Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement shall also be applicable to any Paired
Shares delivered to PaineWebber under this Agreement.
Section 3. Settlement.
3.1 Settlement Sale.
On any Reset Date, or on any other Exchange Trading Date agreed to by
both parties (in which case, the related Settlement (as defined below) will
include standard market interest breakage fees), up to and including the
Maturity Date, the Companies may give telephonic notice to PaineWebber to
settle, and PaineWebber shall settle, in a commercially reasonable manner (which
may require sales over a period of more than 1 day), all or a portion of the
Adjustment Shares ("Settlement"), as specified by the Companies, through the
sale of not more than the number of Paired Shares, the sale of which would,
based on PaineWebber's commercially reasonable judgement, result in a Settlement
Amount equal to up to 105% of the Reference Amount with respect to the
Settlement Shares on the Settlement Date, in any of the manners set forth below,
as specified by the Companies (the "Settlement Sale"):
5
(i) an Underwritten Secondary Offering (for which the
Companies shall provide at least 21 Business Days
prior notice to PaineWebber);
(ii) a Block Sale (for which the Companies shall
provide at least 3 Business Days prior notice to
PaineWebber);
(iii) a Gradual Market Distribution (for which the
Companies shall provide at least 2 Business Days
prior notice to PaineWebber); or
(iv) a DRIP Distribution (for which the Companies
shall provide at least 2 Business Days prior notice
to PaineWebber).
Upon the Maturity Date, if the Companies do not specify a manner of
sale, a Gradual Market Distribution shall be used. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the manner of sale for any Settlement Sale is a Gradual Market
Distribution and such Gradual Market Distribution is continuing three months
following the Maturity Date, PaineWebber may discontinue such Gradual Market
Distribution and sell such Paired Shares in any manner set forth above.
Settlement procedures with respect to any Settlement shall begin as soon as
commercially practicable, as determined by PaineWebber, after PaineWebber
receives notice from the Companies and no later than the first Exchange Trading
Day so specified in the notice from the Companies, subject to the notice
requirements of Sections 3.1(i)-(iv) (unless such notice requirements have been
waived by PaineWebber), unless otherwise agreed by the Companies and
PaineWebber.
3.2 Settlement.
(a) If, on the Settlement Date, the Settlement Amount is
greater than the Reference Amount with respect to the Settlement Shares (the
amount of such difference, a "Surplus"), PaineWebber will, at its option, pay
the Companies an amount in cash or Paired Shares (valued on a per share basis
equal to the Settlement Amount divided by the number of Paired Shares sold)
equal to the Surplus; provided that the Companies may elect to apply the Surplus
towards effecting Settlement of all or a portion of the number of Adjustment
Shares equal to the Surplus divided by the Reference Price on the Settlement
Date.
(b) If the number of Paired Shares sold by PaineWebber
pursuant to Section 3.1, 4.1 or 4.2 is greater than the number of Settlement
Shares, the Companies shall deliver to PaineWebber, on the Settlement Date, a
number of Paired Shares equal to the difference (the "Additional Shares"). If
the number of Paired Shares sold by PaineWebber pursuant to Section 3.1, 4.1 or
4.2 is less than the number of Settlement Shares, PaineWebber shall deliver to
the Companies, on the Settlement Date, a number of Paired Shares equal to the
difference.
(c) In all events, PaineWebber will pay to the Companies an
amount equal to all cash distributions payable to holders of the number of
Paired Shares equal to the number
6
of the Settlement Shares, which cash distributions are paid to PaineWebber after
the Settlement Date, on the Business Day after the relevant distribution is
made.
(d) If PaineWebber, in connection with any Settlement,
receives net sales proceeds, as calculated pursuant to the definition of
Settlement Amount, from the sale of Paired Shares prior to the applicable
Settlement Date, PaineWebber, on the Settlement Date, shall pay the Companies an
amount in cash representing interest that could have been earned on such net
sales proceeds at the USD LIBOR rate having a designated maturity of 1 month,
plus Spread, for the period from the date that such net sales proceeds are
received by PaineWebber until such Settlement Date.

4.1 Price Decline Termination Event Sale.
If the Closing Price on any Exchange Trading Day falls below any
Termination Price listed in the following schedule ("Price Decline Termination
Event"), PaineWebber may settle, in a commercially reasonable manner (which may
require sales over a period of more than 1 day) following notice to the
Companies, up to the percentage of the Adjustment Shares indicated in the table
below ("Settlement") through the sale of not more than the number of Paired
Shares, the sale of which would, based on PaineWebber's commercially reasonable
judgement, result in a Settlement Amount equal to up to 105% of the Reference
Amount with respect to the Settlement Shares on the Settlement Date, in any
manner specified in Section 3.1. The Companies shall specify a manner of sale
within one (1) Business Day following notice by PaineWebber to the Companies. If
the percentage of Adjustment Shares to be settled pursuant to this Section 4.1
is 100% or if the Companies do not specify a manner of sale, PaineWebber shall
have the option to specify the manner of sale. PaineWebber may, at its sole
discretion, waive any or all notice provisions in Section 3.1.

Date) plus any cash amounts in the collateral account exceeds the Interim
Settlement Amount. Distributions on the Interim Settlement Shares will be
deposited in the collateral account at PaineWebber or a custodian or depositary
designated by PaineWebber. The cash amounts in the collateral account will earn
interest at the USD LIBOR rate having a designated maturity of 1 month plus
Spread. If the Companies shall fail to deliver sufficient Additional Shares
pursuant Section 3.2(b), PaineWebber may, at its discretion, apply the Interim
Settlement Shares or cash in the Interim Settlement Account to satisfy such
deficiency. Upon final Settlement, PaineWebber shall immediately release all
claims to cash and Interim Settlement Shares held in the collateral account

8
