the Trust Securities and the Indenture with respect to the Notes, the Reset

or risk their own funds or incur or be exposed to financial liability in the
performance of their respective duties under this Agreement or the Supplemental
, and, without limitation of the foregoing, the Remarketing
Agent shall not be deemed an underwriter of the remarketed Preferred Trust
Securities or Notes. It also is understood and agreed that the Company in no way
shall be obligated in any case to provide funds to make payment upon tender of
Preferred Trust Securities or Notes for Remarketing.

(which need not be an opinion), under applicable law, regulations or
interpretations then in effect to either register the offer and sale by the
Company or the Trust, as the case may be, of the Preferred Trust Securities or
the Notes, as the case may be, under the 1933 Act or deliver a current

rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as
otherwise contemplated by this Section 6, the Company and the Trust, as the case

permit and effectuate the offer and sale of the Preferred Trust Securities or
the Notes, as the case may be, in connection with the Remarketing without
registration under the 1933 Act pursuant to an exemption therefrom, if, in the
opinion of counsel for the Company, the Trust and the Remarketing Agent such an
exemption is available, including the exemption afforded by Rule 144A under the
rules and regulations promulgated under the 1933 Act by the Securities and
Exchange Commission, and in connection therewith, if requested by the
Remarketing Agent shall (i) furnish a current preliminary remarketing memorandum
to be used by the Remarketing Agent in the Remarketing not later than seven
Business Days prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or such earlier
date as the Remarketing Agent may reasonably request) and in such quantities as
the Remarketing Agent may reasonably request and (ii) furnish a current final
remarketing memorandum to be used by the Remarketing Agent in the Remarketing
not later than the third Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date, in such quantities as the Remarketing Agent may

(c) In connection with the Remarketing, if and to the extent required (upon
advice of counsel for either the Company, the Trust or the Remarketing Agent) by
applicable law, regulations or interpretations in effect at the time of such
Remarketing, the Company and the Trust, as the case may be, will endeavor to
qualify the Preferred Trust Securities or Notes, as the case may be, under the
securities or blue sky laws of the states where such qualification is required.
SECTION 7. CONDITIONS TO THE REMARKETING AGENT'S OBLIGATIONS.
(a) The obligations of the Remarketing Agent or Agents to remarket the
Preferred Trust Securities or the Notes, as the case may be, shall be subject to
the terms and conditions of the Supplemental Remarketing Agreement.
(b) If at any time during the term of this Agreement, any Indenture Event
of Default or Declaration Event of Default, or event that with the passage of
time or the giving of notice or both would become an Indenture Event of Default
or Declaration Event of Default, has occurred and is continuing under the
Indenture or the Declaration, then the obligations and duties of the
5
Remarketing Agent under this Agreement shall be suspended until such default or
event has been cured. The Company and the Trust, as the case may be, will cause
the Indenture Trustee and the Property Trustee to give the Remarketing Agent
notice of all such defaults and events of which either the Company, the Trust,
the Indenture Trustee, or the Property Trustee is aware.
SECTION 8. TERMINATION OF REMARKETING AGREEMENT.
This Agreement shall terminate as to the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent
on the effective date of its replacement pursuant to Section 4(a) hereof or
pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof.
In addition, each former Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent shall be
entitled to the rights and benefits under Sections 9 and 10 of this Agreement
notwithstanding the replacement or resignation of such Remarketing Agent and
Reset Agent.
SECTION 9. REMARKETING AGENT'S PERFORMANCE; DUTY OF CARE.
The duties and obligations of the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent shall
be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement and, in the
case of the Remarketing Agent, the Supplemental Remarketing Agreement. No
implied covenants or obligations of or against the Remarketing Agent and Reset
Agent shall be read into this Agreement or the Supplemental Remarketing
Agreement. In the absence of bad faith on the part of the Remarketing Agent and
Reset Agent, the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent may conclusively rely upon
any document furnished to it which purports to conform to the requirements of
this Agreement or the Supplemental Remarketing Agreement, as the case may be, as
to the truth of the statements expressed therein. The Remarketing Agent and
Reset Agent shall be protected in acting upon any document or communication
reasonably believed by it to be signed, presented or made by the proper party or
parties. The Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent shall not have any obligation to
determine whether there is any limitation under applicable law on the Reset Rate
on the Preferred Trust Securities or Notes, as the case may be, or, if there is
any such limitation, the maximum permissible Reset Rate on the Preferred Trust
Securities or Notes, as the case may be, and they shall rely solely upon written
notice from the Company (which the Company agrees to provide prior to the tenth
Business Day before the Purchase Contract Settlement Date) as to whether or not
there is any such limitation and, if so, the maximum permissible Reset Rate. The
Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent shall in no way incur any liability under this
Agreement or the Supplemental Remarketing Agreement to any beneficial owner or
holder of Preferred Trust Securities or Notes, as the case may be, or other
securities, either in its individual capacity or as Remarketing Agent and Reset
Agent, for any action or failure to act in connection with the Remarketing or
otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
the Supplemental Remarketing Agreement.
SECTION 10. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.
(a) The Company and the Trust, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify
and hold harmless the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent and its respective
directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates and each person, if any, who
controls the Remarketing Agent and
6
Reset Agent within the meaning of either Section 15 of the 1933 Act, or Section
20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), as
follows:
(i) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and expenses whatsoever, joint or several, as incurred, to which the
Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent may become subject under any applicable
federal or state law, or otherwise, and related to, arising out of, or
based on (A) the failure to have an effective Registration Statement (as
defined in the Supplemental Remarketing Agreement) under the 1933 Act
relating to Remarketing of the Preferred Trust Securities or Notes, as the
case may be, if required, or the failure to satisfy the prospectus delivery
requirements of the 1933 Act but only if the Company or the Trust, as the
case may be, failed to provide the Remarketing Agent with a Prospectus (as
defined in the Supplemental Remarketing Agreement) for delivery, or (B) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained
in the Registration Statement or Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if
the Company or Trust shall have furnished any amendments or supplements
thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein,
in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, or (C) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in any preliminary remarketing memorandum or any
final remarketing memorandum, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or
the omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading, or (D) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any other documents (including,
without limitation, any documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated
by reference in any such documents) provided by the Company or Trust for
use in connection with the remarketing of the Preferred Trust Securities or
Notes, as the case may be, or any of the transactions related thereto, or
(E) any failed Remarketing, except to the extent that any loss, claim,
damage, liability or expense resulted from the willful misconduct, gross
negligence or bad faith of the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent, or (F)
the Remarketing of the Preferred Trust Securities or Notes, as the case may
be, or the determination of the Reset Rate, except to the extent that any
loss, claim, damage, liability or expense resulted from the willful
misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith of the Remarketing Agent or the
Reset Agent, as the case may be;
(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense
whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in
settlement with the consent of the Company or the Trust, as the case may
be, of any litigation or any investigation or proceeding by any
governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim
whatsoever related to, arising out of or based on any matter described in
(i) above; and
(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including
the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Remarketing Agent and
Reset Agent) reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending
against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any
governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim
whatsoever related to, arising out or based on any matter
7
described in (i) above to the extent that any such expense is not paid
under (i) or (ii) above;
provided, however, that neither the Company nor the Trust shall be liable under
clause (i)(B), (i)(C), or (i)(D) to the extent any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or expense arises out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged
untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent
expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), any
preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement
thereto) or any preliminary or final remarketing memorandum (or any amendment or
supplement thereto) or any other documents used in connection with remarketing
of the Preferred Trust Securities or Notes, as the case may be; provided,
further, that with respect to any untrue statement or omission of a material
fact made in any preliminary prospectus, the indemnity agreement contained in
this Section 10(a) shall not inure to the benefit of the Remarketing Agent to
the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability of the Remarketing
Agent occurs under the circumstance where it shall be that (w) the Company had
previously furnished copies of the Prospectus or final remarketing memorandum,
as the case may be, to the Remarketing Agent, (x) the untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a
material fact contained in the preliminary prospectus or preliminary remarketing
memorandum was corrected in the Prospectus or final remarketing memorandum, as
the case may be, and (y) there was not sent or given to such person, at or prior
to the written confirmation of the sale of Securities to such person, a copy of
the Prospectus or final remarketing memorandum, as the case may be, and the
delivery thereof would have constituted a complete defense to such person's
claim in respect of such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue
statement or omission.
The Company and the Trust agree that no indemnified party shall have any
liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the
Company or its respective security holders or creditors relating to or arising
out of the engagement of the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent pursuant to, or
the performance by the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent of its respective
services contemplated by, this Agreement or the Supplemental Remarketing
Agreement except to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or
expense resulted from the willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith of
the Remarketing Agent and the Reset Agent, as the case may be.
(b) The Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent agree to indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, its directors and its officers who sign the Registration
Statement, the Trust and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the
Trust within the meaning of either Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of
the 1934 Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and
the Trust to such Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent, but only with reference to
information relating to such Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent furnished to the
Company or the Trust in writing by such Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent
expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the
Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto.
(c) An indemnifying party agrees that, without an indemnified party's prior
written consent, it will not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any
judgment with respect to
8
any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or
body, commenced or threatened, or any action or claim whatsoever in respect of
which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 10
(whether or not any indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such
claim, action or proceeding), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i)
includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability
arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding, action or claim and
(ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability
or a failure to act by or on behalf of an indemnified party.
(d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) or (b)
of this Section 10 is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient to
hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities,
claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party
under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a
result of such losses, liabilities, claims or damages (i) in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and
Trust on the one hand and the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent on the other
hand from the remarketing of the Preferred Trust Securities or Notes, as the
case may be, contemplated hereby or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause
(i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also
the relative fault of the Company and the Trust on the one hand and of the
Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent on the other hand in connection with the
statements, omissions or other matters which resulted in such losses,
liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the
Trust on the one hand and the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent on the other
hand in connection with the remarketing of the Preferred Trust Securities or
Notes, as the case may be, contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be in the same
respective proportions as the aggregate stated amount of the Preferred Trust
Securities or the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, as the case may be,
which are or are to be remarketed bears to the aggregate fees actually received
by the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent under Section 3 hereof. The relative
fault of the Company and the Trust on the one hand and the Remarketing Agent and
the Reset Agent on the other hand (i) in the case of an untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material
fact, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether such
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company
or the Trust on the one hand or by the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent on the
other hand and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information
and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission and (ii) in the
case of any other action or omission shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether such action or omission was taken or omitted to be taken
by the Company or the Trust on the one hand, or by the Remarketing Agent and
Reset Agent, on the other hand, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to prevent or correct such action or
omission. The Company, the Trust and the Remarketing Agent and Reset Agent agree
that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section
10(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of
allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in this Section 10(d). The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims,
damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to in this
Section 10(d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses incurred by
such
9
indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any
litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or
body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such
untrue or alleged untrue statement or any such omission or alleged omission or
any other such action or omission; provided, however, that to the extent
permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Remarketing Agent and Reset
Agent be required to contribute any amount which, in the aggregate, exceeds the
aggregate fees received by them under Section 3 of this Agreement. No
investigation or failure to investigate by any indemnified party shall impair
the foregoing indemnification and contribution agreement or any rights an
indemnified party may have. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 0000 Xxx) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.
(e) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of written notice of any
claim or commencement of an action or proceeding with respect to which
indemnification may be sought hereunder, such indemnified party will notify the
indemnifying party in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such
action or proceeding, but failure to so notify the indemnifying party will not
relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to such
indemnified party under this indemnification and contribution agreement except
to the extent the indemnifying party was materially prejudiced by such failure
to notify, and in any event will not relieve the indemnifying party from any
other liability that it may have to such indemnified party. An indemnifying
party, upon request of an indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any
others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the
fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such
proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own
counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of
such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party shall have agreed in
writing to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) the indemnifying party shall have
failed to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently any claim within
ten calendar days after receiving written notice from the indemnified party that
that indemnified party believes the indemnifying party has failed to take such
steps or (iii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded
parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and
representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to
actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the
indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related
proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and
expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for
all such indemnified parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be
reimbursed as they are incurred after receipt of adequate documentation thereof.
(g) Anything herein or in the Supplemental Remarketing Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, the provisions of this Section 10, and the rights of
the indemnified parties shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any
rights or benefits (including, without limitation, rights to indemnification or
contribution) which such parties may have under any other instrument or
agreement.
SECTION 11. GOVERNING LAW.
10
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York.
SECTION 12. TERM OF AGREEMENT.
(a) Unless otherwise terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof
