 7 








 
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 and so voting at any such meeting. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or the holding of any Person of a Security, shall be
sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.05. The record of any meeting of Holders of Securities shall be
proved in the manner provided in Section 14.06. 
 The Company may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders of
Securities entitled to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent authorized or permitted under this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, those Persons who were Holders of Outstanding Securities at such record date (or their duly designated
proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled with respect to such Securities to take such action by vote or consent or to revoke any vote or consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date.
Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice thereof to be given to the Trustee in writing in the manner provided in Section 1.06 and to the relevant Holders as set forth
in Section 1.07. 
 (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit
of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof.
Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing,
or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient. 
 (c) The
principal amount and serial numbers of Securities held by any Person, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the Security Register. 
 (d) In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Securities have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this Indenture, the principal amount of an Original Issue
Discount Security that may be counted in making such determination and that shall be deemed to be Outstanding for such purposes shall be equal to the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of
the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 5.02 at the time the taking of such action by the Holders of such requisite principal amount is evidenced to the Trustee for such Securities. 
 (e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of 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, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon,
whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. Any consent or waiver of the Holder of any Security shall be irrevocable for a period of six months after the date of execution thereof, but otherwise any such Holder or subsequent
Holder may revoke the request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or other Act as to his Security or portion of his Security; provided, however, that such revocation shall be effective only if the Trustee receives the notice of
revocation before the date the Act becomes effective. 
 Section 1.06 Notices, Etc., to Trustee and Company. 
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made
upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, 
 (a) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder
if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, or 
  

 8 








 (b) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless
otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, certified or registered mail (return receipt requested), to the Company addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this Indenture or at
any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company, Attention: Corporate Secretary. 
 Section 1.07 Notice
to Holders; Waiver. 
 Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of Securities of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently
given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date,
and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. 
 In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail
service, or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice to Holders of Securities by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every
purpose hereunder. In any case in which notice to Holders of Securities is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder of a Security, shall affect the sufficiency of such
notice with respect to other Holders of Securities. 
 Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in
writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition
precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 Section 1.08 Conflict With Trust Indenture Act.

 If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with any provision of the Trust Indenture Act or another provision hereof required
to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such provision of the Trust Indenture Act shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may
be so modified or excluded, the former provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded. 
 Section 1.09 Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. 
 The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents
are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

 In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 Section 1.12 Benefits of Indenture.

under this Indenture, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, any Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent or Security Registrar and the Holders.

extent the application of the laws of another jurisdiction would be required thereby. 
 Section 1.14 Legal Holidays. 
 In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then
(notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities) payment of principal of, premium (if any) and interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to Securities of any series need not be made at such Place of Payment on
such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity, provided that no interest shall accrue with
respect to such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

law.

 (u) any other terms of such series (which terms shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture).

 All Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and date and except as may otherwise be provided
in or pursuant to the Board Resolution referred to above and (subject to Section 3.03) set forth, or determined in the manner provided, in the Officers’ Certificate referred to above or in any such indenture supplemental hereto.

 At the option of the Company, interest on the Securities of any series that bears interest may be paid by mailing a check to the address of
any Holder as such address shall appear in the Security Register. 
 If any of the terms of the series are established by action taken pursuant
to a Board Resolution, a copy of an appropriate record of such action together with such Board Resolution shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the
Officers’ Certificate setting forth the terms of the series. 
 Section 3.02 Denominations. 
 The Securities of each series shall be issuable in such denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by Section 3.01. In the absence of any such
provisions with respect to the Securities of any series, the Securities of such series denominated in Dollars shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. 
 Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Securities, any Securities of a series denominated in a
currency other than Dollars shall be issuable in denominations that are the equivalent, as determined by the Company by reference to the noon buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers for such currency (“Exchange Rate”), as
such rate is reported or otherwise made available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, on the applicable issue date for such Securities, of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.

 Section 3.03 Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. 
 The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its President, its Treasurer or one of its Vice Presidents and
attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. 
 Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior
to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities. 
 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 for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such
Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities as in this Indenture provided and not otherwise. 
 If the form or terms of the Securities of a series have been established in or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions or any other method permitted by Section 2.01 and Section 3.01, 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 6.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon,
an Opinion of Counsel stating, 
 (a) that the form of such Securities has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

 (b) that the terms of such Securities have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 
 (c) that such Securities when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in
such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as such enforcement is subject to the effect of (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance,
reorganization or other laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 
 If not all the Securities of any series are to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate required pursuant
to Section 3.01 or the Company Order or Opinion of Counsel required pursuant to Section 3.03 at the time of issuance of each Security, but such documents, as applicable, with appropriate modifications shall be delivered at or before the
time of issuance of the first Security of such series. The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities 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 not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
 Each Security shall be dated the date of
its authentication. 
 No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there
appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such
Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security
to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.09 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 1.03 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued
and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 
  

 15 








 In case the Company, pursuant to and in compliance with Article Eight hereof, shall consolidate with or
merge into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, and the successor Person resulting from such consolidation, or surviving such merger, or into which the Company will have
been merged, or the Person which will have received a sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition as aforesaid, will have executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the Trustee pursuant to Article Eight hereof, any of the Securities
authenticated or delivered prior to such sale, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition may, from time to time, at the request of the successor Person, be exchanged for other Securities executed in the name of the
successor Person with such changes in phraseology and form as may be appropriate, but otherwise in substance of like tenor as the Securities surrendered for such exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon Company Request of the
successor Person, will authenticate and deliver Securities as specified in such request for the purpose of such exchange. If Securities will at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a successor Person pursuant to this
Section 3.03 in exchange or substitution for or upon registration of transfer of any Securities, such successor Person, at the option of the Holders but without expense to them, will provide for the exchange of all Securities at the time
Outstanding for Securities authenticated and delivered in such new name. 
 Section 3.04 Temporary Securities. 
 Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
temporary Securities that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form and
with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers of the Company executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 
 Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form (which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions of the following paragraphs), if
temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such
series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon
surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute and deliver a Company Order requesting the Trustee to authenticate and deliver and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as
definitive Securities of such series. 
 All Outstanding temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same
benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor authenticated and delivered hereunder. 
 Section 3.05 Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. 
 The Company shall cause to be kept for each series of
Securities at one of the offices or agencies maintained pursuant to Section 10.02 a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively
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 of such series. The Trustee is hereby
initially appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. 
 Except as set forth in Section 2.03 or as may be provided pursuant to Section 3.01, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency in a Place of Payment for that series, the
Company shall execute and deliver a Company Order requesting the Trustee to authenticate and deliver and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same
series and of like tenor, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount. 
  

 16 








 At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same
series and of like tenor, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency, and upon payment, if the Company shall so require, of the charges
hereinafter provided. 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. 
 All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt,
and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
 Every
Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the
Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 No service charge shall be made for any
registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities,
other than exchange pursuant to Section 3.04, Section 9.06 or Section 11.07 not involving any transfer. 
 The Company shall not
be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of such series selected
for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed
portion of any Security being redeemed in part or (iii) to register the transfer or exchange of Securities between a record date and the next succeeding interest payment date. 
 Any Holder of a Global Security shall, by acceptance of such Global Security, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Security may be effected only through a book entry system
maintained by the Holder of such Global Security (or its agent), and that ownership of a beneficial interest in the Security shall be required to be reflected in a book entry. 
 Section 3.06 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 
 If any mutilated
Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and deliver a Company Order requesting the Trustee to authenticate and deliver, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor, a new Security of the same series
and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 If there shall be delivered to the Company and
the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the
absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing
a number not contemporaneously outstanding and a Company Order requesting the Trustee to authenticate and deliver, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, such new Security. 

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may,
instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 
  

 17 








 Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section 3.06, the Company may require the payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fee and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 
 Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section 3.06 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original
additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and
all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section 3.06 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the
extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 
 Section 3.07 Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 
 Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date or within five days thereafter shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date
for such interest. Unless otherwise provided with respect to the Securities of any series, payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed or delivered to the address of any Person entitled thereto as such address shall
appear in the Security Register. 
 Any interest on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided
for, on any Interest Payment Date or within five days thereafter (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such
Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below: 
 (a) The
Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of
such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and
at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to
the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause (1) provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the
payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee
shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class
postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of such series at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special
Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record
Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b). 
 (b) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the
Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the
Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause (b), such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07, each Security delivered under this Indenture, upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued
and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 
  

 18 








 Section 3.08 Persons Deemed Owners. 
 Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Security Registrar, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, premium (if any) and (subject to Section 3.05 and Section 3.07) interest on such
Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Security Registrar, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 Section 3.09 Cancellation. 
 All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee. All Securities
so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever,
and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section 3.09, except as expressly permitted by this
Indenture. All canceled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures, unless the Trustee is otherwise directed by a Company Order. 
 Section 3.10 Computation of Interest. 
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a year comprising twelve 30-day months. 
 Section 3.11 CUSIP Numbers. 
 The
Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state
that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers 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 of any change in the CUSIP numbers. 
 ARTICLE FOUR 
 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

 Section 4.01 Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 
 This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect with respect to Securities of a series, and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to Securities of such series, when 
 (1) either

 (A) all Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Securities that have been
destroyed, lost or stolen and that have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.06, and (ii) Securities for whose payment money or Governmental Obligations have theretofore been deposited in trust with the Trustee or any Paying
Agent or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid or returned to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 10.03) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; 
 (B) with respect to all Outstanding Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, the Company has
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee

  

 19 








 
under the terms of a trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders of Outstanding Securities for that purpose,
money or Government Obligations maturing as to principal and interest in such amounts and at such times as will, together with the income to accrue thereon, without consideration of any reinvestment thereof, be sufficient to pay and discharge the
entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal of, premium (if any) and interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to such Securities to the Stated
Maturity or any Redemption Date contemplated by the penultimate paragraph of this Section 4.01, as the case may be; or 
 (C) the Company has properly fulfilled such other means of satisfaction and discharge as is specified, as contemplated by Section 3.01, to be applicable to the Securities of such series; 
 (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company with respect to the Outstanding Securities of
such series; 
 (3) the Company has complied with any other conditions specified pursuant to Section 3.01 to be applicable
to the discharge of this Indenture with respect to Securities of such series pursuant to this Section 4.01; and 
 (4) the
Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Securities
of such series have been complied with; 
 (5) if the conditions set forth in subclause (A) of clause (1) of
Section 4.01 have not been satisfied and unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of Securities of
such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit, satisfaction and discharge and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amount and in the same
manner and at the same time as would have been the case if such deposit, satisfaction and discharge had not occurred; and 
 (6)
no Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such issue shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of any such deposit or, in so far as clause (e) or (f) of Section 5.01 is concerned, at any time in the
period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period). 
 If any Outstanding Securities of such series are to be redeemed prior to their Stated Maturity, whether pursuant to any optional redemption provisions or in accordance with any mandatory sinking fund
requirement, the trust agreement referred to in subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section 4.01 shall provide therefor and the Company shall make such arrangements as are satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of
redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company. 
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
with respect to the Securities of such series pursuant to this Section 4.01, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 6.07, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.14 and the
obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.02 and the last paragraph of Section 10.03 shall survive. 
 Section 4.02
Application of Trust Money. 
 Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money deposited with the Trustee
pursuant to Section 4.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own
Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to Securities of such series for the payment of which such money has been
deposited with the Trustee. 
  

 20 








 Section 4.03 Discharge of Liability on Securities of Any Series. 
 If this Section 4.03 is specified, as contemplated by Section 3.01, to be applicable to Securities of any series, the Company shall be deemed to
have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness on all the Outstanding Securities of such series, the obligation of the Company under this Indenture and the Securities of such series to pay the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on and any
Additional Amounts with respect to Securities of such series shall cease, terminate and be completely discharged, and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging such satisfaction and discharge, when

 (a) the Company has complied with the provisions of Section 4.01 of this Indenture (other than any additional conditions specified
pursuant to Section 3.01 and clause (3) of Section 4.01 and except that the Opinion of Counsel referred to in clause (5) of Section 4.01 shall state that it is based on a ruling by the Internal Revenue Service or other

 (b) the
Company has delivered to the Trustee a Company Request requesting such satisfaction and discharge, 
 (c) the Company has complied with any
other conditions specified pursuant to Section 3.01 to be applicable to the discharge of Securities of such series pursuant to this Section 4.03, and 
 (d) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided relating to the discharge of the
indebtedness on the Outstanding Securities of such series have been complied with. 
 Upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this
Section 4.03 with respect to all the Outstanding Securities of any series, the terms and conditions of such series, including the terms and conditions with respect thereto set forth in this Indenture, shall no longer be binding upon, or
applicable to, the Company; provided that, the Company shall not be discharged from any payment obligations in respect of Securities of such series which are deemed not to be Outstanding under clause (iii) of the definition thereof if such
obligations continue to be valid obligations of the Company under applicable law or pursuant to Section 3.05 or Section 3.06. 
 Section 4.04 Reinstatement. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Obligations
deposited with respect to Securities of any series in accordance with Section 4.01 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting
such application, the Company’s obligations under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series and the Securities of such series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 4.01
until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or Government Obligations in accordance with Section 4.01; provided, however, that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium (if any) or
interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or
Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE FIVE 
 REMEDIES 
 Section 5.01 Events of Default. 
 “Event of Default,” wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any
series, means any one of the following events which shall have occurred and be continuing (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment,
decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body), unless it is either inapplicable to a particular series or it is specifically deleted or modified in or pursuant to the supplemental indenture
or Board Resolution establishing such series of Securities or in the form of Security for such series: 
 (a) default in the payment of any
interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Security of that series when such interest or Additional Amounts become due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or 
  

 21 








 (b) default in the payment of the principal of or premium (if any) on any Security of that series at its
Maturity; or 
 (c) default in the deposit of any mandatory sinking fund payment, when and as due by the terms of a Security of that series, and
continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or 
 (d) default in the performance or breach of any covenant of the Company in this
Indenture (other than a covenant a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section 5.01 specifically dealt with or which has expressly been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of one or more series of
Securities other than that series), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 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 25% in principal amount of all Outstanding Securities a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or 
 (e) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or
proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or (B) a decree or order adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company under any applicable federal or state law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the
Company or of any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 90
consecutive days; or 
 (f) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or
proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it, of a petition or answer or
consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable federal or state law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
sequestrator or similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they
become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Company in furtherance of any such action; or 
 (g) any other Event of Default provided
with respect to Securities of that series in or pursuant to the supplemental indenture or Board Resolution establishing such series of Securities or in the form of Security for such series. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.01, if the principal of, premium (if any) or any interest on or any Additional Amounts with
respect to any Security is payable in a currency or currencies (including a composite currency) other than Dollars and such currency or currencies are not available to the Company for making payment thereof due to the imposition of exchange controls
or other circumstances beyond the control of the Company (a “Conversion Event”), the Company will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to Holders of the Securities by making such payment in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar
equivalent of the amount payable in such other currency, as determined by the Company by reference to the Exchange Rate, as such Exchange Rate is certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the date of such payment, or,
if such rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Exchange Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.01, any payment made under such circumstances in Dollars where the required payment is in
a currency other than Dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture. 
  

 22 








 Promptly after the occurrence of a Conversion Event with respect to the Securities of any series, the
Company shall give written notice thereof to the Trustee; and the Trustee, promptly after receipt of such notice, shall give notice thereof in the manner provided in Section 1.07 to the Holders of such series. Promptly after the making of any
payment in Dollars as a result of a Conversion Event with respect to the Securities of any series, the Company shall give notice in the manner provided in Section 1.07 to the Holders of such series, setting forth the applicable Exchange Rate
and describing the calculation of such payments. 
 Section 5.02 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to any Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or
the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of (i) the series with respect to which such default has occurred, in the case of an Event of Default described in clause (a), (b), (c), (d) (if
the Event of Default under clause (d) is with respect to less than all series of Securities then outstanding) or (g) of Section 5.01, or (ii) all series of Securities, in the case of an Event of Default described in clause
(d) (if the Event of Default under clause (d) is with respect to all series of Securities then outstanding), (e) or (f) of Section 5.01, may declare the principal amount (or, if any such Securities are Original Issue
Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of all of the Securities of the series with respect to which such default has occurred, or all series, as the case may be, to be due and
payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such amount shall become immediately due and payable. 
 At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any series (or of all series, as the case may be) has been made, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series (or of all series, as the case may be), by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if 
 (a) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay 
 (1) all overdue interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to, all Securities of that series (or of all series, as the case may
be), 
 (2) the unpaid principal of and premium (if any) on any Securities of that series (or of all series, as the case may be)
which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, the Securities’ Yield to Maturity),

 (3) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest and any Additional Amounts at the
rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, the Securities’ Yield to Maturity), and 
 (4) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder, the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances due to Trustee under Section 6.07, and all other amounts due under Section 6.07;

 (b) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series (or of all series, as the case may be), other than the nonpayment of the
principal of Securities of that series (or of all series, as the case may be) which have 
 (c) become due solely by such declaration of
acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13; and 
 (d) the rescission would not conflict with any final judgment
or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent
thereon.

 Section 5.03 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 
 The Company covenants that if 
 (a) default is made
in the payment of any installment of interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to, any Security of any series when such interest or Additional Amounts shall have become due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or

 (b) default is made in the payment of the principal of or premium (if any) on any Security at the Maturity thereof, 
 the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such
Securities for principal of, premium (if any) and interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to such Securities and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal, premium (if
any) and on any overdue interest or Additional Amounts, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities (or in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, the Securities’ Yield to Maturity), and, in addition thereto, such
further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and all other amounts due the Trustee under
Section 6.07. 
 If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an
express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities and
collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of
Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the
exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
 Section 5.04 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

 In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or
other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal (or lesser amount in the case
of Original Issue Discount Securities) of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue
principal of, premium (if any), interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to such Securities) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (or lesser amount in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) (and premium, if any) and interest and any Additional Amounts owing and
unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 
 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other
property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to
make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07. 
  

 24 








 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or
adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such
proceedings; provided, however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official. 
 Section 5.05 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities or Coupons. 
 All rights of action and claim under
this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto; any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought
in its own name as trustee of an express trust; after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under
Section 6.07, any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 
 Section 5.06 Application of Money Collected. 
 Any money collected by the Trustee
pursuant to this Article Five shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal of, premium (if any) or interest on or any Additional Amounts
with respect to such Securities, upon presentation of the Securities, and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07; 
 SECOND: To the
payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of, premium (if any) and interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to such Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without
preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal of, premium (if any), interest on and Additional Amounts, respectively; and 
 THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Company. 
 To the fullest extent allowed under applicable law,
if for the purpose of obtaining judgment against the Company in any court it is necessary to convert the sum due in respect of the principal of, premium (if any) or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of any series
(the “Required Currency”) into a currency in which a judgment will be rendered (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could
purchase in The City of New York the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the Business Day in the City of New York next preceding that on which final judgment is given. Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be liable for any shortfall
nor shall it benefit from any windfall in payments to Holders of Securities under this Section 5.06 caused by a change in exchange rates between the time the amount of a judgment against it is calculated as above and the time the Trustee
converts the Judgment Currency into the Required Currency to make payments under this Section 5.06 to Holders of Securities, but payment in full of such judgment shall discharge all amounts owed by the Company on the claim or claims underlying
such judgment. 
 Section 5.07 Limitation on Suits. 
 Subject to Section 5.08, no Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a
receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless 
 (a) an Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series shall have
occurred and be continuing and such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of such continuing Event of Default; 
  

 25 








 (b) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall
have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 
 (c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 
 (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that
series (or of all series, as the case may be); 
 it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in
any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or
to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders. 
 Section 5.08 Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. 
 Notwithstanding any other
provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of, premium (if any) and (subject to Section 3.07) interest on or any Additional Amounts with
respect to such Security on the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, and
such rights shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 5.09 Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

 If the Trustee or any Holder of any Security has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such
proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall, subject to any determination in such
proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 5.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 
 Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.06, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to
the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law
or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 5.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an
acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article Five or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

  

 26 








 Section 5.12 Control by Holders. 
 With respect to Securities of any series, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, relating to or arising under an Event of Default described in clause (a), (b), (c) or (g) of Section 5.01,
and with respect to all Securities the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all Outstanding Securities shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any
trust or power conferred on the Trustee, not relating to or arising under such an Event of Default, provided that in each such case 
 (a) 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 or would conflict with this Indenture or if the Trustee in good faith
shall, by a Responsible Officer, determine that the proceedings so directed would involve it in personal liability without adequate indemnity from such Holders or be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not taking part in such direction, and

 (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. 
 Section 5.13 Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 Subject to Section 5.08 and Section 9.02, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive any past default
hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, and the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all Outstanding Securities may on behalf of the Holders of all Securities waive any other past default hereunder and its
consequences, except in each case a default 
 (a) in the payment of the principal of, premium (if any) or interest on or any Additional Amounts
with respect to any Security, or 
 (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended
without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected. 
 Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any
Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. Any such waiver may (but need not)
be given in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Securities of such series. 
 Section 5.14 Undertaking for Costs.

 All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any
court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of
an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and
good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant. 
 Section 5.15 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. 
 The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or
take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so)
hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though
no such law had been enacted. 
  

 27 








 ARTICLE SIX 
 THE TRUSTEE 
 Section 6.01 Certain Duties and
Responsibilities. 
 (a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any series, 
 (1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (2) in the absence of bad faith on its
part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, and will be fully protected in so relying, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the
requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or
not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of any mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). 
 (b) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and
use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 
 (c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that

 (1) this Section 6.01(c) shall not be construed to limit the effect of Section 6.01(a); 
 (2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that
the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 
 (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series or of all series, determined as provided in Section 5.12, relating
to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series; and 
 (4) no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in
the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity, satisfactory to the Trustee in its reasonable
judgment, against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
 (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision
of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.01. 
 Section 6.02 Notice of Defaults. 
 Within 90 days after the occurrence of any Default
or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall give notice of such Default or Event of Default known to the Trustee to all Holders of Securities of such series in the manner provided in Section 1.07, unless
such default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium (if any) or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Security of
such series or in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee
of directors or

  

 28 








 
Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders of Securities of such series; and provided, further, that in the
case of any Default or Event of Default of the character specified in clause (d) of Section 5.01 with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 60 days after the occurrence thereof.

 Section 6.03 Certain Rights of Trustee. 
 Subject to the provisions of Section 6.01: 
 (a) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected
in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 
 (b) any request or direction of the Company
mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution; 
 (c) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee
(unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate; 
 (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good
faith and in reliance thereon; 
 (e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this
Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it
in compliance with such request or direction; 
 (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated
in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may
make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine, during business hours and upon reasonable
notice, the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney; 
 (g) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or
powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and, except for any Affiliates of the Trustee, the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or
attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder;

respect to the Securities of any series for which it is acting as Trustee unless either (1) a Responsible Officer shall have actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (2) written notice of such Default or Event of Default
shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company or any other obligor on such Securities or by any Holder of such Securities; and 
 (i) the
Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 
  

 29 








 Section 6.04 Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. 
 The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the
Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to
execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Securities and perform its obligations hereunder, and that the statements made by it in a Statement of Eligibility and Qualification on Form T-1 supplied to the Company are true and accurate,
subject to the qualifications set forth therein. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Section 6.08 and Section 6.13, may otherwise deal with the
Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent. 
 Section 6.06 Money Held in Trust. 
 Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds
except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Company. 
 Section 6.07 Compensation and Reimbursement. 
 The Company agrees: 
 (a) to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as shall be agreed upon in writing from time to time for all services rendered by it hereunder
(which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 
 (b) except
as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable
compensation and the reasonable expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith; and 
 (c) to indemnify the Trustee and each of its directors, officers, employees, agents and/or representatives for, and to hold each of them harmless against,
any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense incurred without negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on each of their part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder,

 The provisions of this Section 6.07 and any lien arising hereunder shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee or the discharge of the

 30 








 Section 6.08 Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. 
 If the Trustee shall have or acquire any conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, it shall either eliminate such conflicting
interest or resign to the extent, in the manner and with the effect, and subject to the conditions, provided in the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. For purposes of Section 310(b)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act and to the extent permitted
thereby, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a Trustee under (i) this Indenture with respect to debt Securities of more than one series, or (ii) any indenture relating to subordinated debt
securities of the Company. 
 Section 6.09 Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state (or the District of
Columbia) authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.09, the combined capital and
surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 6.09, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article Six. 
 The Indenture
shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of Sections 310(a)(1), 310(a)(2) and 310(a)(5) of the Trust Indenture Act. 
 Section 6.10 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 
 (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no
appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article Six shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. 
 (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the
instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the resigning Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition at the expense of
the Company any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 (c)
The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. If the
instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the removed Trustee within 30 days after the receipt of such notice of removal, the removed Trustee may petition at the expense of the
Company any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 (d) If
at any time: 
 (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 6.08 after written request therefor by the Company or by
any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 
 (2) the Trustee shall cease to be
eligible under Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder of Securities, or 
 (3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or
control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or
(ii) subject to

  

 31 








 
Section 5.14, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 
 (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, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a

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.

the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 
 Section 6.11
Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 
 (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities,
every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to 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 of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring
Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all
property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder, subject, nevertheless to its lien, if any, provided for in Section 6.07. 
 (b)
In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series 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, each
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 and 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 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 and each 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 any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all 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. 
  

 32 








 (c) Upon request of any such 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 Section 6.11(a) or Section 6.11(b), as the case may be. 
 (d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under
this Article Six. 
 Section 6.12 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 
 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 the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation
shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article Six, 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; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor
Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided, provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee
will apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation. 
 Section 6.13 Preferential Collection of Claims
Against Company. 
 If the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities (other than by
reason of a relationship described in Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act), the Trustee shall be subject to any and all applicable provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company or such other
obligor. 
 Section 6.14 Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 
 The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents that shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities issued upon original issue and upon exchange, registration of
transfer or partial redemption or pursuant to Section 3.06, 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 shall at all times be a corporation organized and
doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50 million or equivalent amount expressed in a foreign currency and subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state (or the District of Columbia) authority or authority of such country. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said
supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.14, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of
condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.14, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in
this Section 6.14. 
 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
continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section 6.14, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

  

 33 








 An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to 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 to 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 6.14, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall mail written
notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders 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 6.14.

 The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this
Section 6.14. 
 If an appointment is made pursuant to this Section 6.14, the Securities may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the
Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following form:

hereunder, such Authenticating Agent shall also be obligated: (i) to furnish to the Security Registrar promptly all information necessary to enable the Security Registrar to maintain at all times an accurate and current Security Register; and
(ii) prior to authenticating any Security denominated in a foreign currency, to ascertain from the Company the units of such foreign currency that are required to be determined by the Company pursuant to Section 3.02.

held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect
to such sums.

inclusive, or any covenant added for the benefit of any series of Securities as contemplated by Section 3.01 (unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01) if before or after the time for such compliance the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series entitled to the benefit of such covenant or condition (acting as one class) shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with
such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee
in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 
 Section 10.07 Additional Amounts. 

If the Securities of a series expressly provide for the payment of Additional Amounts, the Company will pay to the Holder of any Security of such series
Additional Amounts as expressly provided therein. Whenever in this Indenture

  

 40 








 
there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the principal of, or premium (if any) or interest on any Security of any series or the net proceeds received from the sale or exchange of any
Security of any series, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in this Section 10.07 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect
thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.07 and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where
such express mention is not made. 
 If the Securities of a series provide for the payment of Additional Amounts, at least 10 days prior to the
first Interest Payment Date with respect to that series of Securities (or if the Securities of that series will not bear interest prior to Maturity, the first day on which a payment of principal and any premium is made), and at least 10 days prior
to each date of payment of principal and any premium or interest if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned Officers’ Certificate, the Company shall furnish the Trustee and the Company’s
principal Paying Agent or Paying Agents, if other than the Trustee, with an Officers’ Certificate instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent or Paying Agents whether such payment of principal of and any premium or interest on the Securities
of that series shall be made to Holders of Securities of that series who are United States Aliens without withholding for or on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge described in the Securities of that series. If any such
withholding shall be required, then such Officers’ Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to be withheld on such payments to such Holders of Securities and the Company will pay to such Paying Agent the Additional
Amounts required by this Section 10.07. The Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for, and to hold them harmless against any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part
arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by any of them in reliance on any Officers’ Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section 10.07. 
 ARTICLE ELEVEN 
 REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 
 Section 11.01 Applicability of Article. 
 Securities of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series) in
accordance with this Article Eleven. 
 Section 11.02 Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. 
 Unless otherwise provided with respect to the Securities of a series as contemplated by Section 3.01, the election of the Company to redeem any
Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 40 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company
(unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration
of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. Any election to
redeem Securities will be revocable until the Company gives a notice of redemption pursuant to Section 11.04 hereof to the Holders of Securities to be redeemed. 
 Section 11.03 Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed. 
 If less than all the
Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not
previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and that may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series or any
integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series or of the principal amount of global Securities of such series.

  

 41 








 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Security Registrar in writing of the Securities
selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 
 For
all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal
amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed. 
 Section 11.04 Notice of Redemption. 
 Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 1.07 to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed not less than 30 nor more than 60
days prior to the Redemption Date. 
 All notices of redemption shall state: 
 (a) the Redemption Date, 
 (b) the Redemption Price, 
 (c) if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal
amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed, 
 (d) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price (together with accrued and unpaid
interest and any Additional Amounts to the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 11.06 hereof) will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed, 
 (e) that unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price and any applicable accrued interest, interest on each such Security, or the
portion thereof, to be redeemed will cease to accrue on and after the Redemption Date, 
 (f) the place or places where such Securities are to
be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, 
 (g) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case, and 
 (h) the “CUSIP” number, if applicable. 
 A notice of redemption as contemplated by Section 1.07 need not identify particular Securities to be redeemed. Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the
Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. 
 Section 11.05 Deposit of Redemption Price. 

 On or before 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if
the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued
interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date. 
 Section 11.06
Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 
 Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the
Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear
interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (and any Additional Amounts) to

  

 42 








 
the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or
more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.07. 
 If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal of and premium (if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the
rate prescribed therefor in the Security or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, the Securities’ Yield to Maturity. 
 Section 11.07 Securities Redeemed in Part. 
 Any Security that is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a
Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series and Stated Maturity, of any authorized
denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. 
 Unless otherwise specified for a series of Securities as contemplated by Section 3.01, the Company and any Affiliate of the Company may at any time purchase or otherwise acquire Securities in the
open market or by private agreement. Such acquisition shall not operate as or be deemed for any purpose to be a redemption of the indebtedness represented by such Securities. Any Securities purchased or acquired by the Company may be delivered to
the Trustee and, upon such delivery, the indebtedness represented thereby shall be deemed to be satisfied. Section 3.09 shall apply to all Securities so delivered. 
 ARTICLE TWELVE 
 SINKING FUNDS 
 Section 12.01 Applicability of Article. 
 The provisions of this Article Twelve shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of such series. 
 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”. Unless otherwise provided by the terms of Securities of any
series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.02. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of
such series. 
 Section 12.02 Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 
 The Company (1) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) and (2) may apply as a credit
Securities of a series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each
case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such series; provided that such Securities
have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such
sinking payment shall be reduced accordingly. 
  

 43 








 Section 12.03 Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 
 Not less than 45 days prior (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities,
the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by
payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivery of or by crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 12.02 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than
30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.03 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the
name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.04. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Section 11.06 and
Section 11.07. 
 ARTICLE THIRTEEN 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 13.01 Company’s Option to
Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 The Company may at its option, at any time elect to have either Section 13.02 or
Section 13.03 applied to the Outstanding Securities of any series upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article Thirteen. 
 Section 13.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 
 Upon the Company’s exercise of the option provided in
Section 13.01 applicable to this Section 13.02, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to the Outstanding Securities of any series on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied
(hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, such legal defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed (i) to have paid and discharged its obligations under the Outstanding Securities of such series; provided, however, that
the Securities of such series will continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for purposes of Section 13.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (A) and (B) below, and (ii) to have satisfied all its
other obligations under the Securities of such series and this Indenture insofar as the Securities of such series are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the
following, which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of the Securities of such series to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 13.04 and as more fully set forth in
such Section 13.04, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities of such series when such payments are due, (B) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under
Section 3.04, Section 3.05, Section 3.06, Section 10.02 and Section 10.03, (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (D) this Article Thirteen. Subject to compliance with
this Article Thirteen, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 13.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 13.03. 
 Section 13.03 Covenant Defeasance. 
 Upon the Company’s exercise of the option
provided in Section 13.01 applicable to this Section 13.03, (i) the Company shall be released from its obligations with respect to the Securities of such series under Section 8.01, Section 10.06 and Section 10.07, and
any covenants provided pursuant to Section 3.01 for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities (unless otherwise so provided pursuant to Section 3.01), (ii) the occurrence of an event specified in Section 5.01(c) or
Section 5.01(d) shall not be deemed to be an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied, and (iii) the Securities of such series will thereafter be
deemed not to be “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed
“Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Securities of such series, the Company may omit to comply with and
shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such Section or clause whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or clause or by reason of any reference in
any such Section or clause to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby. 
  


 44 








 Section 13.04 Conditions to Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 13.02 or Section 13.03 to the then Outstanding Securities of any series:

 (a) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements
of Section 6.09 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Article Thirteen applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the
benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such series, (A) money in an amount, or (B) Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide,
not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants or a nationally recognized investment
banking firm expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, (if such firms at such time customarily deliver such certifications, and, if not, such certification may be from the principal financial officer of the Company), to
pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of, premium, if any, and each installment of interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of such
series on the Stated Maturity of such principal or installment of interest in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and of the Securities of such series. 
 (b) In the event of an election to have Section 13.02 apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
stating that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (y) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case
to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit, defeasance and discharge and
will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred; 
 (c) In the event of an election to have Section 13.03 apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and covenant defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same
amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance had not occurred; 
 (d)
The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, together stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to either the legal defeasance under Section 13.02 or the covenant
defeasance under Section 13.03 (as the case may be) have been complied with; 
 (e) Such legal defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not
result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an investment company as defined in the Investment Company Act, or such trust shall be qualified under such act or exempt from regulation thereunder; 
 Section 13.05 Deposited Money and Government Obligations to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money and Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with
the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee (solely for purposes of this Section 13.05 and Section 13.06, the Trustee and any such other trustee are referred to collectively as the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 13.04 in
respect of the Securities of such series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities of such series and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of the Securities of such series, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal (and premium, if any) and interest and any
Additional Amounts, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against

  

 45 








 
any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 13.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other
than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the Outstanding Securities. Anything in this Article Thirteen to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time
upon Company Request any money or Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 13.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants (or a nationally recognized investment banking firm or the
principal financial officer of the Company, as appropriate) expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent legal
defeasance or covenant defeasance. 
 Section 13.06 Reinstatement. 
 If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with Section 13.02 or Section 13.03 by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority
enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Securities of such series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article
Thirteen until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 13.02 or Section 13.03; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of (and premium, if any)
or interest or Additional Amounts on any Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of the Securities of such series to receive such payment from the money held by the
Trustee or the Paying Agent. 
 Section 13.07 Deposited Money and Government Obligations to be Held in Trust. 
 Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money and Government Obligations (or other property as may be provided pursuant to
Section 3.01) (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 13.04 in respect of any Securities of any series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such
Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due
thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except as provided herein and except to the extent required by law.

any series shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to such 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 setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that such notice was given as provided in Section 14.02 and, if applicable, Section 14.04. Each copy shall be signed and verified by the affidavits of the permanent
chairman and secretary of the meeting and one such copy shall be delivered to the Company, and another to the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee, the latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted at the meeting. Any record so signed and
verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated.
