and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a written order of the Company for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, signed
by an Officer (an “Authentication Order”), and the Trustee in accordance with such written order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities, without any further action by the Company hereunder. In authenticating such Securities,
and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall receive, and shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon:

Certificate or other documents have been superseded or revoked or expire by their terms. 
 Section 2.05. Transfer and Exchange.

 (a) Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall keep, or cause to be kept, at its office or agency designated for such
purpose as provided in Section 4.02, a register or registers (the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall register the Securities and the transfers of
Securities as provided in this Article II and which at all reasonable times shall be open for inspection by the Trustee. The registrar for the purpose of registering Securities and the transfer of Securities as herein provided shall be appointed as
authorized by Board Resolution (the “Security Registrar”). If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Security Registrar, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Security
Registrar. 
 To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute a new Security or Securities of the same series
as the Security presented for a like aggregate principal amount and in authorized denominations and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Security or Securities upon receipt of an Authentication Order. The Trustee shall not be required to
register the transfer of or exchange any Security selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid Obligations of the Company evidencing the
same indebtedness, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Prior to such due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Security, the Trustee,
the Company, any paying agent and the Security Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such
Securities and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, the Company, the paying agent or the Security Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary. The Company is not required to transfer or exchange any Security of any series
selected for redemption during a period of 15 days before mailing or otherwise delivering a notice of redemption of Securities of such series to be redeemed. 

All certifications, certificates and opinions of counsel required to be submitted to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 2.05 to effect
a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile or electronic transfer. 
 The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty
to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security or Securities other than to require delivery of
such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express
requirements hereof. 

  
 14 








 (b) Service Charge. No service charge shall be payable by a holder of a beneficial
interest in a Global Security or by a Holder of a Definitive Security for any exchange or registration of transfer of Securities, or for any issue of new Securities in case of partial redemption of any series, but the Company may require payment of
a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such taxes or other governmental charge payable upon exchange or registration of transfer pursuant to Sections 2.06,
3.03(b) and 9.04). 
 (c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities. A Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by
the Depositary for a series of the Securities to a nominee of such Depositary, by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or to another nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for a
series of the Securities or a nominee of such successor Depositary. If at any time the Depositary for a series of the Securities notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such series or if at any time the
Depositary for such series shall no longer be registered or in good standing under the Exchange Act or other applicable statute or regulation, and a successor Depositary for such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the
Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, the provisions of Section 2.11 shall no longer be applicable to the Securities of such series. In addition, the Company may at any time determine that the Securities of any series
shall no longer be represented by a Global Security and that the provisions of Section 2.11 shall no longer apply to the Securities of such series. In either such event the Company will execute the Definitive Securities of such series, in
authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security of such series and subject to this Section 2.05 the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate evidencing such
determination by the Company, if applicable, will authenticate and deliver such Definitive Securities in exchange for such Global Security. Upon the exchange of the Global Security of such series for such Definitive Securities of such series, the
Global Security shall be canceled by the Trustee. Such Definitive Securities shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its Participants or Indirect Participants or
otherwise, shall in writing instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Depositary for delivery to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered. 

Except as provided in Sections 2.06 and 2.07, a Global Security may not be exchanged for another Security other than as provided in this
Section 2.05(c); however, beneficial interests in a Global Security may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.05(d) or (e). The provisions of this Section 2.05(c) are subject to Section 2.11. 

(d) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Securities. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the
Global Securities of a series shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, any Board Resolution and any one or more indentures supplemental hereto, and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests
in the Restricted Global Securities of a series shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Securities also shall
require compliance with either subparagraph (1) or (2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable: 

(1) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Security. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Security
of a series may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Security in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend. Beneficial
interests in any Unrestricted Global Security of a series may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security of such series. Subject to Section 2.05(e)(4), no written
orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Security Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.05(d)(1). 

(2) All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Securities. In connection with all transfers and
exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 2.05(d)(1) above, the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Security Registrar, as applicable, either: 

  
 15 








 (A) (1) an order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the
Depositary in accordance with the relevant Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Security of such series in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be
transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given in accordance with the relevant Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase; or 

(B) (1) an order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the relevant
Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Security of such series in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given by the Depositary to the Security
Registrar containing information regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Security shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (B)(1) above; 

provided that in no event shall Definitive Securities of a series be issued upon the transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in the Regulation S
Temporary Global Security of such series prior to (y) the expiration of the relevant Distribution Compliance Period and (z) the receipt by the Security Registrar of any certificates identified by the Company or its counsel to be required
pursuant to Rule 903 and Rule 904 under the Securities Act. Upon satisfaction of all the requirements for transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in Global Securities of a series contained in this Indenture, any Board Resolution, or one or
more indentures supplemental hereto and the Securities of such series or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Security or Securities of such series pursuant to
Section 2.05(h). 
 (3) Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global Security. A beneficial
interest in any Restricted Global Security of a series may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Restricted Global Security of the same series if the transfer complies with the
requirements of Section 2.05(d)(2) and the Security Registrar receives a completed certificate in the form of Exhibit A. 

(4) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Security for Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted
Global Security. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Security of any series may be exchanged by any Holder thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security of such series or transferred to a Person who takes delivery
thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security of such series if the exchange or transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.05(d)(2) above and the Security Registrar receives a completed certificate
from such Holder in the form of Exhibit A or Exhibit B, as applicable, and an opinion of counsel in form, and from legal counsel, reasonably acceptable to the Security Registrar and the Company to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in
compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Private Placement Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act. 

If any such transfer is effected at a time when an Unrestricted Global Security of such series has not yet been issued, the Company shall
issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.04, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Securities of such series in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal
amount of beneficial interests so transferred. Beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Security of a series cannot be exchanged for, or transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of, a beneficial interest in a Restricted
Global Security of such series. 
 (e) Transfer or Exchange of Beneficial Interests for Definitive Securities. 

(1) Beneficial Interests in Restricted Global Securities to Restricted Definitive Securities. If any holder of a
beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security of a series proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for a Restricted Definitive Security of such series or to transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the
form of a Restricted Definitive Security of such series, then, upon receipt by the Security Registrar of a completed certificate from such Holder in the form of Exhibit A or Exhibit B, as applicable, and certificates and opinions of counsel, if
applicable, the 

  
 16 








 
Trustee shall cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Restricted Global Security of such series to be reduced accordingly pursuant to Section 2.05(h), and the Company shall
execute a Restricted Definitive Security of such series in the appropriate principal amount and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order pursuant to Section 2.04, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Person designated in the
instructions such Restricted Definitive Security. Any Restricted Definitive Security of such series issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security of such series pursuant to this Section 2.05(e) shall be registered
in such name or names and in such authorized denomination or denominations as the Holder of such beneficial interest shall instruct the Security Registrar through instructions from the Depositary for such series and the Participant or Indirect
Participant. The Trustee shall deliver such Restricted Definitive Securities of such series to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered. Any Restricted Definitive Security of such series issued in exchange for a beneficial
interest in a Restricted Global Security of such series pursuant to this Section 2.05(e)(1) shall bear the Private Placement Legend and shall be subject to all restrictions on transfer contained therein. 

(2) Beneficial Interests in Restricted Global Securities to Unrestricted Definitive Securities. A holder of a beneficial
interest in a Restricted Global Security of a series may exchange such beneficial interest for an Unrestricted Definitive Security of such series or may transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of an
Unrestricted Definitive Security of such series only if the Security Registrar receives a completed certificate from such Holder in the form of Exhibit A or Exhibit B, as applicable, and an opinion of counsel in form, and from legal counsel,
reasonably acceptable to the Security Registrar and the Company to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Private Placement Legend are no
longer required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act. 
 (3) Beneficial Interests in Unrestricted
Global Securities to Unrestricted Definitive Securities. If any holder of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security of a series proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for an Unrestricted Definitive Security of such series
or to transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Definitive Security of such series, then, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.05(d)(2), the Trustee shall cause
the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Unrestricted Global Security of such series to be reduced accordingly pursuant to Section 2.05(h), and the Company shall execute an Unrestricted Definitive Security of such series in the
appropriate principal amount and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.04, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Person designated in the instructions such Unrestricted Definitive Security. Any
Unrestricted Definitive Security issued in exchange for a beneficial interest pursuant to this Section 2.05(e)(3) shall be registered in such name or names and in such authorized denomination or denominations as the Holder of such beneficial
interest shall instruct the Security Registrar through instructions from the Depositary for such series and the Participant or Indirect Participant. The Trustee shall deliver such Unrestricted Definitive Securities to the Persons in whose names such
Securities are so registered. Any Unrestricted Definitive Security issued in exchange for a beneficial interest pursuant to this Section 2.05(e)(3) shall not bear the Private Placement Legend. 

(4) Transfer or Exchange of Regulation S Temporary Global Securities. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this
Section 2.05, a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Temporary Global Security of a series may not be (A) exchanged for a Definitive Security of such series prior to (y) the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period with
respect to such series (unless such exchange is effected by the Company, does not require an investment decision on the part of the Holder thereof and does not violate the provisions of Regulation S) and (z) the receipt by the Security
Registrar of any certificates identified by the Company or its counsel to be required pursuant to Rule 903(b)(3)(ii)(B) under the Securities Act or (B) transferred to a U.S. person (as such term is defined in Regulation S) or for the account or
benefit of a U.S. person (other than an initial purchaser of such Regulation S Temporary Global Security) or a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a Definitive Security of such series prior to the events set forth in clause
(A) above or unless the transfer is pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act other than Rule 903 or 904. 

  
 17 








 (f) Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Securities for Beneficial Interests. 

(1) Restricted Definitive Securities to Beneficial Interests in Restricted Global Securities. If any Holder of a
Restricted Definitive Security of a series proposes to exchange such Security for a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security of such series or to transfer such Restricted Definitive Securities of such series to a Person who takes delivery
thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security of such series, then, upon receipt by the Trustee of the following documentation: 

(A) if the Holder of such Restricted Definitive Security of such series proposes to exchange such Security for a beneficial
interest in a Restricted Global Security of such series, a completed certificate from such Holder in the form of Exhibit B; or 

(B) if such Restricted Definitive Security is being transferred to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act
or to a non-U.S. person in an offshore transaction in accordance with Rule 903 or 904 under the Securities Act, a completed certificate to that effect set forth in Exhibit A, the Trustee shall cancel the
Restricted Definitive Security of such series, increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of, in the case of clause (A) above, the appropriate Restricted Global Security of such series and, in the case of clause
(B) above, the 144A Global Security of such series or the Regulation S Global Security of such series as applicable. 

(2) Restricted Definitive Securities to Beneficial Interests in Unrestricted Global Securities. A Holder of a Restricted
Definitive Security of a series may exchange such Security for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security of such series or transfer such Restricted Definitive Security of such series to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form
of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security of such series only if the Security Registrar receives a completed certificate from such Holder in the form of Exhibit A or Exhibit B, as applicable, and an opinion of counsel in form, and
from legal counsel, reasonably acceptable to the Security Registrar and the Company to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Private
Placement Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act. Upon satisfaction of the conditions of any of the subparagraphs in this Section 2.05(f)(2), the Trustee shall cancel the Restricted Definitive
Securities of such series so transferred or exchanged and increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of the Unrestricted Global Security of such series. 

(3) Unrestricted Definitive Securities to Beneficial Interests in Unrestricted Global Securities. A Holder of an
Unrestricted Definitive Security of a series may exchange such Security for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security of such series or transfer such Definitive Securities of such series to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the
form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security of such series at any time. Upon receipt of a written request for such an exchange or transfer, the Trustee shall cancel the applicable Unrestricted Definitive Security and increase or
cause or be increased the aggregate principal amount of one of the Unrestricted Global Securities of such series. If any such exchange or transfer from a Definitive Security of a series to a beneficial interest is effected pursuant to subparagraphs
(2) or (3) of this Section 2.05(f) at a time when an Unrestricted Global Security of such series has not yet been issued, the Company shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.04, the
Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Securities of such series in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of Definitive Securities of such series so transferred. 

(g) Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Securities for Definitive Securities. Upon written request by a Holder of Definitive Securities
of a series and such Holder’s compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.05(g), the Trustee shall register the transfer or exchange of Definitive Securities of such series pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.05(a). In
addition to the requirements set forth in Section 2.05(a), the requesting Holder shall provide any additional certifications, documents, and information, as applicable, required pursuant to the following provisions of this Section 2.05(g).


  
 18 








 (1) Restricted Definitive Securities to Restricted Definitive Securities.
Any Restricted Definitive Security of a series may be transferred to and registered in the name of Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a Restricted Definitive Security of such series if the Trustee receives a completed certificate in
the form of Exhibit A, including the certifications, certificates and opinions of counsel required by item (3) thereof, if applicable. 

(2) Restricted Definitive Securities to Unrestricted Definitive Securities. Any Restricted Definitive Security of a
series may be exchanged by the Holder thereof for an Unrestricted Definitive Security of such series or transferred to a Person or Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Definitive Security of such series if the Security
Registrar receives a completed certificate from such Holder in the form of Exhibit A or Exhibit B, as applicable and an opinion of counsel in form, and from legal counsel, reasonably acceptable to the Trustee and the Company to the effect that such
exchange or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Private Placement Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act. 

(3) Unrestricted Definitive Securities to Unrestricted Definitive Securities. A Holder of Unrestricted Definitive
Securities of a series may transfer such Securities to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Definitive Security of such series in accordance with subsection 2.05(a). Upon receipt of a request to register such a
transfer, the Security Registrar shall register the Unrestricted Definitive Securities of such series pursuant to the instructions from the Holder thereof. 

(h) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Securities. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Security of a
series have been exchanged for Definitive Securities of such series or a particular Global Security of a series has been redeemed, repurchased or cancelled in whole and not in part, each such Global Security of such series shall be returned to or
retained and cancelled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.08. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security of such series is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery
thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security of such series or for Definitive Securities of such series, the principal amount of Securities of such series represented by such Global Security shall be reduced accordingly
and an endorsement may be made on such Global Security by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take
delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security of such series, such other Global Security shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement may be made on such Global Security by the Trustee or by the Depositary at
the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 
 (i) No Exchange or Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to
issue, exchange or register the transfer of any Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing (or otherwise delivery in accordance with the procedures of DTC) of a notice of redemption of less
than all the Outstanding Securities of the same series and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing or other delivery, (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of any series or portions thereof called for
redemption, nor (iii) to register the transfer of or exchange a Security of any series between the applicable record date pursuant to Section 2.01 (a)(5) and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. 

Section 2.06. Temporary Securities. 

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute temporary Securities (printed, lithographed or
typewritten) of any authorized denomination and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. Such temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, but with such
omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Securities, all as may be determined by the Company. Every temporary Security of any series shall be executed by the Company and be authenticated by the Trustee upon the same
conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with like effect, as the definitive Securities of such series. Without unnecessary delay the Company will execute and will furnish definitive Securities of such series and thereupon any or all
temporary Securities of such series may be surrendered in exchange therefor without charge to the Holders, at the office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 4.02 for the purpose of exchanges of Securities of such


  
 19 








 
series, and the Trustee shall authenticate and such office or agency shall deliver in exchange for such temporary Securities an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of such
series, unless the Company advises the Trustee to the effect that definitive Securities need not be executed and furnished until further notice from the Company. Until so exchanged, temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be
entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series authenticated and delivered hereunder. 

Section 2.07. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Securities. 

In case any temporary or definitive Security shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company (subject to the next
succeeding sentence) shall execute a new Security of the same series, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding in exchange and substitution for the mutilated Security, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Security so destroyed, lost
or stolen and upon the Company’s written request the Trustee (subject to the next succeeding sentence) shall authenticate and deliver, such Security. In every case the applicant for a substituted Security shall furnish to the Company and the
Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company and the Trustee evidence to their satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of the applicant’s Security and of the ownership thereof. The Trustee may authenticate any such substituted Security and deliver the same upon the written request or authorization of any Officer. Upon the issuance of
any substituted Security, 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. In case any Security that has matured or is about to mature shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company, instead of issuing a substitute Security, may pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender
thereof except in the case of a mutilated Security) if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as they may require to save them harmless, and, in case of destruction, loss or theft,
evidence to the satisfaction of the Company and the Trustee of the destruction, loss or theft of such Security and of the ownership thereof. 

Every replacement Security issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.07 shall constitute an additional contractual obligation
of the Company whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be found at any time, or be enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other
Securities of the same series duly issued hereunder. All Securities shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Securities, and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) any and all other rights or remedies, notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable instruments or
other securities without their surrender. 
 Section 2.08. Cancellation. 

All Securities surrendered for the purpose of payment, redemption, exchange or registration of transfer, if surrendered to the Company or any
paying agent, shall be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, or, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be cancelled by it, and no Securities shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly required or permitted by any of the provisions of
this Indenture. Upon the written request of the Company at the time of such surrender, the Trustee shall deliver to the Company canceled Securities held by the Trustee. If the Company shall otherwise acquire any of the Securities, however, such
acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

Section 2.09. Benefits of Indenture. 

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give or be construed to give to any Person, other than the parties
hereto and the Holders of the Securities, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Indenture, or under any covenant, condition or provision herein contained; all such covenants, conditions and provisions being for
the sole benefit of the parties hereto and of the Holders of the Securities. 

  
 20 








 Section 2.10. Authenticating Agent. 

So long as any of the Securities of any series remain Outstanding, there may be an Authenticating Agent for any or all such series of
Securities which the Trustee shall have the right to appoint. The Authenticating Agent shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series, including Securities issued upon exchange, registration of transfer
or partial redemption thereof, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. All references in this Indenture to
the authentication of Securities by the Trustee shall be deemed to include authentication by an Authenticating Agent for such series. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall be a corporation that has a combined capital
and surplus, as most recently reported or determined by it, sufficient under the laws of any jurisdiction under which it is organized or in which it is doing business to conduct a trust business, and that is otherwise authorized under such laws to
conduct such business and is subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authorities. If at any time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with these provisions, it shall resign immediately. Any
Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee at any time may, and upon written request by the Company shall, terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by
giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon resignation, termination or cessation of eligibility of any Authenticating Agent, the Trustee may appoint an eligible successor Authenticating Agent
acceptable to the Company. Any successor Authenticating Agent, upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder, shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent
pursuant hereto. 
 Section 2.11. Global Securities. 

(a) General. If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 2.01 that the Securities of a particular series are to be issued as
a Global Security, then the Company shall execute one or more Global Securities that (i) shall represent, and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of, all of the Outstanding Securities of such series,
(ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee and (iii) shall be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for the Depositary or otherwise delivered pursuant to the Depositary’s instructions and the Trustee in
accordance with Section 2.04 shall authenticate such Global Security or Global Securities. 
 (b) Euroclear and Clearstream
Procedures Applicable. The provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and the “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions” and “Customer
Handbook” of Clearstream, respectively, in effect at the relevant time shall be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Securities of such series that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream.

 Section 2.12. CUSIP Numbers. 

The Company in issuing the Securities of a series 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 Securityholders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained
in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly
notify the Trustee, in writing, of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers. 
 Section 2.13. Securities Denominated in Foreign
Currencies. 
 Except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.01 for Securities of any series, payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on, Securities of such series denominated in any Foreign Currency will be made in such Foreign Currency by one or more paying agents appointed by the Company (each, a “Foreign Paying Agent”). 

  
 21 








 In the event any Foreign Currency or Currencies in which any payment with respect to any series
of Securities may be made ceases to be a freely convertible Currency on United States Currency markets, for any date thereafter on which payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities of a series is due, the Company shall
select the Currency of payment for use on such date, all as provided in the Securities of such series, in a Board Resolution or in one or more indentures supplemental hereto. In such event, the Company shall notify the Foreign Paying Agent of the
Currency which it has selected to constitute the funds necessary to meet the Company’s Obligations on such payment date and of the amount of such Currency to be paid. Such amount shall be determined as provided in the Securities of such series,
in a Board Resolution or in one or more indentures supplemental hereto. The payment with respect to such payment date shall be deposited with the Foreign Paying Agent by the Company solely in the Currency so selected. 

Section 2.14. Wire Transfers. 

Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary in this Indenture, the Company may make any payment required to be deposited with the
Trustee on account of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the Securities by any method of wire transfer to an account designated in writing by the Trustee such that funds are available on or before the date such payment is to be made to
the Holders of the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof. 
 Section 2.15. Designated Currency. 

The Company may provide pursuant to Section 2.01 for Securities of any series that: 

(a) the obligation, if any, of the Company to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of any series in a Foreign
Currency or Dollars (the “Designated Currency”) as may be specified pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(12) is of the essence and agree that, to the fullest extent possible under applicable law, judgments in respect of Securities of
such series shall be given in the Designated Currency; 
 (b) the obligation of the Company to make payments in the Designated Currency of
the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Securities shall be discharged, notwithstanding any payment in any other Currency (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), only to the extent of the amount in the Designated Currency that
the Securityholder receiving such payment, in accordance with normal banking procedures, may purchase with the amount paid in such other Currency after any premium and cost of exchange on the business day in the country of issue of the Designated
Currency or in the international banking community immediately following the day on which such Securityholder receives such payment; 
 (c)
if the amount in the Designated Currency that may be so purchased for any reason falls short of the amount originally due, the Company shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to compensate for such shortfall; and 

(d) any obligation of the Company not discharged by such payment shall be due as a separate and independent obligation and, until discharged as
provided herein, shall continue in full force and effect. 
 ARTICLE III 

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES AND SINKING FUND PROVISIONS 

Section 3.01. Redemption. 

The Company may redeem the Securities of any series issued hereunder on and after the dates and in accordance with the terms established for
such series pursuant to Section 2.01 or 14.01. 

  
 22 








 Section 3.02. Notice of Redemption; Partial Redemption. 

(a) If the Company desires to exercise such right to redeem all or, as the case may be, a portion of the Securities of any series, the Company
shall, or shall instruct the Trustee in writing to, give notice of such redemption to Holders of the Securities of such series to be redeemed by mailing (or otherwise delivery in accordance with the procedures of DTC), first class postage prepaid, a
notice of such redemption not less than 10 days and not more than 60 days before the date fixed for redemption of that series to such Holders at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the Security Register (unless a shorter period is
specified in the Securities to be redeemed). Any notice that is mailed (or otherwise delivered) in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the registered Holder receives the notice. Notices
of redemption may be conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more subsequent events specified in the notice. The Trustee shall not have any duty to determine or verify the determination of whether any one or more of the conditions precedent have
been satisfied. In any case, failure duly to give such notice to the Holder of any Security of any series designated for redemption in whole or in part, or any defect in the notice, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption
of any other Securities of such series or any other series. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the
Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate evidencing compliance with any such restriction. 
 Each such notice of
redemption shall specify the date fixed for redemption and the redemption price at which Securities of that series are to be redeemed, the CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers, if any, assigned to such Securities, and shall state that:
(i) payment of the redemption price of such Securities to be redeemed will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, or, if none, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, upon presentation and surrender of
such Securities; (ii) interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in said notice; (iii) from and after said date interest will cease to accrue; (iv) the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the
case; and (v) if in connection with a redemption of any series of Securities pursuant to the optional redemption terms set forth in the supplemental indenture or Board Resolution governing such series of Securities, as applicable, any condition
to such redemption. If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the notice to the Holders of Securities of that series to be redeemed in whole or in part shall specify the particular Securities to be so redeemed. In case any
Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice that relates to such Security shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, and shall state that on and after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Security, a new
Security or Securities of such series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued. 
 (b) If all or less than
all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Company shall give the Trustee at least 45 days’ written notice (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) in advance of the date fixed for redemption as to the
aggregate principal amount of Securities of the series to be redeemed. If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the Trustee thereupon shall select from Securities of such series Outstanding not previously called for redemption, in
accordance with DTC’s procedures (in such manner as complies with applicable legal and stock exchange requirements, if any) and that may provide for the selection of a portion or portions (equal to $150,000 or any integral multiples of $1,000
in excess thereof) of the principal amount of such Securities of such series of a denomination larger than $150,000, the Securities of such series to be redeemed. The Trustee promptly shall notify the Company in writing of the numbers of the
Securities of such series to be redeemed, in whole or in part. 
 (c) A partial redemption of the Securities of the series to be redeemed may
be selected pro rata or by lot in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary or by such method as specified at the direction of the Issuer (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for such Securities or any integral multiple
thereof) of the principal amount of such Securities of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for such Securities. 

The Company, if and whenever it shall so elect, by delivery of instructions signed on its behalf by any of its Officers, may instruct the
Trustee or any paying agent to call all or any part of the Securities of a particular series for redemption and to give notice of redemption in the manner set forth in this Section 3.02, such notice to be in the name of the Company or its own
name, as the Trustee or such paying agent may deem advisable. In any case in which notice of redemption is to be given by the Trustee or any such paying agent, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to, or permit to remain with, the
Trustee or such paying agent, as the case may be, such Security Register, transfer books or other records, or suitable copies or extracts therefrom, sufficient to enable the Trustee or such paying agent to give any notice by mail that may be
required under the provisions of this Section 3.02. 

  
 23 








 Section 3.03. Payment Upon Redemption. 

(a) If the giving of notice of redemption shall have been completed as above provided, the Securities or portions of Securities of the series
to be redeemed specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the date and at the place stated in such notice at the applicable redemption price, together with interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption, in each case as established
pursuant to Section 2.01 or 14.01. Interest on such Securities or portions of Securities shall cease to accrue on and after the date fixed for redemption, unless the Company shall default in the payment of such redemption price and accrued
interest with respect to any such Security or portion thereof. On presentation and surrender of such Securities on or after the date fixed for redemption at the place of payment specified in the notice, such Securities shall be paid and redeemed at
the applicable redemption price for such series, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption (but if the date fixed for redemption is an Interest Payment Date, the interest installment payable on such date shall be
payable to the registered Holder at the close of business on the applicable record date pursuant to Section 2.01). 
 (b) Upon
presentation of any Security of such series that is to be redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute a new Security of the same series and tenor of authorized denominations in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security so
presented and the Trustee shall authenticate, and the office or agency where the Security is presented shall deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, such Security; except that if a Global Security is so surrendered, the Company
shall execute a new Global Security of like tenor in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Global Security so surrendered and, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate requesting
authentication and delivery, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Depositary for such Global Security, without service charge, such Global Security. 

Section 3.04. Sinking Fund. 

The provisions of Sections 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series, except as
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.01 for Securities of such series. 
 The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment
provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is 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 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 3.05. 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 3.05.
Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 
 The Company (i) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other
than any Securities previously called for redemption) and (ii) may apply as a credit Securities of a series that have been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of
permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of
such Securities, provided that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the redemption price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation
of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 

  
 24 








 Section 3.06. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 

Not less than 30 days 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 sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of the series, the portion thereof, if any, that is to be satisfied by payment of cash in the Currency in which the
Securities of such series are denominated (except as provided pursuant to Section 2.01), the portion thereof, if any, that is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 3.05 and the basis for
such credit. Together with such Officer’s Certificate, the Company will deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be
redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 3.02 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 3.02. Such
notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Section 3.03. 

ARTICLE IV 
 CERTAIN
COVENANTS 
 The following covenants shall apply to the Securities, except with respect to any series of Securities for which the
supplemental indenture or Board Resolution under which such series of Securities is issued or in the form of Security for such series expressly provides that any such covenant shall not apply to such series of Securities: 

Section 4.01. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. 

The Company will pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of a series at the time and place
and in the manner provided herein and established with respect to such Securities. Principal of, premium, if any and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if the paying agent, if other than one of the Company or a Subsidiary, holds as of
10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date due, money deposited by the Company in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay the principal of, or premium, if any, and interest then due. 

Section 4.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

So long as any series of the Securities remain Outstanding, the Company will maintain for such series an office or agency where Securities of
such series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of such 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 such series and
this Indenture may be given or served. Such designation will continue with respect to each office or agency until the Company, by written notice signed by any Officer and delivered to the Trustee, shall designate some other office or agency for such
purposes or any of them. 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 presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. Unless otherwise specified in accordance with Section 2.01 with respect to a
series of Securities, the Company initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as the office to be maintained by it for each such purpose. 

Section 4.03. Paying Agents; Security Registrar 

(a) The Company may appoint one or more paying agents, other than the Trustee, for all or any series of the Securities. If the Company fails to
appoint or maintain another entity as paying agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company, any Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries may act as paying agent. The Company hereby appoints the Trustee as the initial paying agent and the initial
Security Registrar. 
 (b) 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 or the Trustee all funds held by the paying agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities, and will promptly 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 funds held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a paying agent to pay all funds held by it to the Trustee.
Upon payment over to the Trustee, the paying agent (if other than the Company, a Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries) shall have no further liability for the funds. If the Company, any Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries acts as paying agent,
it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Securityholders all funds held by it as paying agent. 

  
 25 








 (c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, (i) the agreement to hold
funds in trust as provided in this Section 4.03 is subject to the provisions of Section 11.06, and (ii) the Company at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge or defeasance of this Indenture or for any
other purpose, may pay, or direct any paying agent to pay, to the Trustee all funds held in trust by the Company or such paying agent, such funds to be held by the Trustee upon the same terms and conditions as those upon which such funds were held
by the Company or such paying agent. Upon such payment by any paying agent to the Trustee, such paying agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such funds. 

Section 4.04. Statement by Officers as to Default. 

So long as any of the Securities remain outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year
a brief certificate (which need not comply with Section 13.06) executed by the principal executive, financial or accounting officer of the Company or any member of the Board of Directors of the Company indicating whether the signers of such
certificate know of any Default under this Indenture that occurred during the previous year. Such certificate need not include a reference to any Default that has been fully cured prior to the date as of which such certificate speaks. 

The Company shall provide written notice to the Trustee within 30 days of the occurrence of any event, act or condition that would constitute
a Default, describing the status of such Event of Default and describing what action the Company is taking or proposing to take with respect thereto. 

Section 4.05. Appointment to Fill Vacancy in Office of Trustee. 

The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or to fill a vacancy in the office of the Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided in
Section 7.10, a Trustee, so that there shall be at all times a Trustee hereunder. 
 Section 4.06. Waiver of Certain
Covenants. 
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.01 in respect of the Securities of such series and a
continuing Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium on, or principal of the Securities of such series, the Company may, with respect to Securities of any series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or
condition set forth in any covenant provided pursuant to this Article IV and any additional covenants added pursuant to Section 2.01 or Article IX for the benefit of the Holders of such series, if before the time for such compliance the Holders
of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term,
provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the Obligations of the Company and the duties of the
Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 
 ARTICLE V. 

SECURITYHOLDERS’ LISTS AND REPORTS BY THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE 

Section 5.01. Company to Furnish Trustee Names and Addresses of Securityholders. 

The Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee (a) semi-annually at least seven Business Days before each Interest
Payment Date for a series of Securities (and in all events at intervals of not more than six months) a list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Holders of each series of Securities as of such date,
provided that the Company shall not be obligated to furnish or cause to furnish such list at any time that the list shall not differ in any respect from the most recent list furnished to the 

  
 26 








 
Trustee by the Company and (b) at such other times as the Trustee may require in writing within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of similar form and
content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished; provided, however, that, in either case, no such list need be furnished for any series for which the Trustee shall be the Security Registrar. 

Section 5.02. Preservation of Information; Communications with Securityholders. 

(a) The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the Holders
of Securities contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01 and as to the names and addresses of Holders of Securities received by the Trustee in its capacity as Security Registrar (if acting in such capacity).

 (b) Securityholders may communicate as provided in Section 312(b) of the Trust Indenture Act with other Securityholders with respect
to their rights under this Indenture or under the Securities. 
 Section 5.03. Reports by the Company.

copies of the annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) that Parent may be required to file with
the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act. The Company shall be deemed to have complied with the previous sentence to the extent that such information, documents and reports are filed with the Commission
via EDGAR (or any successor electronic delivery procedure) or posted on Parent’s website; provided, that the Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to determine whether or not such documents or reports have been so filed. 

(b) Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of
such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled
to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates). 
 Section 5.04. Reports by the Trustee. 

(a) Any Trustee’s report required under Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act shall be transmitted on or before March 15 in
each year following the date hereof (commencing in 2015), so long as any Securities are Outstanding hereunder, and shall be dated as of a date convenient to the Trustee no more than 60 nor less than 45 days prior thereto. 

(b) A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Securityholders, be filed by the Trustee with the Company, with any
stock exchange upon which any Securities are listed and with the Commission. The Company agrees to promptly notify the Trustee, in writing, when any Securities become listed on any stock exchange or delisted therefrom. 

ARTICLE VI 
 REMEDIES OF THE
TRUSTEE AND SECURITYHOLDERS ON EVENT OF DEFAULT 
 Section 6.01. Events of Default. 

(a) Whenever used herein with respect to Securities of a particular series, “Event of Default” means any one or more of the
following events that has occurred and is continuing, except with respect to any series of Securities for which the supplemental indenture or Board Resolution under which such series of Securities is issued or in the form of Security for such series
expressly provides that any such Event of Default shall not apply to such series of Securities: 

  
 27 








 (1) a default in any payment of interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on any of
the Securities of such series as and when the same shall become due, which continues for 30 days; 
 (2) a default in the
payment of principal of or premium, if any, on any of the Securities of such series when due at its stated maturity date, upon optional redemption or otherwise; 

(3) default in the payment of any sinking fund installment as and when the same shall become due and payable by the terms of
the Securities of such series; 
 (4) a failure by the Company or any Guarantor to comply with their other agreements
contained in this Indenture or any indenture supplemental hereto with respect to such series (other than a default or breach that is specifically dealt with elsewhere in this Section 6.01 or in such supplemental indenture), which continues for
a period of 90 days after written notice thereof is given to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series; 

(5) a default under any debt for money borrowed by the Company or any Guarantor that results in acceleration of the maturity of
such debt, or failure to pay any such debt within any applicable grace period after final stated maturity, in an aggregate amount of the greater of (a) $150.0 million, or (b) 3.0% of Consolidated Total Assets, or in each case, its foreign
currency equivalent, at the time without such debt having been discharged or acceleration having been rescinded or annulled; 

(6) a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company, the Parent
or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of Parent and its subsidiaries) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) in an involuntary
case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee or sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company, the Parent or such Significant
Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs (or any similar relief is granted under any foreign laws), and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of
90 consecutive days; 
 (7) the Company, the Parent or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken
together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of Parent and its subsidiaries) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) shall commence a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar
law now or hereafter in effect, seek court protection, reorganization or other relief with respect of its debts under any law, consent to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or consent to the appointment of or
taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, examiner, assignee, custodian, trustee or sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company, the Parent or such Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property, or make any general
assignment for the benefit of creditors (or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to bankruptcy or insolvency); 

(8) any guarantee of a Guarantor ceases to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the terms of this Indenture)
or is declared null and void in a judicial proceeding or any Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under this Indenture or its guarantee; and 

(9) any other Event of Default provided in the supplemental indenture or Board Resolution under which such series of Securities
is issued or in the form of Security for such series. 
 (b) The foregoing will constitute an Event of Default whatever the reason for any
such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body. 

  
 28 








 (c) In the case of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(6) or
Section 6.01(a)(7) occurs, the principal of and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all Outstanding Securities will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default as described
herein shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series may declare, by notice to the Company in writing (and to the Trustee, if given by
Holders of such Securities) specifying the Event of Default, to be immediately due and payable the principal amount of all such Securities then Outstanding, plus premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest to the date of acceleration. 

(d) At any time after the principal of the Securities of that series shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or
decree for the payment of the amount due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of that series then Outstanding hereunder, by written notice to the
Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: (i) the Company has or has caused to be paid or deposited with the Trustee an amount sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest upon all the
Securities of that series and the principal of and premium, if any, on any and all Securities of that series that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest upon such principal and premium, if any, and, to the extent that
such payment is enforceable under applicable law, upon overdue installments of interest, at the rate expressed in the Securities of that series to the date of such payment or deposit), and (ii) any and all Events of Default under this Indenture with
respect to such series, other than the nonpayment of principal on Securities of that series that shall not have become due by their terms, shall have been remedied or waived as provided in Section 6.06. No such rescission and annulment shall extend
to or shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 (e) The Trustee shall give to the Securityholders of any
series, as the names and addresses of such Holders appear on the Security Register, notice by mail of all defaults actually known to a Responsible Officer that have occurred and are continuing with respect to such series, such notice to be
transmitted within 90 days after it becomes actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee; provided that, except in the case of default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of such
series, or in the payment of any sinking or purchase fund installment with respect to the Securities of such series, the Trustee may withhold such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee, or a trust committee of
directors or trustees and/or Responsible Officers determines in good faith that the withholding of such notice is not opposed to the interests of the Securityholders of such series (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative
duty to determine whether any direction is prejudicial to any Securityholder). Prior to taking any action under the Indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to, and if requested, be provided, indemnification or security satisfactory to it against any
loss, liability, cost or expense caused by taking or not taking such action. 
 Section 6.02. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits
for Enforcement by Trustee. 
 (a) The Company covenants that (i) in case it shall default in the payment of any installment of
interest on any of the Securities of a series, or any payment required by any sinking or analogous fund established with respect to that series as and when the same shall have become due and payable, and such default shall have continued for a
period of 30 days, or (ii) in case it shall default in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, on any of the Securities of a series when the same shall have become due and payable, whether upon maturity of the Securities of a
series or upon redemption or upon declaration or otherwise, then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of that series, the whole amount that then shall have been become due
and payable on all such Securities for principal, premium, if any, or interest, or both, with interest upon the overdue principal, premium, if any, and (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) upon overdue
installments of interest at the rate expressed in the Securities of that series; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, and the amount payable to the Trustee under
Section 7.06. 
 (b) If the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as
trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any action or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of the amounts so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree,
and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company or any Guarantor and collect the amounts adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or such Guarantor, wherever situated.


  
 29 








 (c) In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization,
readjustment, arrangement, examinership, composition or judicial proceedings affecting the Company or any Guarantor or its respective creditors or property, the Trustee shall have power to intervene in such proceedings and take any action therein
that may be permitted by the court and, except as otherwise provided by law, shall be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other papers and documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and of the Holders
of Securities of such series allowed for the entire amount due and payable by the Company under this Indenture at the date of institution of such proceedings and for any additional amount that may become due and payable by the Company after such
date, and to collect and receive any funds or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim, and to distribute the same in accordance with Section 6.03. Any receiver, assignee, examiner or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization is
hereby authorized by each of the Holders of Securities of such series to make such payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to such Securityholders, to pay to the Trustee any
amount due it under Section 7.06. 
 (d) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the terms
established with respect to Securities of that series, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of such Securities, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto. Any such suit or 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 payment to the Trustee of any amounts due under Section 7.06, be for the ratable benefit of the
Holders of the Securities of such series. 
 In case of an Event of Default, the Trustee in its discretion may proceed to protect and
enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of such rights, either at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the
specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law. 

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Securityholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities of that series or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Securityholder in any
such proceeding. 
 Section 6.03. Application of Funds Collected. 

Any funds collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article VI with respect to a particular series of Securities shall be applied in the
following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such funds on account of principal, premium, if any, or interest, upon presentation of the Securities of that series, and notation thereon the payment, if
only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of costs and expenses of collection and of all
amounts payable to the Trustee, acting in all of its capacities under this Indenture; 
 SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and

 Section 6.04. Limitation on Suits. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to any series of Securities, the Trustee, in conformity with its duties under
this Indenture, shall exercise all rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of such Securities, provided, that such Holders provide the Trustee with an indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to
the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest when due, no Holder of Securities of such Series may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or
such Securities unless (i) such Holder previously notified the Trustee that an Event of Default is continuing; (ii) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series requested the Trustee to
pursue the remedy; (iii) the requesting Holders of Securities of such Series offered the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; (iv) the Trustee has not complied with
such Holder’s request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and (v) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series have not given the Trustee a
direction inconsistent with the request within the 60-day period. 
 Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, any other provisions of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of any Security to receive payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on such Security, as therein provided, on or after the
respective due dates expressed in such Security (or in the case of redemption, on the redemption date), or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates or redemption date, shall not be impaired or
affected without the consent of such Holder. By accepting a Security hereunder it is expressly understood, intended and covenanted by the taker and Holder of every Security of such series with every other such taker and Holder and the Trustee, that
no one or more Holders of Securities of such series shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of any other of such Securities,
or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders of Securities of
such series. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section 6.04, each Securityholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity. 

Section 6.05. Rights and Remedies Cumulative; Delay or Omission not Waiver. 

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.07, all powers and remedies given by this Article VI to the Trustee or to the
Securityholders, to the extent permitted by law, shall be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the
performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture or otherwise established with respect to such Securities. 

(b) No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any of the Securities to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of
Default occurring and continuing shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or on acquiescence therein. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.04, every power and remedy given by this Article
VI or by law to the Trustee or the Securityholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Securityholders. 

Section 6.06. Control by Securityholders. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding, determined in accordance with
Section 8.04, 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 such series. The Trustee may,
however, refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture. In the event the Trustee receives inconsistent or conflicting requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders of such series, each representing less than a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such series, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may determine what action, if any, shall be taken and the Trustee may, in its sole discretion, take other actions. 

The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding affected
thereby, determined in accordance with Section 8.04, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities of such series may waive any past Default in the performance of any of the covenants contained herein or established pursuant to
Section 2.01 with respect to such series and its consequences, except a Default (1) in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any of the Securities of that series as and when the same


  
 31 








 
shall become due by the terms of such Securities otherwise than by acceleration and (2) in respect of a covenant or provision of this Indenture that cannot be modified or amended without the
consent of the Holder of each Security of such series). Upon any such waiver, the Default covered thereby shall be deemed to be cured for every purpose of this Indenture and the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities of such series
shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 6.07. Undertaking to Pay Costs. 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Securities by such Holder’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have
agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant
in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to
the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 6.07 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Securityholder, or group of
Securityholders, holding more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Securityholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on
any Security of such series, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security or established pursuant to this Indenture. 

Section 6.08. Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension of Laws. 

Each of the Company and the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or
plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the
Company and each Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not, 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 had been enacted. 

ARTICLE VII

TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01. Certain Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee.

exercise with respect to Securities of that series such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the
conduct of his or her own affairs. 
 (b) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its
own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (1) prior to the
occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series and after the curing or waiving of all such Events of Default with respect to that series that may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall with
respect to the Securities of such series be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to the Securities of such series except for the performance of such duties and obligations as
are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee with
respect to the Securities of such series may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
this Indenture; but in the case of any such 

  
 32 








 
certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not
they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical computations or other facts stated therein); 

(2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible
Officer of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved, in a final and non-appealable decision by a court of competent jurisdiction, that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 

(3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance
with the direction of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or
exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this Indenture;

provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section;

other matters relating to payment) or notice effected by the Company or any Paying Agent or any records maintained by any Security Registrar with respect to the Securities; and 

(6) none of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise
incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it
under the terms of this Indenture or adequate indemnity against such risk is not reasonably assured to it. 
 Section 7.02. Certain
Rights of Trustee. 
 Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01: 

(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate,

party or parties, even if it contains errors or is later deemed not authentic.

mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution or an instrument signed in the name of the Company by an Officer (unless other evidence in respect thereof is specifically prescribed herein).

Indenture, whether delivered to it or on its behalf. 
 (d) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers
vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Securityholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Securityholders shall have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against the
costs, expenses, claims, loss and liabilities that may be incurred therein or thereby. 

  
 33 








 (e) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good
faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture, provided, however, that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute gross negligence. 

(f) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, security or other papers or documents, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry into such matters as it may see fit, and if the Trustee shall
determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled upon reasonable notice and at reasonable times to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the

any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded. 
 (k) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special,
indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether such Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of
action. 
 (l) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities, unless

or by any Holder of the Securities, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture.

or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 

  
 34

(p) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder.

responsibility for the correctness of the same.

any funds received by any paying agent other than the Trustee. 
 Section 7.04. May Hold Securities. 

The Trustee or any paying agent or Security Registrar, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities

Section 7.05. Funds Held in Trust. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 11.06, all funds received by the Trustee, until used or applied as herein provided, shall be held in
trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any funds received by it hereunder except such as it may
agree with the Company to pay thereon. 
 Section 7.06. Compensation, Reimbursement and Indemnification. 

(a) The Company shall pay to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall be entitled to be paid, such compensation (which shall not be limited by any
provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust), as the Company and the Trustee from time to time may agree in writing, for all services rendered by it in the execution of the trusts hereby created and in the
exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses and disbursements incurred
or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense or
disbursement as may arise from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Company and each Guarantor, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee (and its officers, agents, directors and employees) for, and shall hold it harmless

Holder or any other Person) in the premises or enforcing this Indenture, including this Section 7.06. The Trustee shall notify the Company and each applicable Guarantor 

  
 35 








 
promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee so to notify the Company and each applicable Guarantor shall not relieve the Company or any Guarantor of its
obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Company or any Guarantor has been prejudiced by such failure. Neither the Company nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. 
 (b) The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section 7.06 to compensate and indemnify the
Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses and disbursements shall: (i) be secured by a lien prior to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the
benefit of the Holders of particular Securities; and (ii) survive the termination of this Indenture and earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee. 

Section 7.07. Reliance on Officer’s Certificate and other Documents. 

Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem
it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed), in the absence of gross
negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee and such certificate, in the absence of gross negligence or willful
misconduct on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof. 

Section 7.08. Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. 

If the Trustee has or shall acquire any “conflicting interest” within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act,
the Trustee and the Company shall in all respects comply with the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. 

Section 7.09. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. 

There shall at all times be a Trustee with respect to the Securities issued hereunder which shall at all times be a corporation organized and
doing business under the laws of the United States or any State or Territory thereof or of the District of Columbia, or a corporation or other Person permitted to act as trustee by the Commission, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, and subject to supervision or examination by Federal, State, Territorial, or District of Columbia authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 7.09 the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. The Company may not, nor may any Affiliate of the Company, serve as Trustee. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of
this Section 7.09, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 7.10. 

Section 7.10. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 

(a) The Trustee or any successor hereafter appointed may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving
written notice thereof to the Company no later than 30 days prior to the proposed date of resignation and by transmitting notice of resignation by mail, first class postage prepaid, to the Securityholders of such series, as their names and addresses
appear upon the Security Register. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee with respect to Securities of such series. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted
appointment within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns, the retiring Trustee, at the expense of the Company, or the Company may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee with respect to Securities
of such series, or any Securityholder of that series who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months may on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a
successor trustee. Such court may thereupon after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee. 

  
 36 








 (b) In case at any time any one of the following shall occur, the Company may remove the Trustee
with respect to all or any series of Securities and appoint a successor trustee, or, unless the Trustee’s duty to resign is stayed as provided herein, any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities for at least
six months, on behalf of that Holder and all others similarly situated, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon after such notice, if any,
as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee: 
 (1) the Trustee shall fail to
comply with the provisions of Section 7.08 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months; or 

(2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.09 and shall fail to resign
after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Securityholder; or 
 (3) the Trustee shall become incapable of
acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or commence a voluntary bankruptcy proceeding, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or consented to, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the
Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation. 
 If an instrument of acceptance by a
successor trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of removal, the Trustee being removed may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment
of a successor trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 (c) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of any series at the time Outstanding at any time may remove the Trustee with respect to such series by so notifying the Trustee and the Company and may appoint a successor trustee for such series with the consent of the Company. 

(d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee with respect to the Securities of a series pursuant to
any of the provisions of this Section shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.11. 

(e) Any successor trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 7.10 may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more series
or all of such series, and at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series. 

Section 7.11. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

(a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor trustee so appointed
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without
any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee. Upon the written request of the Company or the successor trustee, such retiring Trustee, upon payment of its charges,
shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights, powers, and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall assign, transfer and deliver to such successor trustee all property and funds held by such retiring
Trustee hereunder. 
 (b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not
all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor trustee shall accept such appointment
and which (i) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable 

  
 37 








 
to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to
which the appointment of such successor trustee relates, (ii) shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the
Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (iii) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide
for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of
the same trust, that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee and that no Trustee shall be responsible for any act or failure to
act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder. Upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein, and such retiring Trustee shall
have no further responsibility with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates for the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested in the
Trustee under this Indenture. Each such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series
to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates. Upon the written request of the Company or any successor trustee, such retiring Trustee shall assign, transfer and deliver to such successor trustee, to the extent contemplated by such
supplemental indenture, the property and funds held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates. 

(c) Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company may execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and
confirming to such successor trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in Section 7.11 (a) or (b), as the case may be. 

(d) No successor trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be qualified and
eligible under this Article VII. 
 (e) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 7.11, the
successor trustee shall cause a notice of its succession to be transmitted to Securityholders. 
 Section 7.12. Merger, Conversion,
Consolidation or Succession to Business. 
 Any corporation or other entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate
trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation or other entity shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 7.08 and eligible under the provisions of Section 7.09,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then
in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor trustee had itself authenticated such
Securities. 
 Section 7.13. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company. 

The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, excluding any creditor relationship described in
Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent included therein.

 ARTICLE VIII 

CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS 

Section 8.01. Evidence of Action by Securityholders. 

Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the Holders of a majority or specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of a particular series may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action the Holders of
such majority or specified percentage of that series have joined therein may be evidenced by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by such Holders of Securities of that series in Person or by agent or proxy appointed
in writing. 
 If the Company shall solicit from the Securityholders of any series any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action, the Company, at its option, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate, may fix in advance a record date for such series for the determination of Securityholders entitled to give such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action may be
given before or after the record date, but only the Securityholders of record at the close of business on the record date shall be deemed to be Securityholders for the purposes of determining whether Securityholders of the requisite proportion of
Outstanding Securities of that series have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities of that series shall be computed
as of the record date; provided, however, that no such authorization, agreement or consent by such Securityholders on the record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later
than six months after the record date. 
 Section 8.02. Proof of Execution by Securityholders. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Securityholder (such proof will not require
notarization) or his agent or proxy and proof of the holding by any Person of any of the Securities shall be sufficient if made in the following manner: 

(a) The fact and date of the execution by any such Person of any instrument may be proved in any reasonable manner acceptable to the Trustee.

 (b) The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register of such Securities or by a certificate of the Security Registrar
thereof. 
 (c) The Trustee may require such additional proof of any matter referred to in this Section as it shall deem necessary. 

Section 8.03. Who May be Deemed Owners. 

Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of any Security, the Company, the Trustee, any paying agent and any Security
Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name such Security shall be registered upon the books of the Company as the absolute owner of such Security (whether or not such Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership
or writing thereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 2.03) interest on such Security and for all other purposes;
and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent nor any Security Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 

None of the Company, the Trustee, any paying agent or the Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the
records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

 Section 8.04. Certain Securities Owned by Company Disregarded. 

In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Securities of a particular series have concurred in any
direction, consent of waiver under this Indenture, the Securities of that series that are owned by the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor on the Securities of that series or by an Affiliate of the Company or any Guarantor shall be
disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver, only Securities of such
series that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. The Securities so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding for the purposes of this Section, if the pledgee shall
establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Securities and that the pledgee is not an Affiliate. In case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of
counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an Officer’s Certificate listing and identifying all Securities of a particular series, if any known by the Company
or a Guarantor to be owned or held by or for the account of any of the above described Persons and, subject to Sections 7.01 and 7.02, the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officer’s Certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts
therein set forth and of the fact that all Securities of such particular series not listed therein are Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination. 

Section 8.05. Actions Binding on Future Securityholders. 

At any time prior to the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 8.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the
majority or percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a particular series specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Security of that series that is shown by the evidence to be included in the
Securities the Holders of which have consented to such action, by filing written notice with the Trustee, and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 8.02, may revoke such action so far as concerns such Security. Except as aforesaid any
such action taken by the Holder of any Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Security, and of any Security issued in exchange therefor, on registration of transfer thereof or in
place thereof, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Security. Any action taken by the Holders of the majority or percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a particular series specified
in this Indenture in connection with such action shall be conclusively binding upon the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of all the Securities of that series. 

ARTICLE IX 
 SUPPLEMENTAL
INDENTURES 
 Section 9.01. Supplemental Indentures Without the Consent of Securityholders. 

In addition to any supplemental indenture otherwise authorized by this Indenture, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee from time to

purposes: 
 (a) to cure any ambiguity, to correct any mistake, to correct or supplement any provision in this Indenture that may be
defective or inconsistent with any other provision in this Indenture, or to make other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising under this Indenture; 

(b) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Company or a Guarantor and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants,
agreements, and obligations in this Indenture and in the Securities of a series in accordance with this Indenture;

 (g) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated
Securities; 
 (h) make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder of Securities; 

(i) to add or appoint a successor or separate Trustee or other agent; 

(j) to comply with any requirement in connection with the qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act; or 

(k) to conform any provision in this Indenture to the “Description of notes” (or similar) section of any prospectus prepared in
connection with the issuance of any particular series of Securities, provided, that such amendment only affects such series, as set forth in the Officer’s Certificate. 

Upon the written request of the Company and upon receipt by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of the documents described in
Section 9.05, the Trustee shall join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall
not be obligated to enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 

Any supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of this Section 9.01 may be executed by the Company, the Guarantors and the
Trustee without the consent of the Holders of any of the Securities at the time Outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 9.02. 

Section 9.02. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Securityholders. 

With the consent (evidenced as provided in Section 8.01) of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of a series at the time Outstanding affected by such supplemental indenture or indentures, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee from time to time and at any time may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto (which
shall conform to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect) 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 or of
modifying in any manner not covered by Section 9.01 the rights of the Holders of the Securities of such series under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the Holders of each Security of
such series then Outstanding and affected thereby, shall (i) change the stated maturity of the principal of, or installment of interest on, any Security of such series; (ii) reduce the principal amount of, or the rate of interest on, any
Security of such series; (iii) reduce any premium, if any, payable on the redemption or required repurchase of any Security of such series or change the date on which any Securities of such series may be redeemed or required to be
repurchased; (iv) change the coin or currency in which the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Securities of such series is payable; (v) impair the right of any Holder of any Security of such series to institute suit for
the enforcement of any payment of principal and interest (including Additional Amounts, if any) on such Holder’s Securities on or after the stated maturity of any Securities of such series; (vi) reduce the percentage in principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of such series, the consent of whose Holders is required in order to amend, modify or supplement this 

  
 41 








 
Indenture; (vii) modify any of the provisions of Section 4.06 or Section 6.06, except to increase any percentage of consents required or to provide that certain other provisions of
this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby; (viii) make any change to the provisions of Article XV of this Indenture in any manner adverse to the Holders of such
Securities; (ix) make any change to the provisions of Article XIV of this Indenture that adversely affects the right of any Holder of such Securities in any material respect or amend the terms of such Securities in a way that would result in a
loss of an exemption from any of the Taxes described thereunder or any exemption from any obligation to withhold or deduct Taxes so described thereunder unless the payor agrees to pay Additional Amounts, if any, in respect thereof; or
(x) modify any of the provisions of this Section 9.02. 
 A supplemental indenture that changes or eliminates any covenant, Event
of Default or other provision of this Indenture that has been expressly included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, if any, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to
such covenant, Event of Default or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series. 

It shall not be necessary for the consent of Securityholders of a series affected thereby under this Section 9.02 to approve the
particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. 

Promptly after the execution by the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 9.02, the Company shall mail or caused to be mailed (or otherwise deliver in accordance with the procedures of DTC) a notice thereof by first class mail to the Holders of Securities of each series affected thereby at their addresses as
they shall appear on the Security Register, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Company to mail or otherwise deliver such notice, or any defect therein, shall not in any way impair or
affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture. 
 Section 9.03. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. 

Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX or Section 10.01, this Indenture shall be
and be deemed to be modified and amended with respect to such series in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the Company, the Guarantors and
the Holders of Securities of the series affected thereby shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental
indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes. 
 Section 9.04.
Securities Affected by Supplemental Indentures. 
 Securities of any series affected by a supplemental indenture and authenticated
and delivered after the execution of such supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article or of Section 10.01 may bear a notation in form approved by the Company, provided such form meets the requirements of any exchange upon
which such series may be listed, as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities of that series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company, to
any modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared by the Company, authenticated by the Trustee and delivered in exchange for the Securities of that series then Outstanding. 

Section 9.05. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. 

Upon the written request of the Company and, if applicable, upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Securityholders
required to consent thereto as aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the 

  
 42 








 
Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee in its discretion may but shall not be obligated to enter into such supplemental
indenture. The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, shall receive an Opinion of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article IX is authorized or
permitted by, and conforms to, the terms of this Article IX. 
 Promptly after the execution by the Company and the Trustee of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.05, the Trustee shall transmit by mail, first class postage prepaid, a notice, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture, such notice to be
prepared by the Company, to the Securityholders of each series affected thereby as their names and addresses appear upon the Security Register. Any failure of the Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way
impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture. 
 ARTICLE X 

SUCCESSOR 
 Section 10.01.
Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets by the Company. 
 The Company may, without the consent of the Holders of any Outstanding
Securities, consolidate with or sell, lease or convey all or substantially all of its properties or assets to, or merge with or into, any other Person, provided, that: 

(i) the Company is the continuing Person or, alternatively, the successor Person formed by or resulting from such consolidation
or merger, or the Person that receives the transfer of such properties or assets (the “Successor Company”), is a corporation or limited liability company or similar entity organized under the laws of England and Wales, any member
state of the European Economic Area or any state of the United States or the District of Columbia and expressly assumes by means of a supplemental indenture the Obligations of the Company under the Securities; 

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of Default and no event that, after notice or the lapse of
time, or both, would become an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (iii) each Guarantor (unless it is the
other party to the transactions described above, in which case the second succeeding paragraph shall apply) shall have by means of a supplemental indenture confirmed that its Guarantee shall apply to the Successor Company’s Obligations under
this Indenture and the Securities; and 
 (iv) an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel are delivered to the
Trustee, each stating that the consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer complies with clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above. 

The Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, the Company, and may exercise all of the rights and powers of the Company,
under this Indenture. In such a case, the Company will be relieved of all Obligations and covenants under the Securities and this Indenture, provided, that in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the
Company, the Company will not be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Securities. 

Section 10.02. Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets by a Guarantor. 

Any Guarantor may, without the consent of the Holders of any Outstanding Securities, consolidate with or sell, lease or convey all or
substantially all of its properties or assets to, or merge with or into, any other Person, provided, that: 

  
 43 








 (i) such Guarantor is the continuing Person or, alternatively, the successor

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of Default and no event that, after notice or the lapse of
time, or both, would become an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and 
 (iii) an Officer’s Certificate
and Opinion of Counsel are delivered to the Trustee, each stating that the consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer complies with clauses (i) and (ii) above. 

For the avoidance of doubt, any Guarantor whose Guarantee is to be released in accordance with the terms of such Guarantee shall not be
required to comply with clause (i) of the immediately preceding paragraph. 
 The Successor Guarantor will succeed to, and be
substituted for, such Guarantor, and may exercise all of the rights and powers of such Guarantor, under this Indenture. In such a case, such Guarantor will be relieved of all obligations and covenants under the Securities and this Indenture,
provided, that in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of such Guarantor, such Guarantor will not be released from its Guarantee. 

ARTICLE XI 
 SATISFACTION AND
DISCHARGE 
 Section 11.01. Applicability of Article. 

If the Securities of a series are denominated and payable only in Dollars (except as provided pursuant to Section 2.01), then the
provisions of this Article XI relating to defeasance of Securities shall be applicable except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.01 for Securities of such series. Defeasance provisions, if any, for Securities denominated in a Foreign
Currency may be specified pursuant to Section 2.01. 
 Section 11.02. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 

If at any time: 
 (a) the
Company or any Guarantor shall have delivered or shall have caused to be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation all Securities of a series theretofore authenticated (other than any Securities that shall have been destroyed, lost or stolen and
that shall have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.07) and Securities for whose payment funds or Governmental Obligations have theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company or such Guarantor (and
thereupon repaid to the Company or such Guarantor or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 11.06); or 
 (b) all such
Securities of a particular series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation shall have become due and payable or are by their terms to become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption, and the Company or any Guarantor shall irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds the entire amount (in funds in Dollars or
Governmental Obligations or a combination thereof) (except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.01) sufficient to pay the entire Indebtedness including the principal and premium, if any, and interest to the date of such deposit (if such
Securities have become due and payable) or to the maturity thereof or the date of redemption of such Securities, as the case may be; and 

  
 44 








 (c) if in either case of clauses (a) or (b) above the Company or any Guarantor shall
also pay or cause to be paid all other sums payable hereunder with respect to such series by the Company or any Guarantor, then this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to such series except for the provisions of Sections
2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 4.02, 4.03, 7.05, 7.10, 11.04 and 11.05, that shall survive until the date of maturity or redemption date, as the case may be, and Sections 7.06 and 11.06, that shall survive to such date and thereafter, and the Trustee, on demand
of the Company and at the cost and expense of the Company shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction of and discharging this Indenture with respect to such series. 

Section 11.03. Defeasance and Discharge of Obligations; Covenant Defeasance. 

(a) The Company and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clause (c) of this
Section 11.03, be deemed to have been discharged from their Obligations with respect to all Outstanding Securities of a series issued under this Indenture and Guarantees of such series issued under this Indenture on the date the conditions set
forth below in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 11.03(c) are satisfied with respect to such series (“legal defeasance”). For this purpose, legal defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and
discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the Outstanding Securities of such series, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “Outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 11.04 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred
to below, and to have satisfied all its other Obligations under such Securities and this Indenture, including the Obligations of the Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging the same), except for the provisions of Sections 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 4.02, 7.05, 7.06, 7.10, 11.04, 11.05 and 11.06, which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged under this Indenture. 

Subject to compliance with this Article 11, the Company may exercise its legal defeasance option under this clause (a) notwithstanding
the prior exercise of its covenant defesance option under clause (b) of this Section 11.03. 
 (b) In addition, the Company, at
its option and at any time, by written notice executed by an Officer delivered to the Trustee, may subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clause (c) of this Section 11.03, elect to have its obligations and the obligations
of the Guarantors, to the extent applicable to each, under Section 4.04 and Section 5.03 and each covenant contained in Article X, and any other covenant contained in the Board Resolution or supplemental indenture relating to such series
pursuant to Section 2.01, discharged with respect to all Outstanding Securities of a series, this Indenture and any indentures supplemental to this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (“covenant defeasance”),
such discharge to be effective on the date the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (vi) of clause (c) of this Section 11.03 are satisfied with respect to such series, and such Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be
not “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration of Securityholders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be “Outstanding” for all other
purposes under this Indenture. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Securities of a series, the Company and each Guarantor may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term,
condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other
document and such omission to comply shall not constitute an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a)(4) or otherwise, and clauses (4), (5) and (8) of Section 6.01(a) shall no longer apply to such series, but except as specified in
this Section 11.03(b), the remainder of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under the Securities of such series, this Indenture, and any indentures supplemental to this Indenture with respect to such series shall be
unaffected thereby. 
 (c) The following shall be the conditions to the application of Section 11.03 to the Outstanding Securities of
the applicable series: 
 (i) the Company or any Guarantor irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee or, at the option
of the Trustee, with a trustee satisfactory to the Trustee and the Guarantors or the Company, as the case may be, under the terms of an irrevocable trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, an amount in funds, in Dollars or
in Governmental Obligations or a combination thereof that through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in accordance with their terms will provide money in an amount sufficient, as determined by a nationally recognized firm of certified
public accountants, to pay the principal and premium, if any, and interest on such Securities on the scheduled due dates therefor 

  
 45 








 
(and the Company shall specify whether such Securities are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date), provided that (A) the trustee of the irrevocable trust shall have
been irrevocably instructed to pay such funds or the proceeds of such Governmental Obligations to the Trustee and (B) the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such funds or the proceeds of such Governmental Obligations to the
payment of said principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Securities of such series; 
 (ii) the Company
delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent specified herein relating to defeasance or covenant defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with, and an Opinion of Counsel to the same effect;

 (iii) no Default or Event of Default with respect to such series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such
deposit (other than, if applicable, a Default or Event of Default with respect to that series of Securities resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit); 

(iv) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee (i) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the deposit and related legal
defeasance or covenant defeasance will not cause the Holders and beneficial owners of the Securities of such series to recognize income, gain or loss for United States Federal income tax purposes and such Holders and beneficial owners will be
subject to United States Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner, and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred (and if the Company elects legal defeasance, such Opinion of
Counsel shall be based upon a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service or a change in law to that effect) and (ii) an Opinion of Irish Counsel that the deposit and related defeasance will not cause payments on the Securities of such series to be
subject to Irish withholding tax in a manner different than would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; 

(v) such covenant defeasance shall not (i) cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest for purposes of the Trust
Indenture Act with respect to any Securities or (ii) result in the trust arising from such deposit to constitute, unless it is qualified, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940; and 

(vi) notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 11.03, such covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance
with any additional or substitute terms, conditions or limitations which may be imposed on the Company or the Guarantors pursuant to Section 2.01. 

After such irrevocable deposit made pursuant to this Section 11.03 and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth herein, the Trustee
upon request shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations pursuant to this Section 11.03. 

Section 11.04. Deposited Funds to be Held in Trust. 

All funds or Governmental Obligations deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Sections 11.02 or 11.03 shall be held in trust and shall be
available for payment as due, either directly or through any paying agent (including the Company or any Guarantor acting as its own paying agent), to the Holders of the particular series of Securities for the payment or redemption of which such
funds or Governmental Obligations have been deposited with the Trustee. 
 Section 11.05. Payment of Funds Held by Paying
Agents. 
 In connection with the provisions of Section 11.02 or 11.03, all funds or Governmental Obligations then held by any
paying agent under the provisions of this Indenture shall, upon demand of the Company or any Guarantor, be paid to the Trustee and thereupon such paying agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such funds or Governmental
Obligations. 

  
 46 








 Section 11.06. Repayment to the Guarantors or the Company. 

Any funds or Governmental Obligations deposited with any paying agent or the Trustee, or then held by the Company or any Guarantor, in trust
for payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities of a particular series that are not applied but remain unclaimed by the Holders of such Securities for at least two years after the date upon which the principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on such Securities shall have respectively become due and payable, shall be repaid to the Company or such Guarantor, as applicable, or if then held by the Company or any Guarantor shall be discharged from such trust; and
thereafter, the paying agent and the Trustee shall be released from all further liability with respect to such funds or Governmental Obligations, and the Holder of any of the Securities entitled to receive such payment shall thereafter, as an
unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company or the Guarantors, as applicable, for the payment thereof. Anything in this Article XI to the contrary notwithstanding, subject to Section 7.06, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the
Company or the Guarantors, as applicable, from time to time upon request by the Company or the Guarantors any funds or Governmental Obligations (or other property and any proceeds therefrom) held by it as provided in Sections 11.02 or 11.03 which,
in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect a
defeasance or covenant defeasance, as the case may be, in accordance with this Article XI. 
 Section 11.07. Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or paying agent is unable to apply any funds or Governmental Obligations in accordance with Section 11.02 or 11.03 by
reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s and each Guarantor’s obligations under this
Indenture, any indentures supplemental to this Indenture with respect to the applicable series of Securities and the Securities of such series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.02 or 11.03,
as the case may be, until such time as the Trustee or paying agent is permitted to apply all such funds or Governmental Obligations in accordance with Section 11.02 or 11.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that if the Company or any
Guarantor has made any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Securities of such series following the reinstatement of its obligations as aforesaid, the Company or such Guarantor, as applicable, shall be subrogated to the rights
of the Holders of such Securities of such series to receive such payment from the funds or Governmental Obligations held by the Trustee or paying agent. 

ARTICLE XII 
 IMMUNITY OF
INCORPORATORS, STOCKHOLDERS, OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS 
 Section 12.01. No Recourse. 

No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of this Indenture, or of any Security, or for any claim based thereon or
otherwise in respect thereof, shall be had against any incorporator, shareholder, officer, director or employee, past, present or future as such, of the Company or any Guarantor or of any predecessor or successor corporation, either directly or
through the Company or the Guarantors or any such predecessor or successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood
that this Indenture and the Obligations issued hereunder are solely corporate obligations, and that no such personal liability whatever shall attach to, or is or shall be incurred by, the incorporators, shareholders, officers, directors or employees

premium, if any, or interest or principal and premium, if any, may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date that payment was due, and no interest shall accrue on that payment for the period
from and after that interest or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date of that payment on the next succeeding Business Day.

invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Indenture or of such Securities, but this Indenture and such Securities shall be construed as if such
invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or therein. 
 Section 13.11. No Adverse
Interpretation of Other Agreements. 
 This Indenture may not be used to interpret another indenture, loan or debt agreement of the

Section 13.13. Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process. 

The Company and each of the Guarantors agrees that any legal suit, action or proceeding brought by any party to enforce any rights under or
with respect to this Indenture, any Security and any Guarantee or any other document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby may be instituted in any state or Federal court in The City of New York, State of New York, United States of
America, irrevocably waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or 

  
 50 








 
proceeding, irrevocably waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any claim that and agrees not to claim or plead in any court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in such court
has been brought in an inconvenient forum and irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment
in respect thereof. The Company and the Guarantors agree that a final non-appealable judgment in any such suit, action or proceedings shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on
the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. 
 The Company and each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
designates and appoints
                                         as its
authorized agent to receive and forward on its behalf service of any and all process which may be served in any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court and agrees that service of process upon
                                         shall be
deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company in any such suit, action or proceeding and shall be taken and held to be valid personal service upon the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be. Nothing in this
Section 13.13 shall affect the right of the Holders to serve process in any manner permitted by law or limit the right of the Holders to bring proceedings against the Company or the Guarantors in the courts of any jurisdiction or jurisdictions.
The Company and each Guarantor further agrees to take any and all action, including the execution and filing of any and all such documents and instruments, as may be necessary to continue such designation and appointment of
                                         in full
force and effect so long as the Securities are outstanding. If for any reason
                                         ceases
to be available to act as such, the Company and each Guarantor agrees to designate a new agent in the United States. 
 To the extent that
the Company or the Guarantors has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court (including any court in the United States, the State of New York, Ireland, England, Wales or other jurisdiction in which the Company or the
Guarantors, or any successor thereof, may be organized or any political subdivisions thereof) or from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with
respect to itself or its property or assets, this Indenture, the Securities, the Guarantees or any other documents or actions to enforce judgments in respect of any thereof, then each of Company and each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably waives
such immunity, and any defense based on such immunity, in respect of its obligations under the above-referenced documents and the transactions contemplated thereby, to the extent permitted by law. 

Section 13.14. Waiver of Jury Trial. 

EACH OF THE COMPANY, EACH GUARANTOR, THE HOLDERS AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE SECURITIES OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 

Section 13.15. USA Patriot Act.

and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with U.S. Bank National
Association. 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 USA Patriot Act.

 ARTICLE XIV 

ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS; CERTAIN TAX PROVISIONS 

Section 14.01. Tax Redemption. 

The Company may redeem the Securities of a particular series, in whole but not in part, at its discretion at any time upon giving not less
than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to the Holders of such Securities (which notice will be irrevocable and given in accordance with the procedures described in Section 3.02), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate
principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the redemption date, and all Additional Amounts (if any) then due and which will become due on the redemption date as a result of the redemption or
otherwise, if on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of such Securities, the Company (or any Guarantor with respect to any Guarantee) is or would be required to pay Additional Amounts, and the Company (or any Guarantor with
respect to any Guarantee) cannot avoid any such payment obligation by taking reasonable measures available to it (including, without limitation, making payment through a paying agent located in another jurisdiction or, in the case of a payment by
any Guarantor, by having such payment be made by the Company or another Guarantor that can make such payment without the obligation to pay Additional Amounts), and the requirement arises as a result of: 

(a) any amendment to, or change in, the laws or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder of a relevant Taxing Jurisdiction which
change or amendment is announced and becomes effective on or after the Issue Date of such Securities (or, if the applicable Taxing Jurisdiction became a Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the Issue Date of such Securities, such later date); or 

(b) any amendment to, or change in, an official written interpretation or application of such laws, regulations or rulings (including by
virtue of a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published administrative practice) which amendment or change is announced and becomes effective on or after the Issue Date of such Securities (or, if the
applicable Taxing Jurisdiction became a Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the Issue Date of such Securities, such later date) (each of the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), a “Change in Tax Law”). 

The Company will not give any such notice of redemption earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company (or any Guarantor
with respect to any Guarantee) would be obligated to make such of Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Securities of such series were then due, and the obligation to pay Additional Amounts must be in effect at the time such notice is
given. Prior to the delivery of any notice of redemption of the Securities of any series pursuant to the foregoing, the Company will deliver to the Trustee (a) an Officer’s Certificate stating that the obligation to pay such Additional
Amounts cannot be avoided by the Company (or any Guarantor with respect to any Guarantee) taking reasonable measures available to it; and (b) an Opinion of Counsel from independent tax counsel qualified under the laws of the relevant Taxing
Jurisdiction to the effect that the Company (or any Guarantor with respect to any Guarantee) has or will become obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law. 

The Trustee will accept and shall be entitled to rely on such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as sufficient evidence of the
existence and satisfaction of the conditions precedent as described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders. 

Section 14.02. Payment of Additional Amounts. 

All payments made by or on behalf of the Company under or with respect to any Securities of any series (or by any Guarantor with respect to
any Guarantee) will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future Taxes, unless the Company (or such Guarantor) is required to withhold or deduct such Taxes by law. If the Company (or any
Guarantor) is so required to withhold or deduct from any payment made under or with respect to the Securities of any series any amount for or on account of any Taxes imposed under (1) any jurisdiction in which the Company (or any Guarantor) is
then incorporated, organized, engaged in business or resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein or (2) any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made by or on behalf of the
Company (or any 

  
 52 








 
Guarantor) (including the jurisdiction of any paying agent for the Securities of such series) or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein (each of (1) and
(2), a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), the Company (or such Guarantor) will pay to each Holder such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder and beneficial
owner of the Securities of such series (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than the amount such Holder or beneficial owner would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided,
however, no Additional Amounts will be payable to a Holder with respect to: 
 (a) any Taxes that would not have been imposed but for the
existence of any actual or deemed present or former connection between the Holder or the beneficial owner of the Securities of such series (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, the
relevant Holder or beneficial owner, if the Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a nominee, trust, partnership or corporation) and the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including being a resident of such jurisdiction for Tax purposes), other than
the holding of such Security, the enforcement of rights under such Security or under a Guarantee or the receipt of any payments in respect of such Security or Guarantee; 

(b) any Taxes imposed as a result of the presentation of a Security of such series for payment (in cases in which presentation is required)
more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the Holder (except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had such Security been presented on the last day of such 30-day period); 
 (c) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, personal property, transfer or similar Taxes;

 (d) any Taxes payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments under, or with respect to, Securities of such series or any
Guarantee; 
 (e) any Taxes imposed or withheld by reason of the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner of Securities of such series to
comply with any reasonable written request of the Company or the relevant Guarantor, addressed to the Holder and made at least 60 days before any such withholding or deduction would be made, to satisfy any certification, identification, information
or other reporting requirements, whether required by statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of a Taxing Jurisdiction, as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of, Taxes imposed by the
Taxing Jurisdiction (including, without limitation, a certification that the Holder or beneficial owner is not resident in the Taxing Jurisdiction), but in each case, only to the extent the Holder or beneficial owner is not prohibited from complying
with such request; 
 (f) any Tax imposed on or with respect to any payment by the Company or the relevant Guarantor to the Holder if such
Holder is a fiduciary or partnership or Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment, to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, a member of such a partnership or the beneficial owner of such payment
would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the actual Holder of Securities of such series; 

(g) any Taxes imposed pursuant to Sections 1471-1474 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the U.S. Treasury
regulations thereunder (“FATCA”), any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and any other jurisdiction implementing, or relating to, FATCA or any law, regulation or official guidance enacted or issued in any
jurisdiction with respect thereto; or 
 (h) any combination of the above items. 

In addition to the foregoing, the Company and the Guarantors will also pay and indemnify the Holders for any present or future stamp, issue,
registration, court or documentary Taxes, or any other excise or property Taxes, charges or similar levies (including penalties, interest and any other reasonable expenses related thereto) which are levied by any Taxing Jurisdiction on the
execution, delivery, issuance, registration or enforcement of, or the receipt of payments with respect to, any of the Securities, this Indenture, any Guarantee or any other document or instrument referred to therein (other than on or in connection
with a transfer of any Securities other than the initial resale of such Securities). 

  
 53 








 If the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be, becomes aware that it will be obligated to
pay Additional Amounts with respect to any payment under or with respect to any Securities or any Guarantee, each of the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be, will deliver to the Trustee on a date that is at least 30 days prior to
the date of that payment (unless the obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises less than 30 days prior to that payment date, in which case the Company or the relevant Guarantor shall notify the Trustee, in writing, promptly thereafter) an
Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount estimated to be so payable. The Officer’s Certificate(s) must also set forth any other information necessary to enable the paying agent to pay
such Additional Amounts to Holders on the relevant payment date. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely solely on such Officer’s Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary. The Company or the relevant Guarantor will also
provide the Trustee with documentation satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of Additional Amounts. 
 The Company or the
relevant Guarantor will make all withholdings and deductions required by law and will remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Tax authority in accordance with applicable law. The Company or the relevant Guarantor will use its
reasonable efforts to obtain Tax receipts from each Tax authority evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld. The Company or the relevant Guarantor will furnish to the Trustee, within a reasonable time after the date the payment of
any Taxes so deducted or withheld is made, certified copies of Tax receipts evidencing payment by the Company or a Guarantor, as the case may be, or if, notwithstanding such entity’s efforts to obtain receipts, receipts are not obtained, other
evidence of payments (satisfactory to the Trustee) by such entity. Upon reasonable request, copies of Tax receipts or other evidence of payments, as the case may be, will be made available by the Trustee to the Holders or beneficial owners of the
Securities. 
 Wherever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (and premium, if any), interest, if
any, or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Security or any Guarantee, such mention will be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would
be payable in respect thereof. 
 The above obligations will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture, any
transfer by a Holder or beneficial owner of its Securities, and will apply, mutatis mutandis, to any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Company or any Guarantor is incorporated, engaged in business or otherwise resident for tax
purposes or any jurisdiction from or through which such Person makes any payment on any Securities (or any Guarantee) and, in each case, any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein. 

ARTICLE XV 
 GUARANTEES 

Section 15.01. Guarantees. 

Each Guarantor hereby fully and unconditionally, and jointly and severally with each other Guarantor, guarantees (i) to each Holder of
each Security that is authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, and (ii) to the Trustee on behalf of such Holder, the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Security when and as the same shall
become due and payable, whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, in accordance with the terms of such Security and of this Indenture and such other Obligations under such Security and this Indenture. In case
of the failure of the Company punctually to make any such payment, each Guarantor hereby agrees to cause such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the stated maturity or by acceleration, call
for redemption or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Company. The Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree to pay, in addition to the amount stated above, any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
expenses) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under the Guarantees. 
 Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its
obligations hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, the validity, regularity or enforceability of such Security or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same or any release,
amendment, waiver or indulgence granted to the Company or such Guarantor or any consent to departure from any requirement of any other guarantee of all or 

  
 54 








 
any of the Securities or any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives the benefits of
diligence, presentment, demand for payment, any requirement that the Trustee or any of the Holders protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest in or other lien on any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action
against the Company or any other Person or any collateral, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest or notice with respect to such
Security or the indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged in respect of such Security except by complete performance of the obligations contained in such Security and in such
Guarantee. Each Guarantor agrees that if, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee or any of the Holders of the applicable series of Securities are prevented by applicable law from exercising their
respective rights to accelerate the maturity of such Securities, to collect interest on such Securities, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy with respect to such Securities, each Guarantor agrees to pay to the Trustee for the account
of such Holders, upon demand therefor, the amount that would otherwise have been due and payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be exercised by the Trustee or any of such Holders. 

The Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company for
liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any part of the Company’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of such Securities, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by
any Holder of such Securities, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is
rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, such Securities shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 

Any term or provision of the Guarantee to the contrary notwithstanding, the aggregate amount of the Obligations guaranteed hereunder shall be
reduced to the extent necessary to prevent such Guarantee from violating or becoming voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally. 

In case any provision of any Guarantee 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. Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any
kind or nature. 
 Section 15.02. Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of a Security, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the
Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar U.S. Federal or state or the U.K. Insolvency Act
of 1986 or any similar United Kingdom, England and Wales law or The Companies Act of 1981 (as amended), the Conveyancing Act 1983 (as amended) or such other similar Bermuda law or such other foreign law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To
effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other
contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the
Obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article XV, result in the Obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment
under its Guarantee shall be entitled upon payment in full of all guaranteed Obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based
on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP. 

  
 55 








 Section 15.03. Execution and Delivery. 

To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 15.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture (or an indenture
supplemental hereto) shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by any member of its Board of Directors, its chief executive officer, the president, the chief financial officer or any vice president. 

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 15.01 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding
the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on any Security. 
 If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no
longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless. 
 The delivery of
any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 

If required by this Indenture or in accordance with Section 2.01 pursuant to a Board Resolution, and as set forth in an Officer’s
Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental to this Indenture, Parent shall cause any Subsidiary required to become a Guarantor hereunder to comply with the provisions of this Article XV, to the extent applicable. 

Section 15.04. Subrogation. 

Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders of the Securities against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by any
Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 15.01 hereof; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such
right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Company under this Indenture or such series of Securities shall have been paid in full. 

Section 15.05. Benefits Acknowledged. 

Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture
and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.
