Indenture"), as supplemented, between the Note

The bonds of 2002 Series C shall be
payable as to principal, premium, if any, and

thereof which, in accordance with the preceding
paragraph, shall result in the discharge of the

redemption or defeasance of an equal principal
amount of 2002C Bonds in accordance with the

make up for the deficiency.

defined in the Note Indenture), the bonds of
2002 Series C shall be deemed fully paid,

the Company thereunder shall be terminated. On
the Release Date, the bonds of 2002 Series C

Sections 7 and 13 of Article II of the Original

24
Subject to the release provisions set
forth below, each bond of 2002 Series D is to be
irrevocably assigned to, and registered in the
name of, Bank One Trust Company, National
Association, as trustee, or a successor trustee
(said trustee or any successor trustee being
hereinafter referred to as the "Note Indenture
Trustee"), under the collateral trust indenture,
dated as of June 30, 1993 (the "Note
Indenture"), as supplemented, between the Note
Indenture Trustee and the Company, to secure
payment of the Company's 5.25% Senior Notes due
2032 (for purposes of this Part, the "Notes").
The bonds of 2002 Series D shall be

until the principal thereof shall have become
due and payable and thereafter until the
Company's obligation with respect to the payment
of said principal shall have been discharged as
provided in the Indenture.
The bonds of 2002 Series D shall be
payable as to principal, premium, if any, and
interest as provided in the Indenture, but only

the principal represented thereby from the June
15 or December 15 next preceding the date
thereof to which interest has been paid on bonds

unless the date of authentication is prior to
June 15, 2003, in which case interest shall be

fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a
business day) next preceding such interest
payment date. If the Company shall default in
the payment of the interest due on any interest
payment date on the principal represented by any
bond of 2002 Series D, such defaulted interest
shall forthwith cease to be payable to the
registered holder of that bond on the relevant
regular record date by virtue of his having been
such holder, and such defaulted interest may be
paid to the registered holder of that bond (or
any bond or bonds of 2002 Series D issued upon
transfer or exchange thereof) on the date of
payment of such defaulted interest or, at the
election of the Company, to the person in whose
name that bond (or any bond or bonds of 2002
Series D issued upon transfer or exchange
thereof) is registered on a subsequent record

instrument of transfer (if so required by the
Company or by the Trustee) in form approved by

and temporary form, may bear such legends as may
be necessary to comply with any law or with any
rules or regulations made pursuant thereto or as
may be specified in the Note Indenture.
Upon payment of the principal or
premium, if any, or interest on the Notes,
whether at maturity or prior to maturity by
redemption or otherwise, or upon provision for
the payment thereof having been made in
accordance with Article V of the Note Indenture,
bonds of 2002 Series D in a principal amount
equal to the principal amount of such Notes,

bonds shall be surrendered for cancellation or
presented for appropriate notation to the
Trustee.

of the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to defease an equal
principal amount of the 2002D Bonds. Pursuant to

discharge of the Company's obligation with
respect to such Notes and the cancellation
thereof which, in accordance with the preceding
paragraph, shall result in the discharge of the
Company's obligation with respect to the
applicable bonds of 2002 Series D and

defeasance of an equal principal amount of 2002D
Bonds in accordance with the 2002D Bond

insufficient to provide for such redemption or
defeasance, the Company shall pay such
additional amount as shall be necessary to make
up for the deficiency.
RELEASE. From and after the Release Date (as
defined in the Note Indenture), the bonds of
2002 Series D shall be deemed fully paid,
satisfied and discharged and the obligation of
the Company thereunder shall be terminated. On
the Release Date, the bonds of 2002 Series D
