                              ledger balance for such deposits and then dividing
                              this sum by the number of days in the calendar
                              quarter.

                   Such determinations in this regard shall be final and
                   conclusive for all purposes.

                    or scrip shall be issued upon conversion of Series A

                    which would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any
                    Series A Preferred Shares, the number of full Common Shares

                    of its treasury shares or its authorized but unissued Common
                    Shares, or both, solely for the purpose of effecting the
                    conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares, sufficient
                    Common Shares to provide for the conversion of all

                    such shares are surrendered to the Corporation or its
                    transfer agent; provided, however, that the Corporation

                    are delivered either to the Corporation or any transfer
                    agent designated by the Corporation.  Conversion shall be

                                              -----------------
                    case may be, and such date is referred to herein as the

                    "Conversion Date."  Subject to the provisions of Section

                    after surrender of the certificate or certificates
                    representing the Series B Preferred Shares to the
                    Corporation or any transfer agent designated by the
                    Corporation), the Corporation shall issue and deliver to
                    such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of
                    full Common Shares to which such holder is entitled as
                    provided in Section 5.28.4(b) hereof.  Subject to the
                                -----------------
                    provisions of Section 5.28.4(b), the person in whose name

                    such Common Shares on the applicable Conversion Date.

                              -----------------
                    scrip shall be issued upon conversion of Series B Preferred
                    Shares.  In lieu of any fractional Common Shares which would
                    otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any Series B
                    Preferred Shares, the number of full Common Shares issuable
                    upon conversion thereof shall be increased to the next
                    higher number of whole shares.

                    Common Shares in conversion for the outstanding Series B
                    Preferred Shares on the Conversion Date), such Series B

                    of its treasury shares or its authorized but unissued Common
                    Shares, or both, solely for the purpose of effecting the
                    conversion of the Series B Preferred Shares, sufficient
                    Common Shares to provide for the conversion of all

               from time to time as follows:

                              (a)  Share Subdivisions or Split-Ups. If the
                                   -------------------------------
                    number of Common Shares outstanding at any time after the
                    date of issuance of the Series B Preferred Shares is
                    increased by a subdivision or split-up of Common Shares,
                    then immediately after the record date fixed for the
                    determination of holders of Common Shares entitled to
                    receive such subdivision or split-up, as the case may be,

                    the Series B Preferred Shares is decreased by a combination
                    of the outstanding Common Shares, then, immediately after

                    Ratios applicable thereto shall be appropriately decreased
                    so that the holder of any Series B Preferred Shares
                    thereafter converted shall be entitled to receive the number
                    of Common Shares of the Corporation which the holder would
                    have owned immediately following such action had such Series

                    with or the merger of the Corporation with or into any other
                    Person or of the sale, lease or other transfer of all or
                    substantially all of the assets of the Corporation to any
                    other Person, or in the case of any distribution of cash or
                    other assets or of notes or other indebtedness of the
                    Corporation or any other securities of the Corporation
                    (except Common Shares) to the holders of its Common Shares,

                    such capital reorganization, reclassification,
                    consolidation, merger, sale, lease or other transfer or such
                    distribution) upon conversion of such Series B Preferred
                    Shares would have been entitled upon such capital
                    reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
                    sale, lease or other transfer or such distribution in place
                    of (or in addition to, in the case of any such event after
                    which Common Shares remain outstanding) the Common Shares
                    into which such Series B Preferred Shares would otherwise
                    have been convertible; and in any such case, if necessary,
                    the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights

                    contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Conversion

                    All outstanding shares of any other series of preferred
                    shares shall rank at parity with the Series B Preferred
                    Shares. The consolidation or merger of the Corporation, or a
                    sale, exchange or transfer of all or substantially all of
                    its assets as an entirety, shall not be regarded as a

                    Preferred Shares of the full preferential amounts fixed
                    hereby for Series B Preferred Shares, the holders of Series
                    B Preferred Shares as such shall have no right or claim to
                    any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

                            (c)  If the assets of the Corporation available for
                    distribution to the holders of Series B Preferred Shares

               Preferred Shares are outstanding, without the prior written
               consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series B

               any provision of the Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation
               so as to affect adversely the preferences, rights, powers or

               contemplated but not expressly provided for by the provisions of

               the rights of the holders thereof.

                    5.28.11  Exclusion of Other Rights.  Unless otherwise

                    representing the Series C Preferred Shares to the
                    Corporation or any transfer agent designated by the

                              -----------------
                    scrip shall be issued upon conversion of Series C Preferred
                    Shares.  In lieu of any fractional Common Shares which would
                    otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any Series C
                    Preferred Shares, the number of full Common Shares issuable
                    upon conversion thereof shall be increased to the next
                    higher number of whole shares.

                    into which such Series C Preferred Shares would otherwise
                    have been convertible; and in any such case, if necessary,
                    the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights

                    contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Conversion

                    which holders of all such parity shares are respectively
                    entitled upon such dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

          of any other corporation at the request of this Corporation, and (iii)
          which is asserted against or threatened against him, as a party or
          otherwise, by reason of his having been a director, officer or
          employee of this Corporation or such other corporation or by reason of

          regular counsel of the Corporation) shall deliver to it its written
          opinion that the person to be indemnified so acted.
