Section 106.    Notices to Holders; Waiver

        Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears on the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. 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 the 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 the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of 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 a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

Section 111.    Benefits of Indenture

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

Section 112.    Governing Law

        This Indenture shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

Section 113.    Legal Holidays

        In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Stated Maturity of any Security, or the last date on which a Holder has the right to convert a Security at a particular conversion price, or any date on which any Defaulted Interest is proposed to be paid, shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) or, if applicable to a particular series of Securities, conversion, need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, at the Stated Maturity, or on the last day for such conversion, or on the date on which the Defaulted Interest is proposed to be paid, and no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity or on the last day for such conversion, or date for the payment of Defaulted Interest, as the case may be.

Section 114.    Act of Holders When Securities Are Denominated In Different Currencies

        Whenever any action or Act is to be taken hereunder by the Holders of two or more Series of Securities denominated in different currencies, then, for the purposes of determining the principal amount of Securities held by such Holders, the aggregate principal amount of the Securities denominated in a currency other than United States dollars shall be deemed to be that amount of United States dollars that could be obtained for such principal amount on the basis of the spot rate of exchange for such currency as determined by the Company or by an authorized exchange rate agent and evidenced to the Trustee by an Officers’ Certificate as of the date the taking of such action or Act by the Holders of the requisite percentage in principal amount of the Securities is evidenced to the Trustee. An exchange rate agent may be authorized in advance or from time to time by the Company, and may be the Trustee or its Affiliate. Any such determination by the Company or by any such exchange rate agent shall be conclusive and binding on all Holders and the Trustee, and neither the Company nor such exchange rate agent shall be liable therefor in the absence of bad faith.

Section 115.    Monies of Different Currencies to Be Segregated

        The Trustee shall segregate monies, funds, and accounts held by the Trustee hereunder in one currency from any monies, funds or accounts in any other currencies, notwithstanding any provision herein which would otherwise permit the Trustee to commingle such amounts.

9 Exhibit 4.2

Section 116.    Payment to Be In Proper Currency

        Each reference in any Security, or in the Authorizing Resolution relating thereto, to any currency shall be of the essence. In the case of any Security denominated in any currency (the “Required Currency”) other than United States dollars, except as otherwise provided therein or in the related Authorizing Resolution, the obligation of the Company to make any payment of principal, premium or interest thereon shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender by the Company, or recovery by the Trustee, in any currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in the Trustee timely holding the full amount of the Required Currency then due and payable. If any such tender or recovery is in a currency other than the Required Currency, the Trustee may exchange such currency for the Required Currency. The costs and risks of any such exchange, including without limitation the risks of delay and exchange rate fluctuation, shall be borne by the Company, the Company shall remain fully liable for any shortfall or delinquency in the full amount of Required Currency then due and payable, and in no circumstances shall the Trustee be liable therefor. The Company hereby waives any defense of payment based upon any such tender or recovery which is not in the Required Currency, or which, when exchanged for the Required Currency by the Trustee, is less than the full amount of Required Currency then due and payable.

$1,000 and any integral multiple thereof, or in such other currencies or denominations as may be specified in, or pursuant to, the Authorizing Resolution relating to the Series.

Section 303.    Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating

        The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman, its Chief Executive Officer, its President or one of its Vice and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.

        Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

        At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any Series executed by the Company to the Authenticating Agent, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities. The Company Order may provide that the Securities which are the subject thereof shall be authenticated and delivered by the Authenticating Agent upon the telephonic, written or other order of Persons designated in the Company Order, and that such Persons are authorized to specify the terms and conditions of such Securities, to the extent permitted by the Authorizing Resolution relating thereto. The Trustee shall execute and deliver the supplemental indenture (if any) relating to said Securities and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery said Securities as specified in such Company Order; provided, that, prior to authentication and delivery of the first Securities of any Series, the Trustee and the Authenticating Agent shall have received:

        (1)    A copy of the Authorizing Resolution, with a copy of the form of Security approved thereby attached thereto;


        (2)    A supplemental indenture in respect of the issuance of the Series, if called for by the terms of the Authorizing Resolution in respect thereof, executed on behalf of the Company;


        (3)    An Officers’ Certificate to the effect that the Securities of such Series comply or will comply with the requirements of this Indenture and the said Authorizing Resolution and supplemental indenture (if any);


        (4)    An Opinion of Counsel (a) to the effect that (i) the Securities of such Series, the Authorizing Resolution and the supplemental indenture (if any) relating thereto comply or will comply with the requirements of this Indenture, (ii) the Securities of such Series, when authenticated and delivered by the Authenticating Agent in accordance with the said Company Order, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to (A) bankruptcy and other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally as in effect from time to time, (B) limitations of generally applicable equitable principles and (C) other exceptions as are necessary; and (b) relating to such other matters as may reasonably be requested by the Trustee or its counsel; and


        (5)    If the Securities to be issued are Original Issue Discount Securities, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Yield to Maturity for the Securities or other information sufficient to compute amounts due on acceleration, or specifying the manner in which such amounts are to be determined, provided that such Yield to Maturity and other facts are not specified in the form of the Securities.


        If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 301 that the Securities of a Series are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities, then the Company shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall, in accordance with this Section and the Company Order with respect to such Series, authenticate and make available for delivery one or more Global Securities in temporary or permanent form that (i) shall represent and shall be denominated in an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such Series to be represented by one or more

18 Exhibit 4.2

Global Securities, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Security of Securities 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 a legend substantially to the following effect: “Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in definitive registered form, this Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to the nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.”

        Each Depositary designated pursuant to Section 301 for a Global Security in registered 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.

        Subject to Section 601 hereof, the Authenticating Agent and the Trustee shall be fully protected in relying upon the documents delivered to it as provided above in connection with the issuance of any Series of Securities.

        The Authenticating Agent shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities under this Section if the Authenticating Agent, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken or if the Authenticating Agent in good faith by a committee of its Responsible Officers shall determine that such action would expose the Authenticating Agent to liability to Holders of previously issued and Outstanding Securities.

        Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication unless otherwise specified in the Authorizing Resolution relating thereto.

        No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Authenticating Agent by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 304.    Temporary Securities

        Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any Series, the Company may execute, and upon compliance with the requirements of Section 303 the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery temporary Securities, which may be printed, lithographed, typewritten, photocopied or otherwise produced, in any denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers executing such Securities, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

        If temporary Securities of any Series are issued, the Company shall thereafter cause definitive Securities for such Series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities, at the office or agency of the Company provided for that purpose, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities the Company shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities.

Section 305.   Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange

        The Company shall cause to be kept a register at one of its offices or agencies maintained pursuant to Section 1002 (herein referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Company may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities

19 Exhibit 4.2

and the registration of transfers of Securities. At all reasonable times the Security Register shall be open for inspection by the Trustee. The Security Register shall be kept at the said office or agency, and said office or agency is hereby initially appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. If the Security Registrar shall not be the Authenticating Agent in respect of any Series, the Company shall promptly notify the Security Registrar as to the amounts and terms of each Security of such Series which shall be authenticated and delivered hereunder, and as to the names in which such Securities shall be registered.

        Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at the office or agency of the Company provided for that purpose, the Company shall execute, and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same Series and Stated Maturity of a like aggregate principal amount.

        Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in definitive form, a Global Security 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 or 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.

        At the option of the Holder, Securities of any Series (other than a Global Security, except as set forth below) may be exchanged for other Securities of the same Series of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

        If at any time the Depositary for any 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 303, the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary eligible under Section 303, with respect to the Securities of such Series. If a successor Depositary eligible under Section 303 for the Securities of such Series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company’s election pursuant to Section 301(10) that the Securities of such Series be represented by one or more Global Securities shall no longer be effective with respect to the Securities of such Series and the Company shall execute and the Authenticating Agent, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such Series, shall authenticate and make available for delivery, Securities of such Series in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security or Securities representing such Series in exchange for such Global Security or Securities.

        The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Securities of any Series issued in the form of one or more Global Securities shall no longer be represented by such Global Security or Securities. In such event the Company shall execute, and the Authenticating Agent, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such Series, shall authenticate and make available for delivery Securities of such Series in definitive form and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security or Securities representing such Series in exchange for such Global Security or Securities.

        If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 301 with respect to a Series of Securities represented by a Global Security, the Depositary for such Global Securities may surrender a Global Security for such Series of Securities in exchange in whole or in part for Securities of such Series in definitive form on such terms as are acceptable to the Company and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Company shall execute, and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery without service charge:

20 Exhibit 4.2

    (i)        to each Person specified by such Depositary a new Security or Securities of the same Series, 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 Global Security; and


    (ii)        to such Depositary a new Global Security in a denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of Securities delivered pursuant to clause (i) above.


        In any exchange provided for in any of the preceding three paragraphs, the Company will execute and the Authenticating Agent will authenticate and make available for delivery Securities in definitive registered form in authorized denominations.

        Upon the exchange of a Global Security for Securities in definitive registered form, such Global Security shall be cancelled by the Trustee or an agent of the Company or the Trustee. The Trustee or such agent shall deliver such Securities to or as directed by the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

        All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or 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 Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar 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 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 of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 906 or 1108 not involving any transfer.

        The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security of any Series during a period beginning at the opening of the day which is 15 Business Days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of such Series selected for redemption under Section 1104 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed.

Section 306.   Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities

        If (i) any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, or the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and (ii) there is delivered to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its request the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange for, or in lieu of, any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor, Series and principal amount, bearing a number not assigned to any Security of the same Series then outstanding.

        In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay the indebtedness represented by such Security.

21 Exhibit 4.2

        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) connected therewith.

        Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security 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 the same Series duly issued hereunder.

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

Section 307.   Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved

        Interest which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date, on the Securities of any Series, shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or one or more Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

        Any interest on any Security of any Series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder, as such, on the Regular Record Date for such payment; 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)        The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the 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 Security of such Series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount of such Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid 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 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 Securities of such Series at his address as it appears in the Security Register not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the said Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2).


    (2)        The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of such Series 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, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.


22 Exhibit 4.2

        Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, 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.

        Subject to the provisions of Section 1402, in the case of any Security (or any part thereof) which is converted 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 Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration 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 and such interest (whether or not punctually paid or duly provided for) shall be paid to the Person in whose name that 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 or in Section 1402, in the case of any Security (or any part thereof) which is converted, interest whose Stated Maturity is after the date of conversion of such Security (or such part thereof) shall not be payable.

Section 308.   Persons Deemed Owners

        Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Security, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any), and (subject to Section 307) interest on, such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such 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.

        None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

Section 309.    Cancellation

        All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee. All Securities so delivered and any Securities surrendered directly to the Trustee for any such purpose shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee and all Securities of any Series delivered to the Trustee for credit against any Sinking Fund payment in respect of such Series pursuant to Section 1202 shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities 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, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in its customary manner.

Section 310.    CUSIP Numbers

        The Company in issuing the Securities may use “Cusip” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, 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. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the Cusip numbers.

Section 502.    Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment

        If any one or more of the Events of Default described in clauses (1), (2), (3), (4) or (5) of Section 501 with respect to Securities of any Series shall happen, then, and in each and every such case, during the continuance of any such Event of Default, either the Trustee, by notice in writing to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of such Securities then Outstanding, by notice in writing to the Company and to the Trustee, may declare the principal amount (or, if such Securities are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may then be payable on acceleration as provided in the terms thereof) of all such Securities then Outstanding (if not then due and payable) to be immediately due and payable, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and be immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture or in the Securities contained to the contrary notwithstanding. If any one or more of the Events of Default described in clauses (6) or (7) of Section 501 shall happen, then, and in each and every such case, the principal amount (or, if any Securities are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may then be payable on acceleration as provided in the terms thereof) of all the Securities then Outstanding (if not then due and payable), shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, anything in this Indenture or in the Securities contained to the contrary notwithstanding.

        At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made with respect to any Securities 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 principal amount of such Securities Outstanding (voting as a single class) by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if

        (A)        all overdue installments of interest on all such Securities,

        (B)    the principal of (and premium, if any, on) such Securities which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon from the respective due dates thereof at the respective rates borne by such Securities or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, at rates equal to the respective Yields to Maturity thereof, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,

        (C)    to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue installments of interest from the respective due dates thereof at the respective rates borne by such Securities or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, at rates equal to the respective Yields to Maturity thereof, and

        (2)    all Events of Default with respect to such Securities, other than the non-payment of the principal of such Securities which have become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513.


        No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 503.    Collection of Indebtedness and Suits For Enforcement By Trustee

      The Company covenants that if

        (1)    default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for the period of grace, if any, provided for with respect to such payment, or


         (2)    default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at its Maturity and such default continues for the period of grace, if any, provided for with respect to such payment,


the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of all such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, with interest, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, upon the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and installments of interest from the due date thereof at the rate borne by such Securities or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, at a rate equal to the Yield to Maturity thereof, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

        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 such 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 such Securities, wherever situated.

        If an Event of Default with respect to an Series of Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of such Securities by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem necessary 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 enforce any other proper remedy.

Section 504.    Trustee May File Proofs of Claim

        In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or its or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

 

    (i)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount thereof as shall then be provable in bankruptcy as specified therein) of principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable


27 Exhibit 4.2
 

compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding;


 

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


 

    (iii)    to take any and all other actions authorized under the TIA in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding;


and any receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, 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 to 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 607.

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

Section 505.    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, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

Section 506.    Application of Money Collected

        Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article with respect to the Securities of an Series shall be applied 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 (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities of such Series and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

          FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due to the Trustee and its agents and counsel under Section 607;

          SECOND: In case the principal of the Securities in respect of which moneys have been collected shall not have become and be then due and payable, to the payment of interest on the Securities of such Series in default in the order of the maturity of the installments of such interest, with interest (to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful and such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon the overdue installments of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) applicable to such Securities, such payments to be made ratably to the persons entitled thereto, without discrimination or preference;

          THIRD: In case the principal of the Securities in respect of which moneys have been collected shall have become and shall be then due and payable, to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon all the Securities of such Series for principal and interest, with (to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful and such interest has been collected by the Trustee) interest upon the overdue principal, and upon overdue installments of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) applicable to the Securities of such Series; and in case such moneys shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amount so due and

28 Exhibit 4.2
  unpaid upon the Securities of such Series, then to the payment of such principal and interest, without preference or priority of principal over interest, or of interest over principal, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Security of such Series over any other Security of such Series, ratably to the aggregate of such principal and accrued and unpaid interest.

          FOURTH: To the Company

Section 507.    Limitation On Suits

        No Holder of any Securities 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 Trustee shall have received written notice from such Holder of a continuing Event of Default in respect of such Securities;


        (2)    the Trustee shall have received a written request from the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the Series in respect of which the Event of Default has occurred to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

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


        (5)    no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60 day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such Series;


it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Securities of any Series 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 Holders of Securities of that Series, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders of Securities of that Series or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders of Securities of such Series.

Section 508.    Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest and to Convert

        Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date), to convert such Securities in accordance with Article Fourteen to the extent that such right to convert is applicable to such Security and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

Section 509.    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 reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, 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.

29 Exhibit 4.2

Section 510.    Rights and Remedies Cumulative

        No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to 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 511.    Delay or Omission Not Waiver

        No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.

        (1)    such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture or unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Securities of all Series not joining in such direction or, in the opinion of the Trustee, involve the Trustee in personal liability, and


        (2)    the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.


Section 513.    Waiver of Past Defaults

        (2)    to the extent such right is applicable to such Security, a failure by the Company on request to convert any Security into Common Stock; or


        (3)    in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security 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 514.    Undertaking For Costs

        All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any

30 Exhibit 4.2

suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all Series (or, if the matter in issue does not relate to all Series of Securities, then the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all Series to which such issue relates) (treated as a single class), or to any suit instituted by any Holder of any Securities for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any such Security on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed therein (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

Section 515.    Waiver of Stay or Extension 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 wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, 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 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.

Section 516.    Exemption From Individual Liability

        No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of this Indenture, or of any Security, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer, director or employee, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, it being expressly understood that this Indenture and the obligations issued hereunder are solely corporate obligations of the Company, and that no such personal liability whatever shall attach to, or is or shall be incurred by, the incorporators, stockholders, officers, directors or employees, as such, of the Company or of any successor corporation, or any of the foregoing Persons, because of the creation of the indebtedness hereby authorized, or under or by reason of the obligations, covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities or implied therefrom; and that any and all such personal liability, either at common law or in equity or by constitution or statute, of, and any and all such rights and claims against, every such incorporator, stockholder, officer, director or employee, as such, because of the creation of the indebtedness hereby authorized, or under or by reason of the obligations, covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities or implied therefrom, are hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issuance of such Securities.

ARTICLE SIX
THE TRUSTEE

Section 601.    Certain Duties and Responsibilities

       (a)    Except during the continuance of an Event of Default,

        (1)    the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and


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


31 Exhibit 4.2

conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of any mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).


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

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

        (1)    this Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of Subsection (a) of this Section;


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

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

Section 602.    Notice of Defaults

        (e)    the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction;


        (f)    the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to make a reasonable examination of the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the expense of the Company, and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;

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


        (k)    in no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.


Section 604.    Not Responsible For Recitals or Issuance of Securities

        The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their

33 Exhibit 4.2

        The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Section 608, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent.

      The Company agrees

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


        (2)    except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and


        (3)    to fully indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or expense, including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the 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.

        When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5) or Section 501(6), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.

        The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

Section 608.    Disqualification; Conflicting Interests

34 Exhibit 4.2

exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. Neither the Company nor any Affiliate of the Company shall serve as Trustee hereunder. 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 hereinafter specified in this Article.

Section 610.    Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor

       (a)    No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 611.

       (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 an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition at the expense of the Company any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such Series.

       (c)    The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any Series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such Series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. If within 30 days of such removal no successor trustee has been appointed as successor trustee and accepted such appointment, the Trustee may petition at the expense of the Company a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.

       (d)    If at any time:

        (1)    the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 608 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 for a Series of Securities shall cease to be eligible under Section 609 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder of such Securities, or


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


then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii) subject to Section 514, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee. If within 30 days of such removal or inability to act, no successor trustee has been appointed as successor trustee and accepted such appointment, the Trustee may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.

       (e)    If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more Series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees 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 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 611. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any Series shall be

35 Exhibit 4.2

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, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such Series and 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 hereinafter provided, 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 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.

       (f)    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 by mailing written notice of such event by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of Securities of such Series as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register.

In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office in its capacity as Authenticating Agent, 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.

        (b)    If the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall at any time enter into a merger or consolidation with another corporation or purchase all or substantially all of the assets of another corporation, or if the Company shall sell all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation and if such other corporation has outstanding indebtedness secured by a mortgage or other lien which, by reason of an after-acquired property clause or similar provision therein contained, would extend, after such merger, consolidation, sale or purchase, to any Principal Plant owned by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary immediately prior to such merger, consolidation, sale or purchase, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall in such event be deemed to have created a mortgage or lien, within the prohibition of Subsection (a) of this Section 1006, unless (i) such merger or consolidation involving a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute a disposition by the Company of its interest in the Restricted Subsidiary, or (ii) either (A) at or prior to the effective date of such merger, consolidation, sale or purchase, such mortgage or lien shall have been released of record or otherwise satisfied to the extent it

45 Exhibit 4.2

would extend to such Principal Plant or (B) prior to such merger, consolidation, sale or purchase, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall have created, as security for the Securities (and, if the Company shall so determine, as security for any other indebtedness of the Company then existing or thereafter created ranking equally with the Securities and any other indebtedness of the Restricted Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created), a valid lien which, upon completion of said merger, consolidation, sale or purchase, will rank prior to the lien of such mortgage or other lien of such other corporation on such Principal Plant.

        (c)    If pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1006 the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall at any time be obligated to secure the Securities (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other indebtedness then existing or thereafter created ranking equally with the Securities and any other indebtedness of the Restricted Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created), the Company covenants and agrees that it will promptly furnish to the Trustee

 

    (i)    an Officers’ Certificate stating that the applicable covenant of the Company above set forth in this Section 1006 has been complied with; and

    (i)    the net proceeds of such sale (including any purchase money mortgages received in connection with such sale) are at least equal to the fair market value (as determined by Board Resolution) of such property and


 

    (ii)    subject to Subsection (d) of this Section 1007, the Company shall, within 180 days after the transfer of title to such property


(a)  

purchase, and surrender to the Trustee for retirement as provided in this Section 1007, a principal amount of Securities equal to the net proceeds derived from such sale (including the amount of any such purchase money mortgages), or

    (ii)    a deposit with the Trustee for retirement of the Securities then being surrendered as set forth in such certificate; and


 

    (iii)    an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such covenant has been complied with.


        (c)   Notwithstanding the restriction of Subsection (a) of this Section 1007, the Company and any one or more Restricted Subsidiaries may transfer property in sale-leaseback transactions which would otherwise be subject to such restriction if the aggregate amount of the fair market value of the property so transferred, when added to the aggregate amount of indebtedness for borrowed money permitted by Section 1006(d) and the aggregate amount of Funded Debt permitted by Section 1008(b) which shall be outstanding at the time (computed without duplication of the value of property transferred as provided in this Subsection (c)), does not at the time exceed 10% of Consolidated Total Assets as shown in the Company's audited consolidated balance sheet contained in the latest annual report to its shareholders.

        (d)    The Company, at its option, shall be entitled to a credit, in respect of its obligation to purchase and retire Securities under this Section 1007, for the principal amount of any Securities deposited with the Trustee for the purpose and also for the principal amount of (i) any Securities theretofore redeemed at the option of the Company and (ii) any Securities previously purchased by the Company and cancelled by the Trustee, and in each case not theretofore applied as a credit under this Subsection (d) or Section 1202.

        (e)    For purposes of this Section 1007, the amount or the principal amount of Securities which are Original Issue Discount Securities shall be the principal amount of said Original Issue Discount Securities that on the date of the purchase or redemption of such Securities referred to in this Section could be declared to be due and payable pursuant to Section 502.

Section 1008.    Limitation Upon Funded Debt of Restricted Subsidiaries.

47 Exhibit 4.2

determines are not as favorable as those available to the Restricted Subsidiary and (E) guarantees existing at the date of this Indenture or provide in support of Securities issued as provided in this Indenture.

        (b)    Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Section 1008, any Restricted Subsidiary may create, assume or permit to exist any Funded Debt in addition to that permitted by paragraph (a) of this Section 1008, and renew, extend or replace such Funded Debt, provided that at the time of such creation, assumption, renewal, extension or replacement, and after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of such Funded Debt which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restriction, together with the aggregate amount of indebtedness for borrowed money permitted by Subsection (d) of Section 1006 and the aggregate amount of the fair market value of property transferred in sale-leaseback transactions as permitted by Subsection (c) of Section 1007 (computed without duplication of amounts) does not at the time exceed 10% of Consolidated Total Assets as shown in the Company’s audited consolidated balance sheet contained in the latest annual report to its shareholders.

ARTICLE ELEVEN
REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

Section 1101.   Right of Redemption

        Redeemable Securities may be redeemed otherwise than through the operation of the Sinking Fund provided for in Article Twelve at the election of the Company at the times, on the conditions and at the Redemption Prices specified therein, in (or pursuant to) the Authorizing Resolution relating thereto and in the supplemental indenture (if any) executed in connection with the issuance of such Securities, any Redemption Price to be accompanied by accrued interest to the Redemption Date.

Section 1102.    Applicability of Article

        Redemption of Securities at the election of the Company or otherwise, as permitted or required by any provision referred to in Section 1101, shall be made in accordance with such provision and this Article.

Section 1103.    Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee

        The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution or set forth in an Officers’ Certificate which states that such election has been duly authorized by all

48 Exhibit 4.2

requisite corporate action on the part of the Company. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company the Company shall, at least 60 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 and of the principal amount of Securities of the Series or the several Series to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction.

Section 1104.    Selection By Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed

        If less than all the Securities of any Series are to be redeemed, the particular Securities of such Series to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 90 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such Series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination of the Series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of such Securities of a denomination larger than such minimum denomination. If the Company shall so specify, Securities held by the Company or any Subsidiary shall not be included in the Securities selected for redemption.

        If any Security selected for partial redemption is converted in part before termination of the conversion right with respect to the portion of the Security so selected, the converted portion of such Security shall be deemed (so far as may be) to be the portion selected for redemption. Securities that have been converted during a selection of Securities to be redeemed may be treated by the Trustee as Outstanding for the purpose of such selection.

        The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Security selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

        For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Security which has been or is to be redeemed.

Section 1105.    Notice of Redemption

        Notice of redemption shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security Register.

        All notices of redemption shall state:

        (1)    the Redemption Date,


        (2)    the Redemption Price,


        (3)    if less than all Outstanding Securities of the Series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amount), including Cusip number, of the particular Securities to be redeemed,


        (4)    that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security, and that interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after said date,


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


        (6)    that the redemption is for a Sinking Fund, if such is the case,


49 Exhibit 4.2

        (7)    the name and address of the Paying Agent or such other place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, and


        (8)    applicable CUSIP Numbers.


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

Section 1106.    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 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) any accrued interest on, all the Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date.

        If any Security called for redemption is converted, any money deposited with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent or so segregated and held in trust for the redemption of such Security shall (subject to the right of any Holder of such Security to receive interest as provided in the last paragraph of Section 3.7) be paid to the Company on Company Request, or if then held by the Company, shall be discharged from such trust.

Section 1107.    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 thereof 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. Upon surrender of any such Security 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 whose Stated Maturity is 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 on the relevant Regular or Special Record Date according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307.

        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 or duly provided for, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Security or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, at a rate equal to the Yield to Maturity thereof.

Section 1108.    Securities Redeemed In Part

        Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose pursuant to Section 1002 (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, 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 attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same Series, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered; except that if a Global Security is so surrendered, the Company shall execute, and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate, upon Company Order, and deliver to the Depositary for such Global Security without service charge, a new Global Security in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Global Security so surrendered.

ARTICLE TWELVE
SINKING FUND

Section 1201.    Sinking Fund Payments

        As and for a Sinking Fund for the retirement of Sinking Fund Securities, the Company will, until all such Securities are paid or payment thereof is duly provided for, deposit in accordance with Section 1106, at such times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be specified in the provisions of such Securities and the Authorizing Resolution and supplemental indenture (if any) relating thereto, such amounts in cash as shall be required or permitted under such provisions in order to redeem Securities on the specified Redemption Dates at a Redemption Price equal to their principal amounts, less in each such case the amount of any credit against such payment received by the Company under Section 1202. Each such Sinking Fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities on the specified Redemption Date as herein provided.

Section 1202.    Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments With Securities

        The Company (1) may deliver Securities of the same Series (other than any previously called for redemption or theretofore applied as a credit against a Sinking Fund payment or as a credit under Section 1007(d)) and (2) may apply as a credit Securities of the same Series redeemed at the election of the Company pursuant to Section 1101 or through the operation of the Sinking Fund in any period in excess of the minimum amount required for such period under Section 1201 or the provisions relating to such Series referred to in Section 1201 and not theretofore applied as a credit against a Sinking Fund payment or as a credit under Section 1007(d), in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any Sinking Fund payment required to be made pursuant to Section 1201. Each such Security so delivered or applied shall be credited for such purpose by the Trustee at a Redemption Price equal to its principal amount and the required amount of such Sinking Fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

Section 1203.    Redemption of Securities For Sinking Fund

        If in any year the Company shall elect to redeem in excess of the minimum principal amount of Securities required to be redeemed pursuant to Section 1201 or to satisfy all or any part of any Sinking Fund payment by delivering or crediting Securities pursuant to Section 1202, then at least 60 days prior to the date on which the Sinking Fund payment in question shall be due (or such shorter period as shall be approved by the Trustee), the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the Sinking Fund payment and the portions thereof which are to be satisfied by payment of cash, by delivery of Securities or by crediting Securities, and, at least 45 days prior to the Sinking Fund payment date (or such shorter period as shall be approved by the Trustee), will also deliver to the Trustee the Securities to be so delivered. Such Officers’ Certificate shall also state that the Securities forming the basis of any such credit do not include any Securities which have been redeemed through the operation of the Sinking Fund in the minimum amount required under Section 1201, previously credited against any Sinking Fund payment or credited in accordance with Section 1007(d). The Trustee shall, upon the receipt of such Officers’ Certificate (or, if it shall not have received such an Officers’ Certificate at least 60 days prior to the Sinking Fund payment date, then following such 60th day), select the Securities to be redeemed upon the next Sinking Fund payment date, in the manner specified in Section 1104, 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 1105. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1107 and 1108.

Section 1303.    Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance

        The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 1301 or Section 1302 to the Securities of any Series:

         (1)    The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (which term, for purposes of this Article, shall also refer to another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 609 who shall agree to comply with the applicable provisions of this Article) in trust for the Holders of such Securities (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations (as defined below) which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Securities on the Stated Maturity thereof in accordance with this Indenture and such Securities. “U.S. Government Obligations” means securities that are (x) direct obligations of the United States of America for the payment of which its full faith and credit is pledged or (y) obligations of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America, the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either case, are not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and shall also include a depository receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) as custodian of such U.S. Government Obligation or of a specific payment of principal of or interest on any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian for the account of the holder of such depository receipt, provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to such holder from any amount received by the custodian in respect of such U.S. Government Obligation.

        (2)    The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that the Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit, defeasance or covenant defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit, defeasance or covenant defeasance had not occurred.


        (3)    The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such Securities, if then listed on any securities exchange, will not be delisted as a result of such deposit.


52 Exhibit 4.2

        (4)    No Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as any event described in Section 501(5) or (6), at any time prior to the 91st day after such deposit.


        (5)    Such deposit, defeasance or discharge shall not result in a violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.


        (6)    Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an investment company as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or such trust shall be qualified under such Act or exempt from regulation thereunder.


        (7)    The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee (i) an Officers’ Certificate setting forth such election under Section 1301 or 1302, as applicable, and stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to such defeasance, discharge or deposit have been complied with, and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to such defeasance, discharge or deposit have been complied with.


Section 1304.    Application of Funds

        Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 1303 in respect of one or more Series of Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities 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, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and any premium and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

        The Company shall pay (in addition to any U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1303), and indemnify the Trustee against, any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1303 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the Outstanding Securities.

        Anything in this Article Thirteen to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 1303 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant defeasance.

Section 1305.    Reinstatement

        If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with Section 1304 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 of such Series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article Thirteen until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 1304; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of and any premium or interest on any Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of the Securities of such Series to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent.

53 Exhibit 4.2

ARTICLE FOURTEEN
CONVERSION OF SECURITIES

Section 1401.    Applicability of Article

        The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to the Securities of any series which are convertible into shares of Common Stock of the Company, and the issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of such Securities, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for the Securities of such series.

Section 1402.    Exercise of Conversion Privilege

        In order to exercise a conversion privilege, the Holder of a Security of a series with such a privilege shall surrender such Security to the Company at the office or agency maintained for that purpose pursuant to Section 1002, accompanied by a duly executed conversion notice to the Company substantially in the form set forth in Section 206 (or other form specified pursuant to the related supplemental indenture or Board Resolution) stating that the Holder elects to convert 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 shares of Common Stock which shall be issuable on such conversion shall be issued. Securities surrendered for conversion 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; and Securities so surrendered for conversion (in whole or in part) during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date to the opening of business on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (excluding Securities or portions thereof called for redemption during the period beginning at the close of business on a Regular Record Date and ending at the opening of business on the first Business Day after the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, or if such Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, the second such Business Day) 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, and such interest shall be payable to such registered Holder notwithstanding the conversion of such Security, subject to the provisions of Section 307 relating to the payment of Defaulted Interest by the Company. As promptly as practicable after the receipt of such notice and of any payment required pursuant to a Board Resolution and, subject to Section 303, 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 full shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion 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 Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion. Such conversion 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 by the Company and such Security shall have been surrendered as aforesaid (unless such Holder shall have so surrendered such Security and shall have instructed the Company to effect the conversion on a particular date following such surrender and such Holder shall be entitled to convert such Security on such date, in which case such conversion shall be deemed to be effected immediately prior to the close of business on such date) 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 shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the Holder or Holders of record of the shares represented thereby. Except as set forth above and subject to the final paragraph of Section 307, no payment or

54 Exhibit 4.2

adjustment shall be made upon any conversion on account of any interest accrued on the Securities (or any part thereof) surrendered for conversion or on account of any dividends on the Common Stock of the Company issued upon such conversion. In the case of any Security which is converted in part only, upon such conversion 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 portion of such Security.

Section 1403.    No Fractional Shares

        No fractional share of Common Stock of the Company shall be issued upon conversions of Securities of any series. If more than one Security shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares which shall be issuable upon conversion 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, any Holder of a Security or Securities would be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock of the Company upon the conversion 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 Common Stock is listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on a national securities exchange or market, on the basis of the last reported sale price on such exchange or market on the last trading day prior to the date of conversion upon which such a sale shall have been effected, or (ii) if such Common Stock is not at the time so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on a national securities exchange or market, on the basis of the average of the bid and asked prices of such Common Stock in the over-the-counter market, on the last trading day prior to the date of conversion, as reported by the National Quotation Bureau, Incorporated or similar organization if the National Quotation Bureau, Incorporated is no longer reporting such information, or if not so available, the fair market price as determined by the Board of Directors. For purposes of this Section, “trading day” shall mean each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday other than any day on which the Common Stock is not traded on the New York Stock Exchange, or if the Common Stock is not traded on the New York Stock Exchange, on the principal exchange or market on which the Common Stock is traded or quoted.

Section 1404.    Adjustment of Conversion Price

        The conversion price of Securities of any series that is convertible into Common Stock of the Company shall be adjusted for any stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications, combinations or similar transactions in accordance with the terms of the supplemental indenture or Board Resolutions setting forth the terms of the Securities of such series. Whenever the conversion price is adjusted, the Company shall compute the adjusted conversion price in accordance with terms of the applicable Board Resolution or supplemental indenture and shall prepare an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the adjusted conversion price and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based, and such certificate shall forthwith be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of Securities pursuant to Section 1002 and, if different, with the Trustee. The Company shall forthwith cause a notice setting forth the adjusted conversion price to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of such series at its address appearing on the Security Register and to any conversion agent other than the Trustee.

Section 1405.    Notice of Certain Corporate Actions

       In case:

       (1)    the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on its Common Stock payable otherwise than in cash out of its retained earnings (other than a dividend for which approval of any shareholders of the Company is required) that would require an adjustment pursuant to Section 1404; or

55 Exhibit 4.2

       (2)    the Company shall authorize the granting to all or substantially all of the holders of its Common Stock 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 shareholders of the Company is required); or

       (3)    of any reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or of any consolidation, merger or share exchange to which the Company is a party and for which approval of any shareholders of the Company is required), or of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

       (4)    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 last addresses as they shall appear in the Security Register, at least 20 days (or 10 days in any case specified in Clause (1) or (2) 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 Common Stock 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 Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock 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 agent, a copy of such notice shall also forthwith be filed by the Company with the Trustee.

Section 1406.    Reservation of Shares of Common Stock

        The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of Securities, the full number of shares of Common Stock of the Company then issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding Securities of any series that has conversion rights.

Section 1407.    Payment of Certain Taxes Upon Conversion

        Except as provided in the next sentence, the Company will pay any and all taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of shares of its Common Stock on conversion 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 shares of its Common Stock in a name other than that of the Holder of the Security or Securities to be converted, 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 1408.    Nonassessability

        The Company covenants that all shares of its Common Stock which may be issued upon conversion of Securities will upon issue in accordance with the terms hereof be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable.

Section 1409.    Provision in Case of Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets

        In case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other Person, any merger of another Person with or into the Company (other than a merger which does not result in any reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company) or any conveyance, sale, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Person formed by such consolidation or resulting from such merger or which acquires such assets, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing

56 Exhibit 4.2

that the Holder of each Security of a series then Outstanding that is convertible into Common Stock of the Company shall have the right thereafter (which right shall be the exclusive conversion right thereafter available to said Holder), during the period such Security shall be convertible, to convert such Security only into the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company into which such Security might have been converted immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease, assuming such holder of Common Stock of the Company (i) is not a Person with which the Company consolidated or merged with or into or which merged into or with the Company or to which such conveyance, sale, transfer or lease was made, as the case may be (a “Constituent Person”), or an Affiliate of a Constituent Person and (ii) failed to exercise his rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease (provided that if the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer, or lease is not the same for each share of Common Stock of the Company held immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease by others than a Constituent Person or an Affiliate thereof and in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (“Non-electing Share”), then for the purpose of this Section the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease by the holders of each Non-electing Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-electing Shares). Such supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments which, for events subsequent to the effective date of such supplemental indenture, shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article or in accordance with the terms of the supplemental indenture or Board Resolutions setting forth the terms of such adjustments. The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, conveyances, sales, transfers or leases. Notice of the execution of such a supplemental indenture shall be given by the Company to the Holder of each Security of a series that is convertible into Common Stock of the Company as provided in Section 106 promptly upon such execution. Neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent, if any, shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any such supplemental indenture relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or other securities or property or cash receivable by Holders of Securities of a series convertible into Common Stock of the Company upon the conversion of their Securities after any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, sale or lease or to any such adjustment, but may accept as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel with respect thereto, which the Company shall cause to be furnished to the Trustee upon request.

Section 1410.    Duties of Trustee Regarding Conversion

        Neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent shall at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Securities of any series that is convertible into Common Stock of the Company to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the conversion 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 agent shall be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock of the Company, or of any securities or property, which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Securities and neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent makes any representation with respect thereto. Subject to the provisions of Section 601, neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of its Common Stock or stock certificates or other securities or property upon the surrender of any Security for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of the covenants of the Company contained in this Article Fourteen or in the applicable

57 Exhibit 4.2

supplemental indenture, resolutions of the Board of Directors or written instrument executed by one or more duly authorized officers of the Company.

Section 1411.    Repayment of Certain Funds Upon Conversion

        Any funds which at any time shall have been deposited by the Company or on its behalf with the Trustee or any other paying agent for the purpose of paying the principal of and any premium and interest on any of the Securities (including, but not limited to, funds deposited for the sinking fund referred to in Article Twelve hereof and funds deposited pursuant to Article Thirteen hereof) and which shall not be required for such purposes because of the conversion of such Securities as provided in this Article Fourteen shall after such conversion be repaid to the Company by the Trustee upon the Company’s written request.

ARTICLE FIFTEEN
IMMUNITY OF INCORPORATORS, STOCKHOLDERS, OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS

Section 1501.    Indenture and Securities Solely Corporate Obligations

        No recourse for the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Security, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in this Indenture or in any supplemental indenture, or in any Security, or because of the creation 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 of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issue of the Securities.
