ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS
         This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, using a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf process, we may sell any combination of the securities described in this prospectus in one or more offerings. The total dollar amount of securities we sell through the offerings will not exceed $500 million or the equivalent denominated in foreign currencies. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we sell securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of the securities offered. This prospectus does not contain all of the information included in the registration statement. For a more complete understanding of the offering of the securities, you should refer to the registration statement, including its exhibits. The prospectus supplement may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus. You should read both this prospectus and any prospectus supplement together with the additional information described under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information” on page 23.
         You should rely only on the information contained, or incorporated by reference, in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement. We have not authorized anyone to provide you with different information. We are not making offers to sell the securities in any jurisdiction in which such an offer or solicitation is not authorized or in which the person making such offer or solicitation is not qualified to do so or to anyone to whom it is unlawful to make such offer or solicitation.
         The information in this prospectus is accurate as of the date on the front cover. You should not assume that the information contained in this prospectus is accurate as of any other date.
         References in this prospectus to the terms “we,” “us” or “Viad” or other similar terms mean Viad Corp, unless we state otherwise or the context indicates otherwise. 
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
         This prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement include and incorporate by reference “forward-looking statements.” We intend these forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but reflect current estimates, projections, or expectations of or current trends in future growth, operating cash flows, availability of short-term borrowings, consumer demand, new business, investment policies, productivity improvements, ongoing cost reduction efforts, efficiency, competitiveness, tax rates, restructuring plans (including timing and realization of cost savings) and market risk disclosures. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by the following words: “may,” “could,” “should,” “pro forma,” “looking forward,” “will,” “would,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” or similar words.
         Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results or performance to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. These include gains and losses of customers, consumer demand patterns, labor relations, consumer demand for convention and event services, existing and new competition, industry alliances and consolidation and growth patterns within the industries in which we compete. Other factors include those discussed under the caption “Risk Factors” in any prospectus supplement provided with this prospectus and other factors that may be described in a prospectus supplement or from time to time in our filings with the SEC. We do not intend to update any forward-looking information and statements, whether written or oral, to reflect change. Therefore, we caution you not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking information and statements. All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.

VIAD CORP
         We are a diversified business services company. Our services are classified into two main business segments: payment services and convention and event services. In addition, we provide travel and recreation services. Most of our services are provided to businesses for use by their customers.
         On August 15, 1996, our predecessor, The Dial Corp, spun-off its consumer products business into an independent, publicly traded company known as The Dial Corporation. The Dial Corporation’s common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “DL.” In the spin-off, we paid a dividend of one share of The Dial Corporation for each share of The Dial Corp held on August 5, 1996. As part of the spin-off, we changed our name to Viad Corp.
         The address of our principal office is Viad Tower, 1850 North Central Avenue, Phoenix, Arizona 85077 and our telephone number is (602) 207-4000. 
Payment Services
         Our payment services business is conducted by our Travelers Express group of companies. These companies engage in a variety of payment service activities, including issuance and processing of money orders, processing of official checks and share drafts, and money transfer and cash access services. Travelers Express sells money orders to the public through agent locations and financial institutions in the United States and Puerto Rico. Travelers Express also provides processing services for banks, credit unions and other financial institutions which offer official checks (used by financial institutions in place of their own bank check or cashier’s check) and share drafts (the credit union industry’s version of a personal check). In addition, through our subsidiary MoneyGram Payment Systems, we provide money transfer services through agent locations worldwide. Some of our agent locations sell or provide both money orders and money transfer services. Travelers Express also provides in-person electronic bill payment services for various companies, whose consumers pay their utility, car payment, and other bills at conveniently located retail stores. Additionally, Travelers Express provides high volume processing of refund and rebate checks, food vouchers, gift certificates, and other financial instruments. Another subsidiary, Game Financial Corporation provides cash access services to the gaming industry. Game Financial provides three primary services: installing and maintaining automatic teller machines in casinos and check cashing locations; providing cash advances on consumers’ credit cards for customers who utilize the automatic teller machines; and cashing checks at casinos. 
Convention and Event Services
         We provide convention and event services through GES Exposition Services, Inc. and our Exhibitgroup/Giltspur division. GES provides services to trade associations, show management companies and exhibitors. These services include tradeshow design and planning, decorating, exhibit design and fabrication, installation and dismantling, display rental, custom graphics, furnishings, electrical, freight-handling, logistics, transportation, and management services for conventions, tradeshows, associations and corporate and special events.
         The Exhibitgroup/Giltspur division designs, builds, installs and warehouses convention, tradeshow, museum and other exhibits and displays. This division has operations in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and Germany, and operates through an international network of strategic partners that gives it the ability to serve customers worldwide. 
Travel and Recreation Services
         Travel and recreation services are provided by the Brewster Transport and Glacier Park business units. Brewster Transport operates tour and charter buses within the Canadian Rockies, provides travel agency services to visitors of the Canadian Rockies, operates hotels in Banff and Icefield Parkway between Lake Louise and Jasper and operates the Sulphur Mountain Gondola. Glacier Park operates seven historic lodges in and around Glacier National Park in Montana and Waterton Lakes National Park in Canada.

RISK FACTORS
         In addition to the other information included in this prospectus, you should carefully consider any risk factors set forth in the prospectus supplement when determining whether or not to purchase the securities offered under this prospectus and the prospectus supplement.
USE OF PROCEEDS
         Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement, we expect to use the net proceeds from the sale of securities for general corporate purposes. These purposes may include, but are not limited to:

 	•	 	acquisitions,	
 		
 	•	 	working capital,	
 		
 	•	 	capital expenditures,	
 		
 	•	 	repayment or refinancing of debt or other corporate obligations, and	
 		
 	•	 	repurchases and redemptions of securities.	
         Pending any specific application, we may initially invest funds in short-term marketable securities or apply them to the reduction of short-term indebtedness. 
RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES
         The following table sets forth our consolidated ratio of earnings to fixed charges and ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends for the periods specified:

 	 	Three Months Ended	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
 	 	March 31	 	Fiscal Year Ended December 31

Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges	 	 	6.16	 	 	 	4.01	 	 	 	2.24	 	 	 	5.37	 	 	 	4.97	 	 	 	4.20	 	 	 	2.47	 	

		
		
Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges and Preferred Stock Dividends	 	 	5.90	 	 	 	3.87	 	 	 	2.16	 	 	 	5.19	 	 	 	4.79	 	 	 	4.05	 	 	 	2.40	 	
         For purposes of computing these ratios of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends:

 	•	 	earnings consist of income from continuing operations before income taxes, minority interest and fixed charges, less capitalized interest;	
 		
 	•	 	fixed charges consist of interest expense, interest capitalized, amortization of debt discount, an estimate of rental expense representative of interest; and	
 		
 	•	 	preferred stock dividends are increased to an amount representing the pre-tax earnings which would be required to cover the preferred stock dividend requirements.

DESCRIPTION OF OUR DEBT SECURITIES
         The senior debt securities will be issued under an indenture dated as of April 1, 1993 between us and J.P. Morgan Trust Company, N.A., formerly Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A., as trustee, and the subordinated debt securities will be issued under an indenture dated as of May 14, 2002 between us and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as trustee. The term “trustee” as used in this prospectus refers to any bank that we may appoint as trustee under the terms of the applicable indenture, in its capacity as trustee for the senior securities or the subordinated securities.
         We have summarized specific terms and provisions of the indentures. The summary is not complete. If we refer to particular provisions of the indentures, the provisions, including definitions of terms, are incorporated by reference as a part of the summary. We have included references to articles or section numbers of the applicable indenture so that you can easily locate these provisions in the indentures. Unless specifically distinguished, citations of sections contained below refer to both the senior and subordinated indentures. The indentures have been included as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. We urge you to read the indentures because they, and not this description, define the rights of holders of debt securities. The indentures are subject to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. To obtain copies of the indentures, see “Where You Can Find More Information” on page 23. 
General
         The debt securities will be direct, unsecured general obligations of Viad Corp. The senior debt securities will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The subordinated debt securities will be subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of our senior debt securities. See “Subordinated Debt Securities” on page 5.
         The indentures do not limit the amount of debt securities that we can offer. Each indenture allows us to issue debt securities up to the principal amount that may be authorized by us. We may issue additional debt securities without your consent. We may issue debt securities in one or more series. All debt securities of one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened, without the consent of the holders of the debt securities of such series, for issuances of additional debt securities of such series. (Sections 2.02 and 3.01)
         A prospectus supplement and any supplemental indentures relating to any series of debt securities being offered will include specific terms relating to the offering. These terms will include some or all of the following:

 	•	 	the title, type and amount of the debt securities;	
 		
 	•	 	the total principal amount and priority of the debt securities;	
 		
 	•	 	the percentage of the principal amount at which the debt securities will be issued and any payments due if the maturity of the debt securities is accelerated;	
 		
 	•	 	the dates on which the principal of the debt securities will be payable;	
 		
 	•	 	the interest rates (which may be fixed or variable) which the debt securities will bear, or the method for determining rates;	
 		
 	•	 	the dates from which the interest on the debt securities will accrue and be payable, or the method of determining those dates, and any record dates for the payments due;	
 		
 	•	 	any provisions for redemption, conversion or exchange of the debt securities, at our option or otherwise, including the periods, prices and terms of redemption or conversion;	
4 

Table of Contents

 	•	 	any sinking fund or similar provisions, which would obligate us to repurchase or otherwise redeem the debt securities, along with the periods, prices and terms of redemption, purchase or repayment;	
 		
 	•	 	the amount or percentage payable if we accelerate the maturity of the debt securities, if other than the principal amount;	
 		
 	•	 	any changes to or additional events of default or covenants set forth in the indentures;	
 		
 	•	 	the terms of subordination, if any;	
 		
 	•	 	any special tax implications of the debt securities, including provisions for original issue discount securities; and	
 		
 	•	 	any other terms consistent with the indenture.	
         The debt securities may be issued in registered, bearer, coupon or global form. We may authorize and determine the terms of a series of debt securities by resolution of our Board of Directors or the pricing committee of our Board of Directors or through a supplemental indenture. Unless otherwise described in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will issue debt securities only in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of that amount. (Section 2.01) 
Senior Debt Securities
         Any senior debt securities offered pursuant to the senior indenture will be senior in right of payment to all subordinated debt securities issued under the subordinated indenture. Further, the senior indenture does not prohibit us from issuing additional debt securities that may rank equally in right of payment to the senior debt securities. 
Subordinated Debt Securities
         The subordinated debt securities will have a junior position to all of our senior debt. Under the subordinated indenture, payment of the principal, interest and any premium on the subordinated debt securities will generally be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all senior debt. The subordinated indenture provides that no payment of principal, interest and any premium on the subordinated debt securities may be made in the event:

 	•	 	of any insolvency, bankruptcy or similar proceeding involving us or our properties; or	
 		
 	•	 	during the continuance of any default on senior debt beyond the grace period, unless and until the default on the senior debt is cured and waived.	
         The subordinated indenture does not limit the amount of senior debt that we may incur.
         Upon any distribution of our assets in connection with any dissolution, winding up, liquidation, reorganization, bankruptcy or other similar proceeding, the holders of all senior debt securities will first be entitled to receive payment in full of the principal, any premium and interest due on the senior debt before the holders of the subordinated debt securities are entitled to receive any payment. 
Global Debt Securities
         Debt securities may be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more global securities that will be deposited with, on behalf of, a depositary identified in the applicable prospectus supplement. Global debt securities may be issued in either registered or bearer form and in either temporary or permanent form. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for individual certificates evidencing debt securities in definitive form, a global debt security may not be transferred except as a whole by the depositary to a nominee of such depositary or by a nominee
5 

Table of Contents

of such depositary to such depositary or another nominee of such depositary or by such depositary or any such nominee to a successor of such depositary or a nominee of such successor.
         The specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to a series of global debt securities, and certain limitations and restrictions relating to a series of bearer global debt securities, will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to such series.
         We may determine not to use global securities for any series. In that event, we will issue debt securities in certificate form.
         The laws of some jurisdictions require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of securities in certificate form. Those laws and some conditions on transfer of global securities may impair the ability to transfer interests in global securities. 
Ownership Of Global Securities
         So long as the depositary or its nominee is the registered owner of a global security, that entity will be the sole holder of the debt securities represented by that instrument. Both we and the trustee are only required to treat the depositary or its nominee as the legal owner of those securities for all purposes under the indentures.
         Unless otherwise specified in this prospectus or the prospectus supplement, no actual purchaser of debt securities represented by a global security will be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificated securities or will be considered the holder of those securities for any purpose under the indentures. In addition, no actual purchaser will be able to transfer or exchange global securities unless otherwise specified in this prospectus or the prospectus supplement. As a result, each actual purchaser must rely on the procedures of the depositary to exercise any rights of a holder under the applicable indenture. Also, if an actual purchaser is not a participant of the depositary, the actual purchaser must rely on the procedures of the participant through which it owns its interest in a global security. 
The Depositary Trust Company
         We expect that the Depositary Trust Company (DTC) will be the depositary with respect to any global debt security. The following information on DTC applies to the extent that it is the depositary, unless otherwise provided in the prospectus supplement.
          Registered Owner . The debt securities will be issued as fully registered securities in the name of Cede & Co. (which is DTC’s partnership nominee). The trustee will deposit the global security with the depositary. The deposit with the depositary and its registration in the name of Cede & Co. will not change the nature of the actual purchaser’s ownership interest in the debt securities.
          DTC’s Organization . DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of that law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and a “clearing agency” registered under the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
         DTC is owned by a number of its direct participants, the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. and NasdaqAmex. Direct participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations who directly participate in DTC. Other entities may access DTC’s system by clearing transactions through or maintaining a custodial relationship with direct participants. The rules applicable to DTC and its participants are on file with the SEC.
          DTC’s Activities . DTC holds securities that its participants deposit with it. DTC also facilitates the settlement among participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in participants’ accounts. Doing so eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates.
6 

Table of Contents

          Participants’ Records . Except as otherwise provided in this prospectus or a prospectus supplement, purchases of debt securities must be made by or through a direct participant, which will receive a credit for the securities on DTC’s records. The purchaser’s interest is in turn to be recorded on the participants’ records. Actual purchasers will not receive written confirmations from DTC of their purchase, but they generally receive confirmations along with periodic statements of their holdings from the participants through which they entered into the transaction.
         Transfers of interests in the global securities will be made on the books of the participants on behalf of the actual purchasers. Certificates representing the interest of the actual purchasers in the securities will not be issued unless the use of global securities is suspended. DTC has no knowledge of the actual purchasers of global securities. DTC’s records only reflect the identity of the direct participants who are responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
          Notices Among DTC, Participants and Actual Owners . Notices and other communications by DTC, its participants and the actual purchasers will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any legal requirements in effect.
          Voting Procedures . Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. will give consents for or vote the global securities. DTC generally mails an omnibus proxy to us just after the applicable record date. That proxy assigns Cede & Co.’s voting rights to the direct participants to whose accounts the securities are credited at that time.
          Payments . Principal and interest payments made by us will be delivered to DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit direct participants’ accounts on the applicable payment date unless it has reason to believe that it will not receive payment on that date. Payments by participants to actual purchasers will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for customers in bearer form or registered in “street name.” Those payments will be the responsibility of that participant, not DTC, the trustee or us, subject to any legal requirements in effect at that time.
         We are responsible for payment of principal, interest and premium, if any, to the trustee, who is responsible to pay it to DTC. DTC is responsible for disbursing those payments to direct participants. The participants are responsible for disbursing payment to the actual purchasers. 
Transfer Or Exchange Of Debt Securities
         You may transfer or exchange debt securities (other than global securities) without a service charge at the corporate trust office of the trustee. You may also surrender debt securities (other than global securities) for conversion or registration of transfer without a service charge at the corporate trust office of the trustee. You must execute a proper form of transfer and pay any taxes or other governmental charges resulting from that action. 
Transfer Agent
         If we designate a transfer agent (in addition to the trustee) in a prospectus supplement, we may at any time rescind this designation or approve a change in the location through which any such transfer agent acts. We will, however, be required to maintain a transfer agent in each place of payment for a series of debt securities. We may at any time designate additional transfer agents for a series of debt securities. 
Covenants
         Under the indentures, we are required to:

 	•	 	pay the principal, interest and any premium on the debt securities when due;	
 		
 	•	 	maintain a place of payment;	
 		
 	•	 	deliver a report to the trustee at the end of each fiscal year reviewing and affirming, based on the review, whether we have fulfilled our obligations under the indentures;	
7 

Table of Contents

 	•	 	deposit sufficient funds with any paying agent on or before the due date for any principal, interest or any premium; and	
 		
 	•	 	do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect our corporate existence, except as otherwise provided in the indentures.	
         Our senior indenture also contains negative covenants including, among other things:

 	•	 	a limitation on liens we may assume or incur other than specified types of liens unless senior indebtedness issued under the indenture is secured equally or prior to the indebtedness secured by the liens;	
 		
 	•	 	a limitation on sale and leaseback transactions, unless the lien on any property subject to the sale and leaseback transaction is permitted under the indentures or the proceeds of the sale and leaseback transaction are used to acquire property or retire long-term senior indebtedness;	
 		
 	•	 	a restriction on our ability to consolidate, merge, transfer substantially all of our assets or purchase substantially all of the assets of another company, unless we are the continuing company or the surviving or acquiring entity is a domestic company and it expressly assumes our obligations with respect to our debt securities by executing a supplemental indenture;	
 		
 	•	 	a prohibition on restrictions on the ability of designated subsidiaries to pay dividends, make loans or transfer property to Viad Corp except as provided in the indenture; and	
 		
 	•	 	restrictions on designated subsidiaries’ ability to become liable or responsible for the payment of any indebtedness or preferred stock other than as provided in the indenture.	
Events Of Default, Notice And Waiver
         Events of default under the indentures for any series of debt securities include:

 	•	 	failure for 30 days to pay interest on any debt securities of that series;	
 		
 	•	 	failure to pay principal or premium, if any, of any debt securities of that series;	
 		
 	•	 	failure to pay any sinking fund payment when due;	
 		
 	•	 	failure to perform any other covenants contained in the indentures (other than a covenant added to the indentures solely for the benefit of a particular series of debt securities), which continues for 90 days after written notice as provided in the indenture;	
 		
 	•	 	default under any of our other debt instruments with an aggregate principal amount outstanding of at least $10,000,000; or	
 		
 	•	 	events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, or court appointment of a receiver, liquidator or trustee.	
         If an event of default for any series of debt securities occurs and continues, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% of the total principal amount of the debt securities of the series may declare the entire principal of that series due and payable immediately. (Section 6.02) If the trustee makes such a declaration, the holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of that series can generally rescind and annul the declaration and its consequences except where the trustee’s declaration is caused by either our failure to make payment of interest or any premium on or the principal of the securities of such series, or by bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings. (Section 6.02)
         The indentures limit the holders’ right to institute legal proceedings. No holder of any debt securities will have the right to bring a claim under an indenture unless:
8 

Table of Contents

 	•	 	the holder has given written notice of default to the trustee;	
 		
 	•	 	the holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of debt securities of that series shall have made a written request to the trustee to bring the claim and furnished the trustee reasonable indemnification as it may require;	
 		
 	•	 	the trustee has not commenced an action within 60 days of receipt of the notice; and	
 		
 	•	 	no direction inconsistent with a request has been given to the trustee by the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the debt securities. The holders of debt securities may enforce payment of the principal or premium, if any, or interest on their debt securities. No holder of debt securities of a particular series has the right to prejudice the rights or obtain priority or preference over the rights of any other holder of debt securities of that series. (Section 6.07)	
         The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of any series of debt securities may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or exercising any power conferred on the trustee with respect to the securities of any series; provided, however, that

 	•	 	the direction does not conflict with any rule of law or an indenture; and	
 		
 	•	 	the trustee may take any action it deems proper and which is consistent with the direction of the holders. (Section 6.06)	
         Each indenture provides that, if an event of default has occurred, the trustee is to use the degree of care a prudent person would use in the conduct of his own affairs. (Section 10.01) Subject to those provisions, the trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under an indenture at the request of any of the holders of the debt securities of a series unless they have furnished to the trustee reasonable security or indemnity. (Section 10.01)
         We will be required to furnish to the trustee in an annual statement a notice as to our fulfillment of all of our obligations under the relevant indenture. (Section 5.10 of the senior indenture and Section 5.06 of the subordinated indenture) 
Modification Of The Indentures
         In order to change or modify an indenture in ways adversely affecting the interest of the holders, we must obtain the consent of holders of at least a 66 2/3% in principal amount of all outstanding debt securities affected by that change. The consent of holders of at least a majority in principal amount of each series of outstanding debt securities is required to waive compliance by us with specific covenants in an indenture. We must obtain the consent of each holder affected in order to:

 	•	 	extend the maturity, or reduce the principal, redemption premium or interest rate;	
 		
 	•	 	change the place of payment, or the coin or currency, for payment;	
 		
 	•	 	limit the right to sue for payment;	
 		
 	•	 	reduce the level of consents needed to approve a change to an indenture; or	
 		
 	•	 	modify any of the foregoing provisions or any of the provisions relating to the waiver of certain past defaults or certain covenants, except to increase the required level of consents needed to approve a change to an indenture; or	
 		
 	•	 	modify, without the written consent of the trustee, the rights, duties or immunities of the trustee. (Section 13.02)

Table of Contents
Defeasance
         We may satisfy our obligations under the debt securities of a series before maturity. This is called defeasance. We may do so by depositing with the trustee, in trust for the benefit of the holders, sufficient funds to pay the entire indebtedness on that series, including principal, premium, if any, and interest. We must also comply with other conditions before we defease the debt securities. We must deliver an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of that series will have no federal income tax consequences as a result of the defeasance. (Article 11) 
Conversion
         Debt securities may be convertible into or exchangeable for common shares or preferred shares. The prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any conversion rights. 
Merger, Consolidation And Sale Of Assets
         Each indenture generally permits us to consolidate or merge with another entity. The indentures also permit us to sell all or substantially all of our property and assets. If this happens, the remaining or acquiring entity must assume all of our responsibilities and liabilities under the indentures including the payment of all amounts due on the debt securities and performance of the covenants in the indentures. The remaining or acquiring entity will be substituted for us in the indentures with the same effect as if it had been an original party to the indentures. Thereafter, the successor entity may exercise our rights and powers under any indenture, in our name or in its own name. Any act or proceeding required or permitted to be done by our Board or any of our officers may be done by the Board or officers of the successor entity. (Section 5.09 of the senior indenture and Section 5.05 of the subordinated indenture).

         This section describes the general terms and provisions of our preferred stock. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the specific terms of the shares of preferred stock offered through that prospectus supplement, as well as any general terms described in this section that will not apply to those shares of preferred stock. We will file a copy of the certificate of designation that contains the terms of each new series of preferred stock with the SEC each time we issue a new series of preferred stock. These certificates of designation will be incorporated by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. Each certificate of designation will establish the number of shares included in a designated series and fix the designation, powers, privileges, preferences and rights of the shares of each series as well as any applicable qualifications, limitations or restrictions. You should refer to the applicable certificate of designation as well as our restated certificate of incorporation before deciding to buy shares of our preferred stock as described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
         Our authorized capital stock consists of 207,442,352 shares of stock comprised of:

 	•	 	200,000,000 shares of common stock, $1.50 par value per share,	
 		
 	•	 	442,352 shares of Series $4.75 Preferred Stock, no par value, stated value $100.00 per share,	
 		
 	•	 	5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, and

         As of March 31, 2002, 340,352 shares of Series $4.75 Preferred Stock were outstanding and there are no other shares of preferred stock outstanding. 1,115,357 shares of our Junior Participating Preferred Stock are reserved for issuance in connection with the exercise of the rights outstanding on each share of our common stock pursuant to our stockholder rights plan. 
New Issuances
         Our Board has been authorized, subject to limitations provided in our certificate of incorporation and the rights of holders of any outstanding series of preferred stock, including the $4.75 Preferred Stock, to provide for the issuance of shares of our preferred stock in multiple series. With respect to each series of our preferred stock, our Board has the authority to determine the following terms:

 	•	 	the designation of the series;	
 		
 	•	 	the number of shares within the series;	
 		
 	•	 	whether dividends, if any, are cumulative and the dividend rate of the series;	
 		
 	•	 	dates at which dividends, if any, shall be payable;	
 		
 	•	 	whether the shares are redeemable, the redemption price and the terms of redemption;	
 		
 	•	 	the amount payable to you for each share you own if Viad Corp is dissolved or liquidated;	
 		
 	•	 	whether the shares are convertible into or exchangeable for any other securities, the price or rate of exchange or conversion, and the applicable terms and conditions;	
 		
 	•	 	any restrictions on issuance of shares in the same series or any other series;	
 		
 	•	 	voting rights, if any; and	
11 

Table of Contents

 	•	 	whether the preferred stock will be represented by depositary shares.	
         The preferred stock will have no preemptive rights. In addition, your rights with respect to your shares of preferred stock will be subordinate to the rights of our general creditors. If we receive the appropriate payment, shares of our preferred stock that we issue will be fully paid and nonassessable.
         We currently plan to retain Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, N.A. as the registrar and transfer agent of any series of our preferred stock. 
$4.75 Preferred Stock
         The number of outstanding shares of our $4.75 Preferred Stock was 340,352, as of March 31, 2002. The shares are not convertible into any other of our securities. The holders have no preemptive right to subscribe to share obligations, warrants or other securities of any kind or class we may issue now or hereafter. The following is a summary of the terms of the $4.75 Preferred Stock. The terms are set forth in our certificate of incorporation which is included as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
          Dividends . Each share of $4.75 Preferred Stock is entitled to cumulative annual dividends from the original issuance of $4.75 per share payable quarterly.
          Liquidation Preference . Each share is entitled to a liquidation preference of $100 per share in the event of a voluntary liquidation and $101 per share in the event of an involuntary liquidation, plus, in each case, accrued but unpaid dividends.
          Redemption and Sinking Fund . We may redeem the $4.75 Preferred Stock at any time, in whole or part, at a redemption price of $101 per share plus accrued but unpaid dividends. We are required to deposit into a sinking fund each year an amount sufficient to redeem 6,000 shares of $4.75 Preferred Stock. Alternatively, we may deposit shares of $4.75 Preferred Stock we acquire through repurchase or redemption in lieu of depositing the redemption amount. For this purpose, we may not deposit shares redeemed through the sinking fund. Each year we are required to use all funds in the sinking fund to redeem $4.75 Preferred Stock. The shares redeemed are chosen by lot. As of March 31, 2002, we held 105,369 shares of $4.75 Preferred Stock which we expect to apply to our sinking fund payment requirement.
          Voting Rights . We must obtain the approval of two-thirds of holders of the outstanding shares of $4.75 Preferred Stock in order to:

 	•	 	voluntarily liquidate or dissolve; or	
 		
 	•	 	merge or consolidate with or into any other corporation unless the $4.75 Preferred Stock will remain outstanding and retain its seniority.	
         We must obtain the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of $4.75 Preferred Stock in order to issue stock ranking equal to the $4.75 Preferred Stock with respect to dividend or liquidation rights.
         If we fail to pay dividends for six quarters, the holders of $4.75 Preferred Stock have the right to elect two Directors to our Board who will serve until all dividend arrearages have been paid.

DESCRIPTION OF OUR DEPOSITARY SHARES
         The following briefly summarizes the general provisions of depositary shares representing interests in shares of our preferred stock. Each issuance of shares will be issued under a depositary agreement to be entered into between us and a bank or trust company as depositary. The shares will be evidenced by depositary receipts. A form of the deposit agreement, including the form of depositary receipt is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. You should read the more detailed provisions of the deposit agreement and the form of depositary receipt for provisions that may be important to you. The particular terms of any depositary shares that we offer will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement will also state whether any of the generalized provisions summarized below do not apply to the depositary shares being offered. 
General
         We may, at our option, elect to offer fractional shares of preferred stock, rather than full shares of preferred stock. In such event, we will issue receipts for depositary shares, each of which will represent a fraction of a share of a particular series of preferred stock.
         The shares of any series of preferred stock represented by depositary shares will be deposited under a deposit agreement between us and a bank or trust company we select and that has its principal office in the United States and a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, as preferred stock depositary. Each owner of a depositary share will be entitled to all the rights and preferences of the underlying preferred stock, including any dividend, voting, redemption, conversion and liquidation rights described in the particular prospectus supplement, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a share of preferred stock represented by such depositary share.
         The depositary shares will be evidenced by depositary receipts issued pursuant to the deposit agreement. Depositary receipts will be distributed to those persons purchasing the fractional shares of preferred stock in accordance with the terms of the applicable prospectus supplement. 
Dividends And Other Distributions
         The depositary will distribute all cash dividends or other cash distributions received in respect of the deposited preferred stock to the record holders of depositary shares relating to such preferred stock in proportion to the number of such depositary shares owned by such holders.
         The depositary will distribute any property received by it other than cash to the record holders of depositary shares. If the depositary determines that it is not feasible to make such distribution, it may, with our approval, sell the property received and distribute the net proceeds from the sale to such holders. 
Redemption Of Preferred Stock
         If a series of preferred stock represented by depositary shares is to be redeemed, the depositary shares will be redeemed from the proceeds received by the depositary resulting from the redemption. The depositary shares will be redeemed by the depositary at a price per depositary share equal to the applicable fraction of the redemption price per share payable in respect of the shares of preferred stock so redeemed.
         Whenever we redeem shares of preferred stock held by the depositary, the depositary will redeem as of the same date the number of depositary shares representing shares of preferred stock so redeemed. If fewer than all the depositary shares are to be redeemed, the depositary shares to be redeemed will be selected by the depositary by lot or ratably or by any other equitable method as the depositary may decide.

Table of Contents
Voting Deposited Preferred Stock
         Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of any series of deposited preferred stock are entitled to vote, the depositary will mail the information contained in the notice to the record holders of the depositary shares relating to that series of preferred stock. Each record holder on the record date will be entitled to instruct the depositary to vote the amount of the preferred stock represented by that holder’s depositary shares. The depositary will try to vote the amount of preferred stock for which it has received instructions in accordance with the instructions.
         We will agree to take all actions that the depositary determines are necessary to enable it to vote as instructed. The depositary will abstain from voting shares of any series of preferred stock held by it for which it does not receive specific instructions from the holders of depositary shares representing the preferred shares. 
Amendment And Termination Of The Deposit Agreement
         The form of depositary receipt evidencing the depositary shares and any provision of the deposit agreement may at any time be amended by agreement between us and the depositary. However, any amendment that materially and adversely alters any existing right of the holders of depositary shares will not be effective unless the amendment has been approved by the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the shares at the time outstanding which are affected by the amendment thereto. Every holder of an outstanding depositary receipt at the time any such amendment becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such depositary receipt, to consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by the amended deposit agreement. The deposit agreement will be terminated if:

 	•	 	all outstanding depositary shares have been redeemed, converted or exchanged; or	
 		
 	•	 	a final distribution in respect of the preferred stock has been made to the holders of depositary shares in connection with our liquidation, dissolution or winding up.	
Charges Of Depositary; Taxes And Other Governmental Charges
         We will pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. We also will pay charges of the depositary in connection with the initial deposit of preferred stock and any redemption of preferred stock. Holders of depositary receipts will pay other transfer and other taxes and governmental charges and such other charges, including a fee for the withdrawal of shares of preferred stock upon surrender of depositary receipts, as are expressly provided in the deposit agreement to be for their accounts.
         Prospective purchasers of depositary shares should be aware that special tax, accounting and other issues may be applicable to depositary shares. 
Resignation And Removal Of Depositary
         The depositary may resign at any time by delivering to us notice of its intent to do so, and we may at any time remove the depositary. The resignation or removal will take effect upon the appointment of a successor depositary and its acceptance of the appointment. Such successor depositary must be appointed within 60 days after delivery of the notice of resignation or removal and must be a bank or trust company having its principal office in the United States and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. 
Miscellaneous
         The depositary will forward all reports and communications from us which are delivered to the preferred stock depositary and which we are required to furnish to the holders of the deposited preferred stock.
15 

Table of Contents

         Neither we nor the depositary will be liable if we or the depositary is prevented or delayed by law or any circumstances beyond our or its control in performing our or its obligations under the deposit agreement. Our obligations and the obligations of the depositary under the deposit agreement will be limited to performance in good faith of the duties thereunder and neither we or the depositary will be obligated to prosecute or defend any legal proceeding in respect of any depositary shares, depositary receipts or shares of preferred stock unless satisfactory indemnity is furnished. In performing our obligations, we and the depositary may rely upon written advice of counsel or accountants, or upon information provided by holders of depositary receipts or other persons believed to be competent and on documents believed to be genuine.

DESCRIPTION OF OUR COMMON STOCK
         We are authorized to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of common stock, $1.50 par value per share. This section describes the general terms of our common stock. For more detailed information, you should refer to our certificate of incorporation and our by-laws, copies of which have been filed with the SEC. These documents are also incorporated by reference into this prospectus.
         Generally, holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share, and the approval of corporate actions requires the approval of holders of our common stock, as well as approval of the holders of any series of our preferred stock that may be entitled to vote for the action. The election or removal of our Directors is not subject to cumulative voting. Directors are elected by a plurality of votes eligible to vote for the election of Directors. Directors may only be removed for cause and only by affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the voting power of the then-outstanding voting stock.
         Our common stock will be the only type of our capital stock entitled to vote in the election and removal of Directors and other matters presented to our stockholders from time to time, unless we issue voting preferred stock or our certificate of incorporation or the law requires otherwise.
         Our common stockholders will be entitled to receive dividends and distributions declared by our Board, to the extent permitted by the terms of outstanding shares of preferred stock and by our certificate of incorporation. If a dividend is declared, it will be distributed pro rata to our common stockholders, unless it is a dividend in kind.
         If Viad Corp is liquidated or dissolved, our common stockholders will be entitled to receive our assets and funds available for distribution to common stockholders in proportion to the number of shares they hold. Our common stockholders may not receive any assets or funds until our creditors have been paid in full and the preferential or participating rights of our preferred stockholders have been satisfied.
         You will not have any preemptive, subscription or conversion rights with respect to shares of our common stock that you own. We may issue additional shares of our common stock, if authorized by our Board, without your approval—unless required by the New York Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange on which our securities are traded. If we receive the appropriate payment, shares of our common stock that we issue will be fully paid and nonassessable. 
Provisions of Our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws
          Advance Notice of Nominations. Our by-laws contain provisions requiring that you deliver advance notice of any business that you intend to raise at an annual meeting of stockholders and providing for procedures to be followed if you wish to nominate a person to be elected as a Director. To be timely, you must give written notice to our Secretary not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. If the date of the next annual meeting is more than 30 days before, or more than 60 days after, the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, you must deliver notice to our Secretary within the period beginning on the 120th day prior to the meeting and ending thirty days later, or, if later, the 10th day after our public announcement of the meeting date. In addition, if we plan to increase the size of our Board, and we do not announce all of the nominees for election, or the fact that the size of our Board will be increased, at least 80 days before the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, you will have ten days following the date of our public announcement to give notice to our Secretary of your nomination for any new positions created by such increase.
         Your notice must provide information about you and the business to be brought before the meeting. You should review our by-laws for more information.
          Classification of Directors. Our certificate of incorporation provides that, except as otherwise required by specific provisions of our certificate of incorporation relating to the rights of holders of any class or series of preferred stock to elect additional Directors under specified circumstances, the number of our Directors may be fixed from time to time by a resolution adopted by a majority of our Board but must not be less than three. Our Board is classified into three classes, as nearly equal in size as possible. Each class holds office until the third

Table of Contents

succeeding anniversary of the annual stockholders’ meeting electing that class. A Director may be removed only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80 percent of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares entitled to vote, voting together as a single class.
          No Action by Written Consent. Stockholders may not act by written consent in lieu of a meeting of stockholders.
          Special Meeting. Except as otherwise required by law and subject to the rights of holders of any class or series of preferred stock, special meetings of the stockholders may only be called by our Chairman of the Board or by our Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution that indicates the purpose of the meeting, which is approved by a majority of our Directors, assuming, for this purpose, that there were no vacancies. No business other than that stated in the notice may be transacted at any special meeting of stockholders.
         According to our by-laws, if we call a special meeting to elect Directors to the Board of Directors, you may nominate individuals for election if you deliver notice to our Secretary during the period beginning on the 120th day before the special meeting and ending thirty days later, or, if later, the 10th day after our public announcement of the meeting.
          Limitation on Directors’ Liability. Our certificate of incorporation provides, as authorized by law, that our Directors will not be personally liable to Viad Corp or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a Director, except to the extent such exemption from or limitation of liability is not permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law. The effect of this provision may be to reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against Directors for breach of their duty of care, even though the action, if successful, might otherwise have benefited Viad Corp and our stockholders. 
Stockholder Rights Plan
         We maintain a stockholder rights plan. The purpose of the plan is to protect our interests and the interests of our stockholders against coercive takeover tactics. In general terms, it works by imposing a significant penalty upon any person or group which acquires 20% or more of our outstanding common stock without the approval of our Board. The purpose of the rights plan is to encourage potential acquirers to negotiate with our Board before attempting a takeover and to provide our Board with leverage in negotiating the terms of any proposed takeover on behalf of all stockholders. Therefore the rights plan may have anti-takeover effects. However, the rights plan should not interfere with any merger or other business combination approved by our Board.
         The following description of the rights plan is only a summary and is not complete. You should refer to the Rights Agreement, dated as of February 28, 2002, by and between Viad Corp and Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, N.A., as rights agent, for a more detailed description of the rights plan. A copy of the Rights Agreement is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
          Issuance . One right has been issued with respect to each currently outstanding share of our common stock. New rights will accompany any new shares of common stock we issue before outstanding rights become exercisable. The rights will initially trade with, and will be inseparable from, the common stock. The rights are evidenced only by certificates that represent shares of common stock.
          Exercise Price . Each right will allow its holder to purchase from us one one-hundredth of a share of Junior Participating Preferred Stock for $100, once the rights become exercisable. This portion of a Junior Participating Preferred Share will give the stockholder approximately the same dividend, voting, and liquidation rights as would one share of common stock. Prior to exercise, the right does not give its holder any dividend, voting, or liquidation rights.
          Exercisability . The rights will not be exercisable until the earlier of:

 	•	 	10 days after the public announcement that a person or group has become an “acquiring person” by obtaining beneficial ownership of 20% or more of our outstanding common stock without the Board’s approval, or,	
18 

Table of Contents

 	•	 	10 business days (or a later date determined by our Board before any person or group becomes an acquiring person) after a person or group begins a tender or exchange offer which, if completed, would result in that person or group becoming an acquiring person.	
         Until that date, our common stock certificates will also evidence the rights, and any transfer of shares of common stock will constitute a transfer of rights. After that date, the rights will separate from the common stock and be evidenced by book-entry credits or by rights certificates that we will mail to all eligible holders of common stock. Any rights held by an acquiring person are void and may not be exercised.
         Our Board may reduce the threshold at which a person or group becomes an acquiring person from 20% to not less than 10% of our outstanding common stock.

 	•	 	Flip In . If a person or group becomes an acquiring person, all holders of rights except the acquiring person may, for $100, purchase shares of our common stock with a market value of $200, based on the market price of the common stock prior to such acquisition.	
 		
 	•	 	Flip Over . If our company is later acquired in a merger or similar transaction after the rights become exercisable, all holders of rights except the acquiring person may, for $100, purchase shares of the acquiring corporation with a market value of $200 based on the market price of the acquiring corporation’s stock, prior to such merger or transaction.	
          Preferred Share Provisions .

 	•	 	will not be redeemable;	
 		
 	•	 	will entitle holders to quarterly dividend payments of $.01 per one-hundredth of a share, or an amount equal to the dividend paid on one share of our common stock, whichever is greater;	
 		
 	•	 	will entitle holders upon liquidation either to receive $1 per one-hundredth of a share or an amount per one-hundredth of a share equal to the payment made on one share of common stock, whichever is greater;	
 		
 	•	 	will have the same voting power as one share of common stock; and	
 		
 	•	 	will entitle holders to a per share payment equal to the payment made on one share of common stock if shares of our common stock are exchanged via merger, consolidation, or a similar transaction.	
         The value of one one-hundredth interest in a Junior Participating Preferred Share should approximate the value of one share of common stock.
          Expiration . The rights will expire on February 28, 2012.
          Redemption . Our Board may redeem the rights for $.01 per right at any time before any person or group becomes an acquiring person. If our Board redeems any rights, it must redeem all of the rights. Once the rights are redeemed, the only right of the holders of rights will be to receive the redemption price of $.01 per right. The redemption price will be adjusted if we have a stock split or stock dividends of our common stock.
          Exchange . After a person or group becomes an acquiring person, but before an acquiring person owns 50% or more of outstanding common stock, our Board may extinguish the rights by exchanging one share of common stock or an equivalent security for each right, other than rights held by the acquiring person.
          Anti-Dilution Provisions . Our Board may adjust the purchase price of the Junior Participating Preferred Shares, the number of Junior Participating Preferred Shares issuable and the number of outstanding rights to prevent dilution that may occur from a stock dividend, a stock split, a reclassification of the Junior Participating Preferred Shares or common stock. No adjustments to the exercise price of less than 1% will be made.
          Amendments . The terms of the Rights Agreement may be amended by our Board without the consent of the holders of the rights. However, our Board may not amend the Rights Agreement to lower the threshold at which a
19 

Table of Contents

person or group becomes an acquiring person to below 10% of our outstanding common stock. In addition, the Board may not cause a person or group to become an acquiring person by lowering this threshold below the percentage interest that such person or group already owns. After a person or group becomes an acquiring person, our Board may not amend the agreement in a way that adversely affects holders of the rights. 
Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law
         Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law prohibits a defined set of transactions between a Delaware corporation, such as Viad Corp, and an “interested stockholder.” An interested stockholder is defined as a person who, together with any affiliates or associates of such person, beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 15% or more of the outstanding voting shares of a Delaware corporation. This provision may prohibit business combinations between an interested stockholder and a corporation for a period of three years after the date the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. The term “business combination” is broadly defined to include mergers, consolidations, sales or other dispositions of assets having a total value in excess of 10% of the consolidated assets of the corporation, and some other transactions that would increase the interested stockholder’s proportionate share ownership in the corporation.
         This prohibition is effective unless:

 	•	 	the business combination is approved by the corporation’s Board of Directors prior to the time the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder;	
 		
 	•	 	the interested stockholder acquired at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation, other than stock held by Directors who are also officers or by qualified employee stock plans, in the transaction in which it becomes an interested stockholder; or	
 		
 	•	 	the business combination is approved by a majority of the Board of Directors and by the affirmative vote of 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.	
Stock Exchange Listing
         Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and the trading symbol is “VVI.” 
Transfer Agent
         Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, N.A. is the transfer agent for our common stock.

DESCRIPTION OF OUR WARRANTS
         This section describes the general terms and provisions of our warrants. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the specific terms of the warrants offered through that prospectus supplement, as well as any general terms described in this section that will not apply to those warrants.
         We may issue warrants for the purchase of our debt securities or our common stock. We may issue warrants independently or together with other securities, and they may be attached to or separate from the other securities. Each series of warrants will be issued under a separate warrant agreement that we will enter into with a bank or trust company, as warrant agent, as detailed in the applicable prospectus supplement. The warrant agent will act solely as an agent of Viad Corp in connection with the warrants and will not assume any obligation, or agency or trust relationship, with you. The forms of warrant agreements, including the forms of warrant certificates, are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
         You should refer to the provisions of the warrant agreements for more specific information. The prospectus supplement relating to a particular issue of warrants will describe the terms of those warrants, including, where applicable:

 	•	 	the exercise price for our debt securities, the amount of debt securities you will receive upon exercise, and a description of that series of debt securities;	
 		
 	•	 	the exercise price for shares of our common stock and the number of shares of common stock you will receive upon exercise;	
 		
 	•	 	the expiration date;	
 		
 	•	 	whether the warrants will be issued in registered or bearer form, or both;	
 		
 	•	 	U.S. federal income tax consequences; and	
 		
 	•	 	any other terms of the warrants.	
         After your warrants expire they will become void. The prospectus supplement will describe how you may exercise your warrants. You must exercise warrants for our common stock through payment in U.S. dollars. The prospectus supplement may provide for the adjustment of the exercise price of the warrants.
         Until you exercise your warrants to purchase our debt securities or common stock, you will not have any rights as a holder of our debt securities or common stock, as the case may be, by virtue of your ownership of warrants.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
         We may sell the offered securities in and outside the United States (a) through underwriters or dealers, (b) directly to purchasers, including our affiliates, (c) through agents or (d) through a combination of any of these methods. The prospectus supplement will include the following information:

 	•	 	the terms of the offering;	
 		
 	•	 	the names of any underwriters or agents;	
 		
 	•	 	the name or names of any managing underwriter or underwriters;	
 		
 	•	 	the purchase price of the securities;	
 		
 	•	 	the net proceeds from the sale of the securities;	
 		
 	•	 	any delayed delivery arrangements;	
 		
 	•	 	any underwriting discounts, commissions and other items constituting underwriters’ compensation;	
 		
 	•	 	any initial public offering price;	
 		
 	•	 	any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and	
 		
 	•	 	any commissions paid to agents.	
Sale Through Underwriters Or Dealers
         If underwriters are used in the sale, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account. The underwriters may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Underwriters may offer securities to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the offered securities if they purchase any of them. The underwriters may change from time to time any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers.
         During and after an offering through underwriters, the underwriters may purchase and sell the securities in the open market. These transactions may include overallotment and stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover syndicate short positions created in connection with the offering. The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid, which means that selling concessions allowed to syndicate members or other broker-dealers for the offered securities sold for their account may be reclaimed by the syndicate if the offered securities are repurchased by the syndicate in stabilizing or covering transactions. These activities may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the offered securities, which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail in the open market. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue these activities at any time.
         Some or all of the securities that we offer through this prospectus may be new issues of securities with no established trading market. Any underwriters to whom we sell our securities for public offering and sale may make a market in those securities, but they will not be obligated to and they may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. Accordingly, we cannot assure you of the liquidity of, or continued trading markets for, any securities that we offer.
22 

Table of Contents

         If dealers are used in the sale of securities, we will sell the securities to them as principals. They may then resell those securities to the public at varying prices determined by the dealers at the time of resale. We will include in the prospectus supplement the names of the dealers and the terms of the transaction. 
Direct Sales and Sales Through Agents
         We may sell the securities directly. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved. We may also sell the securities through agents designated from time to time. In the prospectus supplement, we will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the offered securities, and we will describe any commissions payable to the agent. Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement, any agent will agree to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of its appointment.
         We may sell the securities directly to institutional investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to any sale of those securities. We will describe the terms of any such sales in the prospectus supplement. 
Delayed Delivery Contracts
         If we so indicate in the prospectus supplement, we may authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers from certain types of institutions to purchase securities from us at the public offering price under delayed delivery contracts. These contracts would provide for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts would be subject only to those conditions described in the prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement will describe the commission payable for solicitation of those contracts. 
General Information
         We may have agreements with the agents, dealers and underwriters to indemnify them against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, or to contribute with respect to payments that the agents, dealers or underwriters may be required to make. Agents, dealers and underwriters may be customers of, engage in transactions with or perform services for us in the ordinary course of their businesses.

Item 15. Indemnification Of Directors And Officers
          Delaware General Corporation Law. Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), Viad Corp is empowered to indemnify its directors and officers in the circumstances therein provided. Certain portions of Section 145 are summarized below:
         Section 145(a) of the DGCL provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in the manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, did not have reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful.
         Section 145(b) of the DGCL provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Delaware Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
         Section 145(c) of the DGCL provides that to the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in
II-1 

Table of Contents

Section 145(a) and (b), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.
         Section 145(d) of the DGCL provides that any indemnification under Section 145(a) and (b) (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 145(a) and (b). Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director of officer at the time of such determination, (1) by a majority vote of the directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the stockholders.
         Section 145(e) of the DGCL provides that expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in Section 145. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate.
         Section 145(f) of the DGCL provides that the indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.
         Section 145(g) of the DGCL provides that a corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under Section 145.
          Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws. The Certificate of Incorporation of Viad Corp provides that no director of Viad Corp shall be personally liable to Viad Corp or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption or limitation is prohibited under the DGCL as it currently exists or as it may be amended in the future. The Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws also provide that Viad Corp shall indemnify each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of Viad Corp or is or was serving at the request of Viad Corp as a director or officer of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans (whether the basis of such action, suit or proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or officer or in any other capacity while serving as a director or officer), to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL as it currently exists or as it may be amended in the future, against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, payments in settlement and excise taxes or penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as in effect from time to time) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person. Such indemnification shall continue as to a person who ceases to be a director or officer of Viad Corp and shall inure to the benefit of such person’s heirs, executors and administrators. Viad Corp shall not be required to indemnify a person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding initiated by such person if it was not authorized by the Board of Directors except under limited circumstances.
         The By-Laws also provides that Viad Corp shall pay the expenses of directors and officers incurred in defending any such action, suit or proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that, if and to the extent that the DGCL requires, the payment of expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action, suit or proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by the director or
II-2 

Table of Contents

officer to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under the Certificate of Incorporation or otherwise. If a claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses by an officer or director under the By-Laws is not paid in full within 30 calendar days after a written claim therefor has been received by Viad Corp, the claimant may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled also to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any action, suit or proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to Viad Corp) that the claimant has not met the standard of conduct which makes it permissible under the DGCL for Viad Corp to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed. Viad Corp shall have the burden of providing such defense. Neither the failure of Viad Corp to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in circumstances because the claimant has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by Viad Corp that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct. The right to indemnification and the payment of expenses conferred on any person by the By-Laws shall not be exclusive of any other rights which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of Viad Corp, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
         Any repeal or modification of the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation described herein by the stockholders of Viad Corp will not adversely affect any limitation on the personal liability of directors for, or any rights of directors in respect of, any cause of action, suit or claim accruing or arising prior to the repeal or modification.
         The Certificate of Incorporation also provides that Viad Corp may maintain insurance to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of Viad Corp or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any such expense, liability or loss, whether or not Viad Corp would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under DGCL.

                           (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
                  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
                  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
         (B)  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement) shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
         (C)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
         (D)  The undersigned registrants hereby undertake that:
                           (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by Viad Corp pursuant to Rule 424 (b) (1) or (4) or 497 (h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective;
                           (2) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

FORM, EXECUTION, DELIVERY, TRANSFER AND
EXCHANGE OF SECURITIES
SECTION 2.01. The Securities of each series shall be issuable in registered form and shall be in substantially such form as shall be established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution or in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in each case with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Indenture, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends or endorsements printed, lithographed or engraved thereon as the officers of the Company executing the same may approve (execution thereof to be conclusive evidence of such approval) and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which the Securities may be listed, or to conform to usage. The Securities shall be issued, except as otherwise provided with respect to any series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.02, in the denomination of $1,000 and any larger denomination which is an integral multiple of $1,000 approved by the Company, such approval to be evidenced by the execution thereof.
If Securities of a series are issuable in whole or in part in global form, any such Security may provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and may also provide that the aggregate amount of Outstanding

9
Securities represented thereby may from time to time be reduced to reflect exchanges or increased to reflect the issuance of additional Securities. Any endorsement of a Security in global form to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of Outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made in such manner and by such person or persons, as shall be specified therein or in the Company order of authentication delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.04.
The person in whose name any Security is registered at the close of business on any Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be entitled to receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the cancellation of such Security upon any transfer or exchange thereof subsequent to such Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that, if and to the extent the Company shall default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, the defaulted interest shall be paid to the persons in whose names the outstanding Securities are registered on a subsequent record date, such record date to be not less than 5 days prior to the date of payment of such defaulted interest, established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Company to the holders of Securities not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date.
The principal of and interest and premium, if any, on the Securities shall be payable at each office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 5.02 for such purpose; provided, however, that interest may at the option of the Company be paid by check mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register (including the records of any Security Co-Registrar). Such payments will be made in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.
SECTION 2.02. The aggregate principal amount of Securities which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited. The Securities shall be subordinated in right of payment, to Senior Indebtedness as provided in Article Fifteen.
The Securities may be issued in one or more series. There shall be established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, and set forth in an Officers' Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, prior to the issuance of Securities of any series:

(b) any limit upon the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of the series which may be outstanding under this Indenture (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.06, 2.08, 4.02 or 13.05);
(c) the date or dates on which the principal of the Securities of the series is payable;

10
(d) the rate or rates at which the Securities of the series shall bear interest, if any, or the method by which such rate or rates shall be determined, the date or dates from which such interest shall accrue, or the method by which such date or dates shall be determined, the interest payment dates on which such interest shall be payable and the record dates for the determination of holders to whom interest is payable;
(e) the place or places where the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on Securities of the series shall be payable;
(f) the price or prices at which, the period or periods within which and the terms and conditions upon which Securities of the series may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, if the Company is to have that option;
(g) the obligation, if any, of the Company to redeem, purchase or repay Securities of the series pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous provisions or at the option of a holder thereof and the price or prices at which the period or periods within which and the terms and conditions upon which Securities of the series shall be redeemed, purchased or repaid, in whole or in part, pursuant to such obligation;
(h) if other than denominations of $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof, the denominations in which Securities of the series shall be issuable;
(i) if other than the principal amount thereof, the portion of the principal amount of the Securities of the series which shall be payable upon declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.02;
(j) the issuance of the Securities of such series in whole or in part in global form and, if so, the identity of the Depositary for such Securities in global form, and the terms and conditions, if any, upon which interests in such Securities in global form may be exchanged, in whole or in part, for the individual Securities represented thereby;
(k) any deletions from, modifications of or additions to the events of default or covenants of the Company with respect to any of such Securities, whether or not such events of default or covenants are consistent with the events of default or covenants set forth herein;

(m) if the Securities of the series will be convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or other securities of the Company and, if so, the terms and conditions upon which such Securities will be so convertible or exchangeable; and

11
All Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and except as may otherwise be provided by or pursuant to such Board Resolution, and set forth in such Officers' Certificate, or in any such indenture supplemental hereto. If any of the terms of a series of Securities are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of such Board Resolution shall be delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers' Certificate setting forth the terms of such series. All Securities of any one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise so provided by the Company, a series may be reopened for issuances of additional Securities of such series or to establish additional terms of such series of Securities.
SECTION 2.03. The Securities shall be signed in the name and on behalf of the Company by the manual or facsimile signature of its Chairman of the Board of Directors, its President or one of its Vice Presidents, under its corporate seal (which may be printed, engraved or otherwise reproduced thereon, by facsimile or otherwise) which shall be attested by the manual or facsimile signature of its Secretary, or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The Securities shall then be delivered to the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent for authentication by it, and thereupon, as provided herein, the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Securities shall cease to be such officer of the Company before the Securities so signed shall have been actually authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, such Securities may nevertheless be issued, authenticated and delivered as though the person who signed such Securities had not ceased to be such officer of the Company; and also any of the Securities may be signed on behalf of the Company by any person who at the time of the execution of such Securities shall be the proper officer of the Company, even though at the date of the execution of this Indenture such person may not have been such officer of the Company.
SECTION 2.04. Only such of the Securities as shall bear thereon a certificate substantially in the form of the Trustee's certificate of authentication hereinafter recited, executed by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, shall be valid or become obligatory for any purpose or entitle the holder thereof to any right or benefit under this Indenture, and the certificate of authentication by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent upon any such Security executed on behalf of the Company as aforesaid shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that the Security so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the holder thereof is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

12
The Trustee's certificate of authentication on all Securities shall be in substantially the following form:
This is one of the Securities issued under the Indenture described herein.
Wachovia Bank, National Association, as Trustee
By___________________________________________ Authorized Signatory
or (if an Authenticating Agent is appointed pursuant to Section 10.10)
Wachovia Bank, National Association, as Trustee
By (Name of Agent) as Authenticating Agent
By___________________________________________ Authorized Signatory
SECTION 2.05. The Company shall cause to be kept a register (herein sometimes referred to as the "Security Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. Unless and until otherwise determined by the Company, by Board Resolution, the Security Register initially shall be kept at the Principal Office of the Trustee. The Trustee is hereby appointed "Security Registrar" for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. The Company may appoint one or more "Security Co-Registrars" for such purpose. The Security Registrar and any Security Co-Registrars are herein sometimes referred to, and are appointed as, the "Security Registrar".
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at any office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 5.02 for such purpose or at the office of any Security Co-Registrar, the Company shall execute and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver a Security or Securities of such series for a like aggregate principal amount, in such authorized denomination or denominations and registered in such name or names as may be requested. The transfer of any security shall not be

13
valid as against the Company or the Trustee unless registered at such offices or agency by the registered holder, or by his attorney duly authorized in writing.
Securities of any series in their several authorized denominations are exchangeable for a Security or Securities of such series in authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount. Securities to be exchanged as aforesaid shall be surrendered for that purpose by the registered holder thereof at such offices or agency, and the Company shall execute and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor the Security or Securities in such authorized denomination or denominations as the Securityholder making the exchange shall have requested and shall be entitled to receive. The Company shall not be required to make any exchange or effect registration of transfer of (i) any Security which shall have been designated for redemption in whole or in part except, in the case of any Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not so to be redeemed, or (ii) any Security for a period of 15 days next preceding any selection of Securities for redemption.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for the individual Securities represented thereby, in definitive form, a Security in global form representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor Depositary.
All Securities presented or surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange or payment shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee or any Security Registrar or Security Co-Registrar or any Authenticating Agent) be duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer (in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar or any Security Co-Registrar) duly executed by, the registered holder or by his attorney duly authorized in writing.
If at any time the Depositary for the Securities of a series represented by one or more Securities in global form notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Securities of such series or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities of such series shall no longer be eligible under Section 2.01, the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the Securities of such series. If a successor Depositary for the Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company's election pursuant to Section 2.02 that such Securities be represented by one or more Securities in global form shall no longer be effective with respect to the Securities of such series and the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series in definitive form, in authorized denominations, in an aggregate principal amount and like terms and tenor equal to the principal amount of the Security or Securities in global form representing such series in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form.

14
The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that individual Securities of any series issued in global form shall no longer be represented by such Security or Securities in global form. In such event the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series and of the same terms and tenor, will authenticate and deliver Securities of such series in definitive form, in authorized denominations, and in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Security or Securities in global form representing such series in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form.
If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 2.02 with respect to a series of Securities issued in global form, the Depositary for such series of Securities may surrender a Security in global form for such series of Securities in exchange in whole or in part for Securities of such series in definitive form and of like terms and tenor on such terms as are acceptable to the Company and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee upon receipt of a Company order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, shall authenticate and deliver, without service charge to the holders:
(a) to each person specified by such Depositary a new definitive Security or Securities of the same series and of the same tenor, in authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for such person's beneficial interest in the Security in global form; and
(b) to such Depositary a new Security in global form in a denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered Security in global form and the aggregate principal amount of the definitive Securities delivered to holders pursuant to clause (a) above.
Upon the exchange of a Security in global form for Securities in definitive form, such Security in global form shall be cancelled by the Trustee or an agent of the Company or the Trustee. Securities issued in definitive form in exchange for a Security in global form pursuant to this
Section 2.05 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Security in global form, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee or an agent of the Company or the Trustee in writing. The Trustee or such agent shall deliver such Securities to or as directed by the persons in whose names such Securities are so registered or to the Depositary.
Whenever any securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities, which the holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any applicable tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Company and the Trustee, and the agents of either, may deem and treat the person in whose name any Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security (whether

15
or not such Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon) for all purposes whatsoever (subject to the provisions set forth herein relating to Record Dates and record dates for the payment of any defaulted interest), and the Company and the Trustee, and the agents of either, shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
None of the Company, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Security in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interest and each of them may act or refrain from acting without liability on any information relating to such records provided by the Depositary.
SECTION 2.06. In case any temporary or definitive Security of a particular series shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, then upon the conditions hereinafter set forth the Company in its discretion may execute, and thereupon the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, a new Security of the same series of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a different number, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Security or in lieu of and substitution for the Security so destroyed, lost or stolen; provided, however, that if any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall have become payable upon the maturity thereof, the Company may, instead of issuing a substitute Security, pay such Security without requiring the surrender thereof. The applicant for any substitute Security or for payment of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall furnish to the Company and to the Trustee evidence satisfactory to them, in their discretion, of the ownership of and the destruction, loss or theft of such Security and shall furnish to the Company and to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to them, in their discretion, and, if required, shall reimburse the Company and the Trustee for all expenses (including counsel fees and any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto) in connection with the preparation, issue and authentication of such substitute Security or the payment of such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, and shall comply with such other reasonable regulations as the Company and the Trustee, or either of them, may prescribe. Any such new Security delivered pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall constitute an additional contractual obligation on the part of the Company, whether or not the allegedly destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be equally and proportionately entitled to the benefit of this Indenture with all other Securities of the same series issued hereunder. All Securities shall be held and owned upon the express condition that, to the extent permitted by law, the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies.
SECTION 2.07. Subject to the provisions set forth herein relating to Record Dates and record dates for the payment of any defaulted interest, each Security delivered pursuant to any provision of this Indenture in exchange or substitution for, or upon registration of transfer of, any other Security shall carry all the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

16
SECTION 2.08. Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series the Company may execute and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver temporary Securities of such series (printed or lithographed). Temporary Securities shall be issuable in any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the definitive Securities but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Securities, all as may be determined by the Company. In the case of Securities of any series, such temporary Securities may be in global form, representing all of the Outstanding Securities of such series and tenor. Every such temporary Security of a particular series shall be authenticated by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the definitive Securities of such series. Without unreasonable delay, and except in the case of temporary Securities in global form which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions thereof, the Company will execute and deliver to the Trustee definitive Securities of such series and thereupon any or all temporary Securities of such series may be surrendered in exchange for definitive Securities of the same series, at the Principal Office of the Trustee or any office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 5.02 for such purpose or at the office of any Security Co-Registrar, and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Securities an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series. Such exchange shall be made by the Company at its own expense and without any charge therefor except that the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of a particular series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of the same series authenticated and delivered hereunder.
ARTICLE THREE
ISSUE OF SECURITIES
SECTION 3.01. At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent for authentication. The Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall thereupon authenticate and deliver such Securities to or upon the written order of the Company, signed by its Chairman of the Board of Directors, its President or a Vice President, without any further action by the Company. In authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 315 of the Trust Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon:

17
(a) a Board Resolution relating thereto and, if applicable, an appropriate record of any action taken pursuant to such resolution, certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company;
(b) an executed supplemental indenture, if any;
(c) an Officers' Certificate; and
(d) an Opinion of Counsel prepared in accordance with Section 14.03, which shall state
(1) that the form and terms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions, by a supplemental indenture as permitted by
Section 13.01(f), or by both such resolution or resolutions and such supplemental indenture, in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;
(2) that the supplemental indenture, if any, when executed and delivered by the Company and the Trustee, will constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company;
(3) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, and will be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture;
(4) that the Company has the corporate power to issue such Securities, and has duly taken all necessary corporate action with respect to such issuance;
(5) that the issuance of such Securities will not contravene the charter or by-laws of the Company or result in any violation of any of the terms or provisions of any law or regulation or of any indenture, mortgage or other agreement by which the Company is bound and under which long-term debt of the Company as reflected in its latest financial statements on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission is outstanding; and
(6) that all requirements of this Indenture applicable to the Company in respect of the execution and delivery by the Company of such Securities and of such supplemental indenture, if any, have been complied with and that, assuming (a) all requisite corporate authorization on the part of the Trustee, (b) continued compliance by the Trustee with the terms of the Indenture specifically applicable to the Trustee, and (c) due authentication and delivery of such Securities by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, if any, will not violate the terms of this Indenture, and that, other than compliance with federal and state securities laws, no authorization,

18
approval or consent by any regulatory or statutory or other public authority is required in connection with the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture or for the creation, issuance, authentication and delivery of the Securities pursuant to this Indenture.
If not all the Securities of any series are to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver an Opinion of Counsel at the time of issuance of each Security, but such opinion with appropriate modifications shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the first Security of such series.
If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 2.02 that Securities of a series may be issued in whole or in part in global form, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section and the Company order of authentication with respect to such series, authenticate and deliver one or more Securities in global form that (i) shall represent and shall be denominated in an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series and tenor to be represented by one or more Securities in global form, (ii) shall be registered, in the name of the Depositary for such Security or Securities in global form or the nominee of such Depositary, (iii) shall be delivered to such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary's instruction, and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect: "Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation ("DTC") to Issuer or its agent for transfer, exchange or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein." Each Depositary designated pursuant to Section 2.02 for a Security in global form must, at the time of its designation and at all times while it serves as Depositary, be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and any other applicable statute or regulation.
The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities under this Section if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.
Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.
ARTICLE FOUR
REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES; SINKING FUND
SECTION 4.01. Redemption of Securities (other than pursuant to a sinking fund or analogous provision) permitted by the terms of any series of Securities shall be made in accordance with such terms and Sections 4.02 and 4.03; provided, however, that if any such

19
terms of a series of Securities shall conflict with any provision of this Article, the terms of such series shall govern.
SECTION 4.02. The election of the Company to redeem any Securities of any series shall be evidenced by or pursuant to a Board Resolution. If the Company shall elect to redeem the Securities of any series in whole or in part as aforesaid, it shall fix a date for redemption and give notice of its election so to redeem by mailing or causing to be mailed written notice, postage prepaid, at least 30 days prior to the redemption date, to all holders of Securities to be redeemed as a whole or in part, addressed to them at their respective addresses as the same shall then appear on the Security Register of the Company. Any notice which shall be mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder shall receive such notice. Failure to mail such notice, or any defect in the notice mailed, to the holder of any Security designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Security.
Each notice of redemption shall state such election on the part of the Company, the Redemption Date and place of payment of the Securities to be redeemed and the Redemption Price and that the Securities designated in such notice for redemption are required to be presented on or after such Redemption Date and at such place for payment and that interest to the Redemption Date on the Securities and portions of Securities called for redemption will be paid as specified in said notice and shall cease to accrue thereon on such date. If less than all the outstanding Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the notice shall also designate the Securities or portions of Securities that are to be redeemed. If any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice shall also state that upon presentation of such Security on or after the redemption date at said place, such Security will be canceled and a new Security or Securities of the same series, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of such Security, will be issued and delivered without charge to the holder.
Notice having been so given, the Securities and portions of Securities to be redeemed shall on the Redemption Date specified in such notice become due and payable at the applicable Redemption Price, together with interest accrued thereon to the Redemption Date, and from and after the Redemption Date so specified (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price of such Securities or any such accrued interest) interest on such Securities and portions of Securities shall cease to accrue, and upon presentation of such Securities at said place of payment and redemption in accordance with said notice, such Securities and portions of Securities shall be paid by the Company at the applicable Redemption Price, together with interest accrued to the Redemption Date (except that, if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date, the interest payable on such date shall be paid to the registered holders of such Securities at the close of business on the applicable Record Date, subject to the provisions of Section 2.01).
If the Company shall at any time elect to redeem less than all the Securities of a series then outstanding, it shall at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) notify the Trustee of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed, and thereupon the Trustee shall select, in such manner as the Trustee shall deem appropriate and fair, the Securities (or portions thereof) of such series to be redeemed. No

20
Security of a denomination of $1,000 shall be redeemed in part and Securities may be redeemed in part only in integral multiples of $1,000. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities and portions of Securities so selected.
SECTION 4.03. If Securities of any Series at the time outstanding are to be redeemed under circumstances to which Section 11.02 is applicable, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee (1) proof satisfactory to the Trustee that notice of redemption thereof on a specified redemption date has been given as hereinbefore provided, or (2) proof satisfactory to the Trustee that arrangements have been made insuring to the satisfaction of the Trustee that such notice will be so given, or (3) a written instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee executed by the Company under its corporate seal, and expressed to be irrevocable, authorizing the Trustee to give such notice for and on behalf of the Company.
SECTION 4.04. Redemption of Securities permitted or required pursuant to a sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series by the terms of such series of Securities shall be made in accordance with such terms of such series of Securities and this Article; provided, however, that if any such terms of a series of Securities shall conflict with any provision of this Article, the terms of such series shall govern.
The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a "Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment", and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an "Optional Sinking Fund Payment". If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 4.05.
SECTION 4.05. The Company may, at its option, satisfy any Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation, in whole or in part, with respect to a particular series of Securities by (1) delivering to the Trustee outstanding Securities of such series in transferable form theretofore purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company or redeemed at the election of the Company pursuant to Section 4.01 or (2) receiving credit for Securities of such series (not previously so credited) acquired by the Company and theretofore delivered to the Trustee. The Trustee shall credit such Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation with an amount equal to the redemption price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment shall be reduced accordingly. If the Company shall elect so to satisfy any Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation, it shall deliver to the Trustee not less than 45 days prior to the relevant sinking fund payment date a written notice signed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board of Directors, its President, one of its Vice Presidents, its Treasurer or one of its Assistant Treasurers, which shall designate the Securities (and portions thereof, if any) to be so delivered or credited and which shall be accompanied by such Securities (to the extent not theretofore delivered) in transferable form. In case of the failure of the Company, at or before the time so required, to give such notice and deliver such Securities, the Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation shall be paid entirely in cash.

21
SECTION 4.06. In addition to the sinking fund requirements of
Section 4.05, to the extent, if any, provided for by the terms of a particular series of Securities, the Company may, at its option, make an Optional Sinking Fund Payment with respect to such Securities. Unless otherwise provided by such terms, (a) to the extent that the right of the Company to make such Optional Sinking Fund Payment shall not be exercised in any year, it shall not be cumulative or carried forward to any subsequent year, and (b) such optional payment shall operate to reduce the amount of any Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation as to Securities of the same series. If the Company intends to exercise its right to make such optional payment in any year it shall deliver to the Trustee not less than 45 days prior to the relevant sinking fund payment date a certificate signed by its Chairman of the Board of Directors, its President, one of its Vice Presidents, its Treasurer or one of its Assistant Treasurers stating that the Company will exercise such optional right, and specifying the amount which the Company will pay on or before the next succeeding sinking fund payment date. Such certificate shall also state that no event of default has occurred and is continuing.
SECTION 4.07. If the sinking fund payment or payments made in funds pursuant to either Section 4.05 or 4.06 with respect to a particular series of Securities plus any unused balance of any preceding sinking fund payments made in funds with respect to such series shall exceed $50,000 (or a lesser sum if the Company shall so request), it shall be applied by the Trustee on the sinking fund payment date next following the date of such payment, unless the date of such payment shall be a sinking fund payment date, in which case such payment shall be applied on such sinking fund payment date, to the redemption of Securities of such series at the redemption price specified pursuant to Section 4.04. The Trustee shall select in the manner provided in
Section 4.02, for redemption on such sinking fund payment date, a sufficient principal amount of Securities of such sinking fund payment date, a sufficient principal amount of Securities of such series to absorb said funds, as nearly as may be, and shall, at the expense and in the name of the Company, thereupon cause notice of redemption of the Securities to be given in substantially the manner provided in Section 4.02 for the redemption of Securities in part at the option of the Company, except that the notice of redemption shall also state that the Securities are being redeemed for the sinking fund. Any sinking fund moneys not so applied by the Trustee to the redemption of Securities of such series shall be added to the next sinking fund payment received in funds by the Trustee and, together with such payment, shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.07. Any and all sinking fund moneys held by the Trustee on the last sinking fund payment date with respect to Securities of such series, and not held for the payment or redemption of particular Securities of such series, shall be applied by the Trustee to the payment of the principal of the Securities of such series at Maturity.
On or prior to each sinking fund payment date, the Company shall pay to the Trustee a sum equal to all unpaid interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption on Securities to be redeemed on such sinking fund payment date pursuant to this Section 4.07.
The Trustee shall not redeem any Securities of a series with sinking fund moneys or mail any notice of redemption of Securities of such series by operation of the sinking fund during the continuance of a default in payment of interest on any Securities of such series or of any event of default (other than an event of default occurring as a consequence of this paragraph) of which the Trustee has actual knowledge, except that if the notice of redemption of any

22
Securities of such series shall theretofore have been mailed in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Trustee shall redeem such Securities if funds sufficient for that purpose shall be deposited with the Trustee in accordance with the terms of this Article Four. Except as aforesaid, any moneys in the sinking fund at the time any such default or event of default shall occur and any moneys thereafter paid into the sinking fund shall, during the continuance of such default or event of default, be held as security for the payment of all the Securities of such series; provided, however, that in case such default or event of default shall have been cured or waived as provided herein, such moneys shall thereafter be applied on the next sinking fund payment date on which such moneys are required to be applied pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.07.
ARTICLE FIVE
PARTICULAR COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY
The Company hereby covenants and agrees as follows:
SECTION 5.01. The Company will duly and punctually pay the principal of and premium, if any, on each of the Securities, and the interest which shall have accrued hereon, at the date and place and in the manner provided in the Securities and in this Indenture, and will duly comply with all other terms, agreements and conditions contained in, or made in this Indenture for the benefit of, the Securities.
SECTION 5.02. The Company will maintain in the city in the United States in which the Company has its principal business office and in The City of New York, and may maintain elsewhere, an office or agency where Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities may be surrendered for transfer or exchange, where Securities of that series which are convertible may be surrendered for conversion, if applicable, and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of any such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain such required office or agency, or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Principal Office of the Trustee. The Company hereby initially appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.
The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for any or all of such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation shall in any manner result in the creation of a Security Register or Security Co-Registrar in addition to the Security Register required to be kept pursuant to Section 2.05 and any Security Co-Registrar appointed pursuant to Section 2.05. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation and any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

SECTION 5.03. If the Company shall at any time act as its own paying agent with respect to any series of Securities, then, on or before the date on which the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of that series by their terms or as a result of the calling thereof for redemption shall become payable, the Company will set apart and segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the holders of such Securities a sum sufficient to pay such principal and premium, if any, or interest which shall have so become payable and will notify the Trustee of its failure to act in that regard and of any failure by the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series to make any such payment. If the Company shall appoint, and at the time have, a paying agent for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on any series of Securities, then, on or before the date on which the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of that series shall become payable as aforesaid, whether by their terms or as a result of the calling thereof for redemption, the Company will pay to such paying agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal and premium, if any, or interest, to be held in trust for the benefit of the holders of such Securities. If such paying agent shall be other than the Trustee, the Company will cause such paying agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such paying agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 5.03 and of Section 11.03, (1) that such paying agent shall hold all sums held by such paying agent for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on the Securities of that series in trust for the benefit of the holders of such Securities; (2) that such paying agent shall give to the Trustee notice of any default by the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series in the making of any payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on the Securities of that series when the same shall have become due and payable; and (3) that such paying agent shall, at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, deliver to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by it.
Anything in this Section 5.03 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a release or satisfaction of this Indenture or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee all sums held in trust by it or by any paying agent other than the Trustee as required by this Section 5.03, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such paying agent.
Any money deposited with the Trustee or any paying agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such paying agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such paying agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each business day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

24
SECTION 5.04. Subject to Section 5.05, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and that of each Subsidiary and the rights and franchises of the Company as necessary or desirable in the normal conduct of its business; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve the corporate existence of any Subsidiary if the Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and the other Subsidiaries taken as a whole.
SECTION 5.05. The Company will not consolidate with any other corporation or accept a merger of any other corporation into the Company or permit the Company to be merged into any other corporation, or sell or lease all or substantially all its assets to another corporation, or purchase all or substantially all the assets of another corporation, unless (i) either the Company shall be the continuing corporation, or the successor, transferee or lessee corporation (if other than the Company) shall be organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia and shall expressly assume, by indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered by such corporation prior to or simultaneously with such consolidation, merger, sale or lease, the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest and premium, if any, on all the Securities, according to their tenor, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed or observed by the Company, and (ii) immediately after such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or purchase the Company or the successor, transferee or lessee corporation (if other than the Company) would not be in default in the performance of any covenant or condition of this Indenture. A purchase by a Subsidiary of all or substantially all of the assets of another corporation shall not be deemed to be a purchase of such assets by the Company.
SECTION 5.06. The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a written statement signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the President, the Principal Financial Officer or Principal Accounting Officer or the Treasurer or Controller of the Company, stating that
(a) a review of the activities of the Company during such year with regard to its compliance with this Indenture has been made under his supervision, and
(b) to the best of his knowledge, based on such review, the Company has fulfilled all its obligations under this Indenture throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to him and the nature and status thereof.
SECTION 5.07. Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may fail or omit in any particular instance to comply with a covenant or condition set forth in
Section 5.04 or 5.05 with respect to any series of Securities if the Company shall have obtained and filed with the Trustee, prior to the time of such failure or omission, evidence (as provided in Article Seven) of the consent of the holders of at least 66 2/3% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series at the time outstanding, either waiving such compliance in such instance or generally waiving compliance with such covenant

25
or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not waived by the terms of such waiver or impair any right consequent thereon.
ARTICLE SIX

Except where otherwise indicated by the context or where the term is otherwise defined for a specific purpose, the term "event of default" as used in this Indenture with respect to Securities of any series shall mean one of the following described events (whatever the reason for such event of default and whether or not it shall be occasioned by the provisions of Article Fifteen) unless it is either inapplicable to a particular series or it is specifically deleted or modified in the supplemental indenture, if any, under which such series of Securities is issued:
(a) the failure of the Company to pay any installment of interest on any Security of such series, when and as the same shall become payable, which failure shall have continued unremedied for a period of 30 days;
(b) the failure of the Company to pay the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Security of such series, when and as the same shall become payable, whether at maturity as therein expressed, by call for redemption (otherwise than pursuant to a sinking fund), by declaration as authorized by this Indenture or otherwise;

Section 5.07, to observe and perform any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Company contained in this Indenture (other than a covenant or agreement which has been expressly included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of a series of Securities other than that series), which failure shall not have been remedied to the satisfaction of the Trustee, or without provision deemed by the Trustee to be adequate for the remedying thereof having been made, for a period of 90 days after written notice shall have been given to the Company by the Trustee or shall have been given to the Company and the Trustee by holders of 25% or more in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series then outstanding, specifying such failure and requiring the Company to remedy the same;
(e) an event of default, as defined in any mortgage, indenture or instrument, including this Indenture, under which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any indebtedness for money borrowed of the Company, whether such indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created, shall happen and shall result in such indebtedness in an amount in excess of $25,000,000 becoming or being declared due

26
and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise become due and payable, and such acceleration shall not have been rescinded or annulled, or such indebtedness shall not have been discharged, within a period of 10 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series a written notice specifying such event of default and requiring the Company to cause such acceleration to be rescinded or annulled or to cause such indebtedness to be discharged;
(f) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee or sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or for substantially all of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, which decree or order shall have remained unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days;
(g) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or the consent by the Company to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or the consent by the Company to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian or sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or for substantially all of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or
(h) the occurrence of any other event of default with respect to Securities of such series as provided in an Officers' Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.02 or a supplemental indenture applicable to such series of Securities pursuant to Section 13.01(b).
The Trustee shall be deemed to have knowledge of an event of default only upon receipt of written notice by a corporate trust officer of the Trustee.
SECTION 6.02. If any one or more of the above-described events of default (other than those specified in clause (f) or (g) of Section 6.02) occurs with respect to Securities of any series at the time outstanding, then, and in each and every such case, during the continuance of any such event of default, the Trustee or the holders of 25% or more in principal amount of the Securities of such series then outstanding may declare the principal of all the Securities of such series then outstanding, if not then due and payable, to be due and payable, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and be immediately due and payable, anything contained in this Indenture or in the Securities of such series to the contrary notwithstanding.
If the event of default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) occurs, all unpaid principal of and accrued interest on the outstanding Securities of that series (or such lesser

27
amount as may be provided for in the Securities of such series) shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holder of any Security of that series.
At any time after Securities of any series have been accelerated and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of such series then outstanding may, on behalf of the holders of all the Securities of such series, waive the event of default by reason of which the principal of the Securities of such series shall have been so declared to be due and payable, and may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:
(1) (a) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum of money sufficient to pay:
(i) the principal of all the Securities of such series declared to be due and payable, all arrears of interest, if any, upon all the Securities of such series (with interest, to the extent that interest thereon shall be legally enforceable, on any overdue installment of interest at the rate borne by the Securities of such series), and
(ii) the reasonable charges and expenses of the Trustee and its agents and attorneys and all other sums payable under this Indenture (except the principal of the Securities of such series, which would not be due and payable were it not for such declaration), or
(b) provisions deemed by the Trustee or by the holders of a majority in principal aggregate amount of the Securities of such series then outstanding to be adequate therefor shall have been made; and
(2) all events of default with respect to Securities of such series other than the non-payment of the principal of, any premium and interest on, and any such sums of money with respect to Securities of such series, which shall have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, shall have been cured or waived as provided in this Section 6.02, but no such waiver, rescission or annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent default or event of default, or impair any right consequent thereon.
Any declaration by the Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be by written notice to the Company, and any declaration or waiver by the holders of Securities of any series pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be by written notice to the Company and the Trustee.
The Company and the Trustee may, to the extent provided in
Section 13.01, enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, with respect to any series of the Securities, which may provide for additional or different events of default with respect to such series of Securities.
SECTION 6.03. If the Company shall fail for a period of 30 days to pay any installment of interest on the Securities of any series or shall fail to pay the principal of and

28
premium, if any, on any of the Securities of such series, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at Maturity, or by call for redemption (otherwise than pursuant to the sinking fund) by declaration as authorized by this Indenture, or otherwise, or shall fail for a period of 30 days to make any sinking fund payment as to a series of Securities, then, upon demand by the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the holders of Securities of such series then outstanding, the whole amount which shall then have become due and payable on all the Securities of such series, with interest on the overdue principal and premium, if any, and (so far as the same may be legally enforceable) on the overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Securities of such series, and reasonable compensation to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys, and any other reasonable expenses and liabilities incurred by the Trustee under this Indenture without negligence or bad faith.
In case the Company shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any action or proceeding, at law or in equity, for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series, and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series, of the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series, wherever situated, in the manner provided by law. Every recovery of judgment in any such action or other proceeding (subject to the payment of the expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Trustee, its agents and attorneys) shall be for the ratable benefit of the holders of such series of Securities which shall be the subject of such action or proceeding. All rights of action upon or under any of the Securities or this Indenture may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities and without the production of any thereof at any trial or any proceeding relative thereto.
SECTION 6.04. The Trustee is hereby appointed, and each and every holder of the Securities, by receiving and holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed to have appointed the Trustee the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of such holder, with authority (whether or not the Company shall be in default in respect of the payment of the principal of, or interest on, any of the Securities) to make or file, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, or otherwise as it shall deem advisable, in any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities, or to their respective creditors or property, any and all claims, proofs of claim, proofs of debt, petitions, consents, other papers and documents, and amendments of any thereof, as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and of the holders of the Securities allowed in any such proceeding, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim, and to execute and deliver any and all other papers and documents and to do and perform any and all other acts and things as it may deem necessary or advisable, in order to enforce in any such proceeding any of the claims of the Trustee and of any of such holders in respect of any of the Securities; and any receiver, assignee, trustee, custodian or debtor in any such proceeding is hereby authorized, and each and every holder of the Securities, by receiving and holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed to have authorized any such receiver, assignee, trustee, custodian or debtor to make any such payment or delivery only to, or on the order of, the Trustee, and to pay to the Trustee any amount due if for

29
compensation and expenses, including counsel fees, incurred by it to the date of such payment or delivery; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize or empower the Trustee to consent to or accept or adopt, on behalf of any holder of Securities, any plan of reorganization or readjustment of the Company affecting the Securities or the rights of any holder thereof, or to authorize or empower the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any holder of any Securities in any such proceeding.
SECTION 6.05. Any moneys collected by the Trustee with respect to a series of Securities under this Article Six shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such moneys, upon presentation of the several Securities and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:
First: To the payment of all costs and expenses in connection with the collection of such moneys, and all amounts due to the Trustee under Section 10.05.
Second: In case the principal of the outstanding Securities of such series shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of interest on the Securities of such series, in the order of the maturity of the installments of such interest, with interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon the overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by such Securities, such payments to be made ratably to the persons entitled thereto.
Third: In case the principal of the outstanding Securities of such series shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon the Securities of such series for principal and premium, if any, and interest, with interest on the overdue principal and premium, if any, and (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) interest upon overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Securities of such series, and in case such moneys shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amounts so due and unpaid upon the Securities of such series, then to the payment of such principal and premium, if any, and interest without preference or priority of principal and premium, if any, over interest, or of interest over principal and premium, if any, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Security of such series over any other Security of such series, ratable to the aggregate of such principal and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest.
Any surplus then remaining shall be paid to the Company or to such other persons as shall be entitled to receive it.
SECTION 6.06. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee hereunder, or of exercising any trust or power hereby conferred upon the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series; provided, however, that, subject to the provisions of Section 10.02, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee being advised by counsel determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken. Prior to any declaration accelerating the Maturity of

30
the Securities of any series, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such series of Securities at the time outstanding may on behalf of the holders of all of the Securities of such series waive any past default or event of default hereunder and its consequences except a default in the payment of interest or any premium on or the principal of the Securities of such series. Upon any such waiver the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Securities of such series shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or event of default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any default or event of default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this
Section 6.06, said default or event of default shall for all purposes of the Securities of such series and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing.
SECTION 6.07. No holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity for the execution of any trust hereunder or for the appointment of a receiver or for any other remedy hereunder, in each case with respect to an event of default with respect to such series of Securities, unless such holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of the happening of one or more of the events of default herein specified with respect to such series of Securities, and unless the holders of 25% in principal amount of the Securities of such series then outstanding shall have requested the Trustee in writing to take action in respect of the matter complained of, and unless there shall have been furnished to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for 60 days after receipt of such notification, request and furnishing of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding; such notification, request and furnishing of indemnity are hereby declared in every such case to be conditions precedent to any such action, suit or proceeding by any holder of any Security of such series; it being understood and intended that no one or more of the holders of Securities of such series shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by his or their action to enforce any right hereunder, except in the manner herein provided, and that every action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity shall be instituted, and maintained in the manner herein provided, for the equal benefit of all holders of the outstanding Securities of such series; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Indenture or in the Securities of such series shall affect or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of such series to the respective holders of such Securities at the respective due dates on such Securities stated, or affect or impair the right, which is also absolute and unconditional, of such holders to institute suit to enforce the payment thereof; provided further, that in the event property or assets are conveyed, transferred, assigned, mortgaged or pledged to the Trustee as security for one or more series of Securities, no holder of Securities shall be entitled to take any action or institute any suit to enforce the payment of his Securities, whether for principal, interest or premium, if any, to the extent that the taking of such action or the institution or prosecution of any such suit or the entry of judgment therein would under applicable law result in a surrender, impairment, waiver or loss of the lien of this Indenture, if any, upon the trust estate so created by such conveyance, transfer, assignment, mortgage or pledge, or any part thereof, as security for Securities held by any other holder.
SECTION 6.08. All parties to this Indenture and the holders of the Securities agree that the court may in its discretion require, in any action, suit or proceeding for the

31
enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any action, suit or proceeding against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such action, suit or proceeding of an undertaking to pay the costs of such action, suit or proceeding, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonably attorney's fees, against any party litigant in such action, suit or proceeding, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 6.08 shall not apply to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee, to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by any one or more holders of Securities holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Securities of any series outstanding, or to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by any holder of Securities of any series for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or the interest on any of the Securities of such series, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Securities.
SECTION 6.09. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the holders of Securities of any series is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or remedies, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of the Securities of any series to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default or event of default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or event of default or an acquiescence therein, and every power and remedy given by this Article Six to the Trustee and to the holders of Securities of any series, respectively, may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Trustee or by the holders of Securities of such series, as the case may be. In case the Trustee or any holder of Securities of any series shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and the proceedings for the enforcement thereof shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of waiver or for any other reason or shall have been adjudicated adversely to the Trustee or to such holder of Securities, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Securities of such series shall severally and respectively be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and thereafter all rights, remedies and powers of the Trustee and the holders of the Securities of such series shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken, except as to any matters so waived or adjudicated.
ARTICLE SEVEN
CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS
SECTION 7.01. Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the holders of a specified percentage or a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities or of any series of Securities may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action the holders of such specified percentage or majority have joined therein may be evidenced (a) by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor, executed by Securityholders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing, or (b) by the record of the holders of Securities voting in favor thereof, at any meeting of Securityholders duly called and

32
held in accordance with the provisions of Article Eight, or (c) by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of Securityholders.
SECTION 7.02. Proof of the execution of any instrument by a Securityholder or his agent or proxy and proof of the holding by any person of any of the Securities shall be sufficient if made in the following manner:
The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such instrument may be proved (a) by the certificate of any notary public or other officer in any jurisdiction who, by the laws thereof, has power to take acknowledgements or proof of deeds to be recorded within such jurisdiction, that the person who signed such instrument did acknowledge before such notary public or other officer the execution thereof, or (b) by the affidavit of a witness of such execution sworn to before any such notary or other officer. Where such execution is by a person acting in other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority.
The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register of such Securities or by a certificate of the Security Registrar thereof.
The Trustee may accept such other proof or may require such additional proof of any matter referred to in this Section 7.02 as it shall deem appropriate or necessary.
SECTION 7.03. In determining whether the holders of the requisite principal amount of the Securities have concurred in any direction, request, waiver or consent under this Indenture, Securities which are owned by the Company or by any other obligor on the Securities or by any person directly or indirectly controlling, or controlled by, or under direct or indirect common control with, the Company or any such other obligor shall be disregarded, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, request, waiver or consent, only Securities which the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be disregarded. Securities so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding for the purposes of this Section 7.03 if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right to vote such Securities, and that the pledgee is not a person directly or indirectly controlling, or controlled by, or under direct or indirect common control with, the Company or any such other obligor. In case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee.
SECTION 7.04. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 7.01, of the taking of any action by the holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities or of any series of Securities specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any holder of a Security which is shown by the evidence to be included in the Securities the holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at its Principal Office and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 7.02, revoke such action so far as concerns such Security. Except as aforesaid, any such action taken by the holder of any Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders and owners of such Security, irrespective of

33
whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Security or any Security issued in exchange or substitution therefor.
ARTICLE EIGHT

Notice of every meeting of the Securityholders of a series, setting forth the time and the place of such meeting and in general terms the action proposed to be taken at such meeting, shall be mailed to holders of Securities of such series at their addresses as they shall appear on the Security Register (including the records of any Security Co-Registrar). Such notice shall be mailed not less than 20 nor more than 90 days prior to the date fixed for the meeting.
SECTION 8.03.

34
SECTION 8.04. To be entitled to vote at any meeting of Securityholders a person shall (a) be a holder of one or more Securities of a series affected by the action proposed to be taken at the meeting or (b) be a person appointed by an instrument in writing as proxy by a holder of one or more such Securities.

SECTION 8.05. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for any meeting of Securityholders, in regard to proof of the holding of Securities and of the appointment of proxies, and in regard to the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and examination of proxies, certificates and other evidence of the right to vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting as it shall think fit.
The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have been called by the Company or by Securityholders as provided in Section 8.03, in which case the Company or the Securityholders calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like manner appoint a temporary chairman. A permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the meeting shall be elected by majority vote of the meeting.
Subject to the provisions of Section 7.03, at any meeting of Securityholders of a series, each Securityholder of such series or such Securityholder's proxy shall be entitled to one vote for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities of such series outstanding held or represented by him; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in respect of any Security challenged as not outstanding and ruled by the chairman of the meeting to be not outstanding. The chairman of the meeting shall have no right to vote other than by virtue of Securities of such series held by him or instruments in writing as aforesaid duly designating him as the person to vote on behalf of other Securityholders of such series. At any meeting of the Securityholders duly called pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.02 or 8.03, the presence of persons holding or representing Securities in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to take action upon the business for the transaction of which such meeting was called shall be necessary to constitute a quorum, and any such meeting may be adjourned from time to time by a majority of those present, whether or not constituting a quorum, and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice.
SECTION 8.06. The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of Securityholders of a series shall be by written ballots on which shall be subscribed the signatures of the holders of Securities of such series or of their representatives by proxy and the principal amounts of the Securities of such series held or represented by them. The permanent chairman of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count all votes cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make and file with the secretary of the meeting their verified written reports in duplicate of all votes cast at the meeting. A record in duplicate of the proceedings of each meeting of Securityholders shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the original reports of the inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat, and affidavits by one or more persons having knowledge of the facts

35
setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that said notice was mailed as provided in Section 8.02. The record shall show the principal amounts of the Securities voting in favor of or against any resolution. The record shall be signed and verified by the affidavits of the permanent chairman and secretary of the meeting and one of the duplicates shall be delivered to the Company and the other to the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee.
Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated.
SECTION 8.07. Nothing contained in this Article Eight shall be deemed or construed to authorize or permit, by reason of any call of a meeting of Securityholders of any series or any rights expressly or impliedly conferred hereunder to make such call, any hindrance or delay in the exercise of any right or rights conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Securityholders of such series under any of the provisions of this Indenture or of the Securities of such series.

Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law and, subject to Section 11.02 hereof, may be invested in direct obligations of the United States of America in such amounts and with such maturities that will ensure that the principal of such obligations, together with the income thereon (without consideration of any reinvestment thereof) will be sufficient to pay all sums due for principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities, as they become due from time to time.

The obligations of the Company under this Section to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.
SECTION 10.06. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation permitted by the Trust Indenture Act to act as trustee under an indenture qualified under the Trust Indenture Act and that has a combined capital and surplus (computed in accordance with Section 310(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act) of at least $25,000,000. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

(e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series which shall occur only with the express prior written consent of the Company, the Company, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 10.08. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 10.08, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the holders of Securities and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 10.08, any holder of a Security who has been a bona fide holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.
SECTION 10.08. (a) Upon the appointment hereunder of any successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties hereunder of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or such successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee, upon payment of its charges, shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and, subject to Section 5.03, shall duly assign, transfer and

41
deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its claim, if any, provided for in
Section 10.05.
(b) Upon the appointment hereunder of any successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and such successor Trustee shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, such successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust, that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee and that no Trustee shall be responsible for any notice given to, or received by, or any act or failure to act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder, and, upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein, such retiring Trustee shall have no further responsibility for the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates other than as hereinafter expressly set forth, and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or such successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee, upon payment of its charges with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor relates and subject to Section 5.03 shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture, the property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.
(c) Upon request of any person appointed hereunder as a successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be.
(d) No person shall accept its appointment hereunder as a successor Trustee unless at the time of such acceptance such successor person shall be qualified and eligible under this Article.

42
SECTION 10.09. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.
SECTION 10.10. The Trustee may appoint one or more Authenticating Agents acceptable to the Company with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of that or those series issued upon original issue, exchange, registration of transfer, partial redemption or pursuant to Section 2.06, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to THE benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of authentication such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent.
Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and, except as provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, shall at all times be a corporation that would be permitted by the Trust Indenture Act to act as trustee under an indenture qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, is authorized under applicable law and by its charter to act as an Authenticating Agent and has a combined capital and surplus (computed in accordance with Section 310(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act) of at least $5,000,000. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.
Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, provided such Corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.
An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall (i) mail written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such

43
Authenticating Agent shall serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent, upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder, shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.
The provisions of Sections 2.05, 10.02 and 10.03 shall be applicable to each Authenticating Agent.
If all of the Securities of any series may not be originally issued at one time, and if the Trustee does not have an office capable of authenticating Securities upon original issuance located in a place of payment where the Company wishes to have Securities of such series authenticated upon original issuance, the Trustee, if so requested in writing (which writing need not be accompanied by or contained in an Officers' Certificate by the Company), shall appoint in accordance with this Section an Authenticating Agent having an office in a place of payment designated by the Company with respect to such series of Securities.
SECTION 10.11. The Trustee shall, within ninety days after the occurrence of a default with respect to the Securities of any series, mail to all holders of Securities of that series entitled to receive reports pursuant to
Section 9.03, notice of all defaults with respect to that series known to the Trustee, unless such defaults shall have been cured before the giving of such notice; provided, however, that, except in the case of default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of such series or in the making of any sinking fund payment with respect to such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors or trustees, the executive committee, or a trust committee of directors or trustees or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the holders of Securities of such series. For the purpose of this Section, the term "default" means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become, an event of default hereunder.

Section 11.02 and will be subject to Federal income tax in the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such action had not been taken, shall execute and deliver to the Company such instruments as shall be requisite to evidence the satisfaction thereof with respect to Securities of such series. The Trustee shall apply the moneys so deposited solely to the payment to the holders of the Securities of such series of all sums due thereon for principal, premium, if any, and interest, and the Trustee shall have no claim for itself, for fees, expenses or otherwise, to such moneys so deposited. Money and securities held in trust pursuant to this Section 11.02 shall not be subject to Article Fifteen.
SECTION 11.03. Neither the Trustee nor any other paying agent shall be required to pay interest on any moneys deposited pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, except such as it shall agree in writing with the Company to pay thereon. Any moneys so deposited for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after the date of the Maturity of the Securities of such series or the date fixed for the redemption of all the Securities of such series at the time outstanding, as the case may be, shall be repaid by the Trustee or such other paying agent to the Company upon its written request and thereafter, anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, any rights of the holders of Securities of such series in respect of which such moneys shall have been deposited shall be enforceable only against the Company, and all liability of the Trustee or such other paying agent with respect to such moneys shall thereafter cease.
Subject to the provisions of the foregoing paragraph, any moneys which at any time shall be deposited by the Company or on its behalf with the Trustee or any other paying agent for the purpose of paying the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on any of the Securities shall be and are hereby assigned, transferred and set over to the Trustee or such other paying agent in trust for the respective holders of the Securities for the purpose for which such moneys shall have been deposited; but such moneys need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

applicable to fewer than all such series of the Securities, specifying the series to which such change is applicable), and to specify the rights and remedies of the Trustee and the holders of such Securities in connection therewith;
(c) to evidence the succession of another corporation to the Company, the Trustee, or successive successions, and the assumption by a successor, transferee or lessee corporation of the covenants and obligations of the Company or Trustee, as the case may be, contained in the Securities of one or more series or in this Indenture;
(d) to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein or in any indenture supplemental hereto which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture, or to make any other provision in regard to matters or questions arising under this Indenture which the Board of Directors of the Company may deem necessary or desirable and which shall not adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Securities;
(e) to prohibit the authentication and delivery of additional series of Securities;
(f) to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the issuance of Securities in bearer form, registrable or not registrable as to principal and with or without interest coupons;
(g) to establish the form and terms of the Securities of any series as permitted in Sections 2.01 and 2.02, or to authorize the issuance of additional Securities of a series previously authorized or to add to the conditions, limitations or restrictions on the authorized amount, terms or purposes of issue, authentication or delivery of the Securities of any series, as herein set forth, or other conditions, limitations or restrictions thereafter to be observed; and
(h) to modify, alter, amend or supplement this Indenture in any other respect which is not materially adverse to the holders, so long as such change does not require the consent of the holders pursuant to any other provision of this Indenture and is not inconsistent with any other provisions of this Indenture and which, in the judgment of the Trustee, is not to the prejudice of the Trustee and maintains adequate protection to the Trustee when the same becomes operative.
Subject to the provisions of Section 13.03, the Trustee is authorized to join with the Company in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, to make the further agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained and to accept the conveyance, transfer, assignment, mortgage or pledge of any property or assets thereunder.
Any supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of this Section 13.01 may be executed by the Company and the Trustee without the consent of the holders of any of the Securities at the time outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 13.02.

47
SECTION 13.02. With the consent (evidenced as provided in Article Seven) of the holders of not less than 66 2/3 % in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding which are affected by such indenture supplemental hereto, the Company, when authorized by a resolution of its Board of Directors, and the Trustee may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the Securities of any series to be affected; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall (i) extend the fixed maturity of any Securities, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce the amount of the principal thereof, or reduce any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or make the principal thereof or interest or premium thereon payable in any coin or currency other than that provided in the Securities, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the maturity thereof as provided in Section 6.07, or adversely affect the right to convert any Security as may be provided pursuant to Section 2.02 herein, without the consent of the holder of each Security so affected, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities of any series, the holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture, or modify any of the provisions of this Indenture relating to the subordination of the Securities in a manner adverse to the holder thereof, without the consent of the holders of all the Securities then outstanding, or (iii) modify, without the written consent of the Trustee, the rights, duties or immunities of the Trustee.
A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of the holders of Securities of such series with respect to such provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the holders of Securities of any other series.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Securityholders under this Section 13.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.
Promptly after the execution by the Company and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section 13.02, the Company shall mail a notice, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture, to the holders of Securities affected by such supplemental indenture at their addresses as the same shall then appear in the register of the Company. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of said supplemental indenture unless said supplemental indenture affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion but shall not be obligated to, enter into said supplemental indenture.
SECTION 13.04. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article Thirteen, this Indenture shall be and shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the Company and the holders of all of the Securities or of the Securities of any series affected, as the case may be, shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and shall be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.
SECTION 13.05. Securities authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article Thirteen may bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture.

SECTION 13.06. Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to the provisions of this Article Thirteen shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 as then in effect.
SECTION 13.07. No supplemental indenture shall adversely affect the rights of any holder of Senior Indebtedness under Article Fifteen without the consent of such holder.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
SECTION 14.01. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.05, nothing contained in this Indenture or in the Securities shall be deemed to prevent the consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation, or the merger into the Company of any other corporation, or the sale or lease by the Company of its property and assets as, or substantially as, an entirety, or otherwise.
Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale other than for cash or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.05, the corporation formed by such consolidation or into which the Company shall have been merged or to which such sale or lease shall have been made shall succeed to and be substituted for the Company with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a party hereto, and thereafter from time to time such corporation may exercise each and every right and power of the Company under this Indenture, in the name of the Company or in its own name; and any act or proceeding by any provision of this Indenture required or permitted to be done by the Board of Directors or any officer of the Company may be done with like force and effect by the like board or officer of any corporation that shall at the time be the successor of the Company hereunder. In the event of any such sale or conveyance, but not any such lease, the Company (or any successor corporation which shall theretofore have become such in the manner described in Section 5.05) shall be discharged from all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities and may thereupon be dissolved and liquidated.
Anything in this Section 14.01 to the contrary notwithstanding, no such consolidation or merger shall be entered into, and no such conveyance or transfer shall be made, by the Company with or to another corporation or person which has outstanding any obligations secured by a Lien if, as a result thereof, any of the properties of any character owned by the Company immediately prior thereto would be subject to such Lien, unless simultaneously therewith or prior thereto effective provision shall be made to secure all of the Securities equally and ratably with (or prior to) such other secured obligations.
SECTION 14.02. Nothing in this Indenture expressed and nothing that may be implied from any of the provisions hereof is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon, or to give to, any person or corporation other than the parties hereto and their successors and the holders of the Securities any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Indenture or any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise or agreement hereof, and all covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Indenture contained shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and of the holders of the Securities.
SECTION 14.03. As evidence of compliance with the conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture (including any covenants compliance with which constitutes a condition precedent) which relate to the authentication and delivery of the Securities, to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or to any other action to be taken by the Trustee at the request or upon the application of the Company, the Company will furnish to the Trustee an

50
Officers' Certificate, stating that such conditions precedent have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such Counsel such conditions precedent have been complied with. Such Opinion of Counsel may be in the form and contain such assumptions, qualifications and limitations as customarily appear in legal opinions issued in the jurisdiction in which any such opinion of counsel is rendered.
Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include (1) a statement that the person making such certificate or opinion has read such condition or covenant; (2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based; (3) a statement that, in the opinion of such person, such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable the expression of an informed opinion as to whether or not such condition or covenant has been complied with has been made; and (4) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such person, such condition or covenant has been complied with.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture authorizing the Trustee conclusively to rely upon any certificates or opinions, the Trustee, before granting any application by the Company or taking or refraining from taking any other action in reliance thereon, may require any further evidence or make any further investigation as to the facts or matters stated therein which it may, in good faith, deem reasonable in the circumstances, and in connection therewith the Trustee may examine or cause to be examined the pertinent books, records and premises of the Company or of any Subsidiary; and the Trustee shall, in any such case, require such further evidence or make such further investigation as may be requested by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, provided that, if payment to the Trustee of the costs, expenses and liabilities likely to be incurred by it in making such investigation is not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee before making such investigation may require reasonable indemnity against such costs, expenses and liabilities. Any further evidence which may be requested by the Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this paragraph shall be furnished by the Company at its own expense; and any cost, expenses and liabilities incurred by the Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this paragraph shall be paid by the Company, or, if paid by the Trustee, shall be repaid by the Company, upon demand, with interest at the highest rate borne by the Securities, and, until such repayment, shall be secured by a lien on any moneys held by the Trustee hereunder prior to any rights therein of the holders of Securities.
SECTION 14.04. All Securities paid, redeemed, exchanged, surrendered for registration of transfer or retired pursuant to the sinking fund or otherwise shall, if surrendered to the Company or to any paying agent, be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and shall be cancelled by it or, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be cancelled by it, and, except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.07, 4.02, 4.07 and 13.05, no Securities shall be issued under the Indenture in lieu thereof. The Trustee shall make appropriate notations in its records in respect of all such Securities and shall destroy such Securities and deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Company. If the Company shall acquire any of the Securities, however, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation.

51
SECTION 14.05. If any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with any duties under any required provision of the Trust Indenture Act imposed hereon by Section 318(c) thereof, such required provision shall control.
SECTION 14.06. Whenever action is required by this Indenture by the Board of Directors of the Company and there is at the time constituted a committee of the Board of Directors duly authorized to take such action, such action by said committee shall be deemed to be the action of the Board of Directors and shall be sufficient for all purposes of this Indenture where action by the Board of Directors is specified.
SECTION 14.07. Any notice or demand authorized by this Indenture to be given to the Company shall be sufficiently given for all purposes, if it shall be given or made in writing, by hand, telecopier (with confirmation of receipt) or certified or registered mail (confirmation of receipt requested) to the Company addressed to it at 1850 North Central Avenue, Phoenix, Arizona 85077 (telephone: (602) 207-4000; telecopier: (602) 207-5480) to the attention of its Vice President - General Counsel or at such other address as may have been furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company. Any notice, direction, request or demand to or upon the Trustee shall be sufficiently given, for all purposes, if it shall be given or made in writing, by hand, telecopier (with confirmation of receipt) or certified or registered mail (confirmation of receipt requested) to it at 5847 San Felipe, Suite 1050, Houston, Texas 77057 (telephone: (713) 278-4320; telecopier: (713) 278-4329 to the attention of Corporate Trust Group, or at such other address as may have been furnished in writing to the Company by the Trustee. Any notice required or permitted to be given to Securityholders shall be sufficiently given if given by first class mail, postage prepaid, to such holders, at their addresses as the same shall appear on the Security Register. A failure to give notice with respect to any particular holder or any defect therein shall not affect the sufficiency of notice given to any other holder. Notice may be waived in writing by the person entitled to receive such notice either before or after such event and such waiver shall be the equivalent of receipt of such notice.
SECTION 14.08. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by or pursuant to this Indenture to be given or taken by holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments and any such record (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or of the holding by any person of a Security, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 315 of the Trust Indenture Act) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company and any agent of the Trustee or the Company, if made in the manner provided in this
Section 14.08.
Without limiting the generality of this Section 14.08, unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, a holder, including a Depositary that is a holder of a global

52
Security, may make, give or take, by a proxy, or proxies, duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in or pursuant to this Indenture to be made, given or taken by holders, and a Depositary that is a holder of a global Security may provide for the beneficial owners of interests in any such global Security to direct such Depositary in taking such action through such Depositary's standing instructions and customary practices. The Depositary shall report only one result of its solicitation of proxies to the Trustee.
(b) The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any reasonable manner which the Trustee deems sufficient and in accordance with such reasonable rules as the Trustee may determine; and the Trustee may in any instance require further proof with respect to any of the matters referred to in this Section.
(c) The ownership, principal amount and serial numbers of Securities held by any person, and the date of the commencement and the date of the termination of holding the same, shall be proved by the Security Register.
(d) If the Company shall solicit from the holders of any Securities any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company shall, by Board Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of holders of Securities entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act. Such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the holders of Securities of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be holders for the purpose of determining whether holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the holders of Securities shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.
(e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the holder of any Security shall bind every future holder of the same Security and the holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee, any Security Registrar or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.
SECTION 14.09. In any case where the date of maturity of interest on or principal of the Securities or the date fixed for redemption of any Securities shall not be a business day, then payment of interest, principal and premium, if any, may be made on the next succeeding business day with the same force and effect as if made on the date of maturity and no interest shall accrue for the period after such date.

53
SECTION 14.10. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
SECTION 14.11. This Indenture and each Security shall be deemed to be a contract made under the law of the State of New York, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the law of said State.
ARTICLE FIFTEEN
SUBORDINATION OF SECURITIES
SECTION 15.01. The Company, for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees, and each holder of Securities by his acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, Indebtedness evidenced by such Securities, including the principal of and premium, if any, on, sinking fund requirements therefor, if any, and interest, if any, on each and all of the Securities are hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness. The subordination provisions hereof shall be subject to the power of a court of competent jurisdiction to make other equitable provision reflecting the rights conferred in this Indenture upon the Senior Indebtedness and the holders thereof with respect to the Securities and the holders thereof by a lawful plan of reorganization under applicable bankruptcy law.
SECTION 15.02. In the event of any distribution of assets or securities of the Company of any kind or character (whether in cash, property or securities) upon any dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company or otherwise,
(a) the holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive payment in full of the principal thereof and premium, if any, thereon and interest due thereon before any payment or distribution of any character (whether in cash, securities or property) is made on account of the principal of (and premium, if any), or interest on or sinking fund requirements, if any, for the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities of any series; and
(b) any payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, on account of the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities of any series to which the holders of such Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article Fifteen shall be paid or delivered by the Company or any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for benefit of creditors, or other liquidating agent making such payment or distribution, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness at the time outstanding or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, pro rata,

54
as their respective interests may appear, for application to the payment of all such Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Indebtedness in full after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness; and
(c) in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, on account of the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities of any series shall be received by the Trustee or the holders of such Securities before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, such payment or distribution shall be received and held for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instrument evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, pro rata, as their respective interests may appear, for application to the payment of all such Senior Indebtedness, to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Indebtedness in full after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.
The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company within the meaning of this Section 15.02. Upon any payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Company referred to in this Section 15.02, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 10.01, shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for benefit of creditors or other liquidating agent making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the holders of Securities of any series, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Section 15.02. In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Section 15.02, the Trustee may request such person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such person, as to the extent to which such person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, and as to other facts pertinent to the rights of such person under this Section 15.02, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such person pending judicial determination as to the right of such person to receive such payment. Nothing in this Section 15.02 shall apply to the claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 10.05.
Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the holders of the Securities of any series shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of assets or securities of the Company made on the Senior Indebtedness until the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be paid in full and for purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of cash, property, or securities, to which the holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article Fifteen, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Article Fifteen to the holders of Senior Indebtedness by the

55
holders of the Securities or the Trustee, shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the holders of Securities, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of this Article Fifteen are, and are intended, solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.
SECTION 15.03. Nothing contained in this Article Fifteen or elsewhere in this Indenture, or in any of the Securities of any series, is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the holders of the Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the holders of the Securities the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities, as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or affect the relative rights of the holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the holder of any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the provisions of Article Six and the rights, if any, under this Article Fifteen of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy.
SECTION 15.04. (a) Upon the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, or upon the maturity of the Securities of such series by acceleration thereof under Article 6, then all principal and interest on all such matured Senior Indebtedness, or on all Senior Indebtedness outstanding at the time of such acceleration under Article 6, respectively, shall first be paid in full before any direct or indirect payment (in cash, property, securities, by set-off or otherwise) on account of principal (and premium, if any) or interest is made upon the Securities.
(b) Upon a default in the payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest with respect to any Senior Indebtedness, then, unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no direct or indirect payment (in cash, property, securities, by set-off or otherwise) shall be made or agreed to be made on account of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities or as a sinking fund, if any, for the Securities (except sinking fund payments, if any, made in Securities acquired by the Company prior to such default), or in respect of any redemption, retirement, purchase or other acquisition of any of the Securities. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any direct or indirect payment or distribution shall be received by the Trustee or by any holder of the Securities in contravention of the provisions of Section 15.02 or this paragraph (b), then such payments shall be held for the benefit of, and shall be paid over to, the holders of all Senior Indebtedness at the time outstanding or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, for application to the pro rata payment of all such Senior Indebtedness until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

56
(c) Upon the happening of an event of default (other than a default in the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest) with respect to any Senior Indebtedness, as defined therein or in the instrument under which the same is outstanding, permitting the holders thereof to accelerate the maturity thereof, then, unless and until such event of default (other than a default in the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest) shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no direct or indirect payment (in cash, property, securities, by set-off or otherwise) shall be made or agreed to be made on account of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities or as a sinking fund, if any, for the Securities (except sinking fund payments, if any, made in Securities acquired by the Company prior to such event of default), or in respect of any redemption, retirement, purchase or other acquisition of any of the Securities. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any direct or indirect payment or distribution shall be received by the Trustee or any holder of the Securities in contravention of the provisions of Section 15.02 or this paragraph (c), then such payments shall be held for the benefit of, and shall be paid over to, the holders of all Senior Indebtedness at the time outstanding or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, for application to the pro rata payment of all such Senior Indebtedness until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.
SECTION 15.05. Nothing contained in this Article Fifteen or elsewhere in this Indenture, or in any of the Securities, shall
(a) prevent the Company from making any payment on account of principal of (and premium, if any), sinking fund or interest on such Securities, or deposits of moneys for such payments with the Trustee or any paying agent, except during the existence of any of the conditions described in Section 15.02 or Section 15.04, or
(b) prevent the Trustee, notwithstanding the existence of any of the conditions described in Section 15.02 or Section 15.04, from applying any moneys deposited with it hereunder for such purpose to the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any), sinking fund for or interest on the Securities, unless, at least one full business day prior to the date upon which such payment would otherwise (except for the existence of any such condition) become due and payable, the Trustee shall have received written notice of the existence of any such condition and describing the same from the Company or any holder of Senior Indebtedness or any trustee or agent for or similar representative of any such holder, or
(c) result in charging the Trustee with knowledge of the existence of Senior Indebtedness or, in the absence of written notice of the existence of any condition described in Sections 15.02 or 15.04 hereof, with knowledge of the existence of such condition.
SECTION 15.06. The Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article Fifteen in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time held by it, to the same extent as

any other holder of Senior Indebtedness and nothing in this Indenture shall be construed to deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Any amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.07 hereof shall be deemed to be Senior Indebtedness.
SECTION 15.07. No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness of the Company to enforce subordination as herein provided, shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.

Exhibit 5
May 16, 2002
Viad Corp
Viad Tower
1850 North Central Avenue
Phoenix, Arizona 85077
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This opinion is furnished in connection with Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 Registration No. 033-54465 (the "Registration Statement") filed by Viad Corp (the "Company") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and the prospectus contained therein (such prospectus as may be completed or amended, the "Prospectus") with respect to (i) unsecured debt securities of the Company (the "Debt Securities"), which may be either senior (the "Senior Debt Securities") or subordinated (the "Subordinated Debt Securities"), (ii) warrants to purchase Debt Securities (the "Debt Warrants"), (iii) shares of preferred stock of the Company (the "Preferred Stock"), (iv) depositary shares (the "Depositary Shares") representing interests in Preferred Stock, (v) shares of Common Stock of the Company (the "Common Stock"), and (vi) warrants to purchase Common Stock (the "Common Warrants" and together with the Debt Warrants, the "Warrants") with an aggregate issue price of up to $500,000,000. All securities set forth above that may be offered by the Registration Statement are referred to in this opinion as the "Securities."
I have examined, or caused to be examined:
- the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company, each as amended to date;
- the records of the Company's corporate proceedings;
- the Registration Statement, including the exhibits thereto;
- the Indenture between the Company and the Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A., as Trustee, dated April 1, 1993, relating to Senior Debt Securities (the "Senior Indenture");
- form of Senior Note representing Senior Debt Securities;
- form of Fixed Rate Medium Term Note;
- form of Floating Rate Medium Term Note;
- the Indenture between the Company and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as Trustee, dated May 14, 2002 relating to Subordinated Debt Securities (the "Subordinated Indenture" and together with the Senior Indenture, the "Indentures");
- form of Subordinated Debt Securities;
- the Statements of Eligibility on Form T-1 under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (the "Trust Indenture Act"), filed as Exhibits to the Registration Statement;

- the forms of warrant agreements between the Company and one or more warrant agents attached as Exhibits to the Registration Statement relating to the Debt Warrants or the Common Warrants, as the case may be;
- the form of deposit agreement between the Company and a depositary relating to the Depositary Shares; and
- such other documents, instruments, statements and records of the Company as I have deemed relevant and necessary or appropriate in connection with the opinions hereinafter expressed.
In connection with the foregoing, I have assumed and have not independently verified:
- the genuineness of all signatures on all documents examined by me,
- the legal capacity of natural persons,
- the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to me as copies,
- the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, and any amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments), under the Securities Act;
- the filing of a prospectus supplement with the Securities and Exchange Commission describing the Securities offered thereby;
- the issuance and sale of all Securities in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and the applicable prospectus supplement;
- the due authorization, execution and delivery of a definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement with respect to any Securities offered, whether in the form attached as an exhibit to the Registration Statement or otherwise, by the Company and the other parties thereto (each an "Underwriting Agreement");
- any securities issuable upon conversion, exchange, redemption or exercise of any Securities being offered will be duly authorized, created and, if appropriate, reserved for issuance upon such conversion, exchange, redemption or exercise;
- with respect to shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock offered or issuable upon any conversion, exchange, redemption or exercise of any Securities being offered, (a) there will be sufficient shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case may be, authorized under the Company's organizational documents and not otherwise reserved for issuance and (b) certificates representing such shares, if any, shall have been duly executed, countersigned, registered and delivered either in accordance with the terms of the applicable Underwriting Agreement and, in the case of Preferred Stock, the applicable Certificate of Designations, or in accordance with the terms of the Security converted, exchanged, redeemed or exercised;
- the qualification of the Senior Indenture and Subordinated Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act;
- with respect to shares of Preferred Stock offered or issuable upon any conversion, exchange, redemption or exercise of any Securities or represented by Depositary Shares, the due authorization, execution and filing of a certificate of designations with respect to such shares of Preferred Stock (each a "Certificate of Designations");
- with respect to Debt Securities offered, the due authorization, execution and delivery by the parties thereto of the Senior Indenture or the Subordinated Indenture, as the case may be, and each

amendment of or supplement to, the Senior Indenture or Subordinated Indenture, as the case may be;
- with respect to Warrants offered, the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company and a warrant agent of a warrant agreement, and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto, consistent with the applicable form attached as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (each a "Warrant Agreement"); and
- with respect to Depositary Shares offered, the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company and a depositary of a deposit agreement and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto, consistent with the form attached as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (each a "Deposit Agreement") and the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company of depositary receipts evidencing rights in the Depositary Shares.
Based upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that:
1. The Debt Securities registered under the Registration Statement, when duly authorized, established, executed, authenticated and delivered against payment therefor or upon the exercise of Debt Warrants, and, in the case of Debt Securities acquired upon the exercise of Debt Warrants, when the Debt Warrants shall have been duly authorized, established, executed, authenticated and delivered against payment therefore and the Company shall have received any additional consideration which is payable upon such exercise, in each case in accordance with the terms and provisions of the applicable Indenture, as amended or supplemented, and any applicable Underwriting Agreement and as contemplated by the Registration Statement, including the applicable prospectus supplement, will be validly issued and will constitute binding obligations of the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect, general principles of equity and governmental authority to limit delay or prohibit the making of payments outside the United States or in foreign currency or composite currency.
2. The shares of Preferred Stock registered under the Registration Statement, when duly authorized and established and issued and delivered against payment therefor and, in the case of Preferred Stock issued upon the conversion, exchange, redemption or exercise of any other Security, in accordance with the terms of such other Security, in each case in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Registration Statement, including the applicable prospectus supplement, any applicable Underwriting Agreement, and the applicable Certificate of Designations, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
3. The shares of Common Stock registered under the Registration Statement, when duly authorized and issued and delivered for consideration having a value not less than the par value thereof and, in the case of Common Stock issued upon the conversion, exchange, redemption or exercise of any other Security, in accordance with the terms and conditions of such other Security, in each case, in accordance with the Registration Statement including the applicable prospectus supplement and any applicable Underwriting Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

4. The Warrants registered under the Registration Statement, when duly authorized, established, executed and delivered against payment therefor in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Warrant Agreement, the Registration Statement including the applicable prospectus supplement and any applicable Underwriting Agreement, will be legally issued, and will be legal and binding obligations of the Company in accordance with their respective terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors' rights and generally from time to time in effect, general principles of equity and governmental authority to limit delay or prohibit the making of payments outside the United States or in foreign currency or composite currency.
5. The Depositary Shares registered under the Registration Statement, when duly authorized, executed, authenticated and delivered against payment therefore, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Deposit Agreement, the Registration Statement including the applicable prospectus supplement and any applicable Underwriting Agreement, will be legally issued, and will be legal and binding obligations of the Company in accordance with their respective terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors' rights and generally from time to time in effect, general principles of equity and governmental authority to limit delay or prohibit the making of payments outside the United States or in foreign currency or composite currency.
I express no opinion herein as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States of America and I express no opinion as to state securities or blue sky laws.
I hereby consent to the reference to my name in the Registration Statement and further consent to the inclusion of this opinion as Exhibit 5 to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, I do not hereby admit that I am in the category of persons whose consent is required under the Securities Act or the rules and regulation of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Very truly yours,

EXHIBIT 1
WACHOVIA BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION
For the purpose of organizing an Association to carry on the business of banking under the laws of the United States, the undersigned do enter into the following Articles of Association:
FIRST. The title of this Association shall be WACHOVIA BANK, NATIONAL 
ASSOCIATION.
SECOND. The main office of the Association shall be in Charlotte, County of Mecklenburg, State of North Carolina. The general business of the Association shall be conducted at its main office and its branches.
THIRD. The Board of Directors of this Association shall consist of not less than five nor more than twenty-five directors, the exact number of directors within such minimum and maximum limits to be fixed and determined from time to time by resolution of a majority of the full Board of Directors or by resolution of the shareholders at any annual or special meeting thereof. Unless otherwise provided by the laws of the United States, any vacancy in the Board of Directors for any reason, including an increase in the number thereof, may be filled by action of the Board of Directors.
FOURTH. The annual meeting of the shareholders for the election of directors and the transaction of whatever other business may be brought before said meeting shall be held at the main office or such other place as the Board of Directors may designate, on the day of each year specified therefor in the By-Laws, but if no election is held on that day, it may be held on any subsequent day according to the provisions of law; and all elections shall be held according to such lawful regulations as may be prescribed by the Board of Directors.
Nominations for election to the Board of Directors may be made by the Board of Directors or by any stockholder of any outstanding class of capital stock of
8

the bank entitled to vote for election of directors. Nominations, other than those made by or on behalf of the existing management of the bank, shall be made in writing and shall be delivered or mailed to the President of the bank and to the Comptroller of the Currency, Washington, D.C., not less than 14 days nor more than 50 days prior to any meeting of stockholders called for the election of directors, provided, however, that if less than 21 days' notice of the meeting is given to shareholders, such nomination shall be mailed or delivered to the President of the Bank and to the Comptroller of the Currency not later than the close of business on the seventh day following the day on which the notice of meeting was mailed. Such notification shall contain the following information to the extent known to the notifying shareholder: (a) the name and address of each proposed nominee; (b) the principal occupation of each proposed nominee; (c) the total number of shares of capital stock of the bank that will be voted for each proposed nominee; (d) the name and residence address of the notifying shareholder; and (e) the number of shares of capital stock of the bank owned by the notifying shareholder. Nominations not made in accordance herewith may, in his discretion, be disregarded by the Chairman of the meeting, and upon his instructions, the vote tellers may disregard all votes cast for each such nominee.
FIFTH.
(a) General. The amount of capital stock of this Association shall be (I) 25,000,000 shares of common stock of the par value of twenty dollars ($20.00) each (the "Common Stock") and (ii) 160,540 shares of preferred stock of the par value of one dollar ($ 1. 00) each (the "Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock"), having the rights, privileges and preferences set forth below, but said capital stock may be increased or decreased from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the laws of the United States.
(b) Terms of the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock.
1. General. Each share of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock shall be identical in all respects with the other shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock. The authorized number of shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock may from time to time be increased or decreased (but not below the number then outstanding) by the Board of Directors. Shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock redeemed by the Association shall be canceled and shall revert to authorized but unissued shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock.
2. Dividends.
9

(a) General. The holders of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, but only out of funds legally available therefor, non-cumulative cash dividends at the annual rate of $83.75 per share, and no more, payable quarterly on the first days of December, March, June and September, respectively, in each year with respect to the quarterly dividend period (or portion thereof) ending on the day preceding such respective dividend payment date, to shareholders of record on the respective date, not exceeding fifty days preceding such dividend payment date, fixed for that purpose by the Board of Directors in advance of payment of each particular dividend. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the cash dividend to be paid on the first dividend payment date after the initial issuance of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock and on any dividend payment date with respect to a partial dividend period shall be $83.75 per share multiplied by the fraction produced by dividing the number of days since such initial issuance or in such partial dividend period, as the case may be, by 360.
(b) Non-cumulative Dividends. Dividends on the shares of NonCumulative Stock shall not be cumulative and no rights shall accrue to the holders of shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock by reason of the fact that the Association may fail to declare or pay dividends on the shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock in any amount in any quarterly dividend period, whether or not the earnings of the Association in any quarterly dividend period were sufficient to pay such dividends in whole or in part, and the Association shall have no obligation at any time to pay any such dividend.
(c) Payment of Dividends. So long as any share of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock remains outstanding, no dividend whatsoever shall be paid or declared and no distribution made on any junior stock other than a dividend payable in junior stock, and no shares of junior stock shall be purchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired for consideration by the Association, directly or indirectly (other than as a result of a reclassification of junior stock, or the exchange or conversion of one junior stock for or into another junior stock, or other than through the use of the proceeds of a substantially contemporaneous sale of other junior stock), unless all dividends on all shares of non-cumulative Preferred Stock and non-cumulative Preferred Stock ranking on a parity as to dividends with the shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock for the most recent dividend period ended prior to the date of such payment or declaration shall have been paid in full and all dividends on all shares of cumulative Preferred Stock ranking on a parity as to dividends with the shares of Non-Cumulative Stock (notwithstanding that dividends on such stock are
10

cumulative) for all past dividend periods shall have been paid in full. Subject to the foregoing, and not otherwise, such dividends (payable in cash, stock or otherwise) as may be determined by the Board of Directors may be declared and paid on any junior stock from time to time out of any funds legally available therefor, and the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to participate in any such dividends, whether payable in cash, stock or otherwise. No dividends shall be paid or declared upon any shares of any class or series of stock of the Association ranking on a parity (whether dividends on such stock are cumulative or non-cumulative) with the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock in the payment of dividends for any period unless at or prior to the time of such payment or declaration all dividends payable on the Non-cumulative Preferred Stock for the most recent dividend period ended prior to the date of such payment or declaration shall have been paid in full. When dividends are not paid in full, as aforesaid, upon the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock ranking on a parity as to dividends (whether dividends on such stock are cumulative or non-cumulative) with the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, all dividends declared upon the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock ranking on a parity as to dividends with the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock shall be declared pro rata so that the amount of dividends declared per share on the Non-cumulative Preferred Stock and such other Preferred Stock shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accrued dividends per share on the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock (but without any accumulation in respect of any unpaid dividends for prior dividend periods on the shares of Non-Cumulative Stock) and such other Preferred Stock bear to each other. No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock which may be in arrears.
3. Voting. The holders of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock shall not have any right to vote for the election of directors or for any other purpose.
4. Redemption.
(a) Optional Redemption. The Association, at the option of the Board of Directors, may redeem the whole or any part of the shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, at any time or from time to time after the fifth anniversary of the date of original issuance of the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, upon notice given as hereinafter specified, at the redemption price per share equal to $1,000 plus an amount equal to the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends from the
11

immediately preceding dividend payment date (but without any accumulation for unpaid dividends for prior dividend periods on the shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock) to the redemption date.
(b) Procedures. Notice of every redemption of shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of record of the shares to be redeemed at their respective last addresses as they shall appear on the books of the Association. Such mailing shall be at least 10 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. Any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the shareholder receives such notice, and failure duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice, to any holder of shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock designated for redemption shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock.
In case of redemption of a part only of the shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock at the time outstanding the redemption may be either pro rata or by lot or by such other means as the Board of Directors of the Association in its discretion shall determine. The Board of Directors shall have full power and authority, subject to the provisions herein contained, to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which shares of the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock shall be redeemed from time to time.
If notice of redemption shall have been duly given, and, if on or before the redemption date specified therein, all funds necessary for such redemption shall have been set aside by the Association, separate and apart from its other funds, in trust for the pro rata benefit of the holders of the shares called for redemption, so as to be and continue to be available therefor, then, notwithstanding that any certificate for shares so called for redemption shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, all shares so called for redemption shall no longer be deemed outstanding on and after such redemption date, and all rights with respect to such shares shall forthwith on such redemption date cease and terminate, except only the right of the holders thereof to, receive the amount payable on redemption thereof, without interest.
If such notice of redemption shall have been duly given or if the Association shall have given to the bank or trust company hereinafter referred to irrevocable authorization promptly to give such notice, and, if on or before the redemption date specified therein, the funds necessary for such redemption shall have been deposited by the Association with
12

such bank or trust company in trust for the pro rata benefit of the holders of the shares called for redemption, then, notwithstanding that any certificate for shares so called for redemption shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, from and after the time of such deposit, all shares so called for redemption shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares shall forthwith cease and terminate, except only the right of the holders thereof to receive from such bank or trust company at any time after the time of such deposit the funds so deposited, without interest. The aforesaid bank or trust company shall be organized and in good standing under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof, shall have capital, surplus and undivided profits aggregating at least $50,000,000 according to its last published statement of condition, and shall be identified in the notice of redemption. Any interest accrued on such funds shall be paid to the Association from time to time. In case fewer than all the shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock represented by a stock certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares without cost to the holder thereof.
Any funds so set aside or deposited, as the case may be, and unclaimed at the end of the relevant escheat period under applicable state law from such redemption date shall, to the extent permitted by law, be released or repaid to the Association, after which repayment the holders of the shares so called for redemption shall look only to the Association for payment thereof.
5. Liquidation.
(a) Liquidation Preference. In the event of any voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Association, the holders of Non-cumulative Preferred Stock shall be entitled, before any distribution or payment is made to the holders of any junior stock, to be paid in full an amount per share equal to an amount equal to $1,000 plus an amount equal to the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends per share from the immediately preceding dividend payment date (but without any accumulation for unpaid dividends for prior dividend periods on the shares of Non-cumulative Preferred Stock) per share to such distribution or payment date (the "liquidation amount").
In the event of any involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Association, then, before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any junior stock, the holders of Non-Cumulative
13

Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid in full an amount per share equal to the liquidation amount.
If such payment shall have been made in full to all holders of shares of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, the remaining assets of the Association shall be distributed among the holders of junior stock, according to their respective rights and preferences and in each case according to their respective numbers of shares.
(b) Insufficient Assets. In the event that, upon any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the available assets of the Association are insufficient to pay such liquidation amount on all outstanding shares of Non-cumulative Preferred Stock, then the holders of Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of assets in proportion to the full amounts to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.
(c) Interpretation. For the purposes of this paragraph 5, the consolidation or merger of the Association with any other corporation or association shall not be deemed to constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Association.
6. Preemptive Rights. The Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock is not entitled to any preemptive, subscription, conversion or exchange rights in respect of any securities of the Association.
7. Definitions. As used herein with respect to the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
(a) The term "junior stock" shall mean the Common Stock and any other class or series of shares of the Association hereafter authorized over which the Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock has preference or priority in the payment of dividends or in the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Association.
(b) The term "accrued dividends", with respect to any share of any class or series, shall mean an amount computed at the annual dividend rate for the class or series of which the particular share is a part, from, if such share is cumulative, the date on which dividends on such share became cumulative to and including the date to which such dividends are to be accrued, less the aggregate amount of all dividends theretofore paid thereon and, if such share is noncumulative, the relevant date designated to and including the date to which such dividends are accrued, less the
14

aggregate amount of all dividends theretofore paid with respect to such period.
(c) The term "Preferred Stock" shall mean all outstanding shares of all series of preferred stock of the Association as defined in this Article Fifth of the Articles of Association, as amended, of the Association.
8. Restriction on Transfer.
