(Section 612) In addition, the indenture provides that no holder of any debt security will have any right to institute any proceeding judicial or otherwise, with respect to the indenture for the appointment of a receiver or for any other remedy thereunder unless:

 made written request to the indenture trustee to institute proceedings in respect of that event of default and have offered the indenture trustee reasonable indemnity against costs and liabilities incurred in complying with such request; and |

| • |     | for 60 days after receipt of notice, the indenture trustee has failed to institute any such proceeding and

 series.                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
