 (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument
or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing
acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the
execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee reasonably deems sufficient. 

  
 9 








 (c) The Company may, in the circumstances permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, fix any day as
the record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, or to vote on any action, authorized or permitted to be given or taken by
Holders. If not set by the Company prior to the first solicitation of a Holder of the applicable series of Securities made by any Person in respect of any such action, or, in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote, the record date for any
such action or vote shall be the 30th day (or, if later, the date of the most recent list of Holders required to be provided pursuant to Section 8.01) prior to such first solicitation or vote, as the case may be. With regard to any record date,
only the Holders of the requisite principal amount Outstanding Securities on such date (or their duly designated proxies) shall be entitled to give or take, or vote on, the relevant action. 

(d) The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Securities Register. 

(e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security of a series shall bind
every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every such Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or
the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. 
 Section 1.05. Notices,
Etc., to Trustee and Company. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with: 

(i) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or
filed in writing to or with the Trustee at: The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., 400 South Hope Street, Suite 400, Los Angeles, California 90017, Attention: Corporate Unit or 

(ii) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein
expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any other address previously furnished in
writing to the Trustee by the Company, Attention: Treasurer. 
 Notice to the Trustee shall be effective only upon actual receipt by the Trustee. 

Section 1.06. Notice to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at such Holder’s address as it appears in the Securities Register, not later than the
latest date (if any), and not 

  
 10 








 
earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in
any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive
such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action
taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall
be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 

Whenever under this Indenture the Trustee is required to provide any notice by mail, in all cases the Trustee may alternatively provide notice
by overnight courier or by telefacsimile, with confirmation of transmission. 
 So long as the Securities of a series are registered in the
name of the Depository Trust Company, any notices to be provided to the Holders of such series may be provided by electronic means in accordance with the Depository Trust Company’s operational procedures. 

The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail, facsimile
transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods from an authorized representative of the party providing such instructions or directions. If the party elects to give the Trustee e-mail (pdf) or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a
similar electronic method) and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses
arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The party providing electronic
instructions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk or
interception and misuse by third parties. 
 Section 1.07. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof limits,
qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act that is required hereunder to be a part of and govern this Indenture with respect to one or more series of Securities, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of this
Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded with respect to a series of Securities, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as
the case may be.

 Section 1.08. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section
headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof, and all Article and Section references are to Articles and Sections, respectively, of this Indenture unless otherwise expressly stated.

 Section 1.09. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its
successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. 
 Section 1.10. Severability Clause. In case any provision in this
Indenture or in the Securities of any series shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Indenture and such Securities shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby. 
 Section 1.11. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall
give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their respective successors hereunder and the Holders of Securities, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 

Section 1.12. Governing Law. This Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York. 
 Section 1.13. Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE
TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE INDENTURE, THE NOTES OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 3.02); 

  
 13

upon which Securities of the series may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company; 
 (h) the obligation, if any, of the
Company to redeem, purchase or repay Securities of the series at the option of a Holder thereof pursuant to any sinking fund or otherwise and the price or prices at which and the period or periods within which and the terms and conditions upon which
Securities of the series shall be redeemed, purchased or repaid, in whole or in part, pursuant to such obligation; 
 (i) if other than

 (v) any provision of the Securities that would determine payments on
the Securities by reference to an index or a formula;

(y) any and all other terms of the series (which terms shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture) including any terms
which may be required by or advisable under U.S. law or regulations or advisable in connection with the marketing of Securities in that series. 

All Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and except as may otherwise be set forth in an
Officer’s Certificate, or in any indenture supplemental hereto. The Company may, without the consent of the Holders, increase the principal amount of the Securities of any series by issuing additional Securities of the same series in the future
on the same terms and conditions as the Securities of such series, except for any differences in the issue price and, if applicable, the initial interest accrual date and interest payment date; provided that if the additional Securities are not
fungible with the Securities of such series for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional Securities will have one or more separate CUSIP numbers. Whether or not such additional Securities are so fungible, the Securities of any series and
any additional Securities of such series the Company may issue in the future will be treated as a single series for all other purposes under this Indenture, including for purposes of determining whether the required percentage of the Holders of
record of the Securities of such series has given approval or consent to an amendment or waiver or joined in directing the Trustee to take certain actions on behalf of all Holders of the Securities of such series. 

There shall be established in and set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto,
prior to the issuance of any additional Securities of any series: 

  
 15 








 (i) the aggregate principal amount of such additional Securities to be
authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture; 
 (ii) the issue price, the issue date and the CUSIP numbers, if
any, of such additional Securities and, to the extent applicable, the date from which interest shall accrue on, and the initial Interest Payment Date for, such additional Securities; and 

(iii) whether such additional Securities shall be transfer restricted Securities or have any registration or exchange rights.

 Section 2.04. Authentication and Delivery of Securities. At any time and from time to time after the execution and
delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a written order of the Company, signed in the name of the Company by any one of the following
officers: its Chairman of the Board of Directors, its Chief Executive Officer, its Chief Financial Officer, its President, its Treasurer or one of its Vice Presidents. The Trustee, in accordance with such written order, shall authenticate and
deliver such Securities. 
 In authenticating such Securities and accepting the additional responsibilities under the Indenture in relation
to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon: 

(a) a copy of one or more Board Resolutions, certified by the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Company, authorizing such series; 

(b) an executed supplemental indenture, if any; 

(c) in lieu of a supplemental indenture, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the form and terms of the Securities as required pursuant
to Section 2.01 and Section 2.03, respectively, and prepared in accordance with Section 1.02; and 
 (d) an Opinion of
Counsel, prepared in accordance with Section 1.02, to the effect that 
 (i) the form or forms and terms of such
Securities have been established by and set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, or by a supplemental indenture as permitted by Section 2.01 and Section 2.03 in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 

(ii) such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to
any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company entitled to the benefits of this Indenture, and enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except to the extent
that enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally, and general principles of equity
(regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 

  
 16 








 Section 2.05. Execution of Securities. The Securities shall be signed in the
name of the Company by any one of its Chairman of the Board of Directors, its Chief Executive Officer, its Chief Financial Officer, its President, its Treasurer or one of its Vice Presidents. Such signature may be the manual or facsimile signature
of the present or any future such officer. Typographical and other minor errors or defects in any such signature shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any Security that has been duly authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. 

In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Securities shall cease to be such officer before the Security so signed
shall be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by the Company, such Security nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the person who signed such Security had not ceased to be such officer of the
Company; and any Security may be signed on behalf of the Company by such person as, at the actual date of the execution of such Security, shall be the proper officer of the Company, although at the date of the execution and delivery of this
Indenture any such person was not such an officer. 
 Section 2.06. Certificate of Authentication. Only such Securities
as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form recited herein, executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the Trustee upon any Security executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that the Security so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the Holder is entitled
to the benefits of this Indenture. 
 Section 2.07. Denomination and Date of Securities; Payments of Interest. The
Securities shall be issuable as registered securities without coupons and in denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by Section 2.03. In the absence of any such specification with respect to the Securities of any series, the
Securities of such series shall be issuable in denominations of $2,000 in principal amount and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Securities shall be numbered, lettered, or otherwise distinguished in such manner or in accordance with such
plan as the officer of the Company executing the same may determine with the approval of the Trustee as evidenced by the execution and authentication thereof. 

  
 17 








 The principal of and the interest on the Securities of any series shall be payable in the coin or
currency of the United States of America that at the time is legal tender for public and private debt, at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose. 

Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication, shall bear interest, if any, from the date and shall be payable on the dates, in
each case, established as contemplated by Section 2.03. 
 Except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.03, the Person in
whose name any Security of any series is registered at the close of business on any record date applicable to a particular series with respect to any Interest Payment Date for such series shall be entitled to receive the interest, if any, payable on
such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding any transfer or exchange of such Security subsequent to the record date and prior to such Interest Payment Date, except if and to the extent the Company shall default in the payment of the interest due on
such Interest Payment Date for such series, in which case such defaulted interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names Outstanding Securities for such series are registered at the close of business on a subsequent record date (which shall be
not less than five Business Days prior to the date of payment of such defaulted interest) established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Company to the Holders not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date. The term
“record date” as used with respect to any Interest Payment Date (except a date for payment of defaulted interest) shall mean the date specified as such in the terms of the Securities of any particular series, or, if no such
date is so specified, if such Interest Payment Date is the first day of a calendar month, the fifteenth day of the next preceding calendar month or, if such Interest Payment Date is the fifteenth day of a calendar month, the first day of such
calendar month, whether or not such record date is a Business Day. 
 Section 2.08. Registration, Transfer and Exchange.
The Company may appoint one or more Securities Registrars; provided that there shall not be more than one Securities Registrar at any given time. The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Securities Registrar. The Company will keep or
cause to be kept at one of the offices or agencies to be maintained for the purpose as provided in Section 3.02 a register (the “Securities Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it
will register, and will register the transfer of, Securities as in this Article provided. The Securities Register shall be in written form in the English language or in any other form capable of being converted into such form within a reasonable
time. At all reasonable times the Securities Register shall be open for inspection by the Trustee. 
 Upon due presentation for registration
of transfer of any Security of any series at any such office or agency to be maintained for the purpose as provided in Section 3.02, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in the name of the transferee or
transferees a new Security or Securities of the same series in authorized denominations for a like aggregate principal amount. 

  
 18 








 Any Security or Securities of any series may be exchanged for a Security or Securities of the
same series in other authorized denominations, in an equal aggregate principal amount. Securities of any series to be exchanged shall be surrendered at any office or agency to be maintained by the Company for the purpose as provided in
Section 3.02, and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor the Security or Securities of the same series which the Holder making the exchange shall be entitled to receive, bearing numbers not
contemporaneously Outstanding. 
 All Securities presented for registration of transfer, exchange, redemption or payment shall (if so
required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder or his attorney duly authorized in
writing, together with signature guarantees for such Holder or attorney. 
 The Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any exchange or registration of transfer of Securities. No service charge shall be made for any such transaction. 

Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be required to exchange or register a transfer of (a) any Securities of any series for a period
of 15 days preceding the first mailing of notice of redemption of Securities of such series to be redeemed, or (b) any Securities selected, called or being called for redemption except, in the case of any Security where public notice has been
given that such Security is to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not so to be redeemed. 
 In addition to the transfer requirements
provided in this Section 2.08, any Security or Securities will be subject to such further transfer restrictions as may be contained in an Officer’s Certificate or indenture supplemental hereto applicable to such series of Securities. 

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 (including any transfers between or among Agent Members or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Security or definitive Security) 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. 
 All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be
valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under the Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. 

  
 19 








 Section 2.09. Mutilated, Defaced, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. In
case any temporary or definitive Security shall become mutilated, defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company in its discretion may execute, and upon the receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Security
of the same series, bearing a number not contemporaneously Outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated or defaced Security, or in lieu of and substitution for the Security so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for
a substitute Security shall furnish to the Company and to the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to indemnify and defend and to save each of them harmless and, in every case of
destruction, loss or theft, evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Security and of the ownership thereof. 

Upon the issuance of any substitute Security, the Company or the Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. In case any Security, which has matured or is about to mature or has been called for redemption
in full or has otherwise become or is about to become due and payable, shall become mutilated or defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may instead of issuing a substitute Security, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without
surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated or defaced Security), if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Company and to the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee such security or indemnity as any of them may
require 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 and any agent of the Company or the Trustee evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of such Security and of the ownership thereof. 
 Every substitute Security of any series issued pursuant to the provisions of
this section by virtue of the fact that any such Security is destroyed, lost or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by
anyone and shall be entitled to all the benefits of (but shall be subject to all the limitations of rights set forth in) this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of such series duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. All Securities shall be held and owned upon the express condition that, to the extent permitted by law, the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, defaced or destroyed, lost or stolen
Securities and shall preclude 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. 

  
 20 








 Section 2.10. Cancellation of Securities; Destruction Thereof. All Securities
surrendered for payment, redemption, cancellation, registration of transfer or exchange, or for credit against any payment in respect of a sinking or analogous fund, if surrendered to the Company or any agent of the Company or the Trustee, 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 permitted by any of the provisions of the Indenture. On written request of
the Company at the time of such surrender, the Trustee shall deliver to the Company the Securities cancelled by the Trustee. In the absence of such request, the Trustee shall dispose of cancelled Securities held by it in accordance with its
customary procedures and deliver a certificate of disposition to the Company. If the Company shall acquire any of the Securities, 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 2.11. Temporary Securities. Pending the
preparation of definitive Securities for any series, the Company may execute and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver temporary Securities for such series (printed, lithographed, typewritten or otherwise
reproduced, in each case in form satisfactory to the Trustee). Temporary Securities of any series shall be issuable as registered Securities without coupons, of any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the definitive Securities
of such series but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Securities, all as may be determined by the Company with the concurrence of the Trustee. Temporary Securities may contain such reference to any
provisions of the Indenture as may be appropriate. Every temporary Security 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. Without unreasonable delay the Company shall execute and shall furnish definitive Securities of such series and thereupon temporary Securities of such series may be surrendered in exchange therefor without charge at each office or agency
to be maintained by the Company for that purpose pursuant to Section 3.02, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Securities of such series a like aggregate principal amount of
definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall be entitled to the same benefits under the Indenture as definitive Securities of such series. 

Section 2.12. 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. Said Authenticating Agent shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon
exchange, transfer or partial redemption thereof, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and shall be valid and binding for all purposes as if authenticated


  
 21 








 
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 at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time
(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 2.13.
Global Securities. If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 2.03 that the Securities of a particular series are to be issued as a Global Security, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with
Section 2.04, authenticate and deliver, a Global Security that shall (i) represent, and be issued in a denomination or aggregate denominations equal to the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities to be represented by a Global
Security, (ii) be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, (iii) be delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary or pursuant to the Depositary’s instruction and (iv) bear a legend substantially to the following
effect: “Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.13 of the Indenture, this Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only to the Depositary, to another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor Depositary or to a nominee
of such successor Depositary.” 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.08, the Global Security of a series may be
transferred, in whole but not in part and in the manner provided in Section 2.08, only to the Depositary for such series, to another nominee of the Depositary for such series or to a successor Depositary for such series selected or approved by
the Company or to a nominee of such successor Depositary. 
 Ownership of beneficial interests in a registered Global Security will be
limited to Agent Members that have accounts with the Depositary or Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members. Upon the issuance of a registered Global Security, the Depositary will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer
system, the Agent Members’ accounts with the respective principal or face amounts of the Securities beneficially owned by the Agent Members. Any 

  
 22 








 
dealers, underwriters, initial purchasers or agents participating in the distribution of the Securities will designate the accounts to be credited. Ownership of beneficial interests in a
registered Global Security will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary, with respect to interests of Agent Members, and on the records of Agent Members, with respect
to interests of Persons holding through Agent Members. 
 So long as the Depositary, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a registered
Global Security, that Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or Holder of the Securities represented by the registered Global Security for all purposes under the Indenture. Except as described in this
Section 2.13, owners of beneficial interests in a registered Global Security will not be entitled to have the Securities represented by the registered Global Security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive
physical delivery of the Securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or Holders of the Securities under the Indenture. Accordingly, each Person owning a beneficial interest in a registered Global Security must rely on the
procedures of the Depositary for that registered Global Security and, if that Person is not an Agent Member, on the procedures of the Agent Member through which the Person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a Holder under the Indenture.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositary or its nominee may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person (including any Agent Member and any Person that holds a beneficial interest in a Global Security through an Agent Member) to take any
action which a Holder is entitled to take under the Indenture or the Securities, and nothing herein will impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder
of any Security. 
 Principal and interest payments on Securities represented by a Global Security registered in the name of the Depositary
or its nominee will be made to the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the registered Global Security. None of the Company, the Trustee or any other agent of the Company, or any agent of the Trustee will have
any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the registered Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to those
beneficial ownership interests. 
 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, as the case may be, this Section 2.13 shall no longer be applicable to the Securities of such series and the
Company will execute, and subject to Section 

  
 23 








 
2.08, the Trustee will authenticate and deliver the Securities of such series in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount
equal to the principal amount of the Global Security of such series in exchange for such Global Security. In addition, the Company may, subject to the procedures of the Depositary, at any time determine that the Securities of any series shall no
longer be represented by a Global Security and that the provisions of this Section 2.13 shall no longer apply to the Securities of such series. In such event the Company will execute and subject to Section 2.08, the Trustee, upon receipt
of an Officer’s Certificate evidencing such determination by the Company, will authenticate and deliver the Securities of such series in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security of such series in exchange for such Global Security. Upon the exchange of the Global Security for such Securities in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations,
the Global Security shall be cancelled by the Trustee. Such Securities in definitive registered form issued in exchange for the Global Security pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations
as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect Agent Members or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee in writing. The Company and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such instructions from the Depositary
and shall incur no liability to any Person for any losses or damages arising as a result of any delay in receiving such instructions. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Depositary for delivery to the Persons in whose names such
Securities are so registered. 
 Section 2.14. Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The provisions of the
“Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream shall be applicable to
transfers of beneficial interests in any Global Security held by Agent Members through Euroclear and Clearstream. 

Section 2.15. CUSIP Numbers. In issuing the Securities, the Company may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in
use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on
the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such
numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

 ARTICLE 3 

COVENANTS 

Section 3.01. Payments of Principal and Interest. (a) The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series
of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of, and interest on, each of the Securities of such series at the place or places, at the respective times and in the manner provided in such Securities. The
Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal on each series of Securities at the rate specified therefor in the terms of such series of Securities to the extent lawful;
it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) at the same rate to the extent lawful. Unless otherwise provided
in the Securities of any series, not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the due date of any principal of or interest on any Securities, the Company will deposit with the paying agent moneys in immediately available funds sufficient to pay
such amounts, provided that if the Company or any affiliate of the Company is acting as paying agent, it will, on or before each due date, segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders a sum of money sufficient to pay
such amounts until paid to such Holders or otherwise disposed of as provided in this Indenture. In each case, unless the paying agent is the Trustee, the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its compliance with this paragraph or any failure
to take an action as required by this paragraph. 
 (b) An installment of principal or interest will be considered paid on the date due if
the Trustee (or paying agent, other than the Company or any affiliate of the Company) holds on that date money designated for and sufficient to pay the installment. If the Company or any affiliate of the Company acts as paying agent, an installment
of principal or interest will be considered paid on the due date only if paid to the Holders. 
 (c) Payments in respect of the Securities
represented by the Global Security are to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holder of the Global Security. Except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.03, with respect to any
definitive Security, the Company will make all payments (i) to any Holder of less than $2,000,000 aggregate principal amount by check mailed to such Holder at its address as it appears in the Securities Register or (ii) to any Holder of in
excess of $2,000,000 aggregate principal amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by such Holder to the paying agent at least 15 days prior to the applicable date for such payment (or such lesser aggregate
principal amount or shorter period as may be satisfactory to the Company). 

  
 25 








 Section 3.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. So long as any of the Securities
remain Outstanding, the Company shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, for each series then Outstanding, 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 served. The Company will give to the Trustee written
notice of the location of any such office or agency and of any change of location thereof. Unless otherwise specified in accordance with Section 2.03, the Company hereby initially designates a corporate trust office of the Trustee, located at
101 Barclay Street, New York, New York 10286, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency as the agency to be
maintained by it for each such purpose. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be
made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. All notices to the Trustee shall be delivered to the Trustee at
its Corporate Trust Office in Los Angeles, California. 
 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or
agencies (in or outside the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York) where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no
such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, for such purposes. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the
Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 

Section 3.03. Paying Agents. Whenever the Company shall appoint a paying agent other than the Trustee with respect to the
Securities of any series, it will cause such paying agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Company and the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 3.03, 

(a) that it will hold all sums received by it as such agent for the payment of the principal of or interest on the Securities of such series
(whether such sums have been paid to it by the Company or by any other obligor on the Securities of such series) in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such series or of the Trustee, 

(b) that it will give the Trustee notice of any failure by the Company (or by any other obligor on the Securities of such series) to make any
payment of the principal of or interest on the Securities of such series when the same shall be due and payable, 

  
 26 








 (c) that it will pay any such sums so held in trust by it to the Trustee upon the Trustee’s
written request at any time during the continuance of the failure referred to in Section 3.03(b) above, and 
 (d) that it will perform
all other duties of paying agent as set forth in this Indenture. 
 Anything in this Section 3.03 to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge with respect to one or more or all series of Securities hereunder, or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee all sums held in trust for any such
series by the Company or any paying agent hereunder, as required by this Section 3.03, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained. 

Anything in this Section 3.03 to the contrary notwithstanding, the agreement to hold sums in trust as provided in this section is subject
to the provisions of Section 9.05 and Section 9.06. 
 Section 3.04. Statement by Officers as to Default. The
Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof, an Officer’s Certificate which shall comply with the provisions of Section 314 of the Trust Indenture Act,
stating whether or not to the knowledge of the signers thereof any Default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided
hereunder) occurred during the previous fiscal year, specifying all such Defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge. 

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in any event within 30 days after the Company becomes aware of the
occurrence of any Event of Default or an event which, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the details of such Event of Default or default and the action which
the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
 Section 3.05. Existence. Subject to Article 4, the
Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any
such right or franchise if the Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the
Holders. 

  
 27 








 Section 3.06. Reports and Delivery of Certain Information. To the extent
required by the rules and regulations of the Commission, so long as any Securities are outstanding, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee within 15 days after the same is filed with the Commission (i) all quarterly and annual financial
information that is substantially equivalent to that which would be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Company were required to file such Forms, including a “Management’s Discussion and

“furnished” to the Trustee for purposes of this Section 3.06. 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 3.07. Book-Entry System. If the Securities of any series that are issued as
Global Securities cease to trade in the Depositary’s book-entry settlement system, the Company covenants and agrees that it shall use reasonable efforts to make such other book-entry arrangements that it determines are reasonable for such
Securities. 
 Section 3.08. Information for IRS Filings. The Company shall provide to the Trustee on a timely basis such
information (i) as the Trustee requires to enable the Trustee to prepare and file any form required to be submitted by the Company with the Internal Revenue Service and (ii) in connection with such filing as the Trustee may request (and is
reasonably available to the Company) in order for the Trustee to determine whether it has any tax related obligations under applicable law. In connection herewith, the Trustee shall be entitled to make any withholding or other payment to the extent
necessary to comply with applicable law, for which the Trustee shall have no liability. 
 Section 3.09. Limitation on
Liens. (a) With respect to the Securities of each series, the Company covenants that neither the Company nor any Wholly Owned Subsidiary will create or incur any Lien on any Principal Property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in
order to secure Indebtedness, without effectively providing that the Securities of such series shall be equally and ratably secured until such time as such Indebtedness is no longer secured by such Lien, except: 

(i) Liens existing as of the date of initial issuance of the Securities of such series; 

(ii) Liens granted after the date of initial issuance of the Securities of such series created in favor of the holders of the

(v) Permitted Liens. 

(b) Notwithstanding Section 3.09(a), the Company may, without equally and ratably securing the Securities of any series, create or incur
Liens which would otherwise be subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 3.09(a) if, after giving effect thereto, Aggregate Debt does not exceed the greater of (i) 15% of Consolidated Net Worth calculated as of the date of the
creation or incurrence of the Lien or (ii) 15% of Consolidated Net Worth calculated as of the date of the initial issuance of the Securities of such series. 

Section 3.10. Limitation on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions. (a) With respect to the Securities of each
series, the Company covenants that neither the Company nor any Wholly Owned Subsidiary will enter into any sale and lease-back transaction for the sale and leasing back of any Principal Property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, unless:

(ii) such transaction was for the sale and leasing back to the Company of any Principal Property by one of its Subsidiaries;

 (iii) such transaction involves a lease for not more than three years (or which may be terminated by the Company within a

amount to such retirement, the Company may deliver debt securities to the Trustee for cancellation, such debt securities to be credited at the cost thereof to the Company. 

(b) Notwithstanding Section 3.10(a), the Company and any Wholly Owned Subsidiary may enter into any sale lease-back transaction which
would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions if after giving effect thereto and at the time of determination, Aggregate Debt does not exceed the greater of (i) 15% of Consolidated Net Worth calculated as of the closing date of the

 ARTICLE 5 

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES AND SINKING FUND
PROVISIONS 
 Section 5.01. Applicability of Article. The provisions of this Article shall
be applicable to the Securities of any series which are redeemable before their maturity or to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03 for Securities of such
series. 
 Section 5.02. Notice of Redemption; Partial Redemptions. Notice of redemption to the Holders of Securities of
any series to be redeemed as a whole or in part at the option of the Company or otherwise shall be given by mailing notice of such redemption by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to such Holders of such series at their last addresses as they shall
appear upon the Securities Register or, in the case of Securities of such series represented by a Global Security, in accordance with the applicable procedures and requirements of the Depositary, in each case at least 30 days but not more than 60
days prior to the date fixed for redemption unless another redemption notice period shall be established with respect to the Securities of a series as contemplated by Section 2.03. Any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall
be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives the notice. Failure to give notice by mail, or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Security of a series designated for redemption as a whole or in part
shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Security of such series. 

  
 33 








 The notice of redemption to each such Holder shall identify the Securities to be redeemed
(including CUSIP numbers, if available) and shall specify the principal amount of each Security of such series held by such Holder to be redeemed, the date fixed for redemption, the redemption price (or if not then ascertainable, the manner of
calculation thereby), the place or places of payment, that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Securities, that such redemption is pursuant to the mandatory or optional sinking fund, or both, if such be the case, that
interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in such notice and that unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after said date interest will cease to accrue thereon or on the portions
thereof called for redemption. In case any Security of a series is to be redeemed in part only the notice of redemption shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and shall state that on and after the date fixed for
redemption, 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. 

The notice of redemption of Securities of any series to be redeemed shall be prepared and given by the Company or, at the Company’s
request, prepared by the Company and given by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. 
 In case of any redemption at the
election of the Company or in the case of a mandatory redemption (other than a mandatory redemption scheduled to occur on fixed dates), the Company shall, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice
shall be satisfactory to the Trustee or unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.03), notify the Trustee of such redemption date, of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and of the provision of the Securities
of such series pursuant to which the redemption is to be made. In the case of any redemption of Securities, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction or condition. 

If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Securities to be redeemed shall be selected by lot by the Depositary in
the case of Securities represented by a Global Security, or, in the case of Securities not represented by a Global Security, the Trustee shall select, by lot or in such manner as it shall deem appropriate and fair, Securities of such series to be
redeemed in whole or in part. Securities may be redeemed in part in multiples equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of such series or any multiple thereof. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the
Securities of such series selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities of such series selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise
requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities of any series shall relate, in the case of any Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Security which has been or is to be
redeemed. 

  
 34 








 Not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the redemption date specified in the notice of
redemption given as provided in this Section, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with one or more paying agents (or, if the Company is acting as its own paying agent, set aside, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 3.03)
an amount of money sufficient to redeem on the redemption date all the Securities of such series so called for redemption at the appropriate redemption price, together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption. 

Section 5.03. Payment of Securities Called for Redemption. If notice of redemption has been given as above provided, the
Securities or portions of Securities 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, and on
and after said date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of such Securities at the redemption price, together with interest accrued to said date) interest on the Securities or portions of Securities so called for redemption shall cease
to accrue and such Securities shall cease from and after the date fixed for redemption to be entitled to any benefit or security under this Indenture, and the Holders thereof shall have no right in respect of such Securities except the right to
receive the redemption price thereof and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption. On presentation and surrender of such Securities at a place of payment specified in said notice, said Securities or the specified portions thereof shall be
paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable redemption price, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption; provided that any payment of interest becoming due on or before the date fixed for redemption shall be
payable to the Holders of such Securities registered as such on the relevant record date. 
 If any Security called for redemption shall not
be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal shall, until paid or duly provided for, bear interest from the date fixed for redemption at the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of an Original Issue Discount
Security) borne by the Security. 
 Upon presentation of any Security redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver to or on the order of the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities of such series, of authorized denominations, in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security so
presented. 
 Section 5.04. Exclusion of Certain Securities from Eligibility for Selection for Redemption. Securities shall be
excluded from eligibility for selection for redemption if they are identified by registration and certificate number in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee at least 15 days prior to the last date on which notice of redemption may
be given as being owned of record and beneficially by, and not pledged or hypothecated by either (a) the Company or (b) an entity specifically identified in such written statement directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or
under direct or indirect common control with the Company.

order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

such series when the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period of 30 days; 
 (b) default in the payment of the
principal on any of the Securities of such series when the same becomes due and payable, either at maturity, upon redemption, required repurchase or otherwise; 

(c) default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or condition of the Company in this Indenture in respect of the Securities such
series or the applicable series of Securities (other than a default specified in paragraph (a) or (b)), and such default continues for a period of 60 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the
Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all affected series (voting together as a single class) a written notice specifying such default and requiring it
to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; 
 (d) the entry by a court having
jurisdiction in the premises of (i) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or (ii) a decree
or order adjudging the Company as bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company under any applicable Federal or State law or
(iii) appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the
continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or 

  
 36 








 (e) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable
Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in
an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a
petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable Federal or State law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator,
assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its
debts generally as they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Company in furtherance of any such action. 

Section 6.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. (a) If an Event of Default (other than those
specified in 6.01(d) and 6.01(e)) with respect to one or more series of Securities occurs and is continuing, then, and in each and every such case, unless the principal of all of the Securities of such series shall have already become due and
payable, the Trustee may, and at the direction of the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all affected series then Outstanding (voting together as a single class) by notice in writing to the Company, shall
declare the entire principal (or, if the Securities of such series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such series) of all Outstanding Securities of each such series,
together with all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become immediately due and payable. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(d) or 6.01(e), the entire principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will ipso facto become due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. 

After a declaration of acceleration under Section 6.01(a), Section 6.01(b) or Section 6.01(c) or any automatic acceleration
under Sections 6.01(d) or 6.01(e), the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series (each such series voting as a separate class) may rescind such acceleration with respect to the Securities of such series
(x) if all existing Events of Default with respect to the Securities of such series, except for nonpayment of the principal and interest on the Securities of such series that have become due solely as a result of such acceleration, have been
cured or waived, (y) if rescission of acceleration would not conflict with any judgment or decree and (z) if all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee in connection with any such Event of Default (including the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements, and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel, but excluding any such sums paid or advanced by the Trustee as a result of negligence or bad faith) have been paid. 

  
 37 








 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all affected
series (voting together as a single class) may, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, also waive past defaults, except a default in the payment of principal of or interest on any Outstanding Security, or in respect of a covenant or a
provision that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of all affected Holders. 
 For all purposes under this Indenture, if a
portion of the principal of any Original Issue Discount Securities shall have been accelerated and declared or become due and payable pursuant to the provisions hereof, then, from and after such acceleration or declaration, unless such declaration
has been rescinded and annulled, the principal amount of such Original Issue Discount Securities shall be deemed, for all purposes hereunder, to be such portion of the principal thereof as shall be due and payable as a result of such acceleration,
and payment of such portion of the principal thereof as shall be due and payable as a result of such acceleration, together with interest, if any, thereon and all other amounts owing thereunder, shall constitute payment in full of such Original
Issue Discount Securities. 
 Section 6.03. Collection of Indebtedness; Trustee May Prove Debt. The Company covenants
that (a) in case default shall be made in the payment of any installment of interest on any of the Securities of any series when such interest shall have become due and payable, and such default shall have continued for a period of 30 days or
(b) in case default shall be made in the payment of all or any part of the principal of any of the Securities of any series when the same shall have become due and payable, whether upon maturity of the Securities of such series or upon any
redemption or by 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 such series the whole amount that then shall have become due and payable on all
Securities of such series for principal or interest, as the case may be (with interest to the date of such payment upon the overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, on overdue
installments of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) specified in the Securities of such series); and in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be
sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and any expenses and liabilities incurred by the Trustee and
each predecessor Trustee except as a result of its negligence or bad faith. 
 Until such demand is made by the Trustee, the Company may pay
the principal of and interest on the Securities of any series to the Holders, whether or not the principal of and interest on the Securities of such series be overdue. 

  
 38 








 In case the Company shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts 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 sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceedings to
judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company or other obligor upon such Securities and collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or other obligor upon such Securities,
wherever situated, the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable. 
 In case there shall be pending proceedings relative to the Company or
any other obligor upon the Securities of any series under Bankruptcy Law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of
the Company or its property or such other obligor, or in case of any other comparable judicial proceedings relative to the Company or other obligor upon the Securities of any series, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other
obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of any Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the
provisions of this Section, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise: 
 (a) to file and prove a
claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest (or, if the Securities of any series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such series) owing and unpaid in
respect of the Securities of any series, and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor
Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) and of
the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company or other obligor upon the Securities of any series, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, 

(b) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Holders of the Securities of any series in any election of a
trustee or a standby trustee in arrangement, reorganization, liquidation or other bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or Person performing similar functions in comparable proceedings, and 

(c) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute all amounts received with
respect to the claims of the Holders and of the Trustee on their behalf; and any trustee, receiver, or liquidator, custodian or other similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Holders to make payments to the Trustee, and, in the event
that the 

  
 39 








 
Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee, each
predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith and all other
amounts due to the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee pursuant to Section 7.07. 
 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to
authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan or reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities of any series or the rights of any Holder thereof, or
to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person. 

All rights of action and of asserting claims under the Indenture, or under any of the Securities of any series, may be enforced by the Trustee
without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any trial or other proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or proceedings instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express
trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the reasonable expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the
Holders of the Securities in respect of which such action was taken. 
 In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and also any proceedings
involving the interpretation of any provision of the Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party) the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Securities in respect to which such action was taken, and it shall not be necessary
to make any Holders of such Securities parties to any such proceedings. 
 Section 6.04. Application of Money Collected.
Any moneys collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6 in respect of the Securities of any series shall be applied in the following order at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such moneys on account of
principal or interest, upon presentation of the several Securities in respect of which moneys have been collected and stamping (or otherwise noting) thereon the payment, or issuing Securities of such series in reduced principal amounts in exchange
for the presented Securities of like series if only partially paid, or upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of all
amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07; and 

  
 40 








 SECOND: In case the principal of the Securities of such series in respect of which moneys have
been collected shall not have become and be then due and payable, to the payment of interest on the Securities of such series in default in the order of the maturity of the installments of such interest, with interest (to the extent that such
interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon the overdue installments of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) specified in such Securities, such payments to be
made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto, without discrimination or preference; 
 THIRD: In case the principal of the Securities of such
series in respect of which moneys have been collected shall have become and shall be then due and payable, to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon all the Securities of such series for principal and interest, with interest upon
the overdue principal, and (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon overdue installments of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities)
specified in the Securities of such series; and in case such moneys shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amount so due and unpaid upon the Securities of such series, then to the payment of such principal and interest or Yield to Maturity,
without preference or priority of principal over interest or Yield to Maturity, or of interest or Yield to Maturity over principal, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Security of such series over any
other Security of such series, ratably to the aggregate of such principal and accrued and unpaid interest or Yield to Maturity; and 

FOURTH: To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company or any other Person lawfully entitled thereto. 

Section 6.05. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding,
judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder (other than in the case of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(b)), unless: 

(i) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default; 

(ii) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the affected Securities then Outstanding shall have made
written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 

(iii) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or
expense to be incurred in compliance with such request; 

  
 41 








 (iv) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer
of security or indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 
 (v) no direction, in the opinion of the Trustee,
inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the affected Securities then Outstanding; 

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of any Securities of any series shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by
availing itself of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other such Holder or to enforce any right under this Indenture,
except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders of the applicable series. 

Section 6.06. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the
right of any Holder of any Security to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such Security on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Security, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or
after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected adversely without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 6.07.
Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined
adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and
thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 

Section 6.08. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.09 or Section 6.05 , no right
or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other
right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or
remedy. 

  
 42 








 Section 6.09. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or
of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by
this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 

Section 6.10. Control by Holders. Subject to Section 7.03(e), the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the Securities of all affected series (voting together as a single class) at the time Outstanding shall have the right to direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any
trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of each such series by the Indenture; provided, however, that such direction shall not be otherwise than in accordance with law and the provisions of this
Indenture. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall determine that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully
be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that the action or proceedings so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability or if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that the actions or forbearances specified in or
pursuant to such direction would be unduly prejudicial to the interests of Holders of the Securities of all series so affected not joining in the giving of said direction, it being understood that (subject to Section 7.01) the Trustee shall
have no duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders. 
 Section 6.11.
Waiver of Past Defaults. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.01, Section 6.06 and Section 10.02, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities affected may, by notice to the
Trustee, waive an existing default and its consequences on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities with respect to which such default has occurred and is continuing. 

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for
every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 6.12. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any
suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, in either case in respect of the applicable series of Securities, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and
the court may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, against any party litigant in the suit having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant; but the provisions of this
Section 6.12 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Company, to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities or to a suit instituted by a Holder to enforce payment of principal of or interest on any Security on the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Security. 

  
 43 








 Section 6.13. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Company covenants (to the
extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which
may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the
execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.07 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture. To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to
pay principal of, and interest on, particular Securities. Such lien shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after a Default or
an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(d) and 6.01(e) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any
Bankruptcy Law. 
 In no event shall the Trustee be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind
whatsoever, including, but not limited to, lost profits, even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 

In no event shall the Trustee be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder because of circumstances
beyond its control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, government action, including any laws, ordinances, regulations, governmental action or the like which
delays, restricts or prohibits the providing of services contemplated by this Indenture. 
 Section 7.08. Disqualification;
Conflicting Interests. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject
to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. To the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a trustee under the Indenture with respect to
Securities of more than one series. 

  
 48 








 Section 7.09. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There shall at all
times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and has, or whose parent banking company has, a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such Person publishes
reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 7.09, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its
combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.09, it shall resign immediately in the
manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article 7. 
 Section 7.10. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of
Successor.  
 (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article 7
shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 7.11. 
 (b) The Trustee may resign
with respect to one or more series of Securities at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company. 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 resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction at the expense of the Trustee for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

(c) The Trustee may be removed with respect to a series of Securities at any time by Act of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Securities of such series at the time Outstanding, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the 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 such series of Securities. 

(d) If at any time: 

(i) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 7.08 with respect to any series of Securities after written request
therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security or Securities of such series for at least six months, or 

(ii) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 7.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by
the Company or by any such Holder, or 
 (iii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting with respect to any series of
Securities or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or 
 (iv) a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be
appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, 

  
 49 








 then, in any such case, (A) the Company by a Company Order may remove the Trustee with respect to the
applicable series of Securities, or (B) subject to Section 6.12, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security or Securities of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of such Holder and all others similarly situated,
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to such series. 

(e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause
with respect to a series of Securities, the Company, by a Company Order, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee with respect to such series. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy,
a successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series at the time Outstanding delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed
shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee and supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company with respect to such series. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Company or
the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security or Securities of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated,
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to such series. 
 (f) The Company shall
give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Holders of the relevant series of Securities in the manner provided in Section 1.06. Each notice shall include the name of the
successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 
 Section 7.11. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.
Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee with
respect to all or any applicable series 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 predecessor Trustee with respect to
such series; but, on request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such predecessor Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the
predecessor Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such predecessor Trustee hereunder. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all
instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts. 

  
 50 








 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 7. 
 If a successor Trustee is appointed with respect to the
Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the predecessor Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any applicable series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto prepared by and at the
expense of the Company which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the predecessor Trustee
with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and
duties of the predecessor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series as to which the predecessor Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the predecessor Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of
this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such trustees
co-trustees of the same trust and that each such trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee. 

Section 7.12. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be
merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust
business of the Trustee by sale or otherwise, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article 7, without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities of any series 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 such Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities. 

Section 7.13. Preferential Collection of Claims. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or
any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor).

TRUSTEE 
 Section 8.01. Company to Furnish Trustee Names and Addresses of Holders. The

reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Holders; and 
 (ii) at such other times as the Trustee may request 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;

(b) The rights of Holders to communicate with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Securities, and the
corresponding rights and duties of the Trustee, shall be as provided by the Trust Indenture Act. 
 (c) Every Holder of Securities, by
receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of either of them shall be held accountable by reason of any disclosure of information as to names and addresses of
Holders made pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act. 
 Section 8.03. Reports by Trustee. (a) The Trustee shall
transmit to Holders such reports concerning the Trustee and its actions under this Indenture as may be required pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act at the times and in the manner provided pursuant thereto. Reports so required to be transmitted at

 52 








 Section 8.04. Reports by Company. The Company shall file with the Trustee and
the Commission, and transmit to Holders, such information, documents and other reports, and such summaries thereof, as may be required pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act at the times and in the manner provided pursuant to such Act. In the event the
Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it shall file with the Trustee upon request the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 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). It is expressly understood that materials transmitted electronically by the Company to the
Trustee shall be deemed filed with the Trustee for purposes of this Section 8.04. 
 ARTICLE 9 

DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE 

Section 9.01. Defeasance and Discharge of Indenture. The Company may terminate its obligations under the Indenture with
respect to the Securities of any series when: 
 (a) either

 (b) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that, as a result of an IRS ruling or a change in applicable
federal income tax law, the holders of the Securities of that series will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, defeasance and discharge to be effected and will be subject to the same federal income
tax as would be the case if the deposit, defeasance and discharge did not occur; 
 (c) no Default with respect to the Outstanding Securities
of that series has occurred and is continuing at the time of such deposit after giving effect to the deposit or, in the case of legal defeasance, no default relating to bankruptcy or insolvency has occurred and is continuing at any time on or before

 (d)
the defeasance will not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, assuming all Securities of such series were in default within the meaning of such Act; 

(e) the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or instrument to which the
Company is a party or by which it is bound; 
 (f) the defeasance will not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an

(g) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, in each case stating that all conditions
precedent provided for herein relating to the defeasance have been complied with. 
 Prior to the end of the 91-day period, none of the
Company’s obligations under the Indenture will be discharged. Thereafter, the Trustee upon request will acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Company’s obligations under such Securities and the Indenture with respect to such
Securities except for the surviving obligations specified above. 

  
 55

defeasance did not occur. 
 Except as specifically stated above, none of the Company’s obligations under the Indenture will be
discharged. 
 Section 9.04. Application by Trustee of Funds Deposited for Payment of Securities. Subject to
Section 9.06, all moneys and Governmental Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.01 or Section 9.02 with respect to the Securities of a series shall be held in trust and applied
by it to the payment, either directly or through any paying agent (including the Company acting as its own paying agent), to the Holders of the particular Securities of such series for the payment or redemption of which such moneys or Governmental
Obligations have been deposited with the Trustee, of all sums due and to become due thereon for principal and interest. Such moneys and Governmental Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required by law. 
 Section 9.05. Repayment of Moneys Held by Paying Agent. In connection with the satisfaction
and discharge of the Indenture with respect to Securities of any series, all moneys or Governmental Obligations then held by any paying agent under the provisions of the Indenture with respect to such series of Securities shall, upon demand of the
Company, be repaid to the Company or paid to the Trustee and thereupon such paying agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such moneys or Governmental Obligations.

deposited with or paid to the Trustee or any paying agent for the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security of any series and not applied but remaining unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such principal or interest shall
have become due and payable, shall, upon the written request of the Company and unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property law, be repaid to the Company by the Trustee for such series
or such paying agent, and the Holder of the Security of such series shall, unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property laws, thereafter look only to the Company for any payment which
such Holder may be entitled to collect, and all liability of the Trustee or any paying agent with respect to such moneys or Governmental Obligations shall thereupon cease.

consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series affected by such amendment or supplemental indenture (voting together as a single class), by Act of said Holders delivered to the

supplemental indenture if the 

  
 59

Securities of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for the
