conditions. In particular, we must obtain an opinion of tax counsel that the defeasance will not result in recognition for United States
Federal income tax purposes of any gain or loss to holders of the series of debt securities. The opinion of tax counsel, in the case
of legal defeasance, must refer to and be based upon a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service or a change in applicable United States
Federal income tax law occurring after the date of the indenture.

Concerning the Trustee

The Bank of New York Mellon serves as trustee
under the indenture and is the security registrar and paying agent with respect to the debt securities. The indenture provides that,
except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the trustee will perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in the
indenture. During the existence of an Event of Default, the trustee will exercise such rights and powers vested in it under the indenture
and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person’s own affairs.

The indenture contains certain limitations on
the right of the trustee, should it become a creditor of ours, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain
property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions with
us; provided, however, that if the trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict or resign.

The trustee’s principal corporate trust
office is located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10286. We have banking relationships with The Bank of New York Mellon and
certain of its affiliates.

Governing Law

The indenture and the debt securities will be
governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
