duly authenticated and delivered by the Trustee.
In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Securities shall cease to be such officer before the Security
so signed shall be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by the Company, such Security nevertheless may be authenticated anddelivered or disposed of as though the person who signed such Security had not ceased to be such officer of the Company; and any Security may besigned on behalf of the Company by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Security, shall be the proper officers of the Company,

Securityholder except for the expenses of delivery (if any) not made by regular mail (such delivery to be at the sole risk and expense of the transferee orholder, as applicable) and except, if the Company or the Registrar shall so require, the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp duty, tax orgovernmental charge or insurance charge that may be imposed in relation thereto.

Upon the issuance of any substitute Security, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax orother governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee or its agent)connected therewith. In case any Security which has matured or is about to mature or has been called for redemption in full shall become mutilated or
defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may instead of issuing a substitute Security, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without
surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated or defaced Security), if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee

securities in effect as of the date of such disposition and, upon receipt of a written request from the Company, deliver a certificate of disposition to theCompany.

to time by notice from the International Capital Market Association, the “DTC Procedures”), if DTC is acting as Clearing Organization with respect tosuch series or with respect to depositary interests representing the Securities of such series, or in accordance with such other similar procedures as may
be established by another Clearing Organization. Except as otherwise provided in this Indenture, any such Paying Agent shall be responsible only for
performing such services as are specifically provided for in the DTC Procedures or such other procedures actually known by the Paying Agent, asapplicable and as may be amended or modified and communicated to the Paying Agent from time to time. Any such Paying Agent and the Company

Organization (or Holders of the Securities, if definitive Securities representing such series of Securities have been issued); (ii) provide any required
confirmations of information available to it; and (iii) promptly deliver such Tax Documentation so received to the Company for filing with the relevantJapanese district tax office. Any such Paying Agent may rely on the information provided in Tax Documentation (including where relevant, supporting

liability for any withholding of tax arising as a result of a late delivery of the required Tax Documentation or incorrectly completed Tax Documentation.
14

an exemption from Japanese withholding tax after the date on which an amount in respect of such tax is withheld and before the date on which the tax is
actually paid to the Japanese tax authorities, then the Company or the Paying Agent acting at the direction of the Company shall, to the extent
reasonably practicable and to the extent not prohibited by Japanese tax law, repay the amount withheld (after deduction of reasonable costs, including
amounts in respect of changes in foreign exchange rates) to the Holder.
(c)
The Paying Agent shall furnish forms of certifications to Holders upon request, and shall use reasonable efforts to assist
Holders in claiming available exemptions, but shall not be liable for a Holder’s failure to qualify for such an exemption. Based on the Tax
Documentation received, the Paying Agent will make the appropriate calculations of interest payable after making the relevant deductions in accordancewith this Section 2.12. The Paying Agent will remit all amounts of tax withheld under this Section 2.12 to or to the written order of the Company assoon as reasonably practicable in order to enable the Company to make the necessary payments to the relevant tax office in accordance with applicablelaws and regulations. The Paying Agent shall retain copies of Tax Documentation for a period of five years from the date as prescribed by Japanese tax
laws and shall make such documentation available for inspection by the Company and any relevant tax authorities in Japan upon written request given inreasonable notice from the Company.

either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers
printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly
notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP, ISIN numbers or Common Codes.

Section 6.01 Evidence of Action Taken by Securityholders. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by a specified percentage in principal amount of the Securityholders of any or all
series may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such specified percentage of
Securityholders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective
when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee. Proof of execution of any instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shallbe sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Sections 5.01 and 5.02) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in
the manner provided in this Article.
Section 6.02 Proof of Execution of Instruments and of Holding of Securities; Record Date. Subject to Sections 5.01 and 5.02,
the execution of any instrument by a Securityholder or his agent or proxy may be proved in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as
may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee. The holding of Securities shall be proved by the Register orby a certificate of the Registrar thereof. The Company may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of holders of Securities of any
series entitled to vote or consent to any action referred to in Section 6.01, which record date may be set at any time or from time to time by notice to theTrustee, for any date or dates (in the case of any adjournment or reconsideration) not more than 60 days nor less than ten days prior to the proposed dateof such vote or consent, and thereafter, notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, only holders of Securities of such series of record on such record
date shall be entitled to so vote or give such consent or revoke such vote or consent; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unlesstaken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record
date. With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the Company may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time

Date is given to the Trustee in writing, and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 10.04, on or prior to theexisting Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the Company shall bedeemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change theExpiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable

Section 6.03 Holders to be Treated as Owners. The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may
deem and treat the person in whose name any Security shall be registered upon the Register for such series as the absolute owner of such Security(whether or not such Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon) for the purpose of receiving
payment of or on account of the principal of and, subject to the provisions of this Indenture, interest on such Security and for all other purposes; andneither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments somade to any such person, or upon his order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability
for moneys payable upon any such Security.
Section 6.04 Securities Owned by Company Deemed Not Outstanding. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite
aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities of any or all series have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture,
Securities which are owned by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities with respect to which such determination is being made or by any
person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any other obligor on the
Securities with respect to which such determination is being made shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any suchdetermination, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver only
Securities in respect of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice shall be so disregarded. Securities held by any depositaryor other custodial arrangement established by or on behalf of the Company shall be regarded as Outstanding if the beneficial interest therein is not
owned by the Company or any other obligor on such Securities or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct orindirect common control with the Company or any other obligor on such Securities. Securities so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be
regarded as Outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Securities and thatthe pledgee is not the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct
or indirect common control with the Company or any other obligor on the Securities. In case of a dispute as to such right, the advice of counsel shall be
full protection in respect of any reasonable decision made by the Trustee in accordance with such advice. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company
shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an Officer’s Certificate listing and identifying all Securities, if any, known by the Company to be owned or held byor for the account of any of the above-described persons; and, subject to Sections 5.01 and 5.02, the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officer’s
Certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Securities not listed therein are Outstanding for the purpose of any
such determination.
Section 6.05 Right of Revocation of Action Taken. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided
in Section 6.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any or all series, as thecase may be, specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Security the serial number of which is shown by the evidence to
be included among the serial numbers of the Securities the Holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice at the Corporate
Trust Office and upon proof of holding as provided in this Article, revoke such action so far as concerns such Security. Except as aforesaid, any suchaction 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
and of any Securities issued in exchange or substitution therefor or on registration of transfer thereof, irrespective of whether or not any notation inregard thereto is made upon any such Security. Any action taken by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any
or all series, as the case may be, specified in this Indenture in connection with such action shall be conclusively binding upon the Company, the Trustee
and the Holders of all the Securities affected by such action.
