of all Outstanding Securities of such series (or such lesser amount as is permitted by the terms thereof) from time to time endorsed thereon and may also provide that the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time
to time be increased or reduced to reflect exchanges. Any endorsement of any Security in global form to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, or changes in the rights of Holders, of Outstanding Securities represented thereby
shall be made in such manner and by such Person or Persons as shall be specified therein or in the Company Order to be delivered pursuant to Section 3.3 or 3.4 with respect thereto. Subject to the provisions of
Section 3.3 and, if applicable, Section 3.4, the Trustee shall deliver and redeliver, in each case at the Company’s expense, any Security in permanent global form in the manner and upon instructions given by the Person
or Persons specified therein or in the applicable Company Order. If a Company Order pursuant to Section 3.3 or 3.4 has been, or simultaneously is, delivered, any instructions by the Company with respect to a Security in global

Security. Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership interests of a global Security, or for maintaining, supervising
or reviewing any records relating to beneficial ownership interests, and each of the Company and the Trustee may act or refrain from acting without liability on any information provided by the Depository. Neither any members of, or participants in,
the Depository nor any other Persons on whose behalf the agent members of the depository may act shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to any global Security registered in the name of the Depository or any nominee thereof or under
any such global Security. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.8 and except as provided in the preceding
paragraph, the Company the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall treat as the Holder of such principal amount of Outstanding Securities represented by a global Security in registered form, the Holder of such global Security in
registered form.

or pursuant to the Board Resolution and set forth in the Officers’ Certificate or in any indenture or indentures supplemental hereto pertaining to such series of Securities. The terms of the Securities of any series may provide, without
limitation, that the Securities shall be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee on original issue from time to time upon written order of persons designated in the Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture and that such persons are
authorized to determine, consistent with such Officers’ Certificate or any applicable supplemental indenture, such terms and conditions of the Securities of such series as are specified in such Officers’ Certificate or supplemental
indenture. All Securities of any one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise so provided, a series may be reopened for issuances of additional Securities of such series or to establish additional terms of such series of
Securities. The Company also may issue, and the Trustee may authenticate, Securities with the same terms as previously issued Securities. 
 If any of the terms of the Securities of any series shall be established by action taken by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, the Board Resolution shall be delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the
delivery of the Officers’ Certificate setting forth the terms of such series. 
 Section 3.2. Currency; Denominations.

 Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, the principal of, and any premium and interest, if any,
on, the Securities shall be payable in Dollars. Registered Securities denominated in Dollars shall be issuable in registered form, and unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, in denominations of $1,000, and any integral
multiple thereof. Securities not denominated in Dollars shall be issuable in such denominations as are established with respect to such Securities in or pursuant to this Indenture. 
 Section 3.3. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. 

Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, a Vice Chairman, its President, its Chief Executive
Officer, its Chief Financial Officer, its Treasurer or a Vice President under its corporate seal reproduced thereon, if applicable, and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the
Securities may be manual or facsimile. 
 Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any
time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the
date of original issuance of such Securities. 
 At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this
Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication and, provided that the Board Resolution and Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture or indentures with respect to such Securities
referred to in Section 3.1 and a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities have been delivered to the Trustee, the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order and subject to the provisions hereof and of such
Securities shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. In authenticating such Securities and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to
Sections 315(a) through 315(d) of the Trust Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon, 
 (1) an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that: 
 (a) the form or forms and the terms of such Securities have been established in conformity with
the provisions of this Indenture; and 
 (b) such Securities, when completed by appropriate insertions and executed and
delivered by the Company to the Trustee for authentication in accordance with this Indenture, authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any


  
 22 









 
conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights, to general equitable principles and to such other qualifications as such counsel shall conclude do not
materially affect the rights of Holders of such Securities; and 
 (2) an Officers’ Certificate stating that, to the best
knowledge of the Persons executing such certificate, i) all conditions precedent to the execution, authentication and delivery of such Securities have been complied with, and ii) no event which is, or after notice or lapse of time would become, an
Event of Default with respect to any of the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing. 
 If all the Securities of any
series are not to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate at the time of issuance of each Security, but such Opinion of Counsel and Officers’ Certificate, with
appropriate modifications, shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the first Security of such series. After any such first delivery, any separate written request by an Authorized Officer of the Company or any person designated in
writing by an Authorized Officer that the Trustee authenticate and deliver Securities of such series for original issue will be deemed to be a certification by the Company that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to
authentication and delivery of such Securities continue to have been complied with and that no Event of Default with respect to any of the Securities has occurred or is continuing. 

The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate or to cause an Authenticating Agent to authenticate any Securities if the issue of such
Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee or if the Trustee, being advised
by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken. 
 Each Registered Security shall be dated the date of its
authentication. 
 No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose,
unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for in Section 2.2 or 6.11 executed by or on behalf of the Trustee or by the Authenticating Agent by the manual signature of
one of its authorized officers. Such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. 
 Section 3.4. Temporary Securities. 
 Pending the preparation of
definitive Securities, the Company may execute and deliver to the Trustee and, upon Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the manner provided in Section 3.3, temporary Securities in lieu thereof which are printed,
lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form with such appropriate insertions, omissions,
substitutions and other variations as the officers of the Company executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities. Such temporary Securities may be in global form. 

Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form, which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions thereof, if
temporary Securities are issued, the Company shall cause definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of the same series and containing terms and provisions that are identical to
those of any temporary Securities, such temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for such definitive Securities upon surrender of such temporary Securities at an Office or Agency for such Securities, without charge to any Holder thereof. Upon
surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized
denominations of the same series and containing identical terms and provisions. Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture with respect to a temporary global Security, until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall
in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series. 

  
 23 









 Section 3.5. Registration, Transfer and Exchange. 

With respect to the Registered Securities of each series, if any, the Company shall cause to be kept a register (each such register being
herein sometimes referred to as the “Security Register”) at an Office or Agency for such series in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of the Registered
Securities of such series and of transfers of the Registered Securities of such series. Such Office or Agency shall be the “Security Registrar” for that series of Securities. Unless otherwise specified in or pursuant to this Indenture or
the Securities, the Trustee shall be the initial Security Registrar for each series of Securities. The Company shall have the right to remove and replace from time to time the Security Registrar for any series of Securities; provided that no such
removal or replacement shall be effective until a successor Security Registrar with respect to such series of Securities shall have been appointed by the Company and shall have accepted such appointment by the Company. In the event that the Trustee
shall not be or shall cease to be Security Registrar with respect to a series of Securities, it shall have the right to examine the Security Register for such series at all reasonable times. The Company shall be required to maintain a Security
Registrar in each place where the principal of and premium or interest on any Security is payable. There shall be only one Security Register for each series of Securities. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Registered Security of any series at any Office or Agency for such series, and upon a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Registrar duly
executed by the Holder or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Registered
Securities of the same series denominated as authorized in or pursuant to this Indenture, of a like aggregate principal amount bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding and containing identical terms and provisions. 

At the option of the Holder, certificated Securities and the right to receive the principal, premium and interest, if any, on any
certificated Security may be transferred by a Holder by surrendering such certificate representing the certificated Securities at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. Such certificate representing the certificated Securities may be reissued by
the Company or the Trustee to a new Holder or a new certificate representing the certificated Securities may be issued by the Company or the Trustee to a new Holder. 
 At the option of the Holder, Registered Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Registered Securities of the same series containing identical terms and provisions, in any authorized
denominations, and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at any Office or Agency for such series, together with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by the
Holder or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. Whenever any Registered Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Registered Securities that the
Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise provided in or pursuant
to this Indenture, any global Security shall be exchangeable for certificated Securities only if (i) the Depository is at any time unwilling, unable or ineligible to continue as depository and a successor depository is not appointed by the
Company within 90 days of the date the Company is so informed in writing, (ii) the Company, in its discretion, determines not to require all of the Securities of a series to be represented by a global Security and notifies the Trustee of its
decision by executing and delivering to the Trustee a Company Order to the effect that such global Security shall be so exchangeable or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and the
Paying Agent shall have notified the Depository that the global Security shall be exchangeable for certificated Securities. If the beneficial owners of interests in a global Security are entitled to exchange such interests for definitive Securities
as the result of an event described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall
deliver to the Trustee definitive Securities in such form and denominations as are required by or pursuant to this Indenture, and of the same series, containing identical terms and in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such
global Security, executed by the Company. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such global Security shall be surrendered from time to time by the U.S. Depository or such other Depository as shall be specified in
the Company Order with respect thereto, and in accordance with instructions given to the Trustee and the U.S. Depository or such other Depository, as the case may be (which instructions shall be in writing but need not be contained in or accompanied
by an Officers’ Certificate or be accompanied by an 

  
 24 









 
Opinion of Counsel), as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or in part, for
definitive Securities as described above without charge. The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange for each portion of such surrendered global Security, a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of
the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such global Security to be exchanged, which shall be in the form of Registered Securities, but subject to the satisfaction of any certification requirements. Promptly
following any such exchange in part, such global Security shall be returned by the Trustee to such Depository or the U.S. Depository, as the case may be, or such other Depository or U.S. Depository referred to above in accordance with the
instructions of the Company referred to above. If a Registered Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a global Security after the close of business at the Office or Agency for such Security where such exchange occurs on or after
(i) any Regular Record Date for such Security and before the opening of business at such Office or Agency on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date for such Security and before the opening of business at
such Office or Agency on the related proposed date for payment of interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, interest shall not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such
Registered Security, but shall be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only to the Person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such global Security shall be payable in accordance with the
provisions of this Indenture. 
 All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the
valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt and entitling the Holders thereof to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

Every Registered Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange or redemption shall (if so required by
the Company or the Security Registrar for such Security) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in a form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar for such Security duly executed by the Holder thereof
or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, or
redemption of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or other governmental charge and any other reasonable expenses (including fees and expenses of the Trustee) that may be imposed in connection
with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.4, 3.6, 9.5 or 11.7, not involving any transfer. 

The Company shall not be required (i) to register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning at
the opening of business 15 days before the day the Company transmits a notice of redemption of Securities of the series selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of the transmission, or (ii) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange any Security selected for redemption in whole or in part, except in the case of any Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed, or (iii) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any
Security which, in accordance with its terms, has been surrendered for repayment at the option of the Holder, except the portion, if any, of such Security not to be so repaid. 
 Section 3.6. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 
 If
any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 3.6, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series
containing identical terms and of like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 If there be
delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of
them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and, upon the Company’s request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in
exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series containing identical terms and of like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

  
 25 









 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.6, in case any
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section 3.6, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any stamp tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the fees and expenses of Trustee’s counsel) connected therewith. 

Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section 3.6 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute a
separate obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other
Securities of such series, duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section 3.6, as amended or supplemented
pursuant to this Indenture with respect to particular Securities or generally, shall be exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Securities. 
 Section 3.7. Payment of Interest; Rights to Interest Preserved. 

Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, any interest on any Registered Security which shall be payable, and are
punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such
interest. 
 Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, any interest on any Registered Security which shall be
payable, but shall not be punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for such Registered Security (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder thereof on the relevant
Regular Record Date; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company at its election as provided in clause (1) or (2) below: 
 (1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Person in whose name such Registered Security (or a Predecessor Security thereof) shall be registered at the close of business on
a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed by the Company in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on such Registered
Security, the Special Record Date therefor and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted
Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when so deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Person entitled to such Defaulted Interest as
in this clause provided. The Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after notification to the
Trustee of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall, in the name and at the expense of the Company cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the
Holder of such Registered Security (or a Predecessor Security thereof) at his address as it appears in the Security Register not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. The Trustee may, in its discretion, in the name and at the expense
of the Company cause a similar notice to be published at least once in an Authorized Newspaper of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, but such publication shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment of
such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Registered Security (or
a Predecessor Security thereof) shall be registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2). 
 (2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Security may be listed, and upon such


  
 26 









 
notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the
Trustee. 
 Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture or the Securities of any particular series pursuant to
the provisions of this Indenture, at the option of the Company, interest on Registered Securities that bear interest may be paid at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purposes in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, or by
mailing a check to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by transfer to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located in the United States. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a holder of $1,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Securities of any series of global
Securities (or its equivalent in a Foreign Currency, if the currency unit is a Foreign Currency), whether having identical or different terms and provisions, having the same interest payment dates will be entitled to receive interest payments, other
than at Maturity, by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee for the Securities of such series at least 15 days prior to the applicable Interest Payment
Date. In addition to the foregoing, a holder of $1,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Securities of any series of global Securities (or its equivalent in a Foreign Currency, if the currency unit is a Foreign Currency), whether having
identical or different terms and provisions, having the same Maturity will be entitled to receive payment at Maturity by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the
Trustee for the Securities of such series at least 15 days prior to Maturity; provided, however, that such payments shall be made subject to applicable laws and regulations and only after surrender of the global Securities to the Company, the
corporate trust office or the Paying Agent, for such global Securities not later than one Business Day prior to Maturity. Any wire instructions received by the Trustee for the Securities of such series shall remain in effect until revoked by the
Holder. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 3.5, each Security delivered under this
Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 

In the case of any Registered Security of any series that is convertible into other securities of the Company or exchangeable for
securities of another issuer, which Registered Security is converted or exchanged after any Regular Record Date and on or prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (other than any Registered Security with respect to which the Stated
Maturity is prior to such Interest Payment Date), interest with respect to which the Stated Maturity is on such Interest Payment Date shall be payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding such conversion or exchange, and such interest
(whether or not punctually paid or duly provided for) shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Registered Security (or one or more predecessor Registered Securities) is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date. Except as
otherwise expressly provided in the immediately preceding sentence, in the case of any Registered Security which is converted or exchanged, interest with respect to which the Stated Maturity is after the date of conversion or exchange of such
Registered Security shall not be payable. 
 Section 3.8. Persons Deemed Owners. 

Prior to due presentment of a Registered Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or
the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Registered Security is registered in the Security Register as the owner of such Registered Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, and any premium or (subject to
Section 3.5 and 3.7) interest, if any, on such Registered Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not any payment with respect to such Registered Security shall be overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee
or any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 No Holder of any beneficial interest
in any global Security held on its behalf by a Depository shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to such global Security, and such Depository may be treated by the Company, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as
the owner of such global Security for all purposes whatsoever. None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on
account of beneficial 

  
 27 









 
ownership interests of a global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 

Section 3.9. Cancellation. 
 All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer, exchange or conversion or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the
Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee, and any such Securities, as well as Securities surrendered directly to the Trustee for any such purpose, shall be cancelled promptly by the Trustee. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for
cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be cancelled promptly by the Trustee. No Securities shall be
authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by or pursuant to this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be destroyed by the Trustee in its
customary manner and the Trustee shall deliver a certificate of disposition to the Company upon its written request therefor, unless by a Company Order, the Company directs their return to it. 

Section 3.10. Computation of Interest. 
 Except as otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture or in any Security, interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 

Section 3.11. CUSIP Numbers. 
 The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP,” “CINS” and “ISIN” numbers (if then generally in use), and the Trustee shall use CUSIP, CINS or ISIN numbers, as the
case may be, in notice of redemptions or exchanges as a convenience to Holders and no presentation shall be made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption or exchange. The
Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in CUSIP, CINS or ISIN numbers. 
 ARTICLE 4 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 4.1. Satisfaction and Discharge. 
 Upon the direction of the
Company by a Company Order, this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to any series of Securities specified in such Company Order (except as to any surviving rights of Securities of such series expressly provided for herein or
pursuant thereto), and the Trustee, on receipt of a Company Order, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series, when 

(1) either 
 (a)
all Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Securities of such series which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.6 and
(ii) Securities of such series for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in
Section 10.3) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 
 (b) all Securities of such 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) if redeemable at the option of the Company, 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, 

  
 28 









 and the Company, in the case of subclause (b)(i), (ii) or (iii) above, has
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for such purpose, money in the Currency in which such Securities are payable in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness represented by such
Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, including the principal of, and any premium or interest, if any, on such Securities, to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or
to the Maturity thereof, as the case may be; 
 (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder
by the Company with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series; and 
 (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate, each stating that, in the opinion of such officer or counsel, as the case may be, all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to
such series have been complied with. 
 In the event there are Securities of two or more series hereunder, the Trustee shall be
required to execute an instrument acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture only if requested to do so with respect to Securities of such series as to which it is Trustee and if the other conditions thereto are met. 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to any series of Securities, the obligations of the Company
to the Trustee under Section 6.6 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (b) of clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Company and the Trustee with respect to the Securities of
each series under Sections 3.5, 3.6, 4.3, 10.2 and 10.3, and with respect to any rights to convert or exchange such Securities into securities of the Company or another issuer, shall survive. 

Section 4.2. Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance. 
 (1) Unless pursuant to Section 3.1, either or both of (i) defeasance of the Securities of or within a series under clause (2) of this Section 4.2 shall not be applicable
with respect to the Securities of such series or (ii) covenant defeasance of the Securities of or within a series under clause (3) of this Section 4.2 shall not be applicable with respect to the Securities of such series, then
such provisions, together with the other provisions of this Section 4.2 (with such modifications thereto as may be specified pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to any Securities), shall be applicable to such Securities, and
the Company may at its option by Board Resolution, at any time, with respect to such Securities, elect to have Section 4.2(2) or Section 4.2(3) be applied to such Outstanding Securities upon compliance with the conditions set
forth below in this Section 4.2. 
 (2) Upon the Company’s exercise of the above option applicable to this
Section 4.2(2) with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to such Outstanding Securities on the date the conditions set forth in clause
(4) of this Section 4.2 are satisfied (hereinafter, “defeasance”). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by such
Outstanding Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “Outstanding” only for the purposes of clause (5) of this Section 4.2 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (i) and
(ii) below, and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Securities, and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging
the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (i) the rights of Holders of such Outstanding Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in clause (4) of this
Section 4.2 and as more fully set forth in such clause, payments in respect of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Securities when such payments are due, and any rights of such Holder to convert such
Securities into other securities of the Company or exchange such Securities for securities another issuer, (ii) the obligations of the Company and the Trustee with respect to such Securities under Sections 3.5, 3.6, 10.2
and 10.3, and with respect to any rights to convert such Securities into other securities of the Company or exchange such Securities for securities of another issuer, (iii) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee
hereunder and (iv) this Section 4.2. The Company may exercise its option under this Section 4.2(2) notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under clause (3) of this Section 4.2 with respect to
such Securities. 

  
 29 









 (3) Upon the Company’s exercise of the option to have this Section 4.2(3)
apply with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company shall be released from its obligations under Section 10.5 and, to the extent specified pursuant to Section 3.1(19), any other covenant applicable to such
Securities, with respect to such Outstanding Securities, on and after the date the conditions set forth in clause (4) of this Section 4.2 are satisfied (hereinafter, “covenant defeasance”), and such Securities shall
thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with any such covenant, but shall continue to be deemed
“Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to such Outstanding Securities, the Company may omit to comply with, and shall have no liability in respect of, any term,
condition or limitation set forth in any such Section or such other covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or such other covenant or by reason of reference in any such Section or
such other covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a default or an Event of Default under Section 5.4 or 5.8 or otherwise, as the case may be, but, except as
specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby. 
 (4) The following shall be
the conditions to application of clause (2) or (3) of this Section 4.2 to any Outstanding Securities of or within a series: 
 (a) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 6.7 who shall agree to comply with the
provisions of this Section 4.2 applicable to it) 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 such Securities,
(1) an amount in Dollars or in such Foreign Currency in which such Securities are then specified as payable at Stated Maturity, or (2) Government Obligations applicable to such Securities (determined on the basis of the Currency in which
such Securities are then specified as payable at Stated Maturity) which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment
of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Securities, money in an amount, or (3) a combination thereof, in any case, in an amount, sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of such principal and interest,
in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to
pay and discharge, (y) the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Outstanding Securities at the Stated Maturity of such principal or installment of principal or premium or interest and (z) any mandatory sinking
fund payments or analogous payments applicable to such Outstanding Securities on the days on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and of such Securities. Provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing,
with respect to any Securities which shall at the time be listed for trading on a stock exchange, there shall be no deposit of funds in cash and/or in Government Obligations with the Trustee to pay the principal amount, the redemption price or any
installment of interest in order to discharge the Company’s obligations in respect of such payment if, at such time, the rules of the such stock exchange prohibit such deposit with the Trustee. 

(b) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or
any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. 
 (c) No Event of Default
or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit. 

(d) In the case of an election under clause (2) of this Section 4.2, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) the Company has received from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a letter ruling, or there has been published by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a Revenue Ruling, or (ii) since the date of execution of
this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of such Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or
loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred. 

  
 30 









 (e) In the case of an election under clause (3) of this Section 4.2, the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will
be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred. 
 (f) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance or covenant defeasance under
clause (2) or (3) of this Section 4.2 (as the case may be) have been complied with. 
 (g) Notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Section 4.2(4), such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with any additional or substitute terms, conditions or limitations which may be imposed on the Company in connection
therewith pursuant to Section 3.1. 
 (5) Unless otherwise specified in or pursuant to this Indenture or any
Security, if, after a deposit referred to in Section 4.2(4)(a) has been made, (a) the Holder of a Security in respect of which such deposit was made is entitled to, and does, elect pursuant to Section 3.1 or the terms of
such Security to receive payment in a Currency other than that in which the deposit pursuant to Section 4.2(4)(a) has been made in respect of such Security, or (b) a Conversion Event occurs in respect of the Foreign Currency in
which the deposit pursuant to Section 4.2(4)(a) has been made, the Indebtedness represented by such Security shall be deemed to have been, and will be, fully discharged and satisfied through the payment of the principal of (and premium,
if any), and interest, if any, on, such Security as the same becomes due out of the proceeds yielded by converting (from time to time as specified below in the case of any such election) the amount or other property deposited in respect of such
Security into the Currency in which such Security becomes payable as a result of such election or Conversion Event based on (x) in the case of payments made pursuant to clause (a) above, the applicable market exchange rate for such
Currency in effect on the second Business Day prior to each payment date, or (y) with respect to a Conversion Event, the applicable market exchange rate for such Foreign Currency in effect (as nearly as feasible) at the time of the Conversion
Event. 
 The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this
Section 4.2(5) and Section 4.3, the “Trustee”) against any tax, fee or other charge, imposed on or assessed against the Government Obligations deposited pursuant to this Section 4.2 or the principal or
interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of such Outstanding Securities. 
 Anything in this Section 4.2 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request, any money or Government Obligations (or
other property and any proceeds therefrom) held by it as provided in clause (4) of this Section 4.2 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect a defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 4.2. 

Section 4.3. Application of Trust Money. 
 Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.3, all money and Government Obligations (or other property as may be provided pursuant to Section 3.1) (including the
proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2 in respect of any Outstanding Securities of any series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such
Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due
thereon in respect of principal (and premium, if any) and interest; but such money and Government Obligations need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

  
 31 









 Section 4.4. Reinstatement. 

(1) If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Obligations in accordance with Section 4.2(4) by
reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Securities of
the applicable series issued hereunder shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit has occurred pursuant to Section 4.2(4) until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or Government
Obligations in accordance with and as contemplated by Section 4.2(4). 
 (2) If the Company’s obligations under
this Indenture and the Securities of the applicable series issued hereunder shall be revived and reinstated in accordance with this Section 4.4, the Company shall be permitted, at its discretion to withdraw all or a portion of the
deposits made by the Company pursuant to Section 4.2(4). 
 (3) If the Company elects not to withdraw any of the
deposits made by the Company pursuant to Section 4.2(4), if and when the Trustee or Paying Agent is later permitted to apply all such money or Government Obligations in accordance with and as contemplated by Section 4.2(4),
the rights of the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of the Securities of the applicable series to receive payments from the money or Government Obligations deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 4.2(4) and
held by the Trustee or Paying Agent; provided that if the Company shall have made any payment of principal or interest on the Securities of any series because of the revival and reinstatement of its obligations, which payment is not sourced from any
amounts deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 4.2(4) (such amount, in the aggregate, being referred to as the “Company Paid Amount”), the Company shall be permitted, at its discretion, to withdraw all or a portion of the
deposits made by the Company pursuant to Section 4.2(4) up to the Company Paid Amount.

 (7) any
other Event of Default provided in or pursuant to this Indenture with respect to Securities of such series. 
 Section 5.2. Acceleration
of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at the time
Outstanding (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of Section 5.1) occurs and is continuing, then the Trustee or the Holders of not less than a Specified Percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such series may declare the principal of all the Securities of such series, or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the Securities of such series, to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to
the Trustee if given by the Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal or such lesser amount shall become immediately due and payable. 
 At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as
hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of not less than a Specified Percentage of the principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration
and its consequences if 
 (1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay : 

(a) all overdue installments of any interest on all Securities of such series, 

(b) the principal of and any premium on any Securities of such series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of
acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, 

  
 33 









 (c) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue
installments of any interest at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, and 
 (d) all sums paid or
advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.6; and 

(2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of such series, other than the non-payment of the principal of, or any premium and
interest, if any, on Securities of such series which shall have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, shall have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13. 

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

Section 5.3. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 

The Company covenants that if a 
 (1) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security when such interest shall have become due and payable and such default continues for a Specified Period, or 

(2) default is made in the payment of the principal of or any premium on any Security at its Maturity, 

the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount of
money then due and payable with respect to such Securities, with interest upon the overdue principal, any premium and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue installments of interest, and in
addition thereto, such further amount of money 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 and all other
amounts due to the Trustee under Section 6.6. 
 If the Company shall fail to pay the money it is required to pay
the Trustee pursuant to the preceding paragraph forthwith upon the demand of the Trustee, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the money so due and unpaid, and may
prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities and collect the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property
of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated. Every recovery of judgment in any such action or other proceeding, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Trustee, its agents and counsel, shall be for the ratable benefit of each and every Holder of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of
Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or such
Securities or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein or therein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
 Section 5.4.
Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities of any series or the property of the Company or such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee
(irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of any
overdue principal, premium or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 

  
 34 









 (1) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount, or such lesser amount as may be provided
for in the Securities of any applicable series, of the principal and any premium and interest in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee
(including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents or counsel) and of the Holders of Securities allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 

(2) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is
hereby authorized by each Holder of Securities to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders of Securities, 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 6.6. 
 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Security 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 of a Security in any such proceeding. 
 Section 5.5. Trustee May Enforce Claims without Possession of Securities. 
 All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or any of the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any
proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery or judgment, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, shall be for the ratable benefit of each and every Holder of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 

Section 5.6. Application of Money Collected. 
 Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of
principal or any premium or interest, upon presentation of the Securities, and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 

(1) To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under Section 6.6; 

(2) To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Securities for principal and any premium and interest, ratably, without
preference or priority of any kind, according to the aggregate amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal and any premium and interest, respectively; 
 (3) The balance, if any, to the Company, its successors or assigns, or to the Person or Persons lawfully entitled thereto. 
 Section 5.7. Limitations on Suits. 
 No Holder of any Security of any
series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless 

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

  
 35 









 (2) the Holders of a Specified Percentage of the principal amount outstanding of the
Outstanding Securities of such series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 

(3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee such indemnity as is reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and
liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (4) the Trustee for a Specified Period after its receipt of such
notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 
 (5) no direction inconsistent with
such written request has been given to the Trustee during such Specified by the Holders of a Specified Percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series; 

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by
availing of, any provision of this Indenture or any Security to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such Holders or Holders of Securities of any other series, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other
Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders. 
 Section 5.8. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal and any Premium and Interest. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of, any premium and
(subject to Sections 3.7 and 3.10) interest on such Security, on the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities therefor specified in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date or, in the case of repayment at
the option of such Holder if provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, on the date such repayment is due) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

 Section 5.9. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 
 If the Trustee or any Holder of a Security has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has
been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee and each such Holder shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former
positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and each such Holder shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 
 Except as otherwise
provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.6, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to each and every Holder
of a Security is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy, to the extent permitted by law, shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at
law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not, to the extent permitted by law, prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

 Section 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any
such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to any Holder of a Security may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by
such Holder, as the case may be.

 Section 5.12. Control by Holders of Securities. 

The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the
time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that 

(1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture or with the Securities of such series,

 (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and

 (3) such direction is not unduly prejudicial to the rights of the other Holders of Securities of such series not joining in
such action.

 The Holders of not less than a majority of the principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series may waive any past default
hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default 
 (1) in the payment of the principal of, any
premium or interest on, any Security of such series, or 
 (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under
Article 9 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. 
 Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend
to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 5.14. Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws.

 The Company covenants that (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) it will not at any time insist upon, or plead,
or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company
expressly waives (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) 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 5.15. Undertaking for Costs. 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any
court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of
any undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit having due regard to the merits and good faith of
the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.15 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more
than a Specified Percentage in principal amount of Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Security on or
after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption or repurchase, on or after the Redemption Date, and, in the case of repayment or repurchase, on or after the date for repayment or repurchase) or for
the enforcement of the right, if any, to convert or exchange any Security into other securities in accordance with its terms.

a Board Resolution. 
 (3) Whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be
proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence shall be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon a Board Resolution, an Opinion of
Counsel or an Officers’ Certificate.

The Trustee, any Paying Agent, Security Registrar, Authenticating Agent or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other
capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Trust Indenture Act Sections 310(b) and 311, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Security Registrar,
Authenticating Agent or such other agent.

 The Company agrees: 
 (1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation
for all services rendered by it hereunder as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust).

 (2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including reasonable compensation and the expenses, advances and disbursements of its agents

negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of any Trustee shall not affect the rights of any other Trustee under this Section 6.6. 
 The provisions of this Section 6.6 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee and shall apply with equal force and
effect to the Trustee in its capacity as Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent or Security Registrar. 
 Section 6.7. Corporate Trustee
Required; Eligibility. 
 There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a Corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, that is eligible under Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to act as trustee under an indenture qualified under the Trust Indenture
Act and that has a combined capital and surplus (computed in accordance with Section 310(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act) of at least $50,000,000, and that is subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state authority. If at any time

Company or any Holder of a Security of such series who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months, or 

(b) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.7 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the
Company or any such Holder, or 
 (c) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent
or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, 

then, in any such case, (i) the Company, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities
or the Securities of such series, or (ii) subject to Section 315(e) of the Trust Indenture Act, any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all
others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities of such series and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 

(5) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any
cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of such series (it being understood that any such
successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable
requirements of Section 6.9. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapacity, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders
of a Specified Percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance
with the applicable requirements of Section 6.9, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect
to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed within 90 days after such appointment might have been made hereunder by the Company or the Holders of Securities and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.9,
any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 (6) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and
each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the
Holders of Registered Securities, if any, of such series as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its
Corporate Trust Office. 
 (7) In no event shall any retiring Trustee be liable for the acts or omissions of any successor
Trustee hereunder. 
 Section 6.9. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

(1) Upon the appointment hereunder of any successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, such successor Trustee so appointed shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties hereunder of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or such successor Trustee or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of
the applicable series of Securities then Outstanding, such retiring Trustee, upon payment of its charges, shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and,
subject to Section 10.3, shall

duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its claim, if any, provided for in
Section 6.6. 
 (2) Upon the appointment hereunder of any successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or
more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and such successor Trustee shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such
provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, such successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the
appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts
and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions
of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees
co-trustees of the same trust, that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee and that no Trustee shall be responsible for any
notice given to, or received by, or any act or failure to act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder, and, upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective
to the extent provided therein, such retiring Trustee shall have no further responsibility for the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture with respect to the
Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates other than as hereinafter expressly set forth, and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or such successor Trustee, such retiring
Trustee, upon payment of its charges with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates and subject to Section 10.3 shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor
Trustee, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture, the property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates,
subject to its claim, if any, provided for in Section 6.6. 
 (3) Upon request of any Person appointed hereunder as
a successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (1) or (2) of this Section,
as the case may be. 
 (4) No Person shall accept its appointment hereunder as a successor Trustee unless at the time of such
acceptance such successor Person shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. 
 Section 6.10. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or
Succession to Business. 
 Any Corporation into which, the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any Corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any Corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of the
Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, provided, that such Corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this
Section. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the
Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities. 
 Section 6.11.
Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 
 The Trustee may appoint one or more Authenticating Agents acceptable to the
Company with respect to one or more series of Securities, and which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of that or those series issued upon original issue, exchange, registration of transfer, partial
redemption or partial repayment or pursuant to Section 3.6, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this 

  
 42 









 
Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of
Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on
behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. 
 Each Authenticating Agent must be acceptable to the Company and, except as
provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, shall at all times be a Corporation that would be permitted by the Trust Indenture Act to act as trustee under an indenture qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, is authorized under applicable law and by
its charter to act as an Authenticating Agent and has a combined capital and surplus (computed in accordance with Section 310(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act) of at least $50,000,000. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 
 Any Corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such
Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any Corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, provided
such Corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and the Company. The Trustee may at any
time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating
Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall mail written notice of such appointment by first-class
mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Registered Securities, if any, of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent shall serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent, upon
acceptance of its appointment hereunder, shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be

authorized, and each and every Holder of the Securities of such series, by receiving and holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed to have authorized any such receiver, assignee, custodian, trustee, or debtor, to make any such payment or
delivery to or on the order of such Trustee, and, in the event that such Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments or deliveries directly to the Holders of the Securities of such series, to pay to such Trustee any amount due it for
reasonable compensation and expenses, including counsel fees and expenses, incurred by it down to the date of such payment or delivery; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize or empower such Trustee to consent
to or accept or adopt, on behalf of any Holder of Securities of such series, any plan of reorganization or readjustment of the Company affecting the Securities of such series or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize or empower such
Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of any Securities of such series in any such proceedings.

contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Company to the collateral, for insuring the collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the collateral. The

 Section 9.2. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders.

 With the consent of the Holders of not less than a Specified Percentage in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of each series affected by such supplemental indenture, by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company and the Trustee, the Company (when authorized by or pursuant to a Company’s Board Resolution) and the Trustee may
enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of

the day of execution thereof, but may be revoked at any time thereafter by such Holder or by his successor in title by filing written notice of such revocation with the Trustee at its corporate trust office; provided, however, that such consent
shall not be revocable after the holders of not less than a Specified Percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of the series of which such Security is a part at the time Outstanding shall have consented to such supplemental
indenture. No notation on any Security of the fact of such consent shall be necessary, but any such written consent by the Holder of any Security shall be conclusive and binding on all future Holders and owners of the same Security and of all
Securities delivered in exchange therefor, unless revoked in the manner and during the period provided in this Section 9.2.

series in equal aggregate principal amounts, and such exchange shall be made without cost to the Holders.

Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, the Company hereby designates as the Place of Payment for each series of Securities the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and initially appoint the Corporate Trust Office of the

those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums. 

Except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant hereto, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the
Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, any premium or interest on, any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal or any such premium or interest shall have become due and payable shall be paid
to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company), unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property laws, shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such
Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof,

a Specified Period prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair
and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal amount of Registered Securities of such series; provided, however, that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount
of a Registered Security of such series not redeemed to less than the minimum denomination for a Security of such series established herein or pursuant hereto. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Security Registrar (if other than itself) 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 all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise
requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed.

 Unless otherwise specified in or pursuant to this Indenture or the Securities of any series, if any Security selected for
partial redemption is converted into other securities of the Company or exchanged for securities of another issuer in part before termination of the conversion or exchange right with respect to the portion of the Security so selected, the converted
portion of such Security shall be deemed (so far as may be) to be the portion selected for redemption. Securities which have been converted or exchanged during a selection of Securities to be redeemed shall be treated by the Trustee as Outstanding
for the purpose of such selection. 
 Section 11.4. Notice of Redemption. 

Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 1.6, within a Specified Period prior to the Redemption
Date, unless a shorter period is specified in the Securities to be redeemed, to the Holders of Securities to be redeemed. Failure to give notice by mailing in the manner herein provided to the Holder of any Registered Securities designated for
redemption as a whole or in part, or any defect in the notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities or portion thereof. 

Any notice that is mailed to the Holder of any Registered Securities in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have
been duly given, whether or not such Holder receives the notice. 
 All notices of redemption shall state: 

(1) the Redemption Date, 
 (2) the Redemption Price, 
 (3) if less than all Outstanding Securities of any
series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amount) of the particular Security or Securities to be redeemed, 
 (4) in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, the Holder of such
Security will receive, without charge, a new Security or Securities of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed, 
 (5) that, on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price shall become due and payable upon each such Security or portion thereof to be redeemed, and, if applicable, that interest thereon shall cease to
accrue on and after said date, 
 (6) the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the
Redemption Price and any accrued interest, 
 (7) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case, 

  
 53 









 (8) in the case of Securities of any series that are convertible into Common Stock of the
Company or exchangeable for other securities, the conversion or exchange price or rate, the date or dates on which the right to convert or exchange the principal of the Securities of such series to be redeemed will commence or terminate and the
place or places where such Securities may be surrendered for conversion or exchange, and 
 (9) the CUSIP number or the
Euroclear or Cedel reference numbers of such Securities, if any (or any other numbers used by a Depository to identify such Securities). 
 A notice of redemption published as contemplated by Section 1.6 need not identify particular Registered Securities to be redeemed. 

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
request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. 
 Section 11.5. Deposit of Redemption Price. 

On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit, with respect to the Securities of any series called for redemption pursuant
to Section 11.4, with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.3) an amount of money in the applicable Currency sufficient
to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date, unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.1 or in the Securities of such series) any accrued interest on, all such Securities or
portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date. 
 Section 11.6. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and
payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such
Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with any accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that, except as otherwise specified in or
pursuant to this Indenture or the Registered Securities of such series, installments of interest on Registered Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more
Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the Regular Record Dates therefor according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.7. 

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any premium until
paid, shall bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 
 Section 11.7. Securities Redeemed
in Part. 
 Any Registered Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at any Office or Agency for
such Security (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing) and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Registered Security or Securities of the same series, containing identical terms and provisions, of
any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. If a Security in global form is so surrendered, the Company
shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the U.S. Depository or other Depository for such Security in global form as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, without service charge, a new
Security in global form in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security in global form so surrendered.

 Section 11.8. Cancellation and Destruction of Securities 

All Securities redeemed and paid pursuant to the provisions of this Article 11 shall be cancelled and destroyed, as provided in
Section 3.9, and, except in the case of partial redemption of any Security, no Security shall be issued under this Indenture in lieu thereof. 
 ARTICLE 12 
 SINKING FUNDS 

Section 12.1. Applicability of Article. 
 The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series, except as otherwise permitted or required in or pursuant to this Indenture or any
Security of such series issued pursuant to this Indenture. 
 The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the
terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment,” and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of such series is herein referred to as an
“optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.2. Each sinking fund payment shall be
applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series and this Indenture. 

Section 12.2. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 

The Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of any series to be made
pursuant to the terms of such Securities (1) deliver Outstanding Securities of such series (other than any of such Securities previously called for redemption or any of such Securities in respect of which cash shall have been released to the
Company) and (2) apply as a credit Securities of such series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such series of Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund
payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, provided that such series of Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such
Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. If, as a result of the delivery or credit of Securities of any series in lieu of cash payments pursuant to this
Section 12.2, the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed in order to satisfy the remaining sinking fund payment shall be less than $100,000, the Trustee need not call Securities of such series for redemption, except
upon Company Request, and such cash payment shall be held by the Trustee or a Paying Agent and applied to the next succeeding sinking fund payment, provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall at the request of the Company from
time to time pay over and deliver to the Company any cash payment so being held by the Trustee or such Paying Agent upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of Securities of that series purchased by the Company having an unpaid principal amount
equal to the cash payment requested to be released to the Company. 
 Section 12.3. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

 Not less than 75 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company shall deliver
to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next, ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and
the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting of Securities of that series pursuant to Section 12.2, and the optional amount, if any, to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund
payment, and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so credited and not theretofore delivered. If such Officers’ Certificate shall specify an optional amount to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment,
the Company shall thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein specified. Not less than 60 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner
specified in Section 11.3 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  

  
 55 









 
11.4. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Section 11.6 and Section 11.7.

 ARTICLE 13 
 REPAYMENT AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS 
 Section 13.1. Applicability of Article.

 Securities of any series which are repayable at the option of the Holders thereof before their Stated Maturity shall
be repaid in accordance with the terms of the Securities of such series. The repayment of any principal amount of Securities pursuant to such option of the Holder to require repayment of Securities before their Stated Maturity, for purposes of
Section 3.9, shall not operate as a payment, redemption or satisfaction of the Indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the Company, at its option, shall deliver or surrender the same to the Trustee with a directive
that such Securities be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 13.1, in connection with any repayment of Securities, the Company may arrange for the purchase of any Securities by an agreement with
one or more investment bankers or other purchasers to purchase such Securities by paying to the Holders of such Securities on or before the close of business on the repayment date an amount not less than the repayment price payable by the Company on
repayment of such Securities, and the obligation of the Company to pay the repayment price of such Securities shall be satisfied and discharged to the extent such payment is so paid by such purchasers. 

ARTICLE 14 

SECURITIES IN FOREIGN CURRENCIES 
 Section 14.1. Applicability of Article. 
 Whenever this Indenture
provides for (1) any action by, or the determination of any of the rights of, Holders of Securities of any series in which not all of such Securities are denominated in the same Currency, or (ii) any distribution to Holders of Securities,
in the absence of any provision to the contrary in the form of Security of any particular series or pursuant to this Indenture or the Securities, any amount in respect of any Security denominated in a Currency other than Dollars shall be treated for
any such action or distribution as that amount of Dollars that could be obtained for such amount on such reasonable basis of exchange and as of the record date with respect to Registered Securities of such series (if any) for such action,
determination of rights or distribution (or, if there shall be no applicable record date, such other date reasonably proximate to the date of such action, determination of rights or distribution) as the Company may specify in a written notice to the
Trustee. 
 ARTICLE 15 
 MEETINGS OF HOLDERS OF SECURITIES 
 Section 15.1. Purposes for Which Meetings May Be
Called. 
 A meeting of Holders of Securities of any series may be called at any time and from time to time pursuant to
this Article, to make, give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act provided by this Indenture or under applicable law, to be made, given or taken by Holders of Securities of such series.

 Section 15.2. Call, Notice and Place of Meetings. 
 (1) The Trustee may at any time call a meeting of Holders of Securities of any series for any purpose specified in Section 15.1, to be held at such time and at such place in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York. Notice of every meeting of Holders of Securities of any series, setting forth the time and the place of such meeting and in general terms the action proposed to be taken at such meeting, shall be given, in the manner

specified in Section 15.1, by written request setting forth in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at the meeting, and the Trustee shall not have mailed notice of or made the first publication of the notice of such meeting
within 21 days after receipt of such request (whichever shall be required pursuant to Section 1.6) or shall not thereafter proceed to cause the meeting to be held as provided herein, then the Company or the Holders of Securities of such
series in the amount above specified, as the case may be, may determine the time and the place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York for such meeting and may call such meeting for such purposes by giving notice thereof as provided in
clause (1) of this Section.

to be present or to speak at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series shall be the Persons entitled to vote at such meeting and their counsel, any representatives of the Trustee and its counsel, and any representatives of the Company and
its counsel. 
 Section 15.4. Quorum; Action. 
 The Persons entitled to vote a Specified Percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the relevant series shall constitute a quorum for any meeting of Holders of Securities of
such series. In the absence of a quorum within 30 minutes after the time appointed for any such meeting, the meeting shall, if convened at the request of Holders of Securities of such series, be dissolved. In any other case the meeting may be
adjourned for a period of not less than a Specified Period, as determined by the chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such meeting. In the absence of a quorum at any reconvened meeting, such reconvened meeting may be further adjourned
for a period of not less than a specified Period, as determined by the chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such reconvened meeting. Notice of the reconvening of any adjourned meeting shall be given as provided in

expressly the percentage, as provided above, of the principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series which shall constitute a quorum. 
 Except as limited by the proviso to Section 9.2, any resolution presented to a meeting or adjourned meeting duly reconvened at which a quorum is present as aforesaid may be adopted only by the
affirmative vote of the Holders of a Specified Percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; provided, however, that, except as limited by the proviso to Section 9.2, any resolution with respect to any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act which this Indenture expressly provides may be made, given or taken by the Holders of a specified percentage, which is less than a Specified Percentage, in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series may be adopted at a meeting or an adjourned meeting duly reconvened and at which a quorum is present as aforesaid by the affirmative vote of the Holders of such specified percentage in principal

represented at the meeting. 
 Section 15.5. Determination of Voting Rights; Conduct and Adjournment of Meetings. 

(1) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for
any meeting of Holders of Securities of such series in regard to proof of the holding of Securities of such series and of the appointment of proxies and in regard to the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and examination
of proxies, certificates and other evidence of the right to vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting as it shall deem appropriate. Except as otherwise 

  
 57 









 
permitted or required by any such regulations, the holding of Securities shall be proved in the manner specified in Section 1.4 and the appointment of any proxy shall be proved in the
manner specified in Section 1.4. Such regulations may provide that written instruments appointing proxies, regular on their face, may be presumed valid and genuine without the proof specified in Section 1.4 or other proof.

 (2) The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall
have been called by the Company or by Holders of Securities as provided in Section 15.2(2), in which case the Company or the Holders of Securities of the series calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like manner appoint a
temporary chairman. A permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the meeting shall be elected by vote of the Persons entitled to vote a Specified Percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the
meeting. 
 (3) At any meeting, each Holder of a Security of such series or proxy shall be entitled to one vote for each $1,000
principal amount of Securities of such series held or represented by him or such other amount established pursuant to Section 3.1; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in respect of any Security
challenged as not Outstanding and ruled by the chairman of the meeting to be not Outstanding. The chairman of the meeting shall have no right to vote, except as a Holder of a Security of such series or proxy. 

(4) Any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series duly called pursuant to Section 15.2 at which a quorum is present may
be adjourned from time to time by Persons entitled to vote a Specified Percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting; and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice.

 Section 15.6. Counting Votes and Recording Action of Meetings. 

The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series shall be by written ballots on which shall be
subscribed the signatures of the Holders of Securities of such series or of their representatives by proxy and the principal amounts and serial numbers of the Outstanding Securities of such series held or represented by them. The permanent chairman
of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count all votes cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make and file with the secretary of the meeting their verified written reports in triplicate of all votes
cast at the meeting. A record, at least in triplicate, of the proceedings of each meeting of Holders of Securities of any series shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the original reports of the
inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more persons having knowledge of the facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that said notice was given as provided in

to the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee, the latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted at the meeting. Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated. 

Section 15.7. Preservation of Rights of Trustee and Holders. 
 Nothing contained in this Article 15 shall be deemed or construed to authorize or permit, by reason of any call of a meeting of Holders of any or all series or any rights expressly or impliedly
conferred hereunder to make such call, any hindrance or delay in the exercise of any right or rights conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of any or all series under any of the provisions of this Indenture or of such series of
