenture or other instrument under which any Senior Indebtedness is outstanding or of such Senior Indebtedness, whether or not such release is in accordance with the provisions or any applicable document, shall in any way alter or affect any of the provisions of this Article or of the Debentures relating to the subordination thereof. ARTICLE VII RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF PREFERRED SECURITIES SECTION 7.1 PREFERRED SECURITY HOLDERS' RIGHTS.

(k) If, as a result of the efforts described in 8.2(j), the Remarketing Agent determines that it will be able to remarket all of the Debentures deemed tendered for purchase at the purchase price set forth in Section 8.2(j) prior to 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent shall determine the Reset Rate, which shall be the rate per annum (rounded to the nearest one-thousandth (0.001) of 1% per annum) that the Remarketing Agent determines, in its sole judgment, to be the lowest rate per annum that will enable it to remarket all of the Debentures deemed tendered for Remarketing. (l) If none of the Holders of the Debentures or the holders of the Units elects to have their Debentures remarketed in the Remarketing, the Reset Rate shall be the rate determined by the Remarketing Agent, in its sole discretion, as the rate that would have been established had a Remarketing been held on the Remarketing Date, and the related modifications to the others terms of the Debentures and the Warrants shall be effective on the Remarketing Date.

The Depositary shall make payment in accordance with its normal procedures.

In such event, the aggregate principal amount of Debentures to be so delivered shall be determined by such Depositary participant, and delivery of such aggregate principal amount of Debentures shall constitute good delivery. (q) The Remarketing Agent is not obligated to purchase any Debentures that otherwise would remain unsold in the Remarketing. Neither the Trust, any Trustee, the Company nor the Remarketing Agent shall be obligated in any case to provide funds to make payment upon tender of the Debentures for Remarketing. (r) Under the Remarketing Agreement, the Company shall be liable for, and shall pay, any and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Remarketing, and the Trust shall not have any liabilities for such costs and expenses.

Limited Right to Require Exchange of Preferred Securities and Repurchase of Debentures.

The proceeds from the Remarketing of the Debentures shall be paid to the selling Holders, provided that, upon a Trading Remarketing Event or a Legal Cause Remarketing Event, the proceeds from the Remarketing of the Debentures that are held pursuant to the Unit A-7 Agreement for which the holders of such Units have elected to exercise their Warrants shall be paid directly to the Warrant Agent to satisfy in full the Exercise Price of the Warrants held by such holders.

Not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day preceding the Remarketing Date, each Holder of Debentures may elect not to have the Debentures held by such Holder remarketed in the Remarketing. Holders of Debentures that are not held pursuant to the Unit Agreement shall give such notice to the Trustee and Holders of Debentures that are held pursuant to the Unit Agreement shall give such notice to the Unit Agent. Holders of Debentures that are not held pursuant to the Unit Agreement and holders of Debentures that are held pursuant to the Unit Agreement that do not give notice of their intention not to participate in the Remarketing shall be deemed to have consented to the disposition of their Debentures in the Remarketing.

The right of each Holder to have Debentures tendered for purchase shall be limited to the extent that: (i) the Remarketing Agent conducts a Remarketing pursuant to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement; (ii) the Remarketing Agent is able to find a purchaser or purchasers for the Debentures deemed tendered; and A-10 (iii) such purchaser or purchasers deliver the purchase price therefor to the Remarketing Agent. On the Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remarket the Debentures deemed tendered for purchase at a price equal to: (i) in connection with a Remarketing upon a Trading Remarketing Event or a Legal Cause Remarketing Event, 100% of the aggregate Accreted Value as of the end of the day on the day next preceding the Remarketing Date, and (ii) on the Maturity Remarketing Date, 100% of the principal amount. If, as a result of the efforts described herein, the Remarketing Agent determines that it will be able to remarket all of the Debentures deemed tendered for purchase at the purchase price set forth above prior to 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent shall determine the Reset Rate, which shall be the rate per annum (rounded to the nearest one-thousandth (0.001) of 1% per annum) that the Remarketing Agent determines, in its sole judgment, to be the lowest rate per annum that will enable it to remarket all of the Debentures deemed tendered for Remarketing. If none of the Holders of the Debentures or the holders of the Units elects to have their Debentures remarketed in the Remarketing, the Reset Rate shall be the rate determined by the Remarketing Agent, in its sole discretion, as the rate that would have been established had a Remarketing been held on the Remarketing Date, and the related modifications to the others terms of the Debentures and the Warrants shall be effective on the Remarketing Date. If, by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent is unable to remarket all of the Debentures deemed tendered for purchase, a Failed Remarketing shall be deemed to have occurred and the Remarketing Agent shall so advise by telephone the Depositary, the Property Trustee, the Trustee, the Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust and the Company. The Administrative Trustees shall then give notice of the Failed Remarketing to the Holders of the Debentures prior to the close of business on the Business Day following the Failed Remarketing Date.

A-11 By approximately 4:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the Remarketing Date, provided that there has not been a Failed Remarketing, the Remarketing Agent shall advise, by telephone: (i) the Depositary, the Property Trustee, the Trustee, the Trust and the Company of the Reset Rate determined in the Remarketing and the aggregate principal amount of Debentures sold in the Remarketing; (ii) each purchaser (or the Depositary participant thereof) of the Reset Rate and the aggregate principal amount of Debentures such purchaser is to purchase; and (iii) each purchaser to give instructions to its Depositary participant to pay the purchase price on the Remarketing Settlement Date in same day funds against delivery of the Debentures purchased through the facilities of the Depositary. In accordance with the Depositary's normal procedures, on the Remarketing Settlement Date, the transactions described above with respect to each Debenture deemed tendered for purchase and sold in the Remarketing shall be executed through the Depositary, and the accounts of the respective Depositary participants shall be debited and credited and such Debentures delivered by book-entry as necessary to effect purchases and sales of such Debentures. The Depositary shall make payment in accordance with its normal procedures. If any Holder of the Debentures selling such Debentures (or any holder of Units selling the Debentures that are held pursuant to the Unit Agreement) in the Remarketing fails to deliver such Debentures, the Depositary participant of such selling holder and of any other Person that was to have purchased Debentures in the Remarketing may deliver to any such other Person an aggregate principal amount of Debentures that is less than the aggregate principal amount of Debentures that otherwise was to be purchased by such Person. In such event, the aggregate principal amount of Debentures to be so delivered shall be determined by such Depositary participant, and delivery of such aggregate principal amount of Debentures shall constitute good delivery. The Remarketing Agent is not obligated to purchase any Debentures that otherwise would remain unsold in the Remarketing. Neither the Trust, any Trustee, the Company nor the Remarketing Agent shall be obligated in any case to provide funds to make payment upon tender of the Debentures for Remarketing. Under the Remarketing Agreement, the Company shall be liable for, and shall pay, any and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Remarketing, and the Trust shall not have any liabilities for such costs and expenses. The tender and settlement procedures set forth herein, including provisions for payment by purchasers of the Debentures in the Remarketing, shall be subject to modification to the extent required by the Depositary or if the book-entry system is no longer available for the Debentures at the time of the Remarketing, to facilitate the tendering and remarketing of the Debentures in definitive form.
