(21) any other terms of the series (which terms shall not be prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture). 

All Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and except as may otherwise be provided in or
pursuant to the Board Resolution referred to above and (subject to Section 2.03) set forth, or determined in the manner provided, in the Officers’ Certificate or Company Order referred to above or in any such indenture supplemental hereto.

 If any of the terms of the series are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of an appropriate
record of that action together with that Board Resolution shall be set forth in an Officers’ Certificate or certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the
Officers’ Certificate or Company Order setting forth the terms of the series. 
  

	Section 2.02	Denominations. 

 The
Securities of each series shall be issuable in such denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by Section 2.01. In the absence of any such provisions with respect to the Securities of any series, the Securities of that series
denominated in Dollars shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiples thereof. 
  

	Section 2.03	Forms Generally. 

 The
Securities of each series shall be in fully registered form and in substantially the form or forms (including temporary or permanent global form) established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution or in one or more indentures supplemental hereto. The
Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, securities exchange rule, the Company’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other similar governing documents, agreements to which the Company is subject, if any, or
usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company). A copy of the Board Resolution establishing the form or forms of Securities of any series shall be delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the
delivery of the Company Order contemplated by Section 2.04 for the authentication and delivery of those Securities. 
 The
definitive Securities of each series shall be printed, lithographed or engraved on steel engraved borders or may be produced in any other manner, all as determined by the Officers executing those Securities, as evidenced by their execution thereof.


  
 9 








 The Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be in substantially the following
form: 
 “This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned
Indenture. 
  

			
	  
	 	, as Trustee


 
			
		
	By:	 	  

		 	Authorized Officer”.


  

	Section 2.04	Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. 

 Two Officers of the Company shall sign the Securities of each series on behalf of the Company by manual or facsimile signature. The Company’s seal, if any, shall be impressed, affixed, imprinted or
reproduced on the Securities and may be in facsimile form. 
 If an Officer of the Company whose signature is on a Security no
longer holds that office at the time the Security is authenticated, the Security shall be valid nevertheless. 
 A Security
shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of an authorized signatory of the Trustee, which signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security
has been authenticated under this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security has been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company delivers that Security to the Trustee for
cancellation as provided in Section 2.13 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 this Indenture that Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series
executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver those Securities for original issue on a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of those Securities or pursuant to such procedures
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee as may be specified from time to time by Company Order. That order shall specify the amount of the Securities to be authenticated, the date on which the original issue of Securities is to be authenticated, the
name or names of the initial Holder or Holders and any other terms of the Securities of that series not otherwise determined. If provided for in those procedures, that Company Order may authorize (1) authentication and delivery of Securities of
that series for original issue from time to time, with certain terms (including, without limitation, the Maturity date or dates, original issue date or dates and interest rate or rates) that differ from Security to Security and (2) may
authorize authentication and delivery pursuant to oral or electronic instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agent, which instructions shall be promptly confirmed in writing. 

  
 10 









 If the form or terms of the Securities of the series have been established in or pursuant to
one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by Section 2.01, in authenticating those Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to those Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive (in
addition to the Company Order referred to above and the other documents required by Section 11.04), and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying on, 

(a) an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Board Resolution and, if applicable, an appropriate record of any action taken
pursuant thereto, as contemplated by the last paragraph of Section 2.01; and 
 (b) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that: 
 (i) if the form of those Securities has been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution, as is
permitted by Section 2.01, that such form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (ii) if the terms of those Securities have been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution, as is permitted by Section 2.01, that such terms have been established in conformity with the
provisions of this Indenture; and 
 (iii) those Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and
issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in that Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as the
enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws in effect from time to time affecting the rights of creditors generally, and the application of
general principles of equity (regardless of whether that enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 

If all the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver an Officers’ Certificate
and Opinion of Counsel at the time of issuance of each such Security, but that Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the first Security of the series to be issued. 

The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate those Securities if the issuance of those Securities pursuant to this Indenture would
affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
 The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. Unless limited by the terms of that appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities
whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by that agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company.

 Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

  
 11 










	Section 2.05	Registrar and Paying Agent. 

 The Company shall maintain an office or agency for each series of Securities where Securities of that series may be presented for registration of transfer or exchange (“Registrar”) and an office
or agency where Securities of that series may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities of that series and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more
co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar, and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. 

The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. The
agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to that Agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar
without notice to any Holder. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 

The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent. 

 

	Section 2.06	Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

 With respect to each series of Securities, the Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Holders of
Securities of that series or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to Securities of that series and will notify the Trustee of any
default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. The Company at any time may require a
Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon payment over to the Trustee and upon accounting for any funds disbursed, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company)
shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company acts as Paying Agent with respect to a series of Securities, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders of
Securities of that series all money held by it as Paying Agent. Each Paying Agent shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 317(b). 
  

	Section 2.07	Holder Lists. 

 The
Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders of each series of Securities and shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a). If the Trustee
is not the Registrar with respect to a series of Securities, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least five Business Days before each Interest Payment Date with respect to that series of Securities, and at such other times as the Trustee may
request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders of the Securities of that series, and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a).


  
 12 










	Section 2.08	Transfer and Exchange. 


Except as set forth in Section 2.17 or as may be provided pursuant to Section 2.01, when Securities of any series are presented
to the Registrar with the request to register the transfer of those Securities or to exchange those Securities for an equal principal amount of Securities of the same series of like tenor and of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall
register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its requirements and the requirements of this Indenture for those transactions are met; provided, however, that the Securities presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or by his attorney, duly authorized in writing, on which instruction the
Registrar can rely. 
 To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate Securities at the Registrar’s written request and submission of the Securities (other than Global Securities). No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly
permitted herein), but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable on exchanges
pursuant to Section 2.12, 3.07 or 9.05). The Trustee shall authenticate Securities in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.04. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture to the contrary, the Company shall not be required
to register the transfer or exchange of (a) any Security selected for redemption in whole or in part pursuant to Article III, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part or (b) any Security during the period
beginning 15 Business Days before the mailing of notice of any offer to repurchase Securities of the series required pursuant to the terms thereof or of redemption of Securities of a series to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the
date of mailing. 
  

	Section 2.09	Replacement Securities. 


If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, or if the Holder of a Security claims that the Security has been destroyed, lost
or stolen and the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of that Security, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security of the same series if the
Trustee’s requirements are met. If any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay that Security. If required by
the Trustee or the Company, the Holder must furnish an indemnity bond that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent or any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may
suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Security. 

Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Company. 

  
 13 










	Section 2.10	Outstanding Securities. 


The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those
delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Security effected by the Trustee hereunder and those described in this Section 2.10 as not outstanding. 

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.09, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it
that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser. 
 If the principal amount of any Security is considered paid under
Section 4.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. 
 A Security does not cease to be
outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security. 
  

	Section 2.11	Original Issue Discount, Foreign-Currency Denominated and Treasury Securities. 


In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, amendment, supplement,
waiver or consent, (a) the principal amount of an Original Issue Discount Security shall be the principal amount thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of that determination upon acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to
Section 6.02, (b) the principal amount of a Security denominated in a foreign currency shall be the Dollar equivalent, as determined by the Company by reference to the noon buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers for that
currency, as that rate is certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the “Exchange Rate”) on the date of original issuance of that Security, of the principal amount (or, in the case of an Original Issue
Discount Security, the Dollar equivalent, as determined by the Company by reference to the Exchange Rate on the date of original issuance of that Security, of the amount determined as provided in (a) above), of that Security and
(c) Securities owned by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities or any Affiliate of the Company or of that other obligor shall be disregarded, except that, for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in
relying on any such direction, amendment, supplement, waiver or consent, only Securities that the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. 
  

	Section 2.12	Temporary Securities. 


Until definitive Securities of any series are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary
Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities, but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the
Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities in exchange for temporary Securities. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities. 

  
 14 










	Section 2.13	Cancellation. 

 The
Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or redemption or for
credit against any sinking fund payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, redemption, replacement or cancellation or for credit against any sinking fund. Unless the Company shall
direct in writing that canceled Securities be returned to it, after written notice to the Company all canceled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with the usual disposal procedures of the Trustee, and the Trustee shall
maintain a record of their disposal. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that have been paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

 

	Section 2.14	Payments; Defaulted Interest. 

 Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 2.01 with respect to the Securities of any series, interest (except defaulted interest) on any Security that is payable, and is punctually paid or
duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Persons who are registered Holders of that Security at the close of business on the record date next preceding that Interest Payment Date, even if those Securities are canceled
after that record date and on or before that Interest Payment Date. Unless otherwise provided with respect to the Securities of any series, the Company will pay the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on and any Additional Amounts with
respect to the Securities in Dollars. Those amounts shall be payable at the offices of the Trustee, provided that at the option of the Company, the Company may pay those amounts (1) by wire transfer with respect to Global Securities or
(2) by check payable in that money mailed to a Holder’s registered address with respect to any Securities. 
 If the
Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Securities of any series, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest on the defaulted interest, in each case at the rate provided in the Securities
of that series and in Section 4.01. The Company may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. At least 15 days before any special record date selected by the Company, the Company (or the
Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Company upon 20 days’ prior written notice from the Company setting forth that record date and the interest amount to be paid) shall mail to Holders of any such series of Securities a notice
that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of that interest to be paid. 
  

	Section 2.15	Persons Deemed Owners. 


The Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent may treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the
owner of that Security for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of, premium (if any) or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to that Security and for all other purposes. None of the Company, the Trustee, any Agent or any
authenticating agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 

  
 15 










	Section 2.16	Computation of Interest. 


Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.01 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series
shall be computed on the basis of a year comprising twelve 30-day months. 
  

	Section 2.17	Global Securities; Book-Entry Provisions. 

 If Securities of a series are issuable in global form as a Global Security, as contemplated by Section 2.01, then, notwithstanding clause (10) of Section 2.01 and the provisions of
Section 2.02, any such Global Security shall represent those of the outstanding Securities of that 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 or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges or redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the
amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee (i) in such manner and upon instructions given by such Person or Persons as shall be specified in that Security or in
a Company Order to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.04 or (ii) otherwise in accordance with written instructions or such other written form of instructions as is customary for the Depositary for that Security, from that
Depositary or its nominee on behalf of any Person having a beneficial interest in that Global Security. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.04 and, if applicable, Section 2.12, the Trustee shall deliver and redeliver any Security in
permanent global form in the manner and upon instructions given by the Person or Persons specified in that Security or in the applicable Company Order. With respect to the Securities of any series that are represented by a Global Security, the
Company authorizes the execution and delivery by the Trustee of a letter of representations or other similar agreement or instrument in the form customarily provided for by the Depositary appointed with respect to that Global Security. Any Global
Security may be deposited with the Depositary or its nominee, or may remain in the custody of the Trustee or the Security Custodian therefor pursuant to a FAST Balance Certificate Agreement or similar agreement between the Trustee and the
Depositary. If a Company Order 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. 
 Members of, or participants in, the Depositary
(“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depositary, or the Trustee or the Security Custodian as its custodian, or under that Global Security, and the
Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Custodian and any agent of the Company, the Trustee or the Security Custodian as the absolute owner of that Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, (i) the registered holder of a Global Security of any series may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action that a Holder of
Securities of that series is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Securities of that series and (ii) nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or the Security Custodian or any agent of the Company, the Trustee, or the
Security Custodian from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or shall impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the
exercise of the rights of a beneficial owner of any Security. 

  
 16 









 Notwithstanding Section 2.08, and except as otherwise provided pursuant to
Section 2.01, transfers of a Global Security shall be limited to transfers of that Global Security in whole, but not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a Global Security
may be transferred in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depositary. Securities of any series shall be transferred to all beneficial owners of a Global Security of that series in exchange for their beneficial interests in that Global
Security if, and only if, either (1) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for that Global Security and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of that notice,
(2) an Event of Default has occurred with respect to that series and is continuing and the Registrar has received a request from the Depositary to issue Securities of that series in lieu of all or a portion of that Global Security (in which
case the Company shall deliver Securities of that series within 30 days of that request) or (3) the Company determines not to have the Securities of that series represented by a Global Security. 

In connection with any transfer of a portion of the beneficial interests in a Global Security to beneficial owners pursuant to this
Section 2.17, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of the Global Security in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Global Security to be
transferred, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee on receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Securities shall authenticate and deliver, one or more Securities of the same series of like tenor and amount.

 In connection with the transfer of all the beneficial interests in a Global Security of any series to beneficial owners
pursuant to this Section 2.17, the Global Security shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by the
Depositary in exchange for its beneficial interest in the Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of Securities of that series of authorized denominations. 
 Neither the Company nor the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of, Securities by the Depositary, or for maintaining,
supervising or reviewing any records of the Depositary relating to those Securities. Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay by the related Global Security Holder or the Depositary in identifying the beneficial owners, and
each such Person may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, instructions from that Global Security Holder or the Depositary for all purposes (including with respect to the registration and delivery, and the respective principal
amounts, of the Securities to be issued). 
 The provisions of the last sentence of the third paragraph of Section 2.04
shall apply to any Global Security if that Global Security was never issued and sold by the Company and the Company delivers to the Trustee the Global Security 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 cancellation or reduction in the principal amount of Securities represented thereby, together with the written statement contemplated by the last sentence of the third paragraph of
Section 2.04. 

  
 17 









 Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 2.03 and 2.14, unless otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 2.01 with respect to Securities of any series, payment of principal of and premium (if any) and interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to any Global Security shall be made to the Person or Persons specified
therein. 
 ARTICLE III 
 REDEMPTION 
  

	Section 3.01	Applicability of Article. 


Securities of any series that are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except
as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.01 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article III. 
  

	Section 3.02	Notice to the Trustee. 


If the Company elects to redeem Securities of any series pursuant to this Indenture, it shall notify the Trustee of the Redemption Date
and principal amount of Securities of that series to be redeemed. The Company shall so notify the Trustee at least 40 days before the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) by delivering to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate stating that the redemption will comply with the provisions of this Indenture and of the Securities of that series. Any such notice may be canceled at any time prior to the mailing of that notice of redemption to any
Holder of the Securities of that series and shall thereupon be void and of no effect. 
  

	Section 3.03	Selection of Securities To Be Redeemed. 

 If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless all of the Securities of that series of a specified tenor are to be redeemed), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be
selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the outstanding Securities of that series (and tenor) not previously called for redemption, either pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem
fair and appropriate. That redemption may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of
that series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series or of the principal amount of Global Securities of that series. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Registrar in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal
amount thereof to be redeemed. 
 For purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating
to redemption of Securities of any series shall relate, in the case of any of the Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount thereof which has been or is to be redeemed. 

  
 18 










	Section 3.04	Notice of Redemption. 


Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the
Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities of a series to be redeemed, at the address of that Holder appearing in the register of Securities for that series maintained by the Registrar. 

All notices of redemption shall identify the Securities to be redeemed and shall state: 

(1) the Redemption Date; 
 (2) the Redemption Price; 
 (3) that, unless the Company defaults
in making the redemption payment, interest on Securities called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date, and the only remaining right of the Holders of those Securities is to receive payment of the Redemption Price on
surrender to the Paying Agent of the Securities redeemed; 
 (4) if any Security is to be redeemed in part, the
portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and that on and after the Redemption Date, on surrender for cancellation of that Security to the Paying Agent, a new Security or Securities in the aggregate principal amount equal to the
unredeemed portion thereof will be issued without charge to the Holder; 
 (5) that Securities called for
redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price and the name and address of the Paying Agent; 
 (6) that the redemption is for a sinking or analogous fund, if that is the case; and 
 (7) the CUSIP number, if any, relating to those Securities. 
 Notice of redemption
of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s written request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. 

 

	Section 3.05	Effect of Notice of Redemption. 

 Once notice of redemption is mailed, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, those Securities called
for redemption shall be paid at the Redemption Price, but interest installments whose maturity is on or prior to that Redemption Date will be payable on the relevant Interest Payment Dates to the Holders of record at the close of business on the
relevant record dates specified pursuant to Section 2.01. 

  
 19 










	Section 3.06	Deposit of Redemption Price. 

 On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or the Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in
Section 2.06) an amount of money in same day funds sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to, the Securities
or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date, other than Securities or portions thereof called for redemption on that date which have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation. 

If the Company complies with the preceding paragraph, then, unless the Company defaults in the payment of that Redemption Price, interest
on the Securities to be redeemed will cease to accrue on and after the applicable Redemption Date, whether or not those Securities are presented for payment, and the Holders of those Securities shall have no further rights with respect to those
Securities except for the right to receive the Redemption Price on surrender of those Securities. If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid on surrender thereof for redemption, the principal of and premium, if any, any Additional
Amounts, and, to the extent lawful, accrued interest thereon shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate specified pursuant to Section 2.01 or provided in the Securities or, in the case of Original Issue Discount
Securities, their initial yield to maturity. 
  

	Section 3.07	Securities Redeemed or Purchased in Part. 

 Upon surrender to the Paying Agent of a Security to be redeemed in part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of that Security without service charge a
new Security or Securities, of the same series and of any authorized denomination as requested by that Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to, and in exchange for, the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered that is
not redeemed. 
  

	Section 3.08	Purchase of Securities. 


Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.01, the Company and any Affiliate of the Company may at any time purchase or
otherwise acquire Securities in the open market or by private agreement. Any such acquisition shall not operate as or be deemed for any purpose to be a redemption of the indebtedness represented by those Securities. Any Securities purchased or
acquired by the Company may be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and, on that cancellation, the indebtedness represented thereby shall be deemed to be satisfied. Section 2.13 shall apply to all Securities so delivered. 

 

	Section 3.09	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 the
minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment.” Unless otherwise provided by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund
payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 3.10. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of that series and by this Article III.


  
 20 










	Section 3.10	Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 

 The Company may deliver outstanding Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) and may apply as a credit Securities of a series that have been redeemed either at the election
of the Company pursuant to the terms of those Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of those Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment
with respect to the Securities of that series required to be made pursuant to the terms of that series of Securities; provided that those Securities have not been previously so credited. Those Securities shall be received and credited for that
purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in those Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund, and the amount of that sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 

 

	Section 3.11	Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 

 Not less than 45 days prior (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate of the Company specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, that is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion
thereof, if any, that is to be satisfied by delivery of or by crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 3.10 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Failure of the Company to timely deliver that
Officers’ Certificate and Securities specified in this paragraph, if any, shall not constitute a default but shall constitute the election of the Company (i) that the mandatory sinking fund payment for that 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 that series in respect thereof and (ii) that the Company will make no optional sinking fund payment with respect to that
series as provided in this Section. 
 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 the Dollar equivalent thereof based on the applicable Exchange Rate on the date of original
issue of the applicable Securities) or a lesser sum if the Company shall so request with respect to the Securities of any particular series, that cash shall be applied on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date to the redemption of Securities
of that series at the sinking fund redemption price together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption. If that amount shall be $100,000 (or the Dollar equivalent thereof as aforesaid) or less and the Company makes no such request, then
it shall be carried over until a sum in excess of $100,000 (or the Dollar equivalent thereof as aforesaid) is available. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed on that
sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 3.03 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 3.04. That notice having been duly
given, the redemption of those Securities shall be made on the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 3.05, 3.06 and 3.07. 

  
 21 









 ARTICLE IV 
 COVENANTS 
  

	Section 4.01	Payment of Securities. 


The Company shall pay the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of each
series on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities of that series and in this Indenture. Principal, premium, interest and any Additional Amounts shall be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, other than the Company or a
Subsidiary of the Company, holds on that date money deposited by the Company designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium (if any), interest and any Additional Amounts then due. 

The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal of and
premium (if any) on Securities of any series, at a rate equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Securities of that series to the extent lawful; and it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any
Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest on and any overdue payments of Additional Amounts with respect to Securities of that series (without regard to any applicable grace period) at the same rate to the extent lawful. 

 

	Section 4.02	Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

 The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent) where Securities of that
series may be presented for registration of transfer or exchange, where Securities of that series may be presented for payment and where notices and demands to or on the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be
served. Unless otherwise designated by the Company by written notice to the Trustee, that office or agency shall be the office of the Trustee in The City of New York, which on the date hereof is located at
            . The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of that office or agency. If at any time the Company shall
fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, those presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be
presented or surrendered for any or all those purposes and may from time to time rescind those designations; provided, however, that no such esignation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or
agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for those purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.


  
 22 










	Section 4.03	SEC Reports; Financial Statements. 

 (a) The Company shall file with the Trustee, within 15 days after it files the same with the SEC, copies of the annual reports and the information, documents and other reports (or copies of those portions
of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations prescribe) that the Company is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. The Company shall also comply with the provisions of TIA
Section 314(a). 
 (b) If the Company is not subject to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act,
the Company shall furnish to all Holders of Rule 144A Securities and prospective purchasers of Rule 144A Securities designated by the Holders of Rule 144A Securities, promptly on their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to
Rule 144A(d)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. 
  

	Section 4.04	Compliance Certificate. 

 (1) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, a statement signed by an Officer of the Company, which need not constitute an Officers’
Certificate, complying with TIA Section 314(a)(4) and stating that, in the course of performance by the signing Officer of the Company of his or her duties as such Officer of the Company, he or she would normally obtain knowledge of the
keeping, observing, performing and fulfilling by the Company of its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating that, to the best of his or her knowledge, the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant
contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions hereof (or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of
which that Officer may have knowledge and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto). 
 (2) The Company shall, so long as Securities of any series are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, promptly on any Officer of the Company becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default under this
Indenture, an Officers’ Certificate specifying that Default or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
  

	Section 4.05	Existence. 

 Subject to
Article V hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence and the existence of each of its Subsidiaries and all rights (charter and statutory) of the Company and its
Subsidiaries, provided that the Company shall not be required to preserve the existence of any Subsidiary of the Company or any such right if the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the
business of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole and that the loss thereof would not have a material adverse effect on the business, operations, assets or financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole and
would not have any material adverse effect on the payment and performance of the obligations of the Company under the Securities and this Indenture. 

  
 23 










	Section 4.06	Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. 

 The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist on, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or
extension law or any usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on the Securities as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force,
or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) the Company hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or
impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
  

	Section 4.07	Additional Amounts. 

 If
the Securities of a series expressly provide for the payment of Additional Amounts, the Company will pay to the Holder of any Security of that series Additional Amounts as expressly provided therein. Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in
any context, the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on, or in respect of, any Security of any series or the net proceeds received from the sale or exchange of any Security of any series, that mention shall be deemed to include
mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in this Section 4.07 to the extent that, in that context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.07, and
express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where that express mention is not made. 

Unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.01 with respect to Securities of any series, if the Securities of a series provide
for the payment of Additional Amounts, at least ten days prior to the first Interest Payment Date with respect to that series of Securities (or if the Securities of that series will not bear interest prior to Maturity, the first day on which a
payment of principal and any premium is made), and at least ten days prior to each date of payment of principal and any premium or interest if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned Officers’
Certificate, the Company shall furnish the Trustee and the Company’s principal Paying Agent or Paying Agents, if other than the Trustee, with an Officers’ Certificate instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent or Paying Agents whether
that payment of principal of and any premium or interest on the Securities of that series shall be made to Holders of Securities of that series who are United States Aliens without withholding for or on account of any tax, assessment or other
governmental charge described in the Securities of that series. If any such withholding shall be required, then that Officers’ Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to be withheld on those payments to those Holders
of Securities, and the Company will pay to that Paying Agent the Additional Amounts required by this Section. The Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for and to hold them harmless against any loss, liability or expense
reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by any of them in reliance on any Officers’ Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section 4.07.

 ARTICLE V 
 SUCCESSORS 
  

	Section 5.01	Limitations on Mergers, Consolidations and Other Transactions. 

 The Company shall not, in any transaction or series of related transactions, consolidate with any other Person into, or merge into, any other Person, or sell, lease, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose
of its assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, unless: 
 (1) the Person formed by that consolidation
or into which the Company is merged, or to which that sale, lease, conveyance, transfer or other disposition shall be made (collectively, the “Successor”), expressly assumes by supplemental indenture the due and punctual payment of the
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on and Additional Amounts with respect to all the Securities and the performance of the Company’s covenants and obligations under this Indenture and the Securities; 

(2) immediately after giving effect to that transaction or series of related transactions, no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing; and 
 (3) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers’
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that the transaction and that supplemental indenture comply with this Indenture. 
  

	Section 5.02	Successor Person Substituted. 

 Upon any consolidation or merger of the Company or any sale, lease, conveyance, transfer or other disposition of the assets of the Company substantially as an entirety in accordance with
Section 5.01, any Successor formed by that consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged or to which that sale, lease, conveyance, transfer or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise
every right and power of the Company under this Indenture and the Securities with the same effect as if that Successor had been named as the Company herein and the predecessor Company, in the case of a sale, conveyance, transfer or other
disposition, shall be released from all obligations under this Indenture and the Securities. 
 ARTICLE VI 

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 
  

	Section 6.01	Events of Default. 


Unless either inapplicable to a particular series or specifically deleted or modified in or pursuant to the supplemental indenture or
Board Resolution establishing that series of Securities or in the form of Security for that series, an “Event of Default,” wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any series, occurs if: 

(1) the Company defaults in the payment of interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Security of that
series when the same becomes due and payable and that default continues for a period of 30 days; 

  
 25 









 (2) the Company defaults in the payment of (A) the principal of any
Security of that series at its Maturity or (B) premium (if any) on any Security of that series when the same becomes due and payable; 
 (3) the Company defaults in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as due by the terms of a Security of that series, and that default continues for a period of 30 days; 

(4) the Company fails to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements in, or provisions of, the Securities of that
series or this Indenture (other than an agreement, covenant or provision that has expressly been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of one or more series of Securities other than that series) which shall not have been remedied within
the specified period after written notice, as specified in the last paragraph of this Section 6.01; 
 (5)
the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: 
 (A) commences a voluntary case,

 (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, 

(C) consents to the appointment of a Bankruptcy Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, or

 (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; 

(6) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that remains unstayed and in
effect for 90 days and that: 
 (A) is for relief against the Company as debtor in an involuntary case,

 (B) appoints a Bankruptcy Custodian of the Company or a Bankruptcy Custodian for all or substantially all of
the property of the Company, or 
 (C) orders the liquidation of the Company; or 

(7) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series occurs. 

The term “Bankruptcy Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.


  
 26 









 The Trustee shall not be deemed to know or have notice of a Default unless a Trust Officer
at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee receives written notice at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee of that Default with specific reference to that Default. 
 When a Default is cured, it ceases. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
this Section 6.01, if the principal of, premium (if any) or interest on or Additional Amounts with respect to any Security is payable in a currency or currencies (including a composite currency) other than Dollars and such currency or
currencies are not available to the Company for making payment thereof due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Company (a “Conversion Event”), the Company will be entitled to satisfy its
obligations to Holders of the Securities by making that payment in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar equivalent of the amount payable in such other currency, as determined by the Company by reference to the Exchange Rate on the date of that
payment, or, if that rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Exchange Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.01, any payment made under such circumstances in Dollars where the required
payment is in a currency other than Dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture. 
 Promptly after the
occurrence of a Conversion Event, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Trustee; and the Trustee, promptly after receipt of that notice, shall give notice thereof in the manner provided in Section 11.02 to the Holders. Promptly
after the making of any payment in Dollars as a result of a Conversion Event, the Company shall give notice in the manner provided in Section 11.02 to the Holders, setting forth the applicable Exchange Rate and describing the calculation of
those payments. 
 A Default under clause (4) or (7) of this Section 6.01 is not an Event of Default until the
Trustee notifies the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of the series affected by that Default (or, in the case of a Default under clause (4) of this Section 6.01, if outstanding
Securities of other series are affected by that Default, then at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities so affected) notify the Company and the Trustee, of the Default, and the Company fails to cure the Default within 90
days after receipt of the notice. The notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that the notice is a “Notice of Default.” 
  

	Section 6.02	Acceleration. 

 If an
Event of Default with respect to any Securities of any series at the time outstanding (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of Section 6.01 hereof) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the
Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of the series affected by that default (or, in the case of an Event of Default described in clause (4) of Section 6.01, if outstanding
Securities of other series are affected by that Default, then at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities so affected) by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of (or, if any of those Securities are
Original Issue Discount Securities, that portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) and all accrued and unpaid interest on all then outstanding Securities of that series or of all series,


  
 27 









 
as the case may be, to be due and payable. Upon any such declaration, the amounts due and payable on those Securities shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in
clause (5) or (6) of Section 6.01 hereof occurs, those amounts shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration, notice or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. The Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of the series affected by that default or all series, as the case may be, by written notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences (other than nonpayment of principal of
or premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities) if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series (or of all series,
as the case may be) have been cured or waived, except nonpayment of principal, premium, interest or any Additional Amounts that has become due solely because of the acceleration. 

 

	Section 6.03	Other Remedies. 

 If an
Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the Securities of that series or to enforce
the performance of any provision of the Securities of that series or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding
with respect to Securities of any series even if it does not possess any of the Securities of that series or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing
on an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 

 

	Section 6.04	Waiver of Defaults. 


Subject to Sections 6.07 and 9.02, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series or of
all series (acting as one class) by notice to the Trustee may waive an existing or past Default or Event of Default with respect to that series or all series, as the case may be, and its consequences (including waivers obtained in connection with a
tender offer or exchange offer for Securities of that series or all series or a solicitation of consents in respect of Securities of that series or all series, provided that in each case that offer or solicitation is made to all Holders of then
outstanding Securities of that series or all series (but the terms of that offer or solicitation may vary from series to series)), except (1) a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or
interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Security or (2) a continued Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended or supplemented without the consent of each Holder affected. Upon any such
waiver, that Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right
consequent thereon. 

  
 28 










	Section 6.05	Control by Majority. 


With respect to Securities of any series, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of that series
may direct in writing the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it relating to or arising under an Event of Default described in clause (1), (2),
(3) or (7) of Section 6.01, and with respect to all Securities, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of all the then outstanding Securities affected may direct in writing the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any rust or power conferred on it not relating to or arising under such an Event of Default. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with applicable law
or this Indenture, that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders, or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
Trustee that is not inconsistent with that direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion from Holders directing the Trustee against all losses and expenses
caused by taking or not taking that action. 
  

	Section 6.06	Limitations on Suits. 


Subject to Section 6.07 hereof, a Holder of a Security of any series may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the
Securities of that series only if: 
 (1) the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of
Default with respect to that series; 
 (2) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then
outstanding Securities of that series make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
 (3) such
Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and 

(5) during that 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of that series do not give
the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request. 
 A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another
Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder. 
  

	Section 6.07	Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. 

 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Security to receive payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect
to that Security, on or after the respective due dates expressed in that Security, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after those respective dates, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected
without the consent of the Holder. 

  
 29 










	Section 6.08	Collection Suit by Trustee. 

 If an Event of Default specified in clause (1) or (2) of Section 6.01 hereof occurs and is continuing with respect to Securities of any series, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment
in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the amount of principal, premium (if any), interest and any Additional Amounts remaining unpaid on the Securities of that series, and interest on overdue principal and
premium, if any, and, to the extent lawful, interest on overdue interest, and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
  

	Section 6.09	Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

 The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents and to take such actions, including participating as a member, voting or otherwise, of any committee of creditors, as
may be necessary or advisable to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceeding
relative to the Company or its creditors or properties and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any Bankruptcy Custodian in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make those payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of those payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be
paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties which the Holders of the Securities may be entitled to receive in that proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or
otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the
rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
  

	Section 6.10	Priorities. 

 If the
Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article VI, it shall pay out the money in the following order: 
 First: to the
Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07; 

  
 30 









 Second: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities in respect of which or for
the benefit of which that money has been collected, for principal, premium (if any), interest and any Additional Amounts ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on those Securities for principal,
premium (if any), interest and any Additional Amounts, respectively; and 
 Third: to the Company. 

The Trustee, on prior written notice to the Company, may fix record dates and payment dates for any payment to Holders pursuant to this
Article VI. 
 To the fullest extent allowed under applicable law, if for the purpose of obtaining a judgment against the
Company in any court it is necessary to convert the sum due in respect of the principal of, premium (if any) or interest on or Additional Amounts with respect to the securities of any series (the “Required Currency”) into a currency in
which a judgment will be rendered (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in The City of New York the Required Currency with
the Judgment Currency on the New York Business Day next preceding that on which final judgment is given. Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be liable for any shortfall nor shall it benefit from any windfall in payments to Holders of
Securities under this Section 6.10 caused by a change in exchange rates between the time the amount of a judgment against it is calculated as above and the time the Trustee converts the Judgment Currency into the Required Currency to make
payments under this Section to Holders of Securities, but payment of that judgment shall discharge all amounts owed by the Company on the claim or claims underlying that judgment. 

 

	Section 6.11	Undertaking for Costs. 


In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or
omitted by it as a trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder
pursuant to Section 6.07, or a suit by a Holder or Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series. 
 ARTICLE VII 
 TRUSTEE 

 

	Section 7.01	Duties of Trustee. 

 (a)
If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any series has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture with respect to the Securities of that series, and use the
same degree of care and skill in that exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. 

  
 31 









 (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of
any series: 
 (1) the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture
and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, on certificates or opinions
furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee shall examine those certificates and opinions to determine whether, on their face, they appear to conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

 The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own
willful misconduct, except that: 
 (1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of Section 7.01(b);

 (2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it
is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 
 (3) the Trustee shall not be
liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof. 
 (c) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to the provisions of this Section 7.01. 

(d) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee may
refuse to perform any duty or exercise any right or power unless it receives indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. 
 (e) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from
other funds except to the extent required by law. All money received by the Trustee with respect to Securities of any series shall, until applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium (if any) and interest
on and Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of that series. 
  

	Section 7.02	Rights of Trustee. 

 (a)
The Trustee may rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document. 

  
 32 









 (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require instruction, an
Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both to be provided. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on that instruction, Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The
Trustee may consult with counsel, and the written advice of that counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in
reliance thereon. 
 (c) The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any
agent appointed with due care. 
 (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith
which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers conferred on it by this Indenture. 
 (e) Unless otherwise
specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Company shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company. 
  

	Section 7.03	May Hold Securities. 

 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 any of its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with
like rights and duties. However, the Trustee is subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11. 
  

	Section 7.04	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 or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision hereof; it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying
Agent other than the Trustee; and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Securities other than its certificate of authentication. 

 

	Section 7.05	Notice of Defaults. 

 If a
Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any series occurs and is continuing and it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to Holders of Securities of that series a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90
days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium (if any) and interest on and Additional Amounts or any sinking fund installment with respect to the Securities of that series, the Trustee
may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders of Securities of that series. 

 

	Section 7.06	Reports by Trustee to Holders. 

 Within 60 days after each May 15 of each year after the execution of this Indenture, the Trustee shall mail to Holders of a series and the Company a brief report dated as of that reporting date that
complies with TIA Section 313(a); provided, however, that if no 

  
 33 









 
event described in TIA Section 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date with respect to a series, no report need be transmitted to Holders of that series.
The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports if and as required by TIA Sections 313(c) and 313(d). 
 A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders of a series of Securities shall be filed by the Company with the SEC and each securities exchange, if any, on which the Securities of that
series are listed. The Company shall notify the Trustee if and when any series of Securities is listed on any stock exchange. 
  

	Section 7.07	Compensation and Indemnity. 

 The Company agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any
law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company agrees to reimburse the Trustee on request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred by it. Those expenses shall include the reasonable compensation,
disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 
 The Company hereby indemnifies the Trustee against any
loss, liability or expense incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, except as set forth in the next paragraph. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim
for which it may seek indemnity. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel, and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of that counsel. The Company need
not pay for any settlement made without its consent. 
 The Company shall not be obligated to reimburse any expense or indemnify
against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee through negligence or bad faith. 
 To secure the payment obligations of
the Company in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of, premium (if any) and interest on and any
Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of any series. That lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(5) or (6) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to
constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
  

	Section 7.08	Replacement of Trustee. 


A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only on the successor Trustee’s
acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. 

  
 34 









 The Trustee may resign and be discharged at any time with respect to the Securities of one
or more series by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series may remove the Trustee with respect to the Securities of that series by so notifying the Trustee and the
Company. The Company may remove the Trustee if: 
  

	 	(1)	the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10; 

  

	 	(2)	the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law; 


 

	 	(3)	a Bankruptcy Custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 


 

	 	(4)	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 a successor
Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of those series and that at any time there shall be
only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series). Within one year after the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of that
series may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. 
 If a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of any series does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of
that series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of that series. 
 If the Trustee with respect to the Securities of a series fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Holder of Securities of that series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal
of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of that series. 
 In case of the
appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, each such 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 retiring Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders. 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 7.07. 
 In case of the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of one or more (but not all) series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto in which each successor Trustee shall accept that appointment and that (1) shall confer to


  
 35 









 
each successor Trustee all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of that successor Trustee relates,
(2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall confirm that all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is
not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than
one Trustee. Nothing herein or in that supplemental indenture shall constitute those Trustees co-trustees of the same trust, and each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder
administered by any other such Trustee. Upon the execution and delivery of that supplemental indenture, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein, and each such successor Trustee shall
have all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of that successor Trustee relates. On the request of the Company or any successor Trustee, that retiring
Trustee shall transfer to that successor Trustee all property held by that retiring Trustee as Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of that successor Trustee relates. 

Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee or Trustees pursuant to this Section 7.08, the obligations of the Company under
Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee or Trustees. 
 Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger,
etc. 
 Subject to Section 7.10, if the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially
all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee; provided, however, that in the case of a transfer of all or substantially all of its corporate trust
business to another corporation, the transferee corporation expressly assumes all of the Trustee’s liabilities hereunder. 

In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger,
conversion or consolidation to that authenticating Trustee may adopt that authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may
authenticate those Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all those cases those certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this
Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have. 
 Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. 

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United
States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and authorized under those laws to exercise corporate trust power, shall be subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State (or the District of Columbia) authority and shall have, or be
a Subsidiary of a bank or bank holding company having, a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 

  
 36 









 The Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA Sections
310(a)(1), 310(a)(2) and 310(a)(5). The Trustee is subject to and shall comply with the provisions of TIA Section 310(b) during the period of time required by this Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture shall prevent the Trustee from filing with
the SEC the application referred to in the penultimate paragraph of TIA Section 310(b). 
  

	Section 7.11	Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 

 The Trustee is subject to and shall comply with the provisions of 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 VIII 

DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE 
  

	Section 8.01	Termination of Company’s Obligations. 

 (a) This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the Securities of a series (except as to any surviving rights of conversion or of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities
expressly provided for herein and except that the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07, the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations under Section 8.03 and the rights, powers, protections and privileges accorded the
Trustee under Article VII shall survive), and the Trustee, on demand of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Securities of that series, when: 

(1) either 
 (A) all outstanding Securities of that series theretofore authenticated and issued (other than destroyed, lost or stolen Securities that have been replaced or paid) have been delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation; or 
 (B) all outstanding Securities of that series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation: 
 (i) have become due and payable, or 

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

(iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of
notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, and, in the case of 

  
 37 









 
clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as funds (immediately available to the Holders in the case of clause
(i)) in trust for that purpose (x) cash in an amount, or (y) Government Obligations, maturing as to principal and interest at such times and in such amounts as will ensure the availability of cash in an amount or (z) a combination
thereof, which will be sufficient, in the opinion (in the case of clauses (y) and (z)) of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge
the entire indebtedness on the Securities of that series for principal and any interest and any Additional Amounts to the date of that deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or for principal, premium, if any, interest
and any Additional Amounts to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be; or 
 (C) the Company has properly
fulfilled such other means of satisfaction and discharge as is specified, as contemplated by Section 2.01, to be applicable to the Securities of that series; 

(2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable by it hereunder with respect to the Securities of
that series; and 
 (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that all
conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Securities of that series have been complied with, together with an Opinion of Counsel to the same effect. 

Unless this Section 8.01(b) is specified as not being applicable to Securities of a series as contemplated by Section 2.01, the
Company may terminate certain of its obligations under this Indenture (“covenant defeasance”) with respect to the Securities of a series if: 
 (1) the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security
for and dedicated solely to the benefit of the Holders of Securities of that series, (i) money in the currency in which payment of the Securities of that series is to be made in an amount, or (ii) Government Obligations with respect to
that series, maturing as to principal and interest at such times and in such amounts as will ensure the availability of money in the currency in which payment of the Securities of that series is to be made in an amount or (iii) a combination
thereof, that is sufficient, in the opinion (in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii)) of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay, without
consideration of the reinvestment of any such amounts and after payment of all taxes or other charges or assessments in respect thereof payable by the Trustee, the principal of and premium (if any) and interest on and any Additional Amounts with
respect to all Securities of that series on each date that such principal, premium (if any), interest or Additional Amounts are due and payable and (at the Stated Maturity thereof or on redemption as provided in Section 8.01(e)) to pay all
other sums payable by it hereunder; provided that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply that money and/or 

  
 38 









 
the proceeds of those Government Obligations to the payment of said principal, premium (if any), interest and Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of that series as the same shall
become due; 
 (2) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that all
conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Securities of that series have been complied with, and an Opinion of Counsel to the same effect; 

(3) no Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series shall have occurred and be continuing on
the date of that deposit; 
 (4) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from
counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee or a tax ruling to the effect that the Holders of Securities of that series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the Company’s exercise of its option
under this Section 8.01(b) and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if that option had not been exercised; 

(5) the Company has complied with any additional conditions specified pursuant to Section 2.01 to be applicable to
the discharge of Securities of that series pursuant to this Section 8.01; and 
 (6) that deposit and
discharge shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest as defined in TIA Section 310(b). 
 In that event,
this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except as set forth in this paragraph), and the Trustee, on demand of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge under this Indenture. However, the
Company’s obligations in Sections 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 4.01, 4.02, 5.01, 7.07, 7.08 and 8.04, the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations in Section 8.03 and the rights, powers, protections and privileges accorded the
Trustee under Article VII shall survive until all Securities of that series are no longer outstanding. Thereafter, only the Company’s obligations in Section 7.07 and the Trustee’s and Paying Agent’s obligations in
Section 8.03 shall survive with respect to Securities of that series. 
 After making the irrevocable deposit pursuant to
this Section 8.01(b) and following satisfaction of the other conditions set forth herein, the Trustee on request shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of
that series, except for those surviving obligations specified above. 
 In order to have money available on a payment date to
pay principal of or premium (if any) or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities, the Government Obligations shall be payable as to principal or interest on or before that payment date in such amounts as will provide the
necessary money. Any such Government Obligations shall not be callable at the issuer’s option. 

  
 39 









 (b) If the Company has previously complied or is concurrently complying with
Section 8.01(b) (other than any additional conditions specified pursuant to Section 2.01 that are expressly applicable only to covenant defeasance) with respect to Securities of a series, then, unless this Section 8.01(c) is specified
as not being applicable to Securities of that series as contemplated by Section 2.01, the Company may elect to be discharged (“legal defeasance”) from its obligations to make payments with respect to Securities of that series, if:

 (1) no Default or Event of Default under clauses (5) and (6) of Section 6.01 hereof shall have
occurred at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit contemplated by Section 8.01(b) (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of that period); 

(2) unless otherwise specified with respect to Securities of that series as contemplated by Section 2.01, the Company
has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee to the effect referred to in Section 8.01(b)(4) with respect to that legal defeasance, which opinion is based on (i) a private ruling of
the Internal Revenue Service addressed to the Company, (ii) a published ruling of the Internal Revenue Service or (iii) a change in the applicable federal income tax law (including regulations) after the date of this Indenture; 

(3) the Company has complied with any other conditions specified pursuant to Section 2.01 to be applicable to the
legal defeasance of Securities of that series pursuant to this Section 8.01(c); and 
 (4) the Company has
delivered to the Trustee a Company Request requesting legal defeasance of the Securities of that series and an Officers’ Certificate stating that all conditions precedent with respect to legal defeasance of the Securities of that series have
been complied with, together with an Opinion of Counsel to the same effect. 
 In that event, the Company will be discharged
from its obligations under this Indenture and the Securities of that series to pay principal of, premium (if any) and interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to, Securities of that series, the Company’s obligations under Sections
4.01, 4.02 and 5.01 shall terminate with respect to those Securities, and the entire indebtedness of the Company evidenced by those Securities shall be deemed paid and discharged. 

(c) If and to the extent additional or alternative means of satisfaction, discharge or defeasance of Securities of a series are specified
to be applicable to that series as contemplated by Section 2.01, the Company may terminate any or all of its obligations under this Indenture with respect to Securities of a series and any or all of its obligations under the Securities of that
series if it fulfills such other means of satisfaction and discharge as may be so specified, as contemplated by Section 2.01, to be applicable to the Securities of that series. 

(d) If Securities of any series subject to subsections (a), (b), (c) or (d) of this Section 8.01 are to be redeemed prior
to their Stated Maturity, whether pursuant to any optional redemption provisions or in accordance with any mandatory or optional sinking fund provisions, the terms of the applicable trust arrangement shall provide for that redemption, and the
Company shall make such 

  
 40 









 
arrangements as are reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company. 

 

	Section 8.02	Application of Trust Money. 

 The Trustee or a trustee reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Company shall hold in trust money or Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof. It shall apply
the deposited money and the money from Government Obligations through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of, premium (if any) and interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities
of the series with respect to which the deposit was made. 
  

	Section 8.03	Repayment to Company. 


The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Company at any time on the written request of the Company any excess money or
Government Obligations (or proceeds therefrom) held by them. 
 Subject to the requirements of any applicable abandoned property
laws, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company on written request any money held by them for the payment of principal, premium (if any), interest or any Additional Amounts that remain unclaimed for two years after the date on which
that payment shall have become due. After payment to the Company, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another Person, and all liability of the
Trustee and the Paying Agent with respect to that money shall cease. 
  

	Section 8.04	Reinstatement. 

 If the
Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Obligations deposited with respect to Securities of any series in accordance with Section 8.01 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 that application, the obligations of the Company under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of that series and under the Securities of that series shall be
revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.01 until such time as the Trustee or the Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.01; provided,
however, that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium (if any) or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the
rights of the Holders of those Securities to receive such payment from the money or Government Obligations held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent.

 42 









 Upon the request of the Company, accompanied by a Board Resolution, and upon receipt by the
Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.06, the Trustee shall, subject to Section 9.06, join with the Company in the execution of any supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and make any
further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained. 
  

	Section 9.02	With Consent of Holders. 


Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture with the written
consent (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Securities of any one or more series or all series or a solicitation of consents in respect of Securities of any one or more series or all series, provided
that in each case that offer or solicitation is made to all Holders of then outstanding Securities of each such series (but the terms of that offer or solicitation may vary from series to series)) of the Holders of at least a majority in principal
amount of the then outstanding Securities of all series affected by that amendment or supplement (acting as one class). 
 Upon
the request of the Company, accompanied by a Board Resolution, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.06, the Trustee
shall, subject to Section 9.06, join with the Company in the execution of that amendment or supplemental indenture. 
 It
shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if that consent approves the substance thereof. 

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of one or more series or of all series may waive
compliance in a particular instance by the Company with any provision of this Indenture with respect to Securities of that series (including waivers obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Securities of that series or a
solicitation of consents in respect of Securities of that series, provided that in each case that offer or solicitation is made to all Holders of then outstanding Securities of that series (but the terms of that offer or solicitation may vary from
series to series)). 
 However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this
Section 9.02 may not: 
 (1) reduce the amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment,
supplement or waiver; 
 (2) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default
interest, on any Security; 

  
 43 









 (3) reduce the principal of, premium on or any mandatory sinking fund
payment with respect to, or change the Stated Maturity of, any Security or reduce the amount of the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable on a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to
Section 6.02; 
 (4) reduce the premium, if any, payable on the redemption of any Security or change the
time at which any Security may or shall be redeemed; 
 (5) change any obligation of the Company to pay
Additional Amounts with respect to any Security; 
 (6) change the coin or currency or currencies (including
composite currencies) in which any Security or any premium, interest or Additional Amounts with respect thereto are payable; 
 (7) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of, premium (if any) or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Security pursuant to Sections 6.07
and 6.08, except as limited by Section 6.06; 
 (8) make any change in the percentage of principal amount of
Securities necessary to waive compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture pursuant to Section 6.04 or 6.07 or make any change in this sentence of Section 9.02; or 

(9) waive a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium (if any) or interest on or
Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities. 
 A supplemental indenture that changes or eliminates any covenant or other
provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of that series with respect to that covenant or other
provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series. 

The right of any Holder to participate in any consent required or sought pursuant to any provision of this Indenture (and the obligation
of the Company to obtain any such consent otherwise required from that Holder) may be subject to the requirement that such Holder shall have been the Holder of record of any Securities with respect to which that consent is required or sought as of a
date identified by the Company in a notice furnished to Holders in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. 
 After an
amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders of each Security affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to
mail that notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver. 

  
 44 










	Section 9.03	Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 

 Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Securities shall comply in form and substance with the TIA as then in effect. 

 

	Section 9.04	Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

 Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that
evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to his or her Security or portion of a Security if
the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder. 

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date (which need not comply with Section 316(c) of the TIA) for the
purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver or to take any other action under this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph,
those Persons who were Holders at that record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to consent to that amendment, supplement or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not those
Persons continue to be Holders after that record date. No consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after that record date unless consents from Holders of the principal amount of Securities required hereunder for that amendment or
waiver to be effective shall have also been given and not revoked within that 90-day period. 
 After an amendment, supplement
or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder, unless it is of the type described in any of clauses (1) through (9) of Section 9.02 hereof. In that case, the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind each Holder who has
consented to it and every subsequent Holder that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security. 
  

	Section 9.05	Notation on or Exchange of Securities. 

 If an amendment or supplement changes the terms of an outstanding Security, the Company may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation
on the Security at the request of the Company regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company so determines, the Company in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new
Security that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Security shall not affect the validity of that amendment or supplement. 
 Securities of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any amendment or supplement may, and shall if required by the Company, bear a notation in form approved by the Company as to any
matter provided for in that amendment or supplement. 

  
 45 










	Section 9.06	Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 

 The Trustee shall sign any amendment or supplement authorized pursuant to this Article if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the
Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign it. In signing or refusing to sign that amendment or supplement, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and, subject to Section 7.01 hereof, shall be fully protected in relying on, an
Opinion of Counsel provided at the expense of the Company as conclusive evidence that such amendment or supplement is authorized or permitted by this Indenture, that it is not inconsistent herewith, and that it will be valid and binding on the
Company in accordance with its terms. 
 ARTICLE X 
 GUARANTEES 
 Any series of Securities may be guaranteed by one or more guarantors.
The terms and the form of any such Guarantee will be established in the manner contemplated by Section 2.01 for that particular series of Securities.
