 Section 103. Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee. 
 In any case

or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed 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 and the Guarantor. 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 601) conclusive in favor of
the Trustee, the Company and the Guarantor, if made in the manner provided in this Section. 
 (b) The fact and date of the
execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the
individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him or her the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than such signer’s individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also
constitute sufficient proof of such signer’s 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 Company or the Guarantor may, in the circumstances permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, fix 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 action, or to vote on any action, authorized
or permitted to be given or taken by Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series. If not set by the Company or the Guarantor prior to the first solicitation of a Holder of Securities of such series made by any Person in respect of any such
action, or, in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote, the record date for any such action or vote shall be the 30th day (or, if later, the date of the most recent list of Holders required to be provided pursuant to Section 701) prior to
such first solicitation or vote, as the case may be. With regard to any record date for action to be taken by 

  
 -9-









 
the Holders of one or more series of Securities, only the Holders of Securities of such series on such date (or their duly designated proxies) shall be entitled to give or take, or vote on, the
relevant action. 
 (d) The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register or by a certificate of the Security
Registrar. 
 (e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any
Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by
the Trustee, the Company or the Guarantor in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. 
 (f) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder 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. 
 Section 105. Notices, Etc., to Trustee, Company and Guarantor. 
 Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, 

(1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company or by the Guarantor shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if
made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Department, or 
 (2) the Company or the Guarantor by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, in the case of the
Company, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument, Attention: Treasurer, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the
Trustee by the Company, with a copy to the Guarantor, and, in the case of the Guarantor, first-class postage prepaid and addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument, Attention:
Treasurer, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Guarantor, with a copy to the Company. 

Section 106. 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 its address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice; provided,
however, that the Company, the 

  
 -10-









 
Guarantor or the Trustee, upon a good faith determination that mailing is in the circumstances impractical, may give such notice by any other method which, in the reasonable belief of the Company
or the Guarantor or, in the case of the Trustee, of the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee, is likely to be received by the Holders. 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. 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. 

Section 107. 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 to be excluded, as the
case may be. 
 Section 108. 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.

 Section 109. Successors and Assigns. 
 All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company or the Guarantor shall bind their successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. 

Section 110. Separability Clause. 
 In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities or in the Guarantees shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall
not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 Section 111. Benefits of Indenture. 

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities or in the Guarantees, 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 or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

This Indenture and the Securities and the Guarantees shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New
York, but without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. 
 Section 113. 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 which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section)) payment of
interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date
or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity, provided that no interest shall accrue with respect to such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be, except that,
if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the
Stated Maturity, as the case may be. 
 Section 114. Personal Immunity from Liability for Incorporators, Stockholders, Etc.

 No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any Security, or for
any claim based thereon, or otherwise in respect of any Security or of the Guarantees, or based on or in respect of this Indenture or any indenture supplemental hereto, against any incorporator, or against any past, present or future stockholder,
director or officer, as such, of the Company or of any successor corporation, or of the Guarantor or of any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or
otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issue of the Securities and the Guarantees.

series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of [$]         and any integral multiple thereof. As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination,
as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose

obligations in respect of the Securities (except for certain obligations to register the transfer or exchange of Securities, replace stolen, lost or mutilated Securities, maintain paying agencies and hold moneys for payment in trust) or

sinking fund payments) of, and (premium, if any) and interest on, the Securities on the dates such payments are due in accordance with the terms of such Securities and Guarantees, and certain other conditions are satisfied. 

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on this Security, or for any claim based
hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof or of the Guarantee endorsed hereon, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or any indenture

hereof, expressly waived and released.

 GUARANTEE 

OF 
 AETNA INC.

 Aetna Inc., a Connecticut corporation (herein called the “Guarantor”, which term includes any successor corporation
under the Indenture referred to in the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed), for value received, hereby unconditionally guarantees to the Holder of the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed the due and punctual payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on said Security [and the due and punctual payment of the sinking fund payments provided for herein], when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or upon declaration
of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, according to the terms thereof and of the Indenture referred to therein. In case of the failure of [Aetna Life and Casualty Company] [Aetna Services, Inc.], a Connecticut corporation (herein called
the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under such Indenture) punctually to make any such payment of principal, premium or interest [or sinking fund payment], the Guarantor hereby agrees to pay or to cause any such
payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at Stated Maturity or upon declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Company. The Guarantor hereby
agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be as if it were principal debtor and not merely surety, and shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, the validity, legality or enforceability of said Security or
the Indenture, or the absence of any action to enforce the same, or any waiver, modification, indulgence or consent granted to the Company with respect thereto, by the Holder of said Security or by the Trustee, the recovery of any judgment against
the Company or any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no such
waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of the Guarantor, increase the principal amount of said Security or the interest rate thereon or increase any premium payable upon redemption thereof. The Guarantor hereby waives
diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of bankruptcy of the Company, any right of set-off or to counterclaim, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest or notice with respect
to said Security or the indebtedness evidenced thereby [or with respect to any sinking fund payment required under said Security] and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged except by payment in full of the
principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on said Security. 
 The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the
Holder against the Company in respect of any amounts paid to such Holder by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not, without the consent of all Holders of all
outstanding Securities of this series issued under the Indenture, be entitled to enforce, or to receive, any payments arising out of or based upon such right of subrogation until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest then due and payable
on all Securities of the same series issued under the Indenture shall have been irrevocably paid in full in accordance with the terms of such Securities. 
 This Guarantee is a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, in respect of said


  
 -20-









 
Security if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of said Security is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Holder of said Security or any trustee for said Holder upon
the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Company or any other entity, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Company or any
other entity or any substantial part of their respective property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made. 

No reference herein to such Indenture and no provision of this Guarantee or of such Indenture shall alter or impair the guarantee of the
Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, of the due and punctual payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed at the times, place and rate, and in the cash or currency
prescribed herein. 
 This Guarantee shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York,
but without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. 
 This Guarantee shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose
until the certificate of authentication on said Security shall have been manually signed by or on behalf of the Trustee under such Indenture. 
 All terms used in this Guarantee which are defined in such Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in such Indenture.

 -24-









 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 and having endorsed thereon Guarantees executed by the Guarantor to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order of the Company for the authentication and delivery

thereon have been established in or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by Sections 201 and 301, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities
and Guarantees endorsed thereon, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating, 

(a) if the form or forms of such Securities and the applicable Guarantees have been established by or pursuant to Board
Resolution as permitted by Section 201, that such form or forms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (b) if the terms of such Securities and the applicable Guarantees have been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 301, that such terms have been established in
conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (c) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered
by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to
bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally or the rights of creditors of insurance companies generally and to general
equity principles; and 
 (d) that such Guarantees, when the Securities on which such Guarantees are endorsed are
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Guarantor, enforceable in accordance
with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general equity principles. 

The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities under this Section if the Trustee, being advised
by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith by its board of directors, executive committee, or a trust committee of directors or responsible officers of the Trustee shall determine that such
action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to existing Holders of Securities. 

  
 -25-









 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 301 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 Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 301 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. 
 Each Security and the applicable Guarantee shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

No Security or Guarantee endorsed thereon shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose
unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that such Security or Guarantee 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 309, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security and the Guarantee endorsed
thereon shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 

Section 304. 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 substantially of the tenor
of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and having endorsed thereon Guarantees of the Guarantor substantially of the tenor of definitive Guarantees, which Securities and Guarantees may be printed, lithographed, typewritten,
mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities or such Guarantees may determine, as evidenced by their
execution of such Securities and such Guarantees. 
 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 one or more definitive Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor which have
endorsed thereon Guarantees duly executed by the Guarantor. 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 and tenor.

 Section 305. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. 

The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in
any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it or the Trustee may prescribe, the Company
shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. 

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency in a Place of Payment for that series,
the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal
amount and tenor which have endorsed thereon a Guarantee duly executed by the Guarantor. 
 At the option of the Holder,
Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, each such Security having endorsed thereon a Guarantee duly executed by the
Guarantor 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 and the Guarantor, 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, exchange, redemption or payment 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 or the Trustee
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 304, 906 or 1107 not
involving any transfer. 
 Unless otherwise required by the rules of any stock exchange on which the Securities are listed or of
any quotation system through which the Securities are traded, neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business
15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of that series selected for redemption 

  
 -27-









 
under Section 1103 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in
part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this
Indenture, no Global Security may be transferred to, or registered or exchanged for Securities registered in the name of, any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or any nominee thereof, and no such transfer may be registered,
unless (1) such Depositary (A) notifies the Company and the Trustee that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or (B) ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act,
(2) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order that such Global Security shall be so transferable, registrable and exchangeable, and such transfers shall be registrable, (3) there shall have occurred and be continuing
an Event of Default with respect to the Securities evidenced by such Global Security or (4) there shall exist such other circumstances, if any, as have been specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section 301. Notwithstanding any
other provision in this Indenture, a Global Security to which the restriction set forth in the preceding sentence shall have ceased to apply may be transferred only to, and may be registered and exchanged for Securities registered only in the name
or names of, such Person or Persons as the Depositary for such Global Security shall have directed and no transfer thereof other than such a transfer may be registered. 
 Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security to which the restriction set forth in the first sentence of the preceding
paragraph shall apply, whether pursuant to this Section, Section 304, 306, 906 or 1107 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security. 
 Section 306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 
 If
there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) a mutilated Security, or (ii) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and in either case such security or indemnity as may be required by
either of 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 the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount having endorsed thereon a Guarantee duly executed by the Guarantor, 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 or the Trustee 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. 

  
 -28-









 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 and the Guarantor, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all
the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Securities. 
 Section 307. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 

Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 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 (1) or (2) below: 
 (1) 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 15 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 its 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 (2). 

  
 -29-









 (2) 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. 
 Section 308. Persons Deemed Owners. 
 Prior to due presentment of a
Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of
receiving payment of principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 307) any interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee nor
any agent of the Company, the Guarantor or the Trustee 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 Guarantor, the Trustee, and any
agent of the Company, the Guarantor or the Trustee as the owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall impair, as between a Depositary and such holders of beneficial interests, the
operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Depositary as Holder of any Security. 
 Section 309.
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 cancelled by it. The Company or the Guarantor may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any
Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company or the Guarantor 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 cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities
cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of as directed by a Company Order. Acquisition by the Company or the Guarantor of any Security
shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Security unless and until the same is delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

  
 -30-









 Section 310. Computation of Interest. 

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series
shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and, for any period shorter than a full monthly period, shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in such period. 

ARTICLE FOUR 

Satisfaction and Discharge 
 Section 401. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 
 This Indenture
shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities of a series herein expressly provided for} with respect to Securities of any series and the Trustee, at
the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to a series, when 
 (1) either 
 (A) all Securities of such series theretofore
authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 and (ii) Securities of such series for whose payment money has
theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company or the Guarantor and thereafter repaid to the Company or the Guarantor or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation; or 
 (B) all such Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee
for cancellation 
 (i) have become due and payable, or 

(ii) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or 

(iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of
notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, 
 and the Company or the Guarantor, in the
case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee in trust for the purpose (A) money (either in United States dollars or such other currency or currency unit in which the Securities of any
series may be payable) in an amount, or (B) U.S. 

  
 -31-









 
Government Obligations (or Foreign Government Obligations if the Securities are denominated in a foreign currency or currencies) that through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in
respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities
of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of (and premium, if any) and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities of such series which have become due and payable) or to the Stated
Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be; 
 (2) the Company or the Guarantor has paid or caused to be
paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and 
 (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such series have been complied with. 

In the event there are Securities of two or more series outstanding hereunder, the Trustee shall be required to execute an instrument
acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture only if requested to do so with respect to Securities of a particular series as to which it is Trustee and if the other conditions thereto are met. In the event that there are two or more
Trustees hereunder, then the effectiveness of any such instrument shall be conditioned upon receipt of such instruments from all Trustees hereunder. 
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to a particular series, the obligations of the Company and the Guarantor to the Trustee under Section 607, the
obligations of the Trustee to any Authenticating Agent under Section 614 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of Clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under
Section 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003 shall survive until there are no Securities Outstanding with respect to a particular series and the obligations of the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee with respect to all other
series of Securities shall survive. 
 Section 402. Application of Trust Fund. 

Subject to provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all amounts deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401
shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company or the Guarantor acting as its own Paying Agent) as
the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and any premium and interest for whose payment such funds have been deposited with the Trustee.

 ARTICLE FIVE 
 Remedies 
 Section 501. Events of Default. 

“Event of Default” whenever used with respect to Securities of a series means any one of the following events and such other
events as may be established with respect to the Securities of such series as contemplated by Section 301 hereof: 
 (1) Default in the payment of any instalment of interest upon any of the Securities of such series as and when the same shall become due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30
days; or 
 (2) Default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on any of the Securities of such
series as and when the same shall become due and payable either at maturity, upon redemption, by declaration or otherwise; or 
 (3) Default in the making of any sinking fund payment, whether mandatory or optional, as and when the same shall become due and payable by the terms of the Securities of such series; or 

(4) Failure on the part of the Company or the Guarantor duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of
the covenants or agreements on the part of the Company or the Guarantor contained in this Indenture (other than those set forth exclusively in the terms of any other particular series of Securities established as contemplated by this Indenture for
the benefit of such other series) and written notice of such failure, stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder, and requiring the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, to remedy the same, shall have been given by
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the Company and the Guarantor by the Trustee, or to the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
that series, and such failure shall have continued unremedied for a period of 90 days after the date of the Company’s and the Guarantor’s receipt of such Notice of Default; or 

(5) An event of default, as defined in any indenture or instrument evidencing or under which the Company, the Guarantor or
any Principal Subsidiary shall have outstanding indebtedness for borrowed money in a principal amount in excess of $50,000,000, shall happen and be continuing and such indebtedness shall have been accelerated so that the same shall be or become due
and payable prior to the date on which the same would otherwise have become due and payable (other than acceleration of Non-Recourse Debt which does not exceed in the aggregate 4% of the Guarantor’s total shareholders’ equity, as set forth
in the most recently published audited consolidated balance sheet of the Guarantor) or the Company, the Guarantor or any Principal Subsidiary shall default in the payment at final maturity of outstanding indebtedness for borrowed money in a
principal amount in excess of $50,000,000 (other than default in payment at final maturity of Non-Recourse Debt which does not exceed in the aggregate 

  
 -33-









 
4% of the Guarantor’s total shareholders’ equity as set forth in the most recently published audited consolidated balance sheet of the Guarantor), and such acceleration or default at
maturity shall not be waived, rescinded or annulled within 30 days after written notice thereof, stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder, shall have been given to the Company and the Guarantor by the Trustee (if such
event be known to it), or to the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; provided, however, that if such acceleration under such
indenture or instrument or default at maturity shall be remedied or cured by the Company, the Guarantor or Principal Subsidiary, or waived, rescinded or annulled by the requisite holders of such indebtedness, then the Event of Default hereunder by
reason thereof shall be deemed likewise to have been thereupon remedied, cured or waived without further action upon the part of either the Trustee or any of the Holders; and provided further, that, subject to the provisions of
Sections 601 and 602, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any such default unless written notice thereof shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, by the holder of any such indebtedness
or an agent of the holder of any such indebtedness, by the trustee then acting under any such indenture or other instrument under which such default shall have occurred, or by the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series; or 
 (6) A decree or order by a court having jurisdiction in the premises
shall have been entered adjudging the Company or the Guarantor a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of the Company or the Guarantor under any applicable
Federal or State bankruptcy or similar law, and such decree or order shall have continued undischarged and unstayed for a period of 90 days; or a decree or order of a court having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a receiver,
liquidator, trustee, assignee, sequestrator or similar official in bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or the Guarantor or of all or substantially all of the Company’s or the Guarantor’s property, or for the winding up or liquidation
of the Company’s or the Guarantor’s affairs, shall have been entered, and such decree or order shall have continued undischarged and unstayed for a period of 90 days; or 

(7) The Company or the Guarantor shall institute proceedings to be adjudicated a voluntary bankrupt, or shall consent to
the filing of a bankruptcy proceeding against it, or shall file a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy or similar law, or shall consent to the
filing of any such petition, or shall consent to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, trustee, assignee, sequestrator or similar official in bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or the Guarantor or of all or substantially all of the
Company’s or the Guarantor’s property, or shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or either the Company or the Guarantor shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due and its willingness
to be adjudged a bankrupt, or corporate action shall be taken by the Company or the Guarantor in furtherance of any of the aforesaid purposes. 

  
 -34-









 Upon receipt by the Trustee of any Notice of Default pursuant to this Section 501 with
respect to Securities of any series, a record date shall automatically and without any other action by any Person be set for the purpose of determining the holders of Outstanding Securities of such series entitled to join in such Notice of Default,
which record date shall be the close of business on the day the Trustee receives such Notice of Default. The Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be
entitled to join in such Notice of Default, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such Notice of Default shall have become effective by virtue of Holders of at least 25% in principal amount
of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents) having joined therein on or prior to the 90th day after such record date, such Notice of Default shall automatically and without any action by any Person
be cancelled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder (or a duly appointed agent thereof) from giving, before or after the expiration of such 90-day period, a Notice of Default contrary to or different from, or,
after the expiration of such period, identical to, a Notice of Default that has been cancelled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record date in respect thereof shall be set pursuant to this paragraph.

 Section 502. 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 not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if any of the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of
the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified in the terms thereof) of all of the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company and the Guarantor (and to the Trustee if given by
Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) and all accrued interest thereon shall become immediately due and payable. 
 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 provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its
consequences if 
 (1) the Company or the Guarantor has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to
pay 
 (A) all overdue interest on all Securities of that series, 

(B) 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, 
 (C) 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-









 (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel except such costs and expenses as are a result of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee; 

and 
 (2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Securities of that series which have become due solely by
such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513. 
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Upon receipt by the Trustee of any declaration of acceleration, or any
rescission and annulment of any such declaration, pursuant to this Section 502 with respect to Securities of any series, a record date shall automatically and without any other action by any Person be set for the purpose of determining the
Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series entitled to join in such declaration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, which record date shall be the close of business on the day the Trustee receives such declaration, or rescission
and annulment, as the case may be. The Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such declaration, or rescission and annulment, as the
case may be, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such declaration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall have become effective by virtue of Holders of at least 25%, in the
case of any declaration of acceleration, or a majority, in the case of any rescission or annulment, in principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents) having joined therein on or prior
to the 90th day after such record date, such declaration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall automatically and without any action by any Person be cancelled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a
Holder (or a duly appointed agent thereof) from giving, before or after the expiration of such 90-day period, a declaration of acceleration, or a rescission and annulment of any such declaration, contrary to or different from, or, after the
expiration of such period, identical to, a declaration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, that has been cancelled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record date in respect thereof shall be set
pursuant to this paragraph. 
 Section 503. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 

The Company covenants that if 
 (1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or 

(2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof,


  
 -36-









 the Company will, upon written 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 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 except such costs and expenses, as are a result of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee. Until such demand is made by the Trustee, the Company may pay the principal of
and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Securities of any series to the Holders thereof, whether or not the Securities of such series are overdue. 
 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, the Guarantor 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, the Guarantor or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated. 

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to
protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement
of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 

Section 504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 In case of any judicial proceeding relative to the Company, the Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company, the Guarantor or such other obligor or their creditors,
the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding.
In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized 
 (i) 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 in accordance with the terms thereof 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 

(ii) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same; 

  
 -37-









 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any
such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607 except such costs and expenses, as are a result of negligence or bad faith on the
part of the Trustee. 
 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, 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

 Section 510. 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 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be
cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default
shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Subject to Section 507, every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be

 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall

 (1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and 

(2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

 Upon receipt by the Trustee of any such direction with respect to Securities of any series, a record date shall be set for
determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series entitled to join in such direction, which record date shall be the close of business on the day the Trustee receives such direction. The Holders of Outstanding Securities of such
series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such direction shall
have become effective by virtue of Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents) having joined therein on or prior to the 90th day after such record
date, such direction shall automatically and without any action by any Person be cancelled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder (or a duly appointed agent thereof) from giving, before or after the expiration of
such 90-day period, a direction contrary to or different from, or, after the expiration of such period, identical to, a direction that has been cancelled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record date in respect
thereof shall be set pursuant to this paragraph.

 Section 513. Waiver of Past Defaults. 

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 default 
 (1) in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Security of such series, or 
 (2) 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. 

With respect to any series of Securities, the Company or the Guarantor may, but shall not be obligated to, establish a record date for
the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to waive any past default hereunder. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to waive any default
hereunder, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, however, that unless such Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall have waived
such default prior to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any such waiver previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no effect. 

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. 

Section 514. Undertaking for Costs. 
 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, a court may require any party
litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that neither this Section nor the Trust
Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company or the Guarantor.

Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with

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.

authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by 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

accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 
 Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such
Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible
under this Section, 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 or the Company may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating
Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company or the Trustee, as the case may be. 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. 
 The Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation
for its services under this Section, and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 607.

 Covenants 
 Section 1001. 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 or cause
to be paid 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. 
 Section 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency by Company and Guarantor. 
 (a) So long as any Securities are Outstanding, the Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency 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 or shall fail to furnish the
Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands. 
 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 each Place of Payment for Securities of any series 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. 
 (b) So long as any Securities are Outstanding, the Guarantor

 -56-









 
purpose or where such notices or demands may be served and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any
manner relieve the Guarantor of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Guarantor 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.

of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of or 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

provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and (ii) during the continuance of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any payment in respect of the
Securities of that series, and upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent for payment in respect of the. Securities of that series. 

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. 
 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company or the Guarantor, in trust for the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Security of any
series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company or the
Guarantor) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company or the Guarantor for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent
with respect to such trust money, and all liability 

  
 -57-









 
of the Company or the Guarantor 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,

after the date hereof, a certificate signed by the Company’s or the Guarantor’s, as the case may be, principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer stating whether or not to the best knowledge of
the signer thereof the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, is in compliance with all terms, conditions and covenants of this Indenture (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and if the signer
has obtained knowledge of any continuing default by the Company or the Guarantor in the performance, observation or fulfillment of any such term, condition or covenant, specifying each such default and the nature thereof. 

Section 1005. Limitations on Liens on Common Stock of Principal Subsidiaries. 

As long as any of the Securities remains outstanding, the Guarantor will not, and will not permit any Principal Subsidiary to, issue,
assume, incur or guarantee any indebtedness for borrowed money secured by a mortgage, pledge, lien or other encumbrance, directly or indirectly, on any of the Common Stock of a Principal Subsidiary, which Common Stock is owned by the Guarantor, by
the Company or by any Principal Subsidiary, unless the obligations of the Company under the Securities and, if the Company or the Guarantor so elects, any other indebtedness of the Company or the Guarantor ranking on a parity with or prior to the
Securities or the Guarantor’s obligations under the Guarantees, as the case may be, shall be secured equally and ratably with, or prior to, such secured indebtedness for borrowed money so long as it is outstanding and is so secured.

 Section 1205. Deposited Money and U.S.
Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations to be Held In Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject to
the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other qualifying trustee (solely for purposes of
this Section and Section 1206, the Trustee and any such other trustee are referred to collectively as the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1204 in respect of the Securities of any series shall be held in trust and applied by the
Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities of such series and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any such Paying Agent (including the Company or the Guarantor acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee
may determine, to the Holders of the Securities of such series, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and any premium and interest, but money so held in trust need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent
required by law. 
 The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed

 Section 1206. Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with this Article Twelve with respect to the Securities of
any series by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s and the Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the
Securities of such series and the Guarantees endorsed thereon shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article Twelve with respect to Securities of such series until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent
is permitted to apply all money held in trust pursuant to Section 1205 with respect to Securities of such series in accordance with this Article Twelve; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of or
any premium or interest on any Security of such series following the reinstatement of its obligations or if the Guarantor makes any payment in respect thereof pursuant to its Guarantee of such Securities of such series, the Company or the Guarantor,
as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series to receive such payment from the money so held in trust. 
 ARTICLE THIRTEEN 
 Sinking Funds 

Section 1301. Applicability of Article. 
 The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 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 1302. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as
provided for by the terms of Securities of such series. 
 Section 1302. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

 The Company (1) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) and
(2) may apply as a credit Securities of a series which have been acquired or 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 or otherwise, 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 

  
 -65-









 
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. 
 Section 1303. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 

Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any,
which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 1302 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 15 nor more than 45 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 1103 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 1104. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1106 and 1107. 

ARTICLE FOURTEEN 

Guarantee of Securities 

Section 1401. Guarantee. 
 The Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Security of each series of the Company authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent the due and punctual
payment of the principal of (premium, if any) and interest on such Security and the due and punctual payment of any sinking fund payments provided for pursuant to the terms of such Security, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether
at Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise according to the terms of such Security and of this Indenture (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). In case of default by the Company in the payment of any such
principal, premium, interest or sinking fund payment, the Guarantor agrees duly and punctually to make any such payment when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, call for
redemption or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Company. The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be as if it were principal debtor and not merely surety, and shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective
of, and shall be unaffected by, the validity, legality or enforceability of any Security of any series or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same or any waiver, modification or indulgence or consent granted to the Company with
respect thereto by the Holder of any Security of any series or the Trustee, the recovery of any judgment against the Company or any action to enforce the same, or any other circumstances which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge
of a surety or guarantor; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of the Guarantor, increase the principal amount of a Security or the interest rate
thereon or increase any premium payable upon redemption thereof. The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a 

  
 -66-









 
court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of the Company, any right of set-off or counterclaim, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protect or notice with respect to any
Security or the indebtedness evidenced thereby or with respect to any sinking fund payment required pursuant to the terms of a Security issued under this Indenture and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged
as to any Security except by payment in full of the principal of {premium, if any) and interest on such Security. 
 Section 1402.
Subrogation. 
 The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holder of a Security against the Company in
respect of any amounts paid to such Holder by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not, without the consent of all Holders of Securities of such series, be entitled to
enforce, or to receive, any payments arising out of or based upon, such right of subrogation until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest then due and payable on all Securities of the relevant series shall have been irrevocably paid in
full in accordance with the terms of such Securities. 
 Section 1403. Reinstatement. 

The Guarantee of the Guarantor is a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection. The Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or
be reinstated, as the case may be, in respect of any Security if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of such Security is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Holder of such Security or any trustee for said Holder upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Company or any other entity, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Company or any other
entity or any substantial part of their respective property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made. 
 Section 1404.
Execution and Delivery of Guarantees. 
 To evidence its guarantee set forth in Section 1401, the Guarantor hereby
agrees to execute, subject to Section 201, the Guarantee in a form established pursuant to Section 206, to be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. Each such Guarantee shall be executed by the Guarantor as
provided in Section 303. 
 The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall
constitute due delivery of the Guarantee endorsed thereon on behalf of the Guarantor. 
 * * * * 

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.
