(a)           In the event that any Senior Payment Default (as defined below) shall have occurred, then no Securities Payment shall be made, nor shall any property of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company be applied to the purchase, acquisition, retirement or redemption of the Debentures, unless and until such Senior Payment Default shall have been cured or waived in writing or shall have ceased to exist or all amounts then due and payable in respect of such Senior Indebtedness (including amounts that have become and remain due by acceleration) shall have been paid in full in cash.  “Senior Payment Default” means any default in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Senior Indebtedness when due, whether at the Stated Maturity of any such payment or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption, mandatory payment or prepayment or otherwise.

(b)           In the event that any Senior Nonmonetary Default (as defined below) shall have occurred and be continuing, then, upon the receipt by the Company and the Trustee of written notice of such Senior Nonmonetary Default from the holder of such Senior Indebtedness (or the agent, trustee or representative thereof), no Securities Payment shall be made, nor shall any property of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company be applied to the purchase, acquisition, retirement or redemption of the Debentures, during the period (the “Payment Blockage Period”) commencing on the date of such receipt of such written notice and ending (subject to any blockage of payments that may then or thereafter be in effect as the result of any Senior Payment Default) on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Senior Indebtedness to which such Senior Nonmonetary Default relates is discharged or such Senior Nonmonetary Default shall have been cured or waived in writing or shall have ceased to exist and any acceleration of Senior Indebtedness to which such Senior Nonmonetary Default relates shall have been rescinded or annulled or (ii) the 179th day after the date of such receipt of such written notice. No more than one Payment Blockage Period may be commenced with respect to the Debentures during any period of 360 consecutive days and there shall be a period of at least 181 consecutive days in each period of 360 consecutive days when no Payment Blockage Period is in effect.  Following the commencement of any Payment Blockage Period, the holders of any Senior Indebtedness will be precluded from commencing a subsequent Payment Blockage Period until the conditions set forth in the preceding sentence are satisfied.  For all purposes of this paragraph, no Senior Nonmonetary Default that existed or was continuing on the date of commencement of any Payment Blockage Period with respect to the Senior Indebtedness initiating such Payment Blockage Period shall be, or be made, the basis for the commencement of a subsequent Payment Blockage Period by holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representatives unless such Senior Nonmonetary Default shall have been cured for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days.  “Senior Nonmonetary Default” means the occurrence or existence and continuance of any default (other than a Senior Payment Default) or any event which, after notice or lapse of time (or both), would become an event of default (other than a Senior Payment Default), under the terms of any instrument or agreement pursuant to which any Senior Indebtedness is outstanding, permitting (after notice or lapse of time or both) one or more holders of such Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of the holders thereof) to
