preferred stock of the Borrower; provided, that (x) any such perpetual
preferred stock shall be issued on substantially similar terms as
previous issues of perpetual preferred stock of the Borrower and shall,
in any event, provide for no mandatory redemption (except for a
mandatory redemption that only becomes operative after the Borrower has
complied with any applicable provisions of this Agreement) and (y) for
the avoidance of doubt, no cash dividends shall be payable by the

acquired subsequent to its execution and delivery hereof and prior to the
effectiveness hereof.
