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

substantially in the form hereinbefore recited and 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

delivered hereunder and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

the foregoing, if any Security shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, the Company shall deliver such
Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 2.10 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 11.05 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion
of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of the Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered
hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

SECTION 2.07.Denomination and Date of Securities; Payments of Interest. The Securities shall be issuable 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, Securities shall be issuable in denominations of

otherwise distinguished in such manner or in accordance with such plan as the officers of the Company executing
the same may determine with the approval of the Trustee as evidenced by the execution and authentication thereof.

Each
Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

Unless
otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 2.03, interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any interest payment date
shall be paid to the person in whose name that Security (or one or more predecessor securities) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for the payment of such interest.

The
term "record date" as used with respect to any interest payment date (except for 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, the close of business on the fifteenth day preceding such interest payment date, whether or not such record date is a

interest on any Security of any Series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any interest payment date (called "defaulted interest" for purposes of
this Section)

9

---

shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Registered Holder on the relevant record date by virtue of his having been such Holder; and such defaulted interest may be paid by the Company, at its
election in each case, as provided in clause (a) or clause (b) below:

(a) The
Company may elect to make payment of any defaulted interest to the persons in whose names any such Securities (or their respective predecessor Securities) are
registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such defaulted interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing
of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such Series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount
of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the
proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the persons entitled to such defaulted interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a special
record date for the payment of such defaulted interest in respect of Securities of such Series which shall be not more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment
and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of, the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such special record date and, in the name and
at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such defaulted interest and the special record date thereof to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Registered
Holder at his address as it appears in the Security register, not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such defaulted interest and the special
record date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such defaulted interest in respect of Securities of such Series shall be paid to the persons in whose names such Securities (or their respective
predecessor Securities) are registered on such special record date and such defaulted interest shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b).

(b) The
Company may make payment of any defaulted interest on the Securities of any Series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any
securities exchange on which the Securities of that Series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed
payment pursuant to this clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

Subject
to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the
rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

SECTION 2.08.Registration, Transfer and Exchange. The Company will cause to be kept at each office or agency to be maintained
for the purpose as provided in Section 3.02 a register or registers in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company will provide for the registration and the
registration of the transfer of, the Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed Security registrar for purposes of registering, and registering transfers of, the Securities.

Upon
surrender 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 make available for delivery in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Security or Securities of the same Series and of a like tenor and
containing the same terms (other than the principal amount thereof, if more than one Security is executed, authenticated and delivered with respect to any security so presented, in which case the
aggregate principal amount of the executed, authenticated and delivered Securities shall equal the principal amount of the Security presented in respect thereof) and conditions.

All
Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this
Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

10

---

Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer
in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

No
service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.11, 8.05 or 12.03 not involving any transfer.

The
Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security during a 15-day period prior to the day of mailing of the relevant

become mutilated or defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company shall execute, and upon the written request of any officer of the Company, the Trustee shall authenticate and make available
for delivery a new Security of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and with the same terms and conditions, 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 to 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 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 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); provided, however, that unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.03, 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 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, 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.

SECTION 2.10.Cancellation of Securities. All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or
exchange, or for credit against any payment in respect of a sinking or

11

---

analogous fund, shall, if surrendered to the Company or any agent of the Company or the Trustee, 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 this Indenture. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any
Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. The Trustee shall return cancelled
Securities held by it 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 authenticate and make available for delivery temporary Securities for such Series (printed, lithographed, typewritten or otherwise reproduced, in each case in form reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee). Temporary Securities of any Series may be issued 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 reasonable concurrence of the Trustee. Temporary Securities may
contain such reference to any provisions of this 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 authenticate and make available for delivery 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 this Indenture as definitive
Securities of such Series.

SECTION 2.12.Securities in Global Form. If Securities of a Series are issuable in global form, as specified as contemplated by
Section 2.03, then, notwithstanding clause (j) of Section 2.03 and the provisions of Section 2.07, such Security shall represent such of the Outstanding Securities of such
series as shall be specified therein and may provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of
Outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be reduced to reflect exchanges.
Any endorsement of a Security in global form to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of Outstanding Securities represented thereby may be made by the Trustee in such manner
and upon instructions given by such Person or Persons as shall be specified therein or in the Company order to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.04. Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.04, the Trustee shall deliver and redeliver any Security in definitive global form in the manner and upon written instructions given by the Person or Persons specified therein or in
the applicable Company order. If a Company order pursuant to Section 2.04 has been, or simultaneously is, delivered, any instructions by the Company with respect to endorsement or delivery or
redelivery of a Security in global form shall be in writing but need not comply with Section 11.05 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel.

The
provisions of the last sentence of Section 2.06 shall apply to any Security represented by a Security in global form if such Security was never issued and sold by the
Company and the Company delivers to the Trustee the Security in global form together with written instructions (which need not comply with Section 11.05 and need not be accompanied by an
Opinion of Counsel) with regard to the reduction in the principal amount of Securities represented thereby, together with the written statement contemplated by the last sentence of
Section 2.06.

12

Notwithstanding
the provisions of Sections 2.03 and 2.07, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03, payment of principal of and any interest on any Security
in definitive global form shall be made to the Person or Persons specified therein.

Except
as provided in the preceding paragraph, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company and the Trustee shall treat a Person as the Holder of such principal amount of
outstanding Securities represented by a definitive global Security as shall be specified in a written statement of the Holder of such definitive global Security.

SECTION 2.13.CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then generally in use), and, if
so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such
numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other 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 3COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

SECTION 3.01.Payment of Principal and Interest. The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of
each particular 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 in accordance with the terms of

otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.03, the Trustee is hereby appointed Paying Agent.

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 Trustee, subject to the provisions of this
Section,

(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, and upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default and upon the written request of the Trustee, pay over all such sums received by it to the Trustee, and

(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.

The
Company will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of or interest on the Securities of such Series, deposit in a timely manner with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to
pay such principal or

13

interest so becoming due, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any failure to take such action.

If
the Company shall act as its own Paying Agent with respect to the Securities of any Series, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of or interest on the Securities of
such Series, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such Series a sum sufficient to pay such principal or interest so becoming due. The
Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any failure to take such action.

Anything
in this Section 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, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained.

each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof, a brief certificate (which need not comply with Section 11.05) from the principal executive, financial or accounting officer of the
Company as to his or her knowledge, after due inquiry, of the Company's compliance with all conditions and covenants under the Indenture (such compliance to be determined without regard to any period
of grace or requirement of notice provided under the Indenture).

SECTION 3.05.Waiver of Certain Covenants. The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or
condition set forth in Section 3.06 with respect to the Securities of any Series if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such Series shall either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such
term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any
such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 3.06.Limitation on Liens. The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create,
incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien on or with respect to any Property of the Company or such Subsidiary or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom, unless the Securities are
secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) any and all other indebtedness secured by such Lien, except for:

(a)
any Lien arising in the ordinary course of business, other than in connection with indebtedness for borrowed money;

Liens (A) may not relate to any Property of the Company or a Subsidiary other than the Property to which the Lien being extended, renewed or replaced related to, and (B) may not secure
indebtedness in excess of that secured by the Lien being extended, renewed or replaced.

ARTICLE 4SECURITYHOLDERS' LISTS AND REPORTS BY THE COMPANY

SECTION 4.01.Company to Furnish Trustee Information as to Names and Addresses of Securityholders. The
Company covenants and agrees that it will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee a list in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of the
Securities of each Series:

(a)
semiannually and not more than 15 days after each record date for the payment of interest on such Securities, as hereinabove specified, as of such record date, and

(b)
at such other times as the Trustee may reasonably request in writing, within 30 days after receipt by the Company of any such request, such list to be as of a date not more
than 15 days prior to the time such information is furnished, provided that if and so long as the Trustee shall be the Security registrar for such Series, such list shall not be required to be
furnished.

SECTION 4.02.Preservation and Disclosure of Securityholders' Lists.

(a)
The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of each Series of Securities contained
in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 4.01 or maintained by the Trustee in its capacity as Security registrar for such Series, if so acting. The Trustee may destroy any
list furnished to it as provided in Section 4.01 upon receipt of a new list so furnished.

(b)
In case three or more Holders of Securities of any Series (hereinafter referred to as "applicants") apply in writing to the Trustee and furnish to the Trustee reasonable proof
that each such applicant has owned a Security for a period of at least six months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with
other Holders of Securities of a particular Series (in which case the applicants must all hold Securities of such Series) or with Holders of all Securities with respect to their rights under this
Indenture or under such Securities and such application is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall, within
five business days after the receipt of such application, at its election, either



If
the Trustee shall elect not to afford to such applicants access to such information, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of such applicants, mail to each Securityholder of
such Series or all Securities, as the case may be, whose name and address appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) of
this Section, a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which is specified in such request, with reasonable promptness after a tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of
payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless within five days after such tender, the Trustee shall mail to such applicants and file with the Commission together
with a copy of the material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best interests of the Holders of Securities of
such Series or all Securities, as the case may be, or could be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If the Commission, after opportunity for
a hearing upon the objections specified in the written

16

---

statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of such order sustaining one or more of such objections, the Commission shall find, after
notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met, and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all such
Securityholders with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting
their application.

(c) Each
and 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 the Company or the Trustee shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of Securities in accordance with the

material pursuant to a request made under such subsection (b).

information, documents, and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) which the Company may be
required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or if the Company is not required to file information,

security listed and registered on a national securities exchange as may be prescribed from time to time in such rules and regulations;

(b) to
file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such additional information,
documents, and reports with respect to compliance by the Company with the conditions and covenants provided for in this Indenture as may be required from time to time by such rules and regulations;

covenant or warranty a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with or which has expressly been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit
of a Series of Securities other than that Series), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 90 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company
by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that Series, a written notice specifying such default or breach and
requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder; or

(d) default
under any bond, debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, or under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under

(e) the
entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) 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 (B) a decree or order adjudging the Company a 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 appointing a custodian, receiver,

other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of such Series in the supplemental indenture or resolution of the Board of Directors establishing
such Series.

If
an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Securities of any Series, then and in each and every such case, unless the principal of all Securities of such
Series shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee for such Series or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Securities of such Series then
Outstanding hereunder, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by such Holders), may declare the principal of all the Securities of such Series to be due and payable
immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable. This provision, however, is subject to the condition that if at any time after the principal
of the Securities of such Series shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall
have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Company shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest, if any, upon all the
Securities of such Series and the principal of any and all Securities of such Series which shall have become due otherwise than by such acceleration (with interest upon such principal and, to the
extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, upon overdue installments of interest, at the rate borne by the Securities of such Series to the date of such payment or
deposit) and in Dollars such amount as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all
advances made, by the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel and any and all defaults under this Indenture, other than the nonpayment of the principal of Securities of such Series which shall have
become due by such acceleration, shall have been remedied, then and in every such case the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Securities of such Series then
Outstanding, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee for the Securities of such Series, may waive all defaults and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences; but no such
waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default or shall impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 5.02.Collection of Indebtedness by Trustee; 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 for the Securities of such Series, the
Company will pay to the Trustee for the Securities of such Series 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 of 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 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, and all expenses and liabilities incurred and all advances made by, the Trustee and each
predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel.

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 persons entitled thereto, whether or not the
principal of and interest on the Securities of such Series are overdue.

19

---

In case the Company shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee for the Securities of such series, 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 under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable Federal or
State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar 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 under 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 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, and all expenses and liabilities incurred and
all advances made by, the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel) and of the Securityholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the
Company or other obligor upon all Securities of any Series, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, and

(b) 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 Securityholders 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 for the Securities of such Series, and, in the event that such Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to the Securityholders, to pay to such Trustee such amounts as shall
be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to, and all expenses and liabilities incurred and all advances made by, such Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and
counsel and all other amounts due to such Trustee or any predecessor Trustee pursuant to Section 6.07.

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

All
rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Securities, may be enforced by the Trustee for the Securities of such Series without the
possession of any of the Securities of such Series or the production thereof at 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 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 for the Securities of such Series (and also any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the
Trustee shall be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Securities in respect of which

20

---

such action was taken, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holders of such Securities parties to any such proceedings.

SECTION 5.03.Application of Proceeds. Any moneys collected by the Trustee for the Securities of such Series pursuant to this
Article in respect of the Securities of any series shall be applied in the following order at the date or dates fixed by such 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 costs and expenses applicable to such Series in respect of which moneys have been collected, including reasonable compensation to, and all expenses and
liabilities incurred and all advances made by, the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys and all other amounts due to the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee
pursuant to Section 6.07;

SECOND:
To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and interest on the Securities of such Series in respect of which moneys have been collected, such payments
to be made ratably to the persons entitled thereto, without discrimination or preference, according to the amounts then due and payable on such Securities for principal and interest; and

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

SECTION 5.04.Restoration of Rights on Abandonment of Proceedings. In case the Trustee for the Securities of any Series shall
have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and
in every such case, subject to the determination in any such proceeding, the Company and the Trustee shall be restored respectively to their former positions and
rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Trustee and the Securityholders shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.

SECTION 5.05.Limitations on Suits by Securityholders. No Holder of any Security of any Series shall have any right by virtue or
by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any action or proceeding at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise upon or under or with respect to this Indenture, or for the
appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official or for any other remedy hereunder, unless such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of
an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such Series then
Outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action or proceedings in its own name as trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonable to
it as it may require, against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby and the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity
shall have failed to institute any such action or proceeding and no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of such Series then Outstanding; it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the taker and Holder of every Security
with every other taker and Holder of a Security and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Securities of any Series shall have any right in any manner whatever, by virtue or by availing of any
provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such Holder of Securities, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder or to
enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders of Securities of the applicable Series.

SECTION 5.06.Unconditional Right of Securityholders to Institute Certain Suits. Notwithstanding any provision in this Indenture
and any provision of any Security, the right of any Holder of any Security to receive payment of the principal of and (subject to Section 2.07) interest on such Security at the respective
rates, in the respective amount on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall
not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

SECTION 5.07.Powers and Remedies Cumulative; Delay or Omission Not Waiver of Default. Except as provided in Section 2.09
and Section 5.05, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Securityholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and
remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion
or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

No
delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Securityholder to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any
such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein; and, subject to Section 5.05, every power and remedy given by this Indenture or
by law to the Trustee or to the Securityholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or the Securityholders.

SECTION 5.08.Control by Securityholders. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each
Series affected (with each Series treated as a separate 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 such Series by this Indenture; provided that such direction shall not be otherwise than in
accordance with law and the provisions of this Indenture and provided further that the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee shall determine that the
action or proceedings so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability or if the Trustee in good faith shall so 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 the Trustee shall
have no duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders

SECTION 5.09.Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such Series
at the time outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such Series waive any past default hereunder or its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of or
interest on any of the Securities of such Series.

Upon
any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have
been cured and not to have occurred for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 5.10.Right of Court to Require Filing of Undertaking to Pay Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder
of any Security, by his acceptance thereof, shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or
in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such
court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Securityholder or group of

22

---

Securityholders of any Series holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such Series, or to any suit instituted by any Securityholder for the enforcement
of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security on or after the due date expressed in such Security.

SECTION 5.11.Suits for Enforcement. In case an Event of Default has occurred, has not been waived and is continuing, the
Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and
enforce any of such rights, either at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the
exercise of any power granted in this Indenture or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Company.

SECTION 6.02.Rights of Trustee.

to the provisions of Section 6.01(c), the Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be

Counsel.

(e) The

with such request or direction.

(f)  The
Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee

expenses or liabilities as a condition to proceeding; the reasonable expenses of every such examination shall be paid by the Company or, if advanced by the Trustee, shall be repaid by the Company upon
demand.

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

(i)  The

unless specifically notified in writing of such event by the Company or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities Outstanding; as used herein, the term "actual
knowledge" means the actual fact or statement of knowing, without any duty to make any investigation with regard thereto.

SECTION 6.03.Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee
of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or its affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, registrar or co-registrar may do the
same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 6.10 and 6.11.

SECTION 6.04. Trustee's Disclaimer. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the
Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company's use of the proceeds from the Securities, it shall not be responsible for any statement in the registration statement for the Securities under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or in the Indenture or the Securities (other than its certificate of authentication).

SECTION 6.05.Notice of Defaults. If a default occurs and is continuing with respect to any Securities of any Series and if the
Trustee has actual knowledge of such default, the Trustee shall give to each Securityholder of such Series notice of the default within 90 days after such default occurs. Except in the case of
a default described in Section 5.01(a) or (b), the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice
is in the interests of Securityholders of such Series.

SECTION 6.06.Reports by Trustee to Holders. Within 60 days after each July 15 beginning with the July 15
following the date of this Indenture, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder of any Series and each other person specified in TIA Section 313 (c) a brief report dated as of such
July 15 that complies with TIA Section 313(a) to the extent required thereby. The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b).

A
copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Securityholders of any Series shall be filed with the Commission and each securities exchange on which the Securities of any Series
are listed. The Company agrees promptly to notify the Trustee whenever the Securities of any Series become listed on any securities exchange and of any delisting thereof.

reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision

As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company in this Section 6.07, 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 the principal of or interest, if any, on particular Securities.

"Trustee"
for purpose of this Section 6.07 includes any predecessor trustee, provided that the negligence or bad faith of any Trustee shall not be attributable to any other
Trustee.

The
Company's payment obligations pursuant to this Section 6.07 shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the discharge of this Indenture. When the
Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a default specified in Sections 5.01(d) and 5.01(e), such expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel) are intended to constitute
expenses of administration under bankruptcy law.

SECTION 6.08.Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to Securities of one or more Series by so
notifying the Company; provided, however, no such resignation shall be effective until a successor Trustee has accepted its appointment pursuant to this Section 6.08. The Holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any Series may remove the Trustee with respect to such Series at the time outstanding by so notifying the Trustee and the Company. The
Company shall remove the Trustee if:

(a) the
Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.10;

(b) the
Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(c) a
receiver or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(d) the
Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If
the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, with respect to the Securities of one or more Series, the Company shall promptly
appoint, by resolution of its Board of Directors, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such Series.

A
successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee
shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such Series. The successor Trustee
shall mail a notice of its succession to Securityholders so affected. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien
provided for in Section 6.07.

If
a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of a majority in
aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities at the time outstanding may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If
the Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.10, any Securityholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a
successor Trustee.

SECTION 6.09.Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or
substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

SECTION 6.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA
Section 310(a)(1). The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. Neither the Company nor
any person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Company shall serve as Trustee hereunder. The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b).

SECTION 6.11.Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a),
excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

ARTICLE 7CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS

SECTION 7.01.Evidence of Action Taken by Securityholders.

(a) Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by a specified percentage in
principal amount of the Securityholders of any or all Series may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such specified percentage of
Securityholders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are
delivered to the Trustee. Proof of execution of any instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Sections 6.01 and 6.02)
conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Article.

(b) The
ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security register.

SECTION 7.02.Proof of Execution of Instruments. Subject to Sections 6.01 and 6.02, the execution of any instrument by a
Securityholder or his agent or proxy may be proved in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the
Trustee.

SECTION 7.03. Holders to Be Treated as Owners.The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may deem and
treat the person in whose name any Security shall be registered upon the Security register for such Series as the absolute owner of such Security (whether or not such Security shall be overdue and
notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and interest on such Security and for all other purposes;
and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments so made to any such person,
or upon his order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable upon any such Security.

SECTION 7.04.Securities Owned by Company Deemed Not Outstanding. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate
principal amount of Outstanding Securities of any or all series have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture, Securities which are owned by the Company or any other obligor
on the Securities with respect to which such determination is being made or by any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the
Company or any other obligor on the Securities with respect to which such determination is being made shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination,
except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver only Securities which the Trustee actually knows are so owned
shall be so disregarded. Securities so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right so
to act with respect to such Securities and that the pledgee is not the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under
direct or indirect common control with the Company or any other obligor on the Securities.

SECTION 7.05.Right of Revocation of Action Taken. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as
provided in Section 7.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any or all Series, as the case may be, specified in
this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Security the serial number of which is shown by the evidence to be included among the serial numbers of the Securities the Holders of
which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice at the Corporate Trust Office and upon proof of holding as provided in this Article, revoke such action so far as concerns such
Security. Except as aforesaid any such action taken by the Holder of any Security shall be conclusive

27

---

and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Security and of any Securities issued in exchange or substitution therefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation in
regard thereto is made upon any such Security. Any action taken by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any or all Series, as the case may be, specified in
this Indenture in connection with such action shall be conclusively binding upon the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of all the Securities affected by such action.

ARTICLE 8SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

SECTION 8.01.Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Securityholders. The Company, when authorized
by a resolution of its Board of Directors, and the Trustee for the Securities of any and all Series may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental

Series and, if such additional covenants are to be for the benefit of less than all the Series of Securities, stating that such covenants are being added solely for the benefit of such Series;

(d) to
cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture which may be defective or inconsistent with any
other provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture, or to make such other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising under this Indenture or under any supplemental indenture
as the Board of Directors may deem necessary or desirable and which shall not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Securities;

(e) to

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 the one Trustee, pursuant to the requirements
of Section 6.08.

The
Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Company in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be

into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto (which shall conform to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 as in force at the date of execution thereof) for the purpose of adding
any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the
Securities of each such Series; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall (a) extend the final maturity of any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or any premium
thereon, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any amount payable on redemption thereof, or impair or affect the right of any Securityholder to institute suit
for payment thereof or, if the Securities provide therefor, any right of repayment at the option of the Securityholder without the consent of the Holder of each Security so affected, or
(b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities of any Series, the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the Holders of each
Security so affected, or (c) reduce the amount of principal payable upon acceleration of the maturity of any Original Issue Discount Security.

Upon
the request of the Company, accompanied by a copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors certified by the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Company authorizing the
execution of any such supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee for such Series of Securities of evidence of the consent of securityholders as aforesaid and other documents, if any,
required by Section 7.01, the Trustee for such Series of Securities shall join with the Company in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects such
Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case such Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture.

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

Promptly
after the execution by the Company and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Company shall give notice in the manner and
to the extent provided in Section 11.04 to the Holders of Securities of each Series affected thereby at their addresses as they shall appear on the Security register of the Company, setting
forth in general terms the
substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental
indenture.

SECTION 8.03.Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions
hereof, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this
Indenture of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of Securities of each Series affected thereby shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such
modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all
purposes.

SECTION 8.04.Documents to Be Given to Trustee. The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections 6.01 and
6.02, shall receive an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article 8 complies with the applicable
provisions of this Indenture.

SECTION 8.05.Notation on Securities in Respect of Supplemental Indentures. Securities of any
Series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article may bear, upon the direction of the Company, a notation in form
satisfactory to the Trustee for the Securities of such Series as to any matter provided for by such supplemental indenture. If the Company or the Trustee shall so determine, new Securities of any
Series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors, to any modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared by the
Company, authenticated by the Trustee and delivered in exchange for the Securities of such Series then outstanding.

covenant or condition.

SECTION 9.02.Successor Corporation Substituted. In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance, and
following such an assumption by the successor corporation, such successor corporation shall succeed to and be substituted for the Company, with the same effect as if it had been named herein. Such
successor corporation may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company prior to such succession any or all of the Securities issuable hereunder which
theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor corporation instead of the Company and subject to all the terms, conditions
and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall make available for delivery any Securities which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers
of the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and any Securities which such successor corporation thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All of the
Securities so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture
as though all of such Securities had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

In
case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the Securities thereafter to be issued
as may be appropriate.

In
the event of any such sale or conveyance the Company (or any successor corporation which shall theretofore have become such in the manner described in this Article) shall be
discharged from all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities and may be liquidated and dissolved.

SECTION 9.03.Opinion of Counsel to Trustee. The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections 6.01 and 6.02, shall receive an
Opinion of Counsel, prepared in accordance with Section 11.05, as conclusive evidence that any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance, and any such assumption, and any such
liquidation or dissolution, complies with the applicable provisions of this Indenture.

(a) If
at any time (i) the Company shall have paid or caused to be paid the principal of and interest on all the Securities of any Series Outstanding hereunder
(other than Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.09) as and when the same shall have become due and payable, or
(ii) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee for cancellation all Securities of any Series theretofore authenticated (other than any Securities of such Series which have been destroyed,

cancellation shall have become due and payable, or are by their terms to become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to
the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption, and (B) the Company shall have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds the entire amount (other than
moneys repaid by the Trustee or any Paying Agent to the Company in accordance with Section 10.04) or Government Obligations maturing as to principal and interest in such amounts and at such
times as will ensure the availability of cash sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption all Securities of such Series (other than any Securities of such Series which shall have been destroyed,
lost or stolen and which shall have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.09) not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, including principal and interest due or to
become due to such date of maturity as the case may be, and if, in any such case, the Company shall also pay or cause to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company with respect to
Securities of such Series, then this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to Securities of such Series (except as to (1) rights of registration of transfer and exchange,
and the Company's right of optional redemption (provided the Company provides sufficient funds to effect such optional redemption), (2) substitution of mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or
stolen Securities, (3) rights of Holders to receive payments of
principal thereof and interest thereon upon the original stated due dates therefor (but not upon acceleration) and remaining rights of the Holders to receive mandatory sinking fund payments, if any,
(4) the rights, obligations and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (5) the rights of the Securityholders of such Series as beneficiaries hereof with respect to the property so
deposited with the Trustee payable to all or any of them), and, subject to Section 10.05, the Trustee, on demand of the Company accompanied by an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
and at the cost and expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging such satisfaction of and discharging this Indenture with respect to such Series; provided, that the rights of
Holders of the Securities to receive amounts in respect of principal of and interest on the Securities held by them shall not be delayed longer than required by then-applicable mandatory
rules or policies of any securities exchange upon which the Securities are listed. The Company agrees to reimburse the Trustee for any costs or expenses thereafter reasonably and properly incurred and
to compensate the Trustee for any services thereafter reasonably and properly rendered by the Trustee in connection with this Indenture and the Securities of such Series.

(b) (i) In
addition to the provisions of Section 10.01(a), the Company may, at its option by or pursuant to, or otherwise in a manner or by such Persons
as may be authorized pursuant to, one or more resolutions duly adopted by the Board of Directors, at any time with respect to the Securities of any Series, elect to have defeasance under subsection
(ii) or (iii) of this Section 10.01(b) be applied to the Outstanding Securities of such Series provided that provision therefor is made for such application pursuant to
Section 2.03 and the applicable conditions thereto as set forth in this Section 10.01(b) have been satisfied.

SECTION 10.02.Application by Trustee of Funds Deposited for Payment of Securities. Subject to Section 10.04, all moneys
deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 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 have been deposited with the Trustee, of all sums due and to become due
thereon for principal and interest; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The
Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the Government Obligations deposited pursuant to
Section 10.01 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities.

SECTION 10.03. Repayment of Moneys Held by Paying Agent. In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
with respect to Securities of any Series, all moneys then held by any

33

---

Paying Agent (other than the Company) under the provisions of this Indenture with respect to such Series of Securities shall, upon written demand of the Company, be paid to the Trustee and thereupon
such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such moneys.

SECTION 10.04. Return of Unclaimed Moneys Held by Trustee and Paying Agent. Any moneys deposited with or paid to the Trustee or
any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own 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, unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of
applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property law, promptly be repaid to the Company by the Trustee for such Series or such Paying Agent (except that with respect to any amounts then held by
the Company in trust as its own Paying Agent no such request need be given and at such time the Company shall be discharged from its duty to hold such moneys in trust as 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 shall thereupon cease. Anything in this Article 10 to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the written request of the Company any money or Government Obligations held by it as provided in
Section 10.01(b)(iv) which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in
excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect such defeasance or covenant defeasance, as the case may be, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

SECTION 10.05.Reinstatement of Company's Obligations. If the Trustee is unable to apply any funds or Government Obligations in
accordance with Section 10.01 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such
application, the Company's obligations under this indenture and the Securities of any Series for which such application is prohibited shall be revived and reinstated as if no deposit had occurred
pursuant to Section 10.01 until such time as the Trustee is permitted to apply all such funds or Government Obligations in accordance with Section 10.01; provided, however, that if the
Company has made any payment of interest on or principal of any of such Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Securityholders
of such Securities to receive such payment from the funds or Government Obligations held by the Trustee.

ARTICLE 11MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

SECTION 11.01. Incorporators, Stockholders, Officers and Directors of Company Exempt from Individual Liability. No recourse
under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture, in any Security, or because of any indebtedness evidenced thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, as such or
against any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director, as such, of the Company or of any successor, either directly or through the Company or any successor, under any rule of law,
statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released by the
acceptance of the Securities by the Holders thereof and as part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

SECTION 11.02. Provisions of Indenture for the Sole Benefit of Parties and Securityholders. Nothing in this Indenture or in the
Securities, expressed or implied, shall give or be construed to give to any Person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto, any Paying Agent and their successors hereunder and the Holders
of the Securities any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture or under any covenant or provision herein contained, all such covenants and provisions being for the sole benefit
of the parties hereto and their successors and of the Holders of the Securities.

SECTION 11.03.Successors and Assigns of Company Bound by Indenture. All the covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements
in this Indenture contained by or on behalf of the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

SECTION 11.04.Notices and Demands on Company, Trustee and Securityholders. Any notice or demand which by any provision of this
Indenture is required or permitted to be given or served by the Trustee or by the Holders of Securities to or on the Company may be given or served by being deposited postage prepaid, first-class mail
(except as otherwise specifically provided herein) addressed (until another address of the Company is filed by the Company with the Trustee) to WellPoint Health Networks Inc., 1 Wellpoint Way,
Thousand Oaks, CA 91362, Attention: Corporate Secretary. Any notice, direction, request or demand by the Company or any Securityholder to or upon the Trustee shall be deemed to have been sufficiently
given or made, for all purposes, if given or made at the Corporate Trust Office.

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 by
first-class mail, postage prepaid
to such Holders as their names and addresses appear in the Security register within the time prescribed. 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 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, and any notice which is mailed in the manner herein
provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given.

In
case, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service, it shall be impracticable to mail notice to the Company and Securityholders when such notice is
required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of
such notice.

SECTION 11.05. Offices' Certificates and Opinions of Counsel; Statements to Be Contained Therein. Upon any application or demand
by the Company to the Trustee to take any action under any of the provisions of this Indenture, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating

35

---

that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all
such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with, except that in the case of any such application or demand as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any
provision of this Indenture relating to such particular application or demand, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished.

Each
certificate or opinion provided for in this Indenture and delivered to the Trustee with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall
include (a) a statement that the person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition, (b) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or
investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based, (c) a statement that, in the opinion of such person, he has made such examination or
investigation as is necessary to enable him to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with and (d) a statement as to whether or not, in
the opinion of such person, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

Any
certificate, statement or opinion of an officer of the Company may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of or representations by
counsel, unless such officer knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate, statement or opinion may be based as aforesaid are
erroneous, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know that the same are erroneous. Any certificate, statement or opinion of
counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters or information with respect to which is in the possession of the Company, upon the certificate, statement or opinion of or
representations by an officer or officers of the Company, unless such counsel knows that the certificate, statement or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his
certificate, statement or opinion may be based as aforesaid are erroneous, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know that the same are erroneous.

Any
certificate, statement or opinion of an officer of the Company or of counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to accounting matters, upon a certificate or opinion of or
representations by an accountant or firm of accountants in the employ of the Company, unless such officer or counsel, as the case may be, knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with
respect to the accounting matters upon which his certificate, statement or opinion may be based as aforesaid are erroneous, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know that the same are
erroneous.

SECTION 11.06.Payments Due on Saturdays, Sundays and Holidays. Unless otherwise specified in a Security, if the date of
maturity of interest on or principal of the Securities of any Series or the date fixed for redemption or repayment of any such Security shall not be a Business Day, then payment of interest or
principal need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date of maturity or the date fixed for redemption, and no
interest shall accrue for the period after such date.

SECTION 11.07.Conflict of Any Provision of Indenture with Trust Indenture Act of 1939. If and to the extent that any provision
of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision included in this Indenture which is required by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, such required provision shall
control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, that may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed
to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be.

SECTION 11.08. New York Law to Govern. This Indenture and each Security shall be deemed to be a contract under the internal laws
of the State of New York (without regard to conflicts of laws provisions thereof), and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the laws of said State,

36

---

provided, however, that the rights and duties of the Trustee hereunder shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of the Trustee's principal place of business.

SECTION 11.09.Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original;
but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

SECTION 11.10.Effect of Headings; Gender. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience
only and shall not affect the construction hereof. The use of the masculine, feminine or neuter gender herein shall not limit in any way the applicability of any term or provision hereof.

ARTICLE 12REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES AND SINKING FUNDS

SECTION 12.01.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 12.02. Notice of Redemption; Partial Redemptions. Notice of redemption to the Holders of Securities of any Series
required to be redeemed or to be redeemed as a whole or in part at the option of the Company shall be given by giving notice of such redemption as provided in Section 11.04, at least
15 days and not more than forty-five days prior to the date fixed for redemption to such Holders of Securities of such Series. 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.

The
notice of redemption to each such Holder shall specify the date fixed for redemption, the "CUSIP" number or numbers for such Securities, the redemption price, 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, that on and after said date interest thereon or on the portions thereof to be redeemed will cease to accrue
and, if applicable, that a Holder of Securities who desires to convert Securities for redemption must satisfy the requirements for conversion contained in such Securities, the then existing conversion
price or rate and the date and time when the option to convert shall expire. If less than all of the Securities of any Series are to be redeemed, the notice of redemption shall specify the numbers of
the Securities of such Series to be redeemed. In case any Security of a Series is to be redeemed in part, 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 at the option of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the Trustee in the name
and at the expense of the Company. If such notice is to be given by the Trustee, or if less than all the Securities of a Series are to be redeemed and the Trustee is to make a selection of the
Securities of such Series to
be redeemed, the Company shall provide notice of such redemption to the Trustee at least forty-five days prior to the date fixed for redemption (unless a shorter notice shall be
satisfactory to the Trustee). If such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall provide a copy of such notice given to the Holders of such redemption to the Trustee at least 3 Business Days
prior to the date such notice is given to such Holders, but in any event at least 15 days prior to the date fixed for redemption (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee).

37

---

Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.03, not later than the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption given as provided in this Section, the Company
will have on 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 3.04) in funds available on such date 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. If less than all the Outstanding Securities of a Series are to be redeemed, the Company will deliver to the Trustee
at least forty-five days prior to the date fixed for redemption an Officers' Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be redeemed.

If
less than all the Securities of a Series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select, in such manner as it shall deem appropriate and fair, Securities of such Series to be
redeemed in whole or in part and 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. However, if less than all the Securities of any Series with differing issue dates, interest rates and stated maturities
are to be redeemed, the Company in its sole discretion shall select the particular securities to be redeemed and shall notify the Trustee in writing thereof at least forty-five days prior
to the relevant redemption date. Securities may be redeemed in part in multiples equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of such Series or any multiple thereof. 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.

SECTION 12.03.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, except as provided in Sections 6.01 and 10.04, 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 if for any Securities the date fixed for redemption is a regular interest payment date, payment of
interest becoming due on such date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities registered as such on the relevant record date subject to the terms and provisions of Section 2.07 hereof.

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 borne by the Security.

Upon
presentation of any Security redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to or on the order of the Holder
thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities, of authorized denominations, in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security so presented.

38

---

SECTION 12.04.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 a written statement signed by an authorized officer of the Company and delivered to the
Trustee at least 30 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 as directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with
the Company.

SECTION 12.05.Mandatory and Optional Sinking Funds. The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of
Securities of any Series is herein referred to as a "mandatory sinking fund payment," and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any Series is herein
referred to as an "optional sinking fund payment." The date on which a sinking fund payment is to be made is herein referred to as the "sinking fund payment date."

In
lieu of making all or any part of any mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to any Series of Securities in cash, the Company may at its option (a) deliver to the
Trustee securities of such Series theretofore purchased or otherwise acquired (except upon redemption pursuant to the mandatory sinking fund) by the Company or receive credit for Securities of such
series (not previously so credited) theretofore purchased or otherwise acquired (except as aforesaid) by the Company and delivered to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to Section 2.10,
(b) receive credit for optional sinking fund payments (not previously so credited) made pursuant to this Section, or (c) receive credit for Securities of such Series (not previously so
credited) redeemed by the Company through any optional redemption provision contained in the terms of such Series. Securities so delivered or credited shall be received or credited by the Trustee at
the sinking fund redemption price specified in such Securities.

On
or before the forty-fifth day next preceding each sinking fund payment date for any Series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee a written statement (which need
not contain the statements required by Section 11.05) signed by an authorized officer of the Company (a) specifying the portion of the mandatory sinking fund payment to be satisfied by
payment of cash (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.03 for the Securities of such Series), and the portion to be satisfied by delivery or credit of Securities of such Series,
(b) stating that none of the Securities of such Series for which credit is sought has theretofore been so credited, (c) stating that no defaults in the payment of interest or Events of
Default with respect to such Series have occurred (which have not been waived or cured) and are continuing, (d) stating whether or not the Company intends to exercise its right to make an
optional sinking fund payment with respect to such Series and, if so, specifying the amount of such optional sinking fund payment which the Company intends to pay on or before the next succeeding
sinking fund payment date and (e) specifying such sinking fund payment date. Any Securities of such Series to be credited and required to be delivered on the Trustee in order for the Company to
be entitled to credit therefor as aforesaid which have not theretofore been delivered to the Trustee shall be delivered for cancellation pursuant to Section 2.10 to the Trustee with such
written statement. Such written statement shall be irrevocable and upon its receipt by the Trustee the Company shall become
unconditionally obligated to make all the cash payments or payments therein referred to, if any, on or before the next succeeding sinking fund payment date. Failure of the Company, on or before any
such forty-fifth day, to deliver such written statement and Securities specified in this paragraph, if any, shall not constitute a default but shall constitute, on and as of such date, the irrevocable
election of the Company (i) that the mandatory sinking fund payment for such Series due on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date shall be paid entirely in cash without the option to
deliver or credit Securities of such Series in respect thereof and (ii) that the Company will make no optional sinking fund payment with respect to such Series as provided in this Section.

39

---

If the sinking fund payment or payments (mandatory or optional or both) to be made in cash on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date plus any unused balance of any preceding
sinking fund payments made in cash shall exceed $100,000 (or a lesser sum if the Company shall so request) with respect to the Securities of any particular Series, such cash shall be applied on the
next succeeding sinking fund payment date to the redemption of Securities of such Series at the sinking fund redemption price together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption. If such
amount shall be $100,000 or less and the Company makes no such request then it shall be carried over until a sum in excess of $100,000 is available. The Trustee shall select, in the manner provided in
Section 12.02 and giving effect to any exclusions required pursuant to Section 12.04, for redemption on such sinking fund payment date a sufficient principal amount of Securities of such
Series to absorb said cash, as nearly as may be possible, and shall (if requested in writing by the Company) inform the Company of the serial numbers of the Securities of such Series (or portions
thereof) so selected. The Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Company (or the Company, if it shall so notify the Trustee in writing), shall cause notice of redemption of the Securities of
such Series to be given in substantially the manner provided in Section 12.02 (and with the effect provided in Section 12.03) for the redemption of Securities of such Series at the
option of the Company. The amount of any sinking fund payments not so applied or allocated to the redemption of Securities of such Series shall be added to the next cash sinking fund payment for such
Series and, together with such payment, shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of this Section. Any and all sinking fund moneys held on the stated maturity date of the Securities of any
particular series (or earlier, if such maturity is accelerated), which are not held for the payment or redemption of particular Securities of such Series shall be applied, together with other moneys,
if necessary, sufficient for the purpose, to the payment of the principal of, and interest on, the Securities of such Series at maturity.

Unless
otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.03, not later than the sinking fund payment date, the Company shall have paid to the Trustee in cash or shall otherwise provide
in funds available on such date for the payment of all principal and interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption on Securities to be redeemed on such sinking fund payment date.

The
Trustee shall not redeem or cause to be redeemed any Securities of a Series with sinking fund moneys or mail or publish any notice of redemption of Securities for such Series by
operation of the sinking fund during the continuance of a default in payment of interest on such Securities or of any Event of Default except that, where the mailing or publication of notice of
redemption of any Securities shall theretofore have been made, the Trustee shall redeem or cause to be redeemed such
Securities, provided that it shall have received from the Company a sum sufficient for such redemption. Except as aforesaid, any moneys in the sinking fund for such Series at the time when any such
default or Event of Default shall occur, and any moneys thereafter paid into the sinking fund, shall, during the continuance of such default or Event of Default, be deemed to have been collected under
Article 5 and held for the payment of all such Securities. In case such Event of Default shall have been waived as provided in Section 5.09 or the default cured on or before the sixtieth
day preceding the sinking fund payment date in any year, such moneys shall thereafter be applied on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date in accordance with this Section to the redemption of
such Securities.

SECTION 12.06. Repayment at the Option of the Holders. Securities of any Series which are repayable at the option of the Holders
thereof before their stated maturity shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of the Securities of such Series.

The
repayment of any principal amount of Securities pursuant to such option of the Holder to require repayment of Securities before their stated maturity, for purposes of
Section 10.01, shall not operate as a payment, redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the Company, at its option, shall deliver or
surrender the same to the Trustee with a directive that such Securities be cancelled.

40

---

SECTION 12.07.Conversion Arrangement on Call for Redemption. In connection with any redemption of Securities, the Company may
arrange for the purchase and conversion of any Securities called for redemption by an agreement with one or more investment bankers or other purchasers to purchase such Securities by paying to the
Trustee or the Paying Agent in trust for the Holders of Securities, on or before 10:00 a.m. New York time on the redemption date, an amount not less than the redemption price, together with
interest, if any, accrued to the redemption date of such Securities, in immediately available funds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 12, the obligation of the
Company to pay the redemption price of such Securities, including all accrued interest, if any, shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged to the extent such amount is so paid by such purchasers.
If such an agreement is entered into, any Securities not duly surrendered for conversion by the Holders thereof may, at the option of the Company, be deemed, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
acquired by such purchasers from such Holders and surrendered by such purchasers for conversion, all as of immediately prior to the close of business on the last day on which Securities of such series
called for redemption may be converted in accordance with this Indenture and the terms of such Securities, subject to payment to the Trustee or Paying Agent of the above-described amount. The Trustee
or the Paying Agent shall hold and pay to the Holders whose Securities are selected for redemption any such amount paid to it in the same manner as it would pay moneys deposited with it by the Company
for the redemption of Securities. Without the Trustee's and the Paying Agent's prior written consent, no arrangement between the Company and such purchasers for the purchase and conversion of any
Securities shall increase or otherwise affect any of the powers, duties, responsibilities or obligations of the Trustee and the Paying Agent as set forth in this Indenture, and the Company agrees to
indemnify the Trustee and the Paying Agent from, and hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense arising out of or in connection with any such arrangement for the purchase and
conversion of any Securities between the Company and such purchasers, including the costs and expenses incurred by the
Trustee and the Paying Agent (including the fees and expenses of their agents and counsel) in the defense of any claim or liability arising out of or in connection with the exercise or performance of
any of their powers, duties, responsibilities or obligations under this Indenture.

ARTICLE 13CONVERSION OF SECURITIES

SECTION 13.01.Applicability of Article. Securities of any series which are convertible into Common Shares at the option of the
Holder of such Securities shall be convertible in accordance with their terms and (unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03 for the Securities of any series) in accordance
with this Article. Each reference in this Article 13 to "a Security" or "the Securities" refers to the Securities of the particular Series that is convertible into Common Shares. If more than
one Series of Securities with conversion privileges are Outstanding at any time, the provisions of this Article 13 shall be applied separately to each such series.

SECTION 13.02.Right of Holders to Convert Securities into Common Shares. Subject to and upon compliance with the terms of the
Securities and the provisions of Section 12.07 and this Article 13, at the option of the Holder thereof, any Security of any series of any authorized denomination which is convertible
into Common Shares, or any portion of the principal amount thereof which is $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000, may, at any time during the period specified in the Securities of such series, or
in case such Security or portion thereof shall have been called for redemption, then in respect of such Security or portion thereof until and including, but not after (unless the Company shall default
in payment due upon the redemption thereof) the close of business on the redemption date (except that in the case of repayment at the option of the Holder, if specified in the terms of the relevant
Security, such right shall terminate upon the Company's receipt of written notice of the exercise of such option), be converted into duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable
Common Shares, as specified in such Security, at the conversion price or conversion rate for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities (such initial conversion rate reflecting an initial conversion
price specified in such Security) in effect on the conversion date, or, in case an adjustment in the conversion price has taken place pursuant to the provisions of this Article 13, then at the
applicable conversion price as so adjusted, upon surrender of the Security or Securities, the principal amount of which is so to be converted, to the Company at any time during usual business hours at
the office or agency to be maintained by it in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.02, accompanied by a written notice of election to convert as provided in Section 13.03 and, if
the Holder requests that the Common Shares be registered in a name other than that of the Holder, by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and/or the
Trustee, as applicable, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. All Securities surrendered for conversion shall, if surrendered to the Company or any conversion
agent, be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and cancelled by it, or shall, if surrendered to the Trustee, be cancelled by it, as provided in Section 2.10.

The
initial conversion price or conversion rate in respect of a Series of Securities shall be as specified in the Securities of such Series. The conversion price or conversion rate
will be subject to adjustment on the terms set forth in Section 13.05 or such other or different terms, if any, as may be specified by
Section 2.03 for Securities of such Series. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to conversion of all of a Security also apply to conversion of any portion of it.

SECTION 13.03.Issuance of Common Shares on Conversions. As promptly as practicable after the surrender, as herein provided, of
any Security or Securities for conversion into Common Shares, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered at its said office or agency to or upon the written order of the Holder of the Security
or Securities so surrendered a certificate or certificates representing the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable Common Shares into which such Security or Securities
may be converted in accordance with the terms thereof and the provisions of this Article 13. Prior to delivery of such certificate or certificates, the Company shall require written notice at
its said office or agency from the Holder of the Security or Securities so surrendered stating that the Holder irrevocably elects to convert such Security or Securities, or, if less than the entire
principal

42

---

amount thereof is to be converted, stating the portion thereof to be converted. Such notice shall also state the name or names (with address and social security or other taxpayer identification
number) in which said certificate or certificates are to be issued. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made at the time that such Security or Securities shall have been surrendered for
conversion and such notice shall have been received by the Company or the Trustee, the rights of the Holder of such Security or Securities as a Holder shall cease at such time, the Person or Persons
entitled to receive the Common Shares upon conversion of such Security or Securities shall be treated for all purposes as having become either record holder or holders of such Common Shares at such
time and such conversion shall be at the conversion price in effect at such time. In the case of any Security of any Series which is converted in part only, upon such conversion, the Company shall
execute and, upon the Company's request and at the Company's expense, the Trustee or an authenticating agent shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder thereof, as requested by such Holder, a new
Security or Securities of such Series of authorized denominations in aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of such Security.

If
the last day on which such Security may be converted is not a Business Day in a place where the conversion agent for that Security is located, such Security may be surrendered to
that conversion agent on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day.

The
Company shall not be required to deliver certificates for Common Shares upon conversion while its stock transfer books are closed for a meeting of shareholders or for the payment
of dividends or for any other purpose, but certificates for Common Shares shall be delivered as soon as the stock transfer books shall again be opened.

SECTION 13.04.No Payment or Adjustment for Interest or Dividends. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 2.03 for Securities of such Series, Securities surrendered for conversion into Common Shares during the period from the close of business on any regular record date (or special record
date) next preceding any interest payment date to the opening of business on such interest
payment date (except Securities called for redemption on a redemption date within such period) when surrendered for conversion must be accompanied by payment (by certified or official bank check to
the order of the Company payable in clearing house funds at the location where the Securities are surrendered) of an amount equal to the interest thereon which the Holder is entitled to receive on
such interest payment date. Payment of interest shall be made, on such interest payment date or such other payment date (as set forth in Section 2.07), as the case may be, to the Holder of the
Securities as of such regular record date or special record date, as applicable. Except where Securities surrendered for conversion must be accompanied by payment as described above, no interest on
converted Securities will be payable by the Company on any interest payment date subsequent to the date of conversion. No other payment or adjustment for interest or dividends is to be made upon
conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon conversion of any Original Issue Discount Security, the fixed number of Common Shares into which such Security is convertible delivered by the Company
to the Holder thereof shall be applied, first, to the portion attributable to the accrued original issue discount relating to the period from the date of issuance to the date of conversion of such
Security, and, second, to the portion attributable to the balance of the principal amount of such Security.

SECTION 13.05. Adjustment of Conversion Price. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03 for Securities
of such Series, the conversion price for Securities convertible into Common Shares shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

(a) In
case the Company shall (x) pay a dividend or make a distribution on Common Shares in Common Shares, (y) subdivide the outstanding Common Shares
into a greater number of shares or (z) combine the outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, the conversion price for the Securities of such Series shall be adjusted so that
the Holder of any such Security thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of Common Shares which he would

43

---

have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had such Security been converted immediately prior to the record date in the case of a dividend or
the effective date in the case of subdivision or combination. An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a) shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a
dividend, except as provided in subsection (h) below, and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision or combination.

(b) In
case the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of Common Shares entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 days after the record date
mentioned below) to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at a price per share less than the current market price per share of Common Shares (as defined for purposes of this subsection (b) in
subsection (e) below), at the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the conversion price in effect immediately prior thereto shall be
adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the conversion price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number
of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the number of Common Shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of Common Shares so offered would purchase at such current
market price, and the denominator of which shall be the
number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the number of additional Common Shares receivable upon exercise of such rights or warrants. Such adjustment shall be made successively
whenever any such rights or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately, except as provided in subsection (h) below, after such record date. In determining whether any rights or
warrants entitle the Holders of the Securities of such Series to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at less than such current market price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such
Common Shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights or warrants plus the exercise price thereof, the value of such consideration or exercise
price, as the case may be, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.

(c) In
case the Company shall distribute to all holders of Common Shares any shares of capital stock of the Company (other than Common Shares) or evidences of its
indebtedness or assets (excluding cash dividends or distributions paid from retained earnings of the Company) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those
rights or warrants referred to in subsection (b) above) (any of the foregoing being herein in this subsection (c) called the "Special Securities"), then, in each such case, unless the
Company elects to reserve such Special Securities for distribution to the Holders of Securities of such Series upon the conversion so that any such Holder converting such Securities will receive upon
such conversion, in addition to the Common Shares to which such Holder is entitled, the amount and kind of Special Securities which such Holder would have received if such Holder had, immediately
prior to the record date for the distribution of the Special Securities, converted Securities into Common Shares, the conversion price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price
determined by multiplying the conversion price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the current market price per share (as defined for purposes
of this subsection (c) in subsection (e) below) of Common Shares on the record date mentioned above less the then fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose
determination shall, if made in good faith, be conclusive) of the portion of the Special Securities so distributed applicable to one Common Share, and the denominator of which shall be the current
market price per Common Shares (as defined in subsection (e) below); provided, however, that in the event the then fair market value (as so determined) of the portion of the Special Securities
so distributed applicable to one Common Share is equal to or greater than the current market price per Common Share (as defined in subsection (e) below) on the record date mentioned above, in
lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Holder of Securities of such Series shall have the right to receive the amount and kind of Special Securities such
holder would have received had he converted such Securities immediately prior to the record date for the distribution of the Special Securities. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately,
except as provided in

44

---

subsection (h) below, after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution.

(d) If,
pursuant to subsection (b) or (c) above, the conversion price shall have been adjusted because the Company has declared a dividend, or made a
distribution, on the outstanding Common Shares in the form of any right or warrant to purchase securities of the Company, or the Company has issued any such right or warrant, then, upon the expiration
of any such unexercised right or unexercised warrant, the conversion price shall forthwith be adjusted to equal the conversion price that would have applied had such right or warrant never been
declared, distributed or issued.

(e) For
the purpose of any computation under subsection (b) above, the current market price per Common Share on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the
reported last sales prices for the thirty consecutive Trading Days (as defined below) commencing forty-five Trading Days before the date in question. For the purpose of any computation
under subsection (c) above, the current market price per Common Share on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the reported last sales prices for the ten consecutive Trading Days before
the date in question. The reported last sales price for each day (whether for purposes of subsection (b) or subsection (c)) shall be the reported last sales price, regular way, or, in case no
sale takes place on such day, the average of the reported closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in either case as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape or, if the Common Shares
are not listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange, on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Shares are listed or admitted to trading or, if not listed or
admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, on the National Market of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated Quotations System ("NASDAQ") or, if the Common
Shares are not quoted on such National Market, the average of the closing bid and asked prices on such day in the over-the-counter market as reported by NASDAQ or, if bid and
asked prices for the Common Shares on each such day shall not have been reported through NASDAQ, the average of the bid and asked prices for such day as furnished by any New York Stock Exchange member
firm regularly making a market in the Common Shares selected for such purpose by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof or, if no such quotations are available, the fair market value of the
Common Shares as determined by a New York Stock Exchange member firm regularly making a market in the Common Shares selected for such purpose by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof. As used
herein, the term "Trading Day" with respect to the Common Shares means (x) if the Common Shares are listed or admitted for trading on the New York Stock Exchange or another national securities
exchange, a day on which the New York Stock Exchange or such other national securities exchange is open for business or (y) if the Common Shares are quoted on the National Market of the NASDAQ,
a day on which trades may be made on such National Market or (z) otherwise, any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York are
authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close.

(f)  No
adjustment in the conversion price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in such price; provided,
however, that any adjustments which by reason of this subsection (f) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; and, provided,
further, that adjustment shall be required and made in accordance with the provisions of this Article 13 (other than this subsection (f)) not later than such time as may be required in order to
preserve the tax free nature of a distribution to the holders of Common Shares. All calculations under this Article 13 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest 1/100 of a share, as
the case may be, with one-half cent and 1/200 of a share, respectively, being rounded upward. Anything in this Section 13.05 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall be
entitled to make such reductions in the conversion price, in addition to those required by this Section 13.05, as it in its discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any stock
dividend, subdivision of shares, distribution of rights or warrants to purchase stock or securities, or distribution of other assets (other than cash dividends) hereafter made by the Company to its
shareholders shall not be taxable.

45

---

(g) Whenever the conversion price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and
with the office or agency maintained by the Company for the conversion of Securities of such Series pursuant to Section 3.02, an Officers' Certificate, setting forth the conversion price after
such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, which certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment. Neither the Trustee
nor any conversion agent shall be under any duty or responsibility with respect to any such certificate or any facts or computations set forth therein, except to exhibit said certificate from time to
time to any Holder of a Security of such Series desiring to inspect the same. The Company shall promptly cause a notice setting forth the adjusted conversion price to be mailed to the Holders of
Securities of such Series, as their names and addresses appear upon the Security register of the Company.

(h) In
any case in which this Section 13.05 provides that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event, the Company may
defer until the occurrence of such event (y) issuing to the Holder of any Security of such Series converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common
Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and
(z) paying to such holder any amount in cash in lieu of any fractional Common Shares pursuant to Section 13.06 hereof.

Section 13.6.No Fractional Shares to Be Issued. No fractional Common Shares shall be issued upon any conversion of Securities.
If more than one Security of any Series shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares which shall be issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed
on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such Series (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted hereby) so surrendered. Instead of a fraction of a share of
Common Stock which would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any Security or Securities (or specified portions thereof), the Company shall pay a cash adjustment (computed to the nearest cent,
with one-half cent being rounded upward) in respect of such fraction of a share in an amount equal to the same fractional interest of the reported last sales price (as defined in
Section 13.05(e)) of the Common Shares on the Trading Day (as defined in Section 13.05(e)) next preceding the day of conversion.

Section 13.7.Preservation of Conversion Rights upon Consolidation, Merger, Sale or Conveyance. In case of any consolidation of
the Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), or in the case of any sale or transfer
of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the corporation formed by such consolidation or the corporation into which the Company shall have been merged or the corporation which shall
have acquired such assets, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to the Trustee, a supplemental indenture, in accordance with the provisions of Articles 8 and 9 as they relate to supplemental
indentures, providing that the Holder of each Security then Outstanding of a Series which was convertible into Common Shares shall have the right thereafter to convert such Security into
the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property, including cash, receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer by a holder of the number of Common Shares of the
Company into which such Securities might have been converted immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. Such supplemental indenture shall conform to the provisions of the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939 as then in effect and shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article 13. Neither
the Trustee nor any conversion agent shall have any liability or responsibility for determining the correctness of any provision contained in any such supplemental indenture relating either to the
kind or amount of shares of stock or other securities or property receivable by Holders of the Securities upon the conversion of their Securities after any such consolidation, merger, sale or
transfer, or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and, subject to the provisions of Section 313 of

46

---

the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, may accept as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in relying upon, an Officers' Certificate with respect thereto and
an Opinion of Counsel with respect to legal matters related thereto. If in the case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, the stock or other securities and property receivable by a
Holder of the Securities includes stock or other securities and property of a corporation other than the successor or purchasing corporation, then such supplemental indenture shall also be executed by
such other corporation and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holders of the Securities as the Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary. The above
provisions of this Section 13.07 shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or transfers.

Section 13.8.Notice to Holders of the Securities of a Series Prior to Taking Certain Types of Action. With respect to the
Securities of any Series, in case:

(a) the
Company shall authorize the issuance to all holders of Common Shares of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of its capital stock or of any
other right;

(b) the
Company shall authorize the distribution to all holders of Common Shares of evidences of indebtedness or assets (except for cash dividends or distributions paid
from retained earnings of the Company);

(c) of
any subdivision or combination of Common Shares or of any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party and for which approval by the shareholders of
the Company is required, or of the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

(d) of
the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then the Company shall cause to be filed with the Trustee and at the office
or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of Securities of such Series pursuant to Section 3.02, and shall cause to be mailed
to the Holders of Securities of such Series, at their last addresses as they shall appear on the Security register of the Company, at least ten days prior to the applicable record date hereinafter
specified, a notice stating (i) the date as of which the holders of Common Shares to be entitled to receive any such rights, warrants or distribution are to be determined, or (ii) the
date on which any such subdivision, combination, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding up or other action is expected to become effective, and the date as of which
it is expected that holders of record of Common Shares shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such subdivision, combination,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding up or other action. The failure to give the notice required by this Section 13.08 or any defect therein shall not affect
the legality or validity of any distribution, right, warrant, subdivision, combination, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding up or other action, or the vote upon
any of the foregoing.

Section 13.9.Covenant to Reserve Shares for Issuance on Conversion of Securities. The Company covenants that at all times it
will reserve and keep available out of each class of its authorized Common Shares, free from preemptive rights, solely for the purpose of issue upon conversion of Securities of any Series as herein
provided, such number of Common Shares as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of all Outstanding Securities of such Series. The Company covenants that all Common Shares which shall be so
issuable shall, when issued or delivered, be duly and validly issued Common Shares into which Securities of such Series are convertible, and shall be fully paid and nonassessable, free of all liens
and charges and not subject to preemptive rights and that, upon conversion, the appropriate capital stock accounts of the Company will be duly credited.

Section 13.10.Compliance with Governmental Requirements. The Company covenants that if any Common Shares required to be
reserved for purposes of conversion of Securities hereunder require registration or listing with or approval of any governmental authority under any Federal or State law, pursuant to the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as

47

---

amended, or any national or regional securities exchange on which the Common Shares are listed at the time of delivery of any Common Shares, before such shares may be issued upon conversion, the
Company will use its best efforts to cause such shares to be duly registered, listed or approved, as the case may be.

Section 13.11.Payment of Taxes Upon Certificates for Shares Issued upon Conversion. The issuance of certificates for Common
Shares upon the conversion of Securities shall be made without charge to the converting Holders for any tax (including, without limitation, all documentary and stamp taxes) in respect of the issuance
and delivery of such certificates, and such certificates shall be issued in the respective names of, or in such names as may be directed by, the holders of the Securities converted; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate in a name other than that of the
Holder of the Security converted, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificate unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have
paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

Section 13.12. Trustee's Duties with Respect to Conversion Provisions. The Trustee and any conversion agent shall have no duty,
responsibility or liability to any Holder to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the conversion rate, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment
when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture (or whether such supplemental indenture need be entered into) provided to be employed, in making the same.
Neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent shall be accountable with respect to the registration under securities laws, listing, validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Common Shares, or of
any other securities or property, which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Security, and neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent makes any representation with
respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to make any cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of stock or stock
certificates or other securities or property upon the surrender of any Security for the purpose of conversion; and the Trustee and any conversion agent, subject to the provisions of Section 313
of the TIA, shall not be responsible for any failure of the Company to comply with any of the covenants of the Company contained in this Article 13.

Section 13.13.Conversion of Securities into Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Article 13, the Company may issue Securities that are convertible into Preferred Shares, including Preferred Shares convertible into Common Shares, in which case all terms and conditions
relating to the conversion of Securities into Preferred Shares, including any terms similar to those provided in Sections 13.01 through 13.12, shall be as provided in or pursuant to an appropriate
resolution of the Board of Directors or in any indenture supplemental hereto or as otherwise contemplated by Section 2.03.
