Without limiting the
generality of this Section 1.04, unless otherwise established in or pursuant to a Board Resolution or set forth or determined in
an Officer’s Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, pursuant to Section 3.01, a Holder,
including a U.S. Depository that is a Holder of a global Security, may make, give or take, by a proxy, or proxies, duly appointed
in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to
be made, given or taken by Holders, and a U.S. Depository that is a Holder of a global Security may provide its proxy or proxies
to the beneficial owners of interests in any such global Security through such U.S. Depository’s standing instructions and
customary practices.


 


Other than in those
situations set forth in 1.04(d), the Trustee shall fix a record date, which shall be not more than 30 days prior to the first solicitation
of such Holders, for the purpose of determining the Persons who are beneficial owners of interest in any permanent global Security
held by a U.S. Depository entitled under the procedures of such U.S. Depository to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly
appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture
to be made, given or taken by Holders. If such a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date or their duly appointed
proxy or proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. No such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be valid or effective if made, given or taken more than
90 days after such record date.


 


(b)          The
fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any reasonable manner which the
Trustee deems sufficient and in accordance with such reasonable rules as the Trustee may determine; and the Trustee may in any
instance require further proof with respect to any of the matters referred to in this Section.


 


(c)          The
ownership, principal amount and serial numbers of Securities held by any Person, and the date of the commencement and the date
of termination of holding the same, shall be proved by the Security Register.


 


(d)          If
the Company shall solicit from the Holders of any Securities any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other Act, the Company may at its option, by Board Resolutions, fix in advance a record date, which shall be not more than 30
days prior to the first solicitation of such Holders, for the determination of Holders of Securities entitled to give such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such
a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before
or after such record date, but only the Holders of Securities of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed
to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities have authorized
or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose
the Outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; provided no such authorization, agreement or consent of the
Holders of Securities shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not
later than six months after the record date.


 


(e)          Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Security shall bind every
future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange
therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee, any Security Registrar, any Paying
Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.


 


Section 1.05        Notices,
Etc., to Trustee and Company.


 


Any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to
be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,


 


(1)         the
Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing
to or with a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, or


 


(2)         the
Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided)
if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to the attention of its Treasurer at the address
of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this Indenture or at any other address previously furnished in writing

Section 1.06         Notice
to Holders; Waiver.


 


Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein or in any Security, where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall
be sufficiently given to Holders if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event,
at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date,
prescribed for the giving of such Notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such
notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect
to other Holders. Any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given
or provided. In the case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable
to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient
notification for every purpose hereunder.


 


Where this Indenture
provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before
or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the
Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.


 


Notwithstanding any
other provision herein, where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to any Holder of an interest in a Global Security
(whether by mail or otherwise), such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depository for such Security (or its designee),
according to the applicable procedures of such Depository, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice.


 


Section 1.07         Language
of Notices.


 


Any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, election or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English
language, except that, if the Company so elects, any published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication.


 


Section 1.08         Conflict
With Trust Indenture Act.


 


If any provision hereof
limits, qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed pursuant to Section 318(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, such imposed duties
shall control.

of Headings and Table of Contents.

in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Clause.


 


In case any provision
in this Indenture or any Security shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Agent and their successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.


 


Section 1.13         Governing
Law.


 


This Indenture and
the Securities shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina, applicable to agreements
made or instruments entered into and, in each case, performed in said state; provided, however, that the rights, immunities, duties
and liabilities of the Trustee will be governed by New York law.


 


Section 1.14         Legal
Holidays.


 


In any case where any
Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security, or the last day on which a Holder has the right to convert
these Securities, is not a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or
any Security other than a provision in any Security that specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section)
payment of interest or any Additional Amounts or principal (and premium, if any) or conversion of the Securities need not be made
at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same
force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity, or the last such day of
conversion, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption
Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.


 


Section 1.15         When
Securities Disregarded.


 


In determining whether
the Holders of the required aggregate principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Securities
owned by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, for the
purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Securities
which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Also, subject to the foregoing,
only Securities outstanding at the time shall be considered in any such determination.


 


Section 1.16         USA
Patriot Act.


 


The parties hereto
acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order
to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies
each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account. The parties to this Indenture agree that they
shall provide the Trustee with such information as they may request in order to satisfy the requirements of the USA Patriot Act.


 


Section 1.17         Force
Majeure.


 


In no event shall the
Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused
by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts
of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or
malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall
use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable
under the circumstances.

Section 1.18         Calculations.


 


Except as otherwise
provided herein, the Company will be responsible for making all calculations called for under this Indenture or the Securities.
The Company will make all such calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, its calculations will be final and binding
on the Holders. The Company will provide a schedule of its calculations to the Trustee and the Trustee is entitled to rely conclusively
upon the accuracy of such calculations without independent verification. The Trustee will deliver a copy of such schedule to any
Holder upon the written request of such Holder.

(24)        any
other terms of the Securities of the series or any of them.


 


All Securities of any
one series shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and the rate or rates of interest, if any, and Stated Maturity,
the date from which interest, if any, shall accrue and except as may otherwise be provided by the Company in or pursuant to one
or more Board Resolutions and set forth in such Officer’s Certificate or in any indenture or indentures supplemental hereto
pertaining to such series of Securities. All Securities of any one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise
so provided by the Company, a series may be reopened for issuances of additional Securities of such series.


 


If any of the terms
of the Securities of any series were established by action taken by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, the Board Resolution shall
be delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officer’s Certificate setting forth the terms of such series.


 


Section 3.02        Denominations.


 


Unless otherwise established
with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 3.01, the Securities of each series denominated in Dollars shall be issuable
in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. Securities not denominated in
Dollars shall be issuable in such denominations as are established with respect to such Securities pursuant to Section 3.01.


 


Section 3.03        Securities
in Foreign Countries.


 


Whenever this Indenture
provides for (i) any action by, or the determination of any of the rights of, Holders of Securities of any series in which not
all of such Securities are denominated in the same currency, or (ii) any distribution to Holders of Securities, in the absence
of any provision to the contrary in the form of Security of any particular series, any amount in respect of any Security denominated
in a currency other than United States dollars shall be treated for any such action or distribution as that amount of United States
dollars that could be obtained for such amount on such reasonable basis of exchange and as of the record date with respect to registered
Securities of such series (if any) for such action, determination of rights or distribution (or, if there shall be no applicable
record date, such other date reasonably proximate to the date of such action, determination of rights or distribution) as the Company
may specify in a written notice to the Trustee or, in the absence of such written notice, as the Trustee may determine.

Section 3.04        Execution,
Authentication, Delivery and Dating.


 


The Securities shall
be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its President, its Chief Operating Officer or one of its Executive
Vice Presidents and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the
Securities may be manual or facsimile.


 


Securities bearing
the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery
of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.


 


At any time and from
time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series, executed by
the Company, to the Trustee for authentication, and, provided that the Board Resolution or Resolutions and Officer’s Certificate
or supplemental indenture or indentures with respect to such Securities referred to in Section 3.01 and a Company Order for the
authentication and delivery of such Securities, has been delivered to the Trustee, the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order
and subject to the provisions hereof of such Securities shall authenticate and deliver such Securities.


 


The Trustee shall not
be required to authenticate or to cause an Authenticating Agent to authenticate any Securities if the issue of such Securities
pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under the Securities and
this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not acceptable to the Trustee or 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.


 


Each Security shall
be dated the date of its authentication.


 


No Security shall be
entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Security a
certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for in Section 2.02 or 6.12 executed by or on behalf of the
Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence,
and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.


 


Section 3.05        Temporary
Securities.


 


Pending the preparation
of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute and deliver to the Trustee and, upon Company Order the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, in the manner provided in Section 3.04, temporary Securities of such series which are printed,
lithographed, typewritten, photocopied or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the
definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form without coupons and with such appropriate insertions,
omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers of the Company executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively
evidenced by their execution of such Securities. In the case of Securities of any series, such temporary Securities may be in global
form.


 


Except in the case
of temporary Securities in global form, which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions thereof, if temporary Securities
of any series are issued, the Company shall cause definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay.
After the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the temporary Securities of such series, if any, shall be exchangeable
upon request for definitive Securities of such series containing identical terms and provisions upon surrender of the temporary
Securities of such series at an office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 10.02, without
charge to any Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of
authorized denominations of the same series containing identical terms and provisions. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01 with respect to a temporary global Security, until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in
all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series.

Section 3.06        Registration,
Transfer and Exchange.


 


With respect to the
Securities of each series, if any, the Company shall cause to be kept, at an office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant
to Section 10.02, a register (each such register being herein sometimes referred to as the “Security Register”) in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of the Securities
of each series and of transfers of the Securities of such series. In the event that the Trustee shall not be the Security Registrar,
it shall have the right to examine the Security Register at all reasonable times. [            ]
is hereby initially appointed as Security Registrar for each series of Securities. In the event that the Trustee shall cease to
be Security Registrar with respect to a series of Securities, the Trustee shall have the right to examine the Security Register
for such series at all reasonable times.


 


Upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any Security of any series at any office or agency of the Company maintained for such series pursuant
to Section 10.02, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee
or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding and containing identical terms and provisions.


 


At the option of the
Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series containing identical terms and provisions,
in any authorized denominations, and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at
any such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.


 


Notwithstanding the
foregoing, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, any global Security of any series shall be exchangeable
for Securities of such series only if (i) the Securities Depository is at any time unwilling or unable or ineligible to continue
as Securities Depository and a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of the date the Company is so
notified in writing, (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order to the effect that such global Security
shall be so exchangeable, or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Securities and the Company
or the Depository shall request such exchange. If the beneficial owners of interests in a global Security are entitled to exchange
such interests for Securities of such series and of like tenor and principal amount of any authorized form and denomination, as
specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on
which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee definitive Securities of that series in aggregate
principal amount equal to the principal amount of such global Security, executed by the Company. On or after the earliest date
on which such interests may be so exchanged, such global Security shall be surrendered from time to time by the U.S. Depository
or such other depository as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto, and in accordance with instructions given
to the Trustee and the U.S. Depository or such other depository, as the case may be (which instructions shall be in writing but
need not comply with Section 1.02 or be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel), as shall be specified in the Company Order with
respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or in part, for definitive
Securities of the same series without charge. The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange for each
portion of such surrendered global Security, a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized
denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such global Security to be exchanged; provided, however, that no such exchanges
may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of such series to be
redeemed and ending on the relevant Redemption Date. Promptly following any such exchange in part, such global Security shall be
returned by the Trustee to such Depository or the U.S. Depository, as the case may be, or such other Depository or U.S. Depository
referred to above in accordance with the instructions of the Company referred to above. If a Security is issued in exchange for
any portion of a global Security after the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on (i) any
Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii)
any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of
interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, interest will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date
for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such Security, but will be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date
for payment, as the case may be, only to the Person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such global Security is payable
in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.


 




    	 	- 16 -	 



     


    

 


All Securities endorsed
thereon issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company evidencing
the same debt, and entitling the Holders thereof to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Securities surrendered upon such
registration of transfer or exchange.


 


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


 


No service charge shall
be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, redemption or conversion of Securities, but the Company may require payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer
or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.05, 9.06 or 11.07 not involving any transfer.


 


Except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, the Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange
any Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the selection for redemption
of Securities of such series under Section 11.03 and ending at the close of business on the day of such selection, or (ii) to register
the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except in the case of any Security to
be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed, or (iii) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security
which, in accordance with its terms specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, has been surrendered for repayment at the option
of the Holder, except the portion, if any, of such Security not to be repaid.


 


Section 3.07        Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.


 


If any mutilated Security
is surrendered to the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 3.07, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series containing identical terms and of like principal
amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.


 


If there be delivered
to the Company and to the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and (ii)
such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the
absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall
execute and upon its request in a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series containing identical terms and of like principal
amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.


 


Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07, in case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about
to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.


 


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


 


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


 


The provisions of this
Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

Section 3.08        Payment
of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.


 


Interest on any Security
which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose
name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date
for such interest.


 


Any interest on any
Security of any series which shall be payable, but shall not be punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date
for such Security (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant
Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election
in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below:


 


(1)         The
Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities affected (or their respective
Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest,
which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest
proposed to be paid on each such Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit
with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or
shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment. Money will
be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. The Company also
shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than
10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the
proposed payment. The Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Company shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such
Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be sent to each Holder of such Securities at his address as it appears
in the Security Register not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted
Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been sent as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons
in whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special
Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2).


 


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


 


For any Securities
of any series that bear interest and are issued in global form, the Company shall make through the Paying Agent, all payments of
principal and interest on the Securities in immediately available funds to the Depository or its nominee, in accordance with the
applicable procedures of the Depository. At the option of the Company, interest on Securities of any series that bear interest
that are not in global form, may be paid through the Paying Agent by mailing a check to the address of the person entitled thereto
as such address shall appear in the Security Register.


 


Subject to the foregoing
provisions of this Section and Section 3.06, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in
exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were
carried by such other Security.


 


Section 3.09        Persons
Deemed Owners.


 


Prior to due presentment
of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal
of (and premium, if any), and (subject to Sections 3.06 and 3.08) interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to, such Security
and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not any payment with respect to such Security be overdue, and neither the Company,
the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section 3.10         Cancellation.


 


All Securities surrendered
for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered
to any Person other than the Trustee or the Security Registrar, be delivered to the Trustee or the Security Registrar, and any
such Securities and Securities surrendered directly to the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such purpose shall be promptly
cancelled by the Trustee or the Security Registrar, as the case may be. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee or the
Security Registrar for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have
acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee or the Security Registrar,
as the case may be. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in
this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture or as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01. All cancelled
Securities held by the Trustee shall be retained by the Trustee and disposed in accordance with its customary practices. The Trustee
upon written request shall promptly notify the Company of all cancelled Securities.


 


Section 3.11         Computation
of Interest.


 


Except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed
on the basis of 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.


 


Section 3.12         Cusip
Numbers.


 


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

of Securities of such series herein expressly provided for and any right to receive Additional Amounts, as provided in Section 10.04),
and the Trustee, on receipt of an Officer’s Certificate, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments

and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii)
or (iii) above, has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose, a sum of money
in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee

Section 4.02         Application
of Trust Money.


 


Subject to the provisions
of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 or this section 4.02 shall

directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the
Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and any interest or any Additional Amounts for whose payment such
money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required
by law.


 


All monies deposited
with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 (and held by it or any Paying Agent) for the payment of Securities subsequently converted
shall be returned to the Company upon Company Request.


 


Section 4.03         Satisfaction,
Discharge and Defeasance of Securities of Any Series.

Company has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee, as trust funds in trust for such purpose, an amount sufficient
to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Securities of such series for principal (and premium, if any),
any Additional Amounts, and interest to the Stated Maturity or any Redemption Date as contemplated by the penultimate paragraph
of this Section 4.03, as the case may be; or


 




    	 	- 20 -	 



     


    

 


(ii)         with
respect to any Series of Securities which are denominated in United States dollars, the Company has deposited or caused to be deposited
with the Trustee, as obligations in trust for such purpose, such amount of direct obligations of, or obligations the timely payment
of the principal of and interest on which are fully guaranteed by, the United States of America and which are not callable at the
option of the issuer thereof as will, together with the income to accrue thereon without consideration of any reinvestment thereof,
be sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Securities of such series for principal (and premium,
if any), any Additional Amounts, and interest to the stated Maturity or any Redemption Date as contemplated by the penultimate
paragraph of this Section 4.03; or


 


(B)         the
Company has properly fulfilled such other means of satisfaction and discharge as is specified, as contemplated by Section 3.01,
to be applicable to the Securities of such series; and

Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series;
and


 


(3)          the
Company has delivered to the Trustee a certificate signed by a nationally recognized firm of Independent Public Accountants certifying
as to the sufficiency of the amounts deposited pursuant to subsections (A) (i) or (ii) of this Section for payment of the principal
(and premium, if any) and interest on the dates such payments are due, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel,
each such Certificate and opinion stating that no Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become
an Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall have occurred and all conditions precedent herein provided for relating
to the satisfaction and discharge of the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Securities of any such series have been complied
with; and


 


(4)          the
Company has delivered to the Trustee


 


(A)         an
opinion of independent counsel, which may be based upon a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service that the holders of the Securities
of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit, defeasance
and discharge and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times, as would
have been the case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred; and


 


(B)         if
the Securities of such series are then listed on a national securities exchange, an Opinion of Counsel that the Securities of such
series will not be delisted as a result of the exercise of this option.


 


Any deposits with the
Trustee referred to in subsection (1) (A) of this Section shall be irrevocable. If any Outstanding Securities of such series are
to be redeemed prior to their Stated Maturity, whether pursuant to any optional redemption or repayment provisions or in accordance
with any mandatory sinking fund requirement, the Company shall make arrangements for the giving of notice of redemption by the
Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company.


 


Upon the satisfaction
of the conditions set forth in this Section 4.03 with respect to all the Outstanding Securities of any series, the terms and conditions
of such series, including the terms and conditions with respect thereto set forth in this Indenture, other than the provisions
of Sections 3.06, 3.07, and 10.02, other than the right of Holders of such series to receive, from the trust fund described in
this Section, payment of the principal (and premium, if any) of, the interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to such
Securities when such payments are due, other than any right of conversion of such Securities and the rights, powers, duties and
immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s obligations related thereto, shall no longer be binding upon, or applicable
to, the Company except those responsibilities and obligations which by the terms of the Indenture survive the termination of the
Indenture; provided that the Company shall not be discharged from any payment obligations in respect of Securities of such series
which are deemed not to be Outstanding under clause (iii) of the definition thereof if such obligations continue to be valid obligations
of the Company under applicable law.

Section 5.02         Acceleration
of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.


 


Unless the Board Resolution
or supplemental indenture establishing such series provides otherwise, if an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified
in Section 5.01(6) or 5.01(7)) with respect to Securities of any series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing, then
the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the
principal of all the Securities of that series, or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the Securities of that series,
to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders), and upon
any such declaration such principal or such lesser amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, shall become
immediately due and payable. Unless the Board Resolution or supplemental indenture establishing such series provides otherwise,
if an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(6) or 5.01(7) with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding
occurs, the principal amount of all the Securities of that series (or, if any Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount
Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified by the terms thereof), together with accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee
or any Holder, become immediately due and payable.


 


At any time after such
a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment
of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of not less than a majority
in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind
and annul such declaration and its consequences if


 


(1)          the
Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay


 


(A)         all
overdue installments of interest on and any Additional Amounts payable in respect of all Securities of such series,


 


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


 


(C)         to
the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue installments of interest or any Additional Amounts at
the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, and


 


(D)         all
sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel as provided in Section 6.07 hereof; and


 


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


 


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


 


Section 5.03         Collection
of Indebtedness and Suits For Enforcement By Trustee.


 


The Company covenants
that if:


 


(1)          default
is made in the payment of any installment of interest on or any Additional Amounts payable in respect of any Security when such
interest or Additional Amounts shall have become due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or


 


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


 


then the Company will pay to it, for the
benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium,
if any) and interest or Additional Amounts, if any, with interest upon the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and, to the
extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest or any Additional Amounts,
at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient
to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel.


 




    	 	- 23 -	 



     


    

 


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


 


If an Event of Default
with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce
its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall
deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in
this Indenture or such Securities or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.


 


Section 5.04         Trustee
May File Proofs of Claim.


 


In case of the pendency
of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial
proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor
or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for
the payment of any overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,


 


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


 


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


 


and any custodian, receiver, assignee,
trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder
to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that 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 reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07.


 


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


 


Section 5.05         Trustee
May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.


 


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

Section 5.06         Application
of Money or Property Collected.


 


Subject to the provisions
of Article Four and Article Thirteen, any money or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied
in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money or property on
account of principal (and premium, if any), interest or any Additional Amounts, upon presentation of the Securities, and the notation
thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:


 


FIRST: To the payment
of all amounts due the Trustee, its agents and any predecessor Trustee under Section 6.07;


 


SECOND: To the payment
of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest or any Additional Amounts
payable in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority
of any kind, according to the aggregate amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any), interest
or any Additional Amounts, respectively; and


 


THIRD: The balance,
if any, to the Company or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.


 


Section 5.07         Limitation
on Suits.


 


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


 


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


 


(2)          the
Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written request to
the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;


 


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


 


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


 


(5)          no
direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series;


 


it being understood and intended that no
one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this
Indenture or any Security to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such Holders or Holders of Securities of any
other series, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this
Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders.


 


Section 5.08         Unconditional
Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium, Interest and Additional Amounts.


 


Notwithstanding any
other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive
payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 3.06 and 3.08) interest on or any Additional Amounts
in respect of such Security on the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities specified in such Security (or, in the case of redemption,
on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without
the consent of such Holder.

Section 5.09         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 the
Company, the Trustee and each such Holder shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively
to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and each such Holder shall continue
as though no such proceeding had been instituted.


 


Section 5.10         Rights
and Remedies Cumulative.


 


Except as otherwise
provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of
Section 3.07, 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, to the extent permitted by law, shall be cumulative and in addition to
every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment
of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate
right or remedy.


 


Section 5.11         Delay
or Omission Not Waiver.


 


No delay or omission
of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair
any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy
given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to 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 5.12         Control
By Holders.


 


Subject to Section
6.03(5), the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct
the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power
conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that:


 


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


 


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


 


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


 


Section 5.13         Waiver
of Past Defaults.


 


The Holders of not
less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities
of such series waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default:


 


(1)          in
the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on or Additional Amounts payable in respect of any Security of
such series, or


 


(2)          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 Outstanding Security of such series affected.


 


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

Section 5.14         Waiver
of Stay or Extension Laws.


 


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


 


Article
Six


 


THE TRUSTEE


 


Section 6.01         Certain
Duties and Responsibilities.


 


(1)          The
duties and responsibilities of the Trustee shall be as provided by the Trust Indenture Act. Without limiting the foregoing, except
during the continuance of an Event of Default,


 


(A)         the
Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and


 


(B)         in
the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to
be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to
the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts
stated therein).


 


In case an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree
of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or
her own affairs.


 


(2)          No
provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent
failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:


 


(A)         this
subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of subsection (1) of this Section 6.01;


 


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


 


(C)         the
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
direction of the Holders pursuant to Section 5.12, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect
to the Securities of such series;


 


(D)         the
Trustee, when acting in such capacity, shall not be liable in respect of any payment (as to the correctness of amount, entitlement
to receive or any other matters relating to payment) or notice effected by the Company or any Paying Agent or any records maintained
by any co-Registrar with respect to the Securities; and


 


(E)         if
any party fails to deliver a notice relating to an event the fact of which, pursuant to this Indenture, requires notice to be sent
to the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely on its failure to receive such notice as reason to act as if no such event occurred.


 




    	 	- 27 -	 



     


    

 


Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial
liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if an adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision
of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject
to the provisions of this Section.


 


Section 6.02         Notice
of Defaults.


 


Within 90 days after
the occurrence of any default hereunder with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit to the Holders
in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, notice of such default hereunder known to
a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, unless such default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the
case of a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect
to, any Security of such series or in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to Securities of such series, the
Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust
committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is
in the interests of the Holders of such series.


 


Section 6.03         Certain
Rights of Trustee.


 


Subject to the provisions
of Section 6.01:


 


(1)          the
Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement,

believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

evidenced by a Board Resolution or Board Resolutions;

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


 


(4)          the
Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete
authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance
thereon;


 


(5)          the
Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction
of any of the Holders of Securities of any series pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee
security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in
compliance with such request or direction;


 


(6)          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 or other paper or document, but the Trustee,
in its discretion, 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 Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost to the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability
of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;

or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed
with due care by it hereunder;


 


(8)          the
Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, omitted to be taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by
it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;


 


(9)          the
Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of any default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a default or Event of Default
is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the
Securities and this Indenture;


 


(10)        the
rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified,
are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and
other Person employed to act hereunder;


 


(11)        in
no event shall the Trustee be liable for special, punitive, indirect, consequential or incidental loss or damage of any kind whatsoever
(including lost profits), even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage; and


 


(12)        any
permissive right or authority granted to the Trustee in this Indenture shall not be construed as a mandatory duty.


 


Section 6.04         Not
Responsible For Recitals or Issuance of Securities.


 


The recitals contained
herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the
Company and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities, except that the Trustee represents that
it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Securities and perform its obligations hereunder
and that the statements made by it in a Statement of Eligibility and Qualification on Form T-l supplied to the Company are true
and accurate, subject to the qualifications set forth therein. The Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall not be accountable
for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.


 


Section 6.05         May
Hold Securities.


 


The Trustee, any Authenticating
Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other Person that may be an agent of the Trustee or the Company, in its

Trust Indenture Act, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating
Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other Person.

Held In Trust.


 


Money held by the Trustee
in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law and shall be held uninvested. The

The Company agrees:


 


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


 




    	 	- 29 -	 



     


    

 


(2)          except

(c)          The
Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal

(d)          If
at any time:


 


(1)         the
Trustee shall fail to comply with the obligations imposed upon it under Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act after written
request therefor by the Company or by any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months,
or


 


(2)         the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.08 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or
by any such Holder of a Security, or


 


(3)         the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property
shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose
of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,


 


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


 


(e)          If
the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any
cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by or pursuant to Board Resolutions, shall promptly appoint
a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor
Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be
only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of
Section 6.10. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor
Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed
shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.10, become
the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed
by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company
or the Holders of Securities and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.10, any Holder of a Security who has
been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly
situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities
of such series.


 


(f)          The
Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and
each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series by sending written notice of such event to
the Holders of Securities, if any, of such series as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Each notice shall
include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust
Office.


 


Notwithstanding replacement
of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.09, the Company’s obligations under Section 6.07 will continue for the benefit
of the retiring Trustee.


 


Section 6.10         Acceptance

the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act,
deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request
of the Company and/or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument

case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the
Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and
deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain
such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights,
powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment
of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such
provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring
Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue
to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary
to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing
herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust, that each such Trustee shall
be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such
Trustee and that no Trustee shall be responsible for any notice given to, or received by, or any act or failure to act on the part
of any other Trustee hereunder, and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of
the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein, such retiring Trustee shall with respect to the Securities
of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates have no further responsibility for the exercise
of rights and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture other than
as hereinafter expressly set forth, and each such successor Trustee without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested
with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to
which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring
Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture,
the property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which
the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.


 


(c)          Upon
request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in
and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section,
as the case may be.

successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified
and eligible under this Article.

Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.


 


Any corporation into
which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of
the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be
otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part
of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office,
any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the
Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.


 


Section 6.12         Appointment
of Authenticating Agent.


 


The Trustee may appoint
an Authenticating Agent or Authenticating Agents, which may be an Affiliate of the Company, with respect to one or more series
of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of that or those series issued
upon original issue or exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.07, and Securities
so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated
by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the
Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery
on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent.


 




    	 	- 32 -	 



     


    

 


Each Authenticating
Agent shall be acceptable to the Company.


 


The Company agrees
to pay each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section.


 


The provisions of Sections
3.09, 6.04 and 6.05 shall be applicable to each Authenticating Agent.


 


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


 


This certificate represents
Securities of the series designated herein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.


 


	Dated:  [      ]	 	[                      ],
	 	 	not in its individual capacity but solely as Trustee
	 	 	 
	 	 	By:	        
	 	 	As Authenticating Agent
	 	 	 
	 	 	By:	 
	 	 	Authorized Signatory


 


If all of the Securities
of any series may not be originally issued at one time, and if the Trustee does not have an office capable of authenticating Securities
upon original issuance located in a Place of Payment where the Company wishes to have Securities of such series authenticated upon
original issuance, the Trustee, if so requested in writing (which writing need not comply with Section 1.02) by the Company, shall
appoint in accordance with this Section an Authenticating Agent having an office in a Place of Payment designated by the Company
with respect to such series of Securities.

of Office or Agency.


 


The Company will maintain
in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency where Securities of such series may be presented or surrendered
for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and
demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give
prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time
the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof,
such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, at the
place specified for the purpose pursuant to Section 3.01, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all
such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands, provided, however, no service of legal process on the Company may be made
at any office of the Trustee.


 


The Company may also
from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or
surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation
or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of their obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment
for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation
or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01, the Company hereby designates as the Place of Payment for each series the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.


 


Section 10.03         Money
For Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust.


 


If the Company shall
at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal
of (and premium, if any), or interest on, any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of
the Person entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such
sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action
or failure so to act.


 


Whenever the Company
shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, it will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of (and
premium, if any), or interest on, any Securities of that series, deposit with any Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal
(and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such
principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its
action or failure so to act.


 


The Company will cause
each Paying Agent for any series of Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which
such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:


 


(1)          comply
with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as Paying Agent;


 


(2)          hold
all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Securities of that series in trust
for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein
provided;


 


(3)          give
the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any
payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of that series; and


 




    	 	- 38 -	 



     


    

 


(4)          at
any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all
sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.


 


The Company may at
any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company
Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be
held by the Trustee upon the same terms as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon
such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to
such money.


 


Except as otherwise
provided hereby or pursuant hereto, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust
for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest and Additional Amounts on any Security of any series and
remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be paid
to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such
Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of
the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon
cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense
of the Company cause to be published once, in an English language newspaper of general circulation, published on each Business
Day, in each Place of Payment for such series or to be sent to Holders of Securities for such series, or both, notice that such
money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication
or delivery nor shall it be later than two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable,
any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.


 


Section 10.04         Additional
Amounts.


 


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


 


Subject to applicable
unclaimed property laws, except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant hereto, if the Securities of a series provide for the
Payment of Additional Amounts, at least 10 days prior to the first Interest Payment Date with respect to such series of Securities
(or if the Securities of that series shall not bear interest prior to Maturity, the first day on which a payment of principal (and
premium, if any, is made), and at least 10 days prior to each date of payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest if
there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned Officer’s Certificate, the Company
will furnish the Trustee and the principal Paying Agent or Paying Agents, if other than the Trustee, an Officer’s Certificate
instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent or Paying Agents whether such payment of principal (and premium, if any) of or interest
on the Securities of that series shall be made to Holders of Securities of that series who are United States Aliens without withholding
for or on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge described in the Securities of that series. If any such withholding
shall be required, then such Officer’s Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to be withheld on
such payments to such Holders and the Company agrees to pay to the Trustee or such Paying Agent the Additional Amounts required
by this Section. The Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any
loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in connection with
actions taken or omitted by any of them in reliance on any Officer’s Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section.

(b)          The
Company will deliver to the Trustee as soon as possible, and in any event, within five days after the occurrence thereof, written
notice of any event which after notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default.


 


Section 10.06         Payment
of Taxes and Other Claims.

of the Company and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.


 


Section 10.08         Waiver
of Certain Covenants.


 


Except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of such series, the Company may omit in any particular instance to comply

the Securities of any series if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally
waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition
except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the
duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES


 


Section 11.01         Applicability
of Article.


 


Redemption of Securities
of any series at the option of the Company as permitted or required by the terms of such Securities shall be made in accordance
with the terms of such Securities and (except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant hereto or as specified as by Section 3.01)
this Article.


 


Section 11.02         Election
To Redeem; Notice To Trustee.


 


The election of the
Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by Board Resolution or in such other manner specified as contemplated by Section
3.01. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of the Securities of any series, with the same issue date, interest
rate and Stated Maturity, the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter
notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities
of such series to be redeemed.


 


Section 11.03         Selection
By Trustee of Securities To Be Redeemed.


 


If less than all the
Securities of any series with the same issue date, interest rate, Stated Maturity and other terms are to be redeemed, the particular
Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the Outstanding
Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by lot or such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and
appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal amount of Securities of such series;
provided, however, that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount of a Security of such series
not redeemed to less than the minimum denomination for a Security of such series established herein pursuant hereto.


 


If any Convertible
Security selected for partial redemption is converted in part before termination of the conversion right with respect to the portion
of the Security so selected, the converted portion of such Security shall be deemed (so far as may be) to be the portion selected
for redemption. Securities which have been converted during a selection of Securities to be redeemed shall be treated by the Trustee
as Outstanding for the purpose of such selection.


 


The Trustee shall promptly
notify the Company and the Security Registrar (if other than itself) in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and,
in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.


 


For all purposes of
this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in
the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal of such Securities which has
been or is to be redeemed.


 


Section 11.04         Notice
of Redemption.


 


Notice of redemption
shall be given in the manner provided in Section 1.06, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, unless
a shorter period is specified in the Securities to be redeemed, to the Holders of Securities to be redeemed (provided notice may
be given more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date in connection with a defeasance or the satisfaction and discharge of the
series). Failure to give notice by sending in the manner herein provided to the Holder of any Securities designated for redemption
as a whole or in part, or any defect in the notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the
redemption of any other Securities or portion thereof.


 


Any notice that is
sent to the Holder of any Securities in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether
or not such Holder receives the notice.


 




    	 	- 41 -	 



     


    

 


All notices of redemption
shall state:


 


(1)         the
Redemption Date,


 


(2)         the
Redemption Price,


 


(3)         if
less than all Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption,
the principal amount) of the particular Securities to be redeemed,


 


(4)         in
case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that on and after the Redemption
Date, upon surrender of such Security, the Holder of such Security will receive, without charge, a new Security or Securities of
authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed,


 


(5)         in
the case of Convertible Securities, the Conversion Price then in effect, the date on which the right to convert the principal amount
of the Securities or the portions thereof to be redeemed will terminate and the place or places where such Securities may be surrendered
for conversion,


 


(6)         that
on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and that interest
thereon and Additional Amounts, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after said date,


 


(7)         the
place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price,


 


(8)         that
the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case, and


 


(9)         the
CUSIP number, if any.


 


Notice of redemption
of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by
the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, provided, however, that if delivery is to be made by the Trustee
the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least five Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the
Trustee) before notice of redemption is required to be sent the redemption notice and a request for the Trustee to make such delivery.


 


Section 11.05       Deposit
of Redemption Price.


 


On or prior to 10:00
a.m., New York City time on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the
Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money sufficient
to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on and any
Additional Amounts with respect thereto, all the Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date.


 


If any Convertible
Security or portion thereof called for redemption is converted in accordance with the terms of such Convertible Security, any money
deposited with the Trustee or so segregated and held in trust for the redemption of such Security or portion thereof shall (subject
to any right of the Holder of the Security on a Regular Record Date preceding such conversion to receive interest) be paid to the
Company upon Company Request or, if then held by the Company, shall be discharged from such trust.


 


Section 11.06       Securities
Payable on Redemption Date.


 


Notice of redemption
having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption
Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price
and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance
with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company through the Paying Agent at the Redemption Price, together with accrued
interest (or any Additional Amounts) to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on Securities whose
Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor
Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions
of Section 3.08.


 




    	 	- 42 -	 



     


    

 


If any Security called
for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid,
bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security.


 


Section 11.07         Securities
Redeemed in Part.


 


Any Security that is
not a global security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at any office or agency of the Company maintained
for that purpose pursuant to Section 10.02 (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument
of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized
in writing) and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without
service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, containing identical terms and provisions, of any authorized denomination
as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal
of the Security so surrendered.


 


Section 11.08         Conversion
Arrangements on Call for Redemption.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Indenture, in connection with any redemption of Convertible Securities of any series, the Company,
by an agreement with one or more investment bankers or other purchasers, may arrange for such purchasers to purchase all such Convertible
Securities called for redemption (the “Called Securities”) which are either (i) surrendered for redemption or
(ii) not duly surrendered for redemption or conversion prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date, and to convert the
same into shares of Common Stock, by the purchasers’ depositing with the Trustee (acting as Paying Agent with respect to
the deposit of such amount and as conversion agent with respect to the conversion of such Called Securities), in trust for the
Holders of the Called Securities, on or prior to the Redemption Date in the manner agreed to by the Company and such purchasers,
an amount sufficient to pay the Redemption Price, payable by the Company on redemption of such Called Securities. In connection
with any such arrangement for purchase and conversion, the Trustee as Paying Agent shall pay on or after the Redemption Date such
amounts so deposited by the purchasers in exchange for Called Securities surrendered for redemption prior to the close of business
on the Redemption Date and for all Called Securities surrendered after such Redemption Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Article Eleven, the obligation of the Company to pay the Redemption Price of such Called Securities shall be
satisfied and discharged to the extent such amount is so paid by such purchasers. However, nothing in this Section 11.08 shall
in any way relieve the Company of the obligation to pay such Redemption Price on all Called Securities to the extent such amount
is not so paid by said purchasers. For all purposes of this Indenture, any Called Securities surrendered by the Holders for redemption,
and any Called Securities not duly surrendered for redemption or conversion prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date,
shall be deemed acquired by such purchasers from such Holders and surrendered by such purchasers for conversion and shall in all
respects be deemed to have been converted, all as of immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date, subject
to the deposit by the Purchasers of the above amount as aforesaid. Nothing in this Section 11.08 shall in any way limit the right
of any Holder of a Security to convert his Security pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and of such Security at any time prior
to the close of business on the Redemption Date applicable thereto.

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


 




    	 	- 43 -	 



     


    

 


The minimum amount
of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking
fund payment”, and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of such series is
herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series,
the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.02. Each sinking fund payment
shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series.


 


Section 12.02         Satisfaction

The Company may, in
satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series to be made pursuant to

than any of such Securities previously called for redemption or any of such Securities in respect of which cash shall have been
released to the Company), and (2) apply as a credit Securities of such series which have been redeemed either at the election of
the Company pursuant to the terms of such series of Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments
pursuant to the terms of such Securities, provided that such series of Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities
shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption
through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.


 


Section 12.03         Redemption
of Securities For Sinking Fund.


 


Not less than 90 days
prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that
series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be
satisfied by delivering and crediting of Securities of that series pursuant to Section 12.02, and the optional amount, if any,
to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to
be so credited and not theretofore delivered. If such Officer’s Certificate shall specify an optional amount to be added
in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, the Company shall thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein
specified. Not less than 60 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed
upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.03 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given
in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.04. Such notice having been duly given, the
redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.06 and 11.07.

SUBORDINATION


 


Section 13.01         Securities
Subordinated to Senior Indebtedness.


 


The Company covenants
and agrees, and each Holder of Securities, by its acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the indebtedness evidenced
by the Securities and the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on and any Additional Amounts payable
in respect thereof is hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, in right of payment
to the prior payment in full of Senior Indebtedness.


 




    	 	- 44 -	 



     


    

 


Anything in this Indenture
or in the Securities of any series to the contrary notwithstanding, the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities shall be subordinate
and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to all Senior Indebtedness:


 


(1)          In
the event of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, and any receivership, liquidation, reorganization, arrangement or other
similar proceedings in connection therewith, relative to the Company or to its property, and in the event of any proceedings for
voluntary liquidation, dissolution or other winding-up of the Company, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, then
the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all principal, premium and interest on or other
amounts in respect of, all Senior Indebtedness before the Holders of the Securities are entitled to receive any payment on account
of principal, premium, if any, interest or Additional Amounts upon the Securities, and to that end (but subject to the power of
a court of competent jurisdiction to make other equitable provisions reflecting the rights conferred in the Securities upon Senior
Indebtedness and the Holders thereof with respect to the subordinated indebtedness represented by the Securities and the Holders
hereof by a lawful plan of reorganization under applicable bankruptcy law) the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled
to receive for application in payment thereof any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash or property
or securities, which may be payable or deliverable in any such proceedings in respect of the Securities after giving effect to
any concurrent payment or distribution in respect of such Senior Indebtedness, except securities which are subordinate and junior
in right of payment to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness then outstanding;


 


(2)          In
the event that any Security of any series is declared or otherwise becomes due and payable before its expressed maturity because
of the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder (under circumstances when the provisions of the foregoing clause (1) or
the following clause (3) shall not be applicable), the holders of Senior Indebtedness outstanding at the time such Security
so becomes due and payable because of such occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder shall, so long as such declaration has not
been rescinded and annulled pursuant to Section 5.02, be entitled to receive payment in full of all principal of, and premium
and interest on or other amounts in respect of, all such Senior Indebtedness before the Holders of the Securities of such series
are entitled to receive any payment on account of principal of, premium, if any, or interest and Additional Amounts on the Securities
of such series. However, nothing herein shall prevent the Holders of Securities from seeking any remedy allowed at law or at equity
so long as any judgment or decree obtained thereby makes provision for enforcing this clause; and


 


(3)          In
the event that any default shall occur and be continuing with respect to any Senior Indebtedness permitting the holders of such
Senior Indebtedness to accelerate the maturity thereof, if either


 


(A)         notice
of such default, in writing or by telegram, shall have been given to the Company and to the Trustee, provided that judicial proceedings
shall be commenced in respect of such default within 180 days in the case of a default in payment of principal or interest and
within 90 days in the case of any other default after the giving of such notice, and provided further that only one such notice
shall be given pursuant to this Section 13.01(3) in any twelve months period, or


 


(B)         judicial
proceedings shall be pending in respect of such default,


 


the Holders of the
Securities and the Trustee for their benefit shall not be entitled to receive any payment on account of principal, premium, if
any, or interest and Additional Amounts thereon (including any such payment which would cause such default) unless payment in full
of all principal of, and premium and interest on or other amounts in respect of, such Senior Indebtedness shall have been made
or provided for. The Trustee, forthwith upon receipt of any notice received by it pursuant to this Section 13.01(3), shall,
as soon as practicable, send a notice thereof to each Holder of Securities at the time outstanding as the names and addresses of
such Holders appear on the Security Register.  In case despite the foregoing provisions, any payment or distribution shall,
in any such event, be paid or delivered to any Holder of the Securities or to the Trustee for their benefit before all Senior Indebtedness
shall have been paid in full, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for and so paid and delivered to the holders
of Senior Indebtedness (or their duly authorized representatives) until all Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full.


 


The Company shall give
written notice to the Trustee within five days after the occurrence of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization,
arrangement or similar proceeding of the Company within the meaning of this Section 13.01. Upon any payment or distribution
of assets of the Company referred to in this Article Thirteen, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 315(a) through
315(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate of the trustee
in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors or other liquidating agent making such payment or distribution,
delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in
such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable
thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article Thirteen.

The Trustee shall be
entitled to conclusively rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a person representing himself to be a holder of Senior
Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior
Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of any such holder). In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that
further evidence is required with respect to the right of any person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment
or distribution pursuant to this Section 13.01, the Trustee may request such person to furnish evidence to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such person, as to the extent to which such person
is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, and as to other facts pertinent to the rights of such person under
this Section 13.01, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such person pending judicial
determination as to the right of such person to receive such payment.


 


Section 13.02         Subrogation.


 


Subject to the payment
in full of all Senior Indebtedness to which the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities is in the circumstances subordinated as
provided in Section 13.01, the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness
to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to such Senior Indebtedness until
all amounts owing on the Securities shall be paid in full. As between the Company, its creditors other than holders of such Senior
Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, no such payment or distribution made to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness
by virtue of this Article Thirteen which otherwise would have been made to the Holders of the Securities shall be deemed to
be a payment by the Company on account of such Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of this Article Thirteen
are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities on the one hand, and
the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.


 


Section 13.03         Obligation
of Company Unconditional.


 


Nothing contained in
this Article Thirteen or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities,


 


(1)          is
intended to or shall impair as between its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of the Securities,
the obligation of the Company which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of (and
premium, if any), interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to, the Securities as and when the same shall become due
and payable in accordance with their terms,


 


(2)          is
intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company other than the holders
of Senior Indebtedness, or


 


(3)          prevents
the Trustee or the Holder of any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under
this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article Thirteen of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect
of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy.


 


Upon any payment or
distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article Thirteen, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities
shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which any such dissolution, winding
up, liquidation or reorganization proceeding affecting the affairs of the Company is pending or upon a certificate of the trustee
in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidating trustee or agent or other person making any payment
or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled
to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company the
amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article Thirteen

of Subordination by Trustee.


 


Each Holder of Securities,
by his or her acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Trustee in his or her behalf to take such action as may be necessary

for any and all such purposes.


 


Section 13.06         Knowledge
of Trustee.


 


Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Article Thirteen or any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge
of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee, or the taking of any
other action by the Trustee, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from
the Company, any Holder of the Securities, any paying agent of the Company or the holder or representative of any class of Senior
Indebtedness.


 


Section 13.07         Trustee’s
Relation to Senior Indebtedness.


 


Except as otherwise
provided in the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article Thirteen with
respect to any Senior Indebtedness at the time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing
in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or
in the Securities of any series, nothing in this Article Thirteen shall apply to or limit claims of or payment to the Trustee
under or pursuant to Sections 5.06 and 6.07.


 


With respect to holders
of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically
set forth in this Article Thirteen, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness
shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders
of Senior Indebtedness and the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver
to Holders, the Company or any other Person monies or assets to which any holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue
of this Article Thirteen or otherwise.


 


No recourse may be
taken with respect to the obligations of the Issuer or the Trustee against the Trustee in its individual capacity.


 


Section 13.08         Rights
of Holders of Senior Indebtedness Not Impaired.


 


No right of any present
or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce the subordination herein shall at any time or in any way be prejudiced or
impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any non-compliance by the Company with the terms, provisions
or covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.


 


This instrument may
be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts
shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
