3.4. CONFLICT WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT. If any provision of this
First Supplemental Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with any provision
of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "ACT"), that is required
under such Act to be part of and govern any provision of this First
Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of such Act shall control. If any
provision of this First Supplemental Indenture modifies or excludes any
provision of the Act that may be so modified or excluded, the provisions of the
