THE NOTES


 


Section 2.01.     
The Notes.


 


(a)              
Form and Dating. The Notes and the Trustee’s (or the authenticating agent’s) certificate of authentication shall be
substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations
as are required or permitted by this Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, the rules of any
securities exchange agreements to which the Issuer is subject, if any, or usage; provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement
is in form reasonably acceptable to the Issuer. The Issuer shall approve the form of the Notes. Each Note shall be dated the date of its
authentication. The terms and provisions contained in the form of the Notes shall constitute and are hereby expressly made a part of this
Indenture. The Notes shall be issued only in registered form without coupons and only in minimum denominations of $2,000 in principal
amount and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 


(b)              
Global Notes. Notes offered and sold to QIBs in reliance on Rule 144A shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global
Notes substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, with such applicable legends as are provided in Exhibit A attached hereto,
except as otherwise permitted herein (the “Restricted Global Note”), which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers
of the Notes represented thereby with a custodian for DTC, and registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, duly executed by the Issuer
and authenticated by the Trustee (or its authenticating agent in accordance with Section 2.02) as hereinafter provided. The aggregate
principal amount of the Restricted Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made by the Registrar on
Schedule A to the Restricted Global Note and recorded in the Security Register, as hereinafter provided.


 


Notes offered and sold in
reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global Notes substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached
hereto, with such applicable legends as are provided in Exhibit A, except as otherwise permitted herein (the “Regulation S Global
Note”), which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes represented thereby with a custodian for DTC, and
registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee (or its authenticating agent
in accordance with Section 2.02) as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note may from time
to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made by the Registrar on Schedule A to the Regulation S Global Note and recorded in the
Security Register, as hereinafter provided.


 


(c)              
Book-Entry Provisions. This Section 2.01(c) shall apply to the Regulation S Global Notes and the Restricted Global Notes (together,
the “Global Notes”) deposited with or on behalf of DTC.


 


Members of, or
participants and account holders in, DTC (including Euroclear and Clearstream) (“Participants”) shall have no
rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by DTC or by the Trustee or any custodian of DTC or
under such Global Note, and DTC or its nominees may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee
as the sole owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the
Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other
authorization furnished by DTC or impair, as between DTC, on the one hand, and the Participants, on the other, the operation of
customary practices of such persons governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of a beneficial interest in any Global
Note.


 






    10


     


    

 



 


Subject to the provisions
of Section 2.10(b), the registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Participants
and Persons that may hold interests through Participants, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or
the Notes.


 


Except as provided in Section
2.10, owners of a beneficial interest in Global Notes will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Definitive Registered Notes.


 


Section 2.02.     
Execution and Authentication. An authorized member of the Issuer’s Board of Directors or an executive officer of the
Issuer shall sign the Notes on behalf of the Issuer by manual, electronic or facsimile signature.


 


If an authorized member of
the Issuer’s Board of Directors or an executive officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the
Trustee (or its authenticating agent) authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless.


 


A Note shall not be valid
or obligatory for any purpose until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or its authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate
of authentication on the Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.


 


The Issuer shall execute and,
upon receipt of an Issuer Order, the Trustee shall authenticate (whether itself or via the authenticating agent), which such authentication
may be by manual, electronic (including DocuSign or other electronic platform) or facsimile signature (a) Original Notes, on the date
hereof, for original issue up to an aggregate principal amount of $650,000,000 and (b) Additional Notes, from time to time. The Issuer
is permitted to issue Additional Notes as part of a further issue under this Indenture, from time to time; provided that, any Additional
Notes may not have the same CUSIP number and/or ISIN (or be represented by the same Global Note or Global Notes) as the Original Notes
unless the Additional Notes are fungible with the Original Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Issuer will issue Notes in
denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 


The Trustee may appoint an
authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Notes. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any
such authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by
the Trustee includes authentication by any such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, co-Registrar, Transfer
Agent or Paying Agent to deal with the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer.


 


The Trustee shall have the
right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Notes under this Section 2.02 if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that
such action may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal
liability to existing Holders.


 






    11


     


    

 


Section 2.03.     
Registrar, Transfer Agent and Paying Agent. The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency for the registration of the Notes
and of their transfer or exchange (the “Registrar”), an office or agency where Notes may be transferred or exchanged
(the “Transfer Agent”), an office or agency where the Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”
and references to the Paying Agent shall include the Principal Paying Agent) and an office or agency where notices or demands to or upon
the Issuer in respect of the Notes may be served. The Issuer may appoint one or more Transfer Agents, one or more co-Registrars and one
or more additional Paying Agents.


 


The Issuer or any of its Affiliates
may act as Transfer Agent, Registrar, co-Registrar, Paying Agent and agent for service of notices and demands in connection with the Notes;
provided that neither the Issuer nor any of its Affiliates shall act as Paying Agent for the purposes of Article Three and Eight
and Sections 4.08.


 


The Issuer hereby appoints
(i) the Trustee, located at its Corporate Trust Office (the “Principal Paying Agent”) and (ii) the Trustee, located
at its Corporate Trust Office, as Registrar. Each hereby accepts such appointments. The Transfer Agent, Principal Paying Agent and Registrar
and any authenticating agent are collectively referred to in this Indenture as the “Agents.” The roles, duties and
functions of the Agents are of a mechanical nature and each Agent shall only perform those acts and duties as specifically set out in
this Indenture and no other acts, covenants, obligations or duties shall be implied or read into this Indenture against any of the Agents.
For the avoidance of doubt, a Paying Agent’s obligation to disburse any funds shall be subject to prior receipt by it of those funds
to be disbursed.


 


Subject to any applicable
laws and regulations, the Issuer shall cause the Registrar to keep a register (the “Security Register”) at its Corporate
Trust Office in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of ownership,
exchange, and transfer of the Notes. Such registration in the Security Register shall be conclusive evidence of the ownership of Notes.
Included in the books and records for the Notes shall be notations as to whether such Notes have been paid, exchanged or transferred,
canceled, lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed and whether such Notes have been replaced. In the case of the replacement of any of the
Notes, the Registrar shall keep a record of the Note so replaced and the Note issued in replacement thereof. In the case of the cancellation
of any of the Notes, the Registrar shall keep a record of the Note so canceled and the date on which such Note was canceled.


 


The Issuer shall enter into
an appropriate agency agreement with any Paying Agent or co- Registrar not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the
provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent.
If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee may appoint a suitably qualified and reputable party to act as
such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.05.


 


Section 2.04.      Paying
Agent to Hold Money. Not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York, New York time), one Business Day prior to each due date of the
principal, premium, if any, and interest on any Notes, the Issuer shall deposit with the Principal Paying Agent money in immediately
available funds in U.S. dollars, sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and interest so becoming due on the due date for
payment under the Notes. The Issuer shall procure payment confirmation on or prior to the third Business Day preceding payment. The
Principal Paying Agent (and, if applicable, each other Paying Agent) shall remit such payment in a timely manner to the Holders on
the relevant due date for payment, it being acknowledged by each Holder that if the Issuer deposits such money with the Principal
Paying Agent after the time specified in the immediately preceding sentence, the Principal Paying Agent shall remit such money to
the Holders on the relevant due date for payment, unless such remittance is impracticable having regard to applicable banking
procedures and timing constraints, in which case the Principal Paying Agent shall remit such money to the Holders on the next
Business Day, but without liability for any interest resulting from such late payment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Principal
Paying Agent shall only be obliged to remit money to Holders if it has actually received such money from the Issuer in clear funds.
The Principal Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor on the Notes) in
making any payment. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and account for any
funds disbursed, and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any payment default, upon written request to a Paying
Agent, require such Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon doing so,
the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money so paid over to the Trustee. If the Issuer or any Affiliate of the
Issuer acts as Paying Agent, it shall, on or before each due date of any principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes,
segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders a sum of money sufficient to pay such principal, premium,
if any, or interest so becoming due until such sum of money shall be paid to such Holders or otherwise disposed of as provided in
this Indenture, and shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure to act.


 


The Trustee may, if the Issuer
has notified it in writing that the Issuer intends to effect a defeasance or to satisfy and discharge this Indenture in accordance with
the provisions of Article Eight, notify the Paying Agent in writing of this fact and require the Paying Agent (until notified by the Trustee
to the contrary) to act thereafter as Paying Agent of the Trustee and not the Issuer in relation to any amounts deposited with it in accordance
with the provisions of Article Eight.


 






    12


     


    

 


Section 2.05.     
Holder Lists. The Registrar shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available
to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee, in writing
no later than the Record Date for each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list, in
such form and as of such Record Date as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of Holders, including the aggregate
principal amount of Notes held by each Holder.


 


Section 2.06.     
Transfer and Exchange.


 


(a)               Where
Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-Registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal
principal amount of Notes of other denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange in accordance with
the requirements of this Section 2.06. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee
(or the authenticating agent) shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, at the
Registrar’s request; provided that no Note of less than $2,000 may be transferred or exchanged. No service charge shall
be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the Issuer may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any agency fee or similar charge payable in connection with any such registration of
transfer or exchange of Notes (other than any agency fee or similar charge payable in connection with any redemption of the Notes or
upon exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.08 or 9.04) or in accordance with a Change of Control Offer pursuant to Section 4.08,
not involving a transfer.


 


Upon presentation for exchange
or transfer of any Note as permitted by the terms of this Indenture and by any legend appearing on such Note, such Note shall be exchanged
or transferred upon the Security Register and one or more new Notes shall be authenticated and issued in the name of the Holder (in the
case of exchanges only) or the transferee, as the case may be. No exchange or transfer of a Note shall be effective under this Indenture
unless and until such Note has been registered in the name of such Person in the Security Register. Furthermore, the exchange or transfer
of any Note shall not be effective under this Indenture unless the request for such exchange or transfer is made by the Holder or by a
duly authorized attorney-in-fact at the Corporate Trust Office of the Registrar.


 


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


 


All Notes issued upon any
registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer evidencing the same indebtedness, and entitled
to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.


 


Neither the Issuer nor the
Trustee, Registrar or any Paying Agent shall be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange any Note during a period
beginning at the opening of 15 days before the day of the delivery of a notice of redemption of Notes selected for redemption under Section
3.02 and ending at the close of business on the day of such delivery, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected
for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.


 






    13


     


    

 


(b)              
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, so long as a Global Note remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf
of DTC, transfers of a Global Note, in whole or in part, or of any beneficial interest therein, shall only be made in accordance with
Section 2.01(c), Section 2.06(a) and this Section 2.06(b); provided that a beneficial interest in a Global Note may be transferred
to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions
set forth in the restricted Note legend on the Note, if any.


 


(i)                
Except for transfers or exchanges made in accordance with either of clauses (ii) or (iii) of this Section 2.06(b), transfers of
a Global Note shall be limited to transfers of such Global Note in whole, but not in part, to nominees of DTC or to a successor of DTC
or such successor’s nominee.


 


(ii)             
 Restricted Global Note to Regulation S Global Note. If the holder of a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note
at any time wishes to exchange its interest in such Restricted Global Note for an interest in the Regulation S Global Note, or to transfer
its interest in such Restricted Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the
Regulation S Global Note, such transfer or exchange may be effected, only in accordance with this clause (ii) and the rules and procedures
of DTC, in each case to the extent applicable (the “Applicable Procedures”). Upon receipt by the Registrar from the
Transfer Agent of (A) written instructions directing the Registrar to credit or cause to be credited an interest in the Regulation S Global
Note in a specified principal amount and to cause to be debited an interest in the Restricted Global Note in such specified principal
amount, and (B) a certificate in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest stating that the
transfer of such interest has been made in compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Global Notes and (x) pursuant to
and in accordance with Regulation S or (y) that the interest in the Restricted Global Note being transferred is being transferred in a
transaction permitted by Rule 144, then the Registrar shall reduce or cause to be reduced the principal amount of the Restricted Global
Note and shall cause DTC to increase or cause to be increased the principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note by the aggregate principal
amount of the interest in the Restricted Global Note to be exchanged or transferred.


 


(iii)           
Regulation S Global Note to Restricted Global Note. If the holder of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note
at any time wishes to transfer such interest to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the
Restricted Global Note, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with this clause (iii) and the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt
by the Registrar from the Transfer Agent of (A) written instructions directing the Registrar to credit or cause to be credited an interest
in the Restricted Global Note in a specified principal amount and to cause to be debited an interest in the Regulation S Global Note in
such specified principal amount, and (B) a certificate in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto given by the holder of such beneficial
interest stating that the transfer of such interest has been made in compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Global
Notes and stating that (x) the Person transferring such interest reasonably believes that the Person acquiring such interest is a QIB
and is obtaining such interest in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A and any applicable securities laws of any state
of the United States or (y) that the Person transferring such interest is relying on an exemption other than Rule 144A from the registration
requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and, in such circumstances, such Opinion of Counsel as the Issuer or the Trustee may reasonably
request to ensure that the requested transfer or exchange is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject
to, the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, then the Registrar shall reduce or cause to be reduced the principal amount
of the Regulation S Global Note and to increase or cause to be increased the principal amount of the Restricted Global Note by the aggregate
principal amount of the interest in such Regulation S Global Note to be exchanged or transferred.


 


(c)               If
Notes are issued upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing the restricted Notes legends set forth in Exhibit A
attached hereto, the Notes so issued shall bear the restricted Notes legends, and a request to remove such restricted Notes legends
from Notes shall not be honored unless there is delivered to the Issuer such satisfactory evidence, which may include an Opinion of
Counsel licensed to practice law in the State of New York, as may be reasonably required by the Issuer, that neither the legend nor
the restrictions on transfer set forth herein and therein are required to ensure that transfers thereof comply with the provisions
of Rule 144A or Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, the Trustee, at the direction
of the Issuer, shall (or shall direct the authenticating agent to) authenticate and deliver Notes that do not bear the legend.


 


(d)              
The Trustee and the Agents shall have no responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as
the case may be.


 






    14


     


    

 


(e)              
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.06, the Issuer is not required to register the transfer of any Definitive
Registered Notes:


 


(i)                
for a period of 15 days prior to any date fixed for the redemption of the Notes;


 


(ii)             
for a period of 15 days immediately prior to the date fixed for selection of Notes to be redeemed in part;


 


(iii)           
for a period of 15 days prior to the Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date;


 


(iv)            
which the Holder has tendered (and not withdrawn) for repurchase in connection with a Change of Control Offer.


 


Section 2.07.     
Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Definitive Registered Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder claims that
the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall (or shall direct the authenticating
agent to), upon receipt of an Issuer Order, authenticate a replacement Note in such form as the Note mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully
taken if the Holder satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Issuer and any requirement of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee
or the Issuer, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Issuer and the Trustee to protect the Issuer,
the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent, the Registrar and any co-Registrar, and any authenticating agent, from any loss that
any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Note.


 


In the event any such mutilated,
lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may pay such Note
instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof.


 


Every replacement Note shall
be an additional obligation of the Issuer.


 


The provisions of this Section
2.07 are exclusive and will preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of
mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Notes.


 


Section 2.08.     
Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by or on behalf of the Trustee except for
those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Subject to
Section 2.09, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note.


 


If a Note is replaced pursuant
to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Issuer receive proof satisfactory to them that the Note that has
been replaced is held by a bona fide purchaser.


 


If the Paying Agent holds,
in accordance with this Indenture, on a Redemption Date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal, interest, premium, if
any, and Additional Amounts, if any, payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing,
as the case may be, and the Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of
this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.


 


Section 2.09.     
Notes Held by Issuer. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any
direction or consent or any amendment, modification or other change to this Indenture, Notes owned by the Issuer or by any of its Affiliates
shall be disregarded and treated as if they were not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall
be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent or any amendment, modification or other change to this Indenture, only
Notes which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged
in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act
with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer or any of its Affiliates.


 






    15


     


    

 


Section 2.10.     
Definitive Registered Notes.


 


(a)              
A Global Note deposited with a custodian for DTC pursuant to Section 2.01 shall be transferred in whole to the beneficial owners
thereof in the form of Definitive Registered Notes only if such transfer complies with Section 2.06 and (i) DTC notifies the Issuer that
it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as depositary for such Global Note or DTC ceases to be registered as a clearing agency under
the Exchange Act, and in each case a successor depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days of such notice, (ii) the Issuer,
at its option, executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Global Note shall be so exchangeable
or (iii) the owner of a Book-Entry Interest requests such an exchange in writing delivered through DTC following an Event of Default under
this Indenture. Notice of any such transfer shall be given by the Issuer in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.01(a).


 


(b)               Any
Global Note that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Registered Notes pursuant to this
Section 2.10 shall be surrendered by the custodian for DTC, to the Transfer Agent, to be so transferred, in whole or from time to
time in part, without charge, and the Trustee shall itself or via the authenticating agent authenticate and deliver, upon such
transfer of each portion of such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount at maturity of Notes of authorized denominations
in the form of Definitive Registered Notes. Any portion of a Global Note transferred or exchanged pursuant to this Section 2.10
shall be executed, authenticated and delivered only in registered form in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples
of $1,000 in excess thereof and registered in such names as DTC may direct. Subject to the foregoing, a Global Note is not
exchangeable except for a Global Note of like denomination to be registered in the name of DTC or its nominee. In the event that a
Global Note becomes exchangeable for Definitive Registered Notes, payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the
Definitive Registered Notes will be payable, and the transfer of the Definitive Registered Notes will be registrable, at the office
or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purposes in accordance with Section 2.03. Such Definitive Registered Notes shall bear
the applicable legends set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.


 


(c)              
In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 2.10(a), the Issuer shall promptly make available to the
Trustee and the authenticating agent a reasonable supply of Definitive Registered Notes in definitive, fully registered form without interest
coupons.


 


Section 2.11.     
Cancellation. The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent
shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee, in accordance
with its customary procedures, and no one else shall cancel (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act and the
Trustee’s retention policy) all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and dispose of
such cancelled Notes in its customary manner. Except as otherwise provided in this Indenture, the Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace
Notes it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.


 


Section 2.12.     
Defaulted Interest. Any interest on any Note that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on the dates
and in the manner provided in the Notes and this Indenture (all such interest herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall
forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest
may be paid by the Issuer, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below:


 


(a)               The
Issuer may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Notes 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
Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the
proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer may deposit with the Paying Agent 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 for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such
Defaulted Interest as provided in this clause. In addition, the Issuer shall fix a special record date for the payment of such
Defaulted Interest, such date to be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the proposed payment date and not less
than 15 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment date. The Issuer shall promptly but, in any
event, not less than 15 days prior to the special record date, notify the Trustee of such special record date and, in the name and
at the expense of the Issuer, the Trustee shall cause notice of the proposed payment date of such Defaulted Interest and the special
record date therefor to be delivered first-class, postage prepaid to each Holder as such Holder’s address appears in the
Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment date of such Defaulted
Interest and the special record date therefor having been so delivered, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in
whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on such special record date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to
clause (b) below.


 






    16


     


    

 


(b)              
The Issuer may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Notes in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements
of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice
given by the Issuer to the Trustee of the proposed payment date pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed reasonably
practicable.


 


Subject to the foregoing provisions
of this Section 2.12, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other
Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note.


 


Section 2.13.     
Computation of Interest. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.


 


Section 2.14.     
ISIN and CUSIP Numbers. The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use ISIN and CUSIP numbers (if then generally in use), and,
if so, the Trustee shall use ISIN and CUSIP numbers, as appropriate, in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided
that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers or codes either as printed on
the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed
on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer shall promptly notify
the Trustee of any change in the ISIN or CUSIP numbers.


 


Section 2.15.     
Issuance of Additional Notes. The Issuer may issue Additional Notes from time to time under this Indenture in accordance
with the procedures of Section 2.02. The Original Notes issued on the Issue Date and any Additional Notes subsequently issued shall be

address of each Holder of Notes, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of such Notes and
(ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed to the
Par Call Date (exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption Date), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis
(assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus 50 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued
and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive
interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

At any time and from time to time on or after January 1, 2026 (the date that is six months prior to the maturity date of the Notes)
(the “Par Call Date”), the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of
the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders
of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.


 


Section 3.02.

the Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date and the record date, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, the Redemption Price
and the paragraph of the Notes pursuant to which the redemption will occur.


 


The Issuer shall give each

selection from the Notes outstanding and not previously called for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions equal to
$1,000 in principal amount and any integral multiple thereof; provided that no Notes of $2,000 in principal amount or less may

to be paid;


 


(iii)           
the name and address of the Paying Agent;


 


(iv)            
that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price plus accrued interest,
if any, and Additional Amounts, if any;


 


(v)              
that, if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount (equal to $1,000 in principal amount or any integral
multiple thereof) of such Note to be redeemed and that, on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes
in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be reissued;


 


(vi)            
that, if any Note contains an ISIN or CUSIP number, no representation is being made as to the correctness of such ISIN or CUSIP
number either as printed on the Notes or as contained in the notice of redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers printed on the Notes;


 


(vii)

the paragraph of the Notes or section of this Indenture pursuant to which such Notes called for redemption are being redeemed.


 


At the Issuer’s written
request, the Trustee shall give a notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s expense. In such event, the
Issuer shall provide the Trustee with the notice and the other information required by this Section 3.04.


 


For Notes which are represented
by global certificates held on behalf of DTC, notices may be given by delivery of the relevant notices to DTC for communication to entitled
account holders in substitution for the aforesaid delivery.


 


(c)               In
connection with any redemption of Notes described in this Section 3.04, any such redemption and/or notice of redemption may, at the
Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including the completion of any related refinancing or a
Change of Control. In addition, if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such
notice shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such
conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or
all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the redemption date, or by the redemption date so delayed.

Affiliates is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) a sum in same day funds sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and
accrued interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed on that date other than Notes or portions of Notes called

Issuer following a written request by the Issuer any money so deposited that is not required for that purpose.


 


Section 3.06.     
[Reserved].


 


Section 3.07.     
Payment of Notes Called for Redemption. If notice of redemption has been given in the manner provided below, the Notes or
portion of Notes called for redemption specified in such notice to be redeemed shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at
the Redemption Price stated therein, together with accrued interest to such Redemption Date, and on and after such date (unless the Issuer
shall default in the payment of such Notes at the Redemption Price and accrued interest to the Redemption Date, in which case the principal,
until paid, shall bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed in the Notes) such Notes shall cease to accrue interest.
Upon surrender of any Note for redemption in accordance with a notice of redemption, such Note shall be paid and redeemed by the Issuer
at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date; provided that installments of interest
whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders registered as such at the close of business
on the relevant Record Date.


 


Notice of redemption shall
be deemed to be given when delivered, whether or not the Holder receives the notice. In any event, failure to give such notice, or any
defect therein, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of Notes held by Holders to whom such notice was properly
given.


 


Section 3.08.     
Notes Redeemed in Part.


 


(a)              
Upon surrender of a Global Note that is redeemed in part, the Paying Agent shall forward such Global Note to the Registrar who
shall make a notation on the Security Register to reduce the principal amount of such Global Note to an amount equal to the unredeemed
portion of the Global Note surrendered; provided that each such Global Note shall be in a principal amount at final Stated Maturity
of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 


(b)              
Upon surrender and cancellation of a Definitive Registered Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee

Note surrendered and canceled; provided that each such Definitive Registered Note shall be in a principal amount at final Stated
Maturity of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 






    20


     


    

 


Section 3.09.     
Redemption for Changes in Taxes. The Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at its discretion at any time upon
giving not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice to the Holders of the Notes (which notice shall be irrevocable
and given in accordance with the procedures set forth under Section 3.04), at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount
thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date fixed by the Issuer for redemption (a “Tax
Redemption Date”) and all Additional Amounts (if any) then due or which will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result
of the redemption or otherwise (subject to the right of Holders of Notes on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant
Interest Payment Date and Additional Amounts (if any) in respect thereof), if on the next date on which any amount would be payable in
respect of the Notes, the Issuer is or would be required to pay Additional Amounts, and the Issuer cannot avoid any such payment obligation
by taking reasonable measures available (including, for the avoidance of doubt, appointment of a new Paying Agent but excluding the reincorporation
or reorganization of the Issuer), and the requirement arises as a result of:


 


(a)              
any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction
which change or amendment is announced and becomes effective after the date of the Offering Memorandum (or if the applicable Tax Jurisdiction
became a Tax Jurisdiction on a date after the date of the Offering Memorandum, after such later date); or


 


(b)              
any change in, or amendment to, the official application, administration or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings
(including by virtue of a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published practice), which change
or amendment is announced and becomes effective after the date of the Offering Memorandum (or if the applicable Tax Jurisdiction became
a Tax Jurisdiction on a date after the date of the Offering Memorandum, after such later date) (each of the foregoing clauses (a) and
(b), a “Change in Tax Law”).


 


The Issuer shall not give
any such notice of redemption earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to make such payment
or Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Notes were then due and at the time such notice is given, the obligation to pay Additional
Amounts must remain in effect. Prior to the delivery of any notice of redemption of the Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuer shall
deliver the Trustee an opinion of independent tax counsel of recognized standing qualified under the laws of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction
(which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) to the effect that there has been a Change in Tax Law which would entitle
the Issuer to redeem the Notes hereunder. In addition, before the Issuer delivers a notice of redemption of the Notes as described above,
it shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that it cannot avoid its obligation to pay Additional Amounts
by the Issuer taking reasonable measures available to it.


 


The Trustee will accept and
shall be entitled to rely on such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as sufficient evidence of the existence and satisfaction
of the conditions as described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on all of the Holders.


 


The foregoing provisions of
this Section 3.09 will apply, mutatis mutandis, to any successor of the Issuer with respect to a Change in Tax Law occurring after
the time such Person becomes successor to the Issuer.

such Lien equally and ratably with any and all other indebtedness thereby secured, so long as such indebtedness shall be so secured, unless
after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all such indebtedness for money borrowed secured by Liens on Principal Properties
plus all Attributable Debt of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of sale and leaseback transactions (as defined in

Except for a sale or transfer between a Restricted Subsidiary and the Issuer or between Restricted Subsidiaries, the Issuer covenants
and agrees that it will not and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to sell or transfer any Principal Property, with the intention
that the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary take back a lease thereof, except a lease for a period, including renewals, of less than
three years, by the end of which period it is intended that the use of such Principal Property by the lessee will be discontinued (any
such transaction being herein referred to as a “sale and leaseback transaction”) unless either:


 


(i)                
the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary could incur a Lien pursuant to Section 4.06 on the Principal Property securing indebtedness
for money borrowed in a principal amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to the sale and leaseback transaction without equally

A sale and leaseback transaction shall not include any sale and leaseback transactions (x) between the Issuer and a Restricted Subsidiary
or between Restricted Subsidiaries or (y) involving the temporary taking back of a lease for a period, including renewals, of less than

that any Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest; and


 


(x)              
that, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, any Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on and after the Change of Control Payment Date.


 


In the case of a
Change of Control Offer that is notified in accordance with the foregoing prior to a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Change of
Control Offer may be conditioned on the occurrence of the Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for
the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.

(c)               Upon
receipt by the Issuer of the proper tender of Notes, the Holder of the Note in respect of which such proper tender was made shall
(unless the tender of such Note is properly withdrawn) thereafter be entitled to receive solely the Change of Control Payment with
respect to such Note. Upon surrender of any such Note for purchase in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder of such
Note shall be paid by the Issuer on the Change of Control Payment Date; provided, however, that installments of
interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes,
registered as such on the relevant Record Dates according to the terms and the provisions of Section 4.01. If any Note tendered for
purchase in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.08 shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof, the principal thereof
(and premium, if any, thereon) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Change of Control Payment Date at the rate prescribed
therefor in such Note. Holders electing to have Notes purchased will be required to surrender such Notes to the Paying Agent at the
address specified in the Change of Control Offer at least one Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. Any Note
that is to be purchased only in part shall be surrendered to a Paying Agent at the office of such Paying Agent (with, if the Issuer,
the Registrar or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer
and the Registrar or the Trustee, as the case may be, duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly
authorized in writing), and the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note
without service charge, one or more new Notes, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in an aggregate principal
amount equal to and in exchange for, the portion of the principal amount of the Note so surrendered that is not purchased.


 


(d)              
On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all of the Notes or portions
of the Notes (in integral multiples of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered pursuant to the Change
of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount of money in same day funds sufficient to pay the aggregate Change of Control
Payment in respect of all of the Notes or portions of the Notes (in integral multiples of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof) which have been so tendered; and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an
Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of the Notes or portions thereof accepted for payment by the Issuer.
The Paying Agent shall promptly deliver to each Holder of the Notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the
Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to such Holders
a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note
will be in a principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Any Notes not so accepted shall be promptly
mailed or delivered by the Paying Agent at the Issuer’s expense to the Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results
of the Change of Control Offer on the Change of Control Payment Date.


 


(e)              
A tender made in response to a Change of Control Offer may be withdrawn if the Issuer receives, not later than the expiration date
for the Change of Control Offer, or if there is no such expiration date, one Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date,
a written notice of withdrawal, specifying, as applicable:


 


(i)                
the name of the Holder;


 


(ii)             
the certificate number of the Note in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted;


 






    26


     


    

 


(iii)           
 the principal amount of the Note (which shall be $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) delivered for purchase
by the Holder as to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted;


 


(iv)            
a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such principal amount of such Note purchased; and


 


(v)              
the principal amount, if any, of such Note (which shall be $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) that remains
subject to the original Change of Control Offer and that has been or will be delivered for purchase by the Issuer.


 


(f)               
Subject to applicable escheat laws, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return to the Issuer any cash that remains unclaimed,
together with interest or dividends, if any, thereon, held by them for the payment of the Change of Control Payment; provided,
however, that, (x) to the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Issuer pursuant to clause (ii) of paragraph
(d) above exceeds the aggregate Change of Control Payment of the Notes or portions thereof to be purchased, then the Trustee shall hold
such excess for the Issuer and (y) unless otherwise directed by the Issuer in writing, promptly after the Business Day following the Change
of Control Payment Date the Trustee shall return any such excess to the Issuer together with interest, if any, thereon.


 


(g)              
If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date,
and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.


 


(h)              
The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations
(and rules of any exchange on which the Notes are then listed) to the extent those laws, regulations or rules are applicable in connection
with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations
or exchange rules conflict with the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities
laws, regulations and rules and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Indenture by virtue of such compliance.


 


(i)                
The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if (i) a third party
makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture
applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change
of Control Offer or (ii) a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (f) of the Notes, unless and until
there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Change
of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive
agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.


 






    27


     


    

 


(j)                
 The provisions of this Section 4.08 relating to the Issuer’s obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes as a result
of a Change of Control Triggering Event may be waived or modified with the consent of Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Notes prior to the occurrence of the Change of Control.


 


Section 4.09.     
Additional Amounts.


 


(a)              
All payments made by or on behalf of the Issuer (including any successor entity) under or with respect to the Notes shall be made
free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future Taxes unless the withholding or deduction
of such Taxes is then required by law. If the Issuer or any other applicable withholding agent is required by law to withhold or deduct
any amount for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of (1) any jurisdiction (other than the United States) in
which the Issuer is or was incorporated, engaged in business, organized or resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision thereof
or therein or (2) any jurisdiction from or through which any payment is made by or on behalf of the Issuer (including, without limitation,
the jurisdiction of any Paying Agent) or any political subdivision thereof or therein (each of (1) and (2), a “Tax Jurisdiction”)
in respect of any payments under or with respect to the Notes, including, without limitation, payments of principal, redemption price,
purchase price, interest or premium, the Issuer shall pay such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may
be necessary in order that the net amounts received and retained in respect of such payments by each beneficial owner of the Notes after
such withholding or deduction will equal the respective amounts that would have been received and retained in respect of such payments
in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect
to:


 


(i)                
any Taxes, to the extent such Taxes would not have been imposed but for the holder or the beneficial owner of the Notes (or a fiduciary,
settlor, beneficiary, partner of, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, the relevant holder, if the relevant holder
is an estate, trust, nominee, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) being or having been a citizen or resident or national
of, or incorporated, engaged in a trade or business in, being or having been physically present in or having a permanent establishment
in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction or having or having had any other present or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, other
than any connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or disposition of the Notes, the exercise or enforcement of rights
under such Note or this Indenture, or the receipt of payments in respect of such Note;


 


(ii)             
any Taxes, to the extent such Taxes were imposed as a result of the presentation of a Note for payment (where presentation is required)
more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the holder (except to the extent that the holder would
have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented on the last day of such 30 day period);


 


(iii)           
any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar Taxes;


 






    28


     


    

 



 


(iv)            
 any Taxes payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments under, or with respect to, the Notes;


 


(v)              
any Taxes to the extent such Taxes would not have been imposed or withheld but for the failure of the holder or beneficial owner
of the Notes, following the Issuer’s reasonable written request addressed to the holder at least 60 days before any such withholding
or deduction would be imposed, to comply with any certification, identification, information or other reporting requirements, whether
required by statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of a Tax Jurisdiction, as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction
in the rate of deduction or withholding of, Taxes imposed by the Tax Jurisdiction (including, without limitation, a certification that
the holder or beneficial owner is not resident in the Tax Jurisdiction), but in each case, only to the extent the holder or beneficial
owner is legally eligible to provide such certification or documentation;


 


(vi)            
any Taxes imposed in connection with a Note presented for payment (where presentation is permitted or required for payment) by
or on behalf of a holder or beneficial owner of the Notes to the extent such Taxes could have been avoided by presenting the relevant
Note to, or otherwise accepting payment from, another Paying Agent;


 


(vii)         
any Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment by the Issuer to the holder of the Notes if such holder is a fiduciary or partnership
or any person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent that such Taxes would not have been imposed on such payments
had such holder been the sole beneficial owner of such Note;


 


(viii)       
any Taxes that are imposed pursuant to current Section 1471 through 1474 of the Code or any amended or successor version that is
substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with, any regulations promulgated thereunder, any official interpretations
thereof, any intergovernmental agreement between a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the United States (or any related law or administrative practices
or procedures) implementing the foregoing or any agreements entered into pursuant to current Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code (or any amended
or successor version described above); or


 


(ix)            
any combination of clauses (i) through (viii) above.


 


In addition to the foregoing,
the Issuer shall also pay and indemnify the holder for any present or future stamp, issue, registration, value added, court or documentary
Taxes, or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including penalties, interest and additions to tax related thereto)
which are levied by any jurisdiction on the execution, delivery, issuance, or registration of any of the Notes, this Indenture or any
other document referred to therein, or the receipt of any payments with respect thereto, or enforcement of, any of the Notes (limited,
solely in the case of Taxes attributable to the receipt of any payments, to any such Taxes imposed in a Tax Jurisdiction that are not
excluded under clauses (i) through (iii) or (v) through (ix) above or any combination thereof).


 



    29


     


    




 


(b)              
 If the Issuer becomes aware that it will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any payment under or with respect
to the Notes, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee on a date that is at least 30 days prior to the date of that payment (unless the
obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises after the 30th day prior to that payment date, in which case the Issuer shall notify the Trustee
promptly thereafter) an Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount estimated
to be so payable. The Officer’s Certificates must also set forth any other information reasonably necessary to enable the Paying
Agents to pay Additional Amounts to Holders on the relevant payment date. The Issuer will provide the Trustee with documentation reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of such Additional Amounts. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely absolutely on an
Officer’s Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary.


 


(c)              
The Issuer, if it is the applicable withholding agent, shall make all withholdings and deductions (within the time period) required
by law and shall remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Tax authority in accordance with applicable law. The Issuer
shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain Tax receipts from each Tax authority evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld.
The Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee (or to a Holder of the Notes upon request), within 60 days after the date the payment of any Taxes
so deducted or withheld is made, certified copies of Tax receipts evidencing payment by the Issuer, or if, notwithstanding such entity’s
efforts to obtain receipts, receipts are not obtained, other evidence of payments by such entity.


 


(d)              
Whenever in this Indenture or the Notes there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of amounts based upon the principal amount
of the Notes or of principal, interest or of any other amount payable under, or with respect to, any of the Notes, such mention shall
be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or
would be payable in respect thereof.


 


(e)              
This Section 4.09 shall survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture, any transfer by a holder or beneficial
owner of its Notes, and will apply, mutatis mutandis, to any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Issuer is incorporated,
engaged in business, organized or resident for tax purposes, or any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made under or with respect
to the Notes by or on behalf of such Person and, in each case, any political subdivision thereof or therein.


 


Section 4.10.     
Reports to Holders.


 


(a)              
The Issuer shall file with the Trustee, within 15 days after it has filed the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports
and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time
to time by rules and regulations prescribe) which it may be required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d)
of the Exchange Act; provided that the Issuer will be deemed to have filed copies of any such annual reports, documents or other
reports with the Trustee to the extent that such annual reports, documents or other reports are filed with the Commission via EDGAR (or
any successor electronic delivery procedure).


 






    30


     


    

 


(b)              
 If the Issuer is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it will, upon request,
furnish to any prospective purchaser of the Notes or beneficial owner of the Notes in connection with any sale thereof the information
required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the U.S. Securities Act so long as any notes remain outstanding and constitute “restricted securities”
within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act.


 


(c)              
Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and its receipt of such reports,
information and documents shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information
contained therein, including the Issuer’s or any other Person’s compliance with any of its covenants under this Indenture
or the Notes (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on the Officer’s Certificates delivered pursuant to this Indenture).
The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for the content, filing or timeliness of any report delivered or filed under or
in connection with this Indenture or the transactions contemplated thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall not have
any duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance or performance by the Issuer of its obligations under this Section 4.10 and
the Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for the Issuer’s nonperformance or non-compliance with such obligations.

The Issuer may consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as
an entirety to any Person, and may permit any Person to consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease its properties
and assets substantially as an entirety to it, provided that (1) immediately after giving effect to such transaction and treating any
indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Issuer as a result thereof as having been incurred by the Issuer at the time of such transaction,
no Event of Default, and no event which, after notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have occurred
and be continuing and (2) either the Issuer shall be the continuing corporation, or the successor Person (if other than the Issuer) shall
be a corporation, trust or partnership organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia, the
Republic of Liberia or any country recognized by the United States and such successor Person shall expressly assume the due and punctual

Section 5.02.       Rights
and Duties of Successor Corporation.


 


In case of any such consolidation, merger, transfer, lease or conveyance and upon any such
assumption by the successor Person, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for the Issuer, with the same effect
as if it had been named herein as the party of the first part, and the predecessor Person, except in the event of a lease, shall be
relieved of any further obligation under this Indenture and the Notes. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed, and
may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Issuer, any or all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall
not have been signed by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor Person, instead of the

shall deliver any Notes which previously shall have been signed and delivered by an officer of the Issuer to the Trustee for
authentication, and any Notes which such successor Person thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that
purpose. All the Notes so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Notes
theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Notes had been issued at the
date of the execution hereof.

also subject to the condition that the Trustee receive an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that
any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and the assumption by any successor Person, complies with the
provisions of this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied
with.

of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or the taking of corporate
action by the Issuer in furtherance of any such action.


 


Section 6.02.     
Acceleration.


 


(a)              
If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes occurs and is continuing, then the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25%
in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may declare the principal amount of all of the Notes to be immediately due and payable
by a notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or
specified amount) shall become immediately due and payable.


 


At any time after such a
declaration of acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the
Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes, by written notice to
the Issuer and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:


 






    33


     


    

 


(i)                
the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay;


 


(A)            
all overdue interest on all Notes,


 


(B)             
the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Notes which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and
any interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in the Notes,


 


(C)             
to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor
in the Notes, and


 


(D)            
all amounts owing the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.05; and


 


(ii)             
all Events of Default with respect to the Notes, other than the non-payment of the principal and premium, if any, of Notes which
have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.02.


 


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


 


Section 6.03.     
Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may (but shall not be obligated to) in its
discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders 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.


 


All rights of action and claims
under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee, without the possession of any of the Notes or the production
thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name and as
trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders in respect of which such
judgment has been recovered.


 


Section 6.04.     
Waiver of Past Defaults.


 


(a)              
The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes may, by written notice to the Trustee, on behalf of the
Holders of the Notes waive any past default hereunder with respect to such Notes and its consequences, except a default:


 


(i)                
in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on the Notes, or


 






    34


     


    

 





(ii)             
 in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the
Holder of each Note affected.


 


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


 


Section 6.05.     
Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes may direct the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee
under this Indenture; provided that:


 


(a)              
such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and


 


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


 


Section 6.06.     
Limitation on Suits. No Holder of any Note shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with
respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:


 


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


 


(b)              
the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes shall have made written request to the Trustee to
institute proceedings in respect of such event of default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;


 


(c)              
such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred
in compliance with such request;


 


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


 


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


 


Section 6.07.     
Unconditional Right of Holders to Bring Suit for Payment.


 


Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to bring suit for the enforcement of payment of principal, premium, if any, Additional
Amounts, if any, and interest, if any, on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Notes shall
not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.


 






    35


     


    

 


Section 6.08.     
Collection Suit by Trustee. The Issuer covenants that if default is made in the payment of:


 





(a)              
 any installment of interest on any Note when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of
30 days, or


 


(b)              
the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Note at the Stated Maturity thereof, the Issuer shall, upon demand of the Trustee,
pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal (and
premium, if any), Additional Amounts, if any and interest, and interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and Additional
Amounts, if any and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue installment of interest,
at the rate borne by the Notes, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the amounts provided for
in Section 7.05 and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.


 


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


 


Section 6.09.     
Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary
or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.05) and the Holders allowed in any judicial
proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on
behalf of the Holders at their direction in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and
any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee 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 for the compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.05.
To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel,
and any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.05 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason,
payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money securities and
other properties which the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization
or arrangement or otherwise.


 


Nothing herein contained shall
be deemed to empower 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 Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the
claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.10.     
Application of Money Collected. Subject to Section 6.10(b), if the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this
Article Six, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:


 


FIRST: to the Trustee and
any Agent for amounts due under Section 7.05;


 


SECOND: to the Holders for
amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal of, premium, if any, interest (with interest (to the extent that such interest has been
collected by the Trustee and is permitted by applicable law) upon the overdue installments of interest and overdue principal at the Overdue
Rate) applicable to the Notes, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according
to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, respectively;
and


 


THIRD: to the Issuer or any
other obligors of the Notes, as their interests may appear, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.


 


The Trustee may fix a record
date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. At least 30 days before such record date, the Issuer shall
deliver to each Holder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid. This Section 6.10
is subject at all times to the provisions set forth in Section 10.02.


 


Section 6.11.     
Undertaking for Costs. A 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
the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and 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 the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding Notes or to any suit by any Holder pursuant to Section 6.07.


 


Section 6.12.     
Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy
under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee
or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders
shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee
and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.


 


Section 6.13.     
Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed,
lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended
to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition
to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion of any right
or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.


 






    37


     


    

 


Section 6.14.     
Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or
remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or
an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article Six or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised
from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.


 


Section 6.15.     
Record Date. The Issuer may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to vote or to
consent to any action by vote or consent authorized or permitted by Sections 6.04 and 6.05. Unless this Indenture provides otherwise,
such record date shall be the later of 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or the date of the most recent list of
Holders furnished to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.05 prior to such solicitation.


 


Section 6.16.     
Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any
time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any 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 Issuer (to
the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it shall not
hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such
power as though no such law had been enacted.

TRUSTEE


 


Section 7.01.     
Duties of Trustee.


 


(a)              
If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice,
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 such person’s own affairs.


 


(b)              
Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01(a), the Trustee (i) undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically
set forth in this Indenture and no others and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee;
and (ii) shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Indenture.


 


(c)              
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.


 


(d)              
The Trustee shall not be relieved from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act
or its own willful misconduct, except that:


 


(i)                
the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee unless it
is proved that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and


 









    38


     


    

 



 


(ii)           
 the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
from the Issuer or the Holders, including, without limitation, any direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.02 or Section 6.05.


 


(e)           
The Trustee and any Paying Agent shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee and any Paying
Agent may agree in writing with the Issuer. Money held by the Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent need not be segregated from other
funds except to the extent required by law.


 


(f)           
No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee, each Agent, or the Principal Paying Agent to expend or risk its own funds
or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers,
if it shall have grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to
it.


 


(g)           
Any provisions hereof relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee or each Agent,
as the case may be, shall be subject to the provisions of this Article Seven.


 


Section 7.02.          
Certain Rights of Trustee.


 


(a)           
Following the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, the Trustee is entitled to require all Agents to act under its direction;


 


(b)           
The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless written notice
of such Default or Event of Default from the Issuer or any Holder is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. In the absence of receipt of such notice, the Trustee
may each conclusively assume that there is no Default or Event of Default;


 


(c)           
The Trustee may rely conclusively, 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, note, other evidence of indebtedness
or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person;


 


(d)           
Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both,
which shall conform to Section 10.02. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance
on such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel and such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel will be equal to
complete authorization;


 


(e)           
The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder either directly or by or through its attorneys, custodians, nominees
and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence or for the supervision, of any attorney, custodian, nominee or
agent appointed with due care by it hereunder;


 






    39


     


    

 


(f)           
 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, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security and/or indemnity (including by way
of prefunding) satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by the Trustee in compliance
with such request or direction;


 


(g)           
Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuer will be sufficient
if signed by an Officer of such Issuer;


 


(h)           
The Trustee (or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents) shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take
in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers;


 


(i)           
Whenever, in the administration of this Indenture, the Trustee shall deem it necessary or 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 Officer’s Certificate and such matter be deemed to be conclusively proved
and established by an Officer’s Certificate, and such Officer’s Certificate shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the reliance thereof;


 


(j)           
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, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other
paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion (but shall have no obligation) may make such further inquiry or investigation into
such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be
entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer personally or by agent or attorney;


 


(k)           
The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety with respect to the performance of its duties or the exercise of its
powers under this Indenture;


 


(l)           
In the event the Trustee receives inconsistent or conflicting requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders, each representing
less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee
shall not be obligated to act upon any such directions unless and until it receives a joint instruction from such directing parties or
an instruction from one party with the consent of the other;


 


(m)           
The permissive rights of the Trustee to take the actions permitted by this Indenture will not be construed as an obligation or
duty to do so;


 


(n)           
Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under Section 4.10 is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s
receipt of the foregoing will not constitute actual or constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information
contained therein, including the Issuer’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiary’s compliance with any of their covenants hereunder
(as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates);


 






    40


     


    

 


(o)           
 The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on, or to invest, any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing
with the Issuer;


 


(p)           
The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee in this Indenture, including, without limitation,
its rights to be indemnified and compensated, are extended to, and will be enforceable by, the Trustee in its capacity hereunder, by the
Registrar, the Agents, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder;


 


(q)           
The Trustee may consult with counsel or other professional advisors and the advice of such counsel or professional advisor or any
Opinion of Counsel will, subject to Section 7.01(c), be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any
action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon;


 


(r)           
The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the covenants of the Issuer and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries
in Article Four hereof;


 


(s)           
The Trustee shall not have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance, and shall not be responsible
or liable for compliance with restrictions on transfer, exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, of minimum denominations
imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law or regulation with respect to any transfer, exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase,
as applicable, of any interest in any Notes, but may at its sole discretion, choose to do so;


 


(t)           
The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Indenture
arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control, including, without limitation, any provision of
any law or regulation or any act of any governmental authority, acts of God; earthquakes; fire; flood; terrorism; wars and other military
disturbances; sabotage; epidemics or other public health crises; riots; interruptions; loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware
or software) or communication services; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority and governmental action or any
other causes beyond the Trustee’s control whether or not of the same class or kind as specified above.


 


(u)           
The Trustee shall not under any circumstance be liable for any indirect or consequential loss, special or punitive damages (including
loss of business, goodwill or reputation, opportunity or profit of any kind) of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary even if advised
of it in advance and even if foreseeable.


 


(v)           
The Trustee may request that the Issuer deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of the individuals and/or
titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer’s Certificate may
be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such
certificate previously delivered and not superseded.


 


(w)           
The
Trustee shall not be liable to any person if prevented or delayed in performing any of its obligations or discretionary functions
under this Indenture by reason of any present or future law applicable to it, by any governmental or regulatory authority or by any
circumstances beyond its control.


 






    41


     


    

 


(x)           
No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to do anything which, in its opinion, may be illegal or contrary to applicable
law or regulation.


 


(y)           
The Trustee may refrain from taking any action in any jurisdiction if the taking of such action in that jurisdiction would, in
its opinion, based upon legal advice in the relevant jurisdiction, be contrary to any law of that jurisdiction or, to the extent applicable,
the State of New York and may without liability (other than in respect of actions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence)
do anything which is, in its opinion, necessary to comply with any such law, directive or regulation.


 


(z)           
The Trustee may assume without inquiry in the absence of actual knowledge that the Issuer is duly complying with its obligations
contained in this Indenture required to be performed and observed by it, and that no Default or Event of Default or other event which
would require repayment of the Notes has occurred.


 


(aa)         
The Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon instructions, including funds transfer instructions (“Instructions”)
given pursuant to this Indenture and delivered using Electronic Means; provided, however, that the Issuer shall provide to the Trustee
an incumbency certificate listing officers with the authority to provide such Instructions (“Authorized Officers”) and containing
specimen signatures of such Authorized Officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended by the Issuer whenever a person is to be
added or deleted from the listing. If the Issuer elects to give the Trustee Instructions using Electronic Means and the Trustee in its
discretion elects to act upon such Instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed controlling. The
Issuer understands and agrees that the Trustee cannot determine the identity of the actual sender of such Instructions and that the Trustee
shall conclusively presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the incumbency certificate
provided to the Trustee have been sent by such Authorized Officer. The Issuer shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers
transmit such Instructions to the Trustee and that the Issuer and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible to safeguard the use
and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt by the Issuer. The Trustee
shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance
with such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Issuer
agrees: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic Means to submit Instructions to the Trustee, including without limitation
the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties; (ii) that it is
fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Instructions to the Trustee and that there
may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected by the Issuer; (iii) that the security procedures
(if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection
in light of its particular needs and circumstances; and (iv) to notify the Trustee immediately upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized
use of the security procedures.


 






    42


     


    

 


(bb)         
 In order to comply with laws, rules, regulations and executive orders in effect from time to time applicable to banking institutions,
including those relating to the funding of terrorist activities and money laundering (“Applicable AML Laws”), the Trustee
is required to obtain, verify and record certain information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business relationship
with the Trustee. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees to provide to the Trustee upon its request from time to time such identifying
information and documentation as may be available for such party in order to enable the Trustee to comply with Applicable AML Laws.


 


Section 7.03.          
Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee, any Transfer Agent, any Paying Agent, any Registrar or any other agent of the
Issuer or of the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of the Notes and, may otherwise deal
with the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Transfer Agent, Registrar or such other agent.
The Trustee may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Issuer
or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration
from the Issuer for services in connection with this Indenture and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Trustee or
to the Holders from time to time. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the TIA, the Trustee
shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of this Indenture.


 


Section 7.04.          
Disclaimer of Trustee. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes, except for the Trustee’s certificates of authentication,
shall be taken as the statements of the Issuer, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or the Notes. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s
use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer’s direction under any provision of this Indenture
nor shall it be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee and it will not
be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement on the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of
the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication.


 


Section 7.05.          
Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee such compensation as shall be agreed in writing for its
services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust.
The Issuer shall pay or reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, expenses and advances incurred or
made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions hereof or any other documents executed in connection herewith including costs
of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements,
charges, advances and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ.


 






    43


     


    

 


The Issuer shall
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Trustee and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, from and against
and reimburse the Trustee for any and all claims, obligations, losses, liabilities, expenses (including attorneys’ fees and
expenses), damages, injuries (to person, property, or natural resources), penalties, stamp or other similar taxes, actions, suits,
judgments of whatever kind or nature regardless of their merit, demanded, asserted, claimed or incurred by or against the Trustee
directly or indirectly relating to, or arising from, claims against the Trustee by reason of its participation in the transactions
contemplated hereby, including without limitation, the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer (including
this Section 7.05) and all reasonable costs required to be associated with claims for damages to persons or property, and reasonable
attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and expenses and court costs, except to the extent caused by the Trustee gross
negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure
by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall, at the sole
discretion of the Trustee, defend the claim and the Trustee may cooperate and may participate at the Issuer’s expense in such
defense. Alternatively, the Trustee may at its option have separate counsel of its own choosing and the Issuer shall pay the fees
and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent may not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Issuer shall not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense
incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence conclusively determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction not subject to appeal.


 


To secure the Issuer’s
payment obligations in this Section 7.05, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected
by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of all Notes under this Indenture.


 


When the Trustee incurs expenses
after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(ix) with respect to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, the expenses
are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Bankruptcy Law.


 


The Issuer’s obligations
under this Section 7.05 and any claim or Lien arising hereunder shall survive the resignation or removal of any Trustee, the satisfaction
and discharge of the Issuer’s obligations pursuant to Article Eight and any rejection or termination under any Bankruptcy Law, and
the termination of this Indenture.


 


Section 7.06.         
Replacement of Trustee. A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective
only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.06.


 


The Trustee may resign at
any time by giving written notice to the Issuer and the Holders. The Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the outstanding
Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer. The Issuer shall remove the Trustee if:


 


(a)           
the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.08;


 


(b)           
the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;


 


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


 


(d)           
the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.


 






    44


     


    

 


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


 


If the successor Trustee does
not deliver its written acceptance required by the next succeeding paragraph of this Section 7.06 within 30 days after the retiring Trustee
resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may,
at the expense of the Issuer, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.


 


A successor Trustee shall
deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee, as the case may be, and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation
or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, the retiring Trustee shall be released from its obligations hereunder, and
the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall deliver
a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall, at the expense of the Issuer, promptly transfer all property held by
it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided that all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the
Lien provided for in Section 7.05.


 


If a successor Trustee does
not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of at
least 30% in outstanding principal amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Trustee at the expense of the Issuer. Without prejudice to the right of the Issuer to appoint a successor Trustee in accordance with the
provisions of this Indenture, the retiring Trustee may appoint a successor Trustee at any time prior to the date on which a successor
Trustee takes office.


 


If the Trustee fails to comply
with Section 7.08, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may petition any court of competent jurisdiction
for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.


 


Notwithstanding the replacement
of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.06, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.05 shall continue for the benefit of the
retiring Trustee.


 


Section 7.07.          Successor
Trustee by Merger. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or
any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate 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 Seven, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Notes 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 Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such
successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes. In case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any
successor Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor
Trustee. In all such cases such certificates shall have the full force and effect which this Indenture provides for the certificate
of authentication of the Trustee shall have; provided that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any
predecessor Trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors
by merger, conversion or consolidation.


 






    45


     


    

 


Section 7.08.          
Eligibility; Disqualification. There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trustee power and which is generally recognized as a corporation which customarily performs such corporate trustee roles and provides
such corporate trustee services in transactions similar in nature to the offering of the Notes as described in the Offering Memorandum.
The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, as set forth in its most recent published annual report
of condition.


 


Section 7.09.          
Appointment of Co-Trustee.


 


(a)           
It is the purpose of this Indenture that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the
right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation
under this Indenture, and in particular in case of the enforcement thereof on Default, or in the case the Trustee deems that by reason
of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers, rights or remedies herein granted to the Trustee
or hold title to the properties, in trust, as herein granted or take any action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith,
it may be necessary that the Trustee appoint an individual or institution as a separate or co-trustee. The following provisions of this
Section 7.09 are adopted to these ends.


 


(b)           
In the event that the Trustee appoints an additional individual or institution as a separate or co-trustee, each and every remedy,
power, right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity, estate, title, interest and Lien expressed or intended by this Indenture to be
exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Trustee with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vest in such separate or co-trustee
but only to the extent necessary to enable such separate or co-trustee to exercise such powers, rights and remedies, and only to the extent
that the Trustee by the laws of any jurisdiction is incapable of exercising such powers, rights and remedies, and every covenant and obligation
necessary to the exercise thereof by such separate or co-trustee shall run to and be enforceable by either of them.


 


(c)            Should
any instrument in writing from the Issuer be required by the separate or co-trustee so appointed by the Trustee for more fully and
certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, any and all such
instruments in writing shall to the extent permitted by the laws of the State of New York and the jurisdictions of organization of
the Issuer, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer; provided that if an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, if the Issuer do not execute any such instrument within 15 days after request therefor, the Trustee
shall be empowered as an attorney-in-fact for the Issuer to execute any such instrument in the Issuer’s name and stead. In
case any separate or co-trustee or a successor to either shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the
estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such separate or co-trustee, so far as permitted by law,
shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee until the appointment of a new trustee or successor to such separate or
co-trustee.


 






    46


     


    

 


(d)           
Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions
and conditions:


 


(i)           
all rights and powers, conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and may be exercised or performed
by such separate trustee or co-trustee; and


 


(ii)           
no trustee hereunder shall be liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder.


 


(e)           
Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees
and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer
to this Indenture and the conditions of this Article Seven.


 


(f)           
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority,
to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Indenture on its behalf and in its name. If any
separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies
and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successors
trustee.


 


Section 7.10.          
Resignation of Agents.


 


(a)           
Any Agent may resign its appointment hereunder at any time without the need to give any reason and without being responsible for
any costs associated therewith by giving to the Issuer and the Trustee and (except in the case of resignation of the Principal Paying
Agent) the Principal Paying Agent 30 days’ written notice to that effect (waivable by the Issuer and the Trustee); provided that
in the case of resignation of the Principal Paying Agent no such resignation shall take effect until a new Principal Paying Agent (approved
in advance in writing by the Trustee) shall have been appointed by the Issuer to exercise the powers and undertake the duties hereby conferred
and imposed upon the Principal Paying Agent. Following receipt of a notice of resignation from any Agent, the Issuer shall promptly give
notice thereof to the Holders in accordance with Section 10.01. Such notice shall expire at least 30 days before or after any due date
for payment in respect of the Notes.


 


(b)           
If any Agent gives notice of its resignation in accordance with this Section 7.10 and a replacement Agent is required and by the
tenth day before the expiration of such notice such replacement has not been duly appointed, such Agent may itself appoint as its replacement
any reputable and experienced financial institution. Immediately following such appointment, the Issuer shall give notice of such appointment
to the Trustee, the remaining Agents and the Holders whereupon the Issuer, the Trustee, the remaining Agents and the replacement Agent
shall acquire and become subject to the same rights and obligations between themselves as if they had entered into an agreement in the
form mutatis mutandis of this Indenture.


 






    47


     


    

 


(c)           
 Upon its resignation becoming effective the Principal Paying Agent shall forthwith transfer all moneys held by it hereunder hereof
to the successor Principal Paying Agent or, if none, the Trustee or to the Trustee’s order, but shall have no other duties or responsibilities
hereunder, and shall be entitled to the payment by the Issuer of its remuneration for the services previously rendered hereunder and to
the reimbursement of all reasonable expenses (including legal fees) incurred in connection therewith.


 


Section 7.11.          
Agents General Provisions.


 


(a)           
Actions of Agents. The rights, powers, duties and obligations and actions of each Agent under this Indenture are several
and not joint or joint and several.


 


(b)           
Agents of Trustee. The Issuer and the Agents acknowledge and agree that in the event of a Default or Event of Default, the
Trustee may, by notice in writing to the Issuer and the Agents, require that the Agents act as agents of, and take instructions exclusively
from, the Trustee. Prior to receiving such written notification from the Trustee, the Agents shall be the agents of the Issuer and need
have no concern for the interests of the Holders.


 


(c)           
Funds held by Agents. The Agents will hold all funds subject to the terms of this Indenture.


 


(d)           
Publication of Notices. Any obligation the Agents may have to publish a notice to Holders of Global Notes on behalf of the
Issuer will be met upon delivery of the notice to DTC.


 


(e)           
Instructions. In the event that instructions given to any Agent are not reasonably clear, then such Agent shall be entitled
to seek clarification from the Issuer or other party entitled to give the Agents instructions under this Indenture by written request
promptly, and in any event within one Business Day of receipt by such Agent of such instructions. If an Agent has sought clarification
in accordance with this Section 7.11, then such Agent shall be entitled to take no action until such clarification is provided, and shall
not incur any liability for not taking any action pending receipt of such clarification.


 


(f)           
No Fiduciary Duty. No Agent shall be under any fiduciary duty or other obligation towards, or have any relationship of agency
or trust, for or with any person.


 


(g)            Mutual
Undertaking. Each party shall, within ten Business Days of a written request by another party, supply to that other party such
forms, documentation and other information relating to it, its operations, or the Notes as that other party reasonably requests for
the purposes of that other party’s compliance with applicable law and shall notify the relevant other party reasonably
promptly in the event that it becomes aware that any of the forms, documentation or other information provided by such party is (or
becomes) inaccurate in any material respect; provided, however, that no party shall be required to provide any forms,
documentation or other information pursuant to this Section 7.11(g) to the extent that: (i) any such form, documentation or other
information (or the information required to be provided on such form or documentation) is not reasonably available to such party and
cannot be obtained by such party using reasonable efforts; or (ii) doing so would or might in the reasonable opinion of such party
constitute a breach of any: (a) applicable law or (b) duty of confidentiality. For purposes of this Section 7.11(g),
 “applicable law” shall be deemed to include (i) any rule or practice of any regulatory or governmental authority by
which any party is bound or with which it is accustomed to comply; (ii) any agreement between any Authorities; and (iii) any
agreement between any regulatory or governmental authority and any party that is customarily entered into by institutions of a
similar nature.


 






    48


     


    

 



 


(h)              
Tax Withholding.


 


(i)                
The Issuer shall notify each Agent in the event that it determines that any payment to be made by an Agent under the Notes is a
payment which could be subject to FATCA Withholding if such payment were made to a recipient that is generally unable to receive payments
free from FATCA Withholding, and the extent to which the relevant payment is so treated; provided, however, that the Issuer’s
obligations under this Section 7.11(h) shall apply only to the extent that such payments are so treated by virtue of characteristics of
the Issuer, the Notes, or both.


 


(ii)             
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, each Agent shall be entitled to make a deduction or withholding from any
payment which it makes under the Notes for or on account of any Tax, if and only to the extent so required by Applicable Law, in which
event the Agent shall make such payment after such deduction or withholding has been made and shall account to the relevant Authority
within the time allowed for the amount so deducted or withheld or, at its option, shall reasonably promptly after making such payment
return to the Issuer the amount so deducted or withheld, in which case, the Issuer shall so account to the relevant Authority for such
amount. For the avoidance of doubt, FATCA Withholding is a deduction or withholding which is deemed to be required by Applicable Law for
the purposes of this Section 7.11(h)(ii).

DEFEASANCE; SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE


 


Section 8.01.     
Issuer’s Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Issuer may, at its option and at any time prior to
the Stated Maturity of the Notes, by a resolution of its Board of Directors, elect to have either Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 be applied
to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article Eight.


 


Section 8.02.      Defeasance
and Discharge. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuer
shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to the outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set
forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Legal Defeasance
means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes and
to have satisfied all its other obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer, shall
execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise
terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive, solely from the trust fund described
in Section 8.08 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and
interest (including Additional Amounts) on such Notes when such payments are due, (b) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to
the Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance
of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and
immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Issuer’s obligations in connection therewith and (d) the provisions of this
Article Eight. Subject to compliance with this Article Eight, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02
notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 below with respect to the Notes. If the Issuer exercises its
Legal Defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default.


 






    49


     


    

 


Section 8.03.     
Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03,
the Issuer shall be released from their obligations under any covenant contained in Sections 4.04 through 4.08, 4.10 and 5.01 with respect
to the Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”).
For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, the Issuer may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any
term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein
to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such
omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture
and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby.


 


Section 8.04.     
Conditions to Defeasance. In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to the Notes:


 


(a)              
the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars,
non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will
be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, to
pay the principal of, or interest (including Additional Amounts and premium, if any) on the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment
thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuer must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to
such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date;


 


(b)              
in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee:


 


(i)                
an opinion of United States counsel, which counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, confirming that (A) the Issuer has
received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the Issue Date, there has been
a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of counsel will
confirm that, the holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result
of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the
case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; and


 


(ii)              an
Opinion of Counsel in the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Issuer, which counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, to the
effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for tax purposes of such jurisdiction as a result of
such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to tax in such jurisdiction on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the
same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred;


 






    50


     


    

 


(c)              
in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee:


 


(i)                
an opinion of United States counsel, which counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, confirming that the holders of the
outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance
and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case
if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; and


 


(ii)             
an opinion of counsel in the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Issuer, which counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee,
to the effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for tax purposes of such jurisdiction as a result
of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to tax in such jurisdiction on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same
times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred;


 


(d)              
no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event
of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other indebtedness),
and the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings);


 


(e)              
such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material
agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture and the agreements governing any other indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced)
to which the Issuer is a party or by which the Issuer is bound;


 


(f)               
the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with
the intent of preferring the holders of Notes over the other creditors of the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying
or defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or others; and


 


(g)              
the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.


 


If the funds deposited with
the Trustee to effect Covenant Defeasance are insufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when due
because of any acceleration occurring after an Event of Default, then the Issuer shall remain liable for such payments.


 


Section 8.05.     
Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect as to
all Notes issued thereunder, when:


 




    51


     


    

 


(a)              
 either:


 


(i)                
all Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose
payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Issuer, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or


 


(ii)             
all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (A) have become due and payable by reason of the delivery
of a notice of redemption or otherwise, (B) will become due and payable within one year, or (C) are to be called for redemption within
one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the
expense, of the Issuer, and in each case, the Issuer has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds
in trust solely for the benefit of the holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in
U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment
bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge
the entire indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any,
and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; provided that, upon any redemption that requires the payment of a premium,
the amount deposited shall be sufficient to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the premium calculated as
of the date of the notice of redemption, with any deficit on the date of redemption only required to be deposited with the Trustee on
or prior to the date of redemption (it being understood that any satisfaction and discharge shall be subject to the condition subsequent
that such deficit is in fact paid);


 


(b)              
the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it with respect to the Notes under this Indenture;


 


(c)              
the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment
of the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be; and


 


(d)              
the Issuer has delivered an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent
to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied; provided that any such counsel may rely on any Officer’s Certificate as
to matters of fact (including as to compliance with the foregoing clauses (a), (b) and (c)).


 


Section 8.06.     
Survival of Certain Obligations. Notwithstanding Sections 8.01 and 8.03, any obligations of the Issuer in Sections 2.02
through 2.14, 6.07, 7.05 and 7.06 shall survive until the Notes have been paid in full. Thereafter, any obligations of the Issuer in Section
7.05 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge. Nothing contained in this Article Eight shall abrogate any of the obligations or duties
of the Trustee under this Indenture.


 


Section 8.07.      Acknowledgment
of Discharge by Trustee. Subject to Section 8.09, after the conditions of Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 and Section 8.04 have
been satisfied, the Trustee upon written request shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of all of the Issuer’s obligations
under this Indenture except for those surviving obligations specified in this Article Eight.


 






    52


     


    

 


Section 8.08.     
Application of Trust Money. Subject to Section 8.09, the Trustee shall hold in trust cash in U.S. dollars or U.S. Government
Obligations deposited with it pursuant to this Article Eight. It shall apply the deposited cash or Government Securities through the Paying

on the Notes; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

to the Issuer upon request set forth in an Officer’s Certificate any excess money held by them at any time and thereupon shall be
relieved from all liability with respect to such money. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon request any money
held by them for the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, that remains unclaimed for two years;
provided that the Trustee or Paying Agent before being required to make any payment may cause to be published through the newswire
service of Bloomberg or, if Bloomberg does not then operate, any similar agency or deliver to each Holder entitled to such money at such
Holder’s address (as set forth in the Security Register) notice that such money remains unclaimed and that after a date specified
therein (which shall be at least 30 days from the date of such publication or delivery) any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining
will be repaid to the Issuer. After payment to the Issuer, Holders entitled to such money must look to the Issuer for payment as general
creditors unless an applicable law designates another Person, and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such
money shall cease.


 


Section 8.10.     
Indemnity for Government Securities. The Issuer shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee and the Paying Agent against any
tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited Government Securities or the principal, premium, if any, interest, if

Certificate is based are erroneous. Any Opinion of Counsel may be based and may state that it is so based, insofar as it relates to factual
matters, upon certificates of public officials or an Officer’s Certificate stating that the information with respect to such factual
matters is in the possession of the Issuer, unless the counsel signing such Opinion of Counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable

to securities laws of the United States of America or any state thereof, in such courts whether on the grounds of venue, residence or
domicile or on the ground that any such suit, action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Issuer agrees that final
judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Issuer and may be enforced
in any court to the jurisdiction of which the Issuer is subject by a suit upon such judgment; provided that service of process

by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Note, each Holder shall waive and release all such liability. The waiver

legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Indemnity. Any payment on account of an amount that is payable in U.S. dollars (the “Required Currency”)
which is made to or for the account of any holder or the Trustee in lawful currency of any other jurisdiction (the
 “Judgment Currency”), whether as a result of any judgment or order or the enforcement thereof or the liquidation
of the Issuer, shall constitute a discharge of the Issuer’s obligation under this Indenture and the Notes, only to the extent
of the amount of the Required Currency which may be purchased in the London foreign exchange markets with the amount of the Judgment
Currency in accordance with normal banking procedures at the rate of exchange prevailing on the first Business Day following receipt
of the payment in the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Required Currency that could be so purchased is less than the amount
of the Required Currency originally due to such holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, the Issuer shall indemnify and hold
harmless the holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, from and against all loss or damage arising out of, or as a result of, such
deficiency. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this
Indenture or the Notes, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence
granted by any holder or the Trustee from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or
order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due hereunder or under any judgment or order.

such Taxes is then required by law. If the Issuer or any other applicable withholding agent is required by law to withhold or deduct any
amount for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of (1) any jurisdiction (other than the United States) in which
the Issuer is or was incorporated, engaged in business, organized or resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision thereof or
therein or (2) any jurisdiction from or through which any payment is made by or on behalf of the Issuer (including, without limitation,
the jurisdiction of any Paying Agent) or any political subdivision thereof or therein (each of (1) and (2), a “Tax Jurisdiction”)
in respect of any payments under or with respect to the Notes, including, without limitation, payments of principal, redemption price,
purchase price, interest or premium, the Issuer shall pay such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may
be necessary in order that the net amounts received and retained in respect of such payments by each beneficial owner of the Notes after
such withholding or deduction shall equal the respective amounts that would have been received and retained in respect of such payments
in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect
to:


 


(1)       any
Taxes, to the extent such Taxes would not have been imposed but for the holder or the beneficial owner of the Notes (or a fiduciary, settlor,
beneficiary, partner of, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, the relevant holder, if the relevant holder is an estate,
trust, nominee, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) being or having been a citizen or resident or national of, or incorporated,
engaged in a trade or business in, being or having been physically present in or having a permanent establishment in, the relevant Tax
Jurisdiction or having or having had any other present or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, other than any connection
arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or disposition of Notes, the exercise or enforcement of rights under such Note or the Indenture,
or the receipt of payments in respect of such Note;


 



    A-5


     


    




 



 


(2)       any
Taxes, to the extent such Taxes were imposed as a result of the presentation of a Note for payment (where presentation is required) more
than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the holder (except to the extent that the holder would
have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented on the last day of such 30 day period);


 


(3)       any
estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar Taxes;


 


(4)       any
Taxes payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments under, or with respect to, the Notes;


 


(5)       any
Taxes to the extent such Taxes would not have been imposed or withheld but for the failure of the holder or beneficial owner of the Notes,
following the Issuer’s reasonable written request addressed to the holder at least 60 days before any such withholding or deduction
would be imposed, to comply with any certification, identification, information or other reporting requirements, whether required by statute,
treaty, regulation or administrative practice of a Tax Jurisdiction, as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of
deduction or withholding of, Taxes imposed by the Tax Jurisdiction (including, without limitation, a certification that the holder or
beneficial owner is not resident in the Tax Jurisdiction), but in each case, only to the extent the holder or beneficial owner is legally
eligible to provide such certification or documentation;


 


(6)       any
Taxes imposed in connection with a Note presented for payment (where presentation is permitted or required for payment) by or on behalf
of a holder or beneficial owner of the Notes to the extent such Taxes could have been avoided by presenting the relevant Note to, or otherwise
accepting payment from, another Paying Agent;


 


(7)       any
Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment by the Issuer to the holder of the Notes if such holder is a fiduciary or partnership
or any person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent that such Taxes would not have been imposed on such payments
had such holder been the sole beneficial owner of such Note;


 


(8)       any
Taxes that are imposed pursuant to current Section 1471 through 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)
or any amended or successor version that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with, any regulations promulgated
thereunder, any official interpretations thereof, any intergovernmental agreement between a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the United States
(or any related law or administrative practices or procedures) implementing the foregoing or any agreements entered into pursuant to current
Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code (or any amended or successor version described above); or


 


(9)        any
combination of clauses (1) through (8) above.


 






    A-6


     


    

 


In addition to the
foregoing, the Issuer will also pay and indemnify the holder for any present or future stamp, issue, registration, value added,
court or documentary Taxes, or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including penalties, interest and
additions to tax related thereto) which are levied by any jurisdiction on the execution, delivery, issuance, or registration of any
of the Notes, the Indenture or any other document referred to therein, or the receipt of any payments with respect thereto, or
enforcement of, any of the Notes (limited, solely in the case of Taxes attributable to the receipt of any payments, to any such
Taxes imposed in a Tax Jurisdiction that are not excluded under clauses (1) through (3) or (5) through (9) above or any combination
thereof).


 


(b)       If
the Issuer becomes aware that it will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any payment under or with respect to the
Notes, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee on a date that is at least 30 days prior to the date of that payment (unless the obligation
to pay Additional Amounts arises after the 30th day prior to that payment date, in which case the Issuer shall notify the Trustee promptly
thereafter) an Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount estimated to be so
payable. The Officer’s Certificates must also set forth any other information reasonably necessary to enable the Paying Agents to
pay Additional Amounts to Holders on the relevant payment date. The Issuer will provide the Trustee with documentation reasonably satisfactory
to the Trustee evidencing the payment of Additional Amounts. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely absolutely on an Officer’s Certificate
as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary.


 


(c)       The
Issuer, if it is the applicable withholding agent, will make all withholdings and deductions (within the time period) required by law
and will remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Tax authority in accordance with applicable law. The Issuer will use
its reasonable efforts to obtain Tax receipts from each Tax authority evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld. The
Issuer will furnish to the Trustee (or to a Holder upon request), within 60 days after the date the payment of any Taxes so deducted or
withheld is made, certified copies of Tax receipts evidencing payment by the Issuer, or if, notwithstanding such entity’s efforts
to obtain receipts, receipts are not obtained, other evidence of payments by such entity.


 


(d)       Whenever
in the Indenture or this Note there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of amounts based upon the principal amount of the Notes
or of principal, interest or of any other amount payable under, or with respect to, any of the Notes, such mention shall be deemed to
include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable
in respect thereof.


 


(e)       The
preceding obligations will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the Indenture, any transfer by a holder or beneficial owner
of its Notes, and will apply, mutatis mutandis, to any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Issuer is incorporated,
engaged in business, organized or resident for tax purposes, or any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made under or with respect
to the Notes by or on behalf of such Person and, in each case, any political subdivision thereof or therein.


 


		·	Method of Payment



 


The Issuer shall pay
interest on this Note (except defaulted interest) to the Holder at the close of business on the Record Date for the next Interest
Payment Date even if this Note is cancelled after the Record Date and on or before the Interest Payment Date. The Issuer shall pay
principal and interest in dollars in immediately available funds that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public
and private debts; provided that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Issuer by check mailed to the
Holder.


 






    A-7 


     


    

 


The amount of payments in
respect of interest on each Interest Payment Date shall correspond to the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by this Note,
as established by the Registrar at the close of business on the relevant Record Date. Payments of principal shall be made upon surrender
of this Note to the Paying Agent.


 


		·	Paying Agent and Registrar



 


Initially, The Bank of New
York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. or one of its affiliates will act as Principal Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer or any of its Affiliates
may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar.


 


		·	Indenture



 


The Issuer issued this Note
under an indenture dated as of June 24, 2021 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”),
between the Issuer and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”) and as Principal
Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Registrar. The terms of this Note include those stated in the Indenture. Terms defined in the Indenture
and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the
express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.


 


		·	Optional Redemption



 


(a)       Prior
to the Par Call Date, the Issuer shall have the right at its option to redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time or from time
to time prior to their maturity, on at least 10 days, but not more than 60 days, prior notice delivered to the registered address of each
Holder of Notes, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of such Notes and (ii) the sum of the
present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed to the Par Call Date (exclusive
of interest accrued to the Redemption Date), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting
of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus 50 basis points for the Notes, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon
to the Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant
interest payment date.


 


(b)       At
any time and from time to time on or after January 1, 2026 (the date that is six months prior to the maturity date of the Notes) (the
 “Par Call Date”), the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the
principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders
of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.


 






    A-8 


     


    

 


		·	Redemption for Changes in Taxes



 


The Issuer may redeem the
Notes, in whole but not in part, at its discretion at any time upon giving not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior written
notice to the Holders of the Notes (which notice shall be irrevocable and given in accordance with the procedures set forth under Section
3.04 of the Indenture), at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest,
if any, to, but excluding, the date fixed by the Issuer for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) and all Additional Amounts
(if any) then due or which will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise (subject to the right
of Holders of the Notes on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date and Additional Amounts
(if any) in respect thereof), if on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Notes, the Issuer is or would
be required to pay Additional Amounts, and the Issuer cannot avoid any such payment obligation by taking reasonable measures available
(including, for the avoidance of doubt, appointment of a new Paying Agent but excluding the reincorporation or reorganization of the Issuer),
and the requirement arises as a result of: (1) any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder)
of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction which change or amendment is announced and becomes effective after the date of the Offering Memorandum
(or if the applicable Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction on a date after the date of the Offering Memorandum, after such later
date); or (2) any change in, or amendment to, the official application, administration or interpretation of such laws, regulations or
rulings (including by virtue of a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published practice),
which change or amendment is announced and becomes effective after the date of the Offering Memorandum (or if the applicable Tax Jurisdiction
became a Tax Jurisdiction on a date after the date of the Offering Memorandum, after such later date) (each of the foregoing clauses (1)
and (2), a “Change in Tax Law”).


 


The Issuer shall not give
any such notice of redemption earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to make such payment
or Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Notes were then due and at the time such notice is given, the obligation to pay Additional
Amounts must remain in effect. Prior to the delivery of any notice of redemption of the Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuer shall
deliver the Trustee an opinion of independent tax counsel of recognized standing qualified under the laws of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction
(which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) to the effect that there has been a Change in Tax Law which would entitle
the Issuer to redeem the Notes hereunder. In addition, before the Issuer delivers notice of redemption of the Notes as described above,
it shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that it cannot avoid its obligation to pay Additional Amounts
by the Issuer taking reasonable measures available to it.


 


The Trustee will accept and
shall be entitled to rely on such Officer’s Certificate and opinion of counsel as sufficient evidence of the existence and satisfaction
of the conditions as described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on all of the Holders.


 


The foregoing provisions of
this paragraph 7 will apply, mutatis mutandis, to any successor of the Issuer with respect to a Change in Tax Law occurring after
the time such Person becomes successor to the Issuer.
