Acts of Holders; Record Dates.


 


(a)       Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided
by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially
similar tenor signed (either physically or by means of a facsimile or an electronic transmission, provided that such electronic
transmission is transmitted through the facilities of a Depositary) by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing;
and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are
delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action
embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing
such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient
for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 315 of the Trust Indenture Act) conclusive in favor of the
Trustee and the Company if made in the manner provided in this Section.

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
ownership, principal amount and serial numbers of Securities held by any Person, and the date of commencement of such Person’s
holding of same, shall be proved by the Security Register.


 


(d)       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, regardless of whether notation of such action is made upon such Security.


 


(e)       Without
limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to give or take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so
with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which
may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any different part of such principal amount.


 


(f)       The Company may set any day as the record date for the purpose of determining the Holders
of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other Act provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of Securities of such series, but the
Company shall have no obligation to do so. With regard to any record date set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding
Securities of the relevant series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled
to give or take the relevant action, regardless of whether such Holders remain Holders after such record date.

The Company or the Trustee, by notice to the others, may designate additional or different
addresses for subsequent notices or communications.


 


(c)        
All notices and communications (other than those sent to Holders) shall be deemed to have

Notice to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders 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 his address 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 any case where notice to Holders
is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall
affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed
shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, regardless of whether such Holder actually receives such notice.


 


 


 






    	 	11	 



     


    

 


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.


 


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 by mail, then
such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose
hereunder.


 


1.8         
Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts
with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act that is required under such Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the latter
provision 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 latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or excluded, as
the case may be.


 


1.9         
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.


 


1.10        Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company
shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.


 


1.11        Separability Clause. 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.


 


1.12        Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities express or implied,
shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or any legal

Law. THIS INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK.


 


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 (other than a provision of the Securities of any series that specifically states that such provision
shall apply in lieu of this Section 1.14)) payment of interest or principal and any premium 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 for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

1.15       
Securities in a Composite Currency, Currency Unit or Foreign Currency. Unless otherwise
specified in an Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 3.1 of this Indenture with respect to a particular
series of Securities, whenever for purposes of this Indenture any action may be taken by the Holders of a specified percentage
in aggregate principal amount of Securities of all series or all series affected by a particular action at the time Outstanding
and, at such time, there are Outstanding Securities of any series which are denominated in a coin, currency or currencies other
than Dollars (including, but not limited to, any composite currency, currency units or Foreign Currency), then the principal amount
of Securities of such series which shall be deemed to be Outstanding for the purpose of taking such action shall be that amount
of Dollars that could be obtained for such amount at the Market Exchange Rate. For purposes of this Section 1.15, the
term “Market Exchange Rate” shall mean the noon Dollar buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers
of such currency or currencies as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, as of the most recent available date. If such
Market Exchange Rate is not so available for any reason with respect to such currency, the Trustee shall use, in its sole discretion
and without liability on its part, such quotation of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as of the most recent available date,
or quotations or rates of exchange from one or more major banks in The City of New York or in the country of issue of the currency
in question, which for purposes of euros shall be Brussels, Belgium, or such other quotations or rates of exchange as the Trustee
shall deem appropriate. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply in determining the equivalent principal amount in respect
of Securities of a series denominated in a currency other than Dollars in connection with any action taken by Holders of Securities
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.


 


All decisions and determinations
of the Trustee regarding the Market Exchange Rate or any alternative determination provided for in the preceding paragraph shall
be in its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive to the extent permitted by law for all purposes
and irrevocably binding upon the Issuer and all Holders.


 


1.16       
Payment in Required Currency; Judgment Currency. The Company agrees, to the fullest
extent that it may effectively do so under applicable law, that (a) if for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is
necessary to convert the sum due in respect of the principal of or interest on 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 day on which final unappealable judgment is entered, unless
such day is not a Banking Day, then, to the extent permitted by applicable law, 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 Banking Day next preceding the day on which final unappealable judgment is entered and (b) its obligations
under this Indenture to make payments in the Required Currency (i) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, or any recovery
pursuant to any judgment (regardless of whether entered in accordance with subclause (a)), in any currency other than the Required
Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in the actual receipt, by the payee, of the full amount
of the Required Currency expressed to be payable in respect of such payments, (ii) shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional
cause of action for the purpose of recovering in the Required Currency the amount, if any, by which such actual receipt shall fall
short of the full amount of the Required Currency so expressed to be payable and (iii) shall not be affected by judgment being
obtained for any other sum due under this Indenture.

Liability. No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of or contained in this Indenture or of or contained
in any Security or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, or in any Security or because of the creation of
any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, member, officer, manager or director,
as such, past, present or future, of the Company or any successor Person, either directly or through the Company or any successor
Person, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise,

the Board Resolution referred to above and (subject to Section 3.3) set forth, or determined in the manner provided,
in the Officer’s Certificate referred to above or in any such indenture supplemental hereto.


 


 


 






    	 	24	 



     


    

 


All Securities of any
one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened, without the consent of
the Holders, for increases in the aggregate principal amount of such series of Securities and issuances of additional Securities
of such series or for the establishment of additional terms with respect to the Securities of such series.


 


If any of the terms
of the series are established by action taken by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of an appropriate record of such action
shall be certified by an authorized officer or other authorized person on behalf of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at
or prior to the delivery of the Officer’s Certificate setting forth, or providing the manner for determining, the terms of
the series.


 


With respect to Securities
of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, such Board Resolution or Officer’s Certificate may provide general terms for
Securities of such series and provide either that the specific terms of particular Securities of such series shall be specified
in a Company Order or that such terms shall be determined by the Company or one or more agents thereof designated in an Officer’s
Certificate, in accordance with a Company Order.


 


3.2

integral multiple thereof.


 


3.3         
Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. The Securities shall be executed on
behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its Chief Executive Officer, its President, its Chief Financial Officer or
any of its Vice Presidents and need not be attested. 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; provided, however, that in
the case of Securities offered in a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Securities from time to
time in accordance with such other procedures (including, without limitation, the receipt by the Trustee of oral or electronic
instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agents, thereafter promptly confirmed in writing) acceptable to the Trustee
as may be specified by or pursuant to a Company Order delivered to the Trustee prior to the time of the first authentication of
Securities of such series. If the forms or terms of the Securities of the series have been established in or pursuant to one or
more Board Resolutions as permitted by Section 2.1 and Section 3.1, in authenticating such Securities,
and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled
to receive such documents as it may reasonably request. The Trustee shall also be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.1)
shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating,


 


 


 






    	 	25	 



     


    

 


(a)       if the form or forms of such Securities has been established in or pursuant to a Board Resolution
as permitted by Section 2.1, that each such form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;


 


(b)       if the terms of such Securities have been, or in the case of Securities of a series offered
in a Periodic Offering will be, established in or pursuant to a Board Resolution as permitted by Section 3.1, that
such terms have been, or in the case of Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering will be, established in conformity
with the provisions of this Indenture, subject, in the case of Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, to any conditions
specified in such Opinion of Counsel; 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 and assumptions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally
binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to the following limitations: (i) bankruptcy,
insolvency, moratorium, reorganization, liquidation, fraudulent conveyance or transfer and other similar laws of general applicability
relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights, or to general equity principles, (ii) the availability of
equitable remedies being subject to the discretion of the court to which application therefor is made; and (iii) such other usual
and customary matters as shall be specified in such Opinion of Counsel.


 


If such form or forms
or terms have been so established, 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 which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.


 


Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 3.1 and of the preceding paragraph, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued
at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officer’s Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.1
or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the time of
authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original
issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued.


 


With respect to Securities
of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, the Trustee may rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any of such Securities,
on the form or forms and terms thereof and the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof, upon the Opinion
of Counsel and the other documents delivered pursuant to Section 2.1 and Section 3.1 and this Section,
as applicable, in connection with the first authentication of Securities of such series.


 


 


 






    	 	26	 



     


    

 


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 of an authorized
officer, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been
duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 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 3.9 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.


 


3.4         
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 which 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 and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other
variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities.


 


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 the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal
amount of Definitive Securities of the same series and tenor 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.


 


3.5         
Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall cause to be
kept at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York or in any other office or agency
of the Company in a Place of Payment required by Section 10.2 a register (the register maintained in such office being
herein sometimes 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. The Trustee is hereby
appointed as the initial “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities
as herein provided, and its corporate trust office in New York City, which, at the date hereof, is located at [_____________________],
New York, New York [_____], is the initial office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan where the Securities Register will be maintained.
The Company may at any time replace such Security Registrar, change such office or agency or act as its own Security Registrar.
The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any change of the Security Registrar or of the location of such office
or agency.


 


 


 






    	 	27	 



     


    

 


Upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 10.2
for such purpose, the Company shall execute, 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 tenor, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate
principal amount.


 


At the option of the
Holder, Securities of any series (except a Global Security) may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series and 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. 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 exchanges pursuant to Section 3.4, Section 9.6 or Section 11.7 not involving any
transfer.


 


The Company shall not
be required (a) 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 that series selected for redemption
under Section 11.3 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (b) 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.


 


Notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Indenture and except as otherwise specified with respect to any particular series of Securities as contemplated
by Section 3.1, a Global Security representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred,
except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such
Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series
or a nominee of such successor Depositary. Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of, transfer of, or in
exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security shall be a Global Security except as provided in the two paragraphs immediately following.


 


 


 






    	 	28	 



     


    

 


If at any time the
Depositary for any Securities of a series represented by one or more Global Securities notifies the Company that it is unwilling
or unable to continue as Depositary for such Securities or if at any time the Depositary for such Securities shall no longer be
eligible to continue as Depositary under Section 3.1 or ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange
Act, the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to such Securities. If a successor Depositary for such Securities
is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the
Company’s election pursuant to Section 3.1 that such Securities be represented by one or more Global Securities
shall no longer be effective and the Company will execute and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication
and delivery of Definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series in definitive registered
form without coupons, in any authorized denominations, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global
Security or Securities representing such Securities in exchange for such Global Security or Securities registered in the names
of such Persons as the Depositary shall direct.


 


The Company may at
any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Securities of any series issued in the form of one or more Global Securities
shall no longer be represented by a Global Security or Securities. In such event, the Company will execute and the Trustee, upon
receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of the Definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and
deliver, Securities of such series in definitive registered form without coupons, in any authorized denominations, in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security or Securities representing such Securities in exchange for
such Global Security or Securities registered in the names of such Persons as the Depositary shall direct.


 


If specified by the
Company pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to Securities represented by a Global Security, the Depositary for such
Global Security may surrender such Global Security in exchange in whole or in part for Securities of the same series and tenor
in definitive registered form on such terms as are acceptable to the Company, the Trustee and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Company
shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Securities in definitive
registered form, shall authenticate and deliver, without service charge,


 


(a)       to the Person specified by such Depositary, a new Security or Securities of the same series
and tenor, of any authorized denominations as requested by such Person, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange
for such Person’s beneficial interest in the Global Security; and


 


(b)       to such Depositary, a new Global Security in a denomination equal to the difference, if any,
between the principal amount of the surrendered Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of Securities authenticated
and delivered pursuant to clause (a) above.


 


Every Person who takes
or holds any beneficial interest in a Global Security agrees that:


 


(a)       the
Company and the Trustee may deal with the Depositary as sole owner of the Global Security and as the authorized representative
of such Person;


 


 


 






    	 	29	 



     


    

 


(b)       such
Person’s rights in the Global Security shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to those established
by law and agreement between such Person and the Depositary and/or direct and indirect participants of the Depositary;


 


(c)       the
Depositary and its participants make book-entry transfers of beneficial ownership among, and receive and transmit distributions
of principal and interest on the Global Securities to, such Persons in accordance with their own procedures; and


 


(d)       none
of the Company, the Trustee, nor any agent of any of them will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records
relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising
or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.


 


3.6         
Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. If any mutilated Security is surrendered
to the Trustee, together with, in proper cases, such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company or the Trustee to
save each of them and any agent of any of them harmless, the Company shall execute 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 (a) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (b) 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 upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new
Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.


 


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.


 


Upon the issuance of
any new Security under this Section, 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 fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected
therewith.


 


Every new Security
of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional
contractual obligation of the Company regardless of whether 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 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.

3.7         
Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. Except as otherwise provided as contemplated
by Section 3.1 with respect to any series of Securities, interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date 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.


 


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 (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 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, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.


 


Subject to the foregoing provisions of
this Section, 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.


 


 


 






    	 	31	 



     


    

 


3.8         
Persons Deemed Owners. Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1
with respect to any series of Securities, prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the
Trustee and any agent thereof 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 and any premium and (subject to Section 3.5 and Section 3.7)
any interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, regardless of whether such Security be overdue, and none of
the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


 


No holder of any beneficial
interest in any Global Security held on its behalf by a Depositary shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to such
Global Security, and such Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of thereof as the owner of such Global
Security for all purposes whatsoever.


 


3.9         
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 and shall be promptly canceled by it. 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 may deliver
to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder
which the Company has not issued and sold, 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, except as expressly permitted
by this Indenture. All canceled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with its customary practices,
and the Trustee shall thereafter deliver to the Company a certificate with respect to such disposition from time to time upon written
request.


 


3.10         
Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1
for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a year of twelve 30-day
months.


 


3.11         
CUSIP or CINS Numbers. The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP”
or “CINS” numbers (if then generally in use, and in addition to the other identification numbers printed on the Securities),
and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” or “CINS” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to
Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such “CUSIP”
or “CINS” 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 “CUSIP” or “CINS” numbers.

REMEDIES


 


5.1         
Events of Default. “Event of Default,” wherever used herein with
respect to Securities of any series, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether
it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be 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):


 


(a)       default in the payment of any interest upon any Security of that series when it becomes due
and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or


 


(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 sinking fund payment when due; or


 


(d)       default in the performance, or breach, of the covenant set forth in Section 8.1;
or


 


(e)       default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant in this Indenture (other than the covenant
in Section 8.1 or any other covenant a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically
dealt with or which has expressly been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of 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 the
Outstanding Securities of that series 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


 


(f)       the Company or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy

(g)       a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that
(i) is for relief against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case, (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company
or any Significant Subsidiary for all or substantially all of its property, or (iii) orders the liquidation or winding up of the
Company or any Significant Subsidiary; and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 30 consecutive days; or


 


(h)       any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series in accordance
with Section 3.1.


 


5.2         
Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default with respect
to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders
of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or,
if the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified
in the terms of that series), together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, of all of the Securities of that series 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 principal amount (or specified amount), together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall become immediately
due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in clause (f) or (g) of Section 5.1
occurs, the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding shall be due and payable immediately without further action or notice.


 


At any time after such
a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment
of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article Five provided, the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, 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:


 


(i)       all overdue interest on all Securities of that series,


 


(ii)       the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of that series which have become
due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and any interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such
Securities,


 


(iii)       to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the
rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and


 


 


 






    	 	35	 



     


    

 


(iv)       all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and


 


(b)       
all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment
of the principal of Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured
or waived as provided in Section 5.13.


 


No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
default or impair any right consequent thereon.


 


5.3         
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 any Security when such interest becomes 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
and any premium and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue
principal and any premium and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, 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.


 


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.


 


5.4         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,
their property or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal 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 or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding
or otherwise,


 


 


 






    	 	36	 



     


    

 


(a)       to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest
owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order
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 moneys 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, if 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 6.7.


 


No provision of this
Indenture 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, compromise, 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 proceeding; provided, however, that the Trustee
may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors’
or other similar committee.


 


5.5         Trustee
May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities
may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any
proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of
an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities
in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.


 


5.6         
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 or any premium or interest, 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 6.7;


 


SECOND: To the payment
of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and any premium and interest on the 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 and any premium and interest, respectively; and


 


 


 






    	 	37	 



     


    

 


THIRD: The balance, if
any, to the Company.


 


5.7         
Limitation on Suits. 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)       such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default
with respect to the Securities of that series;


 


(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;


 


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 such Holders.


 


5.8         
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 and any premium and (subject to Section 3.5 and Section 3.7) interest
on 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, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent
of such Holder.


 


5.9         
Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder 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, subject to any determination in
such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall 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.


 


 


 






    	 	38	 



     


    

 


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 3.6, 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.


 


5.11         
Delay or Omission Not Waiver. To fullest extent permitted by applicable law, 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.


 


5.12         
Control by Holders. The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of any 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, with respect to the Securities
of such series; provided, however, that:


 


(a)       such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture;


 


(b)       the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent
with such direction; and


 


(c)       subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the Trustee shall have the right to
decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that the proceeding so directed would involve
the Trustee in personal liability.


 


5.13         
Waiver of Past Defaults. By written notice to the Company and the Trustee, the Holders
of not less than a majority in 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, except:


 


(a)       a continuing default in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any
Security of such series, or


 


(b)       a default in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be
modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series 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.

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, suffered
or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant, other than the Trustee, 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,
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; but the provisions of this Section 5.14 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Company, to any
suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10%
in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of
the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security on or after the Stated Maturity or Maturities

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 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.

THE TRUSTEE


 


6.1         
Certain Duties and Responsibilities.


 


(a)       Except during the continuance of an Event of Default,


 


(i)       the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set
forth in this Indenture and as are provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into
this Indenture against the Trustee; and


 


(ii)         in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, 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 which 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 they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.


 


(b)       
In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, 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
man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.


 


 


 






    	 	40	 



     


    

 


(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


 


(i)       this Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of Subsection (a) of this Section;


 


(ii)      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;


 


(iii)       the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by
it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
of any series, given pursuant to 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


 


(iv)       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 against such risk
or liability is not reasonably assured to it.


 


(d)       Regardless of whether 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.


 


6.2         
Notice of Defaults. Within 90 days after the occurrence of any Default hereunder with
respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Securities of such series, as their
names and addresses appear in the Security Register, notice of such Default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Default
shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal
of or any premium or interest on any Security of such series or in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to
Securities of such series, the Trustee may withhold from Holders of Securities notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default
if the Trustee in good faith determines 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 of the character specified in Section 5.1(c)
with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 90 days after the occurrence
thereof and that in the case of any Default of the character specified in Section 5.1(e) with respect to Securities
of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 180 days after the occurrence thereof.

and, subject to Sections 310(b) and 311 of the Trust Indenture Act and Section 6.8, Section 6.9
and Section 6.13, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating

performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon all
property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of (and premium,
if any) or interest on particular Securities.


 


Without limiting any
rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an
Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(f) or Section 5.1(g), the expenses (including the reasonable
charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services of the Trustee are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any applicable Bankruptcy Law.

Section 6.7 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the Legal Defeasance of the Securities.


 


6.8

the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus
required by the Trust Indenture Act, subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State 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, 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. The Trustee shall not be an obligor upon the Securities
or an Affiliate thereof. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section,
it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article Six.


 


6.10         
Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.


 


(a)       No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant

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 Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee
may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such
series.


 


 


 






    	 	44	 



     


    

 


(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 principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to
the Company.


 


(d)       
If at any time:


 


(i)       
the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act
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


 


(ii)        the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.9 and shall fail to resign
after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or


 


(iii)       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, (A) the Company
by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (B) subject to 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 successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood
that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at
any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable
requirements of Section 6.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence
of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the
successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements
of Section 6.11, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede
the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have
been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, any
Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself 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.


 


 


 






    	 	45	 



     


    

 


(f)        
The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect
to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series to all
Holders of Securities of such series in the manner provided in Section 1.7. Each notice shall include the name of the
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.


 


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.


 


(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 (i) 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, (ii) 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 (iii) 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.


 


 


 






    	 	46	 



     


    

 


(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 paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, 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 and the Trust Indenture Act.


 


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.


 


6.13         
Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. Reference is made to Section 311
of the Trust Indenture Act. For purposes of Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act,


 


(a)       the term “cash transaction” means any transaction in which full payment
for goods or securities sold is made within seven days after delivery of the goods or securities in currency or in checks or other
orders drawn upon banks or bankers and payable upon demand;


 


(b)       the term “self-liquidating paper” means any draft, bill of exchange, acceptance
or obligation which is made, drawn, negotiated or incurred by the Company for the purpose of financing the purchase, processing,
manufacturing, shipment, storage or sale of goods, wares or merchandise and which is secured by documents evidencing title to,
possession of, or a lien upon, the goods, wares or merchandise or the receivables or proceeds arising from the sale of the goods,
wares or merchandise previously constituting the security, provided the security is received by the Trustee simultaneously with
the creation of the creditor relationship with the Company arising from the making, drawing, negotiating or incurring of the draft,
bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation.


 


6.14         
Appointment of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent
or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate
Securities of such series issued upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.6,
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, authorized
under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject
to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. 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,
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, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified
in this Section.


 


 


 






    	 	47	 



     


    

 


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 all
or substantially all of 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, without the execution or filing of any paper or
any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.


 


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, 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 of Securities
of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, 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.


 


Except with respect
to an Authenticating Agent appointed at the request of the Company, the Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from
time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section 6.14, and the Trustee shall be entitled to
be reimbursed by the Company for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 6.7.

If an appointment with
respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section 6.14, the Securities of such series may have endorsed
thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following
form:

Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

cost of mailing to such Holders the form of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such application.


 


If the Trustee shall
elect not to afford such applicants access to such information, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of such applicants,
mail to each Holder whose name and address appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.2(a)
a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which is specified in such request, with reasonable promptness after a tender
to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing,
unless within five days after such tender the Trustee shall mail to such applicants and file with the SEC, together with a copy
of the material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary
to the best interest of the Holders or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify the basis
of such opinion. If the SEC, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so filed, shall
enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or more of such objections,
the SEC shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met and shall enter
an order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all such Holders with reasonable promptness after the
entry of such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants
respecting their application.


 


(c)       Every Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company and
the Trustee that none of the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of any of them shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure
of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Holders in accordance with Section 7.2(b), regardless
of the source from which such information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing
any material pursuant to a request made under Section 7.2(b).

addresses appear in the Security Register. A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Holders, be filed
by the Trustee with each stock exchange upon which any Securities are listed, with the SEC and with the Company. The Company will
notify the Trustee when any Securities are listed on any stock exchange.

the SEC may from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) which the Company may be required to file with the SEC pursuant
to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act; or, if the Company is not required to file information,
documents or reports pursuant to either of said Sections, then it shall file with the Trustee and the SEC, in accordance with rules
and regulations prescribed from time to time by the SEC, such of the supplementary and periodic information, documents and reports
which may be required pursuant to Section 13 of the Exchange Act in respect of a security listed and registered on

consent of whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver

this Indenture, or


 


(c)       modify any of the provisions of this Section 9.2, Section 5.8, Section 5.13
or Section 10.6, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture
cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby, provided, however,
that this clause (c) shall not be deemed to require the consent of any Holder with respect to changes in the references to “the
Trustee” and concomitant changes in this Section, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the requirements
of Section 6.11(b) and Section 9.1(h); or


 


(d)       waive a redemption payment with respect to any Security; provided, however, that any purchase

Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture
under this Article Nine, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a
part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder
shall be bound thereby.

Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures. Securities of any series authenticated
and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article Nine may, and shall if required by the
Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company
shall so determine, new Securities of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to any
such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange
for Outstanding Securities of such series.

Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. The Company covenants and agrees for the
benefit of each series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of and any premium and interest on the
Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture.


 


10.2         
Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain in the Borough of Manhattan,
The City of New York, an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or Registrar or agent of the Trustee or Registrar)
where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered
for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that
series and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change
in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency

The Company may also
from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or
surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation
or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan,
The City of New York for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission
and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.


 


Except as otherwise
specified with respect to a series of Securities as contemplated by Section 3.1, the Company hereby initially designates

act as its own Paying Agent, with respect to any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of
and any premium or interest on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal and any premium and interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid
to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to
act.


 


Whenever the Company
shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, it will, prior to each due date of the principal of and any
premium or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal and any
premium or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium
or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure
so to act. For purposes of this Section 10.3, should a due date for principal of and any premium or interest on, or
sinking fund payment with respect to any series of Securities not be on a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next Business
Day without any interest for the period from the due date until such Business Day.


 


The Company will cause
each Paying Agent for any series of Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which
such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:


 


(a)       hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of and any premium or interest on
Securities of that series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons
or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

of that series) in the making of any payment of principal and any premium or interest on the Securities of that series; and


 


(c)       at any time during the continuance of any such Default, upon the written request of the Trustee,
forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.


 


The Company may at
any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company
Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be
held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such 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 money.


 


Subject to any applicable
escheat or abandoned property laws, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust
for the payment of the principal of and any premium or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for one year
after such principal and any premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or
(if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured
general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect
to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however,
that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause
to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general
circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date
specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money
then remaining will be repaid to the Company.


 


10.4         
Existence. Subject to Article Eight, the Company will do or cause to be done all things
necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if the Company shall determine that the
preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company.


 


10.5         
Statement by Officers as to Default. Annually, within 150 days after the close of each
fiscal year beginning with the first fiscal year during which one or more series of Securities are Outstanding, the Company will
deliver to the Trustee a brief certificate (which need not include the statements set forth in Section 1.3) from the
principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company as to his or her knowledge
of the Company’s compliance (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided herein) with all conditions
and covenants under the Indenture and, if the Company shall be in Default, specifying all such Defaults and the nature and status
thereof of which such officer has knowledge.

10.6         
Additional Amounts. If the Securities of a series provide for the payment of additional
amounts (as provided in Section 3.1(o)), at least 10 days prior to the first Interest Payment Date with respect to
that series of Securities and at least 10 days prior to each date of payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the
Securities of that series if there has been a change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned Officer’s
Certificate, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee and the principal Paying Agent, if other than the Trustee, an Officer’s
Certificate instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent whether such payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on
the Securities of that series shall be made to holders of the Securities of that series without withholding or deduction for or
on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge described in the Securities of that series. If any such withholding
or deduction shall be required, then such Officer’s Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to
be withheld or deducted on such payments to such holders and shall certify the fact that additional amounts will be payable and
the amounts so payable to each holder, and the Company shall pay to the Trustee or such Paying Agent the additional amounts required
to be paid by this Section. 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 Officer’s Certificate furnished pursuant to this
Section 10.6.


 


Whenever in this Indenture
there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the principal of or any premium, interest or any other amounts on, or in respect
of, any Securities of any series, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of additional amounts provided
by the terms of such series established hereby or pursuant hereto to the extent that, in such context, additional amounts are,
were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to such terms, and express mention of the payment of additional amounts (if
applicable) in any provision hereof shall not be construed as excluding the payment of additional amounts in those provisions hereof
where such express mention is not made.

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 and, if applicable, of the tenor of the Securities to be redeemed. In the case of any
redemption of Securities (a) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities

11.3         
Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. If less than all the Securities
of any series are to be redeemed (unless all of the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed), the
particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from
the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by lot, pro rata or by another method as the Trustee
shall deem fair and appropriate, including any method required by the Depository with respect to any Global Securities (and in
such manner as is not prohibited by applicable legal requirements) and which 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.


 


The Trustee shall promptly
notify the Company 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. If the Securities of any series to be redeemed consist of Securities having
different dates on which the principal is payable or different rates of interest, or different methods by which interest may be
determined or have any other different tenor or terms, then the Company may, by written notice to the Trustee, direct that the
Securities of such series to be redeemed shall be selected from among the groups of such Securities having specified tenor or terms
and the Trustee shall thereafter select the particular Securities to be redeemed in the manner set forth in the preceding paragraph
from among the group of such Securities so specified.


 


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.


 


11.4         
Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage
prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed,
at his address appearing in the Security Register.


 


All notices of redemption
shall state:


 


(a)       the Redemption Date,


 


(b)       the Redemption Price, or if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof,


 


 


 






    	 	60	 



     


    

 


(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 will become due and payable upon each such
Security to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date,


 


(e)       the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption
Price, and


 


(f)       that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case.


 


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.


 


11.5         
Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 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 10.3) 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, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.


 


11.6         
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 to the Redemption Date; provided,
however, that unless otherwise specified with respect to Securities of any series as contemplated in Section 3.1,
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 3.7.


 


If any Security called
for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid,
bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security.


 


11.7         
Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security which 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 tenor, 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.

ARTICLE
Twelve

SINKING FUNDS


 


12.1         
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 3.1
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.” If provided for 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 12.2.
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.


 


12.2         
Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. The Company (a) may deliver
Outstanding Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) and (b) 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 fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.


 


12.3         
Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking
fund payment date for any series of Securities (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), the Company will
deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s 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 delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 12.2
and stating the basis for such credit and that such Securities have not been previously so credited, 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 11.3 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 11.4.
Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in
Section 11.6 and Section 11.7.

ARTICLE
Thirteen

DEFEASANCE


 


13.1         
Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Company may, at the option
of its Board of Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, and at any time, elect to have
either Section 13.2 or Section 13.3 hereof be applied to all outstanding Securities upon compliance with
the conditions set forth below in this Article Thirteen.


 


13.2         
Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 13.1
hereof of the option applicable to this Section 13.2, the Company will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions
set forth in Section 13.4 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding
Securities on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this
purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Debt represented by the
outstanding Securities, which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 13.5
hereof and the other sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all their other
obligations under such Securities and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute
proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or
discharged hereunder:


 


(a)       the rights of Holders of Outstanding Securities to receive payments in respect of the principal
of, or interest or premium, if any, on such Securities when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 13.4
hereof;


 


(b)       the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Section 3.4,
Section 3.5, Section 3.6, Section 10.2 and Section 10.3 hereof;


 


(c)       the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s
obligations in connection therewith; and


 


(d)       this Article Thirteen.


 


Subject to compliance
with this Article Thirteen, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 13.2 notwithstanding the prior exercise
of its option under Section 13.3 hereof.


 


13.3         
Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 13.1
hereof of the option applicable to this Section 13.3, the Company will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions
set forth in Section 13.4 hereof, be released from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in Section 7.4,
Section 8.1 and Section 10.4 hereof as well as any Additional Defeasible Provisions (such release and termination
hereinafter referred to as “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Securities will thereafter be deemed not “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 (it being understood
that such Securities will not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that,
with respect to the outstanding Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term,
condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein
to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document
and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 5.1 hereof, but, except
as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s
exercise under Section 13.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 13.3 hereof, subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 13.4 hereof, Section 5.1(c) and Section 5.1(e)
hereof and will not constitute Events of Default.

13.4         
Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance
or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 13.2 or Section 13.3 hereof:

of the Securities, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and
non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment
bank, appraisal firm, or firm of independent public accountants to pay the principal of, or interest and premium, if any, on the
Outstanding Securities on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the
Company must specify whether the Securities are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date;


 


(b)       in the case of an election under Section 13.2 hereof, the Company must deliver
to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that:


 


(i)       the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service
a ruling; or


 


(ii)      since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law,


 


in either case to the effect that, and
based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain
or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;


 


(c)       in the case of an election under Section 13.3 hereof, the Company must deliver
to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain
or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the

    	 	64	 



     


    

 


(d)       no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit
(other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit);


 


(e)       the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any
other instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound;


 


(f)       such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of,
or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound;


 


(g)       the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit
was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of Securities over the other creditors of the Company with
the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Company or others;


 


(h)       the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate, stating that all conditions
precedent set forth in clauses (a) through (g) of this Section 13.4 have been complied with; and


 


(i)       the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may
be subject to customary assumptions, qualifications and exclusions), stating that all conditions precedent set forth in clauses
(b), (c) and (e) of this Section 13.4 have been complied with; provided that the Opinion of Counsel with respect to
clause (e) of this Section 13.4 may be to the knowledge of such counsel.


 


13.5         
Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held in Trust, Other Miscellaneous
Provisions. Subject to Section 13.6 hereof, all money and non-callable U.S. Government Obligation (including the
proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 13.5,
the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 13.4 hereof in respect of the Outstanding Securities will 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 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, but
such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.


 


The Company will pay
and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable U.S. Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 13.4 hereof 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.


 


Notwithstanding anything
in this Article Thirteen to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of
the Company any money or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 13.4 hereof which,
in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered
to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 13.4(a) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof
that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.


 


 


 






    	 	65	 



     


    

 


13.6         
Repayment. Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by
the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security and remaining unclaimed
for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its
request or (if then held by the Company) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security will thereafter be
permitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to
such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee
or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published
once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed
and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication,
any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.


 


13.7         
Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States
dollars or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 13.2 or Section 13.3 hereof,
as the case may be, 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 will be revived and
reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 13.2 or Section 13.3 hereof until such
time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 13.2 or Section 13.3
hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest
on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such
Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.


 


This instrument may
be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts
shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.


 


IN WITNESS WHEREOF,
the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed, and their respective corporate seals to be hereunto affixed
and attested, all as of the day and year first above written.
