occurred and be continuing.
(b) Except for a sale of the consolidated properties and
assets of the Company substantially as an entirety pursuant to subsection (a)
above, and other than properties or assets required to be sold to conform with
laws or governmental regulations, the Company shall not, directly or
indirectly, sell or otherwise dispose of any of its consolidated properties or
assets (other than short-term, readily marketable investments purchased for
cash management purposes with funds not representing the proceeds of other
asset sales) if on a pro forma basis, the aggregate net book value of all such
sales during the most recent 12-month period would exceed 10% of Consolidated
Net Tangible Assets computed as of the end of the most recent quarter
preceding such sale; provided, however, that any such sales shall be
disregarded for purposes of this 10% limitation if the net proceeds are
invested in properties or assets in similar or related lines of business of the
Company and its Subsidiaries and, provided further, that the Company may sell
or otherwise dispose of consolidated properties and assets in excess of such
10% limitation if the net proceeds from such sales or dispositions, which are
not reinvested as provided above, are retained by the Company as cash or Cash
Equivalents or used to retire Indebtedness of the Company (other than
Indebtedness which is subordinated to the Securities) and its Subsidiaries.
SECTION 2.8. Redemption.
The Securities are not subject to any mandatory sinking fund.
The Securities are subject to optional redemption by the
Company in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, upon notice as
provided in the Section 1105 of the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to
100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus interest
accrued on such principal amount through the Redemption Date plus a yield
maintenance premium (the "Premium") calculated by the Company with respect to a
particular series of Securi ties as of the Redemption Date as follows:
(1) the average life of the remaining scheduled payments of
principal in respect of outstanding Securities of such series (the
"Remaining Average Life") shall be calculated as of the Redemption
Date;
(2) the yield to maturity shall be calculated as of the
Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date for the United
States Treasury security having an average life equal to the Remaining
Average Life and trading in the secondary market at the price closest
to par (the "Primary Issue"); provided, however, that if no United
States Treasury security has an average life equal to the Remaining
Average Life, the yields (the "Other Yields") for the two maturities
of United States Treasury securities having average lives most closely
corresponding to such Remaining Average Life and trading in the
secondary market at the price closest to par shall be calcu lated, and
the yield to maturity for the Primary Issue shall be the yield
interpolated or extrapolated from such Other Yields on a straight-line
basis, rounding in each of such relevant periods to the nearest month;
(3) the discounted present value of the then remaining
scheduled payments of principal and interest (but excluding that
portion of any sched uled payment of interest that is actually due and
paid on the Redemption Date) in respect of outstanding Securities of
such series shall be calculated as of the Redemption Date using a
discount factor equal to the sum of (a) the yield to maturity for the
Primary Issue, plus (b) (i) 25 basis points for the
2003 Notes, (ii) 37.5 basis points for the 2005 Notes, (iii) 37.5
basis points for the 2008 Notes or (iv) 50 basis points for the Bonds;
and
(4) the amount of Premium in respect of Securities to be
redeemed shall be an amount equal to (a) the discounted present value
of such Securities to be redeemed determined in accordance with clause
(3) above minus (b) the unpaid principal amount of such Securities;
provided, however, that the Premium shall not be less than zero.
The Trustee may conclusively rely on an Officers' Certificate
setting forth the calculation of the Premium, which Officers' Certificate shall
be delivered to the Trustee on or before the Redemption Date.
SECTION 2.9. Global Form.
The Securities shall initially be issued in the form of one
or more Global Securities as provided in Section 201(a) of the Indenture. The
Depositary for the Securities shall be The Depository Trust Company. Except as

at any such office or agency and, at the option of the Company, payment of
interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled
thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register.

(REVERSE OF SECURITY)
This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Debt
Securities of the Company designated as its 6.96% Senior Notes due 2003 (herein
called the "Securities"), limited in aggregate principal amount of $215,000,000
issued and to be issued under an Indenture, dated as of October 15, 1997, as
supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of October 28, 1997
and by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of September 22, 1998 (as so
supplemented, herein called the "Indenture", which term shall have the meaning
assigned to it in such in strument), between the Company and IBJ Xxxxxxxx Bank
& Trust Company, as Trustee (herein called the "Trustee" which term includes
any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the
Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights,
duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of
the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered.
The Securities do not have the benefit of any sinking fund
obligations.
The Securities are subject to optional redemption by the
Company in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, at a redemption
price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed,
plus interest accrued on such principal amount through the Redemption Date plus
a Premium calculated as of the Redemption Date, as provided in the Second
Supplemental Indenture dated as of September 22, 1998.
Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall
be required to make an Offer to Purchase all or a specified portion of the
Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount
thereof on any Pur chase Date plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to such
Purchase Date. If the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Eligible Joint
Venture consummates an Asset Disposition, under certain circumstances, the
Company shall be required to make an Offer to Purchase up to all or a specified
portion of the Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the
principal amount thereof on any Pur chase Date, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to such Purchase Date, in an amount equal to any Net Cash
Proceeds from such an Asset Disposition that are not used to reinvest in the
business of the Company and/or repay in a permanent reduc tion of Debt of the
Company or Debt of its Restricted Subsidiaries or Eligible Joint Ventures.
Holders of Securities shall receive notice of any such Offer to Purchase from
the Company prior to the related Purchase Date and may elect to have such
Securities purchased by completing the form entitled "Option of Holder to Elect
Purchase" appearing on the reverse side of this Security.
A-5
In the event of purchase, pursuant to an Offer to Purchase,
of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities for the portion
hereof not pur chased shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon
surrender of this Security to the Trustee for cancellation thereof.
Following the Rating Event Date (and provided no Event of
Default or Default shall exist on the Rating Event Date), substantially all the
covenants contained in the Indenture (excluding the covenant relating to the
Company's obligation to make an Offer to Purchase Securities upon the
occurrence of a Change of Control) will cease to apply to the Securities. In
their place, certain other cove nants regarding restrictions on liens and the
ability of the Company to merge or consolidate with or into any other Person,
or to transfer or lease assets will apply to the Securities.
The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time
of the entire Debt of the Company with respect to this Security or certain
restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security,
including, without limitation, covenants relating to Offers to Purchase, in
each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.
If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, there
may be declared due and payable the Default Amount of the Securities, in the
manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The Default Amount in
respect of this Security as of any particular date shall equal 100% of the
principal amount of this Security plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to
such date.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein
provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities
under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent
of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at
the time Outstanding. The Inden ture also contains provisions permitting the
Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of any series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of
all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain
provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and
their consequences in each case with respect to the Securities of such series.
In addition, without the consent of any Holder of a Security, the Indenture and
the Securities may be amended and supplemented to cure any ambiguity or

supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of October 28, 1997
and by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of September 22, 1998 (as so

assigned to it in such in strument), between the Company and IBJ Xxxxxxxx Bank
& Trust Company, as Trustee (herein called the "Trustee" which term includes
any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the
Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights,
duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of
the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered.
The Securities do not have the benefit of any sinking fund
obligations.
The Securities are subject to optional redemption by the
Company in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, at a redemption
price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed,
plus interest accrued on such principal amount through the Redemption Date plus
a Premium calculated as of the Redemption Date, as provided in the Second
Supplemental Indenture dated as of September 22, 1998.
Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall
be required to make an Offer to Purchase all or a specified portion of the
Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount
thereof on any Pur chase Date plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to such
Purchase Date. If the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Eligible Joint
Venture consummates an Asset Disposition, under certain circumstances, the
Company shall be required to make an Offer to Purchase up to all or a specified
portion of the Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the
principal amount thereof on any Pur chase Date, plus accrued and unpaid

Proceeds from such an Asset Disposition that are not used to reinvest in the
business of the Company and/or repay in a permanent reduc tion of Debt of the
Company or Debt of its Restricted Subsidiaries or Eligible Joint Ventures.
Holders of Securities shall receive notice of any such Offer to Purchase from
the Company prior to the related Purchase Date and may elect to have such

hereof not pur chased shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon
surrender of this Security to the Trustee for cancellation thereof.
Following the Rating Event Date (and provided no Event of
Default or Default shall exist on the Rating Event Date), substantially all the
covenants contained in the Indenture (excluding the covenant relating to the
Company's obligation to make an Offer to Purchase Securities upon the
occurrence of a Change of Control) will cease to apply to the Securities. In
their place, certain other cove nants regarding restrictions on liens and the
ability of the Company to merge or consolidate with or into any other Person,
or to transfer or lease assets will apply to the Securities.
The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time
of the entire Debt of the Company with respect to this Security or certain

such date.

provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities
under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent
of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at

all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain
provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and
their consequences in each case with respect to the Securities of such series.
In addition, without the consent of any Holder of a Security, the Indenture and
the Securities may be amended and supplemented to cure any ambiguity or
inconsistency, make other changes that shall not adversely affect the rights of
the Holders or certain other matters specified in the Indenture. Any such
consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and

Offer to Purchase, on or after the Purchase Date).

Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and
