2.2.23
whether any of the Company’s direct or indirect Subsidiaries will guarantee the Securities of that Series, including the
terms of subordination, if any, of such guarantees.


 


All
Securities of any one Series need not be issued at the same time and may be issued from time to time, consistent with the terms
of this Indenture, if so provided by or pursuant to the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate
referred to above.


 


Section
2.3 Execution and Authentication.


 


An
Officer shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature.


 


If
an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Security is authenticated, the Security
shall nevertheless be valid.


 


A
Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. The signature
shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture.


 


The
Trustee shall at any time, and from time to time, authenticate Securities for original issue in the principal amount provided
in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate, upon receipt by the Trustee of a Company
Order. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.


 


The
aggregate principal amount of Securities of any Series outstanding at any time may not exceed any limit upon the maximum principal
amount for such Series set forth in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate delivered
pursuant to Section 2.2, except as provided in Section 2.8.


 


Prior
to the issuance of Securities of any Series, the Trustee shall have received and (subject to Section 7.2) shall be fully protected
in relying on: (a) the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate establishing the form of
the Securities of that Series or of Securities within that Series and the terms of the Securities of that Series or of Securities
within that Series, (b) an Officer’s Certificate complying with Section 10.4, and (c) an Opinion of Counsel complying with
Section 10.4.


 


The
Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities of such Series: (a) if the Trustee, being advised
by counsel, determines that such action may not be taken lawfully; or (b) if the Trustee in good faith by its board of directors
or trustees, executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or vice presidents or a committee of Responsible Officers
shall determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to Holders of any then outstanding Series of Securities.


 




    	6



     


    

 


The
Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. An authenticating agent may
authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes
authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Company or an Affiliate
of the Company.


 


Section
2.4 Registrar and Paying Agent.


 


The
Company shall maintain, with respect to each Series of Securities, at the place or places specified with respect to such Series
pursuant to Section 2.2, an office or agency where Securities of such Series may be presented or surrendered for payment (the
“Paying Agent”), where Securities of such Series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
(the “Registrar”) and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of such
Series and this Indenture may be delivered (the “Notice Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register with respect
to each Series of Securities and to their transfer and exchange. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of
the name and address, and any change in the name or address, of each Registrar, Paying Agent or Notice Agent. If at any time the
Company shall fail to maintain any such required Registrar, Paying Agent or Notice Agent or shall fail to furnish the Trustee
with the name and 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; provided, however, that any appointment of the Trustee as the Notice Agent shall exclude the
appointment of the Trustee or any office of the Trustee as an agent to receive the service of legal process on the Company.


 


The
Company may also from time to time designate one or more co-registrars, additional paying agents or additional notice agents 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 obligations to maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent and Notice Agent in each place so specified
pursuant to Section 2.2 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 name or address of any such co-registrar, additional paying agent
or additional notice agent. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar; the term “Paying Agent”
includes any additional paying agent; and the term “Notice Agent” includes any additional notice agent. The
Company or any of its Affiliates may serve as Registrar or Paying Agent.


 


The
Company hereby appoints the Trustee the initial Registrar, Paying Agent and Notice Agent for each Series unless another Registrar,
Paying Agent or Notice Agent, as the case may be, is appointed prior to the time Securities of that Series are first issued.


 


Section
2.5 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.


 


The
Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust, for
the benefit of Securityholders of any Series of Securities, or the Trustee, all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment
of principal of or interest on the Series of Securities, and will notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company
in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by
it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment
over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company) shall have no further liability
for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust
fund for the benefit of Securityholders of any Series of Securities all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy,
reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Securities.


 


Section
2.6 Securityholder Lists.


 


The
Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and
addresses of Securityholders of each Series of Securities and shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is
not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least ten days before each interest payment date and at such other
times as the Trustee may request in writing a list, in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require, of
the names and addresses of Securityholders of each Series of Securities.

Section
2.7 Transfer and Exchange.


 


Where
Securities of a Series are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them
for an equal principal amount of Securities of the same Series, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange
if its requirements for such transactions are met. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Trustee shall authenticate
Securities at the Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except
as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or
similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable
upon exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.11, 3.6 or 9.6).


 


Neither
the Company nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange Securities of any Series for
the period beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the sending of a notice of redemption of Securities
of that Series selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day such notice is sent, or (b) to register
the transfer of or exchange Securities of any Series selected, called or being called for redemption as a whole or the portion
being redeemed of any such Securities selected, called or being called for redemption in part.


 


Section
2.8 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.


 


If
any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, 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 (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of
any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity bond as may be required by each of them to hold itself and any of its agents
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 receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery,
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, 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
2.9 Outstanding Securities.


 


The
Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those
delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest on a Global Security effected by the Trustee in accordance
with the provisions hereof and those described in this Section as not outstanding.


 


If
a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.8, it ceases to be outstanding until the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it
that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser.


 




    	8



     


    

 


If
the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds on the Maturity of
Securities of a Series money sufficient to pay such Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities
of the Series cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.


 


The
Company may purchase or otherwise acquire the Securities, whether by open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise.
A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security (but see Section
2.10 below).


 


In
determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Securities have given any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, the principal amount of a Discount Security that shall be deemed to be outstanding
for such purposes shall be the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of such determination
upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.2.


 


Section
2.10 Treasury Securities.


 


In
determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities of a Series have concurred in any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, Securities of a Series owned by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company
shall be disregarded, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver only Securities of a Series that a Responsible Officer of
the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.


 


Section
2.11 Temporary Securities.


 


Until
definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities
upon a Company Order. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations
that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the
Trustee upon receipt of a Company Order shall authenticate definitive Securities of the same Series and date of maturity in exchange
for temporary Securities. Until so exchanged, temporary securities shall have the same rights under this Indenture as the definitive
Securities.


 


Section
2.12 Cancellation.


 


The
Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to
the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all
Securities surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy such canceled Securities
(subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act and the Trustee) and deliver a certificate of such cancellation
to the Company upon written request of the Company. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that it has
paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.


 


Section
2.13 Defaulted Interest.


 


If
the Company defaults in a payment of interest on a Series of Securities, it shall pay the defaulted interest, plus, to the extent
permitted by law, any interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the persons who are Securityholders of the Series on a subsequent
special record date. The Company shall fix the record date and payment date. At least 10 days before the special record date,
the Company shall send to the Trustee and to each Securityholder of the Series a notice that states the special record date, the
payment date and the amount of interest to be paid. The Company may pay defaulted interest in any other lawful manner.


 


Section
2.14 Global Securities.


 


2.14.1
Terms of Securities. A Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officer’s Certificate shall establish
whether the Securities of a Series shall be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities and the Depositary

2.14.2

addition thereto, any Global Security shall be exchangeable pursuant to Section 2.7 of this Indenture for Securities registered
in the names of Holders other than the Depositary for such Security or its nominee only if (i) such Depositary notifies the Company
that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or if at any time such Depositary ceases to
be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, the Company fails to appoint a successor Depositary
registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act within 90 days of such event or (ii) the Company executes and delivers
to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable. Any Global Security
that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Securities registered in such names as the Depositary
shall direct in writing in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security with like tenor
and terms.


 


Except
as provided in this Section 2.14.2, a Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary with respect
to such Global Security to a nominee of such Depositary, by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee
of such Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such a successor Depositary.


 


2.14.3
Legends. Any Global Security issued hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:


 


“THIS
SECURITY IS A GLOBAL SECURITY WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF THE
DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY. THIS SECURITY IS EXCHANGEABLE FOR SECURITIES REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A PERSON OTHER
THAN THE DEPOSITARY OR ITS NOMINEE ONLY IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT
AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY, BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE
OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY.”


 


In
addition, so long as the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) is the Depositary, each Global Security registered in the
name of DTC or its nominee shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:


 


“UNLESS
THIS GLOBAL SECURITY IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (“DTC”),
TO THE COMPANY OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY GLOBAL SECURITY ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN
THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE
TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER
USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS
AN INTEREST HEREIN.”


 


2.14.4
Acts of Holders. The Depositary, as a Holder, may appoint agents and otherwise authorize participants to give or take any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action which a Holder is entitled to give or take
under this Indenture.


 


2.14.5
Payments. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section

statement of the Depositary or by the applicable procedures of such Depositary with respect to such Global Security, for purposes
of obtaining any consents, declarations, waivers or directions required to be given by the Holders pursuant to this Indenture.

Section
2.15 CUSIP Numbers.


 


The
Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall
use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may
state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained
in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other elements of identification printed on the Securities,
and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.


 


ARTICLE

REDEMPTION


 


Section
3.1 Notice to Trustee.


 


The
Company may, with respect to any Series of Securities, reserve the right to redeem and pay the Series of Securities or may covenant
to redeem and pay the Series of Securities or any part thereof prior to the Stated Maturity thereof at such time and on such terms
as provided for in such Securities. If a Series of Securities is redeemable and the Company wants or is obligated to redeem prior
to the Stated Maturity thereof all or part of the Series of Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, it shall notify
the Trustee in writing of the redemption date and the principal amount of Series of Securities to be redeemed. The Company shall
give the notice at least 15 days before the redemption date, unless a shorter period is satisfactory to the Trustee.


 


Section
3.2 Selection of Securities to be Redeemed.


 


Unless
otherwise indicated for a particular Series by a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officer’s Certificate,
if less than all the Securities of a Series are to be redeemed, the Securities of the Series to be redeemed will be selected as
follows: (a) if the Securities are in the form of Global Securities, in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary, (b)
if the Securities are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national
securities exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed, or (c) if not otherwise provided for under clause (a) or (b)
in the manner that the Trustee deems fair and appropriate, including by lot or other method, unless otherwise required by law
or applicable stock exchange requirements, subject, in the case of Global Securities, to the applicable rules and procedures of
the Depositary. The Securities to be redeemed shall be selected from Securities of the Series outstanding not previously called
for redemption. Portions of the principal of Securities of the Series that have denominations larger than $1,000 may be selected
for redemption. Securities of the Series and portions of them it selected for redemption shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole
multiples of $1,000 or, with respect to Securities of any Series issuable in other denominations pursuant to Section 2.2.10, the

at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company shall send or cause to be sent by first-class

portion of the original Security shall be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Security;


 




    	11



     


    

 


(e)
that Securities of the Series called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;


 


(f)
that interest on Securities of the Series called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date unless the Company
defaults in the deposit of the redemption price;


 


(g)
the CUSIP number, if any; and


 


(h)
any other information as may be required by the terms of the particular Series or the Securities of a Series being redeemed.


 


At
the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense, provided,
however, that the Company has delivered to the Trustee, at least 10 days (unless a shorter time shall be acceptable to the Trustee)
prior to the notice date, an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information
to be stated in such notice.


 


Section
3.4 Effect of Notice of Redemption.


 


Once
notice of redemption is sent as provided in Section 3.3, Securities of a Series called for redemption become due and payable on
the redemption date and at the redemption price. Except as otherwise provided in the supplemental indenture hereto, Board Resolution
or Officer’s Certificate for a Series of Securities, a notice of redemption pertaining to such Series may not be conditional.
Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price plus accrued interest to the redemption
date.

it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not, by resort
to any such law, 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 has been enacted.

The
term “Bankruptcy Law” means title 11, U.S. Code or any similar Federal or State law for the relief of debtors.
The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official under any Bankruptcy

the occurrence of such Default or Event of Default, which notice will describe in reasonable detail the status of such Default
or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take in respect thereof.


 


Section
6.2 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 (other than an Event
of Default referred to in Section 6.1(d) or (e)) 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 Securities of that Series are
Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such Securities) of and accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, on 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)
and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section
6.1(d) or (e) shall occur, the principal amount (or specified amount) of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding
Securities shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part
of the Trustee or any Holder.


 


At
any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to 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 and the Trustee, may rescind and
annul such declaration and its consequences if all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that Series, other than the
non-payment of the principal and interest, if any, of Securities of that Series which have become due solely by such declaration
of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.13.


 


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


 


Section
6.3 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.


 


The
Company covenants that if


 


(a)
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


 


(b)
default is made in the payment of principal of any Security at the Maturity thereof, or


 


(c)
default is made in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, if any, when and as due by the terms of a Security,


 


then,
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 interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally
enforceable, interest on any overdue principal and 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 compensation, reasonable 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 deemed 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.


 




    	15



     


    

 


If
an Event of Default with respect to any 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
6.4 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 or the property of the Company or
of such other obligor 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,


 


(a)
to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal 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 compensation, reasonable 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, 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 compensation, reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7.


 


Nothing
herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder
any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof
or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.


 


Section
6.5 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 compensation, reasonable 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.


 


Section
6.6 Application of Money Collected.


 


Any
money or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 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 or property on account of principal 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 7.7; and


 


Second:
To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of 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 interest, respectively; and


 


Third:
To the Company.

(a)
such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities

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, intended and expressly covenanted by the Holder of every Security with every other Holder and the Trustee 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 of the applicable Series.


 


Section
6.8 Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal 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 interest, if any, on such Security on the Maturity of such Security, including the Stated
Maturity 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.


 


Section
6.9 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.


 


Section

Except
as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in Section
2.8, 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, to the extent permitted by law, prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.


 




    	17



     


    

 


Section
6.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver.


 


No
delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of
Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.
Every right and remedy given by this Article 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.


 


Section
6.12 Control by Holders.


 


The
Holders of 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 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,


 


(c)
subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee
in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee
in personal liability, and


 


(d)
prior to taking any action as directed under this Section 6.12, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnity satisfactory to it
against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.


 


Section
6.13 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, by written notice to the Trustee and the Company, waive any past Default hereunder with
respect to such Series and its consequences, except a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security of
such Series (provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series
may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration).
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
6.14 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 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 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 interest on any Security on or after the Maturity of such Security, including
the Stated Maturity expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the redemption date).

at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities generally or the Securities of a particular
Series and this Indenture.

If
a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Securities of any Series and if it is known to a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall send to each Securityholder of the Securities of that Series notice of a Default or
Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs or, if later, after a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has knowledge of such
Default or Event of Default. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest on any
Security of any Series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as its corporate trust committee or a committee of
its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Securityholders of that Series.


 


Section
7.6 Reports by Trustee to Holders.


 


Within
60 days after each ____________ commencing ____________, _______, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Securityholders, as
their names and addresses appear on the register kept by the Registrar, a brief report dated as of such anniversary date, in
accordance with, and to the extent required under, TIA § 313.


 


A

an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by it.
Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.


 


The
Company shall indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee (including for the cost of defending itself) against any
cost, expense or liability, including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee)
incurred by it except as set forth in the next paragraph in the performance of its duties under this Indenture as Trustee or Agent.

separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any
settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. This indemnification shall apply to officers,
directors, employees, shareholders and agents of the Trustee.

When
the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(d) or (e) occurs, the expenses

the Trustee, are then in excess of the amount thereof which then would have been required to be deposited for the purpose for
which such U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations or money were deposited or received. This provision shall
not authorize the sale by the Trustee of any U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations held under this Indenture.

Securities of such Series on the dates such installments of principal or interest and such sinking fund payments are due;

Series of Securities or a Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.2 (and the failure
to comply with any such covenants shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to such Series under Section
6.1) and the occurrence of any event specified in a supplemental indenture for such Series of Securities or a Board Resolution
or an Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.2 and designated as an Event of Default shall not constitute

an amount in cash, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants or investment
bank expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge each installment of principal
(including mandatory sinking fund or analogous payments) of and interest on all the Securities of such Series on the dates such

money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another
person.


 


Section
8.6 Reinstatement.


 


If
the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money deposited with respect to Securities of any Series in accordance
with Section 8.1 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority
enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the obligations of the Company under this Indenture with respect
to the Securities of such Series and under the Securities of such Series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit
had occurred pursuant to Section 8.1 until such time as the Trustee or the Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in
accordance with Section 8.1; provided, however, that if the Company has made any payment of principal of or interest
on or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall
be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations
held by the Trustee or Paying Agent after payment in full to the Holders.

    	26



     


    

 


(k)
to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA.


 


Section
9.2 With Consent of Holders.


 


The
Company and the Trustee may enter into a supplemental indenture hereto with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority
in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of each Series affected by such supplemental indenture (including consents obtained
in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Securities of such Series), for the purpose of adding any provisions
to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture hereto or
of modifying in any manner the rights of the Securityholders of each such Series. Except as provided in Section 6.13, the Holders
of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series by notice to the Trustee (including consents
obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Securities of such Series) may waive compliance by the Company
with any provision of this Indenture or the Securities with respect to such Series.


 


It
shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Securities under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any
proposed supplemental indenture hereto or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. After
a supplemental indenture hereto or waiver under this section becomes effective, the Company shall send to the Holders of Securities
affected thereby, a notice briefly describing the supplemental indenture or waiver. Any failure by the Company to send such notice,
or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver.


 


Section
9.3 Limitations.


 


Without
the consent of each Securityholder affected, an amendment or waiver may not:


 


(a)
reduce the principal amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;


 


(b)
reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest (including default interest) on any Security;


 


(c)

(d)
reduce the principal amount of Discount Securities payable upon acceleration of the maturity thereof;


 


(e)
waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or interest, if any, on any Security (except a rescission

of such Series and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);


 


(f)
make the principal of or interest, if any, on any Security payable in any currency other than that stated in the Security;


 


(g)
make any change in Sections 6.8, 6.13 or 9.3 (this sentence); or


 


(h)
waive a redemption payment with respect to any Security, provided that such redemption is made at the Company’s option.


 


Section
9.4 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.


 


Every
amendment to this Indenture or the Securities of one or more Series shall be set forth in a supplemental indenture hereto that
complies with the TIA as then in effect.


 




    	27



     


    

 


Section
9.5 Revocation and Effect of Consents.


 


Until
an amendment is set forth in a supplemental indenture hereto or a waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Security
is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same
debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such
Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to his Security or portion of a Security if the Trustee receives the notice
of revocation before the date of the supplemental indenture or the date the waiver becomes effective.


 


Any
amendment or waiver once effective shall bind every Securityholder of each Series affected by such amendment or waiver unless
it is of the type described in any of clauses (a) through (h) of Section 9.3. In that case, the amendment or waiver shall bind
each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences
the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security.


 


The
Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their
consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record
date is fixed, then notwithstanding the second immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record
date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent
previously given or take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent
shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date.


 


Section
9.6 Notation on or Exchange of Securities.


 


The
Company or the Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver on any Security of any Series thereafter
authenticated. The Company in exchange for Securities of that Series may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate upon receipt
of a Company Order in accordance with Section 2.3 new Securities of that Series that reflect the amendment or waiver.


 


Section
9.7 Trustee Protected.


 


In
executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture hereto permitted by this Article or the modifications
thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 7.1) shall
be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both complying with Section 10.4.
The Trustee shall sign all supplemental indentures hereto upon delivery of such an Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel
or both, except that the Trustee need not sign any supplemental indenture that adversely affects its rights, duties, liabilities
or immunities under this Indenture.

action may be taken by the Holders of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of Securities of all Series or all

Section
10.16 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 or other amount 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 New York Banking Day, then 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 New York Banking Day 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, any recovery pursuant to any judgment (whether or not entered in accordance with subsection (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. For purposes of the foregoing, “New
York Banking Day” means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday in The City of New York on which banking
institutions are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close.


 


Section
10.17 Force Majeure.


 


In
no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising
out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages,
accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions,
loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services, it being understood that the Trustee
shall use reasonable best efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as
soon as practicable under the circumstances.


 


Section
10.18 U.S.A. Patriot Act.


 


The
parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the Trustee is required to obtain, verify,
and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the
Trustee. The parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee with such information as it may request in order
for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the U.S.A. Patriot Act.


 


ARTICLE
XI

SINKING FUNDS


 


Section
11.1 Applicability of Article.


 


The
provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of the Securities of a Series if so provided
by the terms of such Securities pursuant to Section 2.2 and except as otherwise permitted or required by any form of Security
of such Series issued pursuant to this Indenture.


 


The
minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of the Securities of any Series is herein referred to as
a “mandatory sinking fund payment” and any other amount provided for by the terms of Securities of such 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 11.2. Each sinking
fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any Series as provided for by the terms of the Securities of
such Series.

Section
11.2 Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.


 


The
Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of any Series to be
made pursuant to the terms of such Securities (1) deliver outstanding Securities of such Series to which such sinking fund payment
is applicable (other than any of such Securities previously called for mandatory sinking fund redemption) and (2) apply as credit
Securities of such Series to which such sinking fund payment is applicable and which have been repurchased by the Company or redeemed
either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Series of Securities (except pursuant to any mandatory sinking
fund) or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments or other optional redemptions pursuant to the terms
of such Securities, provided that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received by the
Trustee, together with an Officer’s Certificate with respect thereto, not later than 15 days prior to the date on which
the Trustee begins the process of selecting Securities for redemption, and shall be credited for such purpose by the Trustee at
the 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. If as a result of the delivery or credit of Securities in lieu of cash payments pursuant
to this Section 11.2, the principal amount of Securities of such Series to be redeemed in order to exhaust the aforesaid cash
payment shall be less than $100,000, the Trustee need not call Securities of such Series for redemption, except upon receipt of
a Company Order that such action be taken, and such cash payment shall be held by the Trustee or a Paying Agent and applied to
the next succeeding sinking fund payment, provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall from time
to time upon receipt of a Company Order pay over and deliver to the Company any cash payment so being held by the Trustee or such
Paying Agent upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of Securities of that Series purchased by the Company having an unpaid
principal amount equal to the cash payment required to be released to the Company.


 


Section
11.3 Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.


 


Not
less than 45 days (unless otherwise indicated in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate
in respect of a particular Series of Securities) prior to each sinking fund payment date for any Series of Securities, the Company
will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing mandatory 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 of Securities of that Series pursuant to
Section 11.2, and the optional amount, if any, to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and the
Company shall thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein specified. Not less than 30 days (unless otherwise indicated in
the Board Resolution, Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture hereto in respect of a particular Series of Securities)
before each such sinking fund payment date the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date will be selected
in the manner specified in Section 3.2 and the Company shall send or cause to be sent a notice of the redemption thereof to be
given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in and in accordance with Section 3.3. Such notice
having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 3.4,
3.5 and 3.6.
