The information set forth below with regard to revenues and operating profits has been derived from the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company (the "Consolidated Financial Statements") contained in the 1996 Annual Report, and should be read in conjunction with such Consolidated Financial Statements.

The retail marketing of propane and appliances is carried on primarily under the trade name "Thermogas" through 149 Company-owned and operated retail plants in 15 states in the upper Midwest and the Southeast regions of the United States. Propane is used principally as a fuel in various domestic, commercial, industrial, agricultural and vehicle motor fuel applications. Residential customers, who account for the majority of sales, use propane for home heating, cooking and other domestic purposes. The primary agricultural use is crop drying. Commercial and industrial uses include fuel for shopping centers and industrial plants. Revenues in 1996 for the Propane Marketing business unit were $429.5 million, compared to $338.3 million in 1995. Operating profit in 1996, which included a $20.8 million gain on the sale of propane and fertilizer assets to CENEX Inc, was $65.0 million, compared to $35.2 million in 1995.

The Company has also announced a retail expansion program which will add 36 new MAPCO Express stores and travel centers in 1997 and 1998. All of the motor fuel sold by MAPCO Express stores is supplied either by exchanges or directly from either the Memphis or North Pole refineries. Revenues in 1996 for the Retail Petroleum business unit were $714.9 million, compared to $631.3 million in 1995. Operating profit in 1996 was $30.3 million, compared to $12.5 million in 1995.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS.

Effective January 1, 1997, MAPCO sold its interest in the West Panhandle field to Westpan NGL Co., a subsidiary of MESA Operating Company, for $66 million. Sales and operating revenues from the Westpan operations were $29 million and $26 million in 1996 and 1995, respectively. Operating profit from the Westpan operations was $18 million and $16 million in 1996 and 1995, respectively. As part of the sales agreement, MAPCO was released from its liability for its share of prior NGL over-takes.

In February 1997, MAPCO Energy L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company wholly-owned by MAPCO ("MAPCO Energy"), formed a joint venture with Texaco Exploration and Production Inc. ("Texaco") under the name Discovery Producer Services, L.L.C. ("Discovery"), which will own and operate the Discovery project. Discovery will construct a 150-mile pipeline varying in diameter from 12 inches to 30 inches to transport natural gas from offshore discovery wells in the Gulf of Mexico to gas processing and fractionation facilities in southern Louisiana. The joint venture will also include the construction of a cryogenic gas processing plant with a capacity of approximately 600 cubic feet of gas per day near Larose, Louisiana, and will expand a natural gas liquids fractionator in Paradis, Louisiana. MAPCO Energy and Texaco will each own 50% of the joint venture and Texaco will be the operator. Discovery has filed an application for regulatory approval and plans to begin construction of the project immediately following such approval. The fractionator is expected to be operational by mid-1998. MAPCO Energy anticipates that its share of capital expenditures associated with this project in 1997 will be $114 million.

DESCRIPTION OF OFFERED SECURITIES

The following description of the particular terms of the Offered Securities supplements, and to the extent inconsistent therewith replaces, the description in the accompanying Prospectus of the general terms and provisions of the Debt Securities (as defined in the accompanying Prospectus), to which description reference is hereby made.

GENERAL

The Notes will mature on March , 2009 and will be limited to $100 million aggregate principal amount. The Debentures will mature on March , 2027 and will be limited to $100 million aggregate principal amount. The Offered Securities are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank pari passu in right of payment with all other existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company. As of December 31, 1996, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the offering of the Offered Securities and the anticipated application of the estimated net proceeds therefrom, the Company would have had approximately $370.5 million of indebtedness outstanding which ranked pari passu with the Offered Securities and the Company's subsidiaries would have had approximately $173.6 million of indebtedness outstanding which was effectively senior to the Offered Securities. The Notes and the Debentures will each constitute a series of Debt Securities to be issued under an Indenture to be dated as of February 25, 1997 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the "Indenture"), between the Company and The First National Bank of Chicago, as trustee (the "Trustee"), the terms of which are more fully described in the accompanying Prospectus. The statements herein concerning the Offered Securities and the Indenture do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the provisions of the Indenture, including the definitions therein of certain terms. Capitalized terms used in this section and not otherwise defined in this section have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

The Offered Securities are not redeemable or repayable prior to maturity and do not provide for any sinking fund. The Company may purchase Offered Securities in the open market, by tender or otherwise. Offered Securities so purchased may be held, resold or surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. If applicable, the Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and other securities laws and regulations in connection with any such purchase. The Offered Securities may be defeased in the manner provided in the Indenture.

Interest on the Notes and Debentures will be payable semi-annually in arrears on each March and September (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing September , 1997 to the person in whose name a Note or Debenture (or any predecessor Note or Debenture) is registered at the close of business on the or , as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date at the respective per annum rates set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus Supplement. Interest payable on each Interest Payment Date will include interest accrued from March , 1997 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for to but excluding such Interest Payment Date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEMS

The Offered Securities will be issued in fully registered form in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. One or more fully registered certificates will be issued as Global Securities for the Notes in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes and one or more fully registered certificates will be issued as Global Securities for the Debentures in the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures. Such Global Securities will be deposited with DTC and may not be transferred except as a whole by DTC to a nominee of DTC or by a nominee of DTC to DTC or another nominee of DTC or by DTC or any nominee to a successor of DTC or a nominee of such successor.

DTC has advised the Company and the Underwriters as follows:

DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve

S-6

System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC holds securities that its participants ("Participants") deposit with DTC.

Direct Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is owned by a number of its Direct Participants and by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange, Inc. and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as securities brokers and dealers, banks, and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). The rules applicable to DTC and its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Purchases of Offered Securities under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Offered Securities on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of Offered Securities ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase, but Beneficial Owners are expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct and Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Offered Securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the Offered Securities, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Offered Securities is discontinued.

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Offered Securities deposited by Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co. The deposit of Offered Securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. effect no change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Offered Securities; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Offered Securities are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time.

Principal and interest payments on the Global Securities will be made to DTC. The Company expects that DTC, upon receipt of any payment of principal or interest in respect of a Global Security, will credit immediately Participants' accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of such Global Security as shown on DTC's records. The Company also expects that payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name", and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, the Company or the Trustee, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time.

So long as DTC, or its nominee, is the registered owner of the Global Securities, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or Holder (as defined in the Indenture) of the Offered Securities represented by such Global Securities for all purposes under the Indenture. Except as set forth below, owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security will not be entitled to have Offered Securities represented by a Global Security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of Offered Securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or Holders thereof under the Indenture. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a Global Security must rely on the

S-7

procedures of DTC and, if such person is not a Participant, those of the Participants through which such person owns its interest, in order to exercise any rights of a Holder under the Indenture.

DTC and Cede & Co. will take any action permitted to be taken by a Holder of Offered Securities only at the direction of one or more Participants to whose accounts interests in the Global Securities are credited and only in respect of such portion of the aggregate principal amount of Notes or Debentures, as the case may be, as to which such Participant or Participants has or have given such direction.

The laws of some jurisdictions require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of such securities in definitive form. Such limits and laws may impair the ability to transfer beneficial interests in the Global Securities.

DTC may discontinue providing its service as securities depositary with respect to the Offered Securities at any time by giving reasonable notice to the Company or the Trustee. In addition, the Company may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depositary). Under such circumstances, if a successor securities depositary is not obtained, Note or Debenture certificates in fully registered form, as the case may be, are required to be printed and delivered to Beneficial Owners of the Global Securities representing such Notes and Debentures.

The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the Company believes to be reliable (including DTC), but the Company takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

Neither the Company, the Trustee nor the Underwriters will have any responsibility or obligation to Participants, or the persons for whom they act as nominees, with respect to the accuracy of the records of DTC, its nominee or any Participant with respect to any ownership interest in the Offered Securities, or payments to, or the providing of notice to Participants or Beneficial Owners.

The Offered Securities will trade in DTC's Same-Day Funds Settlement System and secondary market trading activity in the Offered Securities will, therefore, settle in immediately available funds. All applicable payments of principal and interest on the Offered Securities issued as Global Securities will be made by the Company in immediately available funds.

For other terms of the Offered Securities, see "Description of Debt Securities" in the accompanying Prospectus.

The Underwriters have advised the Company that they propose to offer the Offered Securities to the public at the public offering prices set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus Supplement, and to certain dealers at such prices less a concession not in excess of % of the principal amount of the Notes and % of the principal amount of the Debentures. The Underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a discount not in excess of % of the principal amount of the Offered Securities to certain other dealers. After the initial public offering, the public offering price, concession and discount may be changed.

S-8

The Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against or make contributions relating to certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

There currently is no public market for the Offered Securities. The Offered Securities will not be listed on any securities exchange, and there can be no assurance that there will be a secondary market for the Offered Securities. From time to time, one or more of the Underwriters may make a market in the Offered Securities; however, at this time no determination has been made as to whether any of the Underwriters will make a market in the Offered Securities. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to whether an active trading market for the Notes or the Debentures will develop or as to the liquidity of any trading market for the Notes or the Debentures.

The Underwriters may engage in certain transactions which may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the Offered Securities. Such transactions may include over-allotments of the Offered Securities and purchases of the Offered Securities.

The Underwriting Agreement provides that the obligations of the several Underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the Offered Securities are subject to the approval of certain legal matters by counsel to the Underwriters and to certain other conditions. The Underwriters are committed to take and pay for all of the Offered Securities if any are taken.

In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, certain of the Underwriters and their affiliates have engaged, and may in the future engage, in investment banking or commercial banking transactions with the Company. From time to time, affiliates of Chase Securities Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. engage in general financing and banking transactions with the Company and its affiliates for which they are paid customary fees. An affiliate of Chase Securities Inc. is agent for the lenders under the Company's revolving credit facility, and receives customary compensation therefor.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the Offered Securities will be passed upon for the Company by Debevoise & Plimpton, New York, New York. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Underwriters by Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson (a partnership including professional corporations), New York, New York.

MAPCO's natural gas liquids business is one of North America's largest operators of natural gas liquids and ammonia pipelines, fractionation and storage facilities and also markets natural gas liquids. MAPCO's propane marketing business, operating under the "Thermogas" name, was, at the end of 1996, the fourth largest retail propane marketer in the United States. MAPCO's petroleum refining business owns and operates refineries and markets wholesale refined products in Alaska and Tennessee.

References in this Prospectus to "MAPCO" or the "Company" include its subsidiaries, unless otherwise specified herein or the context requires otherwise.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Except as set forth in a Prospectus Supplement, the Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, working capital, capital expenditures, investments in or loans to subsidiaries, the repayment or refinancing of debt, including outstanding commercial paper, possible future business acquisitions, the satisfaction of other obligations or for such other purposes as may be specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES AND
EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES AND PREFERRED STOCK DIVIDENDS

The following table sets forth the Company's ratio of earnings to fixed charges and earnings to fixed charges and preferred stock dividends for the years indicated, restated to reflect the reporting of the Company's Coal segment, which was sold in 1996, as discontinued operations.

                                                                  YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
                                                            ------------------------------------
                                                            1996    1995    1994    1993    1992
                                                            ----    ----    ----    ----    ----
Ratio of earnings to fixed charges........................  4.4     2.6     2.4     3.8     2.9
Ratio of earnings to fixed charges and preferred stock
  dividends...............................................  4.4     2.6     2.4     3.8     2.9

For purposes of calculating the ratio of earnings to fixed charges and the ratio of earnings to fixed charges and preferred stock dividends, earnings consist of income from continuing operations before income taxes, minority interest and fixed charges (exclusive of preferred stock dividends). For purposes of calculating both ratios, fixed charges include interest expense, capitalized interest and that portion of rentals representative of an interest factor. The pro forma effect of applying approximately $100 million of net proceeds from the Offering to the repayment of existing commercial paper borrowings does not significantly change the 1996 historical ratio.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

The Senior Debt Securities offered hereby are to be issued in one or more series under the Indenture, dated as of February 25, 1997, as amended or supplemented from time to time (as so amended or supplemented, the "Senior Indenture"), between the Company and The First National Bank of Chicago, as trustee (the "Senior Trustee"). The Subordinated Debt Securities offered hereby are to be issued in one or more series under the Subordinated Indenture, dated as of February 25, 1997, as amended or supplemented from time to time (as so amended or supplemented, the "Subordinated Indenture" and, together with the Senior Indenture, the "Indentures"), between the Company and The First National Bank of Chicago, as trustee (the "Subordinated Trustee" and, together with the Senior Trustee, the "Trustees"). Copies of the Indentures have been filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part.

The statements herein relating to the Debt Securities and the following summaries of certain provisions of the Indentures do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the Indentures (as they may be amended or supplemented from time to time) and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "TIA"). Whenever particular sections or defined terms of the Indentures are referred to herein or in a Prospectus Supplement, such sections or defined terms are incorporated herein or therein by reference.

GENERAL

The Debt Securities will be unsecured obligations of the Company. The Senior Debt Securities will rank on a parity with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company. The Subordinated Debt Securities will be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Subordinated Indenture to all Senior Debt (as defined below) of the Company, including any Senior Debt Securities. See "-- Subordination under the Subordinated Indenture." The Company is a holding company which presently conducts its business through its subsidiaries. Most of the operating assets of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries are owned by such subsidiaries and the Company relies primarily on dividends from such subsidiaries to meet its obligations for payment of principal and interest on its outstanding debt obligations and corporate expenses. Accordingly, the Debt Securities will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of the Company's subsidiaries, and holders of Debt Securities should look only to the assets of the Company for payments on the Debt Securities. Various loan agreements with a subsidiary of the Company contain restrictive covenants which, among other things, limit the payment of advances or dividends by certain of the Company's subsidiaries to the Company. At December 31, 1996, $190 million of net assets held by such subsidiaries were restricted from use for paying dividends or advances to the Company.

The Indentures do not limit the aggregate amount of Debt Securities which may be issued thereunder. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Indentures, as they apply to any series of Debt Securities, do not limit the incurrence or issuance of other secured or unsecured debt of the Company, whether under either of the Indentures, any other indenture that the Company may enter into in the future or otherwise. See "-- Subordination under the Subordinated Indenture" and the Prospectus Supplement relating to any offering of Subordinated Debt Securities.

The Debt Securities will be issuable in one or more series pursuant to an indenture supplemental to the Senior Indenture or the Subordinated Indenture, as the case may be, or a resolution of the Company's Board of Directors or a committee thereof. (Section 2.1 of each Indenture.)

Reference is made to the applicable Prospectus Supplement which will accompany this Prospectus for a description of the specific series of Debt Securities being offered thereby, including: (1) the title of such Debt Securities; (2) any limit upon the aggregate principal amount of such Debt Securities; (3) the date or dates on which the principal of and premium, if any, on such Debt Securities will mature or the method of determining such date or dates; (4) the rate or rates (which may be fixed or variable) at which such Debt Securities will bear interest, if any, or the method of calculating such rate or rates; (5) the date or dates from which interest, if any, will accrue or the method by which such date or dates will be determined; (6) the date or dates on which interest, if any, will be payable and the record date or dates therefor;
(7) the place or places where principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Debt Securities will be payable or at which

5

Debt Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange; (8) the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which, if other than in United States dollars, the currency or currencies (including currency unit or units) in which, and the other terms and conditions upon which, such Debt Securities may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company;
(9) the obligation, if any, of the Company to redeem or purchase such Debt Securities pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous provisions or upon the happening of a specified event or at the option of a holder thereof and the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which, if other than in United States dollars, the currency or currencies (including currency unit or units) in which, and the other terms and conditions upon which, such Debt Securities shall be redeemed or purchased, in whole or in part, pursuant to such obligation; (10) the denominations in which such Debt Securities are authorized to be issued; (11) the currency or currency unit in which Debt Securities may be denominated and/or the currency or currencies (including currency unit or units) in which principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Debt Securities will be payable and whether the Company or the holders of any such Debt Securities may elect to receive payments in respect of such Debt Securities in a currency or currency unit other than that in which such Debt Securities are stated to be payable; (12) if the amount of principal of, or any premium or interest on, any of such Debt Securities may be determined with reference to an index or pursuant to a formula or other method, the manner in which such amounts will be determined; (13) if other than the principal amount thereof, the portion of the principal amount of such Debt Securities which will be payable upon declaration of the acceleration of the maturity thereof or the method by which such portion shall be determined; (14) provisions, if any, granting special rights to the holders of Debt Securities upon the occurrence of such events as may be specified; (15) any addition to, or modification or deletion of, any Event of Default or any covenant of the Company specified in the Indenture with respect to such Debt Securities; (16) the circumstances under which the Company will pay additional amounts on the Debt Securities held by non-U.S. persons in respect of taxes, assessments or similar charges; (17) whether the Debt Securities will be issued in registered or bearer form or both; (18) the application, if any, of such means of defeasance or covenant defeasance as may be specified for such Debt Securities; (19) whether such Debt Securities are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more temporary or permanent global securities and, if so, the identity of the depositary or its nominee, if any, for such global security or securities and the circumstances under which beneficial owners of interests in the global security may exchange such interests for certificated Debt Securities to be registered in the names of or to be held by such beneficial owners or their nominees; (20) in the case of the Subordinated Indenture, the relative degree to which such Debt Securities of the series shall be senior to or be subordinated to other series of such Debt Securities, and to other indebtedness of the Company, in right of payment, whether such other series of Debt Securities and other indebtedness are outstanding or not; (21) the terms, if any, upon which such Debt Securities may be converted or exchanged into or for Common Stock, Preferred Stock or other securities or property of the Company; (22) any restrictions on the registration, transfer or exchange of the Debt Securities; and (23) any other terms not inconsistent with the terms of the Indentures pertaining to such Debt Securities. (Section 3.1 of each Indenture.) Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Debt Securities will not be listed on any securities exchange.

The number of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock that will be issuable upon the conversion or exchange of any Debt Securities issued with conversion or exchange provisions will be adjusted to prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions, and the nature and amount of the securities, assets or other property to be received upon the conversion or exchange of such Debt Securities will be changed as necessary in the event of any consolidation, merger, combination or similar transaction. The specific provisions will be set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, Debt Securities in registered form will be issued in denominations of U.S.$1,000 or any integral multiples of U.S.$1,000 and Debt Securities in bearer form will be issued in denominations of U.S.$5,000 or any integral multiples of U.S.$5,000. (Section 3.2 of each Indenture.) Where Debt Securities of any series are issued in bearer form, the special restrictions and considerations, including special offering restrictions and material U.S. federal income tax considerations, applicable to any such Debt Securities and to payments in respect of and transfers and exchanges of such Debt Securities will be described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. Debt Securities in bearer form will be transferable by delivery. (Section 3.5 of each Indenture.)

Debt Securities may be sold at a substantial discount below their stated principal amount, bearing no interest or interest at a rate which at the time of issuance is below market rates. Material U.S. federal income tax consequences and special considerations applicable to any such Debt Securities will be described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

If the purchase price of any of the Debt Securities is payable in one or more foreign currencies or currency units or if any Debt Securities are denominated in one or more foreign currencies or currency units or if the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any Debt Securities is payable in one or more foreign currencies or currency units, the restrictions, elections, material U.S. federal income tax considerations and other information with respect to such issue of Debt Securities and such foreign currency or currency units will be set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

If any index is used to determine the amount of payments of principal of, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any series of Debt Securities, material U.S. federal income tax, accounting and other considerations applicable thereto will be described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

The general provisions of the Indentures do not afford holders of the Debt Securities protection in the event of a highly leveraged transaction, restructuring, change in control, merger or similar transaction involving the Company that may adversely affect holders of the Debt Securities.

PAYMENT, REGISTRATION, TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, payments in respect of the Debt Securities will be made in the designated currency at such office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose as the Company may designate from time to time, except that, at the option of the Company, interest payments, if any, on Debt Securities in registered form may be made (i) by checks mailed to the holders of Debt Securities entitled thereto at their registered addresses or (ii) by wire transfer to an account maintained by the holders of the Debt Securities entitled thereto as specified in the Register. (Sections 3.7(a) and 9.2 of each Indenture.) Each payment in respect of the Debt Securities shall be considered to have been made on the date such payment is due if there shall have been sent to the Trustee or paying agent by wire transfer (received by no later than the business day following such due date), or the Trustee or paying agent otherwise holds, on such due date sufficient funds to make such payment. (Section 9.1 of each Indenture.) Unless otherwise indicated in an applicable Prospectus Supplement, scheduled payments of any installment of interest on Debt Securities in registered form will be made to the person in whose name such Debt Security is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest. (Section 3.7(a) of each Indenture.)

Payment in respect of Debt Securities in bearer form will be made in the currency and in the manner designated in the Prospectus Supplement, subject to any applicable laws and regulations, at such paying agencies outside the United States as the Company may appoint from time to time. The paying agents outside the United States, if any, initially appointed by the Company for a series of Debt Securities will be named in the Prospectus Supplement. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Company may at any time designate additional paying agents or rescind the designation of any paying agents, except that, if Debt Securities of a series are issuable in registered form, the Company will be required to maintain at least one paying agent in each place of payment for such series and if Debt Securities of a series are issuable in bearer form, the Company will be required to maintain at least one paying agent in a place of payment outside the United States where Debt Securities of such series and any coupons appertaining thereto may be presented and surrendered for payment. (Section 9.2 of each Indenture.)

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, Debt Securities in registered form will be transferable or exchangeable at the agency of the Company maintained for such purpose as designated by the Company from time to time. (Sections 3.5 and 9.2 of each Indenture.) Debt Securities may be transferred or exchanged without service charge, although the Company may require a holder to pay any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith. (Section 3.5 of each Indenture.)

GLOBAL DEBT SECURITIES

The Debt Securities of a series may be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more fully registered global securities (a "Registered Global Security"). Each Registered Global Security will be registered in the name of a depositary (the "Depositary") or a nominee for the Depositary identified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, will be deposited with such Depositary or nominee or a custodian therefor and will bear a legend regarding the restrictions on exchanges and registration of transfer thereof and any such other matters as may be provided for pursuant to the applicable Indenture. In such a case, one or more Registered Global Securities will be issued in a denomination or aggregate denominations equal to the portion of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Debt Securities of the series to be represented by such Registered Global Security or Securities. (Section 3.3 of each Indenture.) Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Debt Securities in definitive certificated form, a Registered Global Security may not be transferred or exchanged except as a whole by the Depositary for such Registered Global Security to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor Depositary, or except in the circumstances described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. (Section 3.5 of each Indenture.)

The specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to any portion of a series of Debt Securities to be represented by a Registered Global Security will be described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

Upon the issuance of any Registered Global Security, and the deposit of such Registered Global Security with or on behalf of the Depositary for such Registered Global Security, the Depositary will credit on its book-entry registration and transfer system the respective principal amounts of the Debt Securities represented by such Registered Global Security to the accounts of institutions ("Participants") that have accounts with the Depositary. The accounts to be credited will be designated by the underwriters or agents engaging in the distribution of such Debt Securities or by the Company, if such Debt Securities are offered and sold directly by the Company. Ownership of beneficial interests in a Registered Global Security will be limited to Participants or persons that may hold interests through Participants. Ownership of beneficial interests in a Registered Global Security will be shown on, and the transfer of that ownership will be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary for such Registered Global Security or by its nominee. Ownership of beneficial interests in such Registered Global Security by persons who hold through Participants will be shown on, and the transfer of such beneficial interests within such Participants will be effected only through, records maintained by such Participants.

So long as the Depositary for a Registered Global Security, or its nominee, is the owner of such Registered Global Security, such Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the Debt Security represented by such Registered Global Security for all purposes under each Indenture. (Section 3.8 of each Indenture.) Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in such Registered Global Security must rely on the procedures of the Depositary and, if such person is not a Participant, on the procedures of the Participant through which such person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under such Indenture. The Company understands that under existing industry practices, if it requests any action of holders or if an owner of a beneficial interest in a Registered Global Security desires to give or take any instruction or action which a holder is entitled to give or take under the Indenture, the Depositary would authorize the Participants holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take such instruction or action, and such Participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through such Participants to give or take such instruction or action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding through them.

Unless otherwise specified in the Prospectus Supplement, payments with respect to principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Debt Securities represented by a Registered Global Security registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee will be made to such Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of such Registered Global Security. The Company expects that the Depositary for any Debt Securities represented by a Registered Global Security, upon receipt of any payment of principal or interest in respect of such Registered Global Security, will credit immediately Participants' accounts with

8

payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the Registered Global Security as shown on the records of the Depositary. The Company also expects that payments by Participants to owners of beneficial interests in such Registered Global Security held through such Participants will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with securities in bearer form held for the accounts of customers or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such Participants. None of the Company, the respective Trustees or any agent of the Company or the respective Trustees shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial interests in any Registered Global Security, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial interests. (Section 3.8 of each Indenture.)

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, if the Depositary for any Debt Securities represented by a Registered Global Security is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary of such Registered Global Security and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days, the Company will issue Debt Securities in certificated form in exchange for such Registered Global Security. In addition, the Company in its sole discretion may at any time determine not to have any of the Debt Securities of a series represented by one or more Registered Global Securities and, in such event, will issue Debt Securities of such series in certificated form in exchange for all of the Registered Global Securities representing such series of Debt Securities. (Section 3.5 of each Indenture.)

The Debt Securities of a series may also be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more bearer global securities (a "Bearer Global Security") that will be deposited with a depositary, or with a nominee for such depositary, identified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. Any such Bearer Global Securities may be issued in temporary or permanent form. (Section 3.4 of each Indenture.) The specific terms and procedures, including the specific terms of the depositary arrangement, with respect to any portion of a series of Debt Securities to be represented by one or more Bearer Global Securities will be described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

CERTAIN COVENANTS IN THE INDENTURES

Limitations on Liens. Each Indenture will provide that the Company will not, nor will it permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, issue, assume or guarantee any debt for money borrowed (excluding trade accounts payable or accrued liabilities arising in the normal course of business) (herein referred to as "Indebtedness") if such Indebtedness is secured by any mortgage, security interest, pledge, lien or other encumbrance (herein referred to as a "Lien" or "Liens") upon any Principal Property of the Company or of a Restricted Subsidiary or on any shares of stock of any Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Principal Property or shares of stock are owned at the date of each Indenture or thereafter acquired, without in any such case effectively providing that the Debt Securities of any outstanding series which are entitled to the benefits of such provision of the Indenture (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other indebtedness of or guaranteed by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary entitled thereto, subject to applicable priority of payment) shall be secured equally and ratably with, or prior to, such Indebtedness so long as such Indebtedness shall be so secured; provided, however, that the foregoing restriction does not apply to (i) Liens on any property or assets acquired, constructed or improved by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary which are created or assumed prior to, contemporaneously with, or within one year after the later of such acquisition, completion of such construction or improvement or commencement of operation of such property or assets to secure or provide for the payment of all or any part of the purchase price of such property or assets or the cost of such construction or improvement; (ii) Liens on any property or assets existing thereon at the time of the acquisition thereof by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; (iii) Liens on any property, assets or stock of any Person existing at the time such Person is merged with or into or consolidated with the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or at the time of a purchase, lease or other acquisition of the properties, assets or stock of such Person; (iv) Liens on property, assets or securities of a Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary; (v) Liens to secure Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary to the Company or to another Restricted Subsidiary; (vi) Liens in favor of the United States or any State thereof, or any department, agency or instrumentality or political subdivision of the United States or any State thereof, to secure partial progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or statute or to secure any

9

Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or the cost of constructing or improving the property or assets subject to such Liens; (vii) any Lien upon any property or assets in accordance with customary banking practice to secure any Indebtedness incurred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with the exporting of goods to, or between, or the marketing of goods in, or the importing of goods from, foreign countries; (viii) any Lien in existence on the date of each Indenture or created pursuant to an "after-acquired property" clause or similar term in existence on the date of each Indenture or any mortgage, pledge agreement, security agreement or other similar instrument in existence on the date of the Indenture; and (ix) any extension renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements), in whole or in part, of any Lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) to (viii), inclusive; provided, however, that the principal amount of Indebtedness secured thereby shall not exceed the greater of the principal amount of Indebtedness so secured at the time of such extension, renewal or replacement and the original principal amount of the Indebtedness so secured (plus, in each case the aggregate amount of premiums, other payments, costs and expenses required to be paid or incurred in connection with such extension, renewal or replacement); provided, further, however, that such extension, renewal or replacement shall be limited to all or a part of the property (including improvements, alterations and repairs on such property) subject to the encumbrance so extended, renewed or replaced (plus improvements, alterations or repairs on such property). Notwithstanding the foregoing, such restriction does not apply to the issuance, assumption or guarantee by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness secured by a Lien which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions up to an aggregate principal amount which, together with all other Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries secured by Liens which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions (other than Liens permitted under the foregoing exceptions) and the net sale proceeds from Sale and Leaseback Transactions (as defined below) in existence at such time (other than any Sale and Leaseback Transaction permitted by clauses (i) through (v), inclusive, under "Restrictions on Sale and Leaseback Transactions" below), does not at the time exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets. (Section 9.5.)

Restrictions on Sale and Leaseback Transactions. The Indenture will provide that the Company will not, nor will it permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement with any Person providing for the leasing to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Principal Property which Principal Property has been or is to be sold or transferred by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to such Person (herein referred to as a "Sale and Leaseback Transaction") unless (i) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled to incur Indebtedness secured by a Lien on the Principal Property to be leased (as permitted by clauses (i) through (ix), inclusive, under "Limitations on Liens" above) in an amount equal to or exceeding the net sale proceeds from such Sale and Leaseback Transaction without equally and ratably securing the Debt Securities; (ii) the lease is for a term, including any renewal thereof, of not more than three years; (iii) the lease is between the Company and a Restricted Subsidiary or between Restricted Subsidiaries; (iv) such Sale and Leaseback Transaction occurs within one year from the date of acquisition of the Principal Property subject thereto or the date of completion of construction or commencement of operations, whichever is later; or (v) the Company shall, and in any such case the Company covenants that it will, within 180 days of the effective date of any such arrangement apply an amount equal to the net sale proceeds from Sale and Leaseback Transactions to (x) repayment, redemption or retirement of Funded Debt of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or (y) investment in another Principal Property. (Section 9.6) Notwithstanding the foregoing, under each Indenture, the Company may, and may permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, effect any Sale and Leaseback Transaction provided that the net sale proceeds from such Sale and Leaseback Transaction together with the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Indebtedness (other than the Debt Securities) secured by Liens upon Principal Properties not excepted by clause (i) through (ix), inclusive, under "Limitation on Liens" above, do not exceed 15% of the Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

(Section 5.1 of each Indenture.) Events of Default with respect to a specified series of Debt Securities may be deleted from or added to the Indenture or may be modified and, if so deleted, added or modified, will be described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. (Sections 3.1 and 5.1 of each Indenture.)

Each Indenture provides that the relevant Trustee will, within 90 days after the occurrence of a Default that is continuing with respect to the Debt Securities of any series, give to the holders of the Debt Securities of that series notice of all Defaults known to it unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided that except in the case of a Default in payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Debt Securities of that series, such Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if it in good faith determines that withholding such notice is in the interests of holders of the Debt Securities of that series. (Section 6.6 of each Indenture.) "Default" means any event which is, or after notice or passage of time, or both, would be, an Event of Default. (Section 1.1 of each Indenture.)

Each Indenture provides that, if an Event of Default specified therein (other than an Event of Default of the type described in clause (d) of the second preceding paragraph) occurs with respect to the Debt Securities of any series and is continuing, the Trustee for such series or the holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Debt Securities of that series (calculated as provided for in each Indenture) may declare the principal of (or, if the Debt Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such portion of the principal amount specified in the Prospectus Supplement) and accrued interest, if any, on all the Debt Securities of that series to be due and payable and upon such declaration, such principal (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such portion of the principal amount specified in the Prospectus Supplement) and interest, if any, shall be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default of the type described in clause (d) of the second preceding paragraph occurs with respect to the Debt Securities of any series and is continuing, then the principal of (or, if the Debt Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, the applicable portion of such principal amount) and accrued interest, if any, on all the Debt Securities of that series shall be immediately due and payable without any declaration or act on the part of the Trustee for such series or any holder of such Debt Securities.

(Section 5.2 of each Indenture.)

Each Indenture provides that the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of any series of Debt Securities by written notice to the Trustee for such series may waive, on behalf of the holders of all Debt Securities of such series, any past Default or Event of Default with respect to that series and its consequences except a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any Debt Security or with respect to a covenant or provision that cannot be amended or modified without consent of each holder of such series of Debt Securities adversely affected. (Section 5.7 of each Indenture.)

Reference is made to the Prospectus Supplement relating to each series of Debt Securities that are Original Issue Discount Securities for the particular provisions relating to acceleration of the maturity of a portion of the principal amount of such Original Issue Discount Securities upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the continuation thereof.

12

Each Indenture provides that, if a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities of each series affected (with each such series voting as a class) may, subject to certain limited conditions, direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee for such series, or exercising any trust or power conferred on such Trustee. (Section 5.8 of each Indenture.)

Each Indenture includes a covenant that the Company will file annually with the relevant Trustee a certificate as to the presence or absence of certain defaults under the terms of such Indenture. (Section 9.7 of each Indenture.)

MODIFICATION OF THE INDENTURES

Each Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the relevant Trustee to enter into one or more supplemental indentures without the consent of the holders of any of the Debt Securities in order (i) to evidence the succession of another entity to the Company and the assumption of the covenants and obligations of the Company under the Debt Securities and such Indenture by such successor to the Company; (ii) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the holders of all or any series of Debt Securities or surrender any right or power conferred on the Company by such Indenture; (iii) to add additional Events of Default with respect to any series of Debt Securities; (iv) to add to or change any provisions to such extent as necessary to facilitate the issuance or administration of Debt Securities in bearer form or to facilitate the issuance or administration of Debt Securities in global form; (v) to change or eliminate any provision affecting only Debt Securities not yet issued; (vi) to secure the Debt Securities; (vii) to establish the form or terms of Debt Securities of any series; (viii) to evidence and provide for successor Trustees or to add or change any provisions to such extent as necessary to permit or facilitate the appointment of a separate Trustee or Trustees for specific series of Debt Securities; (ix) to permit payment in respect of Debt Securities in bearer form in the United States to the extent allowed by law; (x) to correct or supplement any inconsistent provisions or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under such Indenture, provided that any such action does not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any holder of Debt Securities of any series then outstanding; (xi) to cure any ambiguity, correct any mistake or comply with any mandatory provision of law;
(xii) in the case of the Subordinated Indenture, to modify the subordination provisions thereof in a manner not adverse to the holders of Subordinated Debt Securities of any series then outstanding; (xiii) to make provision with respect to any conversion or exchange rights of holders not adverse to the holders of any Debt Securities of any series then outstanding with such conversion or exchange rights, including providing for the conversion or exchange of Debt Securities into Common Stock or Preferred Stock or other securities or property of the Company; or (xiv) to effect the qualification of such Indenture under the TIA or to add provisions expressly required under the TIA. (Section 8.1 of each Indenture.)

Each Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Company and the relevant Trustee, with the consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Debt Securities of all series adversely affected by such supplemental indenture (voting as one class), to execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions to or changing or eliminating any of the provisions of such Indenture or any supplemental indenture or modifying the rights of the holders of Debt Securities of such series, except that, without the consent of the holder of each Debt Security so affected, no such supplemental indenture may: (i) change the time for payment of principal or premium, if any, or interest on any Debt Security; (ii) reduce the principal on any Debt Security, or change the manner in which the amount of any of the foregoing is determined; (iii) reduce the interest rate, or reduce the amount of premium, if any, payable upon the redemption of any Debt Security or change the manner in which the amount of the premium, if any, or interest is determined;
(iv) reduce the amount of principal payable upon acceleration of the maturity of any Original Issue Discount or Indexed Security; (v) change the currency or currency unit in which any Debt Security or any premium or interest thereon is payable; (vi) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to any Debt Security after such payment has become due; (vii) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Debt Securities of any series, the consent of whose holders is required for modification or amendment of such Indenture or for waiver of compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or for waiver of certain defaults, or reduce the quorum or voting

requirements applicable to meetings of holders of Debt Securities issuable in bearer form; (viii) change the obligation of the Company to maintain an office or agency in the places and for the purposes specified in such Indenture; (ix) in the case of the Subordinated Indenture, modify the subordination provisions thereof in a manner adverse to the holders of Subordinated Debt Securities of any series then outstanding; (x) modify the provisions that set forth the provisions in each Indenture that may not be changed without the consent of the holder of each Debt Security affected thereby or (xi) make any change adversely affecting any rights of the holders to convert or exchange convertible or exchangeable Debt Securities. (Section 8.2 of each Indenture.)

SUBORDINATION UNDER THE SUBORDINATED INDENTURE

In the Subordinated Indenture, the Company has covenanted and agreed, and each holder of a Subordinated Debt Security by accepting such Debt Security will covenant and agree, that, unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement relating to the Subordinated Debt Securities of a particular series, any Subordinated Debt Securities issued thereunder are subordinate and junior in right of payment to all Senior Debt (including any Senior Debt Securities) to the extent provided in the Subordinated Indenture. Upon any payment or distribution to creditors in a voluntary or involuntary liquidation or dissolution of the Company or in any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property, the holders of Senior Debt will first be entitled to receive payment in full of principal of and interest, if any, and other amounts then payable on such Senior Debt, or such payment must have been duly provided for, before the holders of Subordinated Debt Securities will be entitled to receive or retain any payment (other than payment in the form of Permitted Junior Securities) in respect of the principal of or interest, if any, on, or other amounts on or in respect of, the Subordinated Debt Securities. (Section 15.2 of the Subordinated Indenture.)

Upon the maturity (by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise) of any Senior Debt and receipt of written notice thereof by the Trustee, all principal thereof, interest thereon and other amounts then due in connection therewith must first be paid in full, or such payment must have been duly provided for, before any payment (other than in the form of Permitted Junior Securities) may be made on account of the principal of or interest on, or other amounts on or in respect of, the Subordinated Debt Securities or to redeem or acquire any of the Subordinated Debt Securities. Furthermore, no such payments in respect of the Subordinated Debt Securities may be made if at the time of such payment there exists a default in the payment of any principal of or interest on any Senior Debt that has not been cured or waived and the benefits of this provision have not been waived, and written notice of such default has been received by the Trustee. In addition, during the continuance of any other event of default under the Credit Agreement (as defined below) permitting the lenders thereunder to accelerate the maturity thereof, which event of default shall not have been cured or waived or ceased to exist, upon notice to the Subordinated Trustee of such event of default, no payment may be made by the Company with respect to the principal of or interest on, or other amounts on or in respect of, the Subordinated Debt Securities or to redeem or acquire any of the Subordinated Debt Securities, provided that if the loans then outstanding under the Credit Agreement have not been declared to be immediately due and payable within 180 days after the occurrence of such default, payments on the Subordinated Debt Securities (including any missed payments) may be made thereafter, and provided, further, that only one such 180-day payment blockage period may be commenced within any consecutive 365-day period. In addition, a payment blockage period may not be commenced with respect to any event of default under the Credit Agreement that existed or was continuing on the date that any previous payment blockage period was commenced (whether or not within any such consecutive 365-day period), unless such event of default was cured or waived for at least 90 consecutive days and, in the case of any such waiver, no payment was made by the Company to the lenders under the Credit Agreement in connection with such waiver other than of amounts then due under the Credit Agreement. (Section 15.3 of the Subordinated Indenture.)

In the event of the acceleration of the maturity of any Subordinated Debt Securities, the holders of all Senior Debt outstanding at the time of such acceleration will first be entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts then due on or in respect of such Senior Debt (whether or not an event of default has occurred under such Senior Debt or the maturity of any such Senior Debt has been accelerated), or such payment must have

14

been duly provided for, before the holders of such Subordinated Debt Securities will be entitled to receive payment on account of such Debt Securities. (Section 15.3 of the Subordinated Indenture.)

"Debt" in the Subordinated Indenture means, with respect to any Person, (i) every obligation of such Person for money borrowed; (ii) every obligation of such Person evidenced by bonds, debentures, promissory notes or other similar instruments, including obligations so evidenced that are incurred in connection with the acquisition of property, assets or businesses; (iii) every reimbursement obligation of such Person with respect to letters of credit, bankers' acceptances or similar facilities issued for the account of such Person; and (iv) every obligation of the type referred to in clauses (i) through
(iii) of another Person the payment of which such Person has guaranteed or for which such Person is responsible, as obligor or otherwise; provided that Debt shall not include accounts payable or liabilities to trade creditors of any entity.

"Permitted Junior Securities" means shares of stock of any class of the Company or any successor entity, and other securities of the Company or any successor entity that are subordinated in right of payment to all Senior Debt that may be outstanding at the time of issuance or delivery of such securities to substantially the same extent as, or to a greater extent than, the Subordinated Debt Securities are so subordinated.

"Senior Debt" means the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on (including interest that, but for the filing of a petition initiating any proceeding pursuant to any bankruptcy law with respect to the Company, would accrue on such obligations, whether or not such claim is allowed in such bankruptcy proceeding) and all other monetary obligations of every kind or nature due on or in connection with any Debt of the Company (other than the Subordinated Debt Securities), whether outstanding on the date of the Subordinated Indenture or thereafter created, incurred or assumed, unless, in the case of any particular Debt, the instrument creating or evidencing the same or pursuant to which the same is outstanding expressly provides that such Debt shall not be senior in right of payment to the Subordinated Debt Securities or to other Debt which is pari passu with, or subordinated to, the Subordinated Debt Securities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, "Senior Debt" shall include the Debt, interest and all other monetary obligations of any kind or nature due under the Competitive Advance and Revolving Credit Facility Agreement, dated as of April 29, 1994, between the Company, the Lenders named therein and The Chase Manhattan Bank (as successor to Chemical Bank), as agent, as amended, supplemented, waived, otherwise modified, extended, refinanced, refunded, replaced or renewed from time to time (the "Credit Agreement"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Senior Debt shall not include (i) Debt of the Company to any of its subsidiaries for money borrowed or advanced from such subsidiary or (ii) amounts owed to trade creditors in the ordinary course of business.

The Subordinated Indenture places no limitation on the amount of additional Senior Debt that may be incurred by the Company. The Company expects from time to time to incur additional indebtedness constituting Senior Debt.

The Subordinated Indenture provides that the foregoing subordination provisions, insofar as they relate to any particular issue of Subordinated Debt Securities, may be changed prior to such issuance. Any such change would be described in the Prospectus Supplement relating to such Subordinated Debt Securities. (Section 3.1 of the Subordinated Indenture.)

DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Defeasance and Discharge. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Prospectus Supplement relating to the Debt Securities of a particular series, the Company will be discharged from any and all obligations in respect of the Debt Securities of or within any series (except for certain obligations to register the transfer or exchange of Debt Securities, to replace stolen, lost or mutilated Debt Securities, to convert or exchange Debt Securities to maintain paying agencies and to hold monies for payment in trust) upon the deposit with the relevant Trustee, in trust, of money and/or Government Obligations which through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide money in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and each installment of interest on such Debt Securities at the maturity of such payments in accordance with the terms of the such Indenture and such Debt Securities. (Sections 3.1 and 4.4 of each Indenture.) Such a trust may only be established if, among other things, the Company delivers

15

to the relevant Trustee an officers' certificate and opinion of counsel (who may be counsel to the Company) stating that (A) either (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or
(ii) since the date of the Indenture there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, to the effect that holders of such Debt Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred and (B) all conditions precedent in the applicable Indenture relating to such defeasance have been complied with. (Section 4.6 of the Indenture.)

Defeasance of Certain Covenants and Certain Events of Default. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Prospectus Supplement relating to the Debt Securities of a particular series, the Company may omit to comply with certain covenants applicable to the Debt Securities of or within any series and any Event of Default described in clause (c) and clause (e) under the caption "Events of Default, Notice and Certain Rights on Default" above, which noncompliance shall not be deemed to be a Default or Event of Default under such Indenture and such Debt Securities, upon the deposit with the relevant Trustee, in trust, of money and/or Government Obligations which through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide money in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and each installment of interest on such Debt Securities at the maturity of such payments in accordance with the terms of such Indenture and such Debt Securities. The obligations of the Company under such Indenture and such Debt Securities, other than with respect to the covenants referred to above, and the Events of Default, other than the Events of Default referred to above, shall remain in full force and effect. (Sections 3.1 and 4.5 of each Indenture.) Such a trust may only be established if, among other things, the Company has delivered to the relevant Trustee an officer's certificate and opinion of counsel (who may be counsel to the Company) to the effect that (A) holders of such Debt Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred, and (B) all conditions precedent in the applicable Indenture relating to such covenant defeasance have been complied with. (Section 4.6 of the Indenture.)

In addition, with respect to the Subordinated Indenture, in order to be discharged or omit compliance with certain covenants as described above, no default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Senior Debt shall have occurred and be continuing or no other event of default with respect to the Senior Debt shall have occurred and be continuing and shall have resulted in such Senior Debt becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date it would have become due and payable. (Section 4.6 of the Subordinated Indenture.)

In the event the Company exercises its option to omit compliance with certain covenants of the Indenture with respect to such Debt Securities as described in the preceding paragraphs and such Debt Securities are declared due and payable because of the occurrence of any Event of Default other than an Event of Default described in clause (c) or (e) under the caption "Events of Default, Notice and Certain Rights on Default" above, the amount of money and Government Obligations on deposit with the relevant Trustee will be sufficient to pay amounts due on such Debt Securities at the time of their stated maturity but may not be sufficient to pay amounts due on such Debt Securities at the time of the acceleration resulting from such Event of Default. However, the Company would remain liable for any such deficiency.

NOTICES

Notices to holders of registered Debt Securities will be given by mail to the addresses of such holders as they may appear in the Register. (Section 1.6 of each Indenture.)

OWNER OF DEBT SECURITIES

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Prospectus Supplement relating to the Debt Securities of a particular series, the Company, the Trustees and any agent of the Company or the Trustees may treat the person in whose name a Debt Security in registered form is registered, and may treat the bearer of a Debt

16

Security in bearer form, as the absolute owner thereof (whether or not such Debt Security may be overdue) for the purpose of receiving payment and for all other purposes. (Section 3.8 of each Indenture.)

GOVERNING LAW

The Indentures and the Debt Securities will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. (Section 1.12 of each Indenture.)

THE TRUSTEE

The First National Bank of Chicago, a national banking association, is the Senior Trustee under the Senior Indenture and the Subordinated Trustee under the Subordinated Indenture. The Company maintains banking relationships in the ordinary course of business with The First National Bank of Chicago, which is also a lender under the Company's existing revolving credit facility. Pursuant to the provisions of the TIA, upon a default under the Senior Indenture, the Subordinated Indenture or such credit facility, The First National Bank of Chicago may be deemed to have a conflicting interest, by virtue of its acting as the Trustee under the Indentures and acting as a lender to the Company, thereby requiring it to resign and be replaced by a successor Trustee under one or both of the Indentures.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK OF THE COMPANY

AUTHORIZED AND OUTSTANDING CAPITAL STOCK

Pursuant to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, the authorized capital stock of the Company is 76,000,000 shares, consisting of:

(a) 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, without par value (the "Preferred Stock"), of which 175,000 shares were designated as Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock; and

(b) 75,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $1 per share (the "Common Stock").

As of December 31, 1996, the Company had outstanding 55,554,670 shares of Common Stock. Holders of Common Stock have received a dividend of the Company's Rights (as defined under "-- Rights Agreement"), entitling the holders, when exercisable, to purchase shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock in certain circumstances pursuant to the Rights Agreement (as defined under "-- Rights Agreement"). Each share of Common Stock is currently accompanied by one-half of a Right. See "-- Rights Agreement." No shares of Preferred Stock are currently outstanding.

No holders of any class of the Company's capital stock are entitled to preemptive rights.

In general, the classes of authorized capital stock are afforded preferences with respect to dividends and liquidation rights in the order listed above. The Board of Directors of the Company is empowered, without approval of the stockholders, to cause the Preferred Stock to be issued in one or more series, with the numbers of shares of each series and the rights, preferences and limitations of each series to be determined by it. The specific matters that may be determined by the Board of Directors include the dividend rights, voting rights, redemption rights, liquidation preferences, if any, conversion and exchange rights, retirement and sinking fund provisions and other rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock (or of the entire class of Preferred Stock if none of such shares have been issued), the number of shares constituting such series and the terms and conditions of the issue thereof. The descriptions set forth below do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the (i) Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended, and as such is further amended at the time of the issuance of the Preferred Stock (the "Restated Certificate of Incorporation") and (ii) the By-laws of the Company as in effect at such time (the "By-laws").

17

COMMON STOCK

Subject to any preferential rights of any Preferred Stock created by the Board of Directors, each outstanding share of Common Stock is entitled to such dividends as the Board of Directors may declare from time to time out of funds legally available therefor. The holders of Common Stock possess exclusive voting rights in the Company, except to the extent the Board of Directors specifies voting power with respect to any Preferred Stock issued. Except as hereinafter described, holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock, but do not have any right to cumulate votes in the election of directors. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, holders of Common Stock will be entitled to receive on a pro-rata basis any assets remaining after provision for payment of creditors and after payment of any liquidation preferences to holders of Preferred Stock. The Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the Chicago Stock Exchange and the Pacific Stock Exchange under the symbol "MDA."

The Common Stock Transfer Agent and Registrar is Harris Trust Company of New York.

PREFERRED STOCK

The particular terms of any series of Preferred Stock offered hereby will be set forth in the Prospectus Supplement relating thereto. The rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including dividend rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, retirement and sinking fund provisions and liquidation preferences, if any, of the Preferred Stock of each series will be fixed or designated pursuant to a certificate of designation adopted by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof. The terms, if any, on which shares of any series of Preferred Stock are convertible or exchangeable into Common Stock will also be set forth in the Prospectus Supplement relating thereto. Such terms may include provisions for conversion or exchange, either mandatory, at the option of the holder, or at the option of the Company, in which case the number of shares of Common Stock to be received by the holders of Preferred Stock would be calculated as of a time and in the manner stated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. The description of the terms of a particular series of Preferred Stock that will be set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the certificate of designation relating to such series.

On May 29, 1996, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a dividend of one Preferred Stock Purchase Right (a "Right") to holders of record of Common Stock outstanding as of the close of business on July 8, 1996, when exercisable, to purchase shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock in certain circumstances pursuant to the Rights Agreement. See "-- Rights Agreement."

DEPOSITARY SHARES

General

The Company may, at its option, elect to offer receipts for fractional interests ("Depositary Shares") in Preferred Stock, rather than full shares of Preferred Stock. In such event, receipts ("Depositary Receipts") for Depositary Shares, each of which will represent a fraction (to be set forth in the Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular series of Preferred Stock) of a share of a particular series of Preferred Stock, will be issued as described below.

The shares of any series of Preferred Stock represented by Depositary Shares will be deposited under a Deposit Agreement (the "Deposit Agreement") between MAPCO Inc. and a depositary to be named by the Company in a Prospectus Supplement (the "Depositary"). Subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement, each owner of a Depositary Share will be entitled, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a share of Preferred Stock represented by such Depositary Share, to all the rights and preferences of the Preferred Stock represented thereby (including dividend, voting, redemption, subscription and liquidation rights). The following summary of certain provisions of the Deposit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the Deposit Agreement, including the definitions therein of certain terms. Whenever particular sections of the Deposit Agreement are referred to, it is intended that such sections shall be incorporated herein by reference. Copies of the forms of Deposit

18

Agreement and Depositary Receipt are filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part, and the following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibits.

Dividends and Other Distributions

The Depositary will distribute all cash dividends or other cash distributions received in respect of the Preferred Stock to the record holders of Depositary Shares relating to such Preferred Stock in proportion to the numbers of such Depositary Shares owned by such holders.

In the event of a distribution other than in cash, the Depositary will distribute property received by it to the record holders of Depositary Shares in an equitable manner, unless the Depositary determines that it is not feasible to make such distribution, in which case the Depositary may sell such property and distribute the net proceeds from such sale to such holders. The amount distributed in any of the foregoing cases may be reduced by any amounts required to be withheld by the Company or the Depositary on account of taxes.

Withdrawal of Preferred Stock

Upon surrender of Depositary Receipts at a designated office of the Depositary, the owner of the Depositary Shares evidenced thereby will be entitled to delivery at such office of certificates evidencing Preferred Stock (but only in whole shares of Preferred Stock) represented by such Depositary Shares. If the Depositary Receipts delivered by the holder evidence a number of Depositary Shares in excess of the number of whole shares of Preferred Stock to be withdrawn, the Depositary will deliver to such holder at the same time a new Depositary Receipt evidencing such excess number of Depositary Shares.

Redemption of Depositary Shares

If a series of Preferred Stock represented by Depositary Shares is subject to redemption, the Depositary Shares will be redeemed from the proceeds received by the Depositary resulting from the redemption, in whole or in part, of such series of Preferred Stock held by the Depositary. The redemption price per Depositary Share will be equal to the applicable fraction of the redemption price per share payable with respect to such series of the Preferred Stock. Whenever the Company redeems shares of Preferred Stock held by the Depositary, the Depositary will redeem as of the same redemption date the number of Depositary Shares representing shares of Preferred Stock so redeemed. If fewer than all the Depositary Shares are to be redeemed, the Depositary Shares to be redeemed will be selected by lot, pro rata or by any other equitable method as may be determined by the Depositary.

Voting the Preferred Stock

Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, the Depositary will mail the information contained in such notice of meeting to the record holders of the Depositary Shares relating to such Preferred Stock. Each record holder of such Depositary Shares on the record date (which will be the same date as the record date for the Preferred Stock) will be entitled to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of the Preferred Stock represented by such holder's Depositary Shares. The Depositary will endeavor, insofar as practicable, to vote the amount of the Preferred Stock represented by such Depositary Shares in accordance with such instructions, and the Company will agree to take all reasonable action which may be deemed necessary by the Depositary in order to enable the Depositary to do so. The Depositary will abstain from voting shares of the Preferred Stock to the extent it does not receive specific instructions from the holder of Depositary Shares representing such Preferred Stock.

Amendment and Termination of the Deposit Agreement

The form of Depositary Receipt evidencing the Depositary Shares and any provision of the Deposit Agreement may at any time be amended by agreement between the Company and the Depositary. However, any amendment which materially and adversely alters the rights of the holders of Depositary Shares will not be effective unless such amendment has been approved by the holders of at least a majority of the Depositary

19

Shares then outstanding. The Deposit Agreement will only terminate if (i) all outstanding Depositary Shares have been redeemed or (ii) there has been a final distribution in respect of the Preferred Stock, including in connection with any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company and such distribution has been distributed to the holders of Depositary Receipts.

Resignation and Removal of Depositary

The Depositary may resign at any time by delivering to the Company notice of its election to do so, and the Company may at any time remove the Depositary, any such resignation or removal to take effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary and its acceptance of such appointments. Such successor Depositary must be appointed within 60 days after delivery of the notice of resignation or removal and must be a bank or trust company having its principal office in the United States and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000.

Charges of Depositary

The Company will pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. The Company will pay charges of the Depositary in connection with the initial deposit of the Preferred Stock and issuance of Depositary Receipts, all withdrawals of shares of Preferred Stock by owners of the Depositary Shares and any redemption of the Preferred Stock. Holders of Depositary Receipts will pay other transfer and other taxes and governmental charges and such other charges as they are expressly provided in the Deposit Agreement to be for their accounts.

Miscellaneous

The Depositary will forward all reports and communications from the Company which are delivered to the Depositary and which the Company is required or otherwise determines to furnish to the holders of the Preferred Stock.

Neither the Depositary nor the Company will be liable under the Deposit Agreement to holders of Depositary Receipts other than for its gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. Neither the Company nor the Depositary will be obligated to prosecute or defend any legal proceeding in respect of any Depositary Shares or Preferred Stock unless satisfactory indemnity is furnished. The Company and the Depositary may rely upon written advice of counsel or accountants, or upon information provided by persons presenting Preferred Stock for deposit, holders of Depositary Receipts or other persons believed to be competent and on documents believed to be genuine.

PROVISIONS OF RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BY-LAWS

Certain provisions of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of the Company, as well as the Rights Agreement and certain employment continuation agreements, may delay or make more difficult unsolicited acquisitions or changes of control of the Company. It is believed that such provisions will enable the Company to develop its business in a manner that will foster its long-term growth without disruption caused by the threat of a takeover not deemed by its Board of Directors to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Such provisions could have the effect of discouraging third parties from making proposals involving an unsolicited acquisition or change of control of the Company, although such proposals, if made, might be considered desirable by a majority of the Company's shareholders. Such provisions may also have the effect of making it more difficult for third parties to cause the replacement of the current management of the Company without the concurrence of the Board of Directors. These provisions include among others, (i) the availability of capital stock for issuance from time to time at the discretion of the Board of Directors (see "-- Authorized and Outstanding Capital Stock" and "-- Preferred Stock"), (ii) classified board of directors, (iii) supermajority voting requirements, (iv) prohibitions against shareholders calling a special meeting of shareholders, (v) requirements for advance notice for raising business or making nominations at shareholders' meetings, and (vi) the ability of the Board of Directors to increase the size of the board and to appoint directors to fill newly created directorships. The descriptions set forth herein

20

of such provisions do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws, which have been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part.

Classified Board of Directors

The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws provide that the Board of Directors be divided into three classes as nearly equal in number as possible, whose three year terms of office expire at different times in annual succession. Directors may not be removed from office prior to the expiration of their term without cause. A classified board makes it more difficult for shareholders to change a majority of the directors.

Supermajority Vote Requirements

The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation requires that a merger or consolidation with, or sale or lease of assets to, a beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Company's outstanding voting stock be approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of 75% of the Company's voting stock, unless the Board of Directors has approved a memorandum of understanding with such beneficial owner before the 5% level is reached. The effect of this provision is similar to
Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (see "Delaware General Corporation Law" below). This provision may make it more difficult for a 5% beneficial owner to effect transactions with the Company and may encourage persons interested in acquiring the Company to negotiate in advance with the Company's Board of Directors prior to acquiring a 5% interest. It is possible that such provision could make it more difficult to accomplish transactions which shareholders may otherwise deem to be in their interest.

Special Meetings

The By-laws provide that, unless otherwise prescribed by statute or the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, special meetings of the shareholders can be called only by the Chairman of the Board of Directors or by resolution of the Board of Directors. Furthermore, the By-laws of the Company provide that only such business as is specified in the notice of any such special meeting of shareholders may come before such meeting.

Advance Notice for Raising Business or Making Nominations at Meetings

The By-laws of the Company establish an advance notice procedure for shareholder proposals to be brought before an annual meeting of shareholders and for nominations by shareholders of candidates for election as directors at an annual or special meeting at which directors are to be elected. Only such business may be conducted at an annual meeting of shareholders as has been brought before the meeting by, or at the direction of, the Board of Directors, or by a shareholder who has given to the Secretary of the Company timely written notice, in proper form, of the shareholder's intention to bring that business before the meeting. The chairman of such meeting will have the authority to make such determinations. Only persons who are nominated by, or at the direction of, the Board of Directors, or who are nominated by a shareholder who has given timely written notice, in proper form, to the Secretary prior to a meeting at which directors are to be elected will be eligible for election as directors of the Company.

To be timely, notice of business to be brought before an annual meeting or nominations of candidates for election as directors at an annual meeting is required to be received by the Secretary of the Company not less than 60 nor more than 90 days in advance of the meeting (or, in the event that less than 70 days' notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to stockholders, not later than 10 days after the first public notice or disclosure of the date of such annual meeting).

The notice of any nomination for election as a director is required to set forth the name and address of the shareholder who intends to make the nomination and of the person or persons to be nominated; the age and the principal occupation or employment of each nominee; the class and number of shares beneficially owned by such shareholder and by each nominee; and such other information regarding each nominee proposed by

21

such shareholder as are required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission; and the consent of each nominee to be named as a nominee and serve as a director if so elected.

Number of Directors; Filling of Vacancies

The Restated Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of the Company limit the total number of directors to 12 and provide that newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors (or any vacancy) shall be filled by a vote of a majority of directors then in office. Accordingly, the Board of Directors of the Company may be able to prevent any shareholder from obtaining majority representation on the Board of Directors by increasing the size of the board and filling the newly created directorships with its own nominees.

RIGHTS AGREEMENT

Rights

On May 29, 1996, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a dividend of one right (the "Rights") for each share of Common Stock outstanding as of the close of business on July 8, 1996 (the "Record Date"), and with respect to Common Stock issued thereafter until the Distribution Date (as defined below), and, in certain circumstances, with respect to Common Stock issued after the Distribution Date. As a result of the two-for-one stock split declared by the Board of Directors of the Company on September 10, 1996, each share of Common Stock is currently accompanied by one-half of a Right.

Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company a unit consisting of one two-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, without par value (the "Participating Preferred"), at a price of $200 per one two-hundredth of a share of Participating Preferred, subject to adjustment (the "Purchase Price"). Each one-half Right entitles the registered holder to purchase one-half unit at a price of $100, subject to adjustment. The description and terms of the Rights are set forth in a Rights Agreement dated as of May 29, 1996 (the "Rights Agreement") between the Company and Harris Trust Company of New York, as Rights Agent. A copy of the Rights Agreement has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. The description set forth below does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Rights Agreement.

Initially, the Rights will be attached to all Common Stock certificates representing shares then outstanding, and no separate Right Certificate will be distributed. The Rights will separate from the Common Stock and a "Distribution Date" will occur upon the earlier of (i) ten business days following a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons (an "Acquiring Person") has acquired, or obtained the right to acquire, beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (the "Stock Acquisition Date"), or (ii) ten business days (or, if determined by the Board of Directors, a specified or unspecified later date) following the commencement or announcement of a tender offer or exchange offer that would result in a person or group beneficially owning 15% or more of such outstanding shares of Common Stock.

Until the Distribution Date, (i) the Rights will be evidenced by the Common Stock certificates and will be transferred with and only with such Common Stock certificates, (ii) new Common Stock certificates issued after July 8, 1996 will contain a notation incorporating the Rights Agreement by reference and (iii) the surrender for transfer of any certificates from Common Stock outstanding will also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Stock represented by such certificate. As soon as practicable after the Distribution Date, Right Certificates will be mailed to holders of record of the Common Stock as of the Close of Business on the Distribution Date and, thereafter, the separate Right Certificate alone will represent the Rights. Except as otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, only shares of Common Stock issued prior to the Distribution Date will be issued with Rights.

The Rights are not exercisable until the Distribution Date and will expire at the Close of Business on July 7, 2006, unless earlier redeemed by the Company as described below.

22

In the event that a person or group becomes an Acquiring Person (except pursuant to a tender offer for all outstanding Common Stock determined to be at a fair price and otherwise in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders by at least a majority of the members of the Board of Directors who are not officers of the Company or an Acquiring Person) proper provision shall be made so that each holder of a Right (other than the Acquiring Person) will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise that number of shares of Common Stock (or, in certain circumstances, cash, a reduction in the Purchase Price, Common Stock, other equity securities of the Company, debt securities of the Company, other assets or a combination thereof) having a market value (as defined in the Rights Agreement) of two times the Purchase Price of the Right.

In the event that, at any time following the Stock Acquisition Date, the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction (except certain transactions with a person who becomes an Acquiring Person as a result of a tender offer described in the preceding paragraph) or more than 50% of its assets, cash flow or earning power is sold, proper provision shall be made so that each holder of a Right will thereafter have the right to receive, upon exercise thereof at the then current exercise price of the Right, that number of shares of common stock of the acquiring company which at the time of such transaction would have a market value (as defined in the Rights Agreement) of two times the Purchase Price of the Right. In the event that, after the Stock Acquisition Date, the Company were the surviving Corporation in a merger and its Common Stock were changed or exchanged, proper provision shall be made so that each holder of a Right will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise that number of shares of common stock of the Company having a market value of two times the exercise price of the Right. The events set forth in this paragraph and in the preceding paragraph are referred to as the "Triggering Events."

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, following the occurrence of any of the events set forth in the preceding paragraphs, all Rights that are, or (under certain circumstances specified in the Rights Agreement) were, beneficially owned by any Acquiring Person will be null and void. A person will not become an Acquiring Person if the Board of Directors of the Company determines that such person or group became an Acquiring Person inadvertently and such person or group promptly divests itself of sufficient number of shares of Common Stock so that such person or group is no longer an Acquiring Person.

The Purchase Price payable, and the number of shares of Participating Preferred or other securities or property issuable, upon exercise of the Rights are subject to adjustment from time to time to prevent dilution (i) in the event of a stock dividend on, or a subdivision, combination or reclassification of, the Participating Preferred, (ii) upon the grant to holders of the Participating Preferred of certain rights or warrants to subscribe for Participating Stock or convertible securities at less than the current market price of the Participating Preferred, or (iii) upon the distribution to holders of the Participating Preferred of evidences of indebtedness or assets (excluding regular quarterly cash dividends) or of subscription rights or warrants (other than those referred to above).

With certain exceptions, no adjustment in the Purchase Price will be required until cumulative adjustments amount to at least 1% of the Purchase Price. No fractional Shares will be issued (other than fractions which are integral multiples of one two-hundredth of a share of Participating Preferred which may, upon the election of the Company, be evidenced by depositary receipts) and, in lieu thereof, an adjustment in cash will be made based on the market price of the Participating Preferred on the last trading date prior to the date of exercise.

At any time prior to the earlier of the Stock Acquisition Date and the Final Expiration Date (as defined in the Rights Agreement), the Board of Directors of the Company may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $.01 per Right. Immediately upon the action of the Board of Directors ordering redemption of the Rights, the Rights will terminate and the only right of the holders of Rights will be to receive the $.01 redemption price.

At any time after a person becomes an Acquiring Person and prior to the acquisition by such Person of 50% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Board of Directors of the Company may exchange the Rights (other than Rights beneficially owned by such Person which have become void), in whole or part, at an exchange ratio of one share of Common Stock per Right (subject to adjustment). The

23

Company, at its option, may substitute one two-hundredth of a share of Participating Preferred (or other series of substantially similar preferred stock of the Company) for each share of Common Stock to be exchanged.

Until a Right is exercised, the holder thereof, as such, will have no rights as a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends.

Other than those provisions relating to the principal economic terms of the Rights, any of the provisions of the Rights Agreement may be amended by the Board of Directors of the Company prior to the Stock Acquisition Date. From and after the Stock Acquisition Date, the provisions of the Rights Agreement may be amended by the Board in order to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement defective or inconsistent provisions, to shorten or lengthen any time period (other than time periods relating to when the Rights may be redeemed) under the Rights Agreement or to make changes which do not adversely affect the interests of, or diminish the benefits intended to be afforded to, holders of Rights (excluding the interests of any Acquiring Person); provided, however, that no amendment to lengthen the time period governing redemption shall be made at such time as the Rights are not redeemable and any amendment to lengthen any other time period must be for the purpose of protecting, enhancing or clarifying the rights of or the benefits to the holders of the Rights.

Certain Effects of the Rights Agreement

The Rights Agreement is designed to protect shareholders of the Company in the event of unsolicited offers to acquire the Company and other coercive takeover tactics which, in the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company, could impair its ability to represent shareholder interests. The provisions of the Rights Agreement may render an unsolicited takeover of the Company more difficult or less likely to occur or might prevent such a takeover, even though such takeover may offer the Company's shareholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing market rate and may be favored by a majority of the shareholders of the Company.

DELAWARE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW

The terms of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law apply to the Company since it is a Delaware corporation. Pursuant to Section 203, with certain exceptions, a Delaware corporation may not engage in any of a broad range of business combinations, such as mergers, consolidations and sales of assets, with an "interested stockholder" for a period of three years from the date that such person became an interested stockholder unless (a) the transaction that results in the person's becoming an interested stockholder or the business combination is approved by the board of directors of the corporation before the person becomes an interested stockholder, (b) upon consummation of the transaction which results in the shareholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owns 85% or more of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers and shares owned by certain employee stock plans or (c) on or after the date the person becomes an interested stockholder, the business combination is approved by the corporation's board of directors and by holders of at least two-thirds of the corporation's outstanding voting stock, excluding shares owned by the interested stockholder, at a meeting of shareholders. Under Section 203, an "interested stockholder" is defined as any person, other than the corporation and any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary, that is (a) the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation or (b) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and was the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation at any time within the three-year period immediately prior to the date on which it is sought to be determined whether such person is an interested stockholder. Section 203 does not apply to a corporation that so provides in an amendment to its certificate of incorporation or by-laws passed by a majority of its outstanding shares at any time. Such stockholder action does not become effective for 12 months following its adoption and would not apply to persons who were already interested stockholders at the time of the amendment. The Restated Certificate of Incorporation does not exclude the Company from the restrictions imposed under Section 203.

24

Under certain circumstances, Section 203 makes it more difficult for a person who would be an "interested stockholder" to effect various business combinations with a corporation for a three-year period, although the shareholders may elect to exclude a corporation from the restrictions imposed thereunder. The provisions of Section 203 may encourage companies interested in acquiring the Company to negotiate in advance with the Company's Board of Directors, because the shareholder approval requirement would be avoided if a majority of the directors then in office approve either the business combination or the transaction which results in the shareholder becoming an interested shareholder. Such provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in the management of the Company. It is further possible that such provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish transactions which shareholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interest.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

The Company may issue Warrants, including Warrants to purchase Debt Securities ("Debt Warrants"), Preferred Stock, Common Stock or other of its securities. Warrants may be issued independently or together with any such securities of the Company and may be attached to or separate from such securities of the Company. The Warrants are to be issued under warrant agreements (each a "Warrant Agreement") to be entered into between the Company and a bank or trust company, as warrant agent (the "Warrant Agent"), all as shall be set forth in the Prospectus Supplement relating to Warrants being offered pursuant thereto. The description of the terms of the Warrants that are set forth below and that will be set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Warrant Agreement and warrant certificate relating to such Warrants.

DEBT WARRANTS

The applicable Prospectus Supplement will describe the terms of Debt Warrants offered thereby, the Warrant Agreement relating to such Debt Warrants and the warrant certificates representing such Debt Warrants, including the following: (i) the specific designation of such Debt Warrants; (ii) the Debt Securities of the Company for which such Debt Warrants are exercisable; (iii) the aggregate number of such Debt Warrants; (iv) the principal amount of Debt Securities purchasable upon exercise of each Debt Warrant, and the price or prices at which such Debt Warrants will be issued; (v) the procedures and conditions relating to the exercise of such Debt Warrants; (vi) the designation and terms of any related Debt Securities of the Company with which such Debt Warrants are issued, and the number of such Debt Warrants issued with each such Debt Security; (vii) the date, if any, on and after which such Debt Warrants and the related securities of the Company will be separately transferable; (viii) the date on which the right to exercise such Debt Warrants shall commence, and the date on which such right shall expire; (ix) the maximum or minimum number of such Debt Warrants which may be exercised at any time; (x) if applicable, a discussion of material United States Federal income tax considerations; (xi) any other terms of such Debt Warrants and terms, procedures and limitations relating to the exercise of such Debt Warrants; and (xii) the terms of the securities of the Company purchasable upon exercise of such Debt Warrants. Prior to the exercise of their Debt Warrants, holders of Debt Warrants exercisable for Debt Securities will not have any of the rights of holders of the Debt Securities purchasable upon such exercise and will not be entitled to payments of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on the Debt Securities purchasable upon such exercise.

OTHER WARRANTS

The Company may issue other Warrants. The applicable Prospectus Supplement will describe the following terms of any such other Warrants in respect of which this Prospectus is being delivered: (i) the title of such Warrants; (ii) the securities (which may include Preferred Stock or Common Stock) for which such Warrants are exercisable; (iii) the price or prices at which such Warrants will be issued; (iv) if applicable, the designation and terms of the Preferred Stock or Common Stock with which such Warrants are issued, and the number of such Warrants issued with each such share of Preferred Stock or Common Stock; (v) if applicable, the date on and after which such Warrants and the related Preferred Stock or Common Stock will be separately transferable; (vi) if applicable, a discussion of material United States Federal income tax

25

considerations; and (vii) any other terms of such Warrants, including terms, procedures and limitations relating to the exchange and exercise of such Warrants. The applicable Prospectus Supplement will also set forth (a) the amount of securities called for by such Warrants, and if applicable, the amount of Warrants outstanding, and (b) information relating to provisions, if any, for a change in the exercise price or the expiration date of such Warrants and the kind, frequency and timing of any notice to be given. Prior to the exercise of their Warrants for shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock, holders of such Warrants will not have any rights of holders of the Preferred Stock or Common Stock purchasable upon such exercise and will not be entitled to dividend payments, if any, or voting rights of the Preferred Stock or Common Stock purchasable upon such exercise.

EXERCISE OF WARRANTS

Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase for cash or other consideration such principal amount or such number of securities of the Company at such exercise price as shall in each case be set forth in, or be determinable as set forth in, the Prospectus Supplement relating to the Warrants offered thereby. Warrants may be exercised as set forth in the Prospectus Supplement relating to the Warrants offered thereby at any time up to the close of business on the expiration date set forth in such Prospectus Supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date (or such later expiration date as may be extended by the Company), unexercised Warrants will become void.

Upon receipt of payment and the warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed at the corporate trust office of the Warrant Agent or any other office indicated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Company will, as soon as practicable, forward the securities purchasable upon such exercise. If less than all of the Warrants represented by such warrant certificate are exercised, a new warrant certificate will be issued for the remaining Warrants.

MODIFICATIONS

The Debt Warrant Agreement and the terms of the Debt Warrants and the Debt Warrant Certificates may be amended by the Company and the Debt Warrant Agent, without the consent of the holders, for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, or of curing, correcting or supplementing any defective or inconsistent provision therein or in any other manner which the Company may deem necessary or desirable and which will not adversely affect the interests of the holders in any material respect.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Company may sell any of the Securities being offered hereby in any one or more of the following ways from time to time: (i) through agents; (ii) to or through underwriters; (iii) through dealers; and (iv) directly to purchasers, or through a combination of such methods.

The distribution of the Securities may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices.

Sales of Common Stock offered hereby may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions on the New York Stock Exchange or in negotiated transactions or a combination of such methods of sale, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at other negotiated prices.

Offers to purchase Securities may be solicited by agents designated by the Company from time to time. Any such agent involved in the offer or sale of the Securities in respect of which this Prospectus is delivered will be named, and any commissions payable by the Company to such agent will be set forth, in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. Unless otherwise indicated in such Prospectus Supplement, any such agent will be acting on a reasonable best efforts basis for the period of its appointment. Any such agent may be deemed to be an underwriter, as that term is defined in the Securities Act, of the Securities so offered and sold.

26

If Securities are sold by means of an underwritten offering, the Company will execute an underwriting agreement with an underwriter or underwriters at the time an agreement for such sale is reached, and the names of the specific managing underwriter or underwriters, as well as any other underwriters, the respective amounts underwritten and the terms of the transaction, including commissions, discounts and any other compensation of the underwriters and dealers, if any, will be set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement which will be used by the underwriters to make resales of the Securities in respect of which this Prospectus is being delivered to the public. If underwriters are utilized in the sale of any Securities in respect of which this Prospectus is being delivered, such Securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at fixed public offering prices or at varying prices determined by the underwriters at the time of sale. Securities may be offered to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or directly by one or more underwriters. If any underwriter or underwriters are utilized in the sale of the Securities, unless otherwise indicated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the underwriting agreement will provide that the obligations of the underwriters are subject to certain conditions precedent and that the underwriters with respect to a sale of Securities will be obligated to purchase all such Offered Securities if any are purchased.

In connection with offers of Depositary Shares, Preferred Stock or Common Stock, the Company may grant to the underwriters options to purchase additional shares of Depositary Shares, Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be, to cover over-allotments, if any, at the initial public offering price (with additional underwriting commissions or discounts), as may be set forth in the Prospectus Supplement relating thereto. If the Company grants any over-allotment option, the terms of such over-allotment option will be set forth in the Prospectus Supplement for such Depositary Shares, Preferred Stock or Common Stock.

If a dealer is utilized in the sale of the Securities in respect of which this Prospectus is delivered, the Company will sell such Securities to the dealer as principal. The dealer may then resell such Securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by such dealer at the time of resale. Any such dealer may be deemed to be an underwriter, as such term is defined in the Securities Act, of the Securities so offered and sold. The name of the dealer and the terms of the transaction will be set forth in the Prospectus Supplement relating thereto.

Offers to purchase Securities may be solicited directly by the Company and the sale thereof may be made by the Company directly to institutional investors or others, who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any resale thereof. The terms of any such sales will be described in the Prospectus Supplement relating thereto.

Securities may also be offered and sold, if so indicated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, in connection with a remarketing upon their purchase, in accordance with a redemption or repayment pursuant to their terms, or otherwise, by one or more firms ("remarketing firms"), acting as principals for their own accounts or as agents for the Company. Any remarketing firm will be identified and the terms of its agreement, if any, with the Company and its compensation will be described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. Remarketing firms may be deemed to be underwriters, as that term is defined in the Securities Act, in connection with the Securities remarketed thereby.

If so indicated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Company may authorize agents and underwriters to solicit offers by certain institutions to purchase Securities from the Company at the public offering price set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on the date or dates stated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. Such delayed delivery contracts will be subject to only those conditions set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. A commission indicated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement will be paid to underwriters and agents soliciting purchases of Securities pursuant to delayed delivery contracts accepted by the Company.

Agents, underwriters, dealers and remarketing firms may be entitled under relevant agreements with the Company to indemnification by the Company against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments which such agents, underwriters, dealers and remarketing firms may be required to make in respect thereof.

27

Each series of Securities will be a new issue and, other than the Common Stock which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, will have no established trading market. The Company may elect to list any series of Securities on an exchange, and in the case of the Common Stock, on any additional exchange, but, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Company shall not be obligated to do so. Therefore, no assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the trading market for any of the Securities.

Agents, underwriters, dealers, and remarketing firms may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for, the Company and its subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business.

LEGAL MATTERS

Unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement relating to particular Securities, the validity of the Securities offered hereby will be passed upon for the Company by Debevoise & Plimpton, New York, New York, and for the underwriters, dealers or agents, if any, by Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson (a partnership including professional corporations), New York, New York.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended, provides in regard to the indemnification of directors and officers as follows:

(S) 145. Indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents; insurance

A. A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

B. A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

II-1


C. To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) or (b) of this section, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

D. Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this section (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this section. Such determination shall be made
(1) by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (2) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (3) by the stockholders.

E. Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this section. Such expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the board of directors deems appropriate.

F. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other subsections of this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

G. A corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under this section.

H. For purposes of this section, references to "the corporation" shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this section with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

I. For purposes of this section, references to "other enterprises" shall include employee benefit plans; references to "fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to "serving at the request of the corporation" shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee, or agent with respect to any employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner "not opposed to the best interests of the corporation" as referred to in this section.

J. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this section shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has

II-2


ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

Article VIII of the Company's By-Laws provides in regard to the indemnification of directors and officers as follows:

SECTION 1. The Corporation shall indemnify and advance expenses to, in the manner and to the full extent permitted by law, any person (or the estate of any person) who was or is a party to, or is threatened to be made a party to, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether or not by or in the right of the Corporation, and whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise, by reason of (or arising in part out of) the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or fiduciary of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. Unless otherwise permitted by law, the indemnification provided for herein shall be made only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination, in the manner provided by law, that indemnification of or advance of expenses to the director, officer, employee or fiduciary is proper in the circumstances. The Corporation may, to the full extent permitted by law, purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any such person against any liability which may be asserted against him or her. To the full extent permitted by law, the indemnification provided herein shall include expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement of an action, suit or proceeding. The indemnification provided herein shall not be deemed to limit the right of the Corporation to indemnify any other person for any such expenses to the full extent permitted by law, nor shall it be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any person seeking indemnification from the Corporation may be entitled under any agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person's official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. If any provision of this Article VIII shall be held invalid, the remaining provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected thereby.

Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended, provides in regard to the limitation of liability of directors and officers as follows:

(b) In addition to the matters required to be set forth in the certificate of incorporation by subsection (a) of this section, the certificate of incorporation may also contain any or all of the following matters:

* * * *

(7) A provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director: (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (iii) under section 174 of this Title; or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. No such provision shall eliminate or limit the liability of a director for any act or omission occurring prior to the date when such provision becomes effective. All references in this paragraph to a director shall also be deemed to refer (x) to a member of the governing body of a corporation which is not authorized to issue capital stock, and
(y) to such other person or persons, if any, who, pursuant to a provision of the certificate of incorporation in accordance with section 141(a) of this title, exercise or perform any of the powers or duties otherwise conferred or imposed upon the board of directors by this title.

Article Seventh of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides in regard to the limitation of liability of directors as follows:

ARTICLE SEVENTH. A Director of this Corporation shall not be liable to the Corporation or its Stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a Director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law as the same exists or may hereafter be amended.

II-3


The Company's directors and officers are also insured against claims arising out of the performance of their duties in such capacities. The Company has indemnity agreements with its directors, officers and certain key employees that require the Company to indemnify these individuals for liabilities incurred by them while acting in the capacity of an officer, director or employee of the Company, to the full extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware.

Reference is made to Sections 9 and 10 of the forms of Underwriting Agreements filed as Exhibits 1.1 and 1.2 to this Registration Statement and incorporated herein by reference and to the form of Distribution Agreement filed as Exhibit 1.3 to this Registration Statement and incorporated herein by reference for the Company's and the Underwriters' and the Company's and the Agent's respective proposed agreements to indemnify each other, and the Underwriters' and Agent's proposed agreement to indemnify the Company's directors, officers and certain other persons in certain circumstances and to provide contribution in circumstances where indemnification is unavailable.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or
Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

II-5


(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
(4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(5) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1993, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

The undersigned registrant hereby further undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

EXHIBIT 1.1

DRAFT 2/24/97

MAPCO INC.

$[aggregate principal amount of debt securities]

UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT

_____ __, 199_

To the Representative(s) of the several Underwriters named in the respective Terms Agreements hereinafter described.

Dear Sirs:

MAPCO Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), proposes to issue and sell up to $______________ aggregate principal amount of its _____________________ (the "Securities"), from time to time in one or more offerings on the terms and conditions determined at the time of the sale. The Securities are to be issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of ______ __, 1997 (the "Indenture") to be entered into between the Company and [trustee] as trustee (the "Trustee"), the form of which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (as defined below). Each issue of Securities may vary as to the aggregate principal amount, maturity date, interest rate or rates and timing of payments thereof, redemption provisions, conversion provisions and sinking fund requirements, if any, and any other variable terms or rights which the Indenture contemplates may be set forth in the Securities as issued from time to time.

This confirms the agreement that, whenever the Company determines to make an offering of Securities through one or more underwriters (an "Underwriter" or the "Underwriters") for whom you (the "Representative(s)" or "you") are acting as Representatives, it will enter into a Terms Agreement (a "Terms Agreement") with you and such Underwriter or Underwriters providing for the sale of such Securities to, and the purchase and offering thereof by, you and such Underwriter or Underwriters. The Terms Agreement shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto and shall specify such applicable information as is indicated in such Exhibit and such other information as the parties executing such Terms Agreement shall determine. The Terms Agreement will incorporate by reference the provisions of this Agreement (as defined below). Each offering of Securities will be governed by this Agreement, as supplemented by the applicable Terms Agreement, and the Agreement and such Terms Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, each Underwriter participating in the offering of the Securities. Unless the context otherwise requires, as used herein, the term "Agreement" shall refer to this Underwriting Agreement, dated as of ___________, 199__, as executed by the Company, as supplemented by the applicable Terms Agreement, as executed by the Company and by, and on behalf of, the Representatives and the Underwriter or Underwriters which are parties thereto.

The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Commission") a registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-20837)
relating to the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities


Act"), and the offering thereof from time to time in accordance with Rule 415 under the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Securities Act (the "Securities Act Regulations"), which registration statement has been declared effective by the Commission and copies of which have heretofore been delivered to you. The Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust Indenture Act"). Such registration statement, in the form in which it was declared effective, as amended through the date hereof, including all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein and the information, if any, deemed to be part thereof pursuant to Rule 434 of the Securities Act Regulations (or otherwise) through the date hereof, and any registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act Regulations, including all exhibits thereto is hereinafter referred to as the "Registration Statement." The Company proposes to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act Regulations a supplement (the "Prospectus Supplement") to the Base Prospectus (as defined below) relating to the Securities and the prospectus dated __________, 1997 (the "Base Prospectus") relating to the Securities, and has previously advised you of all further information (financial and other) with respect to the Company set forth therein. The Base Prospectus together with the Prospectus Supplement, in their respective forms on the date hereof (being the forms in which they are to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act Regulations), including all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein and the information, if any, deemed to be part thereof pursuant to Rule 434 of the Securities Act Regulations through the date hereof, are hereinafter referred to as the "Prospectus," except that if any revised prospectus or prospectus supplement shall be provided to the Underwriters by the Company for use in connection with the offering of the Securities which differs from the Prospectus (whether or not such revised prospectus or prospectus supplement is required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act Regulations), the term "Prospectus" shall also refer to such revised prospectus or prospectus supplement, as the case may be, from and after the time it is first provided to the Underwriters for such use. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this Agreement to documents, financial statements and schedules and other information which is "contained," "included," "stated," "described" or "referred to" in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (and all other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such documents, financial statements and schedules and other information which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be; and all references in this Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to mean and include the filing of any document under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), after the date of this Agreement which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be. If the Company elects to rely on Rule 434 of the Securities Act Regulations, all references to the Prospectus shall be deemed to include, without limitation, the form of prospectus and the abbreviated term sheet, taken together, provided to the Underwriters by the Company in reliance on Rule 434 of the Securities Act Regulations (the "Rule 434 Prospectus"). If the Company files a registration statement to register a portion of the Securities and relies on Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act Regulations for such registration statement to become effective upon filing with the Commission (the "Rule 462 Registration Statement"), then any reference to "Registration Statement" herein shall be deemed to be to both the registration statement referred to above (No. 333-20837) and the

-2-

Rule 462 Registration Statement, as each such registration statement may be amended pursuant to the Securities Act.

1. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS OF THE COMPANY. The Company represents and warrants to each Underwriter as of the date hereof, as of the date of the applicable Terms Agreement and as of the Closing Time referred to in Section 3 hereof, and agrees with each Underwriter as follows:

(a) The Company meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the Securities Act and the Securities Act Regulations and the conditions for use of Form S-3, as set forth in the general instructions thereto, have been satisfied. The Company has filed with the Commission the Registration Statement and has filed such amendments thereto as may have been required to the date hereof. The Registration Statement (which includes any post-effective amendment thereto) has been declared effective by the Commission; no stop order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement has been issued; and no proceeding for that purpose has been initiated or threatened by the Commission and the Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act;

(b) The Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Indenture, at the time the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto became effective and as of the date hereof, as of the date of the applicable Terms Agreement and as of the Closing Time, complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Securities Act Regulations and the Trust Indenture Act and the rules and regulations thereunder (the "Trust Indenture Act Regulations"). The Registration Statement, at the time the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto became effective and as of the date hereof, as of the date of the applicable Terms Agreement and as of the Closing Time, did not, and will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Prospectus, at the time the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto became effective and as of the date hereof, as of the date of the applicable Terms Agreement and as of the Closing Time (unless the term "Prospectus" refers to a prospectus which has been provided to the Underwriters by the Company for use in connection with the offering of the Securities which differs from the Prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act Regulations, in which case also at the time the Prospectus is first provided to the Underwriters for such use) did not, and will not, contain any untrue statement a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The two preceding sentences do not apply to (i) that part of the Registration Statement which shall constitute the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification ("Form T-1") of the Trustee under the Trust Indenture Act or (ii) information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (or any supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company through the Representatives by or on behalf of any Underwriter specifically for use therein (the "Underwriters' Information"). For purposes of this Section 1(b), all references to the Registration Statement, any post-effective amendments thereto and the Prospectus shall be deemed to include, without

- 3 -

limitation, any electronically transmitted copies thereof, including, without limitation, any copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system ("EDGAR");

- 16 -

or Oklahoma State authorities or (iii) an outbreak or escalation of hostilities or a declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war or such a material adverse change in general economic, political or financial conditions (or the effect of international conditions on the financial markets in the United States shall be such) as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus.

All opinions, letters, evidence and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be deemed to be in compliance with the provisions hereof only if they are in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters.

6. TERMINATION. The obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be terminated by the Representatives, in their absolute discretion, by notice given to and received by the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities if, prior to that time, any of the events described in Sections
5(i), 5(j) or 5(k) shall have occurred.

7. DEFAULTING UNDERWRITERS. (a) If, at the Closing Time, any Underwriter or Underwriters default in the performance of its or their obligations under the applicable Terms Agreement, the Representatives may make arrangements for the purchase of such Securities by other persons satisfactory to the Company and the Representatives, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by the Closing Time, then each remaining non- defaulting Underwriter shall be severally obligated to purchase the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase at the Closing Time in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the name of each remaining non-defaulting Underwriter in Schedule I of the applicable Terms Agreement bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining non-defaulting Underwriters in Schedule I of the applicable Terms Agreement; provided, however, that the remaining non-defaulting Underwriters shall not be obligated to purchase any of the Securities at the Closing Time if the aggregate principal amount of Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase on such date exceeds one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased at the Closing Time, and any remaining non-defaulting Underwriter shall not be obligated to purchase in total more than 110% of the principal amount of the Securities which it agreed to purchase at the Closing Time pursuant to the terms of
Section 2. If the foregoing maximums are exceeded and the remaining Underwriters or other underwriters satisfactory to the Representatives and the Company do not elect to purchase, within 36 hours after such default, the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses to the extent set forth in Sections 8 and 12 and except that the provisions of Sections 9 and 10 shall not terminate and shall remain in effect. As used in this Agreement, the term "Underwriter" includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any party not listed in Schedule I of the applicable Terms Agreement who, pursuant to this Section 7, purchases Securities which a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase.

- 17 -

(b) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of any liability it may have for damages caused by its default. If other Underwriters are obligated or agree to purchase the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter, either the Representatives or the Company may postpone the Closing Time for up to seven full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Company or counsel for the Underwriters may be necessary in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus that effects any such changes.

8. REIMBURSEMENT OF UNDERWRITERS' EXPENSES. If (a) the Company shall fail to tender the Securities for delivery to the Underwriters for any reason permitted under this Agreement or (b) the Underwriters shall decline to purchase the Securities for any reason permitted under this Agreement (including the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6), and the Terms Agreement, the Company shall reimburse the Underwriters for the fees and expenses of their counsel and for such other out-of-pocket expenses as shall have been reasonably incurred by them in connection with this Agreement and the Terms Agreement and the proposed purchase of the Securities, and upon demand the Company shall pay the full amount thereof to the Representatives. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7 by reason of the default of one or more Underwriters, the Company shall not be obligated to reimburse the Underwriters on account of those expenses.

9. INDEMNIFICATION. (a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively referred to for purposes of this Section 9(a) and Section 10 as an Underwriter), from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof (including, without limitation, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to purchases and sales of the Securities), to which that Underwriter may become subject, whether commenced or threatened, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment or supplement thereto or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus, any preliminary prospectus supplement or the Prospectus (or amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and shall reimburse each Underwriter promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against or appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any preliminary prospectus, preliminary prospectus supplement, Registration Statement (as originally filed or in any amendment or

- 18 -

supplement thereto) or the Prospectus (as originally filed or in any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with any Underwriters' Information; and provided, further, that with respect to any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from the preliminary prospectus or preliminary prospectus supplement, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 9(a) shall not inure to the benefit of any Underwriter to the extent that the sale to the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action was a sale by such Underwriter and any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action of or with respect to such Underwriter results from the fact that both (A) to the extent required by applicable law, a copy of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) was not sent or given to such person at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Securities to such person (if the Company has previously furnished copies thereof sufficiently in advance of the Closing Time to allow for distribution of the Prospectus in a timely manner) and (B) the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from the preliminary prospectus or preliminary prospectus supplement was corrected in the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) unless, in either case, such failure to deliver the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) was a result of non-compliance by the Company with Section 4(c).

(b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively referred to for purposes of this Section 9(b) and Section 10 as the Company), from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the Company may become subject, whether commenced or threatened, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (as originally filed or in any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statements of material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus, any preliminary prospectus supplement or the Prospectus (as originally filed or in any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter expressly for use therein, and shall reimburse the Company promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against or appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 9 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party pursuant to Section 9(a) or 9(b), notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it

- 19 -

from any liability which it may have under this Section 9 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and, provided, further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 9. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 9 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action (in which case, if such indemnified party is indemnified pursuant to
Section 9(a) above, counsel to the indemnified party shall be selected by the Representatives and if such indemnified party is indemnified pursuant to Section 9(b) above, counsel to the indemnified party shall be selected by the Company), but the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by such indemnified party unless (i) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party and the payment of fees and expenses by the indemnifying party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (ii) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel for the indemnified party) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party,
(iii) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel for the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, or (iv) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the election of the indemnifying party to assume the defense of the action, in each of which cases the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties. Each indemnified party, as a condition of the indemnity agreements contained in Sections 9(a) and 9(b), shall use all reasonable efforts to cooperate with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such action or claim. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent, but if settled with its written consent or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could reasonably have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding

- 20 -

and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

The obligations of the Company and the Underwriters in this
Section 9 and in Section 10 are in addition to any other liability that the Company or the Underwriters, as the case may be, may otherwise have, including in respect of any breaches of representations, warranties and agreements made herein by any such party.

10. CONTRIBUTION. If the indemnification provided for in
Section 9 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 9(a) or 9(b), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities purchased under the applicable Terms Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by or on behalf of the Company, on the one hand, and the total discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters with respect to the Securities purchased under the applicable Terms Agreement, on the other, bear to the total gross proceeds from the sale of the Securities under the applicable Terms Agreement, in each case as set forth in the table in the Prospectus Supplement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to the Company or information supplied by the Company on the one hand or to any Underwriters' Information on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission.

The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 10 were to be determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 10 shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 10, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the Securities purchased by it under the applicable Terms Agreement exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or

- 21 -

alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 10 are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

11. PERSONS ENTITLED TO BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Underwriters, the Company, and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Underwriters and the Company and their respective successors and the controlling persons and officers and directors referred to in Sections 9 and 10 and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of the Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

12. EXPENSES. The Company agrees with the Underwriters to pay
(a) the costs incident to the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of the Securities and any taxes payable in that connection; (b) the costs incident to the preparation, printing and filing under the Securities Act of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and any amendments and exhibits thereto; (c) the costs of distributing the Registration Statement as originally filed and each amendment thereto and any post-effective amendments thereof (including, in each case, exhibits), any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus, all as provided in this Agreement; (d) the costs of printing, reproducing and distributing this Agreement and any other underwriting and selling group documents by mail, telex or other means of communications; (e) the filing fees incident to securing any required review by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. of the terms of sale of the Securities; (f) any applicable listing or other fees, if any; (g) the fees and expenses of qualifying the Securities under the securities laws of the several jurisdictions as provided in Section 4(i) and of preparing, printing and distributing Blue Sky Memoranda and Legal Investment Surveys (including related fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters);
(h) fees charged by securities rating services for rating the Securities, if any; (i) all fees and expenses of the Trustee; and (j) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement; provided, that except as otherwise provided in this Section 12 and in Section 8, the Underwriters shall pay their own costs and expenses, including the costs and expenses of their counsel, any transfer taxes on the Securities which they may sell and the expenses of advertising any offering of the Securities made by the Underwriters.

13. SURVIVAL. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and the Underwriters contained in this Agreement and the applicable Terms Agreement or made by or on behalf on them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement and the applicable Terms Agreement, shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Securities under the applicable Terms Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any of them or any person controlling any of them.

- 22 -

14. NOTICES, ETC. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and:

(a) notices to the Underwriters shall be directed to the Underwriters at the address indicated in the applicable Terms Agreement; and

(b) notices to the Company shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to the address of the Company set forth in the Registration Statement, Attention: Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary.

Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements shall take effect at the time of receipt thereof. The Company shall be entitled to act and rely upon any request, consent, notice or agreement given or made on behalf of the Underwriters by the Representatives.

15. DEFINITIONS OF CERTAIN TERMS. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) "business day" means any day on which the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. is open for trading and (b) "subsidiary" has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 of the Securities Act Regulations.

16. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

17. COUNTERPARTS. Each Terms Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

18. HEADINGS. The headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of, or to affect the meaning or interpretation of, this Agreement.

ANNEX A

[Form of Initial Comfort Letter]

The Company shall have furnished to the Representatives a letter of Deloitte & Touche LLP, addressed to the Representatives and dated the date of the Terms Agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives, substantially to the effect set forth below:

(i) they are independent certified public accountants with respect to the Company within the meaning of Rule 101 of the Code of Professional Conduct of the AICPA and its interpretations and rulings;

(ii) in their opinion, the audited financial statements
[and pro forma financial information] included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (each as amended or supplemented) or the documents incorporated by reference therein and reported on by them comply in form in all material respects with the accounting requirements of the Exchange Act and the related published rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder;

(iii) based upon a reading of the latest unaudited financial statements made available by the Company, the procedures of the AICPA for a review of interim financial information as described in Statement of Auditing Standards No. 71, reading of minutes and inquiries of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters and certain other limited procedures requested by the Representatives and described in detail in such letter, nothing has come to their attention that causes them to believe that (A) any unaudited financial statements included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (each as amended or supplemented) or the documents incorporated by reference therein do not comply as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements, (B) any material modifications should be made to the unaudited financial statements included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (each as amended or supplemented) or the documents incorporated by reference therein for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis substantially consistent with that of the audited financial statements included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (each as amended or supplemented) or the documents incorporated by reference therein or (C) the information included under the headings ["Summary--Summary Financial Data", "Selected Financial Data", "Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges" and "Management--Executive Compensation"] is not in conformity with the disclosure requirements of Regulation S-K;

(iv) based upon the procedures detailed in such letter with respect to the period subsequent to the date of the last available balance sheet, including reading of minutes and inquires of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters, nothing has come to their attention that causes them to believe that (A) at a specified date not more than five business days prior to the date of such letter, there was any change in capital stock, increase in long-term debt or decrease in net current assets as compared with the amounts shown in the _________ ___, 199__ unaudited balance sheet included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (each as amended or supplemented) or the documents incorporated by


reference therein or (B) for the period from ______ __, 199__ to a specified date not more than five business days prior to the date of such letter, there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in net sales, income from operations, or net income, except in all instances for changes, increases or decreases that the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (each as amended or supplemented) or the documents incorporated by reference therein discloses have occurred or may occur or which are set forth in such letter, in which case the letter shall be accompanied by an explanation by the Company as to the significance thereof unless said explanation is deemed unnecessary by the Representatives;

(v) they have performed certain other specified procedures as a result of which they determined that certain information of an accounting, financial or statistical nature (which is limited to accounting, financial or statistical information derived from the general accounting records of the Company) set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (each as amended or supplemented) or the documents incorporated by reference therein agrees with the accounting records of the Company, excluding any questions of legal interpretation
[; and] [.]

[(vi) on the basis of a reading of the unaudited pro forma financial information included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (each as amended or supplemented) or the documents incorporated by reference therein, carrying out certain specified procedures, reading of minutes and inquiries of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters and proving the arithmetic accuracy of the application of the pro forma adjustments to the historical amounts in the pro forma financial information, nothing came to their attention which caused them to believe that the pro forma financial information does not comply in form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of Rule 11-02 of Regulation S-X or that the pro forma adjustments have not been properly applied to the historical amounts in the compilation of such information.]

DRAFT 2/24/97

MAPCO INC.

Common Stock
(Par Value $1.00 Per Share)

UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT

_____ __, 199_

To the Representative(s) of the several Underwriters named in the respective Pricing Agreements hereinafter described.

Dear Sirs:

MAPCO Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), proposes to issue and sell certain shares (the "Shares") of the Company's Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "Common Stock"), from time to time in one or more offerings on the terms and conditions determined at the time of the sale.

This confirms the agreement that, whenever the Company determines to make an offering of the Shares through one or more underwriters (an "Underwriter" or the "Underwriters") for whom you (the "Representative(s)" or "you") are acting as Representatives, it will enter into a Pricing Agreement (a "Pricing Agreement") with you and such Underwriter or Underwriters providing for the sale of such Shares to, and the purchase and offering thereof by, you and such Underwriter or Underwriters. The Pricing Agreement shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto and shall specify such applicable information as is indicated in such Exhibit and such other information as the parties executing such Pricing Agreement shall determine. The Pricing Agreement will incorporate by reference the provisions of this Agreement (as defined below). Each offering of Shares will be governed by this Agreement, as supplemented by the applicable Pricing Agreement, and this Agreement and such Pricing Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, each Underwriter participating in the offering of the Shares. Unless the context otherwise requires, as used herein, the term "Agreement" shall refer to this Underwriting Agreement, dated as of ___________, 199_, as executed by the Company, as supplemented by the applicable Pricing Agreement, as executed by the Company and by, and on behalf of, the Representatives and the Underwriter or Underwriters which are parties thereto. The number of Shares to be issued from time to time will be specified in such Pricing Agreements (with respect to such Pricing Agreements, the Shares shall be referred to as "Firm Shares"). If specified in such Pricing Agreements, the Company may grant to the Underwriters the right to purchase at their election an additional number of Shares, specified in such Pricing Agreements as provided in Section 2 hereof (the "Optional Shares"). The Firm Shares and the Optional Shares, if any, which the Underwriters elect to purchase pursuant to Section 2 hereof are herein collectively called the "Designated Shares."

The terms and rights of any particular issuance of Designated Shares shall be as specified in the Pricing Agreement relating thereto.


The obligation of the Company to issue and sell any of the Shares and the obligation of any of the Underwriters to purchase any of the Shares shall be evidenced by the Pricing Agreement with respect to the Designated Shares specified therein. Each Pricing Agreement shall specify the aggregate number of the Firm Shares, the maximum number of Optional Shares, if any, the initial public offering price of such Firm and Optional Shares or the manner of determining such price, the purchase price to the Underwriters of such Designated Shares, the names of the Underwriters of such Designated Shares, the names of the Representatives of such Underwriters, the number of such Designated Shares to be purchased by each Underwriter and the commission, if any, payable to the Underwriters with respect thereto and shall set forth the date, time and manner of delivery of such Firm and Optional Shares, if any, and payment therefor and such other information as the parties executing such Pricing Agreement shall determine. A Pricing Agreement shall be in the form of an executed writing (which may be in counterparts), and may be evidenced by an exchange of telegraphic communications or any other rapid transmission device designed to produce a written record of communications transmitted. The obligations of the Underwriters under this Agreement and each Pricing Agreement shall be several and not joint.

The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Commission") a registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-20837)
relating to the registration of the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and the offering thereof from time to time in accordance with Rule 415 under the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Securities Act (the "Securities Act Regulations"), which registration statement has been declared effective by the Commission and copies of which have heretofore been delivered to you. Such registration statement, in the form in which it was declared effective, as amended through the date hereof, including all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein and the information, if any, deemed to be part thereof pursuant to Rule 434 of the Securities Act Regulations (or otherwise) through the date hereof, and any registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act Regulations, including all exhibits thereto is hereinafter referred to as the "Registration Statement." The Company proposes to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act Regulations a supplement (the "Prospectus Supplement") to the Base Prospectus (as defined below) relating to the Shares and the prospectus dated __________, 1997 (the "Base Prospectus") relating to the Shares, and has previously advised you of all further information (financial and other) with respect to the Company set forth therein. The Base Prospectus together with the Prospectus Supplement, in their respective forms on the date hereof (being the forms in which they are to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act Regulations), including all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein and the information, if any, deemed to be part thereof pursuant to Rule 434 of the Securities Act Regulations through the date hereof, are hereinafter referred to as the "Prospectus," except that if any revised prospectus or prospectus supplement shall be provided to the Underwriters by the Company for use in connection with the offering of the Shares which differs from the Prospectus (whether or not such revised prospectus or prospectus supplement is required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act Regulations), the term "Prospectus" shall also refer to such revised prospectus or prospectus supplement, as the case may be, from

-2-

and from time it is first provided to the Underwriters for such use. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this Agreement to documents, financial statements and schedules and other information which is "contained," "included," "stated," "described" or "referred to" in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (and all other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such documents, financial statements and schedules and other information which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be; and all references in this Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to mean and include the filing of any document under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), after the date of this Agreement which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be. If the Company elects to rely on Rule 434 of the Securities Act Regulations, all references to the Prospectus shall be deemed to include, without limitation, the form of prospectus and the abbreviated term sheet, taken together, provided to the Underwriters by the Company in reliance on Rule 434 of the Securities Act Regulations (the "Rule 434 Prospectus"). If the Company files a registration statement to register a portion of the Shares and relies on Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act Regulations for such registration statement to become effective upon filing with the Commission (the "Rule 462 Registration Statement"), then any reference to "Registration Statement" herein shall be deemed to be to both the registration statement referred to above (No. 333-20837) and the Rule 462 Registration Statement, as each such registration statement may be amended pursuant to the Securities Act.

(iii) The Company has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Pricing Agreement with respect to the Designated Shares and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder; and all corporate action required to be taken by the Company for the due and proper authorization, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Pricing Agreement with respect to the Designated Shares and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such documents has been duly and validly taken;

(vi) The issuance and delivery by the Company of the Designated Shares, the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the Pricing Agreement and the consummation by the Company of the transactions herein and therein contemplated will not (A) violate any provision of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of the Company or (B) contravene any statute, rule or regulation known to such counsel;

(vii) Except for the registration of the Shares under the Securities Act and such consents, approvals, authorizations, registrations or qualifications as may be required under the Exchange Act and applicable state securities laws or those obtained prior to the date of the opinion as set forth in the opinion in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Designated Shares being delivered at such Time of Delivery by the Underwriters, no consent, approval, authorization or order of, or any filing or registration with, any governmental agency or body is required for the valid authorization, issuance and delivery of the Designated Shares by the Company, the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement or the Pricing Agreement and the consummation by the Company of the transactions herein and therein contemplated;

Such opinion shall also include or be accompanied by a statement to the effect that such counsel has participated in conferences with representatives of the Company and with representatives of its independent accountants and counsel at which conferences the contents of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any amendment and supplement thereto and related matters were discussed, and while such counsel have not checked the accuracy or completeness of, or otherwise verified and, are not passing upon, and assume no responsibility for, the accuracy or completeness of the information contained in or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto (except to the limited extent stated in paragraph (vii) above), no facts have come to the attention of such counsel that have caused them to believe (A) that the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto (except for the financial statements, the notes thereto and related schedules and other financial and statistical data included or incorporated therein by reference, as to which counsel need not express a belief), at the time the Registration Statement or any amendment became effective, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (B) that the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto (except for the financial statements, the notes thereto and related schedules and other financial and statistical data included or incorporated therein by reference, as to which counsel need not

- 15 -

express a belief), as of its date or as of such Time of Delivery, contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

In giving such opinion, such counsel may state that such opinion is limited to the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Federal laws of the United States (other than laws with respect to federal energy regulation), except that such counsel expresses no opinion as to the securities laws of any state. In rendering such opinion or statement, such counsel may rely as to matters of fact upon certificates or opinions of responsible officers or counsel of the Company and of public officials.

(e) The Representatives shall have received from Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson, counsel for the Underwriters, such opinion or opinions, dated as of each Time of Delivery, with respect to such matters as the Representatives may reasonably require, and the Company shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they request for enabling them to pass upon such matters.

(f) The Company shall have furnished to the Representatives a letter (the "Initial Letter") of Deloitte & Touche LLP, addressed to the Representatives and dated the date of the applicable Pricing Agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives, substantially to the effect set forth in Annex A hereto.

(g) The Company shall have furnished to the Representatives a letter (as used in this paragraph, the "Bring-Down Letter") of Deloitte & Touche LLP, dated as of the date of the Pricing Agreement for the Designated Shares and at each Time of Delivery for such Designated Shares, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives and addressed to the Underwriters (i) confirming that they are independent public accountants with respect to the Company and its subsidiaries within the meaning of Rule 101 of the Code of Professional Conduct of the AICPA and its interpretations and rulings and are in compliance with the applicable requirements relating to the qualification of accountants in Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act Regulations, (ii) stating, as of the date of the Bring-Down Letter (or, with respect to matters involving changes or developments since the respective dates as of which specified financial information is given in the Prospectus, as of a date not more than five days prior to the date of the Bring-Down Letter), that the conclusions and findings of such firm with respect to the financial information and other matters covered by the Initial Letter are accurate, (iii) confirming in all material respects the conclusions and findings set forth in the Initial Letter and (iv) confirming they have performed certain procedures with respect to certain amounts, percentages and financial information specified by the Representatives and have found such amounts, percentages and financial information to be in agreement with the records of the Company.

- 16 -

(h) The Company shall have furnished to the Representatives a certificate, dated as of each Time of Delivery, of its Chairman of the Board, its President or an Executive Vice President and its chief financial officer stating that (i) such officers have carefully examined the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, this Agreement and the Pricing Agreement, (ii) in their opinion, as of each Time of Delivery, (A) the Registration Statement, including the documents incorporated therein by reference, does not include any untrue statement of a material fact and did not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (B) the Prospectus, including the documents incorporated therein by reference, does not include any untrue statement of a material fact and did not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and since the Effective Time, no event has occurred which should have been set forth in a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus and which has not been so set forth and (iii) to the best of his or her knowledge after reasonable investigation, as of each Time of Delivery, the representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement are true and correct, the Company has complied with all agreements and satisfied all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior to each Time of Delivery, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or, to the best of his or her knowledge, are contemplated by the Commission, and subsequent to the date of the most recent financial statements in the Prospectus, there has been no material adverse change in the financial position or results of operation of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, or any change, or any development including a prospective change, in or affecting the financial condition, results of operations or business of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, except as set forth in the Prospectus.

(i) Since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof) and the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto), there shall not have been any change (other than pursuant to employee stock option and dividend re-investment plans or the Company's common stock repurchase plan, as set forth or contemplated in the Prospectus) in the capital stock or long-term debt of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the financial condition, results of operations or business of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, the effect of which, in any such case described above, is, in the judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Designated Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented).

(j) Subsequent to the date of the Pricing Agreement relating to the Designated Shares, (i) no downgrading shall have occurred in the rating accorded any of the Company's debt securities by any "nationally recognized statistical rating

- 17 -

organization," as that term is defined by the Commission for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) of the Securities Act Regulations and (ii) no such organization shall have publicly announced that it has under surveillance or review (other than an announcement with positive implications of a possible upgrading), its rating of any of the Company's debt securities.

(k) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of the Pricing Agreement relating to the Designated Shares, there shall not have occurred any of the following: (i) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange or the over-the-counter market shall have been suspended or limited, or minimum prices shall have been established on either of such exchanges or such market by the Commission, by such exchanges or market or by any other regulatory body or governmental authority having jurisdiction, or trading in securities of the Company on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market shall have been suspended or (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by Federal or New York State or Oklahoma State authorities or (iii) an outbreak or escalation of hostilities or a declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war or such a material adverse change in general economic, political or financial conditions (or the effect of international conditions on the financial markets in the United States shall be such) as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Designated Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus.

All opinions, letters, evidence and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be deemed to be in compliance with the provisions hereof only if they are in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters.

6. TERMINATION. The obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be terminated by the Representatives, in their absolute discretion, by notice given to and received by the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Designated Shares pursuant to a Pricing Agreement if, prior to that time, any of the events described in Sections 5(i), 5(j) or 5(k) shall have occurred.

7. DEFAULTING UNDERWRITERS. (a) If any Underwriter or Underwriters default in its or their obligation to purchase the Firm Shares or the Optional Shares which it has agreed to purchase under the Pricing Agreement relating to such Designated Shares, the Representatives may make arrangements for the purchase of such Firm Shares or Optional Shares, as the case may be, by other persons satisfactory to the Company and the Representatives, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by the Time of Delivery, then each remaining non-defaulting Underwriter shall be severally obligated to purchase the Firm Shares or Optional Shares, as the case may be, which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase in the respective proportions which the number of Firm Shares or Optional Shares, as the case may be, set forth opposite the name of each remaining non- defaulting Underwriter in Schedule I of the applicable Pricing Agreement bears to the aggregate number of Firm Shares or Optional

- 18 -

Shares, as the case may be, set forth opposite the names of all the remaining non-defaulting Underwriters in Schedule I of the applicable Pricing Agreement; provided, however, that the remaining non-defaulting Underwriters shall not be obligated to purchase any of the Firm Shares or Optional Shares, as the case may be, if the aggregate number of Firm Shares or Optional Shares, as the case may be, which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase on such date exceeds one-tenth of the aggregate number of the Firm Shares or Optional Shares, as the case may be, to be purchased, and any remaining non-defaulting Underwriter shall not be obligated to purchase in total more than 110% of the number of the Firm Shares or Optional Shares, as the case may be, which it agreed to purchase, pursuant to the terms of Section
2. If the foregoing maximums are exceeded and the remaining Underwriters or other underwriters satisfactory to the Representatives and the Company do not elect to purchase, within 36 hours after such default, the Firm Shares or Optional Shares, as the case may be, which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses to the extent set forth in Sections 8 and 12 and except that the provisions of Sections 9 and 10 shall not terminate and shall remain in effect. As used in this Agreement, the term "Underwriter" includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any party not listed in Schedule I of the applicable Pricing Agreement who, pursuant to this Section 7, purchases the Firm Shares or Optional Shares, as the case may be, which a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of any liability it may have for damages caused by its default. If other Underwriters are obligated or agree to purchase the Firm Shares or Optional Shares, as the case may be, of a defaulting Underwriter, either the Representatives or the Company may postpone the Time of Delivery for up to seven full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Company or counsel for the Underwriters may be necessary in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus that effects any such changes.

8. REIMBURSEMENT OF UNDERWRITERS' EXPENSES. If (a) the Company shall fail to tender the Designated Shares for delivery to the Underwriters for any reason permitted under this Agreement or (b) the Underwriters shall decline to purchase the Designated Shares for any reason permitted under this Agreement (including the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6) and the Pricing Agreement, the Company shall reimburse the Underwriters for the fees and expenses of their counsel and for such other out-of-pocket expenses as shall have been reasonably incurred by them in connection with this Agreement and the Pricing Agreement and the proposed purchase of the Designated Shares, and upon demand the Company shall pay the full amount thereof to the Representatives. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7 by reason of the default of one or more Underwriters, the Company shall not be obligated to reimburse the Underwriters on account of those expenses.

- 19 -

9. INDEMNIFICATION. (a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively referred to for purposes of this Section 9(a) and Section 10 as an Underwriter), from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof (including, without limitation, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to purchases and sales of the Shares), to which that Underwriter may become subject, whether commenced or threatened, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment or supplement thereto or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus, any preliminary prospectus supplement or the Prospectus (or amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and shall reimburse each Underwriter promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against or appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any preliminary prospectus, preliminary prospectus supplement, Registration Statement (as originally filed or in any amendment or supplement thereto) or the Prospectus (as originally filed or in any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with any Underwriters' Information; and provided, further, that with respect to any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from the preliminary prospectus or preliminary prospectus supplement, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 9(a) shall not inure to the benefit of any Underwriter to the extent that the sale to the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action was a sale by such Underwriter and any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action of or with respect to such Underwriter results from the fact that both (A) to the extent required by applicable law, a copy of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) was not sent or given to such person at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Securities to such person (if the Company has previously furnished copies thereof sufficiently in advance of the Closing Time to allow for distribution of the Prospectus in a timely manner) and (B) the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from the preliminary prospectus or preliminary prospectus supplement was corrected in the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) unless, in either case, such failure to deliver the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) was a result of non-compliance by the Company with Section 4(c).

(b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration

- 20 -

Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively referred to for purposes of this Section 9(b) and Section 10 as the Company), from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the Company may become subject, whether commenced or threatened, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment or supplement thereto or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statements of material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus, any preliminary prospectus supplement or the Prospectus (as originally filed or in any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter expressly for use therein, and shall reimburse the Company promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against or appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party pursuant to Section 9(a) or 9(b), notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 9 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and, provided, further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this
Section 9. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 9 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action (in which case, if such indemnified party is indemnified pursuant to Section 9(a) above, counsel to the indemnified party shall be selected by the Representatives or if such indemnified party is indemnified pursuant to Section 9(b) above, counsel to the indemnified party shall be selected by the Company), but the fees and expenses

- 21 -

of such separate counsel shall be paid by such indemnified party unless (i) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party and the payment of fees and expenses by the indemnifying party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (ii) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel for the indemnified party) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel for the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, or (iv) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the election of the indemnifying party to assume the defense of the action, in each of which cases the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties. Each indemnified party, as a condition of the indemnity agreements contained in Sections 9(a) and 9(b), shall use all reasonable efforts to cooperate with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such action or claim. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent, but if settled with its written consent or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could reasonably have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

The obligations of the Company and the Underwriters in this Section 9 and in Section 10 are in addition to any other liability that the Company or the Underwriters, as the case may be, may otherwise have, including in respect of any breaches of representations, warranties and agreements made herein by any such party.

10. CONTRIBUTION. If the indemnification provided for in
Section 9 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 9(a) or 9(b), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Designated Shares, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of

- 22 -

the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Designated Shares purchased under the applicable Pricing Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by or on behalf of the Company, on the one hand, and the total discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters with respect to the Designated Shares purchased under the applicable Pricing Agreement, on the other, bear to the total gross proceeds from the sale of the Designated Shares under the applicable Pricing Agreement, in each case as set forth in the table in the Prospectus Supplement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to the Company or information supplied by the Company on the one hand or to any Underwriters' Information on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission.

The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 10 were to be determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 10 shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 10, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the Designated Shares purchased by it under the applicable Pricing Agreement exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 10 are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

11. PERSONS ENTITLED TO BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Underwriters, the Company, and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Underwriters and the Company and their respective successors and the controlling persons and officers and directors referred to in Sections 9 and 10 and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of the Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

- 23 -

12. EXPENSES. The Company agrees with the Underwriters to pay (a) the costs incident to the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of the Shares and any taxes payable in that connection; (b) the costs incident to the preparation, printing and filing under the Securities Act of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and any amendments and exhibits thereto; (c) the costs of distributing the Registration Statement as originally filed and each amendment thereto and any post-effective amendments thereof (including, in each case, exhibits), any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus, all as provided in this Agreement; (d) the costs of printing, reproducing and distributing this Agreement and any other underwriting and selling group documents by mail, telex or other means of communications; (e) the filing fees incident to securing any required review by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. of the terms of sale of the Shares; (f) any applicable listing or other fees, if any;
(g) the fees and expenses of qualifying the Shares under the securities laws of the several jurisdictions as provided in Section 4(i) and of preparing, printing and distributing Blue Sky Memoranda and Legal Investment Surveys
(including related fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters); and (h) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement; provided, that except as otherwise provided in this Section 12 and in Section 8, the Underwriters shall pay their own costs and expenses, including the costs and expenses of their counsel, any transfer taxes on the Shares which they may sell and the expenses of advertising any offering of the Shares made by the Underwriters.

13. SURVIVAL. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and the Underwriters contained in this Agreement and each Pricing Agreement or made by or on behalf on them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement and each Pricing Agreement, shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Designated Shares under the applicable Pricing Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any of them or any person controlling any of them.

14. NOTICES, ETC. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and:

(a) notices to the Underwriters shall be directed to the Underwriters at the address indicated in the applicable Pricing Agreement; and

(b) notices to the Company shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to the address of the Company set forth in the Registration Statement, Attention: Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary.

Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements shall take effect at the time of receipt thereof. The Company shall be entitled to act and rely upon any request, consent, notice or agreement given or made on behalf of the Underwriters by the Representatives.

15. DEFINITIONS OF CERTAIN TERMS. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) "business day" means any day on which the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. is open for

- 24 -

trading and (b) "subsidiary" has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 of the Securities Act Regulations.

16. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

17. COUNTERPARTS. Each Pricing Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

18. HEADINGS. The headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of, or to affect the meaning or interpretation of, this Agreement.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of the agreement between the Company and the several Underwriters, kindly indicate your acceptance in the space provided for that purpose below.

Very truly yours,

If Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer Securities, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of Securities of such series may, alternatively, be embodied in and evidenced by the record of Holders of Securities of such series voting in favor thereof pursuant to the third paragraph of Section 13.4, either in person or by proxies duly appointed in writing, at any meeting of Holders of Securities of such series duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article 13, or a combination of such instruments and any such record. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are received by, or delivered (either physically or by means of a facsimile or an electronic transmission, provided, in the case of a facsimile transmisstion that receipt thereof is confirmed, and, in the case of an elec-

15

tronic transmission, that it is transmitted through the facilities of a Depositary) to, the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, by or to the Company. Such instrument or instruments and record (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments or, in the case of Holders of Securities of a series issuable as Bearer Securities, so voting at such meeting. The Company and the Trustee may assume that any Act of a Holder has not been modified or revoked unless written notice to the contrary is received prior to the time that the action to which such Act relates has become effective. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 315 of the Trust Indenture Act) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section. The record of any meeting of Holders of Securities issuable as Bearer Securities shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 13.6.

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

(c) The ownership of Bearer Securities may be proved by the production of such Bearer Securities or by a certificate executed by any trust company, bank, banker or other depository, wherever situated, if such certificate shall be deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory, showing that at the date therein mentioned such Person had on deposit with such trust company, bank, banker or other depository, or exhibited to it, the Bearer Securities therein described; or such facts may be proved by the certificate or affidavit of the Person holding such Bearer Securities, if such certificate or affidavit is deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory. The Trustee and the Company may assume that such ownership of any Bearer Security continues until (i) another such certificate or affidavit bearing a later date issued in respect of the same Bearer Security is produced, (ii) such Bearer Security is produced to the Trustee by some other Person, (iii) such Bearer Security is surrendered in exchange for a Registered Security or (iv) such Bearer Security is no longer Outstanding. The ownership of Bearer Securities may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

16

(d) The ownership of Registered Securities shall be proved by the Register.

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

(f) If the Company shall solicit from the Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company may, at its option, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders of Registered Securities entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. Notwithstanding Section 316(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, any such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not more than 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith and no later than the date such first solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of Registered Securities of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.

Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to give or take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents, each of which may do so pursuant to

17

such appointment with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security to which such appointment relates.

Section 1.5. Notices, etc., to Trustee and Company. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

Section 1.4(a)) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, or

(2) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided, including, without limitation, as provided in
Section 1.4(a)) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to it at 1800 South Baltimore Avenue, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74119, Attention: Secretary, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company.

Section 1.6. Notice to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, (i) if any of the Securities affected by such event are Registered Securities, such notice to the Holders thereof shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each such Holder affected by such event, at his or her address as it appears in the Register, within the time prescribed for the giving of such notice, and (ii) if any of the Securities affected by such event are Bearer Securities, notice to the Holders thereof shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein or in the terms of such Bearer Securities expressly provided) if published once in an Authorized Newspaper in New York, New York, and in such other city or cities, if any, as may be specified as contemplated by Section 3.1. Such notices shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such mailing or publication.

In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail or by publication, neither the failure to mail or

18

publish such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed or published, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Registered Securities or of Bearer Securities. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice.

If by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice as provided above, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. If it is impossible or, in the opinion of the Trustee, impracticable to give any notice by publication in the manner herein required, then such publication in lieu thereof as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient publication of such notice.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language, except that any published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication.

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

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

Section 1.7. Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 1.8. Successor and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall

bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Section 1.9. Separability. In case any provision of this Indenture or the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 1.10. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, expressed or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

Section 1.11. Incorporators, Stockholders, Officers and Directors of the Company Exempt from Individual Liability. No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of or contained in this Indenture or of or contained in any Security or interest coupon appertaining thereto, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, or because of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or any successor Person, either directly or through the Company or any successor Person, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty, by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise; it being expressly understood that all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of the acceptance of, and as a part of the consideration for the execution of this Indenture and the issuance of, the Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto.

Section 1.12. Governing Law; Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. THIS INDENTURE, THE SECURITIES AND ANY INTEREST COUPONS APPERTAINING THERETO SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. This Indenture is subject to the Trust Indenture Act and if any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with the Trust Indenture Act, the Trust Indenture Act shall control. Whether or not this Indenture is required to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act required to be included in an indenture in order for such indenture to be so qualified shall be deemed to be included in this Indenture with the same effect as if such provisions were set forth herein and

20

any provisions hereof which may not be included in an indenture which is so qualified shall be deemed to be deleted or modified to the extent such provisions would be required to be deleted or modified in an indenture so qualified.

Section 1.13. Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated Maturity or Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of any Security or interest coupon other than a provision in the Securities of any series which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section), payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on such date; provided that no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated Maturity or Maturity, as the case may be, if such amount is so paid on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 1.14. Moneys of Different Currencies to Be Segregated. The Trustee shall segregate all moneys, funds and accounts held by the Trustee hereunder in one currency from any moneys, funds and accounts held by the Trustee hereunder in one currency from any moneys, funds or accounts in any other currencies, notwithstanding any provision herein which would otherwise permit the Trustee to commingle such amounts.

Section 1.15. Independence of Covenants. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any such covenant, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

Section 1.16. Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

Any endorsement of a Security in global form to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, or changes in the rights of Holders, of Outstanding Securities represented thereby, shall be made in such manner and by such Person or Persons as shall be specified therein or in the Company Order to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.3 or 3.4.

29

Chief Operating Officer, the Chief Financial Officer or any Vice President of the Company, and need not be attested. The Company's seal shall be reproduced on the Securities. The signatures of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. The interest coupons, if any, of Bearer Securities shall bear the facsimile signature of the Chairman of the Board, the President, the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Operating Officer, the Chief Financial Officer or any Vice President of the Company, and need not be attested.

Securities and interest coupons bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time Officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to be Officers prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or were not Officers at the date of such Securities.

At any time and from time to time, the Company may deliver Securities, together with any interest coupons appertaining thereto, of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities to or upon the order of the Company (as set forth in such Company Order); provided, however, that, in the case of Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Securities from time to time in accordance with such other procedures (including, without limitation, the receipt by the Trustee of oral or electronic instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agents, promptly confirmed in writing) acceptable to the Trustee as may be specified by or pursuant to a Company Order delivered to the Trustee prior to the time of the first authentication of Securities of such series.

If the form or terms of the Securities of a series have been established by or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions or one or more indentures supplemental hereto as permitted by Sections 2.1 and 3.1, in authenticating such Securities and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to section 315(a) through (d) of the Trust Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon,

(i) an Opinion of Counsel stating:

30

(1) if the form or forms of such Securities and any interest coupons have been established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution as permitted by Section 2.1, that such forms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

(2) if the terms of such Securities and any interest coupons have been, or, in the case of Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, will be, established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution as permitted by Section 3.1, that such terms have been, or, in the case of Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, will be, established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture, subject, in the case of Securities offered in a Periodic Offering, to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel;

(3) if the form or terms of such Securities have been established in an indenture supplemental hereto, that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and, when duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trustee, will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law), and (ii) such other reasonable exceptions as may be specified in such Opinion of Counsel; and

(4) that such Securities, together with any interest coupons appertaining thereto, when issued by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights and to general equity principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law) and except further as enforcement thereof may be limited by (A) requirements that a claim with respect to any Securities denominated other than in Dollars (or

31

a Foreign Currency or currency unit judgment in respect of such claim) be converted into Dollars at a rate of exchange prevailing on a date determined pursuant to applicable law or (B) governmental authority to limit, delay or prohibit the making of payments in Foreign Currencies or currency units or payments outside the United States, and (ii) such other reasonable exceptions as may be specified in such Opinion of Counsel; and

(ii) an Officers' Certificate stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the issuance of such Securities have been complied with and that, to the knowledge of the signers of such certificate, no Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall have occurred and be continuing.

Notwithstanding that such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate such Securities if, in the opinion of the Trustee (after consultation with counsel), the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will materially adversely affect the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise or if the Trustee determines that such authentication may not lawfully be made.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1 and of the two preceding paragraphs, if all of the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers' Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.1 or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to the two preceding paragraphs in connection with the authentication of each Security of such series if such documents, with appropriate modifications to cover such future issuances, are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued.

With respect to Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, the Trustee may rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any of such Securities, the form and terms thereof and the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof, upon the Opinion of Counsel and the other documents delivered pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 3.1 and this Section, as applicable, in connection with the first authentication of Securities of such series.

32

If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 3.1 that the Securities of a series are to be issued in whole or in part in global form, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section and the Company Order with respect to such series, authenticate and deliver one or more Securities in global form that (i) shall represent and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series to be represented by such Security or Securities in global form, (ii) shall be registered, if a Registered Security, in the name of the Depositary for such Security or Securities in global form or the nominee of such Depositary, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary's instruction and (iv) shall bear the legend set forth in Section 2.4.

Each Depositary designated pursuant to Section 3.1 for a Registered Security in global form must, at the time of its designation and at all times while it serves as Depositary, be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and any other applicable statute or regulation. If requested by the Company, the Trustee shall enter into an agreement with a Depositary governing the respective duties and rights of such Depositary and the Trustee with regard to Securities issued in global form.

Each Registered Security shall be dated the date of its authentication and each Bearer Security shall be dated as of the date specified pursuant to Section 3.1.

No Security or interest coupon appertaining thereto shall be entitled to any benefits under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of one of the authorized signatories of the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent and no interest coupon shall be valid until the Security to which it appertains has been so authenticated. Such signature upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. Except as permitted by Section 3.6 or 3.7, the Trustee shall not authenticate and deliver any Bearer Security unless all appurtenant interest coupons for interest then matured have been detached and cancelled.

33

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.9 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 1.2 hereof and need not be accompanied by an Officers' Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall not be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 3.4. Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute and, upon Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver temporary Securities of such series which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor and form, with or without interest coupons, of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities and interest coupons, if any. In the case of Securities of any series, such temporary Securities may be in global form, representing all or a portion of the Outstanding Securities of such series.

Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form, each of which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions thereof, if temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company pursuant to Section 9.2 in a Place of Payment for such series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series (accompanied by any unmatured interest coupons appertaining thereto), the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor; provided, however, that no definitive Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange

34

for a temporary Registered Security; and provided, further, that no definitive Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Bearer Security unless such delivery shall occur only outside the United States. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1.

Section 3.5. Registration, Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or in any office or agency to be maintained by the Company in accordance with
Section 9.2 in a Place of Payment a register (the "Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Registered Securities and the registration of transfers of Registered Securities. The Register shall be in written form or any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed "Registrar" for the purpose of registering Registered Securities and transfers of Registered Securities as herein provided.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Registered Security of any series at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 9.2 in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Registered Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor and containing identical terms and provisions.

Bearer Securities (except for any temporary global Bearer Securities) or any interest coupons appertaining thereto (except for interest coupons attached to any temporary global Bearer Security) shall be transferable by delivery.

At the option of the Holder, Registered Securities of any series (except a Registered Security in global form) may be exchanged for other Registered Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor and containing identical terms and provisions, upon surrender of the Registered Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Registered Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate

35

and deliver, the Registered Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, Bearer Securities may not be issued in exchange for Registered Securities.

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, at the option of the Holder, Bearer Securities of such series may be exchanged for Registered Securities (if the Securities of such series are issuable in registered form) or Bearer Securities (if Bearer Securities of such series are issuable in more than one denomination and such exchanges are permitted by such series) of the same series, of any authorized denominations, of like aggregate principal amount and tenor and containing identical terms and conditions, upon surrender of the Bearer Securities to be exchanged at any such office or agency, with all unmatured interest coupons and all matured interest coupons in default thereto appertaining. If the Holder of a Bearer Security is unable to produce any such unmatured interest coupon or coupons or matured interest coupon or coupons in default, such exchange may be effected if the Bearer Securities are accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company and the Trustee in an amount equal to the face amount of such missing interest coupon or coupons, or the surrender of such missing interest coupon or interest coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee if there be furnished to them such security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Security shall surrender to any Paying Agent any such missing interest coupon in respect of which such a payment shall have been made, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such payment; provided, however, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.2, interest represented by interest coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of those interest coupons at an office or agency located outside the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in case any Bearer Security of any series is surrendered at any such office or agency in exchange for a Registered Security of the same series after the close of business at such office or agency on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related date for payment of Defaulted Interest, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the interest coupon relating to such Interest Payment Date or proposed date of payment, as the case may be (or, if such interest coupon is so sur-

36

rendered with such Bearer Security, such interest coupon shall be returned to the Person so surrendering the Bearer Security), and interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of the Registered Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security, but will be payable only to the Holder of such interest coupon, when due in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the exchange of Bearer Securities for Registered Securities shall be subject to applicable laws and regulations in effect at the time of exchange. Neither the Company, the Trustee nor the Registrar shall exchange any Bearer Securities for Registered Securities if it has received an Opinion of Counsel that as a result of such exchange the Company would suffer adverse consequences under the United States Federal income tax laws and regulations then in effect and the Company has delivered to the Trustee a Company Order directing the Trustee not to make such exchanges thereafter, unless and until the Trustee receives a subsequent Company Order to the contrary. The Company shall deliver copies of such Company Order to the Registrar.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in certificated form, a Security in global form representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

If at any time the Depositary for the Securities of a series notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Securities of such series or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities of such series shall no longer be eligible under Section 3.3, the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the Securities of such series. If a successor Depositary for the Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company prior to the resignation of the Depositary and, in any event, within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company's designation of the Depositary pursuant to Section 3.1(b)(23) shall no longer be effective

37

with respect to the Securities of such series and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of certificated Securities of such series of like tenor, shall authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series of like tenor in certificated form, in authorized denominations and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Security or Securities of such series of like tenor in global form in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form.

The Company may at any time in its sole discretion determine that Securities issued in global form shall no longer be represented by such a Security or Securities in global form. In such event the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of certificated Securities of such series of like tenor, shall authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series of like tenor in certificated form, in authorized denominations and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Security or Securities of such series of like tenor in global form in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form.

If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to a series of Securities, the Depositary for such series may surrender a Security in global form of such series in exchange in whole or in part for Securities of such series in certificated form on such terms as are acceptable to the Company and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, without service charge,

(i) to each Person specified by such Depositary a new certificated Security or Securities of the same series of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Person in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person's beneficial interest in the Security in global form; and

(ii) to such Depositary a new Security in global form of like tenor in a denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered Security in global form and the aggregate principal amount of certificated Securities delivered to Holders thereof.

Upon the exchange of a Security in global form for Securities in certificated form, such Security in global

38

form shall be cancelled by the Trustee. Unless expressly provided with respect to the Securities of any series that such Security may be exchanged for Bearer Securities, Securities in certificated form issued in exchange for a Security in global form pursuant to this Section shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Security in global form, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee in writing. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

Whenever any Securities are surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or upon any exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

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

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or for any exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration or transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.4 or 11.7 not involving any transfer.

The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange any Securities for a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection for redemption of Securities of like tenor and of the series of which such Security is a part and ending at the close of business on the earliest date on which the relevant notice of redemption is deemed to have been given to all Holders of Securities of like tenor and of such series to be redeemed; (ii) to register the transfer of or

39

exchange any Registered Security so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part; or
(iii) to exchange any Bearer Security so selected for redemption, except that such a Bearer Security may be exchanged for a Registered Security of that series and like tenor; provided that such Registered Security shall be simultaneously surrendered for redemption.

The foregoing provisions relating to registration, transfer and exchange may be modified, supplemented or superseded with respect to any series of Securities by a Board Resolution or in one or more indentures supplemental hereto.

Section 3.6. Replacement Securities. If a mutilated Security or a Security with a mutilated interest coupon appertaining to it is surrendered to the Trustee, together with, in proper cases, such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company or the Trustee to save each of them harmless, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a replacement Registered Security, if such surrendered Security was a Registered Security, or a replacement Bearer Security with interest coupons corresponding to the interest coupons appertaining to the surrendered Security, if such surrendered Security was a Bearer Security, of the same series and date of maturity.

If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee
(i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security or Security with a destroyed, lost or stolen interest coupon and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security or interest coupon has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security or in exchange for the Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen interest coupon appertains (with all appurtenant interest coupons not destroyed, lost or stolen), a replacement Registered Security, if such Holder's claim appertains to a Registered Security, or a replacement Bearer Security with interest coupons corresponding to the interest coupons appertaining to the destroyed, lost or stolen Bearer Security or the Bearer Security to which such lost, destroyed or stolen interest coupon appertains, if such Holder's claim appertains to a Bearer Security, of the same series and principal

40

amount, containing identical terms and provisions and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding with interest coupons corresponding to the interest coupons, if any, appertaining to the destroyed, lost or stolen Security.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security or interest coupon has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security or interest coupon, pay such Security or interest coupon; provided, however, that payment of principal of and any premium or interest on Bearer Securities shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.2, be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, any interest on Bearer Securities shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the interest coupons appertaining thereto.

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) connected therewith.

Every new Security of any series with its interest coupons, if any, issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security, or in exchange for a Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen interest coupon appertains, shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security and its interest coupon, if any, or the destroyed, lost or stolen interest coupon, shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series and their interest coupons, if any, duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities or interest coupons.

Section 3.7. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. (a) Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, interest, if any, on any Registered Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or

41

duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest at the office or agency maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 9.2; provided, however, that at the option of the Company, interest on any series of Registered Securities that bear interest may be paid (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as it shall appear on the Register of Holders of Securities of such series or (ii) at the expense of the Company, by wire transfer to an account maintained by the Person entitled thereto as specified in the Register of Holders of Securities of such series.

Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, (i) interest, if any, on Bearer Securities shall be paid only against presentation and surrender of the interest coupons for such interest installments as are evidenced thereby as they mature and (ii) original issue discount, if any, on Bearer Securities shall be paid only against presentation and surrender of such Securities; in either case at the office of a Paying Agent located outside the United States, unless the Company shall have otherwise instructed the Trustee in writing, provided that any such instruction for payment in the United States does not cause any Bearer Security to be treated as a "registration-required obligation" under United States laws and regulations. The interest, if any, on any temporary Bearer Security shall be paid, as to any installment of interest evidenced by an interest coupon attached thereto only upon presentation and surrender of such interest coupon and, as to other installments of interest, only upon presentation of such Security for notation thereon of the payment of such interest. If at the time a payment of principal of or interest, if any, on a Bearer Security or interest coupon shall become due, the payment of the full amount so payable at the office or offices of all the Paying Agents outside the United States is illegal or effectively precluded because of the imposition of exchange controls or other similar restrictions on the payment of such amount in Dollars, then the Company may instruct the Trustee in writing to make such payments at a Paying Agent located in the United States, provided that provision for such payment in the United States would not cause such Bearer Security to be treated as a "registration-required obligation" under United States laws and regulations.

(b) Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, any interest on Securities of any series which

42

is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date in the case of Registered Securities and upon presentation and surrender of the applicable interest coupon in accordance with the second paragraph of Section 3.7(a) in the case of Bearer Securities (herein called "Defaulted Interest"), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of their having been such Holders, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (1) or (2) below:

(1) In the case of Registered Securities, the Company may elect to make payment of such Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names such Registered Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Registered Security and the date of the proposed payment, and shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause (1) provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of such Registered Securities at his or her address as it appears in the Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Registered Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on

43

such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

(2)(x) In the case of Registered Securities, the Company may make payment of such Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names such Registered Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a specified date in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Registered Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause (2)(x), such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee; or (y) unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, in the case of Bearer Securities, the Company may make payment of Defaulted Interest on such Bearer Securities in any lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Bearer Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause (2)(y), such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

(c) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 3.5, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

(d) Subject to the provisions of Section 14.2, in the case of any Registered Security which is converted or exchanged after any Regular Record Date and on or prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (other than any Security the principal of (or premium, if any, on) which shall become due and payable, whether at a Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption, or otherwise, prior to such Interest Payment Date), interest whose Stated Maturity is on such Interest Payment Date shall be payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding such conversion or exchange and such interest (whether or not punctually paid or duly provided for) shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Registered Security (or any one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date. Except as

44

otherwise expressly provided in the immediately preceding sentence, in the case of any Security which is converted or exchanged, interest whose Stated Maturity is after the date of conversion or exchange of such Security shall not be payable.

Section 3.8. Persons Deemed Owners. Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, prior to due presentment of any Registered Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Registered Security is registered as the owner of such Registered Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 3.7) interest on such Registered Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Registered Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the bearer of any Bearer Security and the bearer of any interest coupon as the absolute owner of such Bearer Security or interest coupon for the purpose of receiving payment thereof or on account thereof and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Bearer Security or interest coupon be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

None of the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Security in global form, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. No holder of any beneficial interest in any Security in global form, held on its behalf by or through a Depositary, shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to such Security in global form, and such Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the owner of such Security in global form for all purposes whatsoever. With respect to any Security in global form, nothing herein shall prevent the Company or the Trustee, or any agent of the Company or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization fur-

45

nished by any Depositary (or its nominee), as a Holder, with respect to such Security in global form or impair, as between such Depositary and owners of beneficial interests in such Security in global form, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of such Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such Security in global form.

Section 3.9. Cancellation. All Securities and interest coupons appertaining thereto, if any, surrendered for payment, redemption, conversion, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities, together with interest coupons appertaining thereto, if any, previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities, together with interest coupons appertaining thereto, if any, previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Securities and interest coupons so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section 3.9, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities and interest coupons held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with its customary procedures, and the Trustee shall thereafter deliver to the Company a certificate with respect to such disposition.

Section 3.10. Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

Section 3.11. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then generally in use and in addition to the other identification numbers printed on the Securities), and, in such case, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers

46

printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

Section 3.12. Currency and Manner of Payment in Respect of Securities. Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 3.1, payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on any Security of such series will be made in the currency or currencies or currency unit or units in which such Security is payable. The provisions of this Section 3.12 may be modified or superseded pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to any Securities.

ARTICLE 4

Section 4.1. Termination of Company's Obligations Under the Indenture. (a) This Indenture shall upon a Company Request cease to be of further effect with respect to Securities of or within any series and any interest coupons appertaining thereto (except as to (i) rights of registration, transfer or exchange of such Securities, (ii) rights of replacement of such Securities which may have been lost, stolen or mutilated as herein expressly provided for, (iii) rights of holders of Securities to receive payments of principal thereof and interest thereon, upon the Stated Maturity thereof (but not upon acceleration), and rights of the Holders to receive mandatory sinking fund payments, if any, (iv) rights of holders of Securities to convert or exchange Securities, (v) rights, obligations, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder, (vi) any rights of the Holders of Securities of such series as beneficiaries hereof with respect to the property so deposited with the Trustee payable to all or any of them, and (vii) the obligations of the Company under Section 9.2) and the Trustee, upon payment of all amounts due it under
Section 6.7, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto when

47

(1) either

(B) all Securities of such series and, in the case of (i) or (ii) below, any interest coupons appertaining thereto not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation

(i) have become due and payable, or

(ii) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or

(iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company,

and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose an amount in the currency or currencies or currency unit or units in which the Securities of such series are payable, sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities and such in-

48

terest coupons not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal, premium, if any, and interest, with respect thereto, to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be;

(2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and

(3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligation of the Company to the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under
Section 6.7, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under
Section 6.13 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.2, Section 9.2, the last paragraph of Section 9.3 and Section 10.1 shall survive.

Section 4.2. Application of Trust Funds. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 9.3, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities, the interest coupons appertaining thereto, if any, and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal, premium, if any and any interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with or received by the Trustee, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except as otherwise provided herein and except to the extent required by law.

Section 4.3. Applicability of Defeasance Provisions; Company's Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for the Securities of any series, the provisions of Sections 4.3 through 4.10 inclusive, with such modifications thereto as may be specified pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to any series of Securities, shall be

49

applicable to the Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto.

Section 4.4. Defeasance and Discharge. On and after the date on which the conditions set forth in Section 4.6 are satisfied with respect to the Securities of or within any series, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and been discharged from its obligations with respect to such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto (hereinafter "defeasance"). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto which shall thereafter be deemed to be "Outstanding" only for the purposes of Section 4.7 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clause (ii) of this Section, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto and this Indenture insofar as such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto are concerned (and the Trustee, upon payment of all amounts due it under Section 6.7, at the expense of the Company, shall on a Company Order execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (i) the rights of Holders of such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto to receive, solely from the trust funds described in Section 4.6(a) and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Securities or any interest coupons appertaining thereto when such payments are due; (ii) the Company's obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 3.5, 3.6, 9.2 and 9.3 and with respect to the payment of additional amounts, if any, payable with respect to such Securities as specified pursuant to Section 3.1(b)(16); (iii) the Company's obligations with respect to a conversion or exchange of such Securities; (iv) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (v) this Article 4. Subject to compliance with this Article 4, the Company may defease the Securities of any series and any interest coupons appertaining thereto under this Section 4.4 notwithstanding a prior covenant defeasance (as defined herein) under Section 4.5 with respect to such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto. Following a defeasance, payment of such Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default.

50

Section 4.5. Covenant Defeasance. On and after the date on which the conditions set forth in Section 4.6 (other than Section 4.6(c)) are satisfied with respect to the Securities of or within any series, (i) the Company shall be released from its obligations under Sections 7.1, 9.4, 9.5 and 9.6 and, if specified pursuant to Section 3.1, its obligations under any other covenant, with respect to such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto and (ii) the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 5.1(3) or
5.1(7) (with respect to any of the obligations described in clause (i) above) or 5.1(4) shall be deemed not to be or result in a Default or Event of Default (hereinafter, "covenant defeasance"), and such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto shall thereafter be deemed to be not "Outstanding" for the purposes of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with Section 7.1, 9.4, 9.5 or 9.6, such other covenant specified pursuant to Section 3.1, or Section 5.1(4), but shall continue to be deemed "Outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such Section or such other covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or such other covenant or by reason of reference in any such Section or such other covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under
Section 5.1(3), 5.1(4) or 5.1(7) or otherwise, as the case may be, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto shall be unaffected thereby.

Section 4.6. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to application of Section 4.4 or Section 4.5 to any Securities of or within a series and any interest coupons appertaining thereto:

(a) The Company shall have deposited or caused to be deposited irrevocably with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 6.10 who shall agree to comply with, and shall be entitled to the benefits of, the provisions of Sections 4.3 through 4.10 inclusive and the last paragraph of Section 9.3

51

applicable to the Trustee, for purposes of such Sections also a "Trustee") as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the payments referred to in clauses (x) and (y) of this Section 4.6(a), specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto, with written instructions to the Trustee as to the application thereof, (A) money in an amount (in such currency, currencies or currency unit or units in which such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto are then specified as payable at Maturity), or (B) if Securities of such series are not subject to repayment at the option of Holders, Government Obligations which through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment referred to in clause (x) or (y) of this Section 4.6(a), money in an amount or (C) a combination thereof in an amount, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants or a nationally recognized investment banking firm expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge, (x) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto on the Maturity of such principal or installment of principal or interest and
(y) any mandatory sinking fund payments applicable to such Securities on the day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto. Before such a deposit the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Securities at a future date or dates in accordance with Article 11 which shall be given effect in applying the foregoing.

(b) No Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series shall have occurred or be continuing on the date of such a deposit or shall occur as a result of such a deposit or, insofar as Sections 5.1(5) and (6) are concerned, shall occur at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period).

53

spect of any Securities of any series and any interest coupons appertaining thereto shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except as provided herein and except to the extent required by law.

Section 4.8. Repayment to Company. The Trustee (and any Paying Agent) shall promptly pay to the Company upon Company Request any excess money or securities held by them at any time.

54

Securities and the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money and Government Obligations held by the Trustee (or Paying Agent).

ARTICLE 5

Defaults and Remedies

Section 5.1. Events of Default. An "Event of Default" occurs with respect to the Securities of any series if (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(1) the Company defaults in the payment of interest on any Security of that series or any interest coupon appertaining thereto or any additional amount payable with respect to any Security of that series as specified pursuant to Section 3.1(b)(16) when the same becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days;

(2) the Company defaults in the payment of any installment of the principal of or any premium on any Security of that series when the same becomes due and payable at its Maturity;

(3) the Company fails to comply with any of its agreements or covenants in, or any of the provisions of, this Indenture with respect to any Security of that series (other than an agreement, covenant or provision for which non-compliance is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with), and such non- compliance continues for a period of 90 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the series, a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder;

(4) the Company defaults under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be

55

issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any Debt (including this Indenture) having an aggregate principal amount outstanding of at least $25,000,000, whether such Debt now exists or shall hereafter be created, and, as a result of such default, such Debt shall become due and payable, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and such acceleration shall not be rescinded, annulled or cured within a period of 30 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice specifying such default and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder (it being understood however, that the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of such default under such agreement or instrument unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Company, from any Holder, from the holder of any such Debt or from the trustee under any such agreement or other instrument); provided, however, that if such default under such mortgage, indenture or instrument is remedied or cured by the Company or waived by the holders of such Debt, then the Event of Default hereunder by reason thereof shall be deemed likewise to have been thereupon remedied, cured or waived without further action upon the part of either the Trustee or any of such Holders;

(5) the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (A) commences a voluntary case, (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, (C) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (E) admits in writing its inability generally to pay its debts as they become due or (F) takes any corporate action in furtherance of such action;

(6) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that (A) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case, (B) appoints a Custodian of the Company or for all or substantially all of its property, or (C) orders the liquidation of the Company, and such order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days; or

56

(7) there occurs any other Event of Default provided as contemplated by Section 3.1 with respect to Securities of that series.

The term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11, United States Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended, or any similar United States federal or state law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, winding up, liquidation, reorganization or relief of debtors or any amendment to, successor to or change in any such law. The term "Custodian" means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian, sequestrator or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 5.2. Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of
Section 5.1) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of all of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice received by the Company (and, if given by the Holders, received by the Trustee), may declare the principal (or, if the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of and accrued interest, if any, on all the Securities of that series to be due and payable and upon any such declaration such principal (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such specified amount) and interest, if any, shall be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of Section 5.1 with respect to the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then the principal (or, if the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of and accrued interest, if any, on all the Securities of that series shall ipso facto be immediately due and payable without any declaration or act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of such Securities.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if all existing

57

Defaults and Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.7. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 5.3. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. The Company covenants that if

(1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security or interest coupon, if any, when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or

(2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof,

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities or interest coupons, if any, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal, premium, if any, and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities or interest coupons, if any, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including all amounts due the Trustee, its agents and counsel under Section 6.7.

If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated.

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by

58

such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to secure any other proper remedy, subject, however, to Section 5.8. No recovery of any such judgment upon any property of the Company or of any other obligor upon the Securities shall affect or impair any rights, powers or remedies of the Trustee or the Holders in respect of any sums remaining due and unpaid hereunder after such recovery.

Section 5.4. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of any judicial proceeding relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), its property or its creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.7.

No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Security or interest coupon any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder of a Security or interest coupon thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of a Security or interest coupon in any such proceeding; provided, however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors' or other similar committee.

Section 5.5. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto.

59

Section 5.6. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in any such Event of Default.

Section 5.7. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities of any series by written notice to the Trustee may waive on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series and any interest coupons appertaining thereto a past Default or Event of Default with respect to that series and its consequences except (i) a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security of such series or any interest coupon appertaining thereto or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which pursuant to Article 8 cannot be amended or modified without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 5.8. Control by Majority. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of each series affected (with each such series voting as a class) shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it with respect to Securities of that series; provided, however, that (i) the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with any governmental rule or law or this Indenture, (ii) the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that is unduly prejudicial to the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series not consenting, or that would in the good faith judgment of the Trustee have a substantial likelihood of involving the Trustee in personal liability without adequate indemnity having been offered therefor and (iii) subject to Section 6.1, the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

Section 5.9. Limitation on Suits by Holders. No Holder of any Security of any series or any interest coupons

60

appertaining thereto shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(1) the Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series;

(2) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series have made a written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

(3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense to be, or which may be, incurred by the Trustee in pursuing the remedy;

(4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and the offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceedings; and

(5) during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series have not given to the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such written request.

No one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.

Section 5.10. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, but subject to Section 9.2, the right of any Holder of a Security or interest coupon to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and, subject to Sections 3.5 and 3.7, interest on the Security, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Security (or, in case of redemption, on the Redemption Dates), the right of any Holder of an interest coupon to receive payment of interest due as provided in such interest coupon, or to bring suit

61

for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, and the right, if any, to convert or exchange such Security in accordance with Article 14, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

Section 5.11. Application of Money Collected. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article, it shall pay out the money in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal, premium, if any, or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and interest coupons, if any, and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

First: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 6.7;

Second: to Holders of Securities and interest coupons in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected for amounts due and unpaid on such Securities for principal of, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

Third: the balance, if any, to the Company.

The Holders of each series of Securities denominated in ECU, any other currency unit or a Foreign Currency and any matured interest coupons relating thereto shall be entitled to receive a ratable portion of the amount determined by the Trustee by converting the principal amount Outstanding of such series of Securities and matured but unpaid interest on such series of Securities in the currency in which such series of Securities is denominated into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate as of the date of declaration of acceleration of Maturity of the Securities.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 5.11. At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder and the Company a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid.

Section 5.12. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding

62

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

Section 5.13. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.6, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 5.14. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided, however, that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company.

Section 5.15. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury or other law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal, of, and premium, if any, or interest on the Securities contemplated herein or in the Securities or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives

63

all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

(b) In case a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and shall use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

Section 6.2. Rights of Trustee. Subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act:

(a) The Trustee may rely on and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

(b) Any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order (other than delivery of any Security, together with any interest coupons appertaining thereto, to the Trustee for authentication and delivery pursuant to Section 3.3, which shall be sufficiently evidenced as provided therein) and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution.

(c) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may consult with counsel or require an Officers' Certificate and/or an Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on a Board Resolution, the advice of counsel acceptable to the

64

Trustee, a certificate of an Officer or Officers delivered pursuant to
Section 1.2, an Officers' Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel.

(d) The Trustee may act through agents or attorneys and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent or attorney appointed with due care.

(e) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers.

(f) The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity deemed satisfactory by the Trustee against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Section 6.3. Trustee May Hold Securities. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Registrar or any other agent of the Company or the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and interest coupons and, subject to Sections 310(b) and 311 of the Trust Indenture Act, may otherwise deal with the Company, an Affiliate or Subsidiary with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Registrar or such other agent.

Section 6.4. Money Held in Trust. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed upon in writing with the Company.

Section 6.5. Trustee's Disclaimer. The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee's certificate of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities or any interest coupon. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the Company's use of

65

the proceeds from the Securities or for monies paid over to the Company pursuant to the Indenture.

Section 6.6. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Securities of any series and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall, within 90 days after the Default occurs, transmit by mail, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, notice of all Defaults known to it unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of any series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a Responsible Officer in good faith determines that withholding such notice is in the interests of Holders of Securities of that series.

Section 6.7. Compensation and Indemnity. (a) The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services and its counsel. The Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust.

Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee's agents and counsel.

(b) The Company shall indemnify the Trustee for, and hold it harmless against, any loss or liability, damage, claim or reasonable expense including taxes (other than taxes based upon or determined or measured by the income of the Trustee) incurred by it without negligence, recklessness or bad faith and arising out of or in connection with its acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder other than those attributable to its negligence, recklessness or bad faith.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(5) or Section 5.1(6), the expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.

The provisions of this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination of this Indenture.

Section 6.8. Replacement of Trustee. (a) The resignation or removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee's acceptance of appointment as provided in Section 6.9.

(b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.9 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

(c) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may remove the Trustee with respect to that series by so notifying the Trustee and the Company.

(d) If at any time:

67

(1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

(2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.10 hereunder or Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months; or

(3) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting, is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or a receiver or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any such case, (i) the Company by or pursuant to a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii) subject to
Section 315(e) of the Trust Indenture Act, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

(e) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, with respect to Securities of one or more series, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 6.9. If, within one year after such resignation or removal, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a different successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.9, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to

68

that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.9, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

Section 6.9. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee, without further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of all amounts due it under Section 6.7, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.

(b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and such successor Trustee shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein such successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (i) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, such successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (ii) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (iii) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for

69

or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of all amounts due it under Section 6.7, duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.

(c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be.

(d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under the Trust Indenture Act.

(e) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series in the manner provided for notices to the Holders of Securities in
Section 1.6. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. If the Company fails to give such notice within thirty days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause such notice to be given at the expense of the Company.

Section 6.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. (a) There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall

70

be eligible to act as Trustee under Section 310(a)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act, shall be a bank or trust company or corporation organized and doing business and in good standing under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof or the District of Columbia and shall have (together with its direct parent) a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such company or corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of Federal, State, territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such company or corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Article.

(b) If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture and the Company shall take prompt action to have a successor Trustee appointed in the manner provided herein. Nothing herein shall prevent the Trustee from filing with the Commission the application referred to in the second to the last paragraph of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act or any equivalent successor provision.

Section 6.11. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

71

Section 6.12. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor).

Section 6.13. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original issue, exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, a copy of which instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and, except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to
Section 3.1, shall at all times be a bank or trust company or corporation organized and doing business and in good standing under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authorities. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be con-

72

solidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

An Authenticating Agent for any series of Securities may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee for such series and to the Company. The Trustee for any series of Securities may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee for such series may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give notice of such appointment in the manner set forth in Section 1.6, at the expense of the Company, to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent herein. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation including reimbursement of its reasonable expenses for its services under this Section, subject to Section 6.7.

If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to or in lieu of the Trustee's certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication substantially in the following form:

73

This is one of the Securities of the series described in the within-mentioned Indenture.

Consolidation, Merger or Sale by the Company

Section 7.1. Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets Permitted. The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into, or sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of its properties and assets as, or substantially as, an entirety to, any Person unless:

(1) (A) the Company will be the surviving entity or (B) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company), or to which such sale, transfer, lease or other disposition shall have been made, is an entity organized and existing under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia;

(2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company), or to which such sale, transfer, lease or other disposition shall have been made, expressly assumes by supplemental indenture, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Company under the Securities and this Indenture, and the Securities and this Indenture will remain in full force and effect as so supplemented; and

(3) immediately after giving effect to such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, lease or other disposition, no Default or Event of Default exists.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee prior to the proposed consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, lease or other disposition an Officers' Certificate to the foregoing

74

effect and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the proposed consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, lease or other disposition and such supplemental indenture comply with this Indenture and that all conditions precedent to the consummation of such transaction under this Section 7.1 have been met.

Upon any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other Person or any sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of properties and assets of the Company as, or substantially as, an entirety in accordance with this Section 7.1, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such sale, transfer, lease or other disposition is made shall succeed to and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company hereunder and under the Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named hereunder and thereunder and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the predecessor Person shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities.

ARTICLE 8

(2) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Holders of all or any series of Securities (and if such covenants are to be for the benefit of less than all series of Securities, stating that such covenants are expressly being included solely for the benefit of such series) or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company; or

75

(3) to add any additional Events of Default with respect to all or any series of Securities; or

(4) to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to facilitate the issuance or administration of Bearer Securities (including, without limitation, to provide that Bearer Securities may be registrable as to principal only) or to facilitate the issuance or administration of Securities in global form; or

(5) to change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture in respect of one or more series of Securities, provided that any such change or elimination shall become effective only when there is no Security Outstanding of any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture which is entitled to the benefit of such provision; or

(6) to secure the Securities pursuant to the requirements of Section 9.5 or otherwise; or

(7) to establish the form or terms of Securities of any series as permitted by Sections 2.1 and 3.1; or

(8) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, pursuant to the requirements of Section 6.9; or

(9) if allowed without penalty under applicable laws and regulations, to permit payment in the United States (including any of the States thereof and the District of Columbia), its territories, its possessions and other areas subject to its jurisdiction of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on Bearer Securities or interest coupons, if any; or

(10) to correct or supplement any provision herein which may be inconsistent with any other provision herein or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture, provided such action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders of Securities of any series; or

76

(11) to make provision not adverse to the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series with respect to any conversion or exchange rights of Holders pursuant to the requirements of Article 14, including providing for the conversion or exchange of the Securities into any Equity Securities or property of the Company; or

(12) to cure any ambiguity, correct any mistake or comply with any mandatory provision of law; or

(13) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act or under any similar federal statute subsequently enacted, and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may be expressly required under the Trust Indenture Act.

Section 8.2. Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Holders. With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series adversely affected by such supplemental indenture (voting as one class), by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company, the Company and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto to add any provisions to or to change in any manner or eliminate any provisions of this Indenture or of any other indenture supplemental hereto or to modify in any manner the rights of the Holders of such Securities; provided, however, that without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby, an amendment under this Section may not:

(1) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or premium, if any, on, or any installment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or change the manner in which the amount of any principal thereof or premium, if any, or interest thereon is determined or reduce the amount of the principal of any Original Issue Discount Security or Indexed Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to
Section 5.2, or change the currency or currency unit in which any Securities or any premium or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in

77

the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date);

(2) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in this Indenture, or reduce the requirements of Section 13.4 for quorum or voting;

(3) change any obligation of the Company to maintain an office or agency in the places and for the purposes specified in
Section 9.2;

(4) make any change that adversely affects any right to convert or exchange any Security to which the provisions of Article 14 are applicable or, except as provided in this Indenture, decrease the conversion or exchange rate or increase the conversion or exchange price of any such Security; or

(5) make any change in this Section 8.2 except to increase any percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived with the consent of the Holders of each Outstanding Security affected thereby.

A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series.

It is not necessary under this Section 8.2 for the Holders to consent to the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it is sufficient if they consent to the substance thereof.

Section 8.3. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment to this Indenture or the Securities of one or more series shall be set forth in a supplemental indenture that complies with the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.

78

In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 8.5. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder and of any interest coupon appertaining thereto shall be bound thereby.

Section 8.6. Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures. Securities, including any interest coupons, of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities including any interest coupons of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities including any interest coupons of such series.

Section 8.7. Notice of Supplemental Indentures. Promptly after the execution by the Company and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.2, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holders of each Outstanding Security affected, in the manner provided for in Section 1.6, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Company to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

79

ARTICLE 9

Covenants

Section 9.1. Payment of Principal, Premium, if any, and Interest. The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of each series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, together with additional amounts, if any, on the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of the Securities of such series, any interest coupons appertaining thereto and this Indenture; provided, however, that amounts properly withheld under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, by any Person from a payment to any Holder of Securities, after having requested such Holder to provide applicable information that would allow such Person to make such payment without withholding, shall be considered as having been paid by the Company to such Holder for purposes of this Indenture. An installment of principal, premium, if any, or interest shall be considered paid on the date it is due if there shall have been sent to the Trustee or Paying Agent by wire transfer (provided, that the funds sent by such wire transfer shall have been received by the Trustree by no later than 5:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following such date), or if the Trustee or Paying Agent otherwise holds, on such date money designated for and sufficient to pay the installment.

Section 9.2. Maintenance of Office or Agency. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, if Securities of a series are issued as Registered Securities, the Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, if Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer Securities, the Company will maintain, (i) subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto, an office or agency in a Place of Payment for that series which is located outside the United States where Securities of that series and related interest coupons may be presented and surrendered for payment; provided, however, that if the Securities of that series are listed on The International Stock Exchange of the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland Limited, the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange located outside the United States and such stock exchange shall so require, the Company will maintain a Paying Agent for the Securities of that series in London, Luxembourg or

80

any other required city located outside the United States, as the case may be, so long as the Securities of that series are listed on such exchange, and (ii) subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto, an office or agency in a Place of Payment for that series which is located outside the United States, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of any such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, no payment of principal, premium or interest on Bearer Securities shall be made at any office or agency of the Company in the United States, by check mailed to any address in the United States, by transfer to an account located in the United States or upon presentation or surrender in the United States of a Bearer Security or interest coupon for payment, even if the payment would be credited to an account located outside the United States; provided, however, that, if the Securities of a series are denominated and payable in Dollars, payment of principal of and any premium or interest on any such Bearer Security shall be made at the office of the Company's Paying Agent in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, if (but only if) payment in Dollars of the full amount of such principal, premium or interest, as the case may be, at all offices or agencies outside the United States maintained for the purpose by the Company in accordance with this Indenture is illegal or effectively precluded by exchange controls or other similar restrictions.

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, the Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities (including any interest coupons, if any) of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of

81

Payment for Securities (including any interest coupons, if any) of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, the Trustee shall initially serve as Paying Agent.

Section 9.3. Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust; Unclaimed Money. If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal, premium, if any, or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of its action or failure so to act.

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto, it will, prior to each due date of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held as provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

The Company will cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:

(1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on Securities of that series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

(2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any payment of principal,

82

premium, if any, or interest on the Securities of that series; and

(3) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the terms set forth in this Indenture; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of any principal of or premium or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security and interest coupon, if any, shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may in the name and at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper in each Place of Payment with respect to such series, or cause to be mailed to such Holder, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

Section 9.4. Corporate Existence. Subject to Article 7, the Company will at all times do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and its rights and franchises; provided that nothing in this Section 9.4 shall prevent the abandonment or termination of any right or franchise of the Company if it shall be determined that such

83

abandonment or termination is desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company.

Section 9.5. Limitations on Liens. The Company will not, nor will it permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, issue, assume or guarantee any debt for money borrowed (excluding trade accounts payable or accrued liabilities arising in the normal course of business) (herein referred to as "Indebtedness") if such Indebtedness is secured by any mortgage, security interest, pledge, lien or other encumbrance (herein referred to as a "Lien" or "Liens") upon any Principal Property of the Company or of a Restricted Subsidiary or on any shares of stock of any Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Principal Property or shares of stock are owned at the date of this Indenture or thereafter acquired, without in any such case effectively providing that the Securities of any outstanding series that are entitled to the benefits of such provision of this Indenture (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other indebtedness of or guaranteed by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary entitled thereto, subject to applicable priority of payment) shall be secured equally and ratably with, or prior to, such Indebtedness so long as such Indebtedness shall be so secured; provided, however, that the foregoing restriction does not apply to any of the following:

(a) Liens on any property or assets acquired, constructed or improved by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary which are created or assumed prior to, contemporaneously with, or within one year after the later of such acquisition, completion of such construction or improvement or commencement of operation of such property or assets to secure or provide for the payment of all or any part of the purchase price of such property or assets or the cost of such construction or improvement;

(b) Liens on any property or assets existing thereon at the time of the acquisition thereof by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary;

(c) Liens on any property, assets or stock of any Person existing at the time such Person is merged with or into or consolidated with the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or at the time of a purchase, lease or other acquisition of the properties, assets or stock of such Person;

84

(d) Liens on property, assets or securities of a Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary;

(e) Liens to secure Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary to the Company or to another Restricted Subsidiary;

(f) Liens in favor of the United States or any State thereof, or any department, agency or instrumentality or political subdivision of the United States or any State thereof, to secure partial progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or statute or to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or the cost of constructing or improving the property or assets subject to such Liens;

(g) any Lien upon any property or assets in accordance with customary banking practice to secure any Indebtedness incurred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with the exporting of goods to, or between, or the marketing of goods in, or the importing of goods from, foreign countries;

(h) any Lien in existence on the date of this Indenture or created pursuant to an "after-acquired property" clause or similar term in existence on the date of this Indenture or any mortgage, pledge agreement, security agreement or other similar instrument in existence on the date of this Indenture; and

(i) any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements), in whole or in part, of any Lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) to (h), inclusive; provided, however, that the principal amount of Indebtedness secured thereby shall not exceed the greater of the principal amount of Indebtedness so secured at the time of such extension, renewal or replacement and the original principal amount of the Indebtedness so secured (plus, in each case, the aggregate amount of premiums, other payments, costs and expenses required to be paid or incurred in connection with such extension, renewal or replacement); provided, further, however, that such extension, renewal or replacement shall be limited to all or a part of the property (including improvements, alterations and repairs on such property) subject to

85

the encumbrance so extended, renewed or replaced (plus improvements, alterations or repairs on such property).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, such restriction does not apply to the issuance, assumption or guarantee by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness secured by a Lien which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions up to an aggregate principal amount which, together with all other Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries secured by Liens which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions (other than Liens permitted under the foregoing exceptions) and the net sale proceeds from Sale and Leaseback Transactions (as defined in Section 9.6) in existence at such time (other than any Sale and Leaseback Transaction permitted by clauses (i) through (v), inclusive, of Section 9.6), does not at the time exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

Section 9.6. Restrictions on Sale and Leaseback Transactions. The Indenture will provide that the Company will not, nor will it permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement with any Person providing for the leasing to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Principal Property which Principal Property has been or is to be sold or transferred by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to such Person (herein referred to as a "Sale and Leaseback Transaction") unless (i) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled to incur Indebtedness secured by a Lien on the Principal Property to be leased as permitted by clauses (a) through
(i), inclusive, of Section 9.5, in an amount equal to or exceeding the net sale proceeds from such Sale and Leaseback Transaction without equally and ratably securing the Securities; (ii) the lease is for a term, including any renewal thereof, of not more than three years; (iii) the lease is between the Company and a Restricted Subsidiary or between Restricted Subsidiaries; (iv) such Sale and Leaseback Transaction occurs within one year from the date of acquisition of the Principal Property subject thereto or the date of completion of construction or commencement of operations, whichever is later; or (v) the Company shall, and in any such case the Company covenants that it will, within 180 days of the effective date of any such arrangement, apply an amount equal to the net sale proceeds from Sale and Leaseback Transactions to (x) repayment, redemption or retirement of Funded Debt of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or (y) investment in another Principal Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, and may permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, effect any Sale and

86

Leaseback Transaction, provided that the net sale proceeds from such Sale and Leaseback Transaction, together with the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Indebtedness (other than the Securities) secured by Liens upon Principal Properties not excepted by any of clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of Section 9.5, do not exceed 15% of the Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

Section 9.7. Annual Review Certificate. The Company covenants and agrees to deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, a certificate from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company stating that a review of the activities of the Company during such year and of performance under this Indenture has been made under his or her supervision and to the best of his or her knowledge, based on such review, the Company has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Indenture throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to him or her and the nature and status thereof. For purposes of this Section 9.7, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided under this Indenture.

ARTICLE 11

Redemption

Section 11.1. Applicability of Article. Securities (including interest coupons, if any) of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article.

Section 11.2. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the Company to redeem any Securities, including interest coupons, if any, that, at the

89

time of such election, may be redeemed at the option of the Company, shall be evidenced by or pursuant to a Board Resolution. In the case of any such redemption at the election of the Company of less than all the Securities or interest coupons, if any, of any series, the Company shall, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date, of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor of the Securities to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities (i) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture or (ii) pursuant to an election of the Company which is subject to a condition specified in the terms of such Securities, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction or condition.

Section 11.3. Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, if less than all the Securities (including interest coupons, if any) of a series with the same terms are to be redeemed, the Trustee, not more than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date, shall select the Securities of the series to be redeemed in such manner as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate. The Trustee shall make the selection from Securities of the series that are Outstanding and that have not previously been called for redemption and may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities, including interest coupons, if any, of that series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities, including interest coupons, if any, of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected by the Trustee for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. If the Company shall so direct, Securities registered in the name of the Company, any Affiliate or any Subsidiary thereof shall not be included in the Securities selected for redemption.

For purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities (including interest coupons, if any) shall relate, in the case of any Securities (including interest coupons, if any) redeemed or to be redeemed only in

90

part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities (including interest coupons, if any) which has been or is to be redeemed.

Section 11.4. Notice of Redemption. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 1.6 not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date to the Holders of the Securities to be redeemed.

All notices of redemption shall state:

(1) the Redemption Date;

(2) the Redemption Price;

(3) if less than all the Outstanding Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Security or Securities to be redeemed;

(4) the Place or Places of Payment where such Securities, together in the case of Bearer Securities with all interest coupons appertaining thereto, if any, maturing after the Redemption Date, are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price;

(5) that Securities of the series called for redemption and all unmatured interest coupons, if any, appertaining thereto must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price;

(6) that, on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date;

(7) that the redemption is from a sinking fund, if such is the case;

(8) that, unless otherwise specified in such notice, Bearer Securities of any series, if any, surrendered for redemption must be accompanied by all interest coupons maturing subsequent to the Redemption Date or the amount of any such missing interest coupon or interest coupons will be deducted from the Re-

91

demption Price, unless security or indemnity satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and any Paying Agent is furnished;

(9) the CUSIP number, if any, of the Securities;

(10) if applicable, the conversion or exchange price, the date on which the right to convert or exchange the Securities (or portions thereof to be redeemed) will terminate and the place or places where such Securities may be surrendered for conversion or exchange; and

(11) the procedures that a Holder must follow to surrender the Securities so to be redeemed.

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company.

Section 11.5. Deposit of Redemption Price. On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 9.3) an amount of money in the currency or currencies (including currency unit or units) in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.1 for the Securities of such series) sufficient to pay on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price of, and (unless the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) interest accrued to the Redemption Date on, all Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date.

Unless any Security by its terms prohibits any redemption obligation from being satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities (including Securities redeemed otherwise than through a sinking fund), the Company may deliver such Securities to the Trustee for crediting of an amount equal to the then applicable Redemption Price for such Securities against such payment obligation in accordance with the terms of such Securities and this Indenture.

Section 11.6. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company

92

shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest and the interest coupons for any such interest appertaining to any Bearer Security so to be redeemed, except to the extent provided below, shall be void. Except as provided in the next succeeding paragraph, upon surrender of any such Security, including interest coupons, if any, for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on Bearer Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States and its possessions (except as otherwise provided in Section 9.2) and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, only upon presentation and surrender of interest coupons for such interest; and provided, further, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, installments of interest on Registered Securities that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates that are on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.7.

If any Bearer Security surrendered for redemption shall not be accompanied by all appurtenant interest coupons maturing after the Redemption Date, such Bearer Security may be paid after deducting from the Redemption Price an amount equal to the face amount of all such missing interest coupons, or the surrender of such missing interest coupon or interest coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee if there be furnished to them such security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Bearer Security shall surrender to the Trustee or any Paying Agent any such missing interest coupon in respect of which a deduction shall have been made from the Redemption Price, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount so deducted; provided, however, that interest represented by interest coupons shall be payable only at an office or agency located outside of the United States (except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 9.2) and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, only upon presentation and surrender of those interest coupons.

93

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security.

Section 11.7. Securities Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part at any Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so required, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing), the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of that Security, without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, having the same form, terms and Stated Maturity, in any authorized denomination equal in aggregate principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Security surrendered.

ARTICLE 12

Sinking Funds

Section 12.1. Applicability of Article. The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for Securities of such series.

The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a "mandatory sinking fund payment," and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an "optional sinking fund payment." If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.2. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series.

Section 12.2. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. The Company (i) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) together, in the case of Bearer

94

Securities of such series, with all unmatured interest coupons appertaining thereto and (ii) may apply as a credit Securities of a series which have been
(x) redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, (y) converted or exchanged pursuant to Article 14 or (z) previously delivered to the Trustee and cancelled without reissuance pursuant to Section 3.9, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such series; provided that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

Section 12.3. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to
Section 12.2 and stating the basis for such credit and that such Securities have not been previously so credited, and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.3 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.4. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.6 and 11.7.

Section 13.3. Persons Entitled to Vote at Meetings. To be entitled to vote at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series issuable as Bearer Securities, a Person shall be (a) a Holder of one or more Outstanding Securities of such series, or (b) a Person appointed by an instrument in writing as proxy for a Holder or Holders of one or more Outstanding Securities of such series by such Holder or Holders. The only Persons who shall be entitled to be present or to speak at any meeting of Holders shall be the Persons entitled to vote at such meeting and their

96

counsel, any representatives of the Trustee and its counsel and any representatives of the Company and its counsel.

Section 13.4. Quorum; Action. The Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the applicable series shall constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum within 30 minutes of the time appointed for any such meeting, the meeting shall, if convened at the request of Holders of Securities of such series, be dissolved. In any other case the meeting may be adjourned for a period of not less than 10 days as determined by the chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such meeting. In the absence of a quorum at any such adjourned meeting, such adjourned meeting may be further adjourned for a period not less than 10 days as determined by the chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such adjourned meeting. Notice of the reconvening of any such adjourned meeting shall be given as provided in Section 13.2(a), except that such notice need be given only once not less than five days prior to the date on which the meeting is scheduled to be reconvened.

At the reconvening of any meeting adjourned for a lack of a quorum pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Persons entitled to vote 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the applicable series at the time shall constitute a quorum for the taking of any action set forth in the notice of the original meeting. Notice of the reconvening of a meeting adjourned for lack of a quorum shall state expressly the percentage of the principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series which shall constitute a quorum.

At a meeting or an adjourned meeting duly reconvened and at which a quorum is present as aforesaid, any resolution and all matters (except as limited by the proviso to Section 8.2) shall be effectively passed and decided if passed or decided by the Persons entitled to vote not less than the lesser of (i) a majority in principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the applicable series and (ii) 66 2/3% in principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series represented and voting at such meeting; provided, however, that any resolution with respect to any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other Act which this Indenture expressly provides may be made, given or taken by the Holders of a specified percentage, which is less than a majority, in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series may be adopted at a meeting or an adjourned meeting duly

Any resolution passed or decisions taken at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series issuable as Bearer Securities duly held in accordance with this Section shall be binding on all the Holders of Securities of such series and interest coupons, whether or not present or represented at the meeting.

In the event that any meeting shall be adjourned for lack of a quorum or that, at any meeting at which a quorum is present, any proposed resolution or decision shall not be passed or taken because the Holders of the percentage of Outstanding Securities of any series issuable as Bearer Securities needed to approve such resolution or decision did not vote in favor of such resolution or decision, the principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series represented at such meeting and voting in favor of such resolution or decision may be counted for purposes of calculating whether the consent of the Holders of the percentage of Outstanding Securities of such series needed in order to make, give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other action has been obtained, and such vote shall constitute the consent thereto of such Holders.

Section 13.5. Determination of Voting Rights; Conduct and Adjournment of Meetings.

Except as otherwise permitted or required by any such regulations, the holding of Securities of a series issuable as Bearer Securities shall be proved in the manner specified in Section 1.4 and the appointment of any proxy shall be provided in the manner specified in Section 1.4 or by having the signature of the Person executing the proxy witnessed or guaranteed by any trust company, bank

98

or banker authorized by Section 1.4 to certify to the holding of Bearer Securities. Such regulations may provide that written instruments appointing proxies, regular on their face, may be presumed valid and genuine without the proof specified in Section 1.4 or other proof.

(b) The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary chairman (which may be a Responsible Officer of the Trustee) of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have been called by the Company or by Holders of Securities of a series as provided in Section 13.2(b), in which case the Company or the Holders of Securities of such series calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like manner appoint a temporary chairman. A permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the meeting shall be elected by vote of the Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting.

(c) At any meeting each Holder of a Security or proxy shall be entitled to one vote for each U.S. $5,000 principal amount of Securities held or represented by him or her; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in respect of any Security challenged as not Outstanding and ruled by the chairman of the meeting to be not Outstanding. The chairman of the meeting shall have no right to vote, except as a Holder of a Security or proxy.

(d) Any meeting of Holders of Securities of a series issuable as Bearer Securities duly called pursuant to Section 13.2 at which a quorum is present may be adjourned from time to time by Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting, and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice.

The permanent chairman of the meeting shall appoint an inspector of votes who shall count all votes

99

cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make and file with the secretary of the meeting its verified written report of all votes cast at the meeting. A record of the proceedings of each meeting of Holders of Securities shall be prepared by the applicable secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the original report of the inspector of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more Persons having knowledge of the facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that said notice was given as provided in Section 13.2 and, if applicable, Section 13.4. At least two copies of such record shall be signed and verified by the affidavits of the permanent chairman and secretary of the meeting and one copy thereof shall be delivered to the Company and the other to the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee, the latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted at the meeting. Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated.

ARTICLE 14

Conversion or Exchange of Securities

Section 14.1. Applicability of Article. (a) The provisions of this Article 14 shall be applicable to the Securities of any series which are convertible or exchangeable into Equity Securities of the Company, and to the issuance of such Equity Securities upon the conversion or exchange of such Securities, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 3.1 for the Securities of such series.

(b) For purposes of this Article 14, the term "Equity Securities" shall mean all or any of the following, authorized from time to time: (i) the Company's Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "Common Stock"), (ii) the Company's Preferred Stock, no par value per share (the "Preferred Stock"), and (iii) any other equity securities of the Company.

Section 14.2. Exercise of Conversion or Exchange Privilege.
(a) In order to exercise a conversion or exchange privilege, the Holder of a Security of a series with such privilege shall surrender such Security, together, in the case of any Bearer Security, with all unmatured interest coupons and any matured interest coupons in default appertaining thereto, to the Company at the office or agency maintained for that purpose pursuant to
Section 9.2, accompanied by written notice to the Company that the Holder elects to convert or exchange such Security or a specified

100

portion thereof. Such notice shall also state, if different from the name and address of such Holder, the name or names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for Equity Securities which shall be issuable on such conversion or exchange shall be issued. Registered Securities surrendered for conversion or exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed by or accompanied by instruments of transfer in forms satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by the registered Holder or its attorney duly authorized in writing.

(b) Registered Securities so surrendered for conversion or exchange during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date to the opening of business on the corresponding Interest Payment Date (excluding Securities or portions thereof called for redemption during such period) shall also be accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company of an amount equal to the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date on the principal amount of such Security then being converted or exchanged, and such interest shall be payable to such registered Holder on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion or exchange of such Security, subject to the provisions of Section 3.7 relating to the payment of Defaulted Interest by the Company.

(c) As promptly as practicable after the receipt of such notice and of any payment required pursuant to a Board Resolution and, subject to Section 3.3, set forth, or determined in the manner provided, in an Officers' Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto setting forth the terms of such series of Security, and the surrender of such Security in accordance with such reasonable regulations as the Company may prescribe, the Company shall issue and shall deliver, at the office or agency at which such Security is surrendered, to such Holder or on its written order, a certificate or certificates for the number of Equity Securities issuable upon the conversion or exchange of such Security (or specified portion thereof), in accordance with the provisions of such Board Resolution, Officers' Certificate or supplemental indenture, and cash as provided therein in respect of any fractional share of such Equity Security otherwise issuable upon such conversion or exchange.

(d) Such conversion or exchange shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which such notice and such payment, if required, shall have been received in proper order for

101

conversion or exchange by the Company and such Security shall have been surrendered as aforesaid and at such time the rights of the Holder of such Security as such Security Holder shall cease and the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for Equity Securities of the Company shall be issuable upon such conversion or exchange shall be deemed to have become the Holder or Holders of record of the Equity Securities represented thereby. Except as set forth above and subject to paragraph (d) of
Section 3.7, no payment or adjustment shall be made upon any conversion or exchange on account of any interest accrued on the Securities surrendered for conversion or exchange, or on account of any dividends on the Equity Securities of the Company issued upon such conversion or exchange if the record date for the payment of such dividends occurs prior to or on the date on which such conversion or exchange shall be deemed to have been effected.

In the case of any Security which is converted or exchanged in part only, upon such conversion or exchange the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or on the order of the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted or unexchanged portion of such Security.

Section 14.3. No Fractional Equity Securities. No fractional Equity Security of the Company shall be issued upon conversions or exchanges of Securities of any series. If more than one Security shall be surrendered for conversion or exchange at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares of the Equity Security which shall be issuable upon conversion or exchange shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted hereby) so surrendered. If, except for the provisions of this
Section 14.3, any Holder of a Security or Securities would be entitled to a fractional share of any Equity Security of the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such Security or Securities, or specified portions thereof, the Company shall pay to such Holder an amount in cash equal to the current market value of such fractional share computed, (i) if such Equity Security is listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on a national securities exchange, on the basis of the last reported sale price regular way on the principal exchange where such Equity Security is listed or admitted, on the last trading day prior to the date of conversion or exchange upon which such a sale shall

102

have been effected, (ii) if such Equity Security is not at the time so listed or admitted on a national securities exchange but is quoted on the National Market System of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASDAQ"), on the basis of the average of the bid and asked prices of such Equity Security on NASDAQ on the last trading day prior to the date of conversion or exchange, (iii) if such Equity Security is not at the time so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on a national securities exchange or quoted on NASDAQ, on the basis of the average of the bid and asked prices of such Equity Security in the over-the-counter market, on the last trading day prior to the date of conversion or exchange, as reported by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated or similar organization if the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated is no longer reporting such information, or (iv) in accordance with the terms of the supplemental indenture or Board Resolutions setting the terms of the Securities of such series. For purposes of this Section, "trading day" shall mean each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday other than any day on which the applicable Equity Security is not traded or quoted on a national securities exchange, or if the applicable Equity Security is not traded or quoted on a national securities exchange, on NASDAQ or the principal exchange or market on which the applicable Equity Security is traded or quoted.

Section 14.4. Adjustment of Conversion or Exchange Price; Consolidation or Merger. The conversion or exchange price of Securities of any series that is convertible or exchangeable into an Equity Security of the Company shall be adjusted for any stock dividends, stock splits, reclassification, combinations or similar transactions, and the securities, assets or other property into or for which such Securities may be converted or exchanged as a result of any consolidation, merger, combination or similar transaction shall be determined, in accordance with the terms of the supplemental indenture or Board Resolutions setting the terms of the Securities of such series.

Whenever the conversion or exchange price is adjusted, the Company shall compute the adjusted conversion or exchange price in accordance with the terms of the applicable Board Resolution or supplemental indenture and shall prepare an Officers' Certificate setting forth the adjusted conversion or exchange price and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Whenever the securities, assets or other property into or for which Securities of any series may be converted

103

or exchanged are changed as a result of any consolidation, merger or similar transaction, the Company shall determine the nature and amount of such securities, assets or other property in accordance with the terms of the applicable Board Resolution or supplemental indenture and shall prepare an Officer's Certificate describing such securities, assets or other property and stating the amount of such securities, assets or other property into or for which such Securities have become convertible or exchangeable. Such certificates shall forthwith be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion or exchange of Securities pursuant to Section 9.2 and, if different, with the Trustee. The Company shall forthwith cause a notice setting forth the adjusted conversion or exchange price or describing such securities, assets or other property, as applicable, to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Registered Securities of such series at its address appearing on the Register and to any conversion or exchange agent other than the Trustee.

Section 14.5. Notice of Certain Corporate Actions. If any series of Securities which are directly or indirectly convertible or exchangeable for any Equity Securities are Outstanding, in case:

(a) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on any class of such Equity Securities payable otherwise than in cash out of its retained earnings (other than a dividend for which approval of any stockholder of the Company is required); or

(b) the Company shall authorize the granting to the holders of any class of such Equity Securities of rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any other rights (other than any such grant for which approval of any stockholder of the Company is required); or

(c) of any reclassification of any class of such Equity Securities (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding Equity Securities, or of any consolidation, merger or share exchange to which the Company is a party and for which approval of any stockholder of the Company is required), or of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

104

(d) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;

then the Company shall cause to be filed with the Trustee, and shall cause to be mailed to all Holders at their addresses as they shall appear in the Register, at least 15 days (or 10 days in any case specified in clause (a) or
(b) above) prior to the applicable record date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, rights, options or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the Holders of such Equity Securities of record to be entitled to such dividend, distribution, rights, options or warrants are to be determined, or (ii) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, share exchange, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of such Equity Securities of record shall be entitled to exchange such Equity Securities for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, share exchange, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. If at any time the Trustee shall not be the conversion or exchange agent, a copy of such notice shall also forthwith be filed by the Company with the Trustee.

Section 14.6. Reservation of Equity Securities. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Equity Securities, for the purpose of effecting the conversion or exchange of Securities, the full number of Equity Securities of the Company then issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all Outstanding Securities of any series that has conversion or exchange rights.

Section 14.7. Payment of Certain Taxes Upon Conversion or Exchange. The Company will pay any and all taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of its Equity Securities on conversion or exchange of Securities pursuant hereto. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of its Equity Securities in a name other than that of the Holder of the Security or Securities to be converted or exchanged, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issue has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid.

105

Section 14.8. Duties of Trustee Regarding Conversion or Exchange. Neither the Trustee nor any conversion or exchange agent shall at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Securities of any series that is convertible or exchangeable into Equity Securities of the Company to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the conversion or exchange price, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, whether herein or in any supplemental indenture, any resolutions of the Board of Directors or written instrument executed by one or more officers of the Company provided to be employed in making the same. Neither the Trustee nor any conversion or exchange agent shall be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Equity Securities of the Company, or of any securities or property, which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion or exchange of any Securities and neither the Trustee nor any conversion or exchange agent makes any representation with respect thereto. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, neither the Trustee nor any conversion or exchange agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any of its Equity Securities or stock certificates or other securities or property upon the surrender of any Security for the purpose of conversion or exchange or to comply with any of the covenants of the Company contained in this Article 14 or in the applicable supplemental indenture, resolutions of the Board of Directors or written instrument executed by one or more duly authorized officers of the Company.

Section 14.9. Repayment of Certain Funds Upon Conversion or Exchange. Any funds which at any time have been deposited by the Company or on its behalf with the Trustee or any Paying Agent for the purpose of paying the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on any of the Securities (including funds deposited for any sinking fund referred to in Article 12 hereof) and which shall not be required for such purposes because of the conversion or exchange of such Securities as provided in this Article 14 shall after such conversion or exchange be repaid to the Company by the Trustee upon the Company's written request by Company Request.

This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof (collectively, the "Notes"), limited to $100,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, and is issued pursuant to Supplemental Indenture No. 1, dated _________, 1997, between the Company and the Trustee, relating to the Notes.

The Notes shall not be subject to redemption at the option of the Company at any time and the Company shall have no obligation to redeem or purchase the Notes pursuant to any sinking fund or upon the happening of any specified event or at the option of any Holder of the Notes.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.


The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series adversely affected (voting as one class). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive past Defaults or Events of Default under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject to Section 3.7 of the Indenture) interest on this Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not this Note shall be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF DEBENTURE]

This Debenture is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the "Securities"), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of _________, 1997 (herein called the "Indenture"), between the Company and The First National Bank of Chicago (herein called the "Trustee", which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Debenture is one of the series designated on the face hereof (collectively, the "Debentures"), limited to $100,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, and is issued pursuant to Supplemental Indenture No. 2, dated _________, 1997, between the Company and the Trustee, relating to the Debentures.

The Debentures shall not be subject to redemption at the option of the Company at any time and the Company shall have no obligation to redeem or purchase the Debentures pursuant to any sinking fund or upon the happening of any specified event or at the option of any Holder of the Debentures.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance and covenant defeasance at any time of the indebtedness on this Debenture upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Debenture.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Debentures may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.


The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series adversely affected (voting as one class). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive past Defaults or Events of Default under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Debenture shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Debenture and of any Debenture issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Debenture.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Debenture or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and interest on, this Debenture at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations as therein set forth, the transfer of this Debenture is registrable on the Register, upon surrender of this Debenture for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company to be maintained for that purpose in The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and the Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Debentures, of like tenor, of authorized denominations and

2

for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Debentures are issuable only in registered form in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Debentures are exchangeable for Debentures having a like aggregate principal amount, of like tenor and having a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Debenture for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Debenture is registered as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject to Section 3.7 of the Indenture) interest on this Debenture and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not this Debenture shall be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Capitalized terms used in this Debenture without definition shall have the meanings specified in the Indenture.

If Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer Securities, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of Securities of such series may, alternatively, be embodied in and evidenced by the record of Holders of Securities of such series voting in favor thereof pursuant to the third paragraph of Section 13.4, either in person or by proxies duly appointed in writing, at any meeting of Holders of Securities of such series duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article 13, or a combination of such instruments and any such record.

Such instrument or instruments and record (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments or, in the case of Holders of Securities of a series issuable as Bearer Securities, so voting at such meeting. The Company and the Trustee may assume that any Act of a Holder has not been modified or revoked unless written notice to the contrary is received prior to the time that the action to which such Act relates has become effec-

16

tive. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 315 of the Trust Indenture Act) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section. The record of any meeting of Holders of Securities issuable as Bearer Securities shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 13.6.

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

(c) The ownership of Bearer Securities may be proved by the production of such Bearer Securities or by a certificate executed by any trust company, bank, banker or other depository, wherever situated, if such certificate shall be deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory, showing that at the date therein mentioned such Person had on deposit with such trust company, bank, banker or other depository, or exhibited to it, the Bearer Securities therein described; or such facts may be proved by the certificate or affidavit of the Person holding such Bearer Securities, if such certificate or affidavit is deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory. The Trustee and the Company may assume that such ownership of any Bearer Security continues until (i) another such certificate or affidavit bearing a later date issued in respect of the same Bearer Security is produced, (ii) such Bearer Security is produced to the Trustee by some other Person, (iii) such Bearer Security is surrendered in exchange for a Registered Security or (iv) such Bearer Security is no longer Outstanding. The ownership of Bearer Securities may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

(d) The ownership of Registered Securities shall be proved by the Register.

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

17

(f) If the Company shall solicit from the Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company may, at its option, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders of Registered Securities entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. Notwithstanding Section 316(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, any such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not more than 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith and no later than the date such first solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of Registered Securities of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.

Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to give or take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents, each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security to which such appointment relates.

Section 1.5. Notices, etc., to Trustee and Company. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

(1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided, including, without limitation, as provided in
Section 1.4(a)) if in

18

writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, or

(2) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided, including, without limitation, as provided in
Section 1.4(a)) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to it at 1800 South Baltimore Avenue, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74119, Attention: Secretary, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company.

Section 1.6. Notice to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, (i) if any of the Securities affected by such event are Registered Securities, such notice to the Holders thereof shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each such Holder affected by such event, at his or her address as it appears in the Register, within the time prescribed for the giving of such notice, and (ii) if any of the Securities affected by such event are Bearer Securities, notice to the Holders thereof shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein or in the terms of such Bearer Securities expressly provided) if published once in an Authorized Newspaper in New York, New York, and in such other city or cities, if any, as may be specified as contemplated by Section 3.1. Such notices shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such mailing or publication.

In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail or by publication, neither the failure to mail or publish such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed or published, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Registered Securities or of Bearer Securities. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice.

If by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice as provided above, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. If it is impossible or, in the opinion

19

of the Trustee, impracticable to give any notice by publication in the manner herein required, then such publication in lieu thereof as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient publication of such notice.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language, except that any published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication.

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

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

Section 1.7. Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 1.8. Successor and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Section 1.9. Separability. In case any provision of this Indenture or the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 1.10. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, expressed or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

20

Section 1.11. Incorporators, Stockholders, Officers and Directors of the Company Exempt from Individual Liability. No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of or contained in this Indenture or of or contained in any Security or interest coupon appertaining thereto, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, or because of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or any successor Person, either directly or through the Company or any successor Person, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty, by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise; it being expressly understood that all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of the acceptance of, and as a part of the consideration for the execution of this Indenture and the issuance of, the Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto.

Section 1.12. Governing Law; Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. THIS INDENTURE, THE SECURITIES AND ANY INTEREST COUPONS APPERTAINING THERETO SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. This Indenture is subject to the Trust Indenture Act and if any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with the Trust Indenture Act, the Trust Indenture Act shall control. Whether or not this Indenture is required to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act required to be included in an indenture in order for such indenture to be so qualified shall be deemed to be included in this Indenture with the same effect as if such provisions were set forth herein and any provisions hereof which may not be included in an indenture which is so qualified shall be deemed to be deleted or modified to the extent such provisions would be required to be deleted or modified in an indenture so qualified.

Section 1.13. Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated Maturity or Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of any Security or interest coupon other than a provision in the Securities of any series which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section), payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment

21

with the same force and effect as if made on such date; provided that no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated Maturity or Maturity, as the case may be, if such amount is so paid on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 1.14. Moneys of Different Currencies to Be Segregated. The Trustee shall segregate all moneys, funds and accounts held by the Trustee hereunder in one currency from any moneys, funds and accounts held by the Trustee hereunder in one currency from any moneys, funds or accounts in any other currencies, notwithstanding any provision herein which would otherwise permit the Trustee to commingle such amounts.

Section 1.15. Independence of Covenants. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any such covenant, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

Section 1.16. Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

30

delivery of such Securities or were not Officers at the date of such Securities.

At any time and from time to time, the Company may deliver Securities, together with any interest coupons appertaining thereto, of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities to or upon the order of the Company (as set forth in such Company Order); provided, however, that, in the case of Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Securities from time to time in accordance with such other procedures (including, without limitation, the receipt by the Trustee of oral or electronic instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agents, promptly confirmed in writing) acceptable to the Trustee as may be specified by or pursuant to a Company Order delivered to the Trustee prior to the time of the first authentication of Securities of such series.

If the form or terms of the Securities of a series have been established by or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions or one or more indentures supplemental hereto as permitted by Sections 2.1 and 3.1, in authenticating such Securities and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to section 315(a) through (d) of the Trust Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon,

(i) an Opinion of Counsel stating:

(1) if the form or forms of such Securities and any interest coupons have been established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution as permitted by Section 2.1, that such forms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

(2) if the terms of such Securities and any interest coupons have been, or, in the case of Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, will be, established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution as permitted by Section 3.1, that such terms have been, or, in the case of Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, will be, established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture, subject, in the

31

case of Securities offered in a Periodic Offering, to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel;

(3) if the form or terms of such Securities have been established in an indenture supplemental hereto, that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and, when duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trustee, will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law), and (ii) such other reasonable exceptions as may be specified in such Opinion of Counsel; and

(4) that such Securities, together with any interest coupons appertaining thereto, when issued by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights and to general equity principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law) and except further as enforcement thereof may be limited by (A) requirements that a claim with respect to any Securities denominated other than in Dollars (or a Foreign Currency or currency unit judgment in respect of such claim) be converted into Dollars at a rate of exchange prevailing on a date determined pursuant to applicable law or (B) governmental authority to limit, delay or prohibit the making of payments in Foreign Currencies or currency units or payments outside the United States, and (ii) such other reasonable exceptions as may be specified in such Opinion of Counsel; and

(ii) an Officers' Certificate stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the issuance of such Securities have been complied with and that, to the knowledge of the signers of such cer-

32

tificate, no Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall have occurred and be continuing.

Notwithstanding that such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate such Securities if, in the opinion of the Trustee (after consultation with counsel), the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will materially adversely affect the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise or if the Trustee determines that such authentication may not lawfully be made.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1 and of the two preceding paragraphs, if all of the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers' Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.1 or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to the two preceding paragraphs in connection with the authentication of each Security of such series if such documents, with appropriate modifications to cover such future issuances, are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued.

With respect to Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, the Trustee may rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any of such Securities, the form and terms thereof and the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof, upon the Opinion of Counsel and the other documents delivered pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 3.1 and this Section, as applicable, in connection with the first authentication of Securities of such series.

If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 3.1 that the Securities of a series are to be issued in whole or in part in global form, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section and the Company Order with respect to such series, authenticate and deliver one or more Securities in global form that (i) shall represent and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series to be represented by such Security or Securities in global form, (ii) shall be registered, if a Registered Security, in the name of the Depositary for such Security or Securities in global form or the nominee of such Depositary, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depositary or pursuant to such De-

33

positary's instruction and (iv) shall bear the legend set forth in Section 2.4.

Each Depositary designated pursuant to Section 3.1 for a Registered Security in global form must, at the time of its designation and at all times while it serves as Depositary, be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and any other applicable statute or regulation. If requested by the Company, the Trustee shall enter into an agreement with a Depositary governing the respective duties and rights of such Depositary and the Trustee with regard to Securities issued in global form.

Each Registered Security shall be dated the date of its authentication and each Bearer Security shall be dated as of the date specified pursuant to Section 3.1.

No Security or interest coupon appertaining thereto shall be entitled to any benefits under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of one of the authorized signatories of the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent and no interest coupon shall be valid until the Security to which it appertains has been so authenticated. Such signature upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. Except as permitted by Section 3.6 or 3.7, the Trustee shall not authenticate and deliver any Bearer Security unless all appurtenant interest coupons for interest then matured have been detached and cancelled.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.9 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 1.2 hereof and need not be accompanied by an Officers' Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall not be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 3.4. Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the

34

Company may execute and, upon Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver temporary Securities of such series which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor and form, with or without interest coupons, of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities and interest coupons, if any. In the case of Securities of any series, such temporary Securities may be in global form, representing all or a portion of the Outstanding Securities of such series.

Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form, each of which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions thereof, if temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company pursuant to Section 9.2 in a Place of Payment for such series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series (accompanied by any unmatured interest coupons appertaining thereto), the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor; provided, however, that no definitive Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Registered Security; and provided, further, that no definitive Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Bearer Security unless such delivery shall occur only outside the United States. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1.

Section 3.5. Registration, Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or in any office or agency to be maintained by the Company in accordance with
Section 9.2 in a Place of Payment a register (the "Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,

35

the Company shall provide for the registration of Registered Securities and the registration of transfers of Registered Securities. The Register shall be in written form or any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed "Registrar" for the purpose of registering Registered Securities and transfers of Registered Securities as herein provided.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Registered Security of any series at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 9.2 in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Registered Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor and containing identical terms and provisions.

Bearer Securities (except for any temporary global Bearer Securities) or any interest coupons appertaining thereto (except for interest coupons attached to any temporary global Bearer Security) shall be transferable by delivery.

At the option of the Holder, Registered Securities of any series (except a Registered Security in global form) may be exchanged for other Registered Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor and containing identical terms and provisions, upon surrender of the Registered Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Registered Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Registered Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, Bearer Securities may not be issued in exchange for Registered Securities.

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, at the option of the Holder, Bearer Securities of such series may be exchanged for Registered Securities (if the Securities of such series are issuable in registered form) or Bearer Securities (if Bearer Securities of such series are issuable in more than one denomination and such exchanges are permitted by such series) of the same series, of any authorized denominations, of like aggregate principal amount and tenor and containing identical terms and condi-

36

tions, upon surrender of the Bearer Securities to be exchanged at any such office or agency, with all unmatured interest coupons and all matured interest coupons in default thereto appertaining. If the Holder of a Bearer Security is unable to produce any such unmatured interest coupon or coupons or matured interest coupon or coupons in default, such exchange may be effected if the Bearer Securities are accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company and the Trustee in an amount equal to the face amount of such missing interest coupon or coupons, or the surrender of such missing interest coupon or interest coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee if there be furnished to them such security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Security shall surrender to any Paying Agent any such missing interest coupon in respect of which such a payment shall have been made, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such payment; provided, however, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.2, interest represented by interest coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of those interest coupons at an office or agency located outside the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in case any Bearer Security of any series is surrendered at any such office or agency in exchange for a Registered Security of the same series after the close of business at such office or agency on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related date for payment of Defaulted Interest, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the interest coupon relating to such Interest Payment Date or proposed date of payment, as the case may be (or, if such interest coupon is so surrendered with such Bearer Security, such interest coupon shall be returned to the Person so surrendering the Bearer Security), and interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of the Registered Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security, but will be payable only to the Holder of such interest coupon, when due in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the exchange of Bearer Securities for Registered Securities shall be subject to applicable laws and regulations in effect at the time of exchange. Neither the Company, the Trustee nor the Registrar shall exchange any Bearer Securi-

37

ties for Registered Securities if it has received an Opinion of Counsel that as a result of such exchange the Company would suffer adverse consequences under the United States Federal income tax laws and regulations then in effect and the Company has delivered to the Trustee a Company Order directing the Trustee not to make such exchanges thereafter, unless and until the Trustee receives a subsequent Company Order to the contrary. The Company shall deliver copies of such Company Order to the Registrar.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in certificated form, a Security in global form representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

If at any time the Depositary for the Securities of a series notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Securities of such series or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities of such series shall no longer be eligible under Section 3.3, the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the Securities of such series. If a successor Depositary for the Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company prior to the resignation of the Depositary and, in any event, within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company's designation of the Depositary pursuant to Section 3.1(b)(23) shall no longer be effective with respect to the Securities of such series and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of certificated Securities of such series of like tenor, shall authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series of like tenor in certificated form, in authorized denominations and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Security or Securities of such series of like tenor in global form in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form.

The Company may at any time in its sole discretion determine that Securities issued in global form shall no longer be represented by such a Security or Securities in global form. In such event the Company shall execute, and

38

the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of certificated Securities of such series of like tenor, shall authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series of like tenor in certificated form, in authorized denominations and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Security or Securities of such series of like tenor in global form in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form.

If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to a series of Securities, the Depositary for such series may surrender a Security in global form of such series in exchange in whole or in part for Securities of such series in certificated form on such terms as are acceptable to the Company and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, without service charge,

(i) to each Person specified by such Depositary a new certificated Security or Securities of the same series of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Person in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person's beneficial interest in the Security in global form; and

(ii) to such Depositary a new Security in global form of like tenor in a denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered Security in global form and the aggregate principal amount of certificated Securities delivered to Holders thereof.

Upon the exchange of a Security in global form for Securities in certificated form, such Security in global form shall be cancelled by the Trustee. Unless expressly provided with respect to the Securities of any series that such Security may be exchanged for Bearer Securities, Securities in certificated form issued in exchange for a Security in global form pursuant to this Section shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Security in global form, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee in writing. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

Whenever any Securities are surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall

39

authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or upon any exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

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

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or for any exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration or transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.4 or 11.7 not involving any transfer.

The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange any Securities for a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection for redemption of Securities of like tenor and of the series of which such Security is a part and ending at the close of business on the earliest date on which the relevant notice of redemption is deemed to have been given to all Holders of Securities of like tenor and of such series to be redeemed; (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Registered Security so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part; or
(iii) to exchange any Bearer Security so selected for redemption, except that such a Bearer Security may be exchanged for a Registered Security of that series and like tenor; provided that such Registered Security shall be simultaneously surrendered for redemption.

The foregoing provisions relating to registration, transfer and exchange may be modified, supplemented or superseded with respect to any series of Securities by a Board Resolution or in one or more indentures supplemental hereto.

40

Section 3.6. Replacement Securities. If a mutilated Security or a Security with a mutilated interest coupon appertaining to it is surrendered to the Trustee, together with, in proper cases, such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company or the Trustee to save each of them harmless, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a replacement Registered Security, if such surrendered Security was a Registered Security, or a replacement Bearer Security with interest coupons corresponding to the interest coupons appertaining to the surrendered Security, if such surrendered Security was a Bearer Security, of the same series and date of maturity.

If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee
(i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security or Security with a destroyed, lost or stolen interest coupon and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security or interest coupon has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security or in exchange for the Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen interest coupon appertains (with all appurtenant interest coupons not destroyed, lost or stolen), a replacement Registered Security, if such Holder's claim appertains to a Registered Security, or a replacement Bearer Security with interest coupons corresponding to the interest coupons appertaining to the destroyed, lost or stolen Bearer Security or the Bearer Security to which such lost, destroyed or stolen interest coupon appertains, if such Holder's claim appertains to a Bearer Security, of the same series and principal amount, containing identical terms and provisions and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding with interest coupons corresponding to the interest coupons, if any, appertaining to the destroyed, lost or stolen Security.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security or interest coupon has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security or interest coupon, pay such Security or interest coupon; provided, however, that payment of principal of and any premium or interest on Bearer Securities shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.2, be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States and, unless otherwise specified as

41

contemplated by Section 3.1, any interest on Bearer Securities shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the interest coupons appertaining thereto.

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) connected therewith.

Every new Security of any series with its interest coupons, if any, issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security, or in exchange for a Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen interest coupon appertains, shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security and its interest coupon, if any, or the destroyed, lost or stolen interest coupon, shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series and their interest coupons, if any, duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities or interest coupons.

Section 3.7. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. (a) Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, interest, if any, on any Registered Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest at the office or agency maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 9.2; provided, however, that at the option of the Company, interest on any series of Registered Securities that bear interest may be paid (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as it shall appear on the Register of Holders of Securities of such series or (ii) at the expense of the Company, by wire transfer to an account maintained by the Person entitled thereto as specified in the Register of Holders of Securities of such series.

42

Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, (i) interest, if any, on Bearer Securities shall be paid only against presentation and surrender of the interest coupons for such interest installments as are evidenced thereby as they mature and (ii) original issue discount, if any, on Bearer Securities shall be paid only against presentation and surrender of such Securities; in either case at the office of a Paying Agent located outside the United States, unless the Company shall have otherwise instructed the Trustee in writing, provided that any such instruction for payment in the United States does not cause any Bearer Security to be treated as a "registration-required obligation" under United States laws and regulations. The interest, if any, on any temporary Bearer Security shall be paid, as to any installment of interest evidenced by an interest coupon attached thereto only upon presentation and surrender of such interest coupon and, as to other installments of interest, only upon presentation of such Security for notation thereon of the payment of such interest. If at the time a payment of principal of or interest, if any, on a Bearer Security or interest coupon shall become due, the payment of the full amount so payable at the office or offices of all the Paying Agents outside the United States is illegal or effectively precluded because of the imposition of exchange controls or other similar restrictions on the payment of such amount in Dollars, then the Company may instruct the Trustee in writing to make such payments at a Paying Agent located in the United States, provided that provision for such payment in the United States would not cause such Bearer Security to be treated as a "registration-required obligation" under United States laws and regulations.

(b) Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, any interest on Securities of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date in the case of Registered Securities and upon presentation and surrender of the applicable interest coupon in accordance with the second paragraph of Section 3.7(a) in the case of Bearer Securities (herein called "Defaulted Interest"), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of their having been such Holders, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause
(1) or (2) below:

(1) In the case of Registered Securities, the Company may elect to make payment of such Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names such Registered

43

Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Registered Security and the date of the proposed payment, and shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause (1) provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of such Registered Securities at his or her address as it appears in the Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Registered Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

(2)(x) In the case of Registered Securities, the Company may make payment of such Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names such Registered Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a specified date in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Registered Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause (2)(x), such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by

44

the Trustee; or (y) unless otherwise provided as contemplated by
Section 3.1, in the case of Bearer Securities, the Company may make payment of Defaulted Interest on such Bearer Securities in any lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Bearer Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause (2)(y), such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

(c) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 3.5, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

(d) Subject to the provisions of Section 14.2, in the case of any Registered Security which is converted or exchanged after any Regular Record Date and on or prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (other than any Security the principal of (or premium, if any, on) which shall become due and payable, whether at a Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption, or otherwise, prior to such Interest Payment Date), interest whose Stated Maturity is on such Interest Payment Date shall be payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding such conversion or exchange and such interest (whether or not punctually paid or duly provided for) shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Registered Security (or any one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the immediately preceding sentence, in the case of any Security which is converted or exchanged, interest whose Stated Maturity is after the date of conversion or exchange of such Security shall not be payable.

Section 3.8. Persons Deemed Owners. Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, prior to due presentment of any Registered Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Registered Security is registered as the owner of such Registered Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 3.7) interest on such Registered Security and for all other

45

purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Registered Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the bearer of any Bearer Security and the bearer of any interest coupon as the absolute owner of such Bearer Security or interest coupon for the purpose of receiving payment thereof or on account thereof and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Bearer Security or interest coupon be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

None of the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Security in global form, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. No holder of any beneficial interest in any Security in global form, held on its behalf by or through a Depositary, shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to such Security in global form, and such Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the owner of such Security in global form for all purposes whatsoever. With respect to any Security in global form, nothing herein shall prevent the Company or the Trustee, or any agent of the Company or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by any Depositary (or its nominee), as a Holder, with respect to such Security in global form or impair, as between such Depositary and owners of beneficial interests in such Security in global form, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of such Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such Security in global form.

Section 3.9. Cancellation. All Securities and interest coupons appertaining thereto, if any, surrendered for payment, redemption, conversion, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the

46

Trustee for cancellation any Securities, together with interest coupons appertaining thereto, if any, previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities, together with interest coupons appertaining thereto, if any, previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Securities and interest coupons so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section 3.9, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities and interest coupons held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with its customary procedures, and the Trustee shall thereafter deliver to the Company a certificate with respect to such disposition.

Section 3.10. Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

Section 3.11. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then generally in use and in addition to the other identification numbers printed on the Securities), and, in such case, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

Section 3.12. Currency and Manner of Payment in Respect of Securities. Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 3.1, payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on any Security of such series will be made in the currency or currencies or currency unit or units in which such Security is payable. The provisions of this Section 3.12 may be modified or superseded pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to any Securities.

Section 4.4. Defeasance and Discharge. On and after the date on which the conditions set forth in Section 4.6 are satisfied with respect to the Securities of or within any series, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and been discharged from its obligations with respect to such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto (hereinafter "defeasance"). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto which shall thereafter be deemed to be "Outstanding" only for the purposes of Section 4.7 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clause (ii) of this Section, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto and this Indenture insofar as such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto are concerned (and the Trustee, upon payment of all amounts due it under Section 6.7, at the expense of the Company, shall on a Company Order execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except the

50

following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (i) the rights of Holders of such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto to receive, solely from the trust funds described in Section 4.6(a) and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Securities or any interest coupons appertaining thereto when such payments are due; (ii) the Company's obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 3.5, 3.6, 9.2 and 9.3 and with respect to the payment of additional amounts, if any, payable with respect to such Securities as specified pursuant to Section 3.1(b)(16); (iii) the Company's obligations with respect to a conversion or exchange of such Securities; (iv) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (v) this Article 4. Subject to compliance with this Article 4, the Company may defease the Securities of any series and any interest coupons appertaining thereto under this Section 4.4 notwithstanding a prior covenant defeasance (as defined herein) under Section 4.5 with respect to such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto. Following a defeasance, payment of such Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default.

Section 4.5. Covenant Defeasance. On and after the date on which the conditions set forth in Section 4.6 (other than Section 4.6(c)) are satisfied with respect to the Securities of or within any series, (i) the Company shall be released from its obligations under Sections 7.1, 9.4, 9.5 and 9.6 and, if specified pursuant to Section 3.1, its obligations under any other covenant, with respect to such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto and (ii) the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 5.1(3) or
5.1(7) (with respect to any of the obligations described in clause (i) above) or 5.1(4) shall be deemed not to be or result in a Default or Event of Default (hereinafter, "covenant defeasance"), and such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto shall thereafter be deemed to be not "Outstanding" for the purposes of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with Section 7.1, 9.4, 9.5 or 9.6, such other covenant specified pursuant to Section 3.1, or Section 5.1(4), but shall continue to be deemed "Outstanding" for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto, the Company may omit to comply with and

51

shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such Section or such other covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or such other covenant or by reason of reference in any such Section or such other covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under
Section 5.1(3), 5.1(4) or 5.1(7) or otherwise, as the case may be, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto shall be unaffected thereby.

Section 4.6. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to application of Section 4.4 or Section 4.5 to any Securities of or within a series and any interest coupons appertaining thereto:

(a) The Company shall have deposited or caused to be deposited irrevocably with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 6.10 who shall agree to comply with, and shall be entitled to the benefits of, the provisions of Sections 4.3 through 4.10 inclusive and the last paragraph of Section 9.3 applicable to the Trustee, for purposes of such Sections also a "Trustee") as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the payments referred to in clauses (x) and (y) of this Section 4.6(a), specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto, with written instructions to the Trustee as to the application thereof, (A) money in an amount (in such currency, currencies or currency unit or units in which such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto are then specified as payable at Maturity), or (B) if Securities of such series are not subject to repayment at the option of Holders, Government Obligations which through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment referred to in clause (x) or (y) of this Section 4.6(a), money in an amount or (C) a combination thereof in an amount, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants or a nationally recognized investment banking firm expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and dis-

52

charge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge, (x) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto on the Maturity of such principal or installment of principal or interest and (y) any mandatory sinking fund payments applicable to such Securities on the day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto. Before such a deposit the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Securities at a future date or dates in accordance with Article 11 which shall be given effect in applying the foregoing.

(b) No Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series shall have occurred or be continuing on the date of such a deposit or shall occur as a result of such a deposit or, insofar as Sections 5.1(5) and (6) are concerned, shall occur at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period).

(c) In the case of an election under Section 4.4, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (ii) since the date of execution of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times, as would have been the case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred.

(d) In the case of an election under Section 4.5, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax

53

purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times, as would have been the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance had not occurred.

(e) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance under Section 4.4 or the covenant defeasance under Section 4.5 (as the case may be) have been complied with.

(f) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with any additional or substitute terms, conditions or limitations which may be imposed on the Company in connection therewith as contemplated by Section 3.1.

(g) At the time of such deposit: (A) no Default in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Senior Debt shall have occurred and be continuing or (B) no other Event of Default with respect to any Senior Debt shall have occurred and be continuing and shall have resulted in such Senior Debt becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable, or, in the case of either clause (A) or clause (B) above, each such Default or Event of Default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist.

Section 4.7. Deposited Money and Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 9.3, all money and Government Obligations (or other property as may be provided pursuant to Section 3.1) (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.6 in respect of any Securities of any series and any interest coupons appertaining thereto shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds

54

except as provided herein and except to the extent required by law.

Section 4.8. Repayment to Company. The Trustee (and any Paying Agent) shall promptly pay to the Company upon Company Request any excess money or securities held by them at any time.

The provisions of the last paragraph of Section 9.3 shall apply to any money or securities held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent under this Article 4 that remain unclaimed for two years after the Maturity of any series of Securities for which money or securities have been deposited pursuant to Section 4.6(a).

Section 4.9. Indemnity for Government Obligations. The Company shall pay, and shall indemnify the Trustee against, any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against Government Obligations deposited pursuant to this Article or the principal and interest and any other amount received on such Government Obligations.

Section 4.10. Reinstatement. If the Trustee (or Paying Agent) is unable to apply any money or Government Obligations in accordance with Section 4.6 by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company's obligations under this Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated, with present and prospective effect, as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 4.6, until such time as the Trustee (or Paying Agent) is permitted to apply all such money or Government Obligations in accordance with Section 4.6; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment to the Trustee (or Paying Agent) of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Trustee (or Paying Agent) shall promptly pay any such amount to the Holders of the Securities and the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money and Government Obligations held by the Trustee (or Paying Agent).

55

ARTICLE 5

Defaults and Remedies

Section 5.1. Events of Default. An "Event of Default" occurs with respect to the Securities of any series if (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(1) the Company defaults in the payment of interest on any Security of that series or any interest coupon appertaining thereto or any additional amount payable with respect to any Security of that series as specified pursuant to Section 3.1(b)(16) when the same becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days;

(2) the Company defaults in the payment of any installment of the principal of or any premium on any Security of that series when the same becomes due and payable at its Maturity;

(3) the Company fails to comply with any of its agreements or covenants in, or any of the provisions of, this Indenture with respect to any Security of that series (other than an agreement, covenant or provision for which non-compliance is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with), and such non- compliance continues for a period of 90 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the series, a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder;

(4) the Company defaults under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any Debt (including this Indenture) having an aggregate principal amount outstanding of at least $25,000,000, whether such Debt now exists or shall hereafter be created, and, as a result of such default, such Debt shall become due and payable, whether by acceleration

56

or otherwise, and such acceleration shall not be rescinded, annulled or cured within a period of 30 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice specifying such default and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder (it being understood however, that the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of such default under such agreement or instrument unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Company, from any Holder, from the holder of any such Debt or from the trustee under any such agreement or other instrument); provided, however, that if such default under such mortgage, indenture or instrument is remedied or cured by the Company or waived by the holders of such Debt, then the Event of Default hereunder by reason thereof shall be deemed likewise to have been thereupon remedied, cured or waived without further action upon the part of either the Trustee or any of such Holders;

(5) the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (A) commences a voluntary case, (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, (C) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (E) admits in writing its inability generally to pay its debts as they become due or (F) takes any corporate action in furtherance of such action;

(6) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that (A) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case, (B) appoints a Custodian of the Company or for all or substantially all of its property, or (C) orders the liquidation of the Company, and such order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days; or

(7) there occurs any other Event of Default provided as contemplated by Section 3.1 with respect to Securities of that series.

The term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11, United States Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended, or any similar United States federal or state law relating to bankruptcy,

57

insolvency, receivership, winding up, liquidation, reorganization or relief of debtors or any amendment to, successor to or change in any such law. The term "Custodian" means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian, sequestrator or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 5.2. Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of
Section 5.1) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of all of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice received by the Company (and, if given by the Holders, received by the Trustee), may declare the principal (or, if the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of and accrued interest, if any, on all the Securities of that series to be due and payable and upon any such declaration such principal (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such specified amount) and interest, if any, shall be immediately due and payable, provided that the payment of principal and interest on such Securities shall remain subordinated to the extent provided in Article 15. If an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of Section 5.1 with respect to the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then the principal (or, if the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of and accrued interest, if any, on all the Securities of that series shall ipso facto be immediately due and payable without any declaration or act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of such Securities, provided that the payment of principal and interest on such Securities shall remain subordinated to the extent provided in Article 15.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if all existing Defaults and Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the principal of

58

Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.7. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 5.3. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. The Company covenants that if

(1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security or interest coupon, if any, when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or

(2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof,

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities or interest coupons, if any, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal, premium, if any, and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities or interest coupons, if any, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including all amounts due the Trustee, its agents and counsel under Section 6.7.

If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated.

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights,

59

whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to secure any other proper remedy, subject, however, to Section 5.8. No recovery of any such judgment upon any property of the Company or of any other obligor upon the Securities shall affect or impair any rights, powers or remedies of the Trustee or the Holders in respect of any sums remaining due and unpaid hereunder after such recovery.

Section 5.4. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of any judicial proceeding relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), its property or its creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.7.

No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Security or interest coupon any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder of a Security or interest coupon thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of a Security or interest coupon in any such proceeding; provided, however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors' or other similar committee.

Section 5.5. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto.

Section 5.6. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon an

60

Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in any such Event of Default.

Section 5.7. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities of any series by written notice to the Trustee may waive on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series and any interest coupons appertaining thereto a past Default or Event of Default with respect to that series and its consequences except (i) a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security of such series or any interest coupon appertaining thereto or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which pursuant to Article 8 cannot be amended or modified without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 5.8. Control by Majority. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of each series affected (with each such series voting as a class) shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it with respect to Securities of that series; provided, however, that (i) the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with any governmental rule or law or this Indenture, (ii) the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that is unduly prejudicial to the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series not consenting, or that would in the good faith judgment of the Trustee have a substantial likelihood of involving the Trustee in personal liability without adequate indemnity having been offered therefor and (iii) subject to Section 6.1, the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

Section 5.9. Limitation on Suits by Holders. No Holder of any Security of any series or any interest coupons appertaining thereto shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this

61

Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(1) the Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series;

(2) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series have made a written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

(3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense to be, or which may be, incurred by the Trustee in pursuing the remedy;

(4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and the offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceedings; and

(5) during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series have not given to the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such written request.

No one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.

Section 5.10. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, but subject to Section 9.2, the right of any Holder of a Security or interest coupon to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and, subject to Sections 3.5 and 3.7, interest on the Security, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Security (or, in case of redemption, on the Redemption Dates), the right of any Holder of an interest coupon to receive payment of interest due as provided in such interest coupon, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, and the right, if any, to convert or

62

exchange such Security in accordance with Article 14, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

Section 5.11. Application of Money Collected. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article, it shall pay out the money in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal, premium, if any, or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and interest coupons, if any, and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

First: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 6.7;

Second: to Holders of Securities and interest coupons in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected for amounts due and unpaid on such Securities for principal of, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

Third: the balance, if any, to the Company.

The Holders of each series of Securities denominated in ECU, any other currency unit or a Foreign Currency and any matured interest coupons relating thereto shall be entitled to receive a ratable portion of the amount determined by the Trustee by converting the principal amount Outstanding of such series of Securities and matured but unpaid interest on such series of Securities in the currency in which such series of Securities is denominated into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate as of the date of declaration of acceleration of Maturity of the Securities.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 5.11. At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder and the Company a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid.

Section 5.12. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any

63

reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 5.13. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.6, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 5.14. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided, however, that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company.

Section 5.15. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury or other law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal, of, and premium, if any, or interest on the Securities contemplated herein or in the Securities or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any

64

power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

(b) In case a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and shall use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

Section 6.2. Rights of Trustee. Subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act:

(f) The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity deemed satisfactory by the Trustee against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Section 6.3. Trustee May Hold Securities. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Registrar or any other agent of the Company or the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and interest coupons and, subject to Sections 310(b) and 311 of the Trust Indenture Act, may otherwise deal with the Company, an Affiliate or Subsidiary with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Registrar or such other agent.

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee's certificate of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities or any interest coupon. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the Company's use of the proceeds from the Securities or for monies paid over to the Company pursuant to the Indenture.

66

Section 6.6. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Securities of any series and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall, within 90 days after the Default occurs, transmit by mail, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, notice of all Defaults known to it unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of any series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a Responsible Officer in good faith determines that withholding such notice is in the interests of Holders of Securities of that series.

Section 6.7. Compensation and Indemnity. (a) The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services and its counsel. The Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it and its counsel in connection with the performance of its duties under this Indenture, including those arising in connection with the performance of its duties arising as a result of an Event of Default in Section 5.1, except any such expense as may be attributable to its negligence, recklessness or bad faith. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee's agents and counsel.

(b) The Company shall indemnify the Trustee for, and hold it harmless against, any loss or liability, damage, claim or reasonable expense including taxes (other than taxes based upon or determined or measured by the income of the Trustee) incurred by it without negligence, recklessness or bad faith and arising out of or in connection with its acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder other than those attributable to its negligence, recklessness or bad faith. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

67

(c) The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee through negligence, recklessness or bad faith.

(d) To secure the payment obligations of the Company pursuant to this Section, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Securities of any series on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on particular Securities.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(5) or Section 5.1(6), the expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.

The provisions of this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination of this Indenture.

Section 6.8. Replacement of Trustee. (a) The resignation or removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee's acceptance of appointment as provided in Section 6.9.

(b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.9 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

(c) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may remove the Trustee with respect to that series by so notifying the Trustee and the Company.

(d) If at any time:

(1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a

68

bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

(2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.10 hereunder or Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months; or

(3) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting, is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or a receiver or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any such case, (i) the Company by or pursuant to a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii) subject to
Section 315(e) of the Trust Indenture Act, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

(e) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, with respect to Securities of one or more series, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 6.9. If, within one year after such resignation or removal, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a different successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.9, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the

69

Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.9, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

Section 6.9. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee, without further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of all amounts due it under Section 6.7, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.

(b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and such successor Trustee shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein such successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (i) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, such successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (ii) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (iii) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute

70

such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of all amounts due it under Section 6.7, duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.

(c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be.

(d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under the Trust Indenture Act.

(e) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series in the manner provided for notices to the Holders of Securities in
Section 1.6. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. If the Company fails to give such notice within thirty days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause such notice to be given at the expense of the Company.

Section 6.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. (a) There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be eligible to act as Trustee under Section 310(a)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act, shall be a bank or trust company or corporation organized and doing business and in good

71

standing under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof or the District of Columbia and shall have (together with its direct parent) a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such company or corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of Federal, State, territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such company or corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Article.

(b) If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture and the Company shall take prompt action to have a successor Trustee appointed in the manner provided herein. Nothing herein shall prevent the Trustee from filing with the Commission the application referred to in the second to the last paragraph of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act or any equivalent successor provision.

Section 6.11. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

Section 6.12. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions

72

of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor).

Section 6.13. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original issue, exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, a copy of which instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and, except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to
Section 3.1, shall at all times be a bank or trust company or corporation organized and doing business and in good standing under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authorities. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authen-

73

ticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

An Authenticating Agent for any series of Securities may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee for such series and to the Company. The Trustee for any series of Securities may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee for such series may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give notice of such appointment in the manner set forth in Section 1.6, at the expense of the Company, to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent herein. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation including reimbursement of its reasonable expenses for its services under this Section, subject to Section 6.7.

If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to or in lieu of the Trustee's certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication substantially in the following form:

74

This is one of the Securities of the series described in the within-mentioned Indenture.

ARTICLE 7

Consolidation, Merger or Sale by the Company

Section 7.1. Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets Permitted. The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into, or sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of its properties and assets as, or substantially as, an entirety to, any Person unless:

(1) (A) the Company will be the surviving entity or (B) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company), or to which such sale, transfer, lease or other disposition shall have been made, is an entity organized and existing under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia;

(2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company), or to which such sale, transfer, lease or other disposition shall have been made, expressly assumes by supplemental indenture, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Company under the Securities and this Indenture, and the Securities and this Indenture will remain in full force and effect as so supplemented; and

(3) immediately after giving effect to such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, lease or other disposition, no Default or Event of Default exists.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee prior to the proposed consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, lease or other disposition an Officers' Certificate to the foregoing

75

effect and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the proposed consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, lease or other disposition and such supplemental indenture comply with this Indenture and that all conditions precedent to the consummation of such transaction under this Section 7.1 have been met.

Upon any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other Person or any sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of properties and assets of the Company as, or substantially as, an entirety in accordance with this Section 7.1, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such sale, transfer, lease or other disposition is made shall succeed to and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company hereunder and under the Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named hereunder and thereunder and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the predecessor Person shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities.

ARTICLE 8

(5) to change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture in respect of one or more series of Securities, provided that any such change or elimination shall become effective only when there is no Security Outstanding of any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture which is entitled to the benefit of such provision; or

(9) if allowed without penalty under applicable laws and regulations, to permit payment in the United States (including any of the States thereof and the District of Columbia), its territories, its possessions and other areas subject to its jurisdiction of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on Bearer Securities or interest coupons, if any; or

(10) to correct or supplement any provision herein which may be inconsistent with any other provision herein or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture, provided such action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders of Securities of any series; or

77

(11) to make provision not adverse to the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series with respect to any conversion or exchange rights of Holders pursuant to the requirements of Article 14, including providing for the conversion or exchange of the Securities into any Equity Securities or property of the Company; or

Section 8.2. Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Holders. With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series adversely affected by such supplemental indenture (voting as one class), by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company, the Company and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto to add any provisions to or to change in any manner or eliminate any provisions of this Indenture or of any other indenture supplemental hereto or to modify in any manner the rights of the Holders of such Securities; provided, however, that without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby, an amendment under this Section may not:

A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series.

79

It is not necessary under this Section 8.2 for the Holders to consent to the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it is sufficient if they consent to the substance thereof.

Section 8.3. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment to this Indenture or the Securities of one or more series shall be set forth in a supplemental indenture that complies with the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.

Section 8.4. Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 8.5. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder and of any interest coupon appertaining thereto shall be bound thereby.

Securities, including any interest coupons, of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities including any interest coupons of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities including any interest coupons of such series.

80

Section 8.7. Notice of Supplemental Indentures. Promptly after the execution by the Company and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.2, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holders of each Outstanding Security affected, in the manner provided for in Section 1.6, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Company to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

ARTICLE 9

Covenants

Section 9.1. Payment of Principal, Premium, if any, and Interest. The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of each series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, together with additional amounts, if any, on the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of the Securities of such series, any interest coupons appertaining thereto and this Indenture; provided, however, that amounts properly withheld under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, by any Person from a payment to any Holder of Securities, after having requested such Holder to provide applicable information that would allow such Person to make such payment without withholding, shall be considered as having been paid by the Company to such Holder for purposes of this Indenture. An installment of principal, premium, if any, or interest shall be considered paid on the date it is due if there shall have been sent to the Trustee or Paying Agent by wire transfer (provided, that the Funds sent by such wire transfer shall have been received by the Trustee by no later than 5:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following such date), or if the Trustee or Paying Agent otherwise holds, on such date money designated for and sufficient to pay the installment.

Section 9.2. Maintenance of Office or Agency. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, if Securities of a series are issued as Registered Securities, the Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, if Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer Securities,

81

the Company will maintain, (i) subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto, an office or agency in a Place of Payment for that series which is located outside the United States where Securities of that series and related interest coupons may be presented and surrendered for payment; provided, however, that if the Securities of that series are listed on The International Stock Exchange of the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland Limited, the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange located outside the United States and such stock exchange shall so require, the Company will maintain a Paying Agent for the Securities of that series in London, Luxembourg or any other required city located outside the United States, as the case may be, so long as the Securities of that series are listed on such exchange, and
(ii) subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto, an office or agency in a Place of Payment for that series which is located outside the United States, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of any such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, no payment of principal, premium or interest on Bearer Securities shall be made at any office or agency of the Company in the United States, by check mailed to any address in the United States, by transfer to an account located in the United States or upon presentation or surrender in the United States of a Bearer Security or interest coupon for payment, even if the payment would be credited to an account located outside the United States; provided, however, that, if the Securities of a series are denominated and payable in Dollars, payment of principal of and any premium or interest on any such Bearer Security shall be made at the office of the Company's Paying Agent in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, if (but only if) payment in Dollars of the full amount of such principal, premium or interest, as the case may be, at all offices or agencies outside the United States maintained for the purpose by the Company in accordance with this Indenture is

82

illegal or effectively precluded by exchange controls or other similar restrictions.

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, the Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities (including any interest coupons, if any) of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities (including any interest coupons, if any) of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, the Trustee shall initially serve as Paying Agent.

Section 9.3. Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust; Unclaimed Money. If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal, premium, if any, or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of its action or failure so to act.

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities and any interest coupons appertaining thereto, it will, prior to each due date of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held as provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

The Company will cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:

83

(1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on Securities of that series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

(2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities of that series; and

(3) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the terms set forth in this Indenture; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of any principal of or premium or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security and interest coupon, if any, shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may in the name and at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper in each Place of Payment with respect to such series, or cause to be mailed to such Holder, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from

84

the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

Section 9.4. Corporate Existence. Subject to Article 7, the Company will at all times do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and its rights and franchises; provided that nothing in this Section 9.4 shall prevent the abandonment or termination of any right or franchise of the Company if it shall be determined that such abandonment or termination is desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company.

Section 9.5. Limitations on Liens. The Company will not, nor will it permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, issue, assume or guarantee any debt for money borrowed (excluding trade accounts payable or accrued liabilities arising in the normal course of business) (herein referred to as "Indebtedness") if such Indebtedness is secured by any mortgage, security interest, pledge, lien or other encumbrance (herein referred to as a "Lien" or "Liens") upon any Principal Property of the Company or of a Restricted Subsidiary or on any shares of stock of any Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Principal Property or shares of stock are owned at the date of this Indenture or thereafter acquired, without in any such case effectively providing that the Securities of any outstanding series that are entitled to the benefits of such provision of this Indenture (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other indebtedness of or guaranteed by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary entitled thereto, subject to applicable priority of payment) shall be secured equally and ratably with, or prior to, such Indebtedness so long as such Indebtedness shall be so secured; provided, however, that the foregoing restriction does not apply to any of the following:

(a) Liens on any property or assets acquired, constructed or improved by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary which are created or assumed prior to, contemporaneously with, or within one year after the later of such acquisition, completion of such construction or improvement or commencement of operation of such property or assets to secure or provide for the payment of all or any part of the purchase price of such property or assets or the cost of such construction or improvement;

85

(b) Liens on any property or assets existing thereon at the time of the acquisition thereof by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary;

(c) Liens on any property, assets or stock of any Person existing at the time such Person is merged with or into or consolidated with the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or at the time of a purchase, lease or other acquisition of the properties, assets or stock of such Person;

(d) Liens on property, assets or securities of a Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary;

(e) Liens to secure Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary to the Company or to another Restricted Subsidiary;

(f) Liens in favor of the United States or any State thereof, or any department, agency or instrumentality or political subdivision of the United States or any State thereof, to secure partial progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or statute or to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or the cost of constructing or improving the property or assets subject to such Liens;

(g) any Lien upon any property or assets in accordance with customary banking practice to secure any Indebtedness incurred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with the exporting of goods to, or between, or the marketing of goods in, or the importing of goods from, foreign countries;

(h) any Lien in existence on the date of this Indenture or created pursuant to an "after-acquired property" clause or similar term in existence on the date of this Indenture or any mortgage, pledge agreement, security agreement or other similar instrument in existence on the date of this Indenture; and

(i) any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements), in whole or in part, of any Lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) to (h), inclusive; provided, however, that the principal amount of Indebtedness secured thereby shall not exceed the greater of the principal

86

amount of Indebtedness so secured at the time of such extension, renewal or replacement and the original principal amount of the Indebtedness so secured (plus, in each case, the aggregate amount of premiums, other payments, costs and expenses required to be paid or incurred in connection with such extension, renewal or replacement); provided, further, however, that such extension, renewal or replacement shall be limited to all or a part of the property
(including improvements, alterations and repairs on such property)
subject to the encumbrance so extended, renewed or replaced (plus improvements, alterations or repairs on such property).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, such restriction does not apply to the issuance, assumption or guarantee by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness secured by a Lien which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions up to an aggregate principal amount which, together with all other Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries secured by Liens which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions (other than Liens permitted under the foregoing exceptions) and the net sale proceeds from Sale and Leaseback Transactions (as defined in Section 9.6) in existence at such time (other than any Sale and Leaseback Transaction permitted by clauses (i) through (v), inclusive, of Section 9.6), does not at the time exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

Section 9.6. Restrictions on Sale and Leaseback Transactions. The Indenture will provide that the Company will not, nor will it permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement with any Person providing for the leasing to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Principal Property which Principal Property has been or is to be sold or transferred by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to such Person (herein referred to as a "Sale and Leaseback Transaction") unless (i) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled to incur Indebtedness secured by a Lien on the Principal Property to be leased as permitted by clauses (a) through
(i), inclusive, of Section 9.5, in an amount equal to or exceeding the net sale proceeds from such Sale and Leaseback Transaction without equally and ratably securing the Securities; (ii) the lease is for a term, including any renewal thereof, of not more than three years; (iii) the lease is between the Company and a Restricted Subsidiary or between Restricted Subsidiaries; (iv) such Sale and Leaseback Transaction occurs within one year from the date of acquisition of the Principal Property subject thereto or the date of completion

87

of construction or commencement of operations, whichever is later; or (v) the Company shall, and in any such case the Company covenants that it will, within 180 days of the effective date of any such arrangement, apply an amount equal to the net sale proceeds from Sale and Leaseback Transactions to (x) repayment, redemption or retirement of Funded Debt of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or (y) investment in another Principal Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, and may permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, effect any Sale and Leaseback Transaction, provided that the net sale proceeds from such Sale and Leaseback Transaction, together with the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Indebtedness (other than the Securities) secured by Liens upon Principal Properties not excepted by any of clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of Section 9.5, do not exceed 15% of the Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

Section 9.7. Annual Review Certificate. The Company covenants and agrees to deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, a certificate from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company stating that a review of the activities of the Company during such year and of performance under this Indenture has been made under his or her supervision and to the best of his or her knowledge, based on such review, the Company has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Indenture throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to him or her and the nature and status thereof. For purposes of this Section 9.7, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided under this Indenture.

ARTICLE 11

Redemption

Section 11.1. Applicability of Article. Securities (including interest coupons, if any) of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article.

Section 11.2. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the Company to redeem any Securities, including interest coupons, if any, that, at the time of such election, may be redeemed at the option of the Company, shall be evidenced by or pursuant to a Board Resolution. In the case of any such redemption at the election of the Company of less than all the Securities or interest coupons, if any, of any series, the Company shall, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date, of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor of the Securities to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities (i) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture or (ii) pursuant to an election of the Company which is subject to a condition specified in the terms of such Securities, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction or condition.

Section 11.3. Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, if less than all the Securities (including interest coupons, if any) of a series with the same terms are to be redeemed, the Trustee, not more than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date, shall select the Securities of the series to be redeemed in such manner as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate. The Trustee shall make the selection from Securities of the series that are Outstanding and that have not previously been called for redemption and may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities, including interest coupons, if any, of that series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities, including interest coupons, if any, of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum

91

authorized denomination for Securities of that series. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected by the Trustee for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. If the Company shall so direct, Securities registered in the name of the Company, any Affiliate or any Subsidiary thereof shall not be included in the Securities selected for redemption.

For purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities (including interest coupons, if any) shall relate, in the case of any Securities (including interest coupons, if any) redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities (including interest coupons, if any) which has been or is to be redeemed.

Section 11.4. Notice of Redemption. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 1.6 not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date to the Holders of the Securities to be redeemed.

All notices of redemption shall state:

(1) the Redemption Date;

(2) the Redemption Price;

(3) if less than all the Outstanding Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Security or Securities to be redeemed;

(4) the Place or Places of Payment where such Securities, together in the case of Bearer Securities with all interest coupons appertaining thereto, if any, maturing after the Redemption Date, are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price;

(5) that Securities of the series called for redemption and all unmatured interest coupons, if any, appertaining thereto must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price;

92

(6) that, on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date;

(7) that the redemption is from a sinking fund, if such is the case;

(8) that, unless otherwise specified in such notice, Bearer Securities of any series, if any, surrendered for redemption must be accompanied by all interest coupons maturing subsequent to the Redemption Date or the amount of any such missing interest coupon or interest coupons will be deducted from the Redemption Price, unless security or indemnity satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and any Paying Agent is furnished;

(9) the CUSIP number, if any, of the Securities;

(10) if applicable, the conversion or exchange price, the date on which the right to convert or exchange the Securities (or portions thereof to be redeemed) will terminate and the place or places where such Securities may be surrendered for conversion or exchange; and

(11) the procedures that a Holder must follow to surrender the Securities so to be redeemed.

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company.

Section 11.5. Deposit of Redemption Price. On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 9.3) an amount of money in the currency or currencies (including currency unit or units) in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.1 for the Securities of such series) sufficient to pay on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price of, and (unless the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) interest accrued to the Redemption Date on, all Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date.

93

Unless any Security by its terms prohibits any redemption obligation from being satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities (including Securities redeemed otherwise than through a sinking fund), the Company may deliver such Securities to the Trustee for crediting of an amount equal to the then applicable Redemption Price for such Securities against such payment obligation in accordance with the terms of such Securities and this Indenture.

Section 11.6. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest and the interest coupons for any such interest appertaining to any Bearer Security so to be redeemed, except to the extent provided below, shall be void. Except as provided in the next succeeding paragraph, upon surrender of any such Security, including interest coupons, if any, for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on Bearer Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States and its possessions (except as otherwise provided in Section 9.2) and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, only upon presentation and surrender of interest coupons for such interest; and provided, further, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, installments of interest on Registered Securities that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates that are on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.7.

If any Bearer Security surrendered for redemption shall not be accompanied by all appurtenant interest coupons maturing after the Redemption Date, such Bearer Security may be paid after deducting from the Redemption Price an amount equal to the face amount of all such missing interest coupons, or the surrender of such missing interest coupon or interest coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee if there be furnished to them such security or

94

indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Bearer Security shall surrender to the Trustee or any Paying Agent any such missing interest coupon in respect of which a deduction shall have been made from the Redemption Price, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount so deducted; provided, however, that interest represented by interest coupons shall be payable only at an office or agency located outside of the United States (except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 9.2) and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 3.1, only upon presentation and surrender of those interest coupons.

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security.

Section 11.7. Securities Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part at any Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so required, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing), the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of that Security, without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, having the same form, terms and Stated Maturity, in any authorized denomination equal in aggregate principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Security surrendered.

ARTICLE 12

Sinking Funds

Section 12.1. Applicability of Article. The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for Securities of such series.

The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a "mandatory sinking fund payment," and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided

95

If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.2. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series.

Section 12.2. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. The Company (i) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) together, in the case of Bearer Securities of such series, with all unmatured interest coupons appertaining thereto and (ii) may apply as a credit Securities of a series which have been (x) redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, (y) converted or exchanged pursuant to Article 14 or (z) previously delivered to the Trustee and cancelled without reissuance pursuant to Section 3.9, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such series; provided that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

Section 12.3. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to
Section 12.2 and stating the basis for such credit and that such Securities have not been previously so credited, and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.3 and cause notice of the

96

redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.4. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.6 and 11.7.

97

and may call such meeting for such purposes by giving notice thereof as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

Section 13.3. Persons Entitled to Vote at Meetings. To be entitled to vote at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series issuable as Bearer Securities, a Person shall be (a) a Holder of one or more Outstanding Securities of such series, or (b) a Person appointed by an instrument in writing as proxy for a Holder or Holders of one or more Outstanding Securities of such series by such Holder or Holders. The only Persons who shall be entitled to be present or to speak at any meeting of Holders shall be the Persons entitled to vote at such meeting and their counsel, any representatives of the Trustee and its counsel and any representatives of the Company and its counsel.

Section 13.4. Quorum; Action. The Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the applicable series shall constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum within 30 minutes of the time appointed for any such meeting, the meeting shall, if convened at the request of Holders of Securities of such series, be dissolved. In any other case the meeting may be adjourned for a period of not less than 10 days as determined by the chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such meeting. In the absence of a quorum at any such adjourned meeting, such adjourned meeting may be further adjourned for a period not less than 10 days as determined by the chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such adjourned meeting.

At the reconvening of any meeting adjourned for a lack of a quorum pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Persons entitled to vote 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the applicable series at the time shall constitute a quorum for the taking of any action set forth in the notice of the original meeting. Notice of the reconvening of a meeting adjourned for lack of a quorum shall state expressly the percentage of the principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series which shall constitute a quorum.

At a meeting or an adjourned meeting duly reconvened and at which a quorum is present as aforesaid, any resolution and all matters (except as limited by the proviso

In the event that any meeting shall be adjourned for lack of a quorum or that, at any meeting at which a quorum is present, any proposed resolution or decision shall not be passed or taken because the Holders of the percentage of Outstanding Securities of any series issuable as Bearer Securities needed to approve such resolution or decision did not vote in favor of such resolution or decision, the principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series represented at such meeting and voting in favor of such resolution or decision may be counted for purposes of calculating whether the consent of the Holders of the percentage of Outstanding Securities of such series needed in order to make, give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other action has been obtained, and such vote shall constitute the consent thereto of such Holders.

Section 13.5. Determination of Voting Rights; Conduct and Adjournment of Meetings. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series issuable as

ARTICLE 14

Conversion or Exchange of Securities

Section 14.1. Applicability of Article. (a) The provisions of this Article 14 shall be applicable to the Securities of any series which are convertible or exchangeable into Equity Securities of the Company, and to the issuance of such Equity Securities upon the conversion or exchange of such Securities, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 3.1 for the Securities of such series.

(b) For purposes of this Article 14, the term "Equity Securities" shall mean all or any of the following, authorized from time to time: (i) the Company's Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "Common Stock"), (ii) the Company's Preferred Stock, no par value per share (the

101

"Preferred Stock"), and (iii) any other equity securities of the Company.

Section 14.2. Exercise of Conversion or Exchange Privilege.
(a) In order to exercise a conversion or exchange privilege, the Holder of a Security of a series with such privilege shall surrender such Security, together, in the case of any Bearer Security, with all unmatured interest coupons and any matured interest coupons in default appertaining thereto, to the Company at the office or agency maintained for that purpose pursuant to
Section 9.2, accompanied by written notice to the Company that the Holder elects to convert or exchange such Security or a specified portion thereof. Such notice shall also state, if different from the name and address of such Holder, the name or names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for Equity Securities which shall be issuable on such conversion or exchange shall be issued. Registered Securities surrendered for conversion or exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed by or accompanied by instruments of transfer in forms satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by the registered Holder or its attorney duly authorized in writing.

(b) Registered Securities so surrendered for conversion or exchange during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date to the opening of business on the corresponding Interest Payment Date (excluding Securities or portions thereof called for redemption during such period) shall also be accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company of an amount equal to the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date on the principal amount of such Security then being converted or exchanged, and such interest shall be payable to such registered Holder on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion or exchange of such Security, subject to the provisions of Section 3.7 relating to the payment of Defaulted Interest by the Company.

(c) As promptly as practicable after the receipt of such notice and of any payment required pursuant to a Board Resolution and, subject to Section 3.3, set forth, or determined in the manner provided, in an Officers' Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto setting forth the terms of such series of Security, and the surrender of such Security in accordance with such reasonable regulations as the Company may prescribe, the Company shall issue and shall deliver, at the office or agency at which such Security is surrendered, to such Holder

102

or on its written order, a certificate or certificates for the number of Equity Securities issuable upon the conversion or exchange of such Security (or specified portion thereof), in accordance with the provisions of such Board Resolution, Officers' Certificate or supplemental indenture, and cash as provided therein in respect of any fractional share of such Equity Security otherwise issuable upon such conversion or exchange.

(d) Such conversion or exchange shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which such notice and such payment, if required, shall have been received in proper order for conversion or exchange by the Company and such Security shall have been surrendered as aforesaid and at such time the rights of the Holder of such Security as such Security Holder shall cease and the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for Equity Securities of the Company shall be issuable upon such conversion or exchange shall be deemed to have become the Holder or Holders of record of the Equity Securities represented thereby. Except as set forth above and subject to paragraph (d) of
Section 3.7, no payment or adjustment shall be made upon any conversion or exchange on account of any interest accrued on the Securities surrendered for conversion or exchange, or on account of any dividends on the Equity Securities of the Company issued upon such conversion or exchange if the record date for the payment of such dividends occurs prior to or on the date on which such conversion or exchange shall be deemed to have been effected.

In the case of any Security which is converted or exchanged in part only, upon such conversion or exchange the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or on the order of the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted or unexchanged portion of such Security.

Section 14.3. No Fractional Equity Securities. No fractional Equity Security of the Company shall be issued upon conversions or exchanges of Securities of any series. If more than one Security shall be surrendered for conversion or exchange at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares of the Equity Security which shall be issuable upon conversion or exchange shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted

103

hereby) so surrendered. If, except for the provisions of this Section 14.3, any Holder of a Security or Securities would be entitled to a fractional share of any Equity Security of the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such Security or Securities, or specified portions thereof, the Company shall pay to such Holder an amount in cash equal to the current market value of such fractional share computed, (i) if such Equity Security is listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on a national securities exchange, on the basis of the last reported sale price regular way on the principal exchange where such Equity Security is listed or admitted, on the last trading day prior to the date of conversion or exchange upon which such a sale shall have been effected,
(ii) if such Equity Security is not at the time so listed or admitted on a national securities exchange but is quoted on the National Market System of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASDAQ"), on the basis of the average of the bid and asked prices of such Equity Security on NASDAQ on the last trading day prior to the date of conversion or exchange, (iii) if such Equity Security is not at the time so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on a national securities exchange or quoted on NASDAQ, on the basis of the average of the bid and asked prices of such Equity Security in the over-the- counter market, on the last trading day prior to the date of conversion or exchange, as reported by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated or similar organization if the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated is no longer reporting such information, or (iv) in accordance with the terms of the supplemental indenture or Board Resolutions setting the terms of the Securities of such series. For purposes of this Section, "trading day" shall mean each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday other than any day on which the applicable Equity Security is not traded or quoted on a national securities exchange, or if the applicable Equity Security is not traded or quoted on a national securities exchange, on NASDAQ or the principal exchange or market on which the applicable Equity Security is traded or quoted.

Section 14.4. Adjustment of Conversion or Exchange Price; Consolidation or Merger. The conversion or exchange price of Securities of any series that is convertible or exchangeable into an Equity Security of the Company shall be adjusted for any stock dividends, stock splits, reclassification, combinations or similar transactions, and the securities, assets or other property into or for which such Securities may be converted or exchanged as a result of any consolidation, merger, combination or

104

similar transaction shall be determined, in accordance with the terms of the supplemental indenture or Board Resolutions setting the terms of the Securities of such series.

Whenever the conversion or exchange price is adjusted, the Company shall compute the adjusted conversion or exchange price in accordance with the terms of the applicable Board Resolution or supplemental indenture and shall prepare an Officers' Certificate setting forth the adjusted conversion or exchange price and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Whenever the securities, assets or other property into or for which Securities of any series may be converted or exchanged are changed as a result of any consolidation, merger or similar transaction, the Company shall determine the nature and amount of such securities, assets or other property in accordance with the terms of the applicable Board Resolution or supplemental indenture and shall prepare an Officer's Certificate describing such securities, assets or other property and stating the amount of such securities, assets or other property into or for which such Securities have become convertible or exchangeable. Such certificates shall forthwith be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion or exchange of Securities pursuant to Section 9.2 and, if different, with the Trustee. The Company shall forthwith cause a notice setting forth the adjusted conversion or exchange price or describing such securities, assets or other property, as applicable, to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Registered Securities of such series at its address appearing on the Register and to any conversion or exchange agent other than the Trustee.

Section 14.5. Notice of Certain Corporate Actions. If any series of Securities which are directly or indirectly convertible or exchangeable for any Equity Securities are Outstanding, in case:

(a) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on any class of such Equity Securities payable otherwise than in cash out of its retained earnings (other than a dividend for which approval of any stockholder of the Company is required); or

(b) the Company shall authorize the granting to the holders of any class of such Equity Securities of rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of

105

any other rights (other than any such grant for which approval of any stockholder of the Company is required); or

(c) of any reclassification of any class of such Equity Securities (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding Equity Securities, or of any consolidation, merger or share exchange to which the Company is a party and for which approval of any stockholder of the Company is required), or of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

(d) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;

then the Company shall cause to be filed with the Trustee, and shall cause to be mailed to all Holders at their addresses as they shall appear in the Register, at least 15 days (or 10 days in any case specified in clause (a) or
(b) above) prior to the applicable record date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, rights, options or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the Holders of such Equity Securities of record to be entitled to such dividend, distribution, rights, options or warrants are to be determined, or (ii) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, share exchange, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of such Equity Securities of record shall be entitled to exchange such Equity Securities for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, share exchange, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. If at any time the Trustee shall not be the conversion or exchange agent, a copy of such notice shall also forthwith be filed by the Company with the Trustee.

Section 14.6. Reservation of Equity Securities. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Equity Securities, for the purpose of effecting the conversion or exchange of Securities, the full number of Equity Securities of the Company then issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all Outstanding Securities of any series that has conversion or exchange rights.

106

Section 14.7. Payment of Certain Taxes Upon Conversion or Exchange. The Company will pay any and all taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of its Equity Securities on conversion or exchange of Securities pursuant hereto. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of its Equity Securities in a name other than that of the Holder of the Security or Securities to be converted or exchanged, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issue has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid.

Section 14.8. Duties of Trustee Regarding Conversion or Exchange. Neither the Trustee nor any conversion or exchange agent shall at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Securities of any series that is convertible or exchangeable into Equity Securities of the Company to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the conversion or exchange price, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, whether herein or in any supplemental indenture, any resolutions of the Board of Directors or written instrument executed by one or more officers of the Company provided to be employed in making the same. Neither the Trustee nor any conversion or exchange agent shall be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Equity Securities of the Company, or of any securities or property, which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion or exchange of any Securities and neither the Trustee nor any conversion or exchange agent makes any representation with respect thereto. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, neither the Trustee nor any conversion or exchange agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any of its Equity Securities or stock certificates or other securities or property upon the surrender of any Security for the purpose of conversion or exchange or to comply with any of the covenants of the Company contained in this Article 14 or in the applicable supplemental indenture, resolutions of the Board of Directors or written instrument executed by one or more duly authorized officers of the Company.

Section 14.9. Repayment of Certain Funds Upon Conversion or Exchange. Any funds which at any time have been deposited by the Company or on its behalf with the Trustee or any Paying Agent for the purpose of paying the

107

principal of, and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on any of the Securities (including funds deposited for any sinking fund referred to in Article 12 hereof) and which shall not be required for such purposes because of the conversion or exchange of such Securities as provided in this Article 14 shall after such conversion or exchange be repaid to the Company by the Trustee upon the Company's written request by Company Request.

ARTICLE 15

Subordination

Section 15.1. Agreement to Subordinate. The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Security by accepting a Security covenants and agrees, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 3.1, the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities is expressly subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Article, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt, and that these subordination provisions are for the benefit of the holders of Senior Debt.

Each Holder of a Security authorizes and directs the Trustee on its behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate, in the sole discretion of the Trustee, to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination between the Holders of Securities and the holders of the Senior Debt as provided in this Article 15 and appoints the Trustee its attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

Section 15.2. Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy. Upon any distribution or payment to creditors of the Company in a voluntary or involuntary liquidation or dissolution of the Company or in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property:

(1) holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled to receive payment in full of the principal of and interest (including interest as provided for in the agreement governing such Senior Debt which accrues after the commencement of any such proceeding, whether or not allowed as a claim in any such proceeding) on, and other amounts then payable on, the Senior Debt, or such payment shall have been duly provided for, before Holders of Securities of any series shall be entitled

108

to receive any payment (other than in the form of Permitted Junior Securities (as defined below)) of principal of or interest on, or other amounts on or in respect of, the Securities of such series; and

(2) until the Senior Debt is paid in full, or such payment has been duly provided for, any payment or distribution to which Holders of Securities would be entitled but for this Article shall be made to holders of Senior Debt, as their interests may appear; provided, however, that, in the event that any payment of principal of or interest on the Securities is ordered or decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction in a reorganization proceeding under any applicable law, which order or decree gives effect to the provisions herein set forth for the subordination of the Securities to Senior Debt, the Trustee shall be authorized to make such payment of principal of or interest on the Securities, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the order or decree.

Upon any distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article, the Trustee and the Holders of Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which such proceedings are pending for the purpose of ascertaining the identity of Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt, the amount thereof or payable thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article, and the Trustee and the Holders of Securities shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities for the purpose of ascertaining the identity of Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article; provided, however, that the foregoing shall apply only if such court, trustee, liquidating trustee or other Person has been fully apprised of the provisions of this Article 15. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person, as a holder of Senior Debt, to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Section 15.2, the Trustee may request such Person (at the expense of the Holders of Securities) to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee, acting in good faith, as to the amount of such Senior Debt held by such Person, as to the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in

109

such payment or distribution, and as to other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Section, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive payment.

For purposes of this Article 15, a distribution may consist of cash, securities or other property, by setoff or otherwise, provided that, for purposes of this Article 15 only, the words "cash, securities or other property" shall not be deemed to include Permitted Junior Securities. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another Person or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the sale, transfer or lease of its properties and assets as or substantially as an entirety to another Person upon the terms and conditions set forth in Article 7 shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshalling of assets and liabilities of the Company for the purposes of this Section if the entity formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the Person which acquires by sale, transfer or lease such properties and assets as or substantially as an entirety, as the case may be, shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or lease, comply with the conditions set forth in Article 7.

Section 15.3. Default on Senior Debt. (a) Upon (i) the maturity of any Senior Debt by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise and
(ii) receipt by the Trustee of written notice of such maturity, all principal thereof and interest thereon and other amounts then due in connection therewith shall first be paid in full, or such payment shall have been duly provided for, before any payment (other than in the form of Permitted Junior Securities) is made by the Company or any Person acting on behalf of the Company: (i) on account of the principal of or interest on, or other amounts on or in respect of, the Securities; (ii) to acquire any of the Securities for cash or property; or (iii) on account of the redemption provisions of the Securities.

110

(b) No payment of the type referred to in clause (i),
(ii) or (iii) of Section 15.3(a) in respect of the Securities shall be made if
(i) at the time of such payment, there exists a default in payment of all or any portion of the principal of or any interest on any Senior Debt (a "Payment Default") and such Payment Default shall not have been cured or waived in writing or the benefits of this sentence waived in writing by or on behalf of the holders of such Senior Debt, and (ii) the Trustee shall have received written notice of such Payment Default. In addition, during the continuance of any event of default (other than a Payment Default) with respect to the Credit Agreement, as such event of default is defined therein, permitting the lenders or their Representative to accelerate the maturity thereof and upon written notice thereof given to the Trustee, with a copy to the Company (the delivery of which shall not affect the validity of the notice to the Trustee), by the Representative of the lenders under the Credit Agreement, then, unless and until such event of default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal of or interest on, or other amounts on or in respect of, the Securities or to acquire any of the Securities or on account of the redemption provisions of the Securities; provided, however, that if the lenders under the Credit Agreement or their Representative have not declared the loans then outstanding under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable within 180 days after the occurrence of such event of default (or have declared such Senior Debt to be immediately due and payable and within such period have rescinded such declaration of acceleration), then the Company shall resume making any and all required payments in respect of the Securities (including any missed payments).

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article 15 or any other provision of this Indenture, only one payment blockage period under the second sentence of this Section 15.3(b) may be commenced within any consecutive 365-day period with respect to the Securities. For all purposes of this Article 15, no event of default which existed or was continuing on the date of the commencement of any 180-day payment blockage period with respect to the Senior Debt under the Credit Agreement shall be, or be made, the basis for the commencement of a second payment blockage period by the Representative of the lenders under the Credit Agreement, whether or not within a period of 365 consecutive days, unless such event of default shall have been cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days

111

(and, in the case of any such waiver, no payment shall have been made by the Company to the lenders under the Credit Agreement in connection with such waiver other than amounts due pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement as in effect at the time of such default).

(c) In the event that notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 15.3, the Company shall make any payment to the Trustee on account of the principal of or interest on, or other amounts on or in respect of, the Securities or to acquire any Securities or on account of their redemption provisions, in violation of this Section 15.3, then, unless and until the holders of the applicable Senior Debt shall have been paid in full, or such payment shall have been duly provided for, as provided in this Section 15.3, or the default, event of default or declaration giving rise to such payment right shall have been cured, waived or rescinded or shall have ceased to exist, such payment by the Company (subject to the provisions of Sections 15.4(b) and
Section 15.10) shall be held by the Trustee, in trust for the benefit of the holders of Senior Debt entitled thereto, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered to such holders, pro rata as to each of such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Debt held by them, or their respective Representatives or the trustee under the indenture or other agreement (if any) pursuant to which Senior Debt may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, for application to the payment of all Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Debt in full in accordance with this Article 15, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution or provision therefor to or for the holders of Senior Debt. Subject to Section 15.4, if a payment is made to Holders of Securities that, because of this Section 15.3, should not have been made to them, the Holders of Securities who receive such payment shall hold it in trust for the holders of Senior Debt entitled thereto and forthwith pay it over to them as their interests may appear.

(d) The Company covenants that it will, upon request of the Trustee, deliver an Officers' Certificate showing in reasonable detail the Senior Debt outstanding as of the date of such Officers' Certificate and the Representative of each class of Senior Debt. The Trustee may conclusively rely thereon except to the extent that it shall have received, from the Representative of any class of Senior Debt, notice in writing controverting any of the statements made therein.

112

Not less than 10 days prior to making any distribution in respect of Senior Debt pursuant to this Section 15.3, the Trustee shall deliver to each Representative of any class of Senior Debt copies of the most recent Officers' Certificate filed with it by the Company pursuant to the foregoing clause.

(e) In the event that the Securities of any series are declared due and payable before their Stated Maturity in accordance with Article 5 hereof, then and in such event the holders of the Senior Debt outstanding at the time Securities of any series so become due and payable shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts then due on or in respect of such Senior Debt (whether or not an event of default has occurred thereunder or such Senior Debt is, or has been declared to be, due and payable prior to the date on which it otherwise would have become due and payable), or such payment shall have been duly provided for, before the Holders of such Securities are entitled to receive payment on account of the Securities.

Section 15.4. Securities May Be Paid Prior to Dissolution, Etc. Nothing contained in this Article 15 or elsewhere in this Indenture, or in any of the Securities, shall prevent (a) the Company, at any time except (i) during the pendency of any insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, receivership, liquidation, reorganization or similar proceedings, (ii) upon the maturity of any Senior Debt, (iii) during the continuance of any Payment Default, (iv) during any 180-day period specified in Section 15.3(b) or (v) in the event that the Securities of any series are declared due and payable before their Stated Maturity, from making payments at any time of principal of or interest on, or other amounts on or in respect of, the Securities or (b) the application by the Trustee or any Paying Agent of any money or securities, deposited with the Trustee or such Paying Agent for the purpose of paying any principal of or interest on the Securities, to the payment of such principal or interest, or the retention of such payment by the Holders of such Securities, if, at the time of such application by the Trustee or such Paying Agent, the 180-day period referred to in Section 15.3(b) shall have lapsed or the Trustee shall not have been notified by the Company, any holder of Senior Debt or any Representative thereof of the occurrence of any event as a result of which such payment would have been prohibited by the provisions of this Article.

113

Section 15.5. Notices by Company. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee and each Paying Agent of any facts known to the Company that would cause a payment of principal of or interest on the Securities to violate this Article 15, but failure to give such notice shall not affect the subordination of the Securities to Senior Debt as provided in this Article 15.

Section 15.6. Subrogation. Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Debt, or the due provision for such payment, Holders of Securities shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company which by its express terms is subordinated to Senior Debt to substantially the same extent as the Securities are subordinated to Senior Debt and is entitled to like rights of subrogation by reason of any payments or distributions made to holders of Senior Debt) to the rights of holders of Senior Debt to receive payments or distributions applicable to Senior Debt, to the extent that payments or distributions otherwise payable to Holders of Securities have been applied to the payment of Senior Debt, until all of the principal of and interest on the Securities shall be paid in full. For purposes of such subrogation, a payment or distribution made under this Article 15 to holders of Senior Debt which otherwise would have been made to Holders of Securities, is not, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of such Senior Debt and the Holders of Securities, payment by the Company on such Senior Debt.

Section 15.7. Relative Rights. This Article defines the relative rights of Holders of Securities and holders of Senior Debt. Nothing in this Indenture shall:

(1) impair, as between the Company and the Holders of Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and interest on the Securities in accordance with their terms;

(2) affect the relative rights of Holders of Securities and creditors of the Company other than holders of Senior Debt; or

(3) prevent the Trustee or any Holder of a Security from exercising its available remedies upon a Default or Event of Default, subject to the rights of holders of Senior Debt to receive distributions otherwise payable to Holders of Securities.

114

If the Company fails because of this Article 15 to pay principal of or interest on a Security on the due date or upon the acceleration thereof, the failure is still a Default or Event of Default.

Section 15.8. Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Company. No right of any holder of Senior Debt to enforce the subordination of the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities shall be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Company or by its failure to comply with this Indenture.

Section 15.9. Distribution or Notice to Representative. Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of Senior Debt, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their respective Representatives.

Section 15.10. Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent. The Trustee and each Paying Agent may continue to make payments on the Securities and shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of facts that would prohibit the making of any such payment unless, not less than two Business Days prior to the date of any such payment, the Trustee receives written notice reasonably satisfactory to it that payments may not be made under this Article
15. Only the Company, a Representative (satisfactorily identified to the Trustee) or a holder of an issue of Senior Debt that has no Representative (satisfactorily identified to the Trustee) may give such notice. Prior to the receipt of such notice, the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist. In any case, the Trustee shall have no responsibility to the holders of Senior Debt for payments made to Holders of Securities by the Company or any Paying Agent unless such payments are made at the direction of the Trustee.

Except to the extent of payments held in trust under Section 15.3(c) hereof, neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Debt. The Trustee shall not be under any duty or obligation to take any action at the request or for the benefit of holders of Senior Debt which, in the Trustee's opinion, shall be likely to involve it in any expense or liability, if there are reasonable grounds for believing that a repayment of such expense or liability is not reasonably assured to it, unless one or more holders of Senior Debt shall, as often as may be required by the

115

Trustee, furnish indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against such expense or liability.

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may hold Senior Debt with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

Section 15.11. Certain Conversions or Exchanges Deemed Payment. For the purposes of this Article only, (a) the issuance and delivery of Permitted Junior Securities upon conversion or exchange of Securities in accordance with Article 14 shall not be deemed to constitute a payment or distribution on account of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on securities or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of Securities, and (b) the payment, issuance or delivery of cash,securities or other property (other than Permitted Junior Securities) upon conversion or exchange of a Security shall be deemed to constitute payment on account of the principal of such security. For the purposes of this Section, the term "Permitted Junior Securities" means (i) shares of any stock of any class of the Company or any successor entity and (ii) other securities of the Company or any successor entity that are subordinated in right of payment to all Senior Debt that may be outstanding at the time of issuance or delivery of such securities to substantially the same extent as, or to a greater extent than, the Securities are so subordinated as provided in this Article. Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall impair, as among the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Debt and the Holders of the Securities, the right, which is absolute and unconditional, of the Holder of any Security to convert or exchange such Security in accordance with Article 14.

MAPCO Inc. Registration Statement on Form S-3

(Registration No. 333-20837)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to MAPCO Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), of the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-20837) and Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement (collectively, the "Registration Statement"), and the prospectus included therein (the "Prospectus"), relating to the proposed issuance of (i) debt securities of the Company (the "Debt Securities") to be issued pursuant to either the Senior


MAPCO Inc. 2 February 25, 1997

Indenture (the "Senior Indenture," and Debt Securities issued thereunder and pursuant to the Registration Statement being referred to herein as the "Senior Debt Securities") to be entered into by the Company and The First National Bank of Chicago, as trustee (the "Senior Trustee") or the Subordinated Indenture (the "Subordinated Indenture," and Debt Securities issued thereunder and pursuant to the Registration Statement being referred to herein as the "Subordinated Debt Securities") to be entered into by the Company and The First National Bank of Chicago, as trustee (the "Subordinated Trustee"), (ii) shares of preferred stock of the Company, no par value per share (the "Preferred Stock"), which may be issued in fractional interests of shares of preferred stock in the form of depositary shares and evidenced by depositary receipts pursuant to the Registration Statement, (iii) shares of common stock of the Company, par value $1.00 per share (the "Common Stock"), and (iv) warrants to purchase securities of the Company as shall be designated by the Company at the time of the offering (the "Warrants"), in amounts, at prices and on terms to be determined at the time of offering. (The Debt Securities, Preferred Stock, Common Stock and Warrants are collectively called the "Securities.")

The Securities offered pursuant to the Prospectus may be issued in one or more series or issuances and will be limited to U.S.$500,000,000 aggregate public offering price (or, in the case of Debt Securities, its equivalent (based on the applicable exchange rate at the time of issue) if issued with principal amounts denominated in one or more foreign currencies, or such greater amount if issued at an original issue discount, as shall result in aggregate proceeds of U.S.$500,000,000 to the Company).

In so acting, we have examined and relied upon the originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such records, documents and other


MAPCO Inc. 3 February 25, 1997

instruments as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinion expressed below.

Based on the foregoing, we are of the following opinion:

1. The Company is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

2. When (i) the issuance, execution and delivery by the Company of any of the Senior Debt Securities shall have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company and (ii) such Senior Debt Securities shall have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, authenticated by the Senior Trustee and sold as contemplated by each of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any prospectus supplement relating to such Senior Debt Securities and the Senior Indenture and, if issued upon the exercise of any Warrants, as contemplated by the terms thereof and of the Warrant Agreement relating thereto, assuming that the terms of such Senior Debt Securities are in compliance with then applicable law, such Senior Debt Securities will be validly issued and will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and by general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding at law or equity).

3. When (i) the issuance, execution and delivery by the Company of any of the Subordinated Debt Securities shall have been duly authorized by all


MAPCO Inc. 4 February 25, 1997

necessary corporate action of the Company and (ii) such Subordinated Debt Securities shall have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, authenticated by the Subordinated Trustee and sold as contemplated by each of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any prospectus supplement relating to such Subordinated Debt Securities and the Subordinated Indenture and, if issued upon the exercise of any Warrants, as contemplated by the terms thereof and of the Warrant Agreement relating thereto, assuming that the terms of such Subordinated Debt Securities are in compliance with then applicable law, such Subordinated Debt Securities will be validly issued and will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and by general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding at law or equity).

4. When (i) the terms of the Preferred Stock and of its issuance and sale have been duly established in conformity with the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws and authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company, (ii) a Certificate of Designation fixing and determining the terms of the Preferred Stock has been filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and
(iii) the shares of Preferred Stock have been duly executed, issued and delivered as contemplated by each of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any prospectus supplement relating thereto and paid for with the consideration fixed therefor by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof, and, if issued upon the exercise of any Warrants, as contemplated by the terms thereof and of the Warrant Agreement relating


MAPCO Inc. 5 February 25, 1997

thereto, assuming that the terms of such Preferred Stock are in compliance with then applicable law, the Preferred Stock will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

5. When (i) the terms of the issuance and sale of the Common Stock have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company and (ii) the shares of Common Stock have been duly executed, issued and delivered as contemplated by each of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any prospectus supplement relating thereto and paid for with the consideration fixed therefor by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof, and, if issued upon the exercise of any Warrants, as contemplated by the terms thereof and of the Warrant Agreement relating thereto, assuming that the Company has reserved for issuance the requisite number of shares of Common Stock, the Common Stock will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

6. When (i) the issuance, execution and delivery by the Company of any of the Warrants shall have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company, (ii) the Warrant Agreement relating thereto shall have been executed and delivered by the respective parties thereto and (iii) such Warrants shall have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, countersigned by the Warrant Agent and sold as contemplated by each of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any prospectus supplement or supplements relating to such Warrants and the Warrant Agreement relating thereto, assuming that the terms of such Warrants are in compliance with then applicable law, such Warrants will be validly issued and will be enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and by general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding at law or equity).


MAPCO Inc. 6 February 25, 1997

We are members of the Bar of the State of New York and no opinion is expressed herein as to any laws other than the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of our name under the heading "Legal Matters" in the Prospectus. In giving such consent, we do not thereby concede that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under
