Securities” and, collectively with the Capital Securities, the “Trust Securities”), and to provide the terms and conditions upon which the Securities are to be authenticated, issued and delivered; and

 provided, however, that 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, Securities owned by the Corporation or any other obligor upon the Securities or any Affiliate of the Corporation or such other obligor shall be disregarded and
deemed not to be Outstanding, except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Securities that the Trustee knows to be so owned

that the pledgee is not the Corporation or any other obligor upon the Securities or any Affiliate of the Corporation or such other obligor. Upon the written request of the Trustee, the Corporation shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions, or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but
need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. 
 Section 1.4. Acts of Holders. 

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given to or taken by Holders
may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become
effective when such instrument or instruments is or are delivered to the Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Corporation. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein
sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and
(subject to Section 6.1) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Corporation, if made in the manner provided in this Section. 
 (b) The
fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by the certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of
deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him or her the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a Person acting in other than his or her individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall
also constitute sufficient proof of his or her authority. 
 (c) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or
writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner that the Trustee deems sufficient and in accordance with such reasonable rules as the Trustee may determine. 

(d) The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Securities Register. 
 (e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every
Security issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Corporation in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such
Security. 
 (f) The Corporation may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any
series entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Securities of such series, provided that
the Corporation may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in the next succeeding paragraph. If any record
date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such
record date, provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date (as defined below) by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record
date. Nothing in this paragraph 

  
 -11-









 
shall be construed to prevent the Corporation from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date
previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding
Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Corporation, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the
applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.6. 
 The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default,
(ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 5.2, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 5.7(2), or (iv) any direction referred to in Section 5.12, in each case with respect to
Securities of such series. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or
direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date, provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of
Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph
(whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite
principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Corporation’s expense, shall cause notice of such record
date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Corporation in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.6. 

With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto that sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration
Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day, provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each
Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.6, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party
hereto that set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date. 
 (g) Without limiting
the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which
may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

 Section 1.5. Notices, Etc. to Trustee and Corporation. 

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be
made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, 
 (1) the Trustee by any Holder, any holder of Capital Securities or the Corporation shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust office, or 

(2) the Corporation by the Trustee, any Holder or any holder of Capital Securities shall be sufficient for every purpose (except as otherwise provided in
Section 5.1) hereunder if in writing and mailed, first class, postage prepaid, to the Corporation addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any other address previously
furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Corporation. 
 Section 1.6. Notice to Holders; Waiver. 

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if
in writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Securities Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for
the giving of such notice. If, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service or for any other reason, it shall be impossible or impracticable to mail notice of any event to Holders when said notice is required to be given
pursuant to any provision of this Indenture or of the relevant Securities, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is
given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any
manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but
such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 Section 1.7. Conflict
with Trust Indenture Act. 
 Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Trust Indenture Act shall apply as a matter of contract to this
Indenture for purposes of interpretation, construction and defining the rights and obligations hereunder, and this Indenture, the Corporation, and the Trustee shall be deemed for all purposes hereof to be subject to and governed by the Trust
Indenture Act to the same extent as would be the case if this Indenture were qualified under that Act on the date hereof. Except as otherwise provided herein, if and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts
with the duties imposed by any of Sections 310 to 317, inclusive, of the Trust Indenture Act through operation of Section 318(c) thereof, such imposed duties shall control.

 -25-









 
by the Corporation to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Corporation Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Corporation
Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If the form or terms of the Securities of the series have been established by or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by Sections 2.1 and 3.1, in authenticating such Securities,
and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating,

 (1) if the form of such Securities has been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 2.1, that such form
has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (2) if the terms of such Securities have been established by or
pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 3.1, that such terms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 
 (3) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Corporation in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute
valid and legally binding obligations of the Corporation, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general
equity principles. 
 If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the
issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner that is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1 and of the preceding paragraph, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one
time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.1 or the Corporation Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the
authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued. 
 Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 
 No Security shall be entitled to
any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of one of
its authorized officers, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have
been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Corporation, and the Corporation shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.10, for all purposes of this Indenture such
Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 

  
 -26-









 SECTION 3.4. Temporary Securities. 
 Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Corporation may execute, and upon Corporation Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities that are printed,
lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities of such series in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions,
substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 

If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Corporation will cause definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable
delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at the office or agency of the Corporation designated for that purpose without
charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Corporation shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more definitive Securities of the same series, of
any authorized denominations having the same Original Issue Date and Stated Maturity and having the same terms as such temporary Securities. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same
benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series. 
 SECTION 3.5. Global Securities. 

(a) Each Global Security issued under this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depositary designated by the Corporation for such Global
Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all purposes of this Indenture. 

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and no
transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (i) such Depositary advises the Trustee in writing that such
Depositary is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as Depositary with respect to such Global Security, and the Corporation is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Corporation executes and delivers to
the Trustee a Corporation Order stating that the Corporation elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Depositary, (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, or (iv) in the case of a transfer of a
beneficial interest in such Security to a Person that is not a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act, upon reasonable prior notice of such transfer by the Depositary or its authorized
representative to the Securities Registrar and delivery to the Securities Registrar of a Restricted Securities Certificate duly authorized by the Depositary or its authorized representative to the Securities Registrar and delivery to the Securities
Registrar of a Restricted Securities Certificate duly authorized by the Depositary or its authorized representatives. 
 (c) If any Global
Security is to be exchanged for other Securities or cancelled in whole, it shall be surrendered by or on behalf of the Depositary or its nominee to the Securities Registrar for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article III. If any Global
Security is to be exchanged for other Securities or cancelled in part, or if another Security is to be exchanged in whole or in part for a 

  
 -27-









 
beneficial interest in any Global Security, then either (i) such Global Security shall be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article III or (ii) the
principal amount thereof shall be reduced, subject to Section 3.6(b)(v), or increased by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged or cancelled, or equal to the principal amount of such other Security to be so exchanged for a
beneficial interest therein, as the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Securities Registrar, whereupon the Trustee, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, shall instruct the Depositary or its
authorized representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon any such surrender or adjustment of a Global Security by the Depositary, accompanied by registration instructions, the Trustee shall, subject to Section 3.5(b)
and as otherwise provided in this Article III, authenticate and deliver any Securities issuable in exchange for such Global Security (or any portion thereof) in accordance with the instructions of the Depositary. The Trustee shall not be liable for
any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, such instructions. 
 (d)
Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Article III, Section 9.6 or 11.6 or otherwise, shall be
authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof. 

(e) Securities distributed to holders of Book-Entry Capital Securities (as defined in the applicable Trust Agreement) upon the dissolution of an Issuer
Trust shall be distributed in the form of one or more Global Securities registered in the name of a Depositary or its nominee, and deposited with the Securities Registrar, as custodian for such Depositary, or with such Depositary, for credit by the
Depositary to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of the Securities represented thereby (or such other accounts as they may direct). Securities distributed to holders of Capital Securities other than Book-Entry Capital Securities upon
the dissolution of an Issuer Trust shall not be issued in the form of a Global Security or any other form intended to facilitate book-entry trading in beneficial interests in such Securities. 
 (f) The Depositary or its nominee, as the registered owner of a Global Security, shall be the Holder of such Global Security for all purposes under this Indenture and the Securities, and owners of
beneficial interests in a Global Security shall hold such interests pursuant to the Applicable Procedures. Accordingly, any such owner’s beneficial interest in a Global Security shall be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be
effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or its Agent Members. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Registrar shall have any liability in respect of any transfers effected by the Depositary. 

(g) The rights of owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to those
established by law and agreements between such owners and the Depositary and/or its Agent Members. 
 SECTION 3.6. Registration, Transfer and
Exchange Generally; Certain Transfers and Exchanges; Securities Act Legends. 
 (a) The Corporation shall cause to be kept at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Trustee a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Corporation shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. Such register is herein sometimes referred
to as the “Securities Register.” The Trustee is hereby appointed “Securities Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. 

  
 -28-









 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at the offices or agencies of the Corporation
designated for that purpose the Corporation shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations of like
tenor and aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture. 
 At the option of the Holder,
Securities may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture, upon surrender of the
Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Corporation shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities that the Holder making the exchange is
entitled to receive. 
 All Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Corporation,
evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. 

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

No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Corporation may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Securities. 
 Neither the
Corporation nor the Trustee shall be required, pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day
of selection for redemption of Securities of that series pursuant to Article XI and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of the notice of redemption, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for
redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any such Security to be redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed. 
 (b)
Certain Transfers and Exchanges. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, transfers and exchanges of Securities and beneficial interests in a Global Security shall be made only in accordance with this Section 3.6(b). 

(i) Restricted Non-Global Security to Global Security. If the Holder of a Restricted Security (other than a Global Security) wishes at any time to
transfer all or any portion of such Security to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Security, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with the provisions of this Clause (b)(i) and
subject to the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the Securities Registrar of (A) such Security as provided in Section 3.6(a) and instructions satisfactory to the Securities Registrar directing that a beneficial interest in the Global


  
 -29-









 
Security in a specified principal amount not greater than the principal amount of such Security be credited to a specified Agent Member’s account and (B) a Restricted Securities
Certificate duly executed by such Holder or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, then the Securities Registrar shall cancel such Security (and issue a new Security in respect of any untransferred portion thereof) as provided in
Section 3.6(a) and increase the aggregate principal amount of the Global Security by the specified principal amount as provided as provided in Section 3.5(c). 
 (ii) Non-Global Security to Non-Global Security. A Security that is not a Global Security may be transferred, in whole or in part, to a Person who takes delivery in the form of another Security that is
not a Global Security as provided in Section 3.6(a), provided that if the Security to be transferred in whole or in part is a Restricted Security, the Securities Registrar shall have received a Restricted Securities Certificate duly executed by
the transferor Holder or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 (iii) Exchanges Between Global Security and Non-Global
Security. A beneficial interest in a Global Security may be exchanged for a Security that is not a Global Security as provided in Section 3.5. 
 (iv) Certain Initial Transfers of Non-Global Securities. In the case of Securities initially issued other than in global form, an initial transfer or exchange of such Securities that does not involve any
change in beneficial ownership may be made to an Institutional Accredited Investor or Investors as if such transfer or exchange were not an initial transfer or exchange; provided that written certification shall be provided by the transferee and
transferor of such Securities to the Securities Registrar that such transfer or exchange does not involve a change in beneficial ownership. 

(v) Limitations relating to Principal Amount. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture and unless otherwise specified as permitted by
Section 3.1, Securities or portions thereof may be transferred or exchanged only in principal amounts of not less than $100,000. Any transfer, exchange or other disposition of Securities in contravention of this Section 3.6(b)(v) shall be
deemed to be void and of no legal effect whatsoever, any such transferee shall be deemed not to be the Holder or owner of any beneficial interest in such Securities for any purpose, including but not limited to the receipt of interest payable on
such Securities, and such transferee shall be deemed to have no interest whatsoever in such Securities. 
 (c) Restricted Securities Legend.
Except as set forth below, all Securities shall bear a Restricted Securities Legend: 
 (i) subject to the following Clauses of this
Section 3.6(c), a Security or any portion thereof that is exchanged, upon transfer or otherwise, for a Global Security or any portion thereof shall bear the Restricted Securities Legend while represented thereby; 

(ii) subject to the following Clauses of this Section 3.6(c), a new Security which is not a Global Security and is issued in exchange for another
Security (including a Global Security) or any portion thereof, upon transfer or otherwise, shall bear a Restricted Securities Legend; 
 (iii) a
new Security (other than a Global Security) that does not bear a Restricted Securities Legend may be issued in exchange for or in lieu of a Restricted Security or any portion thereof that bears such a legend if, in the Corporation’s judgment,
placing such a legend upon such new Security is not necessary to ensure compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and the Trustee, at the written direction of the Corporation in the form of an Officers’ Certificate,
shall authenticate and deliver such a new Security as provided in this Article III; 

  
 -30-









 (iv) notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.6(c), a Successor Security of a
Security that does not bear a Restricted Securities Legend shall not bear such form of legend unless the Corporation has reasonable cause to believe that such Successor Security is a “restricted security” within the meaning of Rule 144, in
which case the Trustee, at the written direction of the Corporation in the form of an Officers’ Certificate, shall authenticate and deliver a new Security bearing a Restricted Securities Legend in exchange for such Successor Security as
provided in this Article III; and 
 (v) Securities distributed to a holder of Capital Securities upon dissolution of an Issuer Trust shall bear
a Restricted Securities Legend if the Capital Securities so held bear a similar legend. 
 SECTION 3.7. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen
Securities. 
 If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee together with such security or indemnity as may be required by the
Corporation or the Trustee to save each of them harmless, the Corporation shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, bearing the
same legends, and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 If there shall be delivered to the Corporation and to the Trustee
(i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Corporation or the
Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Corporation shall execute and upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same
series, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount and bearing the same legends as such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 If any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Corporation in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

 Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Corporation 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 issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Corporation, 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 the same series duly issued hereunder.


  
 -31-









 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. 
 SECTION 3.8. Payment of Interest and
Additional Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 
 Interest and Additional Interest on any Security of any series that is payable, and is
punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date, shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest
in respect of Securities of such series, except that, unless otherwise provided in the Securities of such series, interest and any Additional Interest payable on the Stated Maturity of the principal of a Security shall be paid to the Person to whom
principal is paid. The initial payment of interest on any Security of any series that is issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest Payment Date shall be payable as provided in such Security or in the Board Resolution pursuant to
Section 3.1 with respect to the related series of Securities. 
 Any interest on any Security that is due and payable, but is not timely
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities of such series (herein called “Defaulted Interest”), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of
having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Corporation, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below: 
 (1) The Corporation may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series in respect of which interest is in default (or their respective
Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Corporation shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of
Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Corporation shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such
Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as
in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10
days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Corporation of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Corporation, shall cause notice of the proposed
payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first class, postage prepaid, to each Holder of a Security of such series at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Securities Register not less than 10
days prior to such Special Record Date. The Trustee may, in its discretion, in the name and at the expense of the Corporation, cause a similar notice to be published at least once in a newspaper, customarily published in the English language on each
Business Day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, but such publication shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment of such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted
Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such
Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2). 

  
 -32-









 (2) The Corporation may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent
with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of the series in respect of which interest is in default may be listed and, upon such notice as may be required by such exchange (or by the Trustee if the Securities are not
listed), if, after notice given by the Corporation to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest
accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other Security. 
 SECTION 3.9. Persons Deemed Owners. 

The Corporation, the Trustee and any agent of the Corporation or the Trustee shall treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the owner
of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject to Section 3.8) any interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Corporation, the
Trustee nor any agent of the Corporation or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 No holder of any beneficial interest in
any Global Security held on its behalf by a Depositary shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to such Global Security, and such Depositary may be treated by the Corporation, the Trustee and any agent of the Corporation or the
Trustee as the owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Corporation, the Trustee or any agent of the Corporation or the Trustee from giving effect to any written
certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by a Depositary or impair, as between a Depositary and such holders of beneficial interests, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Depositary (or its
nominee) as Holder of any Security. 
 SECTION 3.10. Cancellation. 
 All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee, and any such Securities and Securities
surrendered directly to the Trustee for any such purpose shall be promptly canceled by it. The Corporation may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder that the Corporation
may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section, except as
expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities shall be destroyed by the Trustee and the Trustee shall deliver to the Corporation a certificate of such destruction. 
 SECTION 3.11. Computation of Interest. 
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 3.1 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series for any partial period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and the actual number of days elapsed in any partial month in
such period, and interest on the Securities of each series for a full period shall be computed by dividing the rate per annum by the number of interest periods that together constitute a full twelve months. 

  
 -33-









 SECTION 3.12. Deferrals of Interest Payment Dates. 
 If specified as contemplated by Section 2.1 or Section 3.1 with respect to the Securities of a particular series, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Corporation
shall have the right, at any time during the term of such series, from time to time to defer the payment of interest on such Securities for such period or periods as may be specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 (each, an “Extension
Period”), during which Extension Periods the Corporation shall, if so specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, have the right to make partial payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date. No Extension Period shall end on a date other
than an Interest Payment Date. At the end of any such Extension Period the Corporation shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid on the Securities (together with Additional Interest thereon, if any, at the rate specified for the Securities of
such series to the extent permitted by applicable law); provided, however, that no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities of such series; and provided further, however that during any such
Extension Period, the Corporation shall not (i) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Corporation that rank pari passu in all respects with or junior in
interest to the Securities of such series, or (ii) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Corporation’s capital stock (other than
(a) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of the Corporation in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees,
officers, directors or consultants, in connection with a dividend reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase plan or in connection with the issuance of capital stock of the Corporation (or securities convertible into or exercisable for such capital
stock) as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior to the applicable Extension Period, (b) as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of the Corporation’s capital stock (or any capital stock of a
Subsidiary of the Corporation) for any class or series of the Corporation’s capital stock or of any class or series of the Corporation’s indebtedness for any class or series of the Corporation’s capital stock, (c) the purchase of
fractional interests in shares of the Corporation’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged, (d) any declaration of a dividend in connection with
any Rights Plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any Rights Plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto, or (e) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the
dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to such stock). Prior to the termination of any such
Extension Period, the Corporation may further defer the payment of interest, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and provided, further that no Extension Period shall exceed the period or periods specified in such
Securities, extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the principal of such Securities or end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date. Upon the termination of any such Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and any
Additional Interest then due on any Interest Payment Date, the Corporation may elect to begin a new Extension Period, subject to the above conditions. No interest or Additional Interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except at
the end thereof, but each installment of interest that would otherwise have been due and payable during such Extension Period shall bear Additional Interest as and to the extent as may be specified as contemplated by Section 3.1. The
Corporation shall give the Holders of the Securities of such series and the Trustee notice of its election to begin any such Extension Period at least one Business Day prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date on which interest on
Securities of such series would be payable but for such deferral or, with respect to any Securities of a series issued to an Issuer Trust, so long as any such Securities are held 

  
 -34-









 
by such Issuer Trust, at least one Business Day prior to the earlier of (i) the next succeeding date on which Distributions on the Capital Securities of such Issuer Trust would be payable
but for such deferral, and (ii) the date on which the Property Trustee of such Issuer Trust is required to give notice to holders of such Capital Securities of the record date or the date such Distributions are payable. 

The Trustee shall promptly give notice of the Corporation’s election to begin any such Extension Period to the Holders of the Outstanding Securities
of such series. 
 SECTION 3.13. Right of Set-Off. 
 With respect to the Securities of a series initially issued to an Issuer Trust, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Corporation shall have the right to set off any payment it is otherwise
required to make in respect of any such Security to the extent the Corporation has theretofore made, or is concurrently on the date of such payment making, a payment under the Guarantee Agreement relating to such Security or to a holder of Capital
Securities pursuant to an action undertaken under Section 5.8 of this Indenture. 
 SECTION 3.14. Agreed Tax Treatment. 

Each Security issued hereunder shall provide that the Corporation and, by its acceptance of a Security or a beneficial interest therein, the Holder of,
and any Person that acquires a beneficial interest in, such Security agree that for United States Federal, state and local tax purposes it is intended that such Security constitutes indebtedness. 

SECTION 3.15. Shortening or Extension of Stated Maturity. 
 If specified as contemplated by Section 2.1 or Section 3.1 with respect to the Securities of a particular series, the Corporation shall have the right to (i) shorten the Stated Maturity of the
principal of the Securities of such series at any time to any date, and (ii) extend the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities of such series at any time at its election for one or more periods, provided that, if the Corporation
elects to exercise its right to extend the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities of such series pursuant to Clause (ii) above, at the time such election is made and at the time of extension, such conditions as may be specified in
such Securities shall have been satisfied. 
 SECTION 3.16. CUSIP Numbers. 
 The Corporation 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 and other
similar or related materials as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice or other materials 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 redemption or other materials and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

 (i) have become due and payable, or 

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

amount in the currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal (and premium,
if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest) to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities that have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be; 

(2) the Corporation has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Corporation; and 

(3) the Corporation has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that all conditions precedent

 -36-









 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Corporation to the
Trustee under Section 6.7, the obligations of the Trustee to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.14 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of Clause (1) of this Section, the obligations

 SECTION 4.2. Application of Trust Money.

 Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.3, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1 shall
be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Corporation acting as its own Paying Agent) as the
Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest) for the payment of which such money or obligations have been deposited with or received by the Trustee.

 ARTICLE V 
 REMEDIES 
 SECTION 5.1. Events of Default. 

“Event of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to the Securities of any series, means any one of the following events (whatever the
reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental
body) except as may be specified pursuant to Section 3.1: 
 (1) default in the payment of any interest upon any Security of that series,
including any Additional Interest in respect thereof, when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days (subject to the deferral of any due date in the case of an Extension Period); or 

(2) default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security of that series at its Maturity; or 

(3) failure on the part of the Corporation duly to observe or perform any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Corporation in the
Securities of that series or in this Indenture for a period of 90 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the Corporation to remedy the same, shall have been given to the Corporation by the Trustee by registered or
certified mail or to the Corporation and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; or 
 (4) the entry of a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction in the premises adjudging the Corporation a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization of the
Corporation under the Bankruptcy Code or any other similar applicable Federal or State law, which decree or order shall have continued undischarged and unstayed for a period of 60 days; or the entry of


  
 -37-









 
a decree or order of a court having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a receiver or liquidator or trustee or assignee in bankruptcy or insolvency of the Corporation or of its
property, or for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, which decree or order shall have continued undischarged and unstayed for a period of 60 days; or 
 (5) the commencement by the Corporation of voluntary proceedings to be adjudicated a bankrupt, or consent by the Corporation to the filing of a bankruptcy proceeding against it, or the filing by the
Corporation of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code or any other similar Federal or State law, or consent by the Corporation to the filing of any such petition, or the consent by the Corporation to the
appointment of a receiver or liquidator or trustee or assignee in bankruptcy or insolvency of it or of its property, or the making by the Corporation of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by the Corporation in writing of
its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; or 
 (6) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that
series. 
 SECTION 5.2. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. 
 If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(4) or 5.1(5)) with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then and in
every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if the Securities of that series are Discount Securities, such portion
of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of all the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Corporation (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), provided that, in
the case of the Securities of a series issued to an Issuer Trust, if, upon an Event of Default, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series fail to declare the principal of all the
Outstanding Securities of such series to be immediately due and payable, the holders of at least 25% in aggregate Liquidation Amount (as defined in the related Trust Agreement) of the related series of Capital Securities issued by such Issuer Trust
then outstanding shall have the right to make such declaration by a notice in writing to the Corporation and the Trustee; and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified portion thereof) of and the accrued interest (including any
Additional Interest) on all the Securities of such series shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(4) or 5.1(5) with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs, the
principal amount of all the Securities of such series (or, if the Securities of such series are Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified by the terms of that series) shall automatically, and
without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, become immediately due and payable. Payment of principal and interest (including any Additional Interest) on such Securities shall remain subordinated to the extent
provided in Article XIII notwithstanding that such amount shall become immediately due and payable as herein provided. 
 At any time after such
a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Corporation and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 
 (1) the Corporation has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay: 
 (A) all
overdue installments of interest on all Securities of such series, 

  
 -38-









 (B) any accrued Additional Interest on all Securities of such series, 

(C) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of such series that have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and
interest and Additional Interest thereon at the rate borne by the Securities, and 
 (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and 
 (2) all Events of Default with
respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities of that series that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13. 

In the case of Securities of a series initially issued to an Issuer Trust, if the Holders of such Securities fail to annul such declaration and waive
such default, the holders of a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount (as defined in the related Trust Agreement) of the related series of Capital Securities issued by such Issuer Trust then outstanding shall also have the right to rescind and
annul such declaration and its consequences by written notice to the Corporation and the Trustee, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Clauses (1) and (2) above of this Section 5.2. 

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 SECTION 5.3. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 
 The Corporation
covenants that if: 
 (1) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security of
any series when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or 
 (2) default is made in the
payment of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof, the Corporation will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and
payable on such Securities for principal, including any sinking fund payment or analogous obligations (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest), and, in addition thereto, all amounts owing the Trustee under
Section 6.7. 
 If the Corporation fails 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, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Corporation or any other obligor upon such
Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Corporation or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated. 

  
 -39-









 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in
its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for
the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
 Section 5.4. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 In case of any receivership, insolvency,
liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Corporation or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Corporation or of such other obligor or their
creditors, (a) the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities of any series 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 Corporation for the payment of overdue principal (and premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest)) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest) owing and unpaid
in respect to the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable and to take any and all actions as are authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have the claims of the Holders and any predecessor
to the Trustee under Section 6.7 allowed in any such judicial proceedings; and 
 (ii) in particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to
collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same in accordance with Section 5.6; and 
 (b) 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 for distribution in accordance with Section 5.6, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it and any predecessor Trustee under
Section 6.7. 
 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;
provided, however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors’ or other similar committee.

 Section 5.5. Trustee May Enforce Claim 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, subject to Article XIII
and after provision for the payment of all the amounts owing the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under Section 6.7, 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 5.6. Application of Money Collected. 
 Any money or property collected or to be applied by the Trustee with respect to a series of Securities 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 premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest), upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only
partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee
under Section 6.7; 
 SECOND: Subject to Article XIII, to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon Securities of such series for
principal (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest) 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 series of Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest), respectively; and 

THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Person or Persons entitled thereto. 
 Section 5.7. Limitation on Suits. 
 Subject to Section 5.8, no Holder of any Securities
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, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator (or other similar official) or for any other
remedy hereunder, unless: 
 (1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to
the Securities of that series; 
 (2) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate 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; 
 (3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 

  
 -41-









 (4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to
institute any such proceeding; and 
 (5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day
period by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by
availing itself of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Securities, 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. 
 Section 5.8.
Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest; Direct Action by Holders of Capital Securities. 
 Notwithstanding
any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security of any series shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 3.8 and 3.12) interest
(including any Additional Interest) on such Security on the respective Stated Maturities 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 right
shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. In the case of Securities of a series issued to an Issuer Trust, any registered holder of the series of Capital Securities issued by such Issuer Trust shall have the right, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(1) or 5.1(2), to institute a suit directly against the Corporation for enforcement of payment to such holder of principal of (premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 3.8 and 3.12)
interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities having a principal amount equal to the aggregate Liquidation Amount (as defined in the related Trust Agreement) of such Capital Securities held by such holder. 

Section 5.9. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 
 If the Trustee, any Holder or any holder of Capital Securities issued by any Issuer Trust 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, such Holder or such holder of Capital Securities, then and in every such case the Corporation, the Trustee, such Holders and such holder of Capital Securities
shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee, such Holder and such holder of Capital Securities shall
continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

Except as otherwise provided in the last paragraph of Section 3.7, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or 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 prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 

  
 -42-









 Section 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 
 No delay or omission of the Trustee, any Holder of any Security with respect to the Securities of the related Series or any holder of any Capital Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any
Event of Default with respect to the Securities of the related series 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 and the right and remedy given to the holders of Capital Securities by Section 5.8 may be exercised from time
to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee, the Holders or the holders of Capital Securities, as the case may be. 

Section 5.12. Control by Holders. 
 The
Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that: 
 (1) such direction
shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, 
 (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee
that is not inconsistent with such direction, and 
 (3) subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the Trustee shall have the right to
decline to follow such direction if a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee shall, in good faith, determine that the proceeding so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not joining in any such direction or would involve the
Trustee in personal liability. 
 Section 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series affected thereby and, in the case of any Securities of a series initially issued to an
Issuer Trust, the holders of a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount (as defined in the related Trust Agreement) of the Capital Securities issued by such Issuer Trust may waive any past default hereunder and its consequences with respect to such
series except a default: 
 (1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on any
Security of such series (unless such default has been cured and the Corporation has paid to or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest (including any Additional Interest) and all principal of (and
premium, if any, on) all Securities of that series due otherwise than by acceleration), or 

  
 -43-









 (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under Article IX cannot be modified or amended without
the consent of each Holder of any Outstanding Security of such series affected. 
 Any such waiver shall be deemed to be on behalf of the
Holders of all the Securities of such series or, in the case of a waiver by holders of Capital Securities issued by such Issuer Trust, by all holders of Capital Securities issued by such Issuer Trust. 

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

Section 5.14. Undertaking for Costs. 
 All
parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or
in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit
instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate 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 premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security. 

Section 5.15. Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws. 
 The Corporation covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury,
stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Corporation (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or
advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

 ARTICLE VI 
 The Trustee 
 Section 6.1. Certain Duties and Responsibilities. 

(a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, 

  
 -44-









 (1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (2) in the absence of bad faith
on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but
in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the
requirements of this Indenture. 
 (b) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of 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 under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs. 

(c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to
act, or its own willful misconduct except that 
 (1) this Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of Subsection (a) of this
Section; 
 (2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved
that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 
 (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken
or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of Holders pursuant to Section 5.12 relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust
or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of a series. 
 (d) No provision of this Indenture
shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there shall be reasonable grounds for
believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
 (e) Whether or
not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section. 

Section 6.2. Notice of Defaults. 
 Within
90 days after actual knowledge by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of the occurrence of any default hereunder with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Securities of such series, as their
names and addresses appear in the Securities Register, notice of such default, unless such default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or
interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in 

  
 -45-









 
withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines
that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders of Securities of such series; and provided, further, that, in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 5.1(3), no such notice to Holders of Securities
of such series shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event that is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with
respect to Securities of such series. 
 Section 6.3. Certain Rights of Trustee. 
 Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1: 
 (a) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected
in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, Security or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 
 (b) any request or direction of the Corporation mentioned herein shall be
sufficiently evidenced by a Corporation Request or Corporation Order and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution; 
 (c) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee
(unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate; 
 (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or
omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon; 
 (e) 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 pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities
that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; 
 (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, indenture, Security or other paper or document, but the Trustee in its discretion may make such
inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Corporation, personally or by
agent or attorney; and 
 (g) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or
by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder.

 Section 6.4. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. 

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the
Corporation, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. Neither the Trustee
nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the Corporation of the Securities or the proceeds thereof. 

Section 6.5. May Hold Securities. 

The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Securities Registrar or any other agent of the Corporation, in its individual or any other
capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 6.8 and 6.13, may otherwise deal with the Corporation with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Securities
Registrar or such other agent. 
 Section 6.6. Money Held in Trust. 
 Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it
hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Corporation. 
 Section 6.7. Compensation and Reimbursement. 

The Corporation agrees 
 (1) to pay to the
Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder in such amounts as the Corporation and the Trustee shall agree from time to time (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard
to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 
 (2) to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement
or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and 
 (3) to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any
loss, liability or expense (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel) incurred without negligence or bad faith, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this
trust or the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. This indemnification shall
survive the termination of this Indenture. 
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in
Section 5.1(4) or 5.1(5) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 or any successor statute.

 Section 6.8. Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. 

(a) The Trustee for the Securities of any series issued hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.
Nothing herein shall prevent the Trustee from filing with the Commission the application referred to in the second to last paragraph of said Section 310(b). 
 (b) The Trust Agreement and the Guarantee Agreement with respect to each Issuer Trust shall be deemed to be specifically described in this Indenture for the purposes of clause (i) of the first
proviso contained in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. 
 Section 6.9. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. 

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be: 
 (a) a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trust powers and subject to supervision or examination by Federal, State, Territorial or District of Columbia authority, or 
 (b) a corporation
or other Person organized and doing business under the laws of a foreign government that is permitted to act as Trustee pursuant to a rule, regulation or order of the Commission, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, and
subject to supervision or examination by authority of such foreign government or a political subdivision thereof substantially equivalent to supervision or examination applicable to United States institutional trustees, in either case having a
combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid
supervising or examining authority, then, for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published.
If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. Neither the Corporation nor any Person
directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Corporation shall serve as Trustee for the Securities of any series issued hereunder. 
 Section 6.10. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 
 (a) No resignation or
removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 6.11. 

(b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Corporation. If an
instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of
a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 

  
 -48-









 (c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Corporation. 
 (d) If at any time: 
 (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 6.8 after written
request therefor by the Corporation or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 
 (2) the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.9 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Corporation or by any such Holder, or 
 (3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or
control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then, in any such case, (i) the Corporation, acting pursuant to the authority of a Board Resolution, may remove the Trustee
with respect to the Securities of all series issued hereunder, or (ii) subject to Section 5.14, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of such Holder and all others similarly
situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of all series issued hereunder and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 

(e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause with
respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Corporation, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or
incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series
delivered to the Corporation and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and supersede the
successor Trustee appointed by the Corporation. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Corporation or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any
Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, subject to Section 5.14, on behalf of such Holder and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 (f) The Corporation shall give notice of each resignation
and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to
the Holders of Securities of such series as their names and addresses appear in the Securities Register. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust
Office.

 Section 6.11. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

(a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Corporation and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further
act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Corporation or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute
and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee
hereunder. 
 (b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all)
series, the Corporation, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and
which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of
that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that
all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or
change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall
constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution
and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested
with all the rights, powers, trusts, and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Corporation or any successor Trustee,
such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor
Trustee relates. 
 (c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Corporation shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and
certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be. 
 (d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. 

Section 6.12. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 
 Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the


  
 -50-









 
Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such
corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not
delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated, and in case any Securities shall not have been
authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor Trustee or in the name of such successor Trustee, and in all cases the certificate of authentication shall have the full force which
it is provided anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture that the certificate of the Trustee shall have. 
 Section 6.13.
Preferential Collection of Claims Against Corporation. 
 If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Corporation (or any other
obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Corporation (or any such other obligor). 
 Section 6.14. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 
 The Trustee may appoint an
Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities, which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original issue and upon exchange, registration of
transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.6, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee
hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on
behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Corporation and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, or of any State
or Territory thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority.
If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section the combined capital and surplus of such
Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 
 Any corporation into
which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent shall be the successor Authenticating Agent hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution
or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 

  
 -51-









 An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the
Corporation. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Corporation. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or
in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent, which shall be acceptable to the Corporation and shall give notice
of such appointment in the manner provided in 
 Section 1.6 to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such
Authenticating Agent will serve. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an
Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provision of this Section. 
 The Trustee
agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section, and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 6.7.

 If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed
thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form: 

This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within mentioned Indenture.

Covenants 

Section 10.1. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. 
 The Corporation covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional

 -58-









 Section 10.2. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

The Corporation will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented
or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Corporation in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be
served. The Corporation initially appoints the Trustee, acting through its Corporate Trust Office, as its agent for said purposes. The Corporation will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any change in the location of any such office or
agency. If at any time the Corporation shall fail to maintain such office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Trustee, and the Corporation hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
 The Corporation may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for any or all of such purposes, and may from time to time
rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Corporation of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such
purposes. The Corporation will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation and any change in the location of any such office or agency. 
 Section 10.3. Money for Security Payments to be Held in Trust. 
 If the Corporation shall at
any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any, an) or interest on any of the Securities of such series, segregate and hold in trust for the
benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and will promptly notify the
Trustee of its failure so to act. 
 Whenever the Corporation shall have one or more Paying Agents, it will, prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City
time, on each due date of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest (including any
Additional Interest) so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal (and premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest), and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the
Corporation will promptly notify the Trustee of its failure so to act. 
 The Corporation will cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to
execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will: 
 (1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities of a series in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided; 

  
 -59-









 (2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Corporation (or any other obligor upon such Securities) in
the making of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) in respect of any Security of any Series; 
 (3) at any time during the continuance of any default with respect to a series of Securities, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying
Agent with respect to such series; and 
 (4) comply with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent.

 The Corporation may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay,
or by Corporation Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Corporation or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the
Corporation or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 
 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Corporation in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest)
on any Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall (unless otherwise required by mandatory provision of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property
law) be paid on Corporation Request to the Corporation, or (if then held by the Corporation) shall (unless otherwise required by mandatory provision of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property law) be discharged from such trust; and the
Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Corporation for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the
Corporation as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Corporation cause to be published once, in a newspaper
published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which
shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Corporation. 
 Section 10.4. Statement as to Compliance. 
 The Corporation shall deliver to the Trustee,
within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Corporation ending after the date hereof, an Officers’ Certificate covering the preceding calendar year, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof the
Corporation is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of or compliance with any of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Indenture, and if the Corporation shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the
nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge. For the purpose of this Section 10.4, compliance shall be determined without regard to any grace period or requirement of notice provided pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.


  
 -60-









 Section 10.5. Waiver of Certain Covenants. 
 Subject to the rights of holders of Capital Securities specified in Section 9.2, if any, the Corporation may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition provided pursuant
to Section 3.1, 9.1(3) or 9.1(4) with respect to the Securities of any series, if before or after the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall,
by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived,
and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Corporation in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 
 Section 10.6. Additional Sums. 
 In the case of the Securities of a series initially issued
to an Issuer Trust, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.1 or Section 3.1, if (i) an Issuer Trust is the Holder of all of the Outstanding
Securities of such series, and (ii) a Tax Event has occurred and is continuing in respect of such Issuer Trust, the Corporation shall pay to such Issuer Trust (and its permitted successors or assigns under the related Trust Agreement) for so
long as such Issuer Trust (or its permitted successor or assignee) is the registered holder of the Outstanding Securities of such series, such additional sums as may be necessary in order that the amount of Distributions (including any Additional
Amounts (as defined in such Trust Agreement)) then due and payable by such Issuer Trust on the related Capital Securities and Common Securities that at any time remain outstanding in accordance with the terms thereof shall not be reduced as a result
of any Additional Taxes arising from such Tax Event; provided, however, that Additional Sums shall not include any withholding taxes arising after the occurrence of a Tax Event and which have been withheld from payments to Holders of Trust
Securities and for which Holders are liable (the “Additional Sums”). Whenever in this Indenture or the Securities there is a reference in any context to the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities, such mention shall be
deemed to include mention of the payments of the Additional Sums provided for in this paragraph to the extent that, in such context, Additional Sums are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph and
express mention of the payment of Additional Sums (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Sums in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made; provided, however, that the deferral of
the payment of interest pursuant to Section 3.12 or the Securities shall not defer the payment of any Additional Sums that may be due and payable. 
 Section 10.7. Additional Covenants. 
 The Corporation covenants and agrees with each Holder
of Securities of each series that it shall not (x) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Corporation that rank pari passu in all respects with or junior in
interest to the Securities of such series, or (y) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of the Corporation’s capital stock (other than
(a) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of the Corporation in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees,
officers, directors or consultants, in connection with 

  
 -61-









 
a dividend reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase plan or in connection with the issuance of capital stock of the Corporation (or securities convertible into or exercisable for such capital
stock) as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior to the applicable Extension Period, (b) as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of the Corporation’s capital stock (or any capital stock of a
Subsidiary of the Corporation) for any class or series of the Corporation’s capital stock or of any class or series of the Corporation’s indebtedness for any class or series of the Corporation’s capital stock, (c) the purchase of
fractional interests in shares of the Corporation’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged, (d) any declaration of a dividend in connection with
any Rights Plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any Rights Plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto, or (e) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the
dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to such stock) if at such time (i) there shall have
occurred any event (A) of which the Corporation has actual knowledge that with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series, and (B) which the
Corporation shall not have taken reasonable steps to cure, (ii) if the Securities of such series are held by an Issuer Trust, the Corporation shall be in default with respect to its payment of any obligations under the Guarantee Agreement
relating to the Capital Securities issued by such Issuer Trust, or (iii) the Corporation shall have given notice of its election to begin an Extension Period with respect to the Securities of such series as provided herein and shall not have
rescinded such notice, or such Extension Period, or any extension thereof, shall be continuing. 
 The Corporation also covenants with each
Holder of Securities of a series issued to an Issuer Trust (i) to hold, directly or indirectly, 100% of the Common Securities of such Issuer Trust, provided that any permitted successor of the Corporation hereunder may succeed to the
Corporation’s ownership of such Common Securities, (ii) as holder of such Common Securities, not to voluntarily terminate, wind-up or liquidate such Issuer Trust, other than (a) in connection with a distribution of the Securities of
such series to the holders of the related Capital Securities in liquidation of such Issuer Trust, or (b) in connection with certain mergers, consolidations or amalgamations permitted by the related Trust Agreement, and (iii) to use its
reasonable efforts, consistent with the terms and provisions of such Trust Agreement, to cause such Issuer Trust to continue not to be taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. 

Section 10.8. Original Issue Discount. 

For each year during which any Securities that were issued with original issue discount are Outstanding, the Corporation shall furnish to each Paying

 ARTICLE XI 
 Redemption of Securities 
 Section 11.1 Applicability of This Article. 

Redemption of Securities of any series (whether by operation of a sinking fund or otherwise) as permitted or required by any form of Security issued
pursuant to this Indenture shall be made in accordance with such form of Security and this Article; provided, however, that if any provision of any such form of Security shall conflict with any provision of this Article, the provision of such form
of Security shall govern. Except as otherwise set forth in the form of Security for such series, each Security of a series shall be subject to partial redemption only in the amount of $1,000 or any integral multiples thereof. 

Section 11.2. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. 
 The election of the Corporation to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by or pursuant to a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Corporation, the Corporation shall, at
least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee and, in the case of Securities of a series held by an Issuer Trust, the Property Trustee under the related Trust Agreement,
of such date and of the principal amount of Securities of the applicable series to be redeemed and provide the additional information required to be included in the notice or notices contemplated by Section 11.4; provided that in the case of
any series of Securities initially issued to an Issuer Trust, for so long as such Securities are held by such Issuer Trust, such notice shall be given not less than 45 nor more than 75 days prior to such Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice
shall be satisfactory to the Property Trustee under the related Trust Agreement). In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities, the Corporation
shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel evidencing compliance with such restriction. 

Section 11.3. Selection of Securities to be Redeemed. 
 If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the
Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount of any Security of
such series, provided that the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security. 

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Corporation in writing of the Securities selected for partial redemption and the principal amount thereof to be
redeemed. For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the
principal amount of such Security that has been or is to be redeemed. 

  
 -63-









 Section 11.4. Notice of Redemption. 
 Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not later than the thirtieth day, and not earlier than the sixtieth day, prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of
Securities to be redeemed, at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Securities Register, provided that in the case of any series of Securities initially issued to an Issuer Trust, for so long as such Securities are held by such Issuer
Trust, such notice shall be given not less than 45 nor more than 75 days prior to such Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Property Trustee under the related Trust Agreement). 

With respect to Securities of each series to be redeemed, each notice of redemption shall state: 

(a) the Redemption Date; 
 (b) the Redemption
Price or, if the Redemption Price cannot be calculated prior to the time the notice is required to be sent, the estimate of the Redemption Price together with a statement that it is an estimate and that the actual Redemption Price will be calculated
on the third Business Day prior to the Redemption Date (and if an estimate is provided, a further notice shall be sent of the actual Redemption Price on the date that such Redemption Price is calculated); 

(c) if less than all Outstanding Securities of such particular series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the
respective principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed; 
 (d) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become
due and payable upon each such Security or portion thereof, and that interest (including any Additional Interest) thereon, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after said date; 
 (e) the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price; 
 (f) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case; 
 (g) such other provisions as
may be required in respect of the terms of a particular series of Securities. 
 Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the
election of the Corporation shall be given by the Corporation or, at the Corporation’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Corporation and shall be irrevocable. The notice if mailed in the manner provided above shall
be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, a failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Security designated for redemption as a whole or in
part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Security. 

  
 -64-









 Section 11.5. Deposit of Redemption Price. 
 Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Redemption Date specified in the notice of redemption given as provided in Section 11.4, the Corporation will deposit with the Trustee or with one or
more Paying Agents (or if the Corporation is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Corporation will segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.3) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and any accrued interest
(including any Additional Interest) on, all the Securities (or portions thereof) that are to be redeemed on that date. 
 Section 11.6.
Payment of Securities Called for Redemption. 
 If any notice of redemption has been given as provided in Section 11.4, the Securities or
portion of Securities with respect to which such notice has been given shall become due and payable on the date and at the place or places stated in such notice at the applicable Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (including any
Additional Interest) to the Redemption Date. On presentation and surrender of such Securities at a Place of Payment in said notice specified, the said Securities or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and redeemed by the Corporation at the
applicable Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (including any Additional Interest) to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, installments of interest (including any
Additional Interest) whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant record dates
according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.8. 
 Upon presentation of any Security redeemed in part only, the Corporation
shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Corporation, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the
unredeemed portion of the Security so presented and having the same Original Issue Date, Stated Maturity and terms. 
 If any Security called
for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal of and premium, if any, on such Security shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 

Section 11.7. Right of Redemption of Securities Initially Issued to an Issuer Trust. 
 In the case of the Securities of a series initially issued to an Issuer Trust, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, the Corporation, at its option, may redeem such Securities
(i) on or after the date specified in such Security, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, or (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Tax Event, an Investment Company Event or a Capital Treatment Event, at
any time within 90 days following the occurrence and during the continuation of such Tax Event, Investment Company Event or Capital Treatment Event, in whole (but not in part), in each case at a Redemption Price specified in such Security, together
with accrued interest (including any Additional Interest) to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 
 If less than all the Securities of any such
series are to be redeemed, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities remaining Outstanding after giving effect to such redemption shall be sufficient to satisfy any provisions of the Trust Agreement related to the Issuer Trust to which such
Securities were issued, including any requirement in such Trust Agreement as to the minimum Liquidation Amount (as defined in such Trust Agreement) of Capital Securities that may be held by a holder of Capital Securities thereunder.

 ARTICLE XII 
 Sinking Funds 
 Section 12.1. Applicability of Article. 

The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of any series except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 3.1 for such Securities. 
 The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of any
Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment”, and any sinking fund payment in excess of such minimum amount that is permitted to be made by the terms of such Securities of any series is herein
referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of any Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.2. Each sinking fund
payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of such Securities. 
 Section 12.2.
Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 
 In lieu of making all or any part of a mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to
any Securities of a series in cash, the Corporation may at its option, at any time no more than 16 months and no less than 45 days prior to the date on which such sinking fund payment is due, deliver to the Trustee Securities of such series
(together with the unmatured coupons, if any, appertaining thereto) theretofore purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation, except Securities of such series that have been redeemed through the application of mandatory or optional sinking
fund payments pursuant to the terms of the Securities of such series, accompanied by a Corporation Order instructing the Trustee to credit such obligations and stating that the Securities of such series were originally issued by the Corporation by
way of bona fide sale or other negotiation for value; provided that the Securities to be so credited have not been previously so credited. The Securities to be so credited shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the
redemption price for such Securities, as specified in the Securities so to be redeemed, for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 

Section 12.3. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 
 Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Corporation will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next
ensuing sinking fund payment for such Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash in the currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as
provided pursuant to Section 3.1) and the portion thereof, if any, that is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities pursuant to Section 12.2 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Such
Officers’ Certificate shall be irrevocable and upon its 

  
 -66-









 
delivery the Corporation shall be obligated to make the cash payment or payments therein referred to, if any, on or before the succeeding sinking fund payment date. In the case of the failure of
the Corporation to deliver such Officers’ Certificate (or, as required by this Indenture, the Securities and coupons, if any, specified in such Officers’ Certificate) by the due date therefor, the sinking fund payment due on the succeeding
sinking fund payment date for such series shall be paid entirely in cash and shall be sufficient to redeem the principal amount of the Securities of such series subject to a mandatory sinking fund payment without the right to deliver or credit
securities as provided in Section 12.2 and without the right to make the optional sinking fund payment with respect to such series at such time. 
 Any sinking fund payment or payments (mandatory or optional) made in cash plus any unused balance of any preceding sinking fund payments made with respect to the Securities of any particular series shall
be applied by the Trustee (or by the Corporation if the Corporation is acting as its own Paying Agent) on the sinking fund payment date on which such payment is made (or, if such payment is made before a sinking fund payment date, on the sinking
fund payment date immediately following the date of such payment) to the redemption of Securities of such series at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities with respect to the sinking fund. Any sinking fund moneys not so applied or
allocated by the Trustee (or, if the Corporation is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregated and held in trust by the Corporation as provided in Section 10.3) for such series and together with such payment (or such amount so segregated) shall
be applied in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.3. Any and all sinking fund moneys with respect to the Securities of any particular series held by the Trustee (or if the Corporation is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregated
and held in trust as provided in Section 10.3) on the last sinking fund payment date with respect to Securities of such series and not held for the payment or redemption of particular Securities of such series shall be applied by the Trustee
(or by the Corporation if the Corporation is acting as its own Paying Agent), together with other moneys, if necessary, to be deposited (or segregated) sufficient for the purpose, to the payment of the principal of the Securities of such series at
Maturity. The Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.3 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the
Corporation in the manner provided in Section 11.4. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Section 11.6. On or before each sinking fund payment date,
the Corporation shall pay to the Trustee (or, if the Corporation is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Corporation shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.3) in cash a sum in the currency in which Securities of such series
are payable (except as provided pursuant to Section 3.1) equal to the principal (and premium, if any) and any interest (including any Additional Interest) accrued to the Redemption Date for Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed on such
sinking fund payment date pursuant to this Section 12.3. 
 Neither the Trustee nor the Corporation shall redeem any Securities of a series
with sinking fund moneys or mail any notice of redemption of Securities of such series by operation of the sinking fund for such series during the continuance of a default in payment of interest, if any, on any Securities of such series or of any
Event of Default (other than an Event of Default occurring as a consequence of this paragraph) with respect to the Securities of such series, except that if the notice of redemption shall have been provided in accordance with the provisions hereof,
the Trustee (or the Corporation, if the Corporation is then acting as its own Paying Agent) shall redeem such Securities if cash sufficient for that purpose shall be deposited with the Trustee (or segregated by the Corporation) for that purpose in
accordance with the terms of this Article XII. Except as aforesaid, any moneys in the sinking fund for 

  
 -67-









 
such series at the time when any such default or Event of Default shall occur and any moneys thereafter paid into such sinking fund shall, during the continuance of such default or Event of
Default, be held as security for the payment of the Securities and coupons, if any, of such series; provided, however, that in case such default or Event of Default shall have been cured or waived herein, such moneys shall thereafter be applied on
the next sinking fund payment date for the Securities of such series on which such moneys may be applied pursuant to the provisions of this Section 12.3. 
 ARTICLE XIII 
 Subordination of Securities 

Section 13.1. Securities Subordinate to Senior Indebtedness. 
 The Corporation covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Security, by its acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Article,
the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest) on each and all of the Securities of each and every series are hereby expressly made subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior
payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness. 
 Section 13.2. No Payment When Senior Indebtedness in Default; Payment Over of Proceeds Upon
Dissolution, Etc. 
 If the Corporation shall default in the payment of any principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Senior
Indebtedness when the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by declaration of acceleration or otherwise, then, upon written notice of such default to the Corporation by the holders of Senior
Indebtedness or any trustee therefor, unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no direct or indirect payment (in cash, property, securities, by set-off or otherwise) shall be made or agreed to be
made on account of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on any of the Securities, or in respect of any redemption, repayment, retirement, purchase or other acquisition of any of the Securities.

 In the event of (a) any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition or other similar
proceedings relating to the Corporation, its creditors or its property, (b) any proceeding for the liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Corporation, voluntary or involuntary, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy
proceedings, (c) any assignment by the Corporation for the benefit of creditors or (d) any other marshalling of the assets of the Corporation (each such event, if any, herein sometimes referred to as a “Proceeding”), all Senior
Indebtedness (including any interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any such proceedings) shall first be paid in full before any payment or distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any Holder of any
of the Securities on account thereof. Any payment or distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than securities of the Corporation or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the payment
of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in these subordination provisions with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities, to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness at the time outstanding and to any securities issued
in respect thereof under any such plan of reorganization or readjustment), which would otherwise 

  
 -68-









 
(but for these subordination provisions) be payable or deliverable in respect of the Securities of any series shall be paid or delivered directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness in
accordance with the priorities then existing among such holders until all Senior Indebtedness (including any interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any Proceeding) shall have been paid in full. 

In the event of any Proceeding, after payment in full of all sums owing with respect to Senior Indebtedness, the Holders of the Securities, together with
the holders of any obligations of the Corporation ranking on a parity with the Securities, shall be entitled to be paid from the remaining assets of the Corporation the amounts at the time due and owing on account of unpaid principal of (and
premium, if any) and interest on the Securities and such other obligations before any payment or other distribution, whether in cash, property or otherwise, shall be made on account of any capital stock or any obligations of the Corporation ranking
junior to the Securities and such other obligations. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of any character or any security, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than securities of the Corporation or any
other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the payment of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in these subordination provisions with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities, to the
payment of all Senior Indebtedness at the time outstanding and to any securities issued in respect thereof under any such plan of reorganization or readjustment), shall be received by the Trustee or any Holder in contravention of any of the terms
hereof and before all Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, such payment or distribution or security shall be received in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered and transferred to, the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness at the time outstanding in accordance with the priorities then existing among such holders for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Indebtedness in full.
In the event of the failure of the Trustee or any Holder to endorse or assign any such payment, distribution or security, each holder of Senior Indebtedness is hereby irrevocably authorized to endorse or assign the same. 

The Trustee and the Holders shall take such action (including, without limitation, the delivery of this Indenture to an agent for the holders of Senior
Indebtedness or consent to the filing of a financing statement with respect hereto) as may, in the opinion of counsel designated by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Indebtedness at the time outstanding, be necessary or
appropriate to assure the effectiveness of the subordination effected by these provisions. 
 The provisions of this Section 13.2 shall not
impair any rights, interests, remedies or powers of any secured creditor of the Corporation in respect of any security interest the creation of which is not prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture. 

The securing of any obligations of the Corporation, otherwise ranking on a parity with the Securities or ranking junior to the Securities, shall not be
deemed to prevent such obligations from constituting, respectively, obligations ranking on a parity with the Securities or ranking junior to the Securities. 
 Section 13.3. Payment Permitted If No Default. 
 Nothing contained in this Article or
elsewhere in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall prevent (a) the Corporation, at any time, except during the pendency of the conditions described in the first paragraph of Section 13.2 or of any Proceeding referred to in
Section 13.2, from making payments 

  
 -69-









 
at any time of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities, or (b) the application by the Trustee of any moneys deposited with it
hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities or the retention of such payment by the Holders, if, at the time of such application by the
Trustee, it did not have knowledge that such payment would have been prohibited by the provisions of this Article. 
 Section 13.4.
Subrogation to Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness. 
 Subject to the payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on all Senior
Indebtedness, or the provision for such payment in cash or cash equivalents or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the extent of the payments or distributions
made to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions of this Article (equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Corporation that by its express terms is subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of the
Corporation to substantially the same extent as the Securities are subordinated to the Senior Indebtedness and is entitled to like rights of subrogation by reason of any payments or distributions made to holders of such Senior Indebtedness) to the
rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments and distributions of cash, property and securities applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional
Interest) on the Securities shall be paid in full. For purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee
would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article, and no payments over pursuant to the provisions of this Article to the holders of Senior Indebtedness by Holders of the Securities or the Trustee, shall, as among the Corporation, its
creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Corporation to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness. 

Section 13.5. Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. 
 The provisions of this Article are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities on the one hand and the holders of Senior Indebtedness on the
other hand. Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall (a) impair, as between the Corporation and the Holders of the Securities, the obligations of the Corporation, which are
absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their
terms; or (b) affect the relative rights against the Corporation of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Corporation other than their rights in relation to the holders of Senior Indebtedness; or (c) prevent the Trustee or the
Holder of any Security (or to the extent expressly provided herein, the holder of any Capital Security) from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, including filing and voting claims in any
Proceeding, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive cash, property and securities otherwise payable or deliverable to the Trustee or such Holder. 

  
 -70-









 Section 13.6. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. 

Each Holder of a Security by his or her acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on his or her behalf to take such action as may be
necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination provided in this Article and appoints the Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 
 Section 13.7. No Waiver of Subordination Provisions. 
 No right of any present or future
holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Corporation or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any
such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Corporation with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. 

Without in any way limiting the generality of the immediately preceding paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from to time,
without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities of any series, without incurring responsibility to such Holders of the Securities and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article or the
obligations hereunder of such Holders of the Securities to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior
Indebtedness, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Indebtedness is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any
property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Indebtedness; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of Senior Indebtedness; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Corporation
and any other Person. 
 Section 13.8. Notice to Trustee. 
 The Corporation shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any fact known to the Corporation that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of
the Securities, unless and until the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Corporation or a holder of Senior Indebtedness or from any trustee, agent or representative therefor; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not
have received the notice provided for in this Section at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any monies may become payable for any purpose (including, the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) or
interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such monies and to apply the same to the purpose for which
they were received and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary that may be received by it within two Business Days prior to such date. 

  
 -71-









 Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it
of a written notice by a Person representing himself or herself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee or attorney-in-fact therefor) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee or
attorney-in-fact therefor). In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to
this Article, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such
payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such
Person to receive such payment. 
 Section 13.9. Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate of Liquidating Agent. 

Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Corporation referred to in this Article, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1,
and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such Proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee,
custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such
payment or distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Corporation, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this
Article. 
 Section 13.10. Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Indebtedness. 

The Trustee, in its capacity as trustee under this Indenture, shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness and
shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall in good faith mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders of Securities or to the Corporation or to any other Person cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness shall
be entitled by virtue of this Article or otherwise. 
 Section 13.11. Rights of Trustee as Holder of Senior Indebtedness; Preservation of
Trustee’s Rights. 
 The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article with respect to
any Senior Indebtedness that may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. 

Section 13.12. Article Applicable to Paying Agents. 
 If at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Corporation and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article shall in such case
(unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition to or in place of the
Trustee.

 (For transfers pursuant to Section 3.6(b) of the Indenture referred to below) 

[                         
                           ], 
 as Securities Registrar 
 [address] 
 Re: [Title of Securities] of State Street Boston Corporation (the “Securities”) 

Reference is made to the Junior Subordinated Indenture, dated as of December 15, 1996 (the “Indenture”), between State Street Boston
Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation, and The First National Bank of Chicago, as Trustee. Terms used herein and defined in the Indenture or in Regulation S, Rule 144A or Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities
Act”) are used herein as so defined. 
 This certificate relates to
$             aggregate principal amount of Securities, which are evidenced by the following certificate(s) (the “Specified Securities”): 

CUSIP No(s).

CURRENTLY IN BOOK-ENTRY FORM: Yes     No     (check one) 

The person in whose name this certificate is executed below (the “Undersigned”) hereby certifies that either (i) it is the sole beneficial
owner of the Specified Securities or (ii) it is acting on behalf of all the beneficial owners of the Specified Securities and is duly authorized by them to do so. Such beneficial owner or owners are referred to herein collectively as the
“Owner”. If the Specified Securities are represented by a Global Security, they are held through a Depositary (except in the name of the “The Depository Trust Company”) or an Agent Member in the name of the Undersigned, as or on
behalf of the Owner. If the Specified Securities are not represented by a Global Security, they are registered in the name of the Undersigned, as or on behalf of the Owner. 
 The Owner has requested that the Specified Securities be transferred to a person (the “Transferee”) who will take delivery in the form of a Restricted Security. In connection with such transfer,
the Owner hereby certifies that, unless such transfer is being effected pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, it is being effected in accordance with Rule 144A, Rule 904 of Regulation S or Rule 144 under the
Securities Act and

 all applicable securities laws of the states of the United States and other jurisdictions. Accordingly, the
Owner hereby further certifies as: 
 (1) Rule 144A Transfers. If the transfer is being effected in accordance with Rule 144A: 

(A) the Specified Securities are being transferred to a person that the Owner and any person acting on its behalf reasonably believe is a “qualified
institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A, acquiring for its own account or for the account of a qualified institutional buyer; and 
 (B) the Owner and any person acting on its behalf have taken reasonable steps to ensure that the Transferee is aware that the Owner may be relying on Rule 144A in connection with the transfer; and

 (2) Rule 904 Transfers. If the transfer is being effected in accordance with Rule 904: 

(A) the Owner is not a distributor of the Securities, an affiliate of the Corporation or any such distributor or a person acting in behalf of any of the
foregoing; 
 (B) the offer of the Specified Securities was not made to a person in the United States; 

(C) either; 
 (i) at the time the buy order was
originated, the Transferee was outside the United States or the Owner and any person acting on its behalf reasonably believed that the Transferee was outside the United States, or 
 (ii) the transaction is being executed in, on or through the facilities of the Eurobond market, as regulated by the Association of International Bond Dealers, or another designated offshore securities
market and neither the Owner nor any person acting on its behalf knows that the transaction has been prearranged with a buyer in the United States; 
 (D) no directed selling efforts have been made in the United States by or on behalf of the Owner or any affiliate thereof; and 
 (E) the transaction is not part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration requirements of the Securities act.

 (3) Rule 144 Transfers. If the transfer is being effected pursuant to Rule 144: 

(A) the transfer is occurring after a holding period of at least two years (computed in accordance with paragraph (d) of Rule 144) has elapsed since
the date the Specified Securities were acquired from the Corporation or from an affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 144) of the Corporation, whichever is later, and is being effected in accordance with the applicable amount, manner of sale
and notice requirements of paragraphs (e), (f) and (h) of Rule 144; 
 (B) the transfer is occurring after a holding period by the
Owner of at least three years has elapsed since the date the Specified Securities were acquired from the Corporation or from an affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 144) of the Corporation, whichever is later, and the Owner is not, and during
the preceding three months has not been, an affiliate of the Corporation; or 
 (C) the Owner is a qualified institutional buyer within the
meaning of Rule 144a, and is transferring the Securities to an institution that is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities Act in a transaction exempt
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. 
 This certificate and the statements contained herein are made for your benefit and
the benefit of the Corporation and the “Initial Purchaser” (as defined in the Trust Agreement relating to the Issuer Trust to which the Securities were initially issued).
