Series shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and the date from which interest, if any, shall accrue, and except
as may otherwise be provided in or pursuant to such Board Resolutions and set forth in such Officer’s Certificate relating thereto
or provided in or pursuant to any supplemental indenture hereto. All Securities of any one Series need not be issued at the same
time and may be issued from time to time, consistent with the terms of this Indenture, if so provided by or pursuant to the Board Resolution,
supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate referred to above.


 


Section 2.3.
Execution and Authentication.


 


Any
Officer shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual, facsimile or other electronic (including .pdf) signature (including any electronic
signature covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act
or other applicable law, e.g., www.docusign.com).


 


If an Officer whose signature
is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Security is authenticated, the Security shall nevertheless be valid.


 


A Security shall not be valid
until authenticated by the manual signature of an authorized signatory of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. The signature shall
be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture.


 


The Trustee shall at any time,
and from time to time, authenticate Securities for original issue in the principal amount provided in the Board Resolution, supplemental
indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate, upon receipt by the Trustee of a Company Order. Each Security shall be dated the date
of its authentication.


 


The aggregate principal amount
of Securities of any Series outstanding at any time may not exceed any limit upon the maximum principal amount for such Series set
forth in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.2,
except as provided in Section 2.8.


 


Prior to the issuance of Securities
of any Series, the Trustee shall have received and (subject to Section 7.2) shall be fully protected in relying on: (a) the
Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate establishing the form of the Securities of that Series or
of Securities within that Series and the terms of the Securities of that Series or of Securities within that Series, (b) an
Officer’s Certificate complying with Section 10.4, and (c) an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section 10.4.


 


The Trustee shall have the
right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities of such Series: (a) if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines
that such action may not be taken lawfully; or (b) if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that such action would expose the
Trustee to personal liability to Holders of any then outstanding Series of Securities.


 


The Trustee may appoint an
authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. An authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever
the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating
agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company.

Section 2.4.
Registrar and Paying Agent.


  


The Company shall maintain,
with respect to each Series of Securities, at the place or places specified with respect to such Series pursuant to Section 2.2,
an office or agency where Securities of such Series may be presented or surrendered for payment (“Paying Agent”),
where Securities of such Series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange (“Registrar”) and
where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of such Series and this Indenture may be delivered
(“Notice Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register with respect to each Series of Securities and to their transfer
and exchange. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the name and address, and any change in the name or address,
of each Registrar, Paying Agent or Notice Agent. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required Registrar, Paying
Agent or Notice Agent or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the name and address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices
and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent
to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands; provided, that the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee shall
not be a place of service of legal process on the Company.


 


The Company may also from
time to time designate one or more co-registrars, additional paying agents or additional notice agents and may from time to time rescind
such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligations
to maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent and Notice Agent in each place so specified pursuant to Section 2.2 for Securities of
any Series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and
of any change in the name or address of any such co-registrar, additional paying agent or additional notice agent. The term “Registrar”
includes any co-registrar; the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent; and the term “Notice
Agent” includes any additional notice agent. The Company or any of its Affiliates may serve as Registrar or Paying Agent.


 


The Company hereby appoints
the Trustee the initial Registrar, Paying Agent and Notice Agent for each Series unless another Registrar, Paying Agent or Notice
Agent, as the case may be, is appointed prior to the time Securities of that Series are first issued.


 


Section 2.5.
Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.


 


The Company shall require
each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust, for the benefit of Securityholders
of any Series of Securities, or the Trustee, all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the
Series of Securities, and will notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any
such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may
require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the
Company or a Subsidiary of the Company) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company acts
as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of Securityholders of any Series of Securities
all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Company, the Trustee
shall serve as Paying Agent for the Securities.


 


Section 2.6.
Securityholder Lists.


 


The Trustee shall
preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of
Securityholders of each Series of Securities and shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the
Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least ten days before each interest payment date and at such other times as
the Trustee may request in writing a list, in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and
addresses of Securityholders of each Series of Securities.


 






    10


     


    

 


Section 2.7.
Transfer and Exchange.


 


Where Securities of a Series are
presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of
Securities of the same Series, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange if its requirements for such transactions
are met. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Registrar’s request.
No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the
Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith
(other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Section 2.11, 3.6
or 9.6).


 


Neither the Company nor the
Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange Securities of any Series for the period beginning
at the opening of business 15 days immediately preceding the sending of a notice of redemption of Securities of that Series selected
for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day such notice is sent, or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange
Securities of any Series selected, called or being called for redemption as a whole or the portion being redeemed of any such Securities
selected, called or being called for redemption in part.


 


Section 2.8.
Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.


 


If any mutilated Security
is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security
of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.


 


If there shall be delivered
to the Company and the Trustee (a) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (b) such
security or indemnity bond as may be required by each of them to hold itself and any of its agents 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 receipt
of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security,
a new Security of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.


 


In case any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing
a new Security, pay such Security following delivery of the documents and security or indemnity required in the preceding paragraph.


 


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


 


Every new Security of any
Series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional
contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone,
and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that Series duly
issued hereunder.


 


The provisions of this Section are
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.


 






    11


     


    

 


Section 2.9.
Outstanding Securities.


  


The Securities outstanding
at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation,
those reductions in the interest on a Global Security effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof and those described
in this Section as not outstanding, including those paid in accordance with the third-to-last paragraph of Section 2.8.


 


If a Security is replaced
pursuant to Section 2.8, it ceases to be outstanding until the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced
Security is held by a bona fide purchaser.


 


If the Paying Agent (other
than the Company, a Subsidiary of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds on the Maturity of Securities of a Series money
sufficient to pay such Securities payable on that date as provided in this Indenture, then on and after that date such Securities of the
Series cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.


 


The Company may purchase or
otherwise acquire the Securities, whether by open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise. A Security does not cease to
be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security (but see Section 2.10 below).


 


In determining whether the
Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Securities have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent or waiver hereunder, the principal amount of a Discount Security that shall be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes shall
be the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of such determination upon a declaration of acceleration
of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.2.


 


Section 2.10.
Treasury Securities.


 


In determining whether the
Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Securities of a Series have given any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent or waiver hereunder, Securities of a Series owned by the Company, any Guarantor, or any other obligor upon the Securities
of such Series or any Affiliate of the Company or any Guarantor or any of the other obligors shall be disregarded, except that for
the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent or waiver, only Securities of a Series that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.


 


Section 2.11.
Temporary Securities.


 


Until definitive Securities
are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities upon a Company Order. Temporary
Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate
for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee upon receipt of a Company Order shall
authenticate definitive Securities of the same Series and date of maturity in exchange for temporary Securities. Until so exchanged,
temporary securities shall have the same rights under this Indenture as the definitive Securities.


 


Any temporary Global Security
and any permanent Global Security shall, unless otherwise provided therein, be delivered to the Depositary designated pursuant to Section 2.2
or shall be held by the Custodian on behalf of such Depositary.


 






    12


     


    

 


Section 2.12.
Cancellation.


  


The Company at any time may
deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered
to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Securities surrendered for transfer, exchange,
payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of such canceled Securities in accordance with its then customary procedures (subject
to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act and the Trustee) and deliver a certificate of such cancellation to the Company
upon written request of the Company. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that it has paid or delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation.


 


Section 2.13.
Defaulted Interest.


 


If the Company defaults in
a payment of interest on a Series of Securities, it shall pay the defaulted interest, plus, to the extent permitted by law, any interest
payable on the defaulted interest, to the persons who are Securityholders of the Series on a subsequent special record date. The
Company shall fix the record date and payment date. At least ten days before the special record date, the Company shall send to the Trustee
and to each Securityholder of the Series a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of interest
to be paid. The Company may pay defaulted interest in any other lawful manner.


 


Section 2.14.
Global Securities.


 


Section 2.14.1.
Terms of Securities. A Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officer’s Certificate shall establish whether
the Securities of a Series shall be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities and the Depositary for
such Global Security or Securities.


 


Section 2.14.2.
Transfer and Exchange. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in Section 2.7 of the Indenture and
in addition thereto, any Global Security shall be exchangeable pursuant to Section 2.7 of the Indenture for Securities registered
in the names of Holders other than the Depositary for such Security or its nominee only if (a) such Depositary notifies the Company
that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a clearing
agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, the Company fails to appoint a successor Depositary registered as a clearing
agency under the Exchange Act within 90 days of such event or (b) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate stating that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable. Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding
sentence shall be exchangeable for Securities registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct in writing in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security with like tenor and terms.


 


Except as provided
in this Section 2.14.2, a Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary with respect to such
Global Security to a nominee of such Depositary, by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary
or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such a successor Depositary.


 


Section 2.14.3.
Legend. Any Global Security issued hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:


 


“THIS SECURITY
IS A GLOBAL SECURITY WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF THE DEPOSITARY OR A
NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY. THIS SECURITY IS EXCHANGEABLE FOR SECURITIES REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A PERSON OTHER THAN THE DEPOSITARY OR
ITS NOMINEE ONLY IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY
TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY, BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY
OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY.”


 






    13


     


    

 


In addition, so
long as The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) is the Depositary, each Global Note registered in the name of DTC or its
nominee shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:


 


“UNLESS THIS
GLOBAL NOTE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (“DTC”),
TO THE COMPANY OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY GLOBAL NOTE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF
CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE &
CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE
OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.”


 


Section 2.14.4.
Acts of Holders. The Depositary, as a Holder, may appoint agents and otherwise authorize participants to give or take any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action which a Holder is entitled to give or take under the Indenture.


 


Section 2.14.5.
Payments. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.2,
payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on any Global Security shall be made to the Holder thereof.


 


Section 2.14.6.
Consents, Declaration and Directions. The Company, the Trustee and any Agent shall be entitled to conclusively treat a person as
the absolute owner of such principal amount of outstanding Securities of such Series represented by a Global Security as shall be
specified in a written statement of the Depositary or by the applicable procedures of the Depositary with respect to such Global Security,
for purposes of obtaining any consents, declarations, waivers or directions required to be given by the Holders pursuant to this Indenture.


 


Section 2.15.
CUSIP Numbers.


 


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

ARTICLE III.

REDEMPTION


 


Section 3.1.
Notice to Trustee.


 


The Company may, with respect
to any Series of Securities, reserve the right to redeem and pay the Series of Securities or may covenant to redeem and pay
the Series of Securities or any part thereof prior to the Stated Maturity thereof at such time and on such terms as provided for
in such Securities. If a Series of Securities is redeemable and the Company wants or is obligated to redeem prior to the Stated Maturity
thereof all or part of the Series of Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, it shall notify the Trustee in writing
of the redemption date and the principal amount of the Series of Securities to be redeemed. The Company shall give the notice at
least 15 days before the redemption date (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Trustee).


 


Section 3.2.
Selection of Securities to be Redeemed.


 


Unless otherwise indicated
for a particular Series by a Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate, if less than all the
Securities of a Series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Securities of the Series to be redeemed in any manner
that the Trustee deems fair and appropriate, including by lot or other method, unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange
requirements (as certified by the Company to the Trustee), subject, in the case of Global Securities, to the applicable rules and
procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee shall make the selection from Securities of the Series outstanding not previously called
for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities of the Series that have denominations
larger than $1,000. Securities of the Series and portions of them it selects shall be in minimum amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples
of $1,000 thereof or, with respect to Securities of any Series issuable in other denominations pursuant to Section 2.2.10,
the minimum principal denomination for each Series and the authorized integral multiples thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that
apply to Securities of a Series called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities of that Series called for redemption.


 


Section 3.3.
Notice of Redemption.


 


Unless otherwise indicated
for a particular Series by Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officer’s Certificate, at least 15 days
but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company shall send or cause to be sent by first class mail or electronically,
in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed, with a
copy to the Trustee.


 


The notice shall identify
the Securities of the Series to be redeemed and shall state:


 


		a.	the redemption date;



 


		b.	the redemption price;



 


		c.	the name and address of the Paying Agent;



 


		d.	if any Securities are being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Securities to
be redeemed and that, after the redemption date and upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities in principal amount
equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Security shall be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original
Security;



 






    15


     


    

 


		e.	that Securities of the Series called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect
the redemption price;



 


		f.	that interest on Securities of the Series called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the
redemption date;



 


		g.	the CUSIP number, if any; and



 


		h.	any other information as may be required by the terms of the particular Series or the Securities
of a Series being redeemed.



 


At the Company’s
written request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided,
however, that the Company has delivered to the Trustee, at least five days (unless a shorter time shall be acceptable to the
Trustee) prior to the notice date, such notice and an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and
setting forth the information to be stated in such notice in the form of such notice.


 


Section 3.4.
Effect of Notice of Redemption.


 


Once notice of redemption
is sent as provided in Section 3.3, Securities of a Series called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption
date and at the redemption price. Except as otherwise provided in the supplemental indenture, Board Resolution or Officer’s Certificate
for a Series, a notice of redemption may not be conditional. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the
redemption price plus accrued interest, if any, to the redemption date.


 


Section 3.5.
Deposit of Redemption Price.


 


On or before 11:00 a.m.,
New York City time, on the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price
of and accrued interest, if any, on all Securities to be redeemed on that date.


 


Section 3.6.
Securities Redeemed in Part.


 


In connection with any Security
held in physical form, upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Company shall execute and, upon receipt of a Company
Order in accordance with Section 2.3 and the other deliverables required hereunder from the Company, the Trustee shall authenticate
for the Holder at the expense of the Company a new Security of the same Series and the same Maturity equal in principal amount to
the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered; provided, that each new Security will be issued in a minimum principal amount
of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. In the case of any Security held in global form, the records of the Trustee
and/or Registrar shall reflect that the Security has been redeemed in part.

may by rules and regulations prescribe) which STAG Industrial, Inc. is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13
or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. STAG Industrial, Inc. shall also comply with the other provisions of TIA Section 314(a).
Reports, information and documents filed with the SEC via the EDGAR system (or its successor) will be deemed to be delivered to the Trustee
as of the time of such filing for purposes of this Section 4.2; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have no obligation
whatsoever to determine whether or not such information, documents or reports have been filed via EDGAR.


 


Delivery of reports,
information and documents to the Trustee under this Section 4.2 is for informational purposes only and the
Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive or actual notice of any information contained therein or
determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to
which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates). The Trustee shall have no responsibility for the
filing, timeliness or content of any reports, information or documents. The Trustee shall have no obligation to determine whether or
not such reports, information or documents have been filed pursuant to the SEC’s EDGAR filing system (or its successor) or
postings to any website have occurred, and the Trustee shall have no duty to participate in or monitor any conference calls.

within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, an Officer’s Certificate stating that a review of the activities
of STAG Industrial, Inc., the Company and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of
the signing Officer with a view to determining whether the Company and any Guarantor has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations
under this Indenture, and further stating, as to such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of such Officer’s knowledge
the Company and any Guarantor has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not
in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions hereof (or, if a Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which such Officer may have knowledge and the nature and status
thereof).


 


The Company will, so long
as any of the Securities are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, promptly upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an
Officer’s Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with
respect thereto.

The Company and the Guarantors
covenant (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that they will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim
or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may
affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture or the Securities and the Company and the Guarantors (to the extent they may
lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that they will not, by resort to any such

not have the benefit of said Event of Default:


 


		a.	default in the payment of any interest upon any Security of that Series when it becomes due and payable,

		b.	default in the payment of principal of any Security of that Series at its Maturity; or



 






    19


     


    

  


		c.	default in the performance or breach of any covenant or warranty of the Company in the Securities of that
Series or this Indenture (other than defaults pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above or pursuant to
a covenant or warranty that has been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of a Series of Securities other than that
Series), which default continues uncured for a period of 60 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to
the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding
Securities of that Series a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such

		i.	commences a voluntary case,

		f.	any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that Series, which is specified in a
Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officer’s Certificate, in accordance with Section 2.2.18.



 


The term “Bankruptcy
Law” means title 11, U.S. Code or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian”
means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.


 


Section 6.2.
Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.


 


If an Event of Default with
respect to Securities of any Series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default referred to
in Section 6.1(d) or (e)), then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal
amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series may declare the principal amount (or, if any Securities of that Series are
Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such Securities) of and accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, on all of the Securities of that Series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company
(and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or such specified amount) and accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(d) or
(e), shall occur, the principal amount (or specified amount) of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Securities
shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.


 






    20


     


    

 


At any time after such a declaration
of acceleration with respect to 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 a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities
of that Series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences, including
any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration, if all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that Series,
other than the non-payment of the principal and interest, if any, of Securities of that Series which have become due solely by such
declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.13.


 


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


 


Section 6.3.
Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.


 


The Company covenants that
if:


 


		a.	default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable
and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or



 


		b.	default is made in the payment of principal of any Security at the Maturity thereof, or



 


		c.	default is made in the deposit of any sinking fund payment when and as due by the terms of a Security,



 


then, the Company and the Guarantors shall,
upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on
such Securities for principal and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest
on any overdue principal and any overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and, in addition
thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.


 


If the Company or the Guarantors
fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a
judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may
enforce the same against the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon such Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or deemed
to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon such Securities,
wherever situated.


 


If an Event of Default with
respect to any Securities of any Series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may 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 in aid
of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

Section 6.4.
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 or the property of the Company or of 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 overdue principal or
interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,


 


		a.	to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal or, if the Securities of such Series are
Discount Securities, such amounts as may be due and payable with respect to such Securities pursuant to an acceleration in accordance
with Section 6.2, and interest owing and unpaid 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 and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and



 


		b.	to collect and receive any moneys 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 to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that such payments shall be made directly to
the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7.



 


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


 


Section 6.5.
Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.


 


All rights of action and
claims under this Indenture or 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 of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of
the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.


 


Section 6.6.
Application of Money Collected.


 


Any money or property 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 or property on account of principal 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:


 






    22


     


    

 


First: To the payment of all
amounts due the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) under Section 7.7; and


 


Second: To the payment of
the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and interest on the Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money
has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for
principal and interest, respectively; and


 


Third: To the Company or the
Guarantors, as applicable.


 


Section 6.7.
Limitation on Suits.


 


No Holder of any Security
of any Series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any remedy hereunder, unless


 


		a.	such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect
to the Securities of that Series;



 


		b.	the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that 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;



 


		c.	such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to the
Trustee against the costs, claims, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by the Trustee in compliance with such request;



 


		d.	the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed
to institute any such proceeding; and



 


		e.	no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period
by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series;



 


it being understood, intended and expressly covenanted
by the Holder of every Security with every other Holder and the Trustee 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 to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other
of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such 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 of the applicable Series (it
being expressly understood that the Trustee shall not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether such action is prejudicial).


  


Section 6.8.
Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal 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 and interest, if any, on such Security on the Maturity of such Security, including the Stated Maturity expressed in
such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the redemption date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and
such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.


 






    23


     


    

  


Section 6.9.
Restoration of Rights and Remedies.


 


If the Trustee or any Holder
has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned
for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination
in such proceeding, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former
positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding
had been instituted.


 


Section 6.10.
Rights and Remedies Cumulative.


 


Except as otherwise provided
with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in Section 2.8, no right or
remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and
every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder
or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise,
shall not, to the extent permitted by law, prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.


 


Section 6.11.
Delay or Omission Not Waiver.


 


No delay or omission of the
Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities 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 the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or
by the Holders, as the case may be.


 


Section 6.12.
Control by Holders.


 


The Holders of 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:


 


		a.	such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture;



 


		b.	the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such
direction;



 


		c.	the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith
shall, by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability,
the direction is in conflict with any law or this Indenture, or the direction would be unduly prejudicial to the Holders of such Series not
joining therein provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent
with such direction (it being expressly understood that the Trustee shall not
have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether such action is prejudicial); and



 


		d.	prior to taking any action as directed under this Section 6.12, the Trustee shall receive
indemnity or security satisfactory to it against the costs, claims, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance
with such request or direction.



 






    24


     


    

 



 


Section 6.13.
Waiver of Past Defaults.


 


The Holders of not less than
a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of
such Series, by written notice to the Trustee and the Company, waive any past Default hereunder with respect to such Series and its
consequences, except a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security of such Series (provided, however,
that the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series may rescind an acceleration and
its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration). Upon any such waiver, such Default shall
cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but
no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.


 


Section 6.14.
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, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such
suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against
any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant;
but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Company, to any suit instituted by the Trustee,
to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the outstanding
Securities of any Series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on
any Security on or after the Maturity of such Security, including the Stated Maturity expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption,
on the redemption date).

Section 7.1.
Duties of Trustee.


 


		a.	If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers
vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use

and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; however, in the case of any such Officer’s Certificates or Opinions of Counsel which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee,
the Trustee shall examine such Officer’s Certificates and Opinions of Counsel to determine whether or not they conform to the form

suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee may require and conclusively rely upon an Officer’s Certificate and/or an
Opinion of Counsel.

other person employed to act hereunder.



 


		g.	The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this
Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of Securities unless such Holders shall have offered, and, if requested, provided

of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters
as it may see fit.



 


		i.	The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible

Section 7.3.
Individual Rights of Trustee.


 


The Trustee in its individual
or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company

Sections 7.10 and 7.11.


 


Section 7.4.
Trustee’s Disclaimer.


 


The Trustee makes no representation
as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds

    28


     


    

 


Section 7.5.
Notice of Defaults.


 


If a Default or Event of Default
occurs and is continuing with respect to the Securities of any Series and if it is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee, the Trustee shall deliver to each Securityholder of the Securities of that Series, in the manner set forth in Section 10.2,
notice of a Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs or, if later, after a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has
knowledge of such Default or Event of Default. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest
on any Security of any Series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding
the notice is in the interests of Securityholders of that Series.


 


Section 7.6.
Reports by Trustee to Holders.


 


Within 60 days after
May 15 of each year, the Trustee shall transmit to all Securityholders, as their names and addresses appear on the register kept
by the Registrar, a brief report dated as of such anniversary date, in accordance with, and to the extent required under, TIA Section 313.


 


A copy of each report at the
time of its delivery to Securityholders of any Series shall be filed with the SEC and each national securities exchange on which
the Securities of that Series are listed. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing when Securities of any Series are
listed or de-listed on any national securities exchange and of any delisting thereof.


 


Section 7.7.
Compensation and Indemnity.


 


The Company shall pay to the
Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) from time to time compensation for its services as the Company and the Trustee shall from time
to time agree upon in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express
trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee and Agents upon request for all reasonable disbursements, out-of-pocket expenses and advances
incurred or made by it. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents
and counsel.


 


The Company shall indemnify
each of the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) and any predecessor Trustee (including the cost of defending itself) against any
cost, claim, expense or liability, including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee)
incurred by it except as set forth in the next paragraph in the performance of its duties under this Indenture as Trustee or Agent. The
Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company
shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under this Section 7.7. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee
shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel of its selection and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and
expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. This indemnification shall apply to officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents of the Trustee (acting in any capacity
hereunder).


 


The Company need not reimburse
any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee or by any officer, director, employee, shareholder or agent
of the Trustee through willful misconduct or negligence, as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.


 


To secure the Company’s
payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities of any Series on all money or property
held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Securities of that Series.


 






    29


     


    

 


When the Trustee incurs expenses
or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(d) or (e) occurs, the expenses and
the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.


 


The provisions of this Section shall
survive the termination of this Indenture and the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee.


 


Section 7.8.
Replacement of Trustee.


 


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


 


The Trustee may resign with
respect to the Securities of one or more Series by so notifying the Company at least 30 days prior to the date of the proposed
resignation and the retiring or resigning Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for the action or inaction of any successor
Trustee. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any Series may remove the Trustee with respect to that
Series by so notifying the Trustee and the Company. The Company may remove the Trustee with respect to Securities of one or more
Series if:


 


		a.	the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;



 


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



 


		c.	a Custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or



 


		d.	the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.



 


If the Trustee resigns or
is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within
one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may
appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.


 


If a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of any one or more Series does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or
is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities of the applicable
Series may, at the Company’s sole cost and expense, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Trustee. A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Immediately
after that, the retiring Trustee shall transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee subject to the lien provided
for in Section 7.7, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall
have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee with respect to each Series of Securities for which it is acting as Trustee
under this Indenture. A successor Trustee shall deliver a notice of its succession to each Securityholder of each such Series. Notwithstanding
replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.8, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.7 hereof
shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee with respect to expenses and liabilities incurred by it for actions taken or omitted
to be taken in accordance with its rights, powers and duties under this Indenture prior to such replacement.

Section 7.9.
Successor Trustee by Merger, Etc.


 


If the Trustee consolidates
with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or banking
association, the successor corporation or banking association without any further act shall be the successor Trustee, subject to Section 7.10.


 


Section 7.10.
Eligibility; Disqualification.


 


This Indenture shall always
have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA Section 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee shall always have a combined
capital and surplus of at least $25,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply
with TIA Section 310(b). In determining whether the Trustee has a conflicting interest as defined in Section 310(b) of
the TIA with respect to the Securities of any Series, there shall be excluded Securities of any particular Series of Securities other
than that Series.


 


Section 7.11.
Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.


 


The Trustee is subject to
TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed
shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated.

such Series (except as hereinafter provided in this Section 8.1), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall
execute instruments reasonably requested by the Company acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when


 


		a.	either

the Trustee as trust funds in trust an amount of money or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient for the purpose of paying and discharging
the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal and interest to the

Stated Maturity or redemption date, as the case may be;




 


		b.	the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and

with.

been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to clause (a) of this Section, the provisions of Sections 2.4, 2.7,
2.8, 8.2 and 8.5 shall survive.


 


If the Company exercises the
satisfaction and discharge provisions in compliance with this Indenture with respect to Securities of a particular Series that are
entitled to the benefit of the Guarantee of any Guarantor, the Guarantee will terminate with respect to that Series of Securities.

		c.	The Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Order any U.S. Government
Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations or money held by it as provided in Sections 8.3 or 8.4 which, in the
opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants or investment bank expressed in a written certification
thereof delivered to the Trustee, are then in excess of the amount thereof which then would have been required to be deposited for the
purpose for which such U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations or money were deposited or received. This provision
shall not authorize the sale by the Trustee of any U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations held under this Indenture.

Agent is unable to apply any money deposited with respect to Securities of any Series in accordance with Section 8.1
by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining

Series and under the Securities of such Series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to

provided, however, that if the Company has made any payment of principal of or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect
to any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such
Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent after payment in
full to the Holders.

and the Trustee may enter into a supplemental indenture with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount
of the outstanding Securities of each Series affected by such supplemental indenture (including consents obtained in connection with

		f.	make the principal of or interest, if any, on any Security payable in any currency other than that stated
in the Security;



 


		g.	make any change in Section 6.8, 6.13 or 9.3 (this sentence);

Section 9.4.
Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.


 


Every amendment to this Indenture
or the Securities of one or more Series shall be set forth in a supplemental indenture hereto that complies with the TIA as then
in effect.


 


Section 9.5.
Revocation and Effect of Consents.


 


Until an amendment is set
forth in a supplemental indenture or a waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Security is a continuing consent by
the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s
Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent
as to his Security or portion of a Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date of the supplemental indenture
or the date the waiver becomes effective.


 


Any amendment or waiver once
effective shall bind every Securityholder of each Series affected by such amendment or waiver unless it is of the type described
in any of clauses (a) through (h) of Section 9.3 or requires the consent of each Security Holder
affected, as set forth in a supplemental indenture or Officer’s Certificate in respect to a particular Series of Securities.
In that case, the amendment or waiver shall bind each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Security
or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security.


 


The Company may, but shall
not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action
described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately
preceding paragraph, those persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those persons, shall
be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or take any such action, whether or not such persons continue
to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date.


 


Section 9.6.
Notation on or Exchange of Securities.


 


The Company or the Trustee
may place an appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver on any Security of any Series thereafter authenticated. The Company
in exchange for Securities of that Series may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate upon request new Securities of that Series that
reflect the amendment or waiver.


 


Section 9.7.
Trustee Protected.


 


The Trustee will execute and
deliver any amendment or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article IX; provided, however, that the
Trustee need not (but may, in its sole and absolute discretion) execute or deliver any such amendment or supplemental indenture that the
Trustee reasonably concludes adversely affects the Trustee’s rights, duties, liabilities or immunities. In executing, or accepting
the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts
created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall receive, and (subject to Section 7.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon,
an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted
by this Indenture. The Trustee shall sign all supplemental indentures upon delivery of such an Officer’s Certificate or Opinion
of Counsel, except that the Trustee need not sign any supplemental indenture that adversely affects its rights.

Section 10.9.
Counterparts.


 


This Indenture may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be
deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this
Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this
Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. The words
 “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Indenture shall include
images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile, email or other electronic format (including, without limitation,
 “pdf,” “tif” or “jpg”) and other electronic signatures (including without limitation, DocuSign
and AdobeSign). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record
created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and
enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic
Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform
Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code. Without limitation to the foregoing, and anything in this Indenture to
the contrary notwithstanding, (a) any Officer’s Certificate, Company Order, Opinion of Counsel, Security, Guarantee
endorsed on any Security, opinion of counsel, instrument, agreement or other document delivered pursuant to this Indenture may be

elsewhere in this Indenture to the execution, attestation or authentication of any Security, any Guarantee endorsed on any Security,
or any certificate of authentication appearing on or attached to any Security by means of a manual or facsimile signature shall be
deemed to include signatures that are made or transmitted by any of the foregoing electronic means or formats, and (c) any
requirement in this Indenture that any signature be made under a corporate seal (or facsimile thereof) shall not be applicable to
the Securities or any Guarantees endorsed on any Securities. The Company agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of using
digital signatures, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions. The Trustee shall not
have any duty to confirm that the person sending any notice, instruction or other communication (a “Notice”) by
electronic transmission (including by e-mail, facsimile transmission, web portal or other electronic methods) is, in fact, a person
authorized to do so. Electronic signatures believed by the Trustee to comply with the ESIGN Act of 2000 or other applicable law
(including electronic images of handwritten signatures and digital signatures provided by DocuSign, Orbit, Adobe Sign or any other
digital signature provider acceptable to the Trustee) shall be deemed original signatures for all purposes. Each other party assumes
all risks arising out of the use of electronic signatures and electronic methods to send Notices to the Trustee, including without
limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on an unauthorized Notice, and the risk of interception or misuse by third parties.

irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Service of any process,
summons, notice or document by mail (to the extent allowed under any applicable statute or rule of court) to such party’s
address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The
Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders (by their acceptance of the Securities) each hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or other proceeding in the Specified Courts and irrevocably and unconditionally
waive and agree not to plead or claim any such suit, action or other proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Securities in a Foreign Currency.


 


Unless otherwise specified
in a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.2
of this Indenture with respect to a particular Series of Securities, whenever for purposes of this Indenture any action may be taken
by the Holders of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of Securities of all Series or all Series affected by
a particular action at the time outstanding and, at such time, there are outstanding Securities of any Series which are denominated
in more than one currency, then the principal amount of Securities of such Series which shall be deemed to be outstanding for the
purpose of taking such action shall be determined by converting any such other currency into a currency that is designated upon issuance
of any particular Series of Securities. Unless otherwise specified in a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an
Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.2 of this Indenture with respect to a particular Series of
Securities, such conversion shall be made by the Company at the spot rate for the purchase of the designated currency as published in
The Financial Times in the “Currency Rates” section (or, if The Financial Times is no longer published, or if such information
is no longer available in The Financial Times, such source as may be selected in good faith by the Company) on any date of determination.
The provisions of this paragraph shall apply in determining the equivalent principal amount in respect of Securities of a Series denominated
in currency other than Dollars in connection with any action taken by Holders of Securities pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.


 


All decisions and determinations
provided for in the preceding paragraph shall, in the absence of manifest error, to the extent permitted by law, be conclusive for all
purposes and irrevocably binding upon the Trustee and all Holders.

Section 10.16.
Judgment Currency.


 


The Company and each
Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so under applicable law, that (a) if for the purpose of
obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert the sum due in respect of the principal of or interest or other amount on
the Securities of any Series (the “Required Currency”) into a currency in which a judgment will be rendered
(the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking
procedures the Trustee could purchase in The City of New York the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the day on which
final unappealable judgment is entered, unless such day is not a New York Banking Day, then the rate of exchange used shall be the
rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in The City of New York the Required Currency
with the Judgment Currency on the New York Banking Day preceding the day on which final unappealable judgment is entered and
(b) its obligations under this Indenture to make payments in the Required Currency (i) shall not be discharged or
satisfied by any tender, any recovery pursuant to any judgment (whether or not entered in accordance with subsection (a)),
in any currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in the actual
receipt, by the payee, of the full amount of the Required Currency expressed to be payable in respect of such payments,
(ii) shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional cause of action for the purpose of recovering in the Required
Currency the amount, if any, by which such actual receipt shall fall short of the full amount of the Required Currency so expressed
to be payable, and (iii) shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other sum due under this Indenture. For
purposes of the foregoing, “New York Banking Day” means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday in
The City of New York on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close.

is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that opens an account. The parties
to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee with such information as the Trustee may reasonably request in order for the
Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the USA Patriot Act.


 


Section 10.18.
Force Majeure.


 


In no event shall the Trustee
be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly
or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances,
pandemics, epidemics, recognized public emergencies, quarantine restrictions, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions,

shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable

ARTICLE XI.

SINKING FUNDS


 


Section 11.1.
Applicability of Article.


 


The provisions of this Article shall
be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of the Securities of a Series if so provided by the terms of such Securities
pursuant to Section 2.2, except as otherwise permitted or required by any form of Security of such Series issued pursuant
to this Indenture.


 


The minimum amount of any
sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of the Securities of any Series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking
fund payment” and any other 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 11.2. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities
of any Series as provided for by the terms of the Securities of such Series.


 


Section 11.2.
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 to which such sinking fund payment is
applicable (other than any of such Securities previously called for mandatory sinking fund redemption) and (2) apply as credit
Securities of such Series to which such sinking fund payment is applicable and which have been repurchased by the Company or
redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Series of Securities (except pursuant to any
mandatory sinking fund) or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments or other optional redemptions
pursuant to the terms of such Securities; provided, that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such
Securities shall be received by the Trustee, together with an Officer’s Certificate with respect thereto, not later than
15 days prior to the date on which the Trustee begins the process of selecting Securities for redemption, and shall be credited
for such purpose by the Trustee at the 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 in lieu
of cash payments pursuant to this Section 11.2, the principal amount of Securities of such Series to be redeemed in
order to exhaust the aforesaid cash payment shall be less than $100,000, the Trustee need not call Securities of such
Series for redemption, except upon receipt of a Company Order that such action be taken, 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 from time to time upon receipt of a Company Order 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 required to be released to the
Company.


 


Section 11.3.
Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.


 


Not less than 45 days
(unless otherwise indicated in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate in respect of a particular
Series of Securities) prior to each sinking fund payment date for any Series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the
Trustee an Officer’s Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing 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 11.2, and the
optional amount, if any, to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and the Company shall thereupon be obligated
to pay the amount therein specified. Not less than 30 days (unless otherwise indicated in the Board Resolution, Officer’s Certificate
or supplemental indenture in respect of a particular Series of Securities) before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee
shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 3.2 and
cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 3.3.
Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 3.4,
3.5 and 3.6.

		a.	Notwithstanding any provision of this Article XII
                                            to the contrary, the provisions of this Article XII shall be applicable only
                                            to, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Securities of any Series designated, pursuant
                                            to Section 2.2.23, as entitled to the benefits of the Guarantee of each Guarantor
                                            identified in such designation and that has executed a Notation of Guarantee with respect
                                            to such Series.



 


		b.	For value received, each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, fully, unconditionally and
                                                            absolutely guarantees (the “Guarantee”) to the Holders and to the Trustee the due and punctual payment of the
                                                            principal of, premium, if any, and interest on each Series of Securities for which such Guarantor has executed a Notation of
                                                            Guarantee with respect to such Series and all other amounts due and payable under this Indenture and the Securities of such
                                                            Series by the Company, when and as such principal, premium, if any, interest, and such other amounts as shall become due and
                                                            payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, according to the terms
                                                            of such Securities and this Indenture, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 12.3. 






 


		c.	Failing payment when due of any amount guaranteed
                                            pursuant to the Guarantee, for whatever reason, each of the Guarantors will be jointly and
                                            severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that
                                            its obligations hereunder shall be full, unconditional and absolute, irrespective of the
                                            validity, regularity or enforceability of the Securities, the Guarantee (including the Guarantee
                                            of any other Guarantor) or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same,
                                            any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Securities with respect to any provisions hereof
                                            or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company or any other Guarantor, or any
                                            action to enforce the same or any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a
                                            legal or equitable discharge or defense of any of the Guarantors. Each Guarantor hereby agrees
                                            that in the event of a default in payment of the principal of or interest on the Securities
                                            entitled to the Guarantee of such Guarantor, whether at the Stated Maturity or by declaration
                                            of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by
                                            the Trustee on behalf of the Holders or, subject to Section 6.7 by the Holders,
                                            on the terms and conditions set forth in this Indenture, directly against such Guarantor
                                            to enforce the Guarantee without first proceeding against the Company or any other Guarantor.

		d.	Each Guarantor hereby (i) waives diligence,
                                            presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of the merger,
                                            insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or any of the Guarantors, and all demands whatsoever
                                            and (ii) acknowledges that any agreement, instrument or document evidencing the Guarantee
                                            may be transferred and that the benefit of its obligations hereunder shall extend to each
                                            holder of any agreement, instrument or document evidencing the Guarantee without notice to
                                            it. Each Guarantor further agrees that if at any time all or any part of any payment theretofore
                                            applied by any person to the Guarantee is, or must be, rescinded or returned for any reason
                                            whatsoever, including without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of
                                            the Company or any of the Guarantors, the Guarantee shall, to the extent that such payment
                                            is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence notwithstanding
                                            such application, and the Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the
                                            case may be, as though such application had not been made.



 


		e.	Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all
                                            rights of the Holders and the Trustee against the Company in respect of any amounts paid
                                            by such Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture; provided, however, that
                                            such Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or to receive any payments arising out of,
                                            or based upon, such right of subrogation until all of the Securities entitled to the Guarantee
                                            of such Guarantor and the Guarantee shall have been paid in full or discharged.



 


Section 12.2.
Execution and Delivery of Notation of Guarantee.


 


To evidence the Guarantee
of a Guarantor of a Series of Securities, a Notation of Guarantee, executed by either manual or facsimile signature of an Officer
of such Guarantor, shall be affixed on each Security entitled to the benefits of the Guarantee of such Guarantor. If any Officer of any
Guarantor whose signature is on a Notation of Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates a Security
to which such Notation of Guarantee is affixed or at any time thereafter, the Guarantee of such Security shall be valid nevertheless.
The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of any Guarantee
relating to such Security set forth in the Indenture on behalf of the Guarantor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby
agrees that its Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of a Notation of Guarantee being affixed
to such Security.





 


Section 12.3.
Limitation on Guarantors’ Liability.


 


Each Guarantor by its acceptance
hereof and each Holder of Security and the Trustee entitled to the benefits of the Guarantee hereby confirms that it is the intention
of all such parties that the guarantee by such Guarantor pursuant to the Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance
for purposes of any federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each Holder of a Security and the Trustee entitled to
the benefits of the Guarantee and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably agrees that the obligations of each Guarantor under the Guarantee
shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and
to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor
under the Guarantee, not result in the obligations of such Guarantor under the Guarantee constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent
transfer under federal or state law.

Section 12.4.
Release of Guarantors from Guarantee.


 


		a.	Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
                                            Indenture, the Guarantee of any Guarantor may be released upon the terms and subject to the
                                            conditions set forth in Section 8.1, Section 8.3 and this Section 12.4.
                                            Provided that no Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under this Indenture,
                                            the Guarantee incurred by a Guarantor pursuant to this Article XII shall be unconditionally
                                            released and discharged (i) automatically upon (A) any sale, exchange or transfer,
                                            whether by way of merger or otherwise, to any person that is not an Affiliate of the Company,
                                            of all of the Company’s direct or indirect equity interests in such Guarantor (provided,
                                            such sale, exchange or transfer is not prohibited by this Indenture) or (B) the merger
                                            of such Guarantor into the Company or any other Guarantor or the liquidation and dissolution
                                            of such Guarantor (in each case to the extent not prohibited by this Indenture) or (ii) with
                                            respect to any Series of Securities, upon the occurrence of any other condition set
                                            forth in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture or Officer’s Certificate establishing
                                            the terms of such Series.



 


		b.	Upon receipt of a written request of the
                                            Company accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel stating that
                                            any Guarantor is entitled to be released from the Guarantee in accordance with the provisions
                                            of this Indenture, the Trustee shall deliver instruments reasonably requested by the Company
                                            or such Guarantor evidencing the release of such Guarantor from the Guarantee, such instruments
                                            to be prepared by the Company or such Guarantor and delivered to the Trustee. Any Guarantor
                                            not so released shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest on the
                                            Securities entitled to the benefits of the Guarantee as provided in this Indenture, subject
                                            to the limitations of Section 12.3.
